108: Prejudice in people's hearts is a mountain!
Outside the Heavenly Palace complex.
Everyone watched as Shen Xuansheng took away the entire Heavenly Palace, stunned.
Everyone present had thought about how to obtain the most and best treasures inside, but no one had thought about how to take the entire Heavenly Palace away directly.
The moment Shen Xuansheng retrieved the taixu cauldron, he immediately returned to his Revered Master's side.
"Revered Master, it's all done!"
Originally, this was normal behavior for Shen Xuansheng—finish the job and wrap up.
However, at this very moment.
Everyone's gaze toward Shen Xuansheng changed; it wasn't disgust or hatred, but pity...
"For a long time, all I have heard is that the Jie Sheng Sect Eldest Senior Brother is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness. Even if he encounters a stranger, he will reach out to help, and as long as his Junior Brothers and Junior Sisters call, he will arrive immediately."
"Seeing it today, Jie Sheng Sect Master, you actually made your Disciple do this kind of thing?"
An Expert at the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm looked at the Jie Sheng Sect Master and said with hatred.
As soon as these words were spoken, others seemed to react as well.
That's right!
The information their own factions received couldn't possibly be fake, right? The news over hundreds of years, mutually verified, had long been an indisputable fact.
Now, Shen Xuansheng's actions were completely opposite to his behavior over the past hundred years!
How could a person of unparalleled benevolence and righteousness do such a heinous thing?
They had all heard Shen Xuansheng say to the Jie Sheng Sect Master that it was done, so what did that mean?
This kind of thing was something someone behind the scenes had made Shen Xuansheng do.
Aside from the Jie Sheng Sect Master, his Revered Master, who else could drive Shen Xuansheng to do such things that went against his own will?
"That's right, as someone's Revered Master, to actually force a Disciple to do such a shameless thing is simply, simply... simply shameless!"
"Yes, it's just shameless!"
The Jie Sheng Sect Master listened to these words and looked at Shen Xuansheng with a strange expression.
Shen Xuansheng himself was also bewildered.
If it weren't for the taixu cauldron still being in his hands, he would have even thought that he was the victim.
Everyone, what are you talking about?
"Stop talking nonsense."
"My Disciple has taken away the entire Heavenly Palace, so it seems I have won this time!" The Jie Sheng Sect Master said coldly. Explain? With his status, was there a need to explain? Explaining would only lower his status.
As he spoke, the Jie Sheng Sect Master was about to reach out and take all the bets here.
However, the Palace Revered Master of the Snow God Palace blocked the Jie Sheng Sect Master's hand, looking at the Jie Sheng Sect Master with a smile: "Isn't it a bit too early to say that?"
"Although your Disciple took away the Heavenly Palace, the biggest winner still depends on the innate supreme treasure."
"The Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty took the six paths mirror, and there is one more item. If it is not inside this Heavenly Palace, you cannot be considered the biggest winner, right?"
The Jie Sheng Sect Master couldn't be bothered with nonsense and directly tapped his finger on the center of Shen Xuansheng's forehead.
Suddenly, a killing intent descended between heaven and earth, centering on Shen Xuansheng and spreading in all directions.
*Clang!* The sound of a sword humming pierced the nine heavens.
A black-red blood sword flew out from Shen Xuansheng's body.
The Jie Sheng Sect Master grasped the sword and said calmly: "Now, is that enough?"
Seeing this scene, the other Experts seemed to finally react.
"Damn!"
"I knew it! This guy is a sword user; the god slaying sword must have been obtained by him."
There were other Experts who saw that the god slaying sword came out from inside Shen Xuansheng's body, so this killing intent was naturally also sealed within Shen Xuansheng's body.
Thus, "Sigh, such killing intent, sealed within his own Disciple's body, is truly shameful!"
"That's right, for the sake of a bet, not hesitating to sacrifice one's own Disciple's reputation, forcing one's own Disciple to do such a thing—so what if you won?"
The Snow God Palace Palace Revered Master looked at the god slaying sword in the Jie Sheng Sect Master's hand and took a deep breath, her chest heaving, vast as a misty sea.
"Fine!"
"You win!"
The Jie Sheng Sect Master collected all the bets and took Shen Xuansheng away from the place immediately.
