Alchemy Sovereign Against the Heaven
Chapter 570 - 561: Confess Without Being Pressed

Chapter 570: Chapter 561: Confess Without Being Pressed

"Is it really the Senior Disciple who sent people to deal with Jing Yan?" At this moment, even the disciples of Heavenly Pillar Peak began to doubt themselves.

Otherwise, for no reason at all, why would Mo Wangchen come to provoke Heavenly Pillar Peak?

Moreover, he had clearly stated that he was here to cause trouble for Yang Zhiyuan!

Although they were all disciples of Heavenly Pillar Peak, safeguarding Heavenly Pillar Peak and Yang Zhiyuan was tantamount to protecting their own dignity.

But if Yang Zhiyuan had really done such a despicable deed, that would be an entirely different matter.

"Do you not have a clear conscience?" Mo Wangchen scoffed, staring directly at the other party. After a long pause, he suddenly spoke, "Since you say I’m slandering you, then today, I will slander you once more. Among the Sect’s ten grave sins, there’s one that states no one shall divulge the Sect’s Dao Techniques."

"Yang Zhiyuan, for secretly inscribing the Sect Dao Techniques within the Heavenly Spirit Pavilion and selling them to outsiders, what should your crime be?!"

"What?!"

"Selling Sect Dao Techniques to others?!" As soon as Mo Wangchen uttered these words, a look of shock appeared on everyone’s faces around the arena.

In some respects, leaking the Sect Dao Techniques is the most serious of the ten grave sins.

If anyone dared to commit such an act, being stripped of cultivation and expelled from the Sect would be the least of their punishment!

"You!" Yang Zhiyuan’s face underwent a drastic change, feeling that things were going badly; he had not expected Mo Wangchen to actually reveal this matter.

"Nonsense! Slander! Mo Wangchen, stop causing unwarranted trouble here!" A male disciple stepped forward from the direction of the Heavenly Pillar Peak disciples; he was also a follower of Yang Zhiyuan, and he too had been commanded by Yang Zhiyuan to engrave and disseminate the Dao Techniques.

"Whether it’s slander or there is truth to it, I believe the Sect would ascertain the truth if they decided to investigate," Mo Wangchen said indifferently.

If he was going to act, he had to completely bring down Yang Zhiyuan and eliminate future troubles once and for all!

"How do you propose to investigate?" Yang Zhiyuan scoffed coldly. He believed that some matters had been well arranged in advance and that the prior transactions had been exceedingly secretive, leaving no traces behind. Not even if the Sect exerted its full effort in the investigation could anything be uncovered.

Now, as long as he refused to admit anything, what could Mo Wangchen do?

"Simple, conduct a Soul Search on you!"

"Soul Search?" Before Yang Zhiyuan could speak, the disciple who had come forward earlier addressed Mo Wangchen with a sneer, "Based on a single accusation from you, you want to casually slander others and conduct a Soul Search on the Senior Disciple; Mo Wangchen, do you really think you’re a Saint?"

"That’s right, if I say you’ve leaked the Sect Dao Techniques, would you let us perform a Soul Search on you?" another person came forward, also a disciple following Yang Zhiyuan.

"As the Heavenly Pillar Peak’s Senior Disciple, Yang Zhiyuan holds a prestigious status; it would indeed be somewhat inappropriate to conduct a Soul Search on him..."

Under the gaze of all present, Mo Wangchen actually said such a thing.

Everyone was taken aback for a moment, and the next, they heard Mo Wangchen suddenly speak, "A search on him may not be permissible, but searching the souls of you two is viable. You’re just ordinary disciples without any secrets; if you truly have nothing to hide, I presume you shouldn’t fear a Soul Search, right?"

"You!" Upon hearing Mo Wangchen’s words, both men’s expressions changed. However, before they could say anything, they saw several streams of Divine Rainbow shooting out from the depths of Heavenly Pillar Peak. With incredible speed, they arrived above the area in the blink of an eye.

"The Heavenly Pillar Sage and a group of Elders from Heavenly Pillar Peak!"

Many in the crowd were startled. Had the development of this issue finally alarmed the higher-ups of the Sect?

