298: Chapter 298
"This guy really hides deep; he stabbed me in the back."
Xuan Emperor quietly walked to Ji Dakun's side, his expression very ugly, but he still had to try his best to lower his voice.
"What is going on? You snuck off to the Hundred Flowers Sect just for this slut."
"How foolish you are, to actually dare to kill Gongzi Jianchen and even let the Snake Demon get evidence."
"Usually, I can turn a blind eye to how you fool around outside in private, but this time you were truly too impulsive."
Xuan Emperor felt a sense of disappointment in him; Ji Dakun, who had always been cautious, would actually do such an absurd thing, causing the entire Xuantian Sect to lose all face.
Even so, Xuan Emperor was determined to protect Ji Dakun; the Xuantian Sect could not lose Ji Dakun, just as the West could not lose Jerusalem.
Otherwise, the overall combat power of the Xuantian Sect would drop significantly, and even with Xuan Emperor personally holding down the fort, it would quickly fall to the lower positions of the Top Ten Sects.
Ji Dakun steadied his breath and forcibly explained himself, his attitude fairly sincere; he also understood that Xuan Emperor would step in to settle this matter.
"A Kun, you step aside first. Do not speak randomly from now on; leave everything to me to handle."
"Yes... your subordinate obeys." Ji Dakun bowed slightly and stepped aside.
Xuan Emperor looked at Xiao Bai with disdain: "This is just a despicable method of framing someone. A Kun has never been to the Hundred Flowers Sect; he has remained at the Xuantian Sect the entire time working."
Xuan Emperor waved his hand, and an image of Ji Dakun cleaning appeared in the air. Although it looked a bit blurry, one could tell at a glance that it was Ji Dakun.
"Many Disciples have seen it with their own eyes. He does not possess the technique of Clones, so how could he run to the Hundred Flowers Sect to commit crimes and kill Young Master Gongzi Jianchen?"
Xuan Emperor spoke with such conviction that the onlookers who were watching started to waver again.
The Sword Saint was also shaken, not knowing who to believe next.
After all, the images displayed by Xiao Bai had many parts blurred to protect Hua Rui's privacy, so their credibility was dropping rapidly, and it was very likely they were forged.
Xuan Emperor clapped his hands lightly, having those Disciples come out to testify and prove that Ji Dakun had an alibi at the time.
Xiao Bai shook his head and sneered: "This is the territory of the Xuantian Sect, and those are all your Disciples. Isn't it easy for you to distort the truth?"
Xuan Emperor knew Xiao Bai had a silver tongue, so he turned to look at the Sword Saint.
"Who do you choose to believe now? If you cannot make a choice, then I will help you eliminate the Snake Demon first. It is better to kill by mistake than to let one slip through."
"I guarantee to you that this matter has absolutely nothing to do with A Kun. I stake the reputation of the entire Sect as a guarantee."
To protect Ji Dakun, Xuan Emperor was really going all out, telling lies with his eyes open; he had to let Xiao Bai die here today.
Based on Ji Rushuang's performance earlier, the wine Xiao Bai had drunk was also taken for testing, and the extracted information could determine that he was indeed the biological father of the seven children.
These things could not stump Li Zongbi, who held the reputation of the number one divine doctor in the Immortal Realm, and Xuan Emperor would certainly not let this matter leak out.
If Ji Dakun found out, he would certainly not continue to work for the Xuantian Sect. Even though he had been slowly eroding the Xuantian Sect over these years, everything was within Xuan Emperor's controllable range.
It could be said that this was a smoke bomb released by Xuan Emperor, letting Ji Dakun taste some sweetness on purpose, thinking that the Xuantian Sect would sooner or later be completely under his control in the future.
Currently, only by completely finishing off Xiao Bai could this matter never be exposed.
Li Zongbi had a tight mouth and had followed Xuan Emperor for many years; he certainly would not become a traitor.
And Xuan Emperor did not want to completely fall out with Nightmare, so letting the Sword Saint do it on his behalf was most appropriate; at that time, it would not be blamed on him.
The Sword Saint hesitated, afraid of being used as a pawn by others. He stared fixedly at Xiao Bai: "The woman in the image just now was Sect Leader Hua, right?"
