48: Demand an explanation from the Daoist Immortal Sect? This is infuriating!
Qin Tian looked toward the voice. The speaker was the Head of Dao Peak of the Dao Seeking Immortal Sect, who was also the one with the highest seniority among the twelve heads.
However, there was no blame in his eyes, and his tone carried a hint of doubt, as if he did not believe that Qin Tian would do such a thing.
Qin Tian was slightly stunned.
Search the Divine Soul, steal the Cultivation Technique? Could it be...?
He suddenly recalled the Cultivators who had burned their own Divine Souls to death in front of him... He had felt it was very strange at the time.
Now it seemed they were planning to stage this act!
After figuring it out, Qin Tian gave a cold smile.
"Senior Martial Uncle, I wonder from whom you heard these words?"
The Head of Dao Peak raised his eyes, his gaze falling upon a woman.
"Was it you who said it?"
"So what if it was! Are you going to kill me too?"
The woman stepped forward. "This Junior, Liu Ruyan of the Flame Sect, saw with my own eyes that Qin Tian killed the Disciples of various Sects, and even cruelly stripped away their Divine Souls to interrogate them for their Sect's Cultivation Technique Legacy!"
"Such actions are heinous and unforgivable!"
"This Junior asks all Seniors to uphold justice, and also requests the Dao Seeking Immortal Sect to provide an explanation, and let Qin Tian pay with his life!"
Qin Tian saw the woman's face clearly and felt suspicious.
He remembered that Liu Ruyan and Savage Ancient had been besieged together, and both had been saved by him.
Yet now, she was spouting lies. This meant that something must have happened after they left.
Thinking of this, Qin Tian's eyes narrowed as he scanned his surroundings, and sure enough, he did not see Ming Tian and Savage Ancient.
"You wretch Liu Ruyan, I remember you. It was clearly Senior Brother who saved you back then, yet you are repaying kindness with enmity and slandering Senior Brother. You are truly courting death!" Bai Xiyin did not hide her killing intent and angrily rebuked her.
"You are the one spouting nonsense! You are all accomplices of Qin Tian, and you had a hand in killing these people too!" Liu Ruyan shrieked, "I have evidence, you are the ones who killed them!"
As she finished speaking, a light flashed on Liu Ruyan's storage ring. Dozens of corpses appeared.
"Ah! Shao'er!" "Liu'er!" "Zhan'er!" ...
Seeing the corpses, many elders from various Sects rushed forward in grief and indignation. These were all the Prodigies of their Sects! To think they had perished just like that...
"All Seniors, I know that these Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters were true Geniuses, whom each Sect spent painstaking effort to cultivate until now, yet they were killed by this villain Qin Tian!"
"If we do not seek justice, how can we let them rest in peace?!" Liu Ruyan said with great sorrow.
"If you all still do not believe it, I have a profound shadow stone here that completely records the scene of Qin Tian killing people!"
Saying this, Liu Ruyan activated the profound shadow stone, and what it displayed was indeed the scene of Qin Tian killing those Cultivators to save Savage Ancient and the others.
However, the profound shadow stone did not record Savage Ancient and the others... This could be considered ironclad evidence.
Everyone's expression changed as they looked at Qin Tian, wanting to see how he would explain it.
The Head of Dao Peak stepped forward and scanned one of the corpses. "Indeed, the Divine Soul is gone, and there is indeed Qin Tian's aura."
"Qin Tian, do you have any explanation?"
Qin Tian stepped forward. "Reporting to Senior Martial Uncle, I did indeed kill these few, but I did not destroy their Divine Souls."
"As for these few over here, I hadn't even had the chance to kill them yet, they burned their own Divine Souls."
!!! Everyone was stunned. Qin Tian just admitted it?
"Good! He admitted it!" Liu Ruyan shouted coldly, "It was him, he killed these Disciples!"
"The Dao Seeking Immortal Sect must punish Qin Tian, provide us with an explanation, and return justice to us!"
"I ask the Senior to enforce the law impartially." Liu Ruyan looked at the Head of Dao Peak.
The Head of Dao Peak glanced at her indifferently. Instantly, Liu Ruyan felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar!
"What kind of thing are you, to dare to demand an explanation from my Dao Seeking Immortal Sect?"
The Head of Dao Peak's voice was clearly very calm, yet everyone present shivered.
