Chapter 1061 - 1061 1047 Dead End

Chapter 1061: Chapter 1047: Dead End Chapter 1061: Chapter 1047: Dead End Su Zhan Ze asked, “Disfigured?”

Qiao Haoyu was also shocked.

Xiang Zi nodded and said, “Mhm, when he returns, you will know everything.”

Ren Xiongbei had exerted all his efforts to shake off his pursuers, and these past few days, he hadn’t even had a good sleep. Those people were all after his Dragon Slaying Secret Manual, openly claiming they wanted to avenge Liu Yunzhi and Fang Ziren, but in truth, each harbored their own schemes, aiming to capture them both and seize the Dragon Slaying Secret Manual.

Having lost many subordinates, he finally made it back to the foot of Immortal City Mountain. As long as he got back to Immortal City, even if only considered momentarily safe, other matters could wait until later.

That afternoon, as they arrived beneath Immortal City, about to go through the gateway, they found the city gates had been sealed. Yuan Jingxing and Qiao Haoyu stood atop the city walls, with Xiang Zi hiding behind them.

Ren Xiongbei was taken aback and shouted, “Damn you, Qiao Haoyu and Yuan Jingxing, what the hell are you two doing? Open the city gates at once!”

Gazing down at the anxious Ren Xiongbei, Qiao Haoyu said, “The acts you and your son have committed are now known to everyone in the realms of immortals and demons. How dare you return to Immortal City, do you intend to bring disaster upon us?”

Ren Xiongbei glared at Qiao Haoyu and retorted, “What are you talking about!”

“Did you think we wouldn’t know? You killed Liu Yunzhi, drove Fang Ziren insane, and now the entire Immortal and Demon Realms are furious, hunting for you and your son. They’ll soon be upon Immortal City, are you here to doom us all?”

Ren Xiongbei raged, “Qiao Haoyu, you son of a bitch, do you know that I’m the true Sect Leader of Immortal City? Open the city gates right this instant!”

“You’re no longer the Sect Leader of our Immortal City Sect. We don’t need a Sect Leader like you in Immortal City Sect. I advise you to leave quickly. I’ve heard that the Sect Leader of Qingxuan Sect, Wan Shajiang, and the Sect Leader of Heavenly City Sect, Xiong Shuobo, will be arriving soon, and they are coming for revenge.”

“Damn it!” This damn fat pig is getting bolder and bolder. Yuan Jingxing didn’t utter a word, clearly siding with Qiao Haoyu, and they wouldn’t allow them entrance into the city. Ren Xiongbei yelled, “Liu Yunzhi and Fang Ziren weren’t harmed by us, nor did we steal the Dragon Slaying Secret Manual.”

At that, Qiao Haoyu chuckled and said, “Oh, the whole world already knows what you’ve done, and yet you still deny it? No wonder they say you’re full of lies, telling falsehoods right to our faces.”

Yuan Jingxing said, “You better hurry up and leave, don’t drag us down with you.”

Ren Xiongbei and Ren Haotian were completely unprepared for this.

Enraged, Ren Xiongbei shouted, “It wasn’t me who killed Liu Yunzhi. It was Su Zhan Ze who made Fang Ziren go mad, and he was the one who stole the Dragon Slaying Secret Manual. He was the one behind it all, planting fakes on us.”

Yuan Jingxing was taken aback, and Qiao Haoyu was equally stunned.

Xiang Zi leapt out, yelling, “Oh, you really have a way with words, flinging dirt on others. Everyone caught you red-handed, and still, you blame someone else.”

Ren Xiongbei was startled, not expecting Xiang Zi to have returned to Immortal City ahead of them, seemingly with everything arranged beforehand.

Ren Haotian raged, “Traitor, it was you who helped Su Zhan Ze set us up, it was you who did all this!”

Xiang Zi glowered back and barked, “What proof do you have that it was us who did it?”

Ren Haotian said, “Su Zhan Ze secretly learned my father’s martial arts, you secretly colluded with Su Zhan Ze, sending us false messages, using the Heavenly Pearl to trick Xiong Shuobo into mistaking it for the Immortal Pearl, driving Fang Ziren mad. Then you bribed Lin Ruoqin to switch the Red Volume, framing us for the crime, don’t think we don’t know.”

Xiang Zi glanced at Yuan Jingxing and said with a sneer, “Heh, where’s your evidence? These are purely your fabrications. Who would believe such things?”

Indeed, Ren Haotian could not present any proof and murmured, “Yuan Jingxing, if we apprehend Xiang Zi and put him under torture, he will surely be compelled to tell the truth. Please, just believe me.”

Yuan Jingxing glanced at Xiang Zi.

“You really have a knack for slander, but no one here is going to believe your words. I know you resent me for following Su Zhan Ze, but you can’t employ such malicious tactics and smear us like this.”

Xiang Zi continued, “Having caught you in the act, and now you claim Su Zhan Ze used your martial arts, yet everyone here knows your martial arts are not taught to outsiders. Who could possibly know your martial arts? Ask Yuan Jingxing if he believes it.”

Yuan Jingxing listened intently; indeed, although everyone was from the Immortal City Sect, it was common knowledge that Ren Xiongbei’s martial arts were never passed on, not even to his own son.

Ren Xiongbei, pointing at Xiang Zi, cursed, “My secret martial arts manual was definitely stolen by you and given to Su Zhan Ze!”

“Ha, you really have a way with words. I know you’re unhappy that I’ve thrown my lot in with Su Zhan Ze, but you can’t just slander me like this, especially without any evidence, just like your claim that Wan Shajiang killed Liu Yunzhi. Who would believe your words?”

