The news of the discussion on Wan Zhang Peak spread to every corner of Haoshan Mountain at an extremely fast speed, as if it had wings.
In just two days, almost all the warriors in Haoshan knew about Ye Chen!
Moreover, he spread it so miraculously.
Some people even regard Ye Chen as the number one person in Haoshan today, whose cultivation level exceeds that of the five top powers.
Otherwise, how could Ye Chen have used his own strength to force his way through the seal and then escape calmly amid the encirclement of the powerful forces?
Of course, some people admire it, and some people hate it and disdain it.
Those who looked down upon Ye Chen thought that Ye Chen was able to break into the emperor's tomb in advance because he knew the mechanism formation extremely well.
Later, he was able to escape from the siege of the top experts in Haoshan Mountain, also because his movement skills were too weird.
Otherwise, Ye Chen is less than twenty years old and no matter how high his cultivation level is, he would not be able to compete head-on with the masters of the five top forces.
…
The outer gate of Piaomiao Sect, Zhenlie Hall.
"How could Ye Chen be a spy of the Phantom Gate?"
Having just received the news, Nangong Liuli suddenly became furious, "I brought him into the Piaomiao Sect all the way. I also know his details clearly. He cannot be a spy of the Phantom Sect!"
"Liu Li, I know how you feel, but judging from Ye Chen's various performances at Wan Zhang Peak, he is indeed the assassin of the Phantom Sect!" Wen Tongwen, the instructor of Zhen Lie Hall, said with emotion.
"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible..."
Nangong Liuli still shook her head with disbelief on her face, "Before entering the Piaomiao Sect, he was just a lowly servant of the Long Family in Qingye City. I saw this with my own eyes!"
I don't know whether it was to convince her master Wen Tongwen or to convince herself. Before Wen Tongwen could say anything else, she couldn't wait to add: "I have been married to Long Hao, the young master of the Long family, since I was a child. That time I forced Long Hao to come.
When my Nangong family was tested, it was Ye Chen who pretended to be Long Hao. Later, I went to Qingye City and saw with my own eyes that the Long family took out Ye Chen's slave contract..."
"Liu Li, now that the matter has come to this, there's no point in trusting Ye Chen anymore!"
Wen Tongwen couldn't stand it anymore and said seriously: "Actually, my teacher is just like you, and I am willing to believe that Ye Chen is innocent, but what is the use of our belief?"
"Now not only our sect leader, but also the four top forces of Wanxiang Mountain, Soul Palace, Cangyu City, Jinchan Temple, as well as other large and small forces in Haoshan, regard Ye Chen as an assassin of the Phantom Sect!"
"In addition, Ye Chen walked out of the emperor's tomb in full view of everyone, and fled with the treasures left by Emperor Haoran. Even if we are determined to protect Ye Chen, after all, no one will believe us, and no one will believe us.
Someone takes our opinions seriously!”
"But, but..."
Nangong Liuli wanted to say something else, but only halfway through her words, she was too weak to say any more.
Although she was extremely unwilling, she had to admit that what her master said was true.
With the situation Ye Chen was facing now, there was nothing she could do.
…
The inner gate of Qilin Hall.
"Junior Sister Yu, have you heard? That Ye Chen is actually an assassin of the Phantom Sect!"
As soon as he heard the news, Liu He immediately found Yu Yezhu.
"I heard that too!"
Yu Yezhu nodded, but his expression was extremely complicated.
"I was still puzzled before, but now it seems that everything makes sense!"
Liu He smiled bitterly and said: "When he came with us all the way from Luochuan City, he was definitely not pretending to be powerful!"
"Yes, he was originally a big shot in the Phantom Sect. No wonder Tu Dao, the assassin of the Phantom Sect, was so frightened that he fled on the spot after seeing him!" Yu Yezhu laughed at himself.
Liu He added: "There is also the inn in Luochuan City. I inquired about it later. That inn is actually controlled by people from the Phantom Sect behind the scenes!"
"In other words, both the mysterious young man who defeated us and the mysterious old man who appeared later should be the strong ones of the Phantom Sect!"
"But after Ye Chen appeared, the other party compromised!"
