Chapter 270 Successfully Diverted Attention
However, some fires, once lit, can never be extinguished.
The atmosphere in Zhou Peng's room was suffocatingly depressing.
Elder Zhou, Zhou Zheng, stood by the bed with a tired face, looking at his pale, unconscious son, his eyes filled with unrelieved heartache and self-blame.
Mrs. Zhou Wan, who was standing by, was still crying non-stop.
"Master, please think of a solution! Peng'er is our only child!"
"He was beaten like this, and as a father, are you just going to watch?"
"That little bastard named Yun Chen!"
"You must catch him!"
"Cut him into pieces and avenge our Peng'er!"
"Old Zhou, please say something!"
"Shut up!"
Zhou Zheng was already upset, and her nagging gave him a splitting headache. He finally couldn't help but yelled, "You're crying all the time! What a disgrace!"
"I told you, I have my own opinion!"
Zhou Wan was stunned by his yelling. She closed her mouth in grievance, but was still sobbing softly.
at this time.
"boom!"
The door was slammed open.
One of Zhou Zheng's trusted disciples, with a pale face, rushed in crawling.
"Elder...Elder..."
He was out of breath, his eyes were filled with fear, and he seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"How can you be so flustered!" Zhou Zheng asked angrily, "What happened?"
"Elder...you...you still..."
"Listen for yourself..."
Wang Wu trembled as he pulled out a sound-recording stone from his bosom and offered it to him with both hands: "Outside...outside...it's spread like wildfire..."
"It's gone viral?"
Zhou Zheng frowned and took the sound stone in confusion.
What could have caused the entire sect to go crazy?
With a hint of confusion, he injected spiritual power into it.
next second.
"Ling Xiaotian! Peng'er is your own flesh and blood! You can't just stand by and watch him die..."
"boom--!!"
Zhou Zheng froze in place, motionless, the sound stone in his hand slipped weakly and fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
His eyes underwent a drastic change in just a few breaths.
In the end, it turned into overwhelming rage and shame of being fooled for decades, enough to burn everything!
He felt like a huge joke!
A complete idiot!
The only son he held in his hands, the one he considered his future hope, the one he would do anything to avenge...
It turned out to be the child of his "good brother"?
You've been wearing an emerald green hat for decades, and you're totally unaware of it?
Still treating other people's sons as treasures?
"Master, what's wrong with you? Find a solution quickly..."
Zhou Wan, who was standing by, hadn't reacted yet. Seeing that his face looked bad, she kept urging him anxiously.
"Snapped--!!"
Her answer was an extremely loud slap in the face!
Zhou Zheng used all his strength to slap Zhou Wan, sending her flying and hitting her hard against the wall. Blood was gushing out of her mouth and nose, and she was stunned on the spot.
"Bitch!"
He no longer looked at the stunned woman, and he was even too lazy to look at the "son" on the bed whom he once loved so much.
He kicked the door open and rushed out!
The evil spirit is overwhelming!
The murderous intent that was almost tangible swept through every corner of Qingyun Sect.
The disciples along the way felt a chill down their spines, and they all moved away, looking in horror at the usually calm Elder Zhou.
Ling Xiaotian!
"I'm not done with you!"
……
Qingyun Sect, main hall.
The atmosphere in the hall was extremely solemn, making people feel breathless.
Sect leader Ling Xiaotian was pacing back and forth anxiously with his hands behind his back.
His face was ashen, and veins popped out on his forehead.
Below, several trusted elders looked at each other in bewilderment, sweating profusely.
"Sect Master, I'm afraid the news...can't be suppressed."
An elder spoke cautiously: "Tianyuan Xuanfu and several other sects have already... spread the news."
"Waste! All of them are waste!" Ling Xiaotian turned around suddenly and kicked over the incense burner beside him. The copper burner rolled to the ground with a loud noise, and the incense ash inside was scattered all over the ground.
"Why did I raise you? You can't even handle such a small matter?"
He pointed at their noses and yelled, "I told you, block it! Block the news completely!"
"Anyone who dares to spread even one word will be killed without mercy! Do you hear me?"
Several elders were silent and nodded in agreement, but no one dared to really continue the conversation.
Are you kidding me?
Now the news is no longer just circulating secretly, but has exploded outside!
In the entire Qingshi City, and even in the surrounding cultivation forces, who isn't talking about this matter?
The leader of Qingyun Sect had an affair with the elder's wife, and even his son was the leader's child!
This is simply the biggest scandal in the world of cultivation in thousands of years!
Block it? How? Sew everyone's mouths shut?
"Sect Master, the most important thing right now is... to appease Elder Zhou."
Another older elder stubbornly advised, "In this matter... after all, we were in the wrong first."
"Elder Zhou has worked hard for the sect and made great contributions. As long as we..."
He hasn't finished speaking yet.
"boom--!!"
With a loud bang, the heavy vermilion lacquered door of the main hall was smashed to pieces from the outside by brute force!
Wood chips were flying and smoke and dust were everywhere.
A figure, filled with murderous intent, stood against the light, like a Shura crawling out of hell.
It’s Zhou Zheng!
"Ling Xiaotian!"
He held the knife and stepped into the hall step by step.
The faces of the elders in the hall changed drastically. They stood up and exclaimed, "Elder Zhou!"
"Brother Zhou! You..."
Ling Xiaotian's pupils shrank sharply, and he forced a smile, trying to calm the other person down.
"Brother Zhou! Listen to my explanation! This... this is a misunderstanding!"
"It's a conspiracy! Someone is definitely behind this, trying to drive a wedge between us brothers!"
"brother?"
"What a brother!"
"I treat you as a brother, but you treat me as a fool?"
"I worked so hard to guard the sect for you, and I risked my life for you!"
"You're fucking sleeping with my woman behind my back?"
"Ling Xiaotian, you bastard, you've gone too far in bullying me!"
Before he finished speaking, the heavy black iron sword in Zhou Zheng's hand tore through the air and slashed straight towards Ling Xiaotian!
This knife was swung out with hatred, without any reservation!
"Sect Master, be careful!"
"Zhou Zheng, you're crazy!"
Ling Xiaotian dodged to the side, smashing the rosewood chair behind him into pieces!
Seeing this, several elders did not dare to hesitate any longer. They took out their magic weapons and rushed forward.
"Elder Zhou! Calm down!"
"Speak well if you have something to say!"
“Ding! Ding! Clang—!”
The disciples outside heard the fierce fighting and roaring coming from the hall, and their faces turned pale and they were at a loss.
The sky...is about to fall.
……
There was silence in the guest room of Tianyuan Xuanfu.
Yun Chen sat cross-legged on the bed with his eyes closed, regulating his breathing.
With a creaky sound, the door was gently pushed open.
