145: Secretly colluding with foreign races!

Upon hearing this, the people in the hall were stunned for a moment.

But immediately after, they all turned their heads in unison to look at the figure on the main seat.

Wild Song.

He was now the only existence in the Ascension Realm within Zhen Tian Pass!

Wild Song let out a cold, raspy laugh from his throat; his brows were lowered, as if suppressing endless fury.

"Is that so..."

"Then, I invite the ChangSheng Proclamation Envoy of the Zhuge Family, Lord Lin You."

"Enter the pass."

The soldier who came to report bowed and obeyed.

A suffocating silence slowly drifted through the air; no one dared to even breathe loudly.

It was as if this suppressed volcano would erupt completely in the next second!

It was unknown how long they waited.

Outside the hall door, a suffocating knocking sound came.

— Bang...

— Bang, bang...

A figure in white slowly appeared at the hall entrance. He seemed naturally eye-catching; just by standing there, countless gazes fell upon him.

Lin You narrowed his eyes, searching for those eight familiar figures.

Very quickly, he saw Lin Cuihao and the others in the corner on the left.

Like the other generals in the Longevity Realm, they stood there silently.

Only their eyes... were filled with cold mockery.

The corners of Lin You's mouth curled into a smile. 'You dogs, you had better not have died at the hands of those Demon Race members; otherwise, he really wouldn't know if this mission could be completed!'

Lin You quickly withdrew his gaze, pretending that nothing had happened.

After all, this was a private matter of the Lin Family, concerning the secret of the Lin Family's war division Old Ancestor, Lin Tangfeng, from countless years ago.

He was unwilling, and did not want outsiders to know.

And Lin Cuihao and the others similarly closed their mouths in tacit understanding.

A tense atmosphere concerning the life and death of both sides spread invisibly.

Lin You walked into the hall, and seeing everyone frowning, he subconsciously stopped his steps.

Before he could even speak, he heard a thunderous roar!

"Lin You, you still have the guts to come back!"

"Do you know how the word 'death' is written!"

On the main seat, Wild Song's aura was like the sea, and his surging pressure locked onto Lin You without any concealment.

If there was any disturbance, he would surely suffer a thunderous blow.

Enveloped by that ocean-like killing intent, Lin You did not lose his composure; instead, he looked at the man in the head seat with confusion.

He cupped his hands.

"I do not know why I should not dare to come?"

"This Zhen Tian Pass is where the Human Race works together; what is improper about that?"

Lin You was confused at the moment, having no idea what had happened.

Wild Song's laughter became increasingly cold, and his shoulders were trembling.

"You still know that Zhen Tian Pass protects the Human Race!"

"Then let me ask you, you should have entered the pass three days ago, but you only appeared now. Where have you been during this time!"

Lin You was stunned for a moment.

It was inconvenient to go into detail about the grievances with Lin Cuihao, the Lin Family, and the Sima Family.

For these three days, he had been collecting Dao Fruits, and it was even more impossible to speak of searching for the artifact.

He hesitated for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "This is my personal private matter; there is no need to explain it to you."

Once these words were spoken, everyone looked at each other.

Entering the Ancient Burial Ground and having no movement for three days, and now he was not even willing to give a reason?

Hiss...

Wild Song was clearly furious to the extreme; with a 'snap', he crushed the chair he was sitting on into powder.

"No need?"

"I will give you one more chance to speak, for the sake of the Zhuge Family."

"Young man..."

"You had better cherish it; otherwise, this might be the last words of your life."

Wild Song's last words were spoken almost like a threat.

Lin You examined everyone's expressions and vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

After pondering slightly, he asked.

"The matters within are complicated; it is useless for me to speak of them."

"If General Ren wants to kill me, just do it directly. Along the way, I, Lin You, have offended at least eight or ten thousand people."

"Why be so aggressive?"

"But today, I, Lin You, want to ask for clarity."

"I am merely a Cultivator in the Great Saint Realm, and there are countless heroes in Zhen Tian Pass. Even if I am a ChangSheng Proclamation Envoy of the Zhuge Family, is it just because I did not arrive at Zhen Tian Pass at the first moment..."

"...that the General counts all the casualties from the battle with the Demon Race on my head?"

"That is somewhat unreasonable."

Wild Song stood up abruptly from his seat, his eyes narrowing.

"You mean to say that I am abusing my power for personal vendettas?"

"Deliberately making things difficult for you?"

Lin You nodded, "I do indeed think so. Otherwise, please give me a reasonable explanation, General. What does my appearance or non-appearance have to do with these three days?"

Wild Song nodded repeatedly, the anger in his eyes unable to be suppressed.

If not for everyone watching, he would really want to slap this annoying flea in front of him to death.

"Good, good!"

"Then I will tell you. The Shura Department, one of the Six Departments of the Demon Race, ambushed our Zhen Tian Pass."

"Tens of thousands of Cultivators died in battle!"

"Three thousand miles away, there is a grand array set up by the Longevity Family for the purpose of warning."

"But now... the grand array is broken!"

"The Shura Department came prepared!"

"In other words, among the people present... someone has colluded with the Alien Race. You had never been to the Ancient Burial Ground before, and just as you entered, the grand array was destroyed, and hundreds of thousands of the Demon Race army swept in."

"Yet you were wandering outside for three days, safe and sound."

"Lin You!"

— Clang...

Wild Song drew the long blade from his waist, his Ascension Realm pressure fully revealed.

"Do you have anything else to say?"

Lin You, who finally understood everything, suddenly looked up.

The place he looked at was not Wild Song.

But... Lin Cuihao!

If there was any bastard colluding with the Alien Race, it was most likely them.

Although he had no evidence at all.

But now that he was already being suspected, he might as well drag one of them down with him!

Besides, three days ago, who knew where they had gone before they attacked him? Perhaps they had deliberately destroyed the grand array and then framed him!

Being looked at by Lin You like this.

Lin Cuihao's heart skipped a beat. 'What the hell are you looking at me for!'

'Don't you have any idea whether I went to destroy the grand array or not?'

'This charge cannot be pinned on me. The conflict with Lin You is at most a private vendetta, but this thing will cost me my head!'

He hurriedly avoided eye contact, but it was still keenly captured by everyone!

Wild Song also cast a suspicious gaze towards Lin Cuihao; he looked back and forth between the two of them as if scrutinizing them.

"Lin..."

Wild Song's words had not yet been spoken.

Lin Cuihao immediately walked out, "General Ren, this matter has nothing to do with me! Lin You is completely framing me."

Wild Song was immediately silent.

He had originally intended to ask Lin You, but after saying only one word, he was interrupted by Lin Cuihao.

His suspicion grew even stronger.

Lin You also hurriedly said: "Nonsense, if anyone is colluding with the Alien Race, it absolutely has something to do with him!"

Lin Cuihao was furious: "Do you have any evidence? I am a member of the Longevity Lin Family; your words are framing me!"

Lin You did not yield at all, "Then you say I destroyed the grand array, do you have any evidence? I am a ChangSheng Proclamation Envoy of the Zhuge Family; your words are framing me!"

What a fine display of deflection.

It directly caused the brains of everyone present to crash.