"Now it seems that Ye Chen didn't fool the other party by pretending to be powerful, but those people had already recognized Ye Chen's identity, so they let us go!"
Liu He was still frightened, and at the same time he felt that he was extremely stupid.
Of course, I am more than happy!
Because all the way from Luochuan City, he couldn't stand Ye Zhu and Ye Chen being too close, so he targeted Ye Chen everywhere.
But Ye Chen remained indifferent to all his provocations.
At that time, he thought that the other party was pretending to be serious in order to win Ye Zhu's favor.
Now I realize that Ye Chen just didn't take himself seriously and was too lazy to get to know him.
Otherwise, with the strength Ye Chen showed at Wan Zhang Peak, if he really wanted to kill himself, it would be no different than crushing an ant.
…
The outer gate of Piaomiao Sect, Wanfa Hall.
"No, I absolutely do not believe that the master is a spy of the Phantom Sect!"
"I don't believe it either!"
"Master is so kind, how could he be a spy from the Phantom Sect who infiltrated our Piaomiao Sect?"
"There must be some misunderstanding!"
"Yes, let's go to the Presbytery to appeal to the elders and let them find out!"
After the news about Wan Zhang Peak came, Si Wenkang, Fang Ruotong, Liu Xuan'er and other Wan Fa Hall disciples were all filled with indignation and indignation.
It can be said that without Ye Chen, they might still be ridiculed and treated as waste in some unknown corner today.
You must know that when they tested their cultivation talents, none of them met the minimum standard for entry.
However, Ye Chen accepted them as an exception and used some unique methods to maximize their potential.
So much so that not only some of them have been promoted to the inner sect, but they are also very popular among the outer sect, making countless other branch disciples envious.
One can imagine how deeply they feel for Ye Chen, their mentor.
Once it was rumored that Ye Chen was a spy of the Phantom Sect, how could they accept it?
"The matter has come to this, there is no point in panicking!"
At this time, Si Wenkang seemed to have thought of something, and stood up and said: "Since the master has displayed the supreme secret skill of the Phantom Gate in public, it means that this matter cannot be fake!"
"Senior Brother Si, what exactly do you want to say?" Fang Ruotong frowned and asked, "Do you not believe in the master and want to sever the master-disciple relationship with him?"
In addition to Fang Ruotong, the other four Wanfa Hall disciples also cast disappointed looks at Si Wenkang.
"Where are you thinking? Master is very kind to us. No matter what, it is impossible for me to sever the master-disciple relationship with him!"
Si Wenkang shook his head, lowered his voice and said, "I just want to ask, if this is true, where should we go from here?"
"Senior Brother Si means..."
"There are only two roads before us!"
Si Wenkang waved his hand and said forcefully: "First, sever the master-disciple relationship with the master, continue to stay in the Piaomiao Sect, and then resign yourself to fate and be at the mercy of others!"
"second……"
There was a look of perseverance in his eyes, as if he were going into the sea of fire, and he lowered his voice and said: "From now on, when we leave the Piaomiao Sect, no matter whether the master is a member of the Phantom Sect or not, we will follow him to the death!"
Fang Ruotong and others' expressions changed.
Everyone understands what Si Wenkang's two decisions mean.
Choosing to stay would mean severing the master-disciple relationship with Ye Chen, and their own destiny would from now on be controlled by the whims of the senior leaders of the Piaomiao Sect.
If they choose to continue to follow Ye Chen, not only will they be regarded as traitors by the Piaomiao Sect, but also, like Ye Chen, they will become the enemies of all forces in Haoshan from now on.
"I choose the second path!"
"I also choose the second option!"
"No matter who the master is, as long as he recognizes us as disciples, we will follow him to the death!"
Although they knew that choosing the second option would lead to disaster, they still made this difficult decision after looking at each other.
"Very good, what I'm waiting for is your words!"
After receiving affirmative answers from Fang Ruotong and others, Si Wenkang's eyes became more determined.
"Since everyone agrees, don't delay any longer and pack your things quickly. You must leave here before others react, otherwise..."
"Hey, you want to escape now, don't you think it's too late?"
Before Si Wenkang finished speaking, a ferocious laugh came from outside the gate.