"Compulsory Soul Searching is inhumane, and our Immortal Sect of Inquiry, how can it succumb to such measures? Nephew Mo, do you have any evidence of Yang Zhiyuan and the others leaking the Sect Dao Techniques?" The Heavenly Pillar Sage spoke up, looking at Mo Wangchen with slightly furrowed brows.

If Mo Wangchen couldn’t provide some substantial evidence, it simply wasn’t possible to directly Soul Search people like Yang Zhiyuan.

Yet, with Mo Wangchen’s status as the Senior Disciple of Lingdong Peak, along with his terrifying potential, how could there not be whispers in the wind?

Could it be that Yang Zhiyuan really divulged Sect Dao Skills?

This was the current doubt in the mind of the Heavenly Pillar Sage!

He didn’t intend to explicitly shield Yang Zhiyuan; after all, leaking Sect Dao Skills is a grave matter.

But neither could he Soul Search Yang Zhiyuan and the others just because of a sentence or two from Mo Wangchen.

"The Sage wants evidence, to be honest, I don’t have any to show."

Mo Wangchen shrugged his shoulders, then continued, "However, this matter was personally told to me by Fu Jingyan. He used to follow Yang Zhiyuan and knows some secrets. Whether he really leaked Sect Dao Skills or not, a Soul Search will reveal the truth."

"Sage, don’t listen to him. I’ve had grievances with Mo Wangchen; he’s using this as an opportunity for revenge!"

Yang Zhiyuan quickly stepped forward, succinctly explaining the matter of their first fight.

"Yang Zhiyuan was actually defeated by Mo Wangchen’s hands?"

"Is it no wonder he didn’t make a move, originally having no confidence to suppress Mo Wangchen!"

"Listening to what he said, did this grudge happen before Mo Wangchen joined the sect?"

"Could it be that Mo Wangchen is really taking this opportunity for revenge?"

After listening to Yang Zhiyuan’s words, the crowd surrounding Heavenly Pillar Peak all started discussing amongst themselves.

"Ridiculous!"

Amidst the discussions of everyone present, Mo Wangchen let out a cold laugh, "If you hadn’t fled in time that day, you would have been slain by me long ago. If we talk about revenge, it should be you seeking revenge against me. What reason would I have to take revenge on you?"

"Furthermore, this matter was personally told to me by Fu Jingyan, who followed by your side. Why would he falsely accuse you for no reason?"

"Humph! He’s doing this to retaliate for last night’s grudge, how can it be believed?" Yang Zhiyuan coldly snorted.

But as soon as the words left his mouth, his expression changed, and he internally cursed at his slip.

"Oh?"

Across from him, Mo Wangchen’s face broke into a brilliant smile, "Last night’s grudge? What grudge from last night?"

"You’ve let the cat out of the bag? Admitting that last night it was you who sent people to strike at him?"

With these words spoken, the surrounding people also realized, looking at Yang Zhiyuan with faces full of surprise.

"It was really him who sent people to deal with Fu Jingyan?"

Yang Zhiyuan’s recent admission was undoubtedly a confession without realizing it.

"Zhiyuan, is this really the case?!"

The Heavenly Pillar Sage’s face also darkened. To murder a fellow sect member was one of the ten heinous crimes, and if Yang Zhiyuan was really the culprit, then no matter what, as the Peak Master of Heavenly Pillar Peak, he had to purge his own ranks.

"Sage, I..."

Faced with the piercing gaze of the Heavenly Pillar Sage, Yang Zhiyuan felt a bad premonition inside.

"Hmph!"

The Heavenly Pillar Sage’s face filled with rage as he coldly snorted, and subsequently, an overwhelming Immortal Might burst from his body, spreading in all directions, causing everyone to change color.

Yang Zhiyuan’s face paled instantly, the oppressive might targeting him specifically, pressing down like a mountain on his body, leaving him utterly unable to move even an inch.

Hum!

But then they saw the Heavenly Pillar Sage step forward into the air, instantly appearing before Yang Zhiyuan. He pointed his finger and landed it between his eyebrows, forcefully starting a Soul Search!
