So I Am A Demon Descendent! - Chapter 262
Chapter 262: She Is Not My Sister
The referee obviously didn’t have a thorough understanding of Li Xianyu’s trouble magnet capabilities. Otherwise, he would have just stopped him, just like what Lightning King would have done. A few seconds ago, Lightning King wanted to go to the stage and drag Li Xianyu down. At least he had to figure out what he wanted to do so he would be mentally prepared.
“Why are you in a hurry? Just watch.” The Unparalleled War Spirit quietly said, halting Lightning King dead in his tracks. Although her tone was carefree, her eyes were sharp.
“Good day, everyone here. I would like to take a few minutes of your precious time before the next game to tell a story,” Li Xianyu said while gazing at the audience.
Xia Xiaoxue made eye contact with him, and she signaled okay.
“Many years ago, there was a very excellent disciple in the Taoist faction who showed extraordinary cultivation talent at a young age and was trained as the next Sect Head by her teachers. She is a genius and is as beautiful as flowers. She is also pure and kind-hearted, and was very popular in the Demon Descendant community.”
The audience were bewildered by Li Xianyu’s sudden story-telling. They were all confused.
“She has a senior sister, who is very gentle. This sister has such a good temper that everyone in Taoism faction knows about it. One year, she and this senior sister travelled down the mountain and passed by Fuzhou. When they heard that there was foreign demon descendants causing trouble, they rushed to check the situation. It is worth mentioning that this information was provided by the gentle elder martial sister. When the simple and kind-hearted lady and her elder martial sister find out the trace of foreign demon descendant and go to kill the enemy, she fell to ambush.”
In the audience within the Taoist crowd, Elder Huayu’s pupils suddenly contracted.
“Her senior sister has long been colluding with foreign demon descendants. She never dreamed that she would be killed by her elder sister, who she regarded as a real sister. Before she died, she knew that all the kindness of her sister was just a disguise to backstab her where it hurts the most. Before she joined the sect, her martial sister was the next Sect Head. As such, her sister hated her, envied her, and thought that she had robbed her future. ”
At this point, most of the audience had understood. Li Xianyu wanted to reveal some dark shady history of some Taoist Elder. No, it was not necessarily just revealing, there might even be more to just telling the story.
At this time, thousands of people’s whispers merged into a “buzz” of noise.
“Who is he talking about? Does anyone know?”
“There are countless Taoist sects and denominations. Who knows who he was referring to?”
The Lightning King felt chills climbing up his spine and looked at his Great-Grandma. “Madam, Madam, can you give me some details in advance? Who is the target of this? What are you, or Li Xianyu, planning?”
Great-Grandma smiled charmingly. “Don’t worry, it’s no big deal.”
Lightning King was speechless. Really? Don’t lie to me.
Li Xianyu’s voice was firm and overwhelmed the people’s humming. In a loud voice, he said, “Her body has been destroyed and her soul was imprisoned in the dark dungeon. Year after year, she endured suffering and loneliness. But the elder martial sister, the betrayer who backstabbed comrades, became a leader of a temple. Her kind teachings spread all over the demon descendant community. This happened 25 years ago. Yet the criminal went off scot-free and remain unpunished. Everyone, is there still justice in this world?”
“I believe yes, justice may be late, but it will definitely be served. Today, it would be the day that the old debts are settled.” Li Xianyu glanced over the audience and his gaze landed at a certain place. He shouted, “Elder Huayu, do you remember that year when you backstabbed Hua Yang at Daming Lake?”
The entire scene fell into deafening silence for a good few seconds. Elder Huayu became the focus of the whole audience. A tsunami of chattering erupted.
“Elder Huayu?!”
“Nonsense, I don’t believe it. She is such a good person.”
“Who is Hua Yang? I haven’t heard of her.”
The sound of discussion was like boiling water in a frying pan.
Lightning King murmured, “Elder Hua Yang? Twenty-five years ago, the missing Elder Hua Yang?! ”
As a Taoist, he naturally heard of Hua Yang, the Hua Yang of Liuyun Temple, who was a bright star figure when the Lightning King was young. When Hua Yang was famous, the Lightning king was still a simple and mediocre monk.
The younger generation had never heard of Hua Yang’s name. After all, when Hua Yang disappeared, the young people of this generation were either unborn or too young. But the older generation definitely knew of Hua Yang.
The bigshots in Taoism all turned one-by-one to look at Huayu.
“Nonsense.” Elder Huayu stood up, trembling with rage.
It was impossible to describe her mood at this moment. She felt anger, surprise, fear… All kinds of emotions surged in her heart. At the same time, she felt that it was unbelievable. How did he know?
“I, Huayu have been in the demon descendant community for decades, and I had always followed my morals. My Liuyun Temple is known for our good moral integrity. Furthermore, I have been in charge of Liuyun Temple for more than 20 years. It is obvious to all that the disciples of Liuyun temple have made great contributions to the demon descendant community. You youngling, how ridiculous was it for you to insult my reputation! ”
Just after she finished talking, an orange mirror light shone on Li Xianyu. The attack was completely unexpected and both Li Xianyu and Hua Yang were caught off guard. Their thoughts slowed to a crawl at that instance.
Elder Huayu had disappeared from her original place, appearing in the arena in an instance. The flash of a sword descended from the Heavens. She had attacked preemptively and was so fast that most people didn’t even react.
At that moment, a human figure flashed out from the audience and smashed the sword right before it beheaded Li Xianyu. The Unparalleled War Spirit grasped onto Elder Huayu’s neck like a farmer holding a chicken. In front of her, Elder Huayu, whose cultivation was pretty decent in the Taoist Faction, was weak as a child.
