Chapter 815: Chapter 815: Come and Take it if You Can

Elder Huang listed Lin Chen’s crimes and potential punishments in detail, showing a smug expression on his face.

Although Lin Chen’s demeanor wasn’t as fearful as he had anticipated, at least he felt that Lin Chen had taken the bait, as Lin Chen’s questions indicated there was still some fear in his heart.

Thinking of the treasures he had obtained from Lin Chen previously, Elder Huang began to anticipate the benefits he could receive this time, his heart slightly excited.

He knew the treasures on Lin Chen were extraordinary; he had chosen to stand on Ouyang Jin’s side last time because Ouyang Jin had promised to let him select several fifth-grade spiritual medicines.

As a Law Enforcement Elder of the Formation Sect, even though his status was lower than Shi Wanshan and Ouyang Jin, Elder Huang still held considerable decision-making power.

As long as the position of the Law Enforcement Elder was stable enough, he could even remove the Sect Master.

Therefore, Ouyang Jin naturally sought to win over the elders standing with him.

Last time, with those resources, Elder Huang had broken through his Cultivation and reached the Third Layer of the Nirvana Realm within six months.

Without those resources, it might have taken him a hundred years to achieve the breakthrough.

Therefore, knowing the extraordinary resources Lin Chen possessed, Elder Huang had been contemplating how to extract more treasures from Lin Chen.

Now, he finally saw an opportunity.

Xia Wanxin and others frowned upon hearing the Law Enforcement Elder declaring Lin Chen’s guilt; they couldn’t believe that Lin Chen, in his endeavor to help them, had committed such a serious offense.

They felt that it was unreasonable for the Formation Sect to unfairly judge Lin Chen while remaining ignorant of the faults of the Ten Great True Disciples, which was infuriating.

Moreover, Lin Chen had led the Formation Sect’s army to battle against the Red Soul Hall and Dark Demon Race armies in the Luoyun Mountain Range, repelling and killing countless enemies and accumulating many merits.

Now that he had just returned to the Formation Sect, instead of being commended, he was accused of crimes, which was disheartening.

"Heh, judging me without discerning right from wrong, Elder Huang, do you really represent the Formation Sect?"

"Do you think I can’t see the petty schemes in your heart, Huang Chengming? You simply want to extract more resources from me."

"While we disciples battle tooth and nail at the front lines against the Red Soul Hall and Dark Demon Race, reaping the results, you scheming wolves pilfer them."

"When the armies of the Red Soul Hall and the Dark Demon Race break through our Formation Sect’s defenses and slaughter our disciples, why didn’t I see you, the useless Huang Chengming, coming out to accuse them!"

Lin Chen looked at Elder Huang with a cold smirk, his actions infuriating him.

If this were merely Huang Chengming’s personal behavior, that would be one thing, but if this represents the sentiment of the Formation Sect, then Lin Chen feels the Formation Sect is beyond redemption.

"Boy, you..."

Huang Chengming was rendered speechless and unable to refute by Lin Chen’s words.

After all, Lin Chen had made significant contributions for the Formation Sect and even the entire Divine Flame Alliance, and he had even teamed up with Qin Batian to kill Xue Yuanqing, an elder ancestor of the Red Soul Hall, in the Endless Sky campaign.

Of course, Huang Chengming believed that Xue Yuanqing’s death was mostly Qin Batian’s doing, and Lin Chen merely played a supporting role.

Regardless, Xue Yuanqing was a powerhouse at the Peak of the Nirvana Realm, beyond Lin Chen’s ability to confront.

Nevertheless, whatever role Lin Chen played, his deeds had already spread throughout the Formation Sect and the Divine Flame Alliance.

Now that Lin Chen had established such great feats, whether to convict him or not was no longer a decision for just one Law Enforcement Elder to make.

"Heh, Junior Brother Lin Chen, your words are not without merit, but they dodge the crucial points. Your contributions in the Endless Sky campaign are indeed significant, but that does not justify your disregard for the rules of the Formation Sect."

Just as Huang Chengming was at a loss how to deal with Lin Chen, suddenly, a cold laugh resounded, followed by a young figure emerging from a white cloud in the sky and landing beside Huang Chengming.

The newcomer was Yu Chuan.

Lin Chen looked at Yu Chuan, giving a cold laugh. He had noticed Yu Chuan hiding above the distant white cloud but didn’t expect that he would reveal himself so quickly to confront him.

"Heh, as one of the Ten Great True Disciples, you resort to methods just as despicable as this old man, employing such vile and nauseating tactics."

"If you want the treasures on me, you are welcome to try and take them by force, if you have the strength. My treasures are yours to claim."

"But to use such dirty tricks and try to oppress me in the name of the Formation Sect, you have my contempt."

"If you don’t have the ability, you might as well leave."

"And the same goes for those hiding in the shadows; you can leave too. After all, with such cowardice, barely showing your faces, you dare covet the treasures on me!"

Lin Chen spoke disdainfully with a cold smirk on his lips.

As soon as Lin Chen’s words were spoken, the expressions of Xiang Hao, Huang Chengming, Yu Chuan, and the others changed, and the people hidden in the shadows also showed great alarm, realizing that Lin Chen had long noticed their presence.

These people were extremely surprised; their methods were supposed to be very covert, and they wondered how Lin Chen had discovered them or if he was just bluffing.

However, as Lin Chen’s words ended, Yu Chuan suddenly burst out with a powerful aura, revealing that he had reached the First Level of the Nirvana Realm.

During Lin Chen’s year away from the Formation Sect, Yu Chuan seemed to have seized an opportunity, advancing from the Half-Step Nirvana Realm to the true Nirvana Realm.

It was known that even when he was at the Half-Step Nirvana stage, Yu Chuan had the capacity to defeat those in the Nirvana Realm. Now, his cultivation was likely very advanced.

Yu Chuan waved a big hand, and four black daggers, imbued with powerful energy, instantly formed around his body, seemingly ready to engage Lin Chen in a fierce battle.

"Enough, what time do you think it is to still be acting so outrageously!"

However, just as Yu Chuan was about to make his move, a stern shout rang throughout the Formation Sect.

Following this stern shout, the faces of Xiang Hao, Yu Chuan, Huang Chengming, and others hidden in the dark changed drastically; they had never expected Qin Batian to step forward and warn everyone.
