Chapter 755: Chapter 670: The Sole Focus!

When Xi Wei’er spoke, the Buddhist temple immediately quieted down. Everyone, including Chu Xuanji and Ye Fan, withheld their comments and instead directed their attention towards Xi Wei’er, awaiting her next words.

"Given the lack of evidence, let us not discuss whether the Evil Emperor of Huaxia intervened."

Contrary to everyone’s expectations, Xi Wei’er did not directly sentence Chu Xuanji and his disciple Ye Fan. Instead, it seemed she might be speaking in Chu Xuanji’s defense.

"What is Xi Wei’er trying to do?"

Upon hearing Xi Wei’er’s words, almost everyone began to harbor this doubt in their minds.

"Let me first discuss my views on how to deal with the incident of the Evil Emperor’s Disciple brutally massacring and looting the Japanese Cultivation World."

"The actions of the Evil Emperor’s Disciple severely violate the rules of the Cultivation World. The nature is extremely malicious. Personally, I suggest the death penalty!"

Xi Wei’er spoke again, her voice resounding loudly, not only making everyone present hear her clearly but even the young geniuses outside the Buddhist temple heard her.

There was a stir!

Though they knew Xi Wei’er would not give Ye Fan a chance to survive, hearing her righteously demand Ye Fan’s execution still caused a commotion at the scene.

In an instant.

Almost everyone turned their gaze to Chu Xuanji, curious about his reaction.

Clearly, by this moment, everyone guessed Xi Wei’er’s intent—assign a capital offense to Ye Fan to enrage Chu Xuanji, pushing him to stand against the Global Cultivation World!

It must be said, Xi Wei’er’s move was extremely ruthless and strikingly bloodless.

However—

Contrary to Xi Wei’er’s expectation, Chu Xuanji did not get angry but merely looked at her expressionlessly.

"In addition, the act of looting Essence Stones from sixteen major Cultivation Families and Sects in Japan by the Evil Emperor’s Disciple is an act of robbery and must be returned!"

Seeing that Chu Xuanji remained unmoved, Xi Wei’er was taken aback, then she spoke again, "According to preliminary estimates, the Evil Emperor’s Disciple looted up to five hundred thousand Essence Stones!"

"If the master and disciple of the Evil Emperor of Huaxia can’t repay the Essence Stones, then the Yanhuang Organization shall bear it!"

Towards the end, Xi Wei’er revealed her true intentions, directly involving the Yanhuang Organization, "Firstly, the master and disciple belong to the Huaxia Cultivation World, and secondly, after this incident, the Yanhuang Organization not only failed to punish them but even tacitly approved, which is a blatant violation of the rules!"

Brilliant!

As Xi Wei’er finished speaking, the word brilliant surfaced in the minds of most of the people present.

They saw that Xi Wei’er was not only perfectly controlling the situation but also advancing step by step, leading the meeting in the direction she had already planned, which was extremely calculated.

"This matter has nothing to do with the Yanhuang Organization. Xi Wei’er, do not involve the Yanhuang Organization! As for returning the Essence Stones, ha, if you want Essence Stones, we have none, if you want a life, come and take it!"

Chu Xuanji finally spoke. He did not wish to embroil the Yanhuang Organization, as it would put Yan in a difficult and passive position.

"Xi Wei’er, neither the Yanhuang Organization nor the Huaxia Cultivation World has any obligation to help the master and disciple of the Evil Emperor of Huaxia return the Essence Stones. You should rather settle your accounts directly with them!"

Beneath the stage, in the area where the Huaxia Cultivation World delegation was seated, Granny Jiang Jiang Yurong suddenly spoke with schadenfreude.

"Shut up!"

As Jiang Yurong’s voice fell, a low shout resounded.

Yan, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up like a thunderclap exploding, startling everyone and unsettling their minds.

"Yan, you..."

Seeing Yan reprimand her in front of representatives of major forces from the global Cultivation World, Jiang Yurong trembled with anger. She wanted to say something, but sensing the anger in Yan’s eyes, she wisely swallowed the words that had reached her lips.