Qiao Haoyu was dumbfounded, uncertain whether what Ren Xiongbei said was true.

Xiang Zi said to Yuan Jingxing and Qiao Haoyu, “Two leaders, please don’t listen to this guy spouting nonsense. He and his son have done something bad and now they don’t know how to find a scapegoat. They’re looking for a plausible explanation, randomly accusing people, purely to escape punishment and clear their own names. They’re not to be trusted.”

Qiao Haoyu also found it quite bewildering, and although he was dubious, he still said, “Don’t worry, we won’t heed the baseless claims of father and son.” In the past few days, he had heard many things about the father-son duo, how in Lotus Leaf Town they accused Liu Yunzhi of killing people at Wan Shajiang, and claimed that they had not stolen the Dragon Slaying Secret Manual, yet the Red and Black Volumes of the manual were found in their possession.

Xiang Zi continued, “You have already been caught red-handed by the Qingxuan Sect and the Heavenly City Sect, the Red and Black Volumes of the Dragon Slaying Secret Manual were found on you. Are you saying those volumes are fake?”

Qiao Haoyu had no doubts left after hearing this. Indeed, if both the Red and Black Volumes were found on someone’s person, how could it not be true?

Ren Xiongbei shouted, “They are fake!”

“Fake?” Xiang Zi asked. “And yet you scrambled to escape?”

“They are indeed fake, but I didn’t know it at the time. Now, I can let you see for yourself.”

“Heh, who would believe that? You changed the content, thinking you could muddle through? The members of both Heavenly City Sect and Qingxuan Sect saw you holding the Red and Black Volumes of the Dragon Slaying Secret Manual with their own eyes. And you dare to say it was Su Zhanze who stole the manual? Aren’t you afraid of retribution, of severing your lineage?” Xiang Zi turned to Yuan Jingxing and said, “Yuan Jingxing, he saw me with Su Zhanze and felt betrayed. Now with no way out, he’s spouting nonsense, trying to pin the blame on us. You must open your eyes, and not be fooled by his ludicrous tales.”

Yuan Jingxing also felt that Ren Xiongbei’s words were incredible, especially since the Red and Black Volumes were found on him—a fact witnessed by all. There seemed to be no falsehood there, and furthermore, he had fled after the theft. He asked, “Do you have any evidence for what you just claimed?”

Ren Haotian shouted, “Catch Xiang Zi and give him a beating, and he’ll confess to everything.”

Xiang Zi shook his head. “Bullshit. You think you can torture a confession out of me? What a nefarious plot. How shameless can you be?”

Qiao Haoyu shook his head. Knowing that Ren Xiongbei disliked Su Zhanze and hearing Xiang Zi’s words, he believed Xiang Zi even more and said, “Xiang Zi, rest assured, I absolutely won’t heed Ren Xiongbei’s wild allegations.”

Xiang Zi went on, “If you ask me, we should capture both father and son and torture them until they give up the martial arts manual.”

Qiao Haoyu thought this made sense and looked to Yuan Jingxing, saying, “Indeed, by capturing them and applying pressure, we could force them to hand over the martial arts manual.”

Yuan Jingxing said, “No, we can’t. Even if we truly found those items on them, it would attract people from the Immortal and Demon Domains, which would not be good for us. Those volumes are nothing but trouble.” He had heard that Liu Yunzhi was killed because of the Dragon Slaying Secret Manual.

Qiao Haoyu then dismissed the idea.

Yuan Jingxing shouted, “You had better leave quickly. We won’t believe your tall tales. The Qingxuan Sect and the Heavenly City Sect are already at the foot of the mountain, and who knows when they will come up. You should hurry.”

Although Yuan Jingxing didn’t particularly like Ren Xiongbei, he had grown up playing with Ren Haotian, and despite the reprehensible things they had done, there was still a trace of reluctance in his heart.

Ren Haotian looked at him and shouted, “Can’t you let us in first? Yes, our relationship hasn’t been good these past two years, but after all, we grew up together. You treated me like a brother, and I treated you like one.”

These words were indeed moving to Yuan Jingxing, but he still regained his composure and said, “I have to consider the people of Immortal City. I can’t just think about you two. You’d better leave quickly.”

Ren Haotian felt very helpless. Just when he had finally returned to Immortal City, they wouldn’t let him in. Meanwhile, the chasers had reached Crane City and could come after them at any moment. If they couldn’t enter, they might be captured.

By then, they would surely be coerced in every possible way and wouldn’t listen to their words.

Ren Haotian shouted, “It’s all true, everything was orchestrated by Su Zhanze. The Dragon Slaying Secret Manual is in his hands.”

“Why don’t you just say Liu Yunzhi was killed by Su Zhanze as well? Have you no shame?” Xiang Zi asked.

Ren Xiongbei, already provoked, rushed forward, intending to force his way in, but they were ready for him. Fireballs flew and lightning struck. Even with his high martial arts skills and the Immortal Pearl in his grasp, Ren Xiongbei couldn’t break through successfully.

Yuan Jingxing and the others were prepared, with over a hundred masters waiting for them.

Xiang Zi said coldly, “Look, you’ve revealed your true colors, acting like a cornered beast.” He called out and released a lightning barrier.

Ren Haotian tried to help his father, but it was useless. Although the defenses of Immortal City weren’t as strong as before, they were still formidable enough to block them, posing no problem at all.

Ren Xiongbei barely had forty men with him; how could he possibly break through? He was quickly repelled.

Lightning struck Ren Haotian, leaving him dazed and disoriented, unable to tell north from south.

He stared up at the city walls in stunned silence.

Soon, Ren Xiongbei was also driven back down.
