Chapter 1509 - 1506: The Mystery of the Zhu Family’s Rise!

Chapter 1509: Chapter 1506: The Mystery of the Zhu Family’s Rise!

Zhu Chang watched the images appear on the Recording Orb, dumbstruck and terrified, he said, "Stop! Stop! Damn it, stop at once!"

Zhu Chang erupted in anger, his Perfect Yin Saint Realm Cultivation suppressing everyone present.

Zhuo Lian snorted coldly, and with a raise of his Sharp Sword, forced Zhu Chang into a retreat!

Nie Xiong laughed lightly and said, "Since Senior Zhu Chang no longer wishes to watch, then I shall not continue."

"Besides, I’ve already made three copies of this matter; one was sent to the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, another to the Emperor of the Litian Dynasty, and the last to the Tianbao Tower!"

Nie Xiong said with a light chuckle.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Chang was like struck by lightning, his face turning deathly pale, his Eyes bloodshot as he stared at Nie Xiong, appearing as if he wished to devour Nie Xiong alive: "This is Zhu Yi’s affair with the Valley of Demons, which has nothing to do with my Zhu Family!"

"I’ve already said that when Zhu Yi was pursued and killed until death for his secret dealings with the Valley of Demons fifty years ago, since then I’ve had no contact with him whatsoever, and I don’t even know if he’s been alive or what he’s been doing all these years!"

Zhu Chang coldly stated.

"Is that so? According to what Senior Zhu Chang has said, after Zhu Yi died, there was no further contact. But before his death, your connection with him was quite intimate. So, did you or did you not know about his collusion with the Valley of Demons?"

Nie Xiong said with a smile.

Upon hearing these words, Zhu Chang indignantly responded, "Do not spout such nonsense!"

Nie Xiong shook his head and said, "Alright, Senior Zhu Chang, I’m not here today to quibble with words. Since you can deny the events in the Recording Orb, then what about this matter?"

Zhu Chang curiously asked, "What matter? What else is there?"

Nie Xiong looked puzzled and said to Zhu Chang with a smile, "What? Has Senior Zhu Chang forgotten?"

Zhu Chang was stunned, not understanding Nie Xiong’s meaning.

Nie Xiong laughed lightly, "Ha ha, it seems that Senior Zhu Chang never anticipated that when you sent Zhu Yi and the four Demon Saints of the Valley of Demons to Dongshuang City to kill us, they would end up dying at our hands."

"Since Senior Zhu Chang hadn’t expected that, I guess it’s no surprise that the ledger detailing the Zhu Family’s dealings and benefits with the Valley of Demons was found in Zhu Yi’s Storage Bag!"

Nie Xiong chuckled, pulling out a ten-inch-thick book from his Storage Bag!

Seeing this ledger, Zhu Chang’s pupils dilated, and his Face displayed an expression of incredulity.

"This thick volume traces back over a hundred years, revealing how your Zhu Family has been continually collaborating with the Valley of Demons, selling vast numbers of the Human Clan to the Hanhai Demon Kingdom in exchange for massive profits!"

"And here, are both your seal and Zhu Yi’s seal!"

"Senior Zhu Chang, do you still dare to claim your dealings with the Valley of Demons are pure?"

Nie Xiong, tightly gripping the ledger, pressed the question with a cold voice.

"What!"

"Zhu Chang is actually involved with the Valley of Demons?"

"Damn it, I knew it; how could Zhu Chang be innocent when his brother Zhu Yi colluded with the Valley of Demons? How could he possibly escape the blame?"

"I was puzzled from the start; a hundred years ago, the Zhu Family was just a minor Family, how did they suddenly become one of the foremost great Families within the Litian Dynasty in merely a hundred years?"

Many guests were expressing their outrage.

Nie Xiong said coldly, "Do you want me to continue?"

"Zhu Chang, your Family was just a mundane Family within the Litian Dynasty a hundred years ago, and you were just a Martial Artist in the Heaven Martial Realm who had a low Martial Soul and insufficient talent."

"If you had not colluded with the Valley of Demons, how did you manage to achieve the Perfect Yin Saint Realm in just a century?"