"I agree with Xi Wei’er’s handling suggestions and further propose an investigation into whether the Evil Emperor of Huaxia was involved in this matter."

At that moment, on the main stage, Caesar, the leader of the European Union’s Cultivator Alliance, spoke up. His timing was impeccable, turning everyone’s attention back to the matter at hand.

"The crimes of the Evil Emperor of Huaxia’s disciple are too severe; only death can atone for them!"

The leader of the Tianzhu Alliance’s Cultivator Organization and the head of Tianzhu Buddhism, Mile, also spoke. Although not explicitly stated, it was tantamount to indirectly expressing support.

Hm?

Hearing Caesar and Mile make their statements in succession, those beneath the stage understood that the situation had become extremely unfavorable for the disciple of the Evil Emperor of Huaxia.

For, if just one of the responsible persons from either the African Union or the Russian Alliance expressed their stance, Xi Wei’er’s handling suggestion would transform into a handling decision!

Just two words, but a world of difference!

Swish!

The next moment, everyone simultaneously turned their gazes towards the leaders of the African Union and the Russian Alliance’s Cultivator Organization, waiting for their stances.

"Let me share my opinion."

At this crucial moment, Yan spoke up, making a final effort, not wanting Chu Xuanji and his disciple Ye Fan to become enemies of the world, "Firstly, everyone has heard the statements from the representative of the Japan Cultivation World and Ye Fan. From their statements, I extracted a fact—Ye Fan’s actions were not out of initiative, but coercion.

That is to say, if the Japan Cultivation World hadn’t gone too far, Ye Fan would never have retaliated so vehemently! For example, Ye Fan raided the Essence Stone Storage of the Japan Cultivation World only after being enraged by their setting up of the Heaven and Earth Net to pursue him and forcibly take his Magic Artifact and Cultivation Technique."

Furthermore, when the Destroy virus erupted, humanity faced the greatest calamity in history. If not for Chu Xuanji and his disciple Ye Fan, who developed the antidote to the virus, I believe, apart from stronger cultivators, no one would have survived.

In light of this, I recommend leniency in handling Ye Fan!"

"Yan, everyone knows that it was the Evil Emperor of Huaxia who first developed the medication to resist the Destroy virus, followed by Chen Daozang of the Qinghong Organization. What does this have to do with the Evil Emperor’s disciple?" Caesar spoke up again from the main stage, challenging the validity of Yan’s previous words.

"Master Yan, they have already set their hearts on my death; no amount of your words will help," Ye Fan also spoke up from below the stage, having anticipated the outcome. He did not believe Yan’s defense would be effective, but he still felt very grateful for Yan’s support at this moment.

Did the disciple of the Evil Emperor truly participate in the drug development?

As Ye Fan spoke, the Buddhist temple fell silent once more, and everyone looked at him while the same question emerged in their minds.

"That’s impossible! How old was the disciple of the Evil Emperor five years ago? How could he possibly have been involved in the drug development?"

"Exactly, you should know that back then, none of the top alchemists around the world were able to develop it successfully at first. It was only later that the Evil Emperor of Huaxia and Chen Daozang shared the formula, and drugs to resist the virus were subsequently developed."

Soon, representatives of two major cultivator families from the American Cultivator Alliance spoke up, casting doubts on what Yan had said before.

With these two speaking, the crowd also felt that the possibility of what Yan had said was extremely slim.

"Yan, why must you place the credit of the Evil Emperor of Huaxia on his disciple? You should know that in Huaxia, there’s a saying that ’merits cannot offset faults.’ Even if, as you said, the disciple of the Evil Emperor of Huaxia was involved in developing the drug to fight the ’destroy’ virus, his crimes cannot be pardoned because of this."

At the chairman’s podium, Xi Wei’er spoke once again, it was quite a cutting remark, "Moreover, it wasn’t only the Evil Emperor of Huaxia who successfully developed the drug to combat the ’destroy’ virus, Chen Daozang did too!"

"Exactly, ’merits cannot offset faults!’"