"She should be the current witness. If A Kun has never been to the Hundred Flowers Sect, then Xiao Bai is the murderer and must pay with his life for my son."
Xuan Emperor gave Ji Dakun a wink, telling him to finish off Hua Rui first to destroy the evidence.
Judging from the performance just now, Hua Rui was more inclined towards Xiao Bai and was very likely to tell the truth.
At that time, the entire Xuantian Sect would bear a bad reputation, would become enemies with the Sword Spirit Sect, and Ji Dakun would also become a public enemy of the Immortal Realm.
Publicly killing the heir of one of the Top Ten Sects was a monstrous crime; the aristocratic elite class of the Immortal Realm needed to maintain the existing order.
They would certainly unite to bring Ji Dakun to justice; the privileges they had maintained in the Immortal Realm for a long time must never be shaken by a matrilocal son-in-law.
"You slut, still wanting to spread rumors..."
Just as Hua Rui wanted to speak, Ji Dakun lunged towards her to kill.
Hua Rui, at the Rank 6 Emperor Realm, was simply not a match. The Cultivation she possessed now was entirely boosted by taking pills, and it was very watery.
In terms of combat, she was far inferior to Xiao Bai, who was at the Rank 5 Emperor Realm. Bai Su wanted to save Hua Rui but was sealed by Ji Dakun's powerful Spell.
"Even if your speed is fast, you are only at the Rank 1 Emperor Realm. What can you use to fight me?"
Xiao Bai transformed into a five-headed giant python, forcibly shattering Bai Su's Seal and blocking in front of her.
"A Kun, do you want to kill to silence witnesses? Sect Leader Hua has said nothing yet; you must have a guilty conscience."
Ji Dakun sneered contemptuously: "This slut colluded with outsiders to kill Gongzi Jianchen and still dares to frame me."
"Those who block me die! Get lost!"
Ji Dakun did not waste any more words. If he did not finish off Hua Rui, the only witness, the situation would soon be reversed.
By then, relying on Xuan Emperor's influence in the Immortal Realm, this matter could logically be framed on Xiao Bai, and then the Sword Saint could take action to kill him.
Ji Dakun was so tough that Xiao Bai had no other choice; he could only take Bai Su away first and look for a time to escape.
The two sides were separated by three Ranks, so Xiao Bai certainly did not dare to confront him head-on, and it would be very difficult to save Hua Rui.
Just as Ji Dakun's palm was about to choke Hua Rui's neck, the sky instantly turned black, and one could not see their own fingers.
A thick ventriloquism resounded all around, and Bai Su was extremely excited: "Revered Master has arrived; we don't need to escape for now."
"Ji Xuan, and here I thought we were good friends for so many years, yet you dare to bully my Dreamscape Mountain representative like this."
In the entire Immortal Realm, only Nightmare dared to call Xuan Emperor by his real name, and he had the strength to do so.
The surroundings were still pitch black, and even Xuan Emperor could not break Nightmare's Cultivation Technique, only able to distinguish the surrounding situation through sound.
The Sword Saint condensed countless Flying Swords around him, maintaining a high level of vigilance throughout; once he felt the surrounding situation was not good, he would be the first to launch an attack.
Ji Dakun was completely in the dark; just a moment ago, Hua Rui was less than ten centimeters away from him, but she suddenly disappeared into thin air.
Chapter 403: The Truth Revealed
Nightmare's appearance made everyone on the scene feel huge pressure, and the Sword Saint did not dare to act rashly, having almost failed to restrain himself just now.
The originally arrogant Xuan Emperor's attitude also became much milder; Nightmare's sudden appearance disrupted the situation, making him not dare to relax his vigilance.
"Old Meng, don't misunderstand; A Kun was just testing Xiao Bai just now."
Whoosh!
Violent winds raged all around, and the wails and howls of ghosts and wolves kept coming. This kind of weird Cultivation Technique went against traditional immortality Cultivation and had always been looked down upon by various Sects.
This was why, even though Nightmare's strength was so terrifying, he had not entered the Ranks of the Top Ten Experts of the Immortal Realm.