"Do you all want an explanation too?"
The elders of the various Sects who were holding the corpses trembled in their hearts. For a moment, no one dared to speak.
"Qin Tian, come forward."
Qin Tian stepped to the side of the Head of Dao Peak.
"According to what the profound shadow stone shows, plus these corpses, there are a total of forty-seven people."
"These forty-seven people dared to besiege a Disciple of my Dao Seeking Immortal Sect together. They truly have immense audacity!"
Gasp—!! Many people present felt their hearts turn cold instantly!
Liu Ruyan was frozen in place.
"And you still dare to ask me for an explanation? It seems the Dao Seeking Immortal Sect has not taken action for too long, making you all too confident."
"To the Sects that these forty-seven people belong to, I give you two choices."
"Either bring sufficient sincerity and come forward to apologize, and this matter will be dropped; or the Dao Seeking Immortal Sect will personally send people to your doors to give you an explanation!"
"Choose."
The scene fell into absolute silence.
Liu Ruyan stood frozen, disbelieving, "You... you rely on your strength to be unreasonable?"
Boom! The Head of Dao Peak couldn't even be bothered to look at Liu Ruyan, and raised his hand to press down.
Instantly, her Physical Body shattered, leaving only a wisp of her Divine Soul.
"Eh? The Divine Soul is incomplete?" The Head of Dao Peak's eyes showed confusion, and he spoke slowly.
"Qin Tian, do you know who is trying to frame you?"
Qin Tian smiled, "Reporting to Senior Martial Uncle, this Junior understands."
"Then you handle it yourself."
"Fighting forty-seven enemies and remaining unharmed, that is quite good!"
"Come to Dao Peak when you have time, Senior Martial Uncle will give you a few things."
"Yes, Senior Martial Uncle." Qin Tian bowed in salute.
The Head of Dao Peak flashed away, returning to the side to close his eyes and rest, no longer caring about anything.
Everyone gradually woke up from their dazed state.
That's right, this is the Dao Seeking Immortal Sect! The leader of the Six Great Immortal Sects of this era, the undisputed number one Sect.
How could this Flame Sect dare to challenge them? And ask for an explanation? Are Disciples of the Dao Seeking Immortal Sect people they can afford to provoke?
Not long after, the Sects behind those forty-seven corpses came forward one by one, carrying Spirit Medicines and treasures, to offer apologies to Qin Tian, not daring to show any disrespect in their eyes.
Qin Tian did not refuse anyone and accepted everything!
Yun Xi smiled faintly, still recalling the scene from the profound shadow stone just now.
"Killing dozens of Cultivators of the same realm alone, Tian'er's cultivation has improved significantly again."
Just then, the spatial passage of the Fallen Dragon Grotto fluctuated again, and a figure covered in blood with a weak aura rushed out, falling straight to the ground!
Everyone was startled. Jian Wuhen saw the figure clearly, and was even more shocked, rushing forward immediately.
"Seven'er!" "What happened to you? Why are you injured to this extent?"
The heads of the other peaks were also extremely astonished. They all knew Jian Qi's strength; there shouldn't be anyone in the Fallen Dragon Grotto who could injure him to this degree.
"Mas... Revered Master..."
Jian Qi spoke intermittently, his aura having already fallen to the bottom.
"Seven'er, don't speak, Revered Master will heal you!"
"Use... useless... Seven'er's... Divine Soul has dissipated... even immortals... cannot save me..."
"What!!!" Jian Wuhen's tiger-like body shook.
His Divine Thought quickly probed into Jian Qi's body, and then he froze in place.
"Impossible!" "Who could injure you to this extent!?"
"Revered Master... I'm sorry... Seven'er... cannot carry on... your... mantle anymore..."
"No—!"
Jian Wuhen channeled his Spiritual Power, frantically pouring it into Jian Qi's body. However, it was of no use.
Jian Qi's Divine Soul had almost completely dissipated; there was simply no way to save him.
Chu Xiong Yi also stepped forward and fed Jian Qi a Medicinal Pill, but it still had no effect.
Jian Wuhen's expression was gloomy to the extreme.
"Seven'er, tell me, who is it! Revered Master will definitely avenge you!"
Jian Qi struggled to lift his head, and from his mouth came an intermittent, weak voice:
"Qin... Tian... killed... me...!"