"Even if the Evil Emperor of Huaxia didn’t share the formula, Chen Daozang would have shared it!"

Soon, Xi Wei’er’s statement received an outpouring of support.

On one hand, Xi Wei’er’s phrase ’merits cannot offset faults’ seemed very reasonable to everyone, and on the other hand, back then, Chen Daozang indeed also developed a drug to resist the ’destroy’ virus.

And this was one of the reasons why Qinghong Organization, led by Chen Daozang, was not besieged and eliminated by the global cultivation world!

Of course, a more important reason was that the force of the Qinghong Organization was simply too strong; including the Yanhuang Organization, no alliance of cultivator organizations dared to confront Qinghong Organization outright, fearing it might stir up global turmoil!

"I agree with Xi Wei’er’s approach."

"I also agree."

Seeing the situation once again lean heavily to one side, the leaders of the African Union and Russian Alliance finally stated their positions.

They chose to support Xi Wei’er!

"The master and disciple of the Evil Emperor of Huaxia are finished!"

Following their statements, the majority of the representatives from various cultivator families and sects made such a judgment.

Meanwhile, on the chairman’s podium, Xi Wei’er, Caesar, and Mile simultaneously directed their gazes at Chu Xuanji, among them Xi Wei’er’s lips curling into a smile unique to victors, unaware whether she was reveling in the thrill of victory or to infuriate Chu Xuanji, or both.

"I think, I need to announce something to everyone here!"

Immediately, without waiting for Chu Xuanji to respond, Yan spoke up again, he stood up abruptly, his gaze sweeping around, his expression extremely serious.

"Yan, what else do you want to say?"

Caesar scoffed, at this point, the matter was settled, and he did not believe Yan could change the outcome for Chu Xuanji and Ye Fan.

"The threat from the ’destroy’ virus to humanity has not disappeared!"

Yan spoke, his voice loud, echoing throughout the Buddhist temple.

"What... what?!"

The next moment.

The whole venue gasped in shock.

Even Xi Wei’er, Caesar, and Mile’s expressions changed!

On the one hand, they deeply knew the terror of the ’destroy’ virus, otherwise, it wouldn’t have been called the greatest calamity in human history!

More importantly, it was common knowledge that back then, as Chu Xuanji and Chen Daozang shared the medicine to combat the ’destroy’ virus one after another, the ’destroy’ virus no longer posed a threat to humanity.

But now, Yan claimed that the hazard of the ’destroy’ virus to humanity had not disappeared, how could this not shock everyone?!

"Back then, the drugs developed by Chu Xuanji and Chen Daozang only temporarily immunized the human body against the ’destroy’ virus, but did not eliminate the ’destroy’ virus in the body. After several years of latency, the ’destroy’ virus will mutate and at that time, it will become an even more terrifying virus!"

Yan revealed the mystery, causing everyone to tense, "That day will be the real catastrophe for all humanity!!"

"Yan, are you trying to scare us?"

"Yan, you need to be responsible for what you say—your statements will cause panic worldwide!"

Caesar and Mile spoke in succession, they did not believe what Yan said.

"I guarantee that everything I have said is true. In as little as three years, or as many as five years, the ’destroy’ virus will reappear amongst us!"

With that, Yan directly made a vow, "If at that time, what I have said does not come to fruition, I will cripple my own cultivation—everyone present can bear witness!!"

Whew!

The venue was stirred up once again!

If previously no one believed what Yan had said, now at this moment, as Yan, one of the strongest in the world, staked his own cultivation on his claim, everyone was moved.

Including Xi Wei’er, everyone believed that Yan did not speak without reason, nor would he stake his reputation and cultivation on a vow just to protect Ye Fan.

"Yan, what exactly are you trying to say??"

After the shock, Xi Wei’er suddenly felt uneasy, blurting out her question.

"In today’s world, only one person has the complete formula to eliminate the ’destroy’ virus."

Yan slowly spoke, pointing at Ye Fan.

The venue fell silent.

Ye Fan became the sole focus!