"If you were not in collusion with the Valley of Demons, how could your Zhu Family rise to become a great Family of the Litian Dynasty in just a hundred years?"

"If you haven’t colluded with the Valley of Demons, how could your son, Zhu Lei, possibly become the Junior Sword Venerate of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect!"

"If you haven’t colluded with the Valley of Demons, how could your daughter, Zhu Bi, have become the favored concubine at the Emperor of the Litian Dynasty’s side!"

"If you haven’t colluded with the Valley of Demons, then how do you explain the ledger in my hands?"

Nie Xiong roared furiously at Zhu Chang, his voice thunderous, every word piercing Zhu Chang’s heart like thousands of sharp swords, making Zhu Chang lose all sense of reason.

"You’re talking nonsense! Nonsense! The ledger has always been kept by my ninth mistress! How could Zhu Yi possibly have the ledger!"

Zhu Chang shouted back angrily.

Hiss—

Hearing Zhu Chang say these words with bloodshot eyes, all the warriors present were dumbfounded, staring at Zhu Chang in disbelief.

"I..." It was only then Zhu Chang realized what he had said, looking around at the warriors with a panicked face, astounded: "You little thing, you’ve ambushed me!"

"Oh, so it’s with your mistress, I must say, Patriarch Zhu Chang, you’re indeed cunning and shrewd, to hide such important evidence with such an unremarkable mistress."

"No wonder Senior Brother Dongfang searched the Zhu Family’s treasury and couldn’t find any clues about the Valley of Demons!"

Nie Xiong exclaimed as if he had an epiphany.

Without delay, Nie Xiong took out a Sound Transmission Talisman from his chest and shouted, "Senior Brother Dongfang, that item is with Zhu Chang’s ninth mistress, we’ve seen her portrait last night, and she hasn’t been seen at this banquet, she must be in the backyard."

Zhu Chang stared blankly at the Sound Transmission Talisman in Nie Xiong’s hands, shocked.

At this moment, Zhu Chang finally understood that Lin Bai, who hadn’t appeared all this time, was actually searching for evidence linking the Valley of Demons and the Zhu Family.

A calm voice came from the Sound Transmission Talisman: "I understand."

"Bastard!" Zhu Chang roared furiously: "Someone, go to the backyard and find Yuzhu..."

Zhu Chang’s ninth mistress was named Yuzhu.

Nie Xiong laughed lightly and said, "Patriarch Zhu Chang, there’s no need. Senior Brother Dongfang is always quick, I believe your ninth mistress is already in Senior Brother Dongfang’s hands by now."

"What!" Zhu Chang glared at Nie Xiong through gritted teeth.

Swoosh—

At this moment, a rainbow light shot across the clouds, appearing above the Zhu Family’s residence – a man in a Five-Color Disciple Robe, holding a beautiful woman who looked as delicate as a flower.

This man in the Five-Color Disciple Robe, slowly descended to the ground.

"Family Head, save me, save me..." Yuzhu called out to Zhu Chang.

Lin Bai directly threw Yuzhu to Zhu Chang, and Zhu Chang also noticed that Yuzhu’s Storage Bag had fallen into Lin Bai’s hands.

At this moment, Lin Bai threw Yuzhu to Zhu Chang without killing her, but seeing that Yuzhu had lost her Storage Bag, Zhu Chang flew into a rage and with a single palm strike, instantly killed Yuzhu in mid-air!

Lin Bai was taken aback, his eyes turning cold: "Even if you’ve been married just for a day, you owe a hundred days of grace! How could you be so ruthless!"

"Give me the Storage Bag!" Zhu Chang demanded, glaring at Lin Bai.

Lin Bai chuckled lightly and opened Yuzhu’s Storage Bag, which contained a miscellaneous array of items, including lots of beautiful clothes and jewelry, as well as many rouge.

Lin Bai searched for a while and then took out a thick book from the Storage Bag.

Upon opening it, it was clear that it recorded every single transaction between the Zhu Family and the Valley of Demons!

Seeing these items, Lin Bai’s gaze turned icy cold: "Patriarch Zhu Chang, I never expected that your family had started transacting with the Valley of Demons over one hundred and twenty years ago!"
