Chapter 375: Chapter 375: Swordsmanship Conference

All the Inner Sect Saints had walked out of the Central Holy Temple, and Lin Yi’s gaze also landed on Wan Huayu, who was not far away.

"That Blood Refining Talisman, did you give it to Gu Shentong?"

Lin Yi asked through a voice transmission.

However, Wan Huayu acted as though she knew nothing and laughed, "What Blood Refining Talisman are you talking about? I can’t understand at all."

"Your denial is futile."

Lin Yi had anticipated this and continued, "You intentionally provoked Gu Shentong to take action on your behalf, but what you didn’t expect was his defeat at my hands, which foiled your plan."

"I’m just curious, we have no grudges, why would you use such a vicious method to frame me?"

"How ridiculous."

Wan Huayu scoffed coldly, "Xu Qing, don’t think that just because I have some feelings for you, you can spout nonsense here."

"If you think I want to harm you, then produce evidence instead of fabricating things out of thin air."

After that, Wan Huayu stopped dealing with Lin Yi and left the place directly.

But the murderous intent in her eyes had grown even more intense.

Lin Yi couldn’t coax out any useful information from Wan Huayu and immediately frowned.

He still didn’t understand where he had offended Wan Huayu.

Why would this woman go to such vicious lengths to push him into an irreparable doom?

However, Lin Yi had now basically confirmed that Wan Huayu was a sinister-hearted person, and he must be cautious of this woman.

...

The disappearance of Gu Shentong soon became a sensational piece of news within the Heavenly Sword Holy Land.

Despite deploying a large number of Saints to look for Gu Shentong, they still found nothing.

Gradually, the Heavenly Sword Holy Land had to accept the reality of Gu Shentong’s disappearance.

During this time, Lin Yi had been staying behind closed doors, focusing on preparing for the upcoming Martial Arts Tournament.

Besides, with Wan Huayu, the Snake Scorpion Woman outside, Lin Yi decided to reduce the number of times he went out to avoid her schemes.

It wasn’t that Lin Yi was afraid of this woman, but before handing over the Primordial Heaven Sword to Jian Feidao, it was best to avoid any unnecessary complications.

As time passed, the date for the Holy Land Martial Arts Tournament was drawing near.

The Martial Arts Tournament was to be held at the Sword God Platform within the Inner Sect.

As the most grand event in the Heavenly Sword Holy Land in recent years, at this moment, all the Saints of the Holy Land were heading towards the Sword God Platform, creating a grand spectacle.

However, when Lin Yi arrived near the Sword God Platform, he found that many of the Inner Sect Saints were looking at him with hostile eyes.

Although he had been the subject of hostility from the male Saints of the Heavenly Sword Holy Land because of Wan Huayu, now he found even many female Saints joining their ranks, as if he had done something outrageous.

"What’s going on?"

Lin Yi frowned, it seemed that something new had happened during the time he was in seclusion.

At that moment, a man wearing a mask quietly approached Lin Yi’s side and tugged at his clothes.

"Who are you?"

Lin Yi frowned. "Why are you hiding in broad daylight?"

"It’s me, Gu Xing."

The man whispered.

"Why are you dressed like this?"

Lin Yi looked incredulously at Gu Xing.

Gu Xing said, "If I didn’t dress like this, how would I dare to talk to you? I might be beaten to death tomorrow."

"Looks like you don’t know about the rumors that have been flying around lately."

"What rumors?"

Lin Yi frowned even more.

"Ever since Gu Shentong’s disappearance, there have been rumors that you are the mastermind behind his death."

Gu Xing said softly.

"Gu Shentong was harmed by the Undying Blood Clan, what does that have to do with me?"

Lin Yi spoke sternly.

"They say, if it hadn’t been for your midnight rendezvous with Wan Huayu, why would Gu Shentong have lost his mind and provoked the Undying Blood Clan on his own?"

"And you, you might have witnessed Gu Shentong fighting the Lurker of the Blood Clan, but you chose to stand by and watch, so you bear a great responsibility for Gu Shentong’s death."

Hearing this, Lin Yi couldn’t help but laugh, "They speak as if they saw me standing by with their own eyes, making it sound as if it’s absolutely true."

"If they had really seen it, would it still be called a rumor?"

Gu Xing gave Lin Yi a look, then said, "Anyway, many people believe it now. You should be careful, lest you incur the wrath of the masses."

"Rumors stop with the wise; this is clearly someone deliberately spreading them."

A cold light flashed in Lin Yi’s eyes, "If I find out who it is, I will let them know what the consequences of spreading rumors are."

Such malicious speculation and slander were akin to murder, and Lin Yi wouldn’t easily let go of the rumormongers.

Ignoring the hostile gazes around him, Lin Yi walked straight to the front rows of seats and sat down in the most prominent and visible row.