On the side of the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty.
Although they did not get the Dragon vein, they at least guaranteed one innate supreme treasure. Except for Shen Xuansheng, Sima Wangquan was almost the biggest winner—of course, this was only on the surface.
"Why do I feel like this was something Shen Xuansheng did himself?"
Sima Wangquan heard those people's words and was speechless. Have you ever interacted with Shen Xuansheng? Just by relying on the information you received, you define a person? Sooner or later, you will suffer a great loss!
The Snow God Palace Palace Revered Master looked at her distracted Disciple and asked: "What are you thinking about?"
A forced smile appeared on Xue Wujian's face: "Revered Master, I think this should be something Shen Xuansheng did himself, right?"
The Snow God Palace Palace Revered Master shook her head.
"According to the information we have received, Shen Xuansheng would not do such things; it is more like the Jie Sheng Sect Master's methods."
"After all, when the Revered Master gives an order, Shen Xuansheng, who is inherently unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness, would naturally not refuse."
Xue Wujian stared at her Revered Master with wide eyes.
No. Do you all believe the information you received that much? Are you unwilling to even see the truth with your own eyes? What is wrong with everyone?
In fact, one cannot blame Sima Wangquan and Xue Wujian, because in the information they received, many had images left behind, which meant there was not much difference from seeing it with their own eyes.
As the Eldest Senior Brother of a Great Sect out in the world, Shen Xuansheng's whereabouts were naturally under the attention of many factions. After a hundred years of tracking his whereabouts, could they not determine what kind of person he was?
Moreover, the strangers Shen Xuansheng saved could be found easily with their strength; whether it was true or not could be known by just asking. At worst, performing a soul search would be easy.
Therefore, in their eyes, Shen Xuansheng's actions were no different from what happened right before their eyes.
And today's behavior was clearly vastly different from Shen Xuansheng's past actions.
The appearance of such actions must have been directed by someone!
On the Beiming Family side, Bei Mingxue watched with her own eyes as Shen Xuansheng took away the Heavenly Palace: "I just said, Big Brother Shen is definitely not that kind of person."
The Clan Chief of the Beiming Family looked at his daughter.
"Xue'er, what happened inside?"
Bei Mingxue could not help but let tears fall from her eyes and said: "Father, you don't know, when I was in that Heavenly Palace, I was entangled by the Heavenly Thunder of Karmic Obstruction, which attached itself to my Dao Body Origin Essence. If Big Brother Shen hadn't personally peeled off some of my Dao Body Origin Essence and drawn the Heavenly Thunder of Karmic Obstruction into his own body, I would have died long ago."
Bei Mingxue's voice was not lowered, and the people around heard it. They all had a "Look, I wasn't wrong" expression.
"To save someone, he did not hesitate to draw the Heavenly Thunder of Karmic Obstruction into his own body. Such righteousness, how can it be described as anything but unparalleled!"
"Yes!"
"And what is most important? The Jiesheng Sect and the Beiming Family have no relationship! Under these circumstances, for Shen Xuansheng to be able to go to such lengths to save someone is simply, simply... simply the light of the Righteous Path!"
Upon hearing this, the Beiming Clan Chief immediately reached out and placed his hand on Bei Mingxue's wrist, channeling his magic power, and his expression softened: "The Dao Body Origin Essence has indeed been lost, and there are traces of Karmic Obstruction remaining."
"This kid is indeed the same as the information we received. It seems that this time, it is indeed the Jie Sheng Sect Master who is playing tricks."
Bei Mingxue continued: "It's not just that. When I was preparing to leave with Big Brother Shen, the Fire God Son suddenly appeared, wanting to kill and rob. Big Brother Shen and I were already weak, and it was Big Brother Shen who pushed me out and blocked the Fire God Son."
"Big Brother Shen must be seriously injured now!"
"Under these circumstances, for Big Brother Shen's Revered Master to still make him do such a thing, I really don't know how painful Big Brother Shen's heart must be!" Bei Mingxue said with heartache.
Everyone sighed.
"Among the Cultivators of heaven and earth, the one unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness must be Shen Xuansheng!"
"Yes!"
"That's right!"