“Trying to kill my great-grandson in front of me. Who gave you the courage to even think about it?” She looked at Huayu coldly. While still holding her neck with her left hand, she suddenly clenched her right fist.
“Stop!” Several people bellowed at the same time, and the whole row of Taoist Elders got up at the same time.
“Great-Grandma, don’t, don’t kill her.” Li Xianyu’s consciousness returned, and the first feeling that welcomed him was the pain from his abdomen.
Now was not the time to kill her. If he had planned to use violence to regain justice, he need not spend so much effort. In fact, Hua Yang was already freed from the mirror light the moment Huayu had attacked. Even if Great-Grandma didn’t defend him, he would not have died.
Li Xianyu didn’t expect Elder Huayu to be so decisive.
“Calm down, calm down…” the Lightning King rushed over, almost falling down. The expression on his face was so black, as though his wife had caught him cheating.
Great-Grandma snorted and slapped Huayu on the chest. That seemingly light blow almost knocked her out of the arena.
“Elder Huayu, how arrogant must you be to attack and try to kill my men?” Lightning King pressed for an explanation.
“Wow, so now I am arrogant.” Huayu sneered, “Lightning King, if my Liuyun Temple had not stopped the retreat of the remaining evils of the Ancient Gods Clan by cutting off their escape routes back at Zhuhai, and create precious time for Baoze, would you be able to eliminate them so thoroughly? Could you have gotten a good sleep? Now Baoze’s people, insult me and Liuyun Temple, and blame me for being arrogant when I retaliate?”
The Lightning King turned silent.
The Elder Huayu said in a loud voice, “The descendant of the Li family had acted absurdly and unscrupulously. What he had done these days was obvious to all. How could he be credible? But we can’t do anything about him. Why? Because of the Unparalleled War spirit, the descendant of the Li family could act recklessly. That was the case with Li Wuxiang, so is the case now with his son. ”
That actually echoed what a lot of people thought deep down.
“Liuyun Temple has a good reputation in the demon descendant community. I don’t believe that Elder Huayu would do such a thing.”
“Yes, Li Xianyu’s character is more untrustworthy in comparison.”
“Li Xianyu is just a cheater. If not for the Unparalleled War Spirit, he would have been killed a long time ago.”
However, there are many rational and objective people.
“Even without the Unparalleled War Spirit, he is also a young genius… And I don’t think he has done anything that was incredibly immoral.”
“There seem to be something interesting going on with Elder Huayu. If she was not guilty, why did she attack him just now?”
“If not for the Unparalleled War Spirit, Li Xianyu would have died just now. Then the issue of her backstabbing her sister would have been over regardless of the truth. ”
This Elder Huayu, you still dare to talk about my dad…
Li Xianyu said calmly, “Elder Huayu, don’t mention your past achievements, and don’t change the topic. No one here wants to throw dirt on Liuyun Temple. I am only talking about you. You are the leader of Liuyun Temple, but you can’t represent the whole Liuyun Temple. What you said, therefore, has nothing to do with your cruelty. How dare I slander you when there are so many authorities at the conference? ”
“It’s clear that you have a guilty conscience and want to kill me. Come out, Mother Hua Yang,” said Li Xianyu.
Hua Yang came out of Li Xianyu’s body. She was wearing a moon-white Taoist robe worn by the nuns of Liuyun Temple, with an ebony hairpin on her head. Although she was dressed as a nun, her aura was quite different from that of the Taoist gate. Light and dark spirits swirled around, as the holy and destructive auras were intertwined. A pair of huge black wings spread out behind.
At the moment of her death, her life as a Taoist was over. She kept her appearances the same purely out of nostalgia.
The Lightning King’s eyebrows jumped. He knew the existence of fallen angels and even saw them (gambling in the evening). However, the fallen angels he saw were not like this. There were great changes in temperament and appearance. It was just like two different people.
Obviously, the fallen angel changed her appearance.
It turned out that the fallen angel was Hua Yang. She had never used her true appearance to show people.
That lil’ shit Li Xianyu, he is even guarding against me?!
Hua Yang sighed. “Elder martial sister, long time no see.”
At the moment of seeing Hua Yang, the face of the Elder Huayu turned pale and even her hand holding the sword began to shake.
How is that possible? Wasn’t she made into a fallen angel? Wasn’t she in the hands of the McCarthy family? Didn’t she lose her mind? Elder Huayu couldn’t figure out why things turned out like this.
Elder Hua Yang looked around and said in a loud voice, “Good day, I’m Hua Yang. I can prove that what Li Xianyu said is true.”
Once again, the audience boiled in disbelief. It was hard to believe. Elder Huayu had a good reputation and was a very decent person. Now someone showed them that such a person, in order to be the leader of the temple, even harmed her fellow martial sisters when she was young?
“I’m surprised. Elder Huayu is such a person. Can I still believe in justice?”
“There is no absolute justice in the Demon Descendant community. Justice is always for the sake of maintaining order.”
“Look at the faces of those elders in the Taoist sect. The black angel thing that appeared might be Elder Hua Yang.”
“It’s so exciting. This is more interesting than the Forum Conference.”
After the initial consternation and panic, Elder Huayu quickly calmed down. All the Taoist masters were calm, not to mention someone like her who had gone through all kinds of rain and storm.
“She’s not my younger martial sister, everyone. She’s not my sister,” said Elder Huayu loudly.
