"That's the second protagonist! Why does he look so angry?" Wang Chen muttered to himself as he saw Zu Ming emerging from the crowd, his eyes bloodshot with fury and his fists clenched so tightly that blood oozed from beneath his fingernails.
"He is the blood brother of Chi Ming, and you can ask him anything you want to know about Chi Ming," the Blood Fang Elder said with a heavy sigh. He knew that Zu Ming's anger was justified, but he had to be careful to ensure the safety of all the disciples. Who knows what the Red Lotus Sect elders might do if they are not satisfied with his response.
He looked around at the members of his sect, making sure that they were prepared for any possible outcome. The tension in the air was palpable, and everyone was on edge, waiting for the Red Lotus sect elders' response.
"What? The guy I killed for the labyrinth opportunity turned out to be the blood brother of the protagonist?" Wang Chen was shocked by this sudden revelation. 'Seems like in one place I killed two different protagonist's brothers.'
Zu Ming instead of answering, roared, "Your sect disciples are despicable! In the first place, you guys tried to kill our sect disciples, and now you are blaming my brother who killed your disciples with his Enlightenment Realm cultivation." Zu Ming turned to the Blood Fang Sect Elder and pointed his finger at him. "And you, Elder, are trying to cover up your own disciples' mistakes. That guy over there," he gestured towards Wang Chen, "even tried to kill me for some treasures I found in the secret realm."
As these words were spoken, all the people present turned their gazes towards Wang Chen, their faces filled with confusion and suspicion.
Wang Chen was taken aback by the sudden accusation, but then he realized that Zu Ming must have misunderstood the situation when those Yue Jang's faction disciples addressed him as "senior".
'System show me his status.' Wang Chen said to the system.
[Ding! 2000 Destiny Points needed to know the Status of Protagonist Zu Ming.]
Hearing system reply Wang Chen became surprised thought the system would tell he is still under the protection of Heaven but this time it was willing to show.
'Is heaven's protection removed?' Wang Chen asked.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt[ Yes, host now you can see the status of protagonist Zu Ming! ]
'Then show me.' Wang Chen said hurriedly.
[Ding! 2000 Destiny Points are consumed to see the status of protagonist Zu Ming.]
[Status]
[ Name : Zu Ming
Luck : Golden
Cultivation Realm : 1st stage Core Formation Realm
Talent : Royal Grade Cultivation Talent.
Special Body : Crimson blood physique
Favorability : -80
Treasure : 1000 Destiny Points needed to see
Technique : 1000 Destiny Points needed to see
Destiny : 2000 Destiny Points needed to know.
Chances: 5000 Destiny Points to see the chances. ]
"Fuck aren't you looting me daylight robbery as what's with all the things needed to see with Destiny Points?" Wang Chen cursed the system as his heart was bleeding seeing that his hard earned Destiny would be looted so easily by the System.
[ It's not my fault it's just that the luck of the protagonist is so high and the price according to that is reasonable.]
"Sigh, I will earn more in future." Wang Chen comforted himself then proceeded to check the other things by using Destiny Points.
….
Wang Chen retorted, "Your accusation is baseless! How could I even touch a hair of yours with my current level of cultivation?"
"I am merely at the first stage of the Innate Realm, while you are already at the early stages of the Core Formation Realm. It seems you are accusing me because you witnessed the Great Elder's attempt to kill me earlier, and the Second Elder saved me from him. You may be planning for the Great Elder to make another attempt on my life, and for the Second Elder to save me again, while the real culprits watch from the sidelines. However, you seem to have forgotten that the Red Lotus Sect values unity and loyalty when it comes to matters related to our sect, and we put our personal grudges aside to fight together."
Upon hearing Wang Chen's explanation, many of the onlookers found it quite reasonable and began to doubt Zu Ming's accusation. Even the elders of the Blood Fang Sect began to reconsider their initial judgement.
Yue Se, who had been observing the situation silently, could not refute Wang Chen's statement as he had made it clear that the sect's interests must come first. It was clear to everyone present that using this opportunity to harm Wang Chen would not be feasible.
As the Red Lotus sect elders checked Zu Ming's cultivation base, they couldn't help but feel surprised. How could he have advanced so quickly from Innate Realm Stage to 1st Stage Core Formation Realm? They knew that it was not possible to achieve such a feat with just mere treasures. This made them consider two possibilities - first, that Zu Ming had somehow inherited the knowledge and power of a powerful cultivator, but this seemed unlikely as no such inheritance had been discovered in recent times.
The second possibility was that he had looted resources and treasures from other disciples, and this seemed more plausible. The secret realm was known for its abundant resources, and it was not uncommon for cultivators to fight over them. If Zu Ming had indeed looted and killed other disciples, it would explain his sudden surge in power. The elders exchanged worried glances, wondering if their own disciples had been among those who fell victim to Zu Ming's greed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn response to the suspicion of his own sect elders, Zu Ming felt frustrated and tried to explain, "I swear I am telling the truth! You were not alone in the secret realm and there were other disciples from your sect who attacked me when you arrived…"
"But Wang Chen interrupted him with a sarcastic tone, "Hah! You're talking nonsense! First, you accused me of hunting you down to steal your treasure, and now you're trying to implicate other disciples as well? Are you going to say in the next sentence that you jumped off a cliff to save your life from my hands?"
"It's true, all of you see. He is telling the truth" Zu Ming said.
Shameless!
All the people listening to Zu Ming's statement sighed at his words. They thought, "Do you expect a thief to explain how he committed a murder and listen to his story, even if there is no proof?"
"Let's just say I attacked you with my fellow disciples, then who were those fellow brothers?" Wang Chen questioned.
Hearing this, Zu Ming started to scan the faces of the Red Lotus sect disciples, searching for the culprits who attacked him and tried to loot his treasure. However, he couldn't find a single person who matched the description. "T-They're all dead," Zu Ming replied with a stutter.
"You are really shameless, you didn't expect this question and then you found the best solution is tell all of them are dead then how am I already alive?" Wang Chen replied.
Hearing this Zu Ming became angry all along he was telling the truth but no one believed even his own sect elder's and disciples didn't believe him even though his brother was killed in the secret realm and he was shown as a culprit. "Damn you, I will kill you…." Zu Ming moved forward to attack Wang Chen but before he could take a step forward. There came a sword attack on the ground. Seeing the attack density he was terrified that even his sect leader couldn't take that head-on.
Suddenly an old man appeared on the sky, " This is just a warning, Don't make such a ruckus again." He said as he released a bit of his aura even some sect elder's bend down just from the pressure.
"It's time to see the results give me the beast cores you have selected so far." He said as he descended on the ground.
Listening to the old man's words everyone forgot what happened earlier and started giving their beast cores.
The elder gave them a token and noted their name on the token plate with the number how much they had obtained.
"I don't have enough beast core to get a place for the second round." Su Chen said disheartened.
Hearing this all of his followers looked at each other and then made a decision, "Young Master Chen, you should take our beast cores. You are the hope of our faction. If you are not selected then we are not even worthy to even enter the second round."
Hearing his followers' words , Su Chen became touched and said, " I will not follow your kindness in the future. I will take good care of you guys." Saying this he also collected the beast cores from the followers and then went to submit it to the old man.