And Nightmare had never liked participating in the struggles of the Immortal Realm, preferring to be carefree; if it weren't for the tragic destruction of the Lower Realm Dreamscape Mountain, he would not have appeared at all.
As for why he did not kill Xiao Bai to avenge those Disciples who died tragically, it was indeed puzzling.
The darkness gradually disappeared, and light returned to this area once again.
Nightmare appeared beside Bai Su, a very kind old man; no one could have imagined that he could actually use such a weird Cultivation Technique.
"Bai Su is my closing Disciple, and her husband, Xiao Bai, naturally also belongs to part of Dreamscape Mountain. Did you want to take action against him just now?"
"They came representing Dreamscape Mountain, yet they could not get life guarantees and were even framed."
With Nightmare as his backing, Xiao Bai's confidence suddenly became much stronger, but he did not understand what this Old Guy was trying to play at.
Logically speaking, he destroyed the Lower Realm Dreamscape Mountain, and the deaths of the Eight Peak Revered Masters were all related to him, so there should be deep hatred.
Even with the relationship of Bai Su, it was impossible to have such good treatment, like training his two sons for free and appearing in time to support him at critical moments.
Nightmare's assertiveness greatly shocked Xuan Emperor. They had dealt with each other for so many years, and this was the first time he had stood out so high-profile to help a Snake Demon.
Xuan Emperor chose silence, telling Ji Dakun not to act rashly; with so many Sect representatives watching, and Nightmare backing Xiao Bai, he could only face reality.
The Sword Saint slowly came to Nightmare's side; in front of a Revered Master stronger than him, he became very respectful.
"Senior Nightmare, I have no other intentions; I just want to find out the truth about my son's tragic death."
"No matter who did it, I will risk my old life to make him pay with his life."
Nightmare gently stroked his beard, slightly squinting his eyes: "The images provided by Xiao Bai are the best evidence."
Xiao Bai glanced at Nightmare and understood his meaning; it was nothing more than restoring the scene at that time again.
Afterwards, he slowly came to Hua Rui's side and whispered softly: "Sect Leader Hua, I now need to re-present the entire incident."
"I am afraid I cannot protect your privacy like before. Do you think that is okay?"
Xiao Bai actually had a decision in his heart long ago; he was just giving Hua Rui a heads-up first to let her be mentally prepared.
"Hmm, since things have come to this, just do as you wish. I have already been notorious among the elite class of the Immortal Realm."
Hua Rui was relatively open-minded; she had been played with by so many people and had always been known for being lewd among these big shots in the Immortal Realm.
It was nothing more than having more people see her body, which was no big deal; it was better than losing her life.
Xiao Bai activated the crystal again, replaying the entire incident from beginning to end, high-definition and uncensored, and the audio had not been processed in any way.
Very quickly, a large crowd gathered around; those lecherous men who had coveted Hua Rui's body were feeling hot and restless all over.
They kept wiping their drool, staring fixedly at the screen without even blinking.
Unexpectedly, the goddess of the masses was actually so lewd, and her oral skills could be called first-class; she would not feel tired at all.
Just finished going crazy with Jian Chen, and turned around to serve Ji Dakun; the switch was quite smooth. At a glance, one could tell she was an old hand and would not feel embarrassed at all.
Originally the goddess of the masses in the Immortal Realm, after the video's realistic restoration, her image immediately plummeted to the bottom, turning into a Pan Jinlian.
Nightmare laughed and said: "Do you all still have questions about this image? You are welcome to go and test its authenticity."
"This is a realistic restoration, and no Spell was used to fake it. I believe everyone can tell at a glance."
The Sword Saint glared at Ji Dakun with wide eyes, his eyes filled with bloodshot veins, and demanded: "A Kun, what else do you have to say?"
"You actually killed Jian Chen for this slut and even framed others. What is your intention?"
The matter had already been exposed, so Ji Dakun simply showed his cards and stopped pretending, not fearing the Sword Saint at all.
He believed that Xuan Emperor would unswervingly support him; the Xuantian Sect had a powerful ally behind them, so even if other Sects united, they could do nothing to them.
"That's right, I did it! That arrogant fellow Jian Chen dared to slander the Immortal Emperor. According to the laws of the Immortal Realm, he can be executed directly. What fault do I have?"
