Empress: My husband is too strong, I can only lie down and relax.

Chapter 527 A trumped-up charge!

Um! ?

Ling Chenyan was taken aback by these words. She hadn't expected to be questioned so soon after returning to the Lingtian Sect!

"Elder, what do you mean by that?"

Ling Chenyan frowned and asked in return.

"Elder, Junior Sister Chenyan has just returned to the sect. Why are you suddenly questioning her?"

Huangfu Shan's expression suddenly turned cold.

She was unaware that Ling Chenyan would be questioned before this.

This clearly angered her.

"Eldest brother?"

At this moment, another elder, who was also sitting at the head of the main hall, frowned, looking quite puzzled.

"Hmph, you still don't know?"

But the elder snorted coldly, his expression still indifferent, and then suddenly asked, "Then tell me, how did Qin Xian die?"

"Qin Xian, is he dead?"

At this moment, everyone in the hall exclaimed in surprise upon hearing this.

They are still unaware that Qin Xian has not yet emerged from the secret realm.

"Qin Xian didn't come out of the secret realm? Did something happen and he's trapped inside?"

At this moment, the female elder frowned.

"Hmph, Qin Xian's life tablet is already shattered, how could he still be trapped in the secret realm!?"

"And you, still don't know your crime!?"

But the elder snorted coldly and stood up, shouting coldly.

"Elder, what is your reasoning?"

"Even if Qin Xian really died in the secret realm, what does that have to do with Junior Sister Chenyan?"

Huangfu Shan frowned.

"It doesn't matter?"

"Then you can ask Ling Chenyan yourself whether it was she and this person who defeated all the top geniuses of my Lingtian Sect and killed Qin Xian in that secret realm?"

But the elder's expression remained extremely cold, even filled with murderous intent.

"what?"

"Defeated all the top prodigies of the Lingtian Sect?"

At this moment, the many cultivators in the hall were shocked upon hearing this, and their eyes turned to Gu Jiancheng and Ling Chenyan.

It should be noted that, apart from the eldest disciple and Huangfu Shan who were in seclusion and did not enter the secret realm, all eight other disciples of Lingtian Sect entered this time.

Huangfu Shan was clearly the weakest of them all.

Even with the addition of these outside disciples, how could they possibly defeat so many monstrous talents, let alone kill Qin Xian?!

"That's right!"

"We were eliminated early because of them!"

“Junior Sister Chenyan, even if I have lost to you, then you are the only ones who can encounter Senior Brother Qin Xian in the secret realm!”

"Do you still want to deny it now?"

At this moment, Yan Jun led a group of prodigies in.

He hated Gu Jiancheng and Ling Chenyan to the core.

"Yan Jun, you're talking nonsense. You know Chen Yan's abilities. Even if they could defeat you, it wouldn't be surprising."

"But Junior Brother Qin Xian's combat strength is far above yours. Even if Junior Sister Chen Yan were to encounter him, she would not be a match for you!"

Huangfu Shan questioned.

"Hmph, Second Senior Sister, you don't need to take her side. When we encountered Ling Chenyan and this person, we were defeated within three moves each time!"

"This person's supernatural abilities are bizarre, and his combat strength in the secret realm is extremely high!"

"They were the ones who killed Senior Brother Qin Xian!" Yan Jun said angrily.

"fart!"

"Did you all see with your own eyes that I killed Qin Xian?"

But Ling Chenyan could not bear it any longer and roared angrily.

"I...I didn't see it."

Yan Jun was taken aback, then stammered in response.

"Heh, since you didn't see it, what makes you so sure we killed them?"

“That secret realm is extremely dangerous. How could he not have died at the hands of the monsters there?” Ling Chenyan continued angrily.

"Ling Chenyan, don't be so sharp-tongued."

"Qin Xian will never die at the hands of a monster. Today, you have no choice but to confess your guilt!"

"Otherwise, if the Qin family holds us accountable, we can't afford the responsibility!"

But at this moment, the elder seemed to be in a great hurry to convict him.

"Hehe, I see now. Senior Brother is in a hurry to give an explanation to the Qin family, isn't he?"

The female elder couldn't help but sneer upon hearing this.

"if not?"

"They are the prime suspects!"

The Grand Elder snorted coldly.

"In that case, I will absolutely not compromise."

"As long as I am here, there is absolutely no way that Senior Brother will be able to force Chenyan to confess his crimes!"

At this moment, the female elder also suddenly stood up and said.

"Second Junior Sister, do you really want to sacrifice the entire Lingtian Sect just to protect her?"

"As the daughter of the sect leader, she harmed her fellow disciples and offended the Qin family. This is a serious crime!"

"Moreover, my two junior brothers and I have also discussed it. As long as she confesses, we will plead with the Qin family and will absolutely not harm Chenyan's life."

"After all, she is the sect leader's own flesh and blood," the first elder said with a smile in response to the female elder's questioning.

"fart!"

"You've already discussed this? Why didn't I know?"

The female elder was immediately enraged and looked at the three elders on her left and right, saying, "You actually kept this from me?"

“Senior sister, we know that you treat Chenyan like your own daughter, so we didn’t discuss it with you to avoid you protecting her.”

"That's right, we're doing this for the sect's sake!"

The two elders nodded.

"How ridiculous! The sect leader is still in seclusion, not dead, and you're bullying Chenyan like this? Do you really think the sect leader won't blame you?!"

The female elder sneered, her face already showing signs of madness.

"I don't allow it!"

At this moment, Huangfu Shan spoke up from below.

"You have no evidence, yet you force Chen Yan to take the blame. If word gets out, won't you become a laughingstock among other sects?!"

"How could my Lingtian Sect possibly fear a mere Qin family!?"

"Huangfu Shan, you are merely a disciple; you have no right to speak here." The Grand Elder coldly glanced at Huangfu Shan and said, "Otherwise, how could you possibly contend with the Qin family?!"

"As far as I know, you have no connection with the Huangfu family anymore, do you?"

“The Qin family is indeed nothing to fear, Junior Sister Shan is right.” But at this moment, a voice suddenly rang out outside the Elder Hall.

Everyone was taken aback upon hearing this, and then looked outside the hall, only to find that a figure suddenly emerged from the void and descended into the hall.

He was dressed in white, like an ancient immortal, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, and a cascade of white hair.

He simply stood there quietly with his hands behind his back, and everyone held their breath.

Although this person is only at the early stage of the Great Luo Realm, his aura is strong, and the cold frost seems to have frozen the entire hall.

Even the Grand Elder, who sat at the head of the hall, couldn't help but frown.

He was at the late stage of the Great Luo Realm, but he could still feel the terror of this frost aura!

"Ruochen?!"

"You, what are you talking about?"

After a long while, the elder frowned and said.

At this moment, Gu Jiancheng couldn't help but look at the young figure.

Bai Ruochen, the senior disciple of Lingtian Sect, has actually arrived!
