44: Because I am not you!

"Oh, what exactly is going on? Just say it!"

Zhang Qingxue asked anxiously.

"Although our Yaochi Immortal Palace is a top Sect in the Southern Continent, we have countless potential rivals! If we get involved with Demonic Cultivators, we'll be doomed forever."

Hearing her Revered Master say this...

Zi Yun was so scared that she quickly told the whole truth.

However, she left out one point.

That is, wherever Chen Xian appeared, Zi Yun glossed over it in one sentence.

It wasn't that she didn't want to be associated with Chen Xian, but rather the result of this man's repeated exhortations this morning.

"After that, I hid in an empty room alone to heal my injuries!"

Bang!

An Elder of Yaochi Immortal Palace angrily slammed the table in front of her to pieces.

"Dammit! The Ye Family actually dared to attack you! They're truly audacious. Do they really think our Yaochi Immortal Palace is a pushover?"

"Sect Master, let's go settle the score with them right now!"

One must know that Zi Yun is the Fairy of their Yaochi Immortal Palace, not only the Sect Master's closed-door Disciple but also the future of their Yaochi Immortal Palace.

If Ye Wentian had really succeeded...

Then the consequences would be unimaginable.

At best, Yaochi Immortal Palace would be bled dry by the Ye Family.

At worst, Zi Yun's reputation would be ruined, and the Sect would be disgraced!

For a Sect of their level, face is everything!

Zhang Qingxue was actually very calm at this moment; she looked at Zi Yun.

"How do you want to handle this?"

Zi Yun thought of what Chen Xian had said.

This morning he said that if Ye Wentian survived, he would definitely throw dirty water on her, intending to confuse the public.

Looking at it now, it really was so.

Zi Yun felt both sorrow for her previous blindness and a sense of indignation.

But the priority now was to wash away the stain on her.

Thinking of this, Zi Yun quickly said, "Revered Master, please go to the Jubei Marquiss Residence immediately. I want to prove my innocence!"

"The headquarters of the Demon Extermination Assembly is now at the City Lord's Mansion!"

Zhang Qingxue led the crowd from Yaochi Immortal Palace, aggressively heading towards the City Lord's Mansion.

Meanwhile...

Chen Xian was already hidden in the room where Zhou Duoer had been before.

Zhou Duoer looked at the people hurrying outside, then at Chen Xian, who wasn't staying in a luxury hotel but was instead huddling here.

She asked suspiciously, "You haven't done something heinous, have you?"

Chen Xian was panting heavily.

He gave a cold snort.

"If I had, it would actually be better!"

If he had done something bad and got caught, that would be normal.

But to be caught when he had done nothing was clearly being framed.

Now, what made him somewhat speechless was that he didn't know which part went wrong.

Was it that cheap second uncle who was a wolf in sheep's clothing and wanted to get rid of him?

Or did someone else frame him?

Chen Xian felt the highest probability was that someone was throwing dirty water on him!

It wasn't until late at night.

A person wearing a black cloak and a large hood appeared in this dilapidated small courtyard.

"Chen Xian, you really are here!"

Hearing this familiar voice, Chen Xian did not relax his guard; instead, he slowly gripped the elephant bone sword at his waist!

Only Li Yu could find this place, but given the special nature of this woman's identity, Chen Xian didn't know for a moment whether he should trust her!

"Don't be nervous, I'm not here to catch you!"

"But except for me, everyone in this city is looking for you!"

"What's the situation outside now? Why do those people want to catch me?"

Chen Xian looked at Li Yu and asked coldly.

"Ye Wentian said he saw you with Demonic Cultivators, saying you're an accomplice of the Demonic Cultivators..."

Chen Xian's expression froze.

That little brat!

But he said persistently, "Everyone couldn't possibly just listen to his side of the story, right?"

"Tsk! In principle, naturally not. Unfortunately, you offended Wang Li. Wang Li is now fully supporting Ye Wentian. Even your second uncle, General Chen Buyu, is powerless now. After all, when it involves Demonic Cultivators, neither the Southern Continent nor our Da Gan Dynasty will tolerate it!"

Li Yu looked at Chen Xian and sighed deeply.

"Sigh, you really are unlucky!"

"If I'm this unlucky, don't you have a share of the credit?"

Hearing Chen Xian say this, Li Yu wasn't annoyed either; instead, she said indifferently, "If I didn't have a conscience and came to tip you off, you probably wouldn't even know how you died."

"This is a dead end now. How are you going to break it?"

Facing Li Yu's question...

Chen Xian, instead, didn't panic.

"What do you think I should do?"

"Since you came, you definitely don't want to give up on me, right?"

These words hit home for Li Yu.

She wouldn't fall in love with this man just because Chen Xian acted as her shield.

But Chen Xian's performance greatly piqued her interest.

Li Yu wanted to see this man's performance after knowing this information.

Unfortunately, the other party didn't fly into a rage but was instead frighteningly calm.

"If it were me, I'd leave here under an assumed name. Find Chen Buyu at the right time for protection!"

"After all, you are innocent. I don't know why Ye Wentian framed you, but Wang Li really wants you dead!"

The Young Master of Tianqi Sect came here originally wanting to show off, but ended up making a huge mess. Not only did he not get his Fiancée back, but he was also beaten to a pulp by his Fiancée's lover, even losing his sword.

Wang Li wanted to kill Chen Xian; both Li Yu and Chen Xian were well aware of this.

As for Chen Xian, he said with a bitter smile, "Ye Wentian wants to kill me, probably because of Zi Yun!"

Although he didn't say it explicitly, this one name was enough for Li Yu to imagine the full picture of the whole event.

"Women again! It seems your luck with women as a shield is quite abundant."

"By the way, Liu Ruyan was arguing strongly and defending you to the death!"

"Even Zi Yun, after she was framed today and proved her innocence, also said that accusations without actual evidence are slander. Combined with their previous reactions to your disappearance..."

Li Yu said with a half-smile, "Why do I feel like my head is a bit green?"

"Cough cough, cut it out!"

Chen Xian said with deep eyes, "I won't leave here!"

"Why?"

"Because I am not you!"

Chen Xian showed a crazy smile.

He was already going to die anyway. Even without the hehuan pill, there would be the Seven-Day Limit and the Hundred-Year Pact!

He was going to die anyway!

This grievance, he wouldn't take it!

Seeing his crazy look, Li Yu threw a storage ring to him.

"Chen Xian, if you can turn the tables within three days, I can consider giving you a chance to truly pursue me!"

After saying that, her figure disappeared into the night.

"Damn, Narcissistic Woman!"

Although Chen Xian was grumbling...

He picked up the storage ring from the ground.

His Divine Sense swept through the items inside, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Holy crap!

spirit ginseng grass!

His Hehuan Poison—there's hope!
