414: Chapter 414 Mo Feng is so disgusting, even the disciples of the Taihu Clan can't stand him anymore.
"Well said, Sect Master!"
"Our Hehuan Sect has never been what they imagine!"
"We never force anyone! It's those people from the Taihu Clan who are shameless!"
Zhou Daniu shouted at the top of his lungs, "Well said, Sect Master! These bastards do such despicable things themselves, yet they have the nerve to call us demonic heretics? Shameless!"
"You are the most shameless people in the world!"
Zhao Tiezhu followed suit, shouting, "Exactly! Those people from the Taihu Clan are the real demonic heretics!"
"Kidnapping, abduction, and using force—they're capable of all that, yet they dare call themselves a righteous sect?"
Li Ergou jumped up and cursed, "Mo Feng, you old shameless bastard!"
"Were those things you just said even human? 'Exchange'? 'Seeking advice'? I spit on that!"
"I've lived for so many years and I've never seen anything as shameless as you!"
Sun Xiaohua, Zhou Xiaolian, and several other female Disciples were so angry their eyes turned red. They pointed at Mo Feng and cursed, "You Taihu Clan people, you think you're justified in bullying women? You even said 'Hehuan Sect people don't care'? Would you not care if someone tore your mother's clothes off?"
The Taihu Clan Disciples were each filled with such shame they wished they could disappear.
Some lowered their heads, some covered their faces, and some quietly retreated a few steps, wishing they could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
"So... that's what Hehuan means..."
"Have we misunderstood the Hehuan Sect all this time?"
"That beast Zhou Jingxing did such a thing and made us lose face along with him!"
"Elder Mo Feng even lied to us to get us to stand up for them... Isn't this just using us as pawns?"
"I was even joining in the heckling just now... I'm really not human..."
The voices of discussion grew louder and more dissatisfied.
Some angrily cursed Zhou Jingxing, some apologized in shame, and others looked at Mo Feng with strange gazes, their eyes full of doubt and distrust.
A young Taihu Clan Disciple stepped forward and asked Mo Feng, "Elder Mo Feng, is what Sect Leader Xu said... true? Did Senior Brother Zhou and the others really do those things?"
Mo Feng's expression changed, and he said sharply, "What nonsense are you talking? Zhou Jingxing and the others are already dead; dead men tell no tales! You believe whatever Xu Ruyu says?"
The young Disciple hesitated for a moment and added, "But... Sect Leader Xu said there is footage from a Recording Array, as well as bloodstains and torn clothes in the cave..."
Mo Feng interrupted him, fuming, "A Recording Array can be forged! Bloodstains and torn clothes can be planted in advance! Xu Ruyu is a man of many schemes; you actually believe his words?"
Xu Ruyu sneered and pulled a Jade Slip from his robes, holding it high.
"Elder Mo Feng, inside this Jade Slip is the footage I recorded in the cave using a Recording Array."
"The ropes Xiao Nianyin was bound with, her torn clothes, Zhou Jingxing's disgusting face—it's all in here."
"Do you want to see the true faces of your 'fine' Disciples in front of everyone?"
Mo Feng's face instantly turned pale, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He naturally knew what was inside. He had known about what Zhou Jingxing and the others were doing for a long time.
In fact, he had been eager for them to do it.
Because only then could he provoke Xu Ruyu and find an excuse to deal with him.
But he hadn't expected Xu Ruyu to actually keep recorded evidence!
"You... you..."
Mo Feng pointed at Xu Ruyu, his fingers trembling, but he couldn't say a single word.
Xu Ruyu held up the Jade Slip, looked around, and said in a cold voice, "Brothers of the Taihu Clan, do you want to see? Do you want to see what your fellow clansmen have actually done?"
The Taihu Clan Disciples looked at each other; some wanted to see, some didn't dare, and some had already lowered their heads in shame.
"Look! Why shouldn't we look?"
"Right! Bring it out and let us see! Let us see exactly what Zhou Jingxing did!"
"If it's true, we will never condone it! Such a beast deserves to die!"
But some of Mo Feng's die-hard followers shouted, "We can't look! It's fake! Xu Ruyu forged it!"
"Right! Xu Ruyu wants to sow discord! We can't fall for his trick!"
The two sides began to argue, and the area in front of the mountain gate became a chaotic mess.
Xu Ruyu put away the Jade Slip and said coldly, "If you don't believe it, you are more than welcome to go to the cave and see for yourselves."
"Zhou Jingxing's blood is still on the stone walls, and the fragments of Xiao Nianyin's torn dress are still on the ground. The evidence is solid; there's no running from it."
He paused, his gaze falling on Mo Feng, and said word for word, "Elder Mo Feng, do you dare let people go and investigate?"
Mo Feng opened his mouth but could not speak.
His face went from pale to ashen, then from ashen to a flushed red. The veins on his forehead bulged, and his lips trembled, but he couldn't utter a single word.
Of course he didn't dare.
Because he knew that what Xu Ruyu said was true.
Seeing Mo Feng's reaction, the Taihu Clan Disciples already understood most of the truth. Someone cursed angrily, "That beast Zhou Jingxing! He has completely disgraced our Taihu Clan!"
"We actually stood up for someone like that? We were truly blind!"
"Elder Mo Feng, why didn't you tell us the truth? You tricked us into surrounding the mountain gate just to seek revenge for that kind of scum?"
Mo Feng's face was ashen as he shouted sharply, "Shut up! All of you, shut up! What do you know? I did this for the dignity of the Taihu Clan!"
"Xu Ruyu, an outsider, killed our clansmen and beat our Disciples—that is a fact!"
"Regardless of what Zhou Jingxing and the others did, it should have been handled by our Taihu Clan itself!"
"It is not for an outsider like him to take action!"
He took a deep breath, forcing down the rage in his heart, and his voice became even colder: "Xu Ruyu, even if Zhou Jingxing and the others were in the wrong, they are already dead!"
"Killed by you! This matter ends here. However—"
He pointed at the injured Taihu Clan Disciples on the ground, his voice becoming even more piercing: "What about these people? What did they do wrong? Your Hehuan Sect people beat them into this state—how shall we settle this debt?"
"Look at them, bruised and battered, with broken arms and legs—this is all the doing of your Hehuan Sect!"
