As the Universe Turns - Chapter 667
Chapter 667 A Man in the Dark
“What …”
This sentence seemed to stir up a thousand waves, causing everyone from all sects to be shocked. No one dared to believe his words. A Old man Qingyi coldly said, “Xiao Cangtian, you were full of evil and killed countless people back then, yet you are still spouting nonsense here?”
“Nonsense? Haha!”
Xiao Cangtian raised his head and smiled. “I, Xiao Cangtian, have never had to explain anything. I have indeed killed many people, but those people are either enemies, enemies, or evil intentions. Otherwise, how could they die at my hands? If they have no grievances or enemies with me, I would still be disdainful of killing them … Hmph!”
Even though he had said this, most of the people present still did not believe him. Some of them began to ponder carefully. The events of that year were indeed complicated and confusing, especially when he finally hid under Xuanqing Mountain. This fact was too strange.
At this time, that Qingyu Zi stood out from the crowd and looked coldly at Xiao Cangtian. He could not hide his hatred in his eyes and said, “Xiao Cangtian, you said that the people you killed were all people who had enmity with you, but my junior brother had no enmity with you. Why did he die at your hands?”
Xiao Cangtian looked at him and said, “Who is your junior brother?”
Qingyuzi said coldly, “You’ve killed countless people. I’m a small sect, a small person. Of course, you don’t even know his surname …”
Xiao Cangtian raised his hand and said righteously, “No, the people I killed were all famous people with surnames. Tell me your junior brother’s name.”
“Alright …”
Qingyuzi looked at him coldly and nodded. “My junior brother is Qingtong Mountain, Qingchengzi.”
“Qingtong Mountain, Qingchengzi …”
Xiao Cangtian narrowed his eyes and pondered for a moment. Finally, he shook his head and said, “There is no such name among the people I killed. You are mistaken.”
“I made a mistake … Hehe.”
Qingyu Zi sneered, “That day, I repeatedly inspected Junior Brother’s corpse. In his heart, it was the Nine Yin Nine Yang Palm, and there was still a trace of Nine Yin Nine Yang power left in his body. Could it be that there was a second person in this world who knew the Nine Yin Nine Yang Profound Technique back then?”
“That’s right! My junior brother and senior brother also possess the palm power of the Nine Yin Nine Yang Profound Technique. Xiao Cangtian, do you still want to argue?”
Quite a few people in the vicinity immediately echoed, their voices growing louder and louder. Gradually, the crowd became excited.
“Haha!”
Xiao Cangtian laughed loudly. He enraged everyone and immediately quieted down. He only heard him say, “Sophistry? Even if I kill someone, I will kill them openly. If I kill them, then I will kill them. If I don’t kill them, then I won’t kill them. Since when do I need to sophistry?”
Hearing what he said, everyone was still puzzled. A Old man Zi Yi looked at him and said, “You keep saying that those people weren’t killed by you back then, but those people died because of your Nine Yin Nine Yang Profound Technique. How do you explain this?”
“Is that so?”
Xiao Cangtian coldly snorted. He raised his palm and a palm force immediately covered the crowd below. However, seeing the surging palm force, everyone was shocked and hurriedly circulated their profound arts to resist. However, under the shroud of the nine yin and nine yang forces, everyone immediately felt as if they had fallen into an ice abyss of ten thousand feet. Sometimes, they felt as if they had fallen into a sea of blades, mountains, and flames. It was already extremely unbeardutiful.
A moment later, Xiao Cangtian withdrew his Nine Yin and Nine Yang Palm Power and coldly said, “This is my Nine Yin and Nine Yang Power. Is it the same as the residual aura you felt from the corpses back then?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the surroundings immediately quieted down. The people who were originally still clamoring remained silent, and many people began to think carefully.
The remnants of the Nine Yin and Nine Yang energy they had detected from those corpses back then seemed to be slightly different from the Nine Yin and Nine Yang energy they had just sensed. However, this alone did not mean anything. There were many changes in cultivation methods in the world, not to mention that so many years had passed, and it was normal for their cultivation levels to be slightly different from the Nine Yin and Nine Yang energy they had just sensed.
In the distance, Daoist Feng Yin stood motionless in midair, listening to the zither messenger approaching from the side. He whispered, “Daoist Feng Yin, what should we do now?”
Daoist Feng Yin stared at Xiao Cangtian and sent a secret message to the four of them, saying, “Xiao Cangtian is not the only one who has come today … Now, it is not appropriate to move lightly.”
“Alright …”
After listening, the zither messenger retreated and looked at the other three messengers. Seeing that there was something wrong with the chess messenger’s face, Ning Mei asked, “What’s wrong with you?”
At this moment, the Guan Qi Messenger regained his senses. From just now on, he had been uneasy and shook his head, “No, nothing …”
On the other side of the valley entrance, another white-haired old man stood up and looked coldly at Xiao Cangtian in midair. He said coldly, “Xiao Cangtian, you said that those people were not killed by you back then. Tell me who killed those people!”
Xiao Cangtian glanced at the crowd once again. “I told you before! That person is not a member of the Demon Gate. He is a member of your Righteous path. He has also come today. He is among you right now!”
Hearing this, many people in the crowd were shocked. It was hard to believe what he was saying. Xiao Cangtian snorted coldly and continued, “That person has a skill that is capable of imitating other people’s cultivation methods. If he is a smart person, he can naturally tell the difference at a glance. However, which one of you truly understands the Nine Yin and Nine Yang Profound Techniques?” “So it’s normal that you can’t tell if it’s real or fake!”
“What nonsense! What nonsense!”
At this moment, someone stood up and pointed at him, “Xiao Cangtian, you said so much because you wanted to argue. Then tell me, why did that person frame you?”
“Humph!”
Xiao Cangtian flicked his sleeve. “Back then, when I had the fragment of the Book of Heaven, The man had been coveting him, But he was afraid that his identity would be exposed, so he could only peek into the darkness, After I lose to the leaders of the four great demon sects, Another blessing in disguise, But he didn’t expect that, Even the leaders of the Four Great Devil Sects cannot kill me. However, in the end, I can only find a place to recover my profound arts. By midnight, that person finally appeared. That night, I fought with him a few times. From his cultivation methods, I dare to conclude that he must be a member of the Profound Sect. However, I think, other than Daoist Qingxuan, who else in the several great profound sects at that time had such abilities? ”
As soon as he said this, the crowd trembled even more. The expressions of everyone from the Xuanqing Sect changed abruptly, including the calm expression between Jiang Nanliu and his usually calm eyebrows. At this moment, his expression changed. Poria’s face turned pale and she said quickly, “Don’t talk nonsense!”
At this moment, Xiao Chen’s expression did not change. He knew that things would not be that simple.
“Humph!”
Xiao Cangtian brushed his sleeves coldly and continued, “I haven’t finished yet!” At that time, I also suspected, That person was Adept Qingxuan, But after thinking for a while, he felt that something was wrong, “Many years ago, I fought with Adept Qingxuan. At that time, there was no hidden malice in his cultivation methods. It was all an authentic cultivation method of the Xuanmen Sect. I also admire him very much. However, that person that night, although he concealed the cultivation method very deeply, he was unable to conceal that malicious intent. From this, I dare to conclude that he is not Adept Qingxuan!”
Hearing this, the people from the Xuanqing Sect finally heaved a sigh of relief. However, the people from the other sects all had doubts on their faces. If what he said was true, then who would that person be? If it was really someone from the Righteous path, how terrifying would it be …
