Chapter 1457: Chapter 1456 How do you explain

Listening to the raucous crowd, Ki Yongchuan’s face flushed to the extreme.

Their purpose in coming here to assist the Medicine Sect was to support them wholeheartedly. In their eyes, Su Yang had killed someone from the Medicine Sect, and regardless of the specifics, a murder had occurred—thus they believed the Medicine Sect was in the right. That was why they spared no effort in siding with them.

But seeing the current outcome, they were all dumbfounded.

Not only was the Medicine Sect’s behavior shameful from the start, the few dead individuals weren’t even killed by Su Yang. Most critically, it was members of the Medicine Sect itself who had killed them. How could they possibly seek revenge on Su Yang now?

Now, facing the accusations from the crowd around them, they couldn’t even muster a single word in rebuttal. Just now, these Big Three Sects were fervently championing the Medicine Sect, only to have their faces slapped so quickly and so directly. Their reputation was utterly disgraced here.

The dean, watching everything unfold in the skies above, laughed. Earlier, Su Yang claimed he had enough evidence and confidence, but the dean wasn’t sure what he meant. Now, seeing this scene, he finally understood why Su Yang was so self-assured!

This time, the Medicine Sect had truly taken a devastating blow!

"It seems there’s no more room for argument, is there?" the dean said softly. "Who’s right and who’s wrong, justice will reveal itself in people’s hearts."

No one spoke, not even the members of the Medicine Sect—they had utterly nothing left to say for themselves.

Su Yang sneered and shot Ki Yongchuan a look before saying loudly, "Young Master Ki, I told all of you earlier—before the truth is confirmed, try not to judge right and wrong so hastily. You all placed your trust in Second Elder, didn’t you? Now, do you still trust him?"

The faces of the people from the three sects grew even more ashen. Ki Yongchuan glared angrily at Su Yang but couldn’t utter a single word. He wanted to erupt in fury, yet didn’t even know how to begin his protests. The slap in the face dealt to him this time was too severe.

The many observers in the skies couldn’t suppress their mocking expressions. In truth, numerous sects harbored resentment toward the Medicine Sect, but they refrained from exposing this due to the Medicine Sect’s control over precious elixir resources. Now, seeing the Medicine Sect suffer such a major defeat, they were secretly delighted.

Su Yang did not press Ki Yongchuan and others further; for now, he didn’t want to completely sour relations with the three sects, as that wouldn’t benefit him in any way.

"Second Elder, what do you have to say for yourself about this matter now?" Su Yang asked.

All eyes shifted to Second Elder, whose expression had grown even darker. He took a deep breath, abruptly turned, and slapped Wang Ding across the face, sending him flying.

Wang Ding scrambled to his feet, fell to his knees, and repeatedly kowtowed while pleading, "Master, Master, I know I was wrong! Please spare me, have mercy—I’ll never do it again! I’ll never do it again..."

"Do you think there’ll be a next time?" Second Elder roared furiously, slapping him harshly with another palm strike.

"Second Elder, please don’t act impulsively!" Su Yang smiled. "Wang Ding isn’t even a Terrestrial Immortal yet—if you kill him here, the Law Enforcers definitely wouldn’t allow it!"

Second Elder was seething and spat angrily, "Our Medicine Sect matters are none of your business!"

"Of course!" Su Yang smiled faintly, his expression instantly turning cold before demanding icily, "But how do you explain your Medicine Sect’s false accusations against me—and the deaths of so many of my brothers that your sect caused?"

Second Elder turned to glare at Su Yang, his expression icy. "Who do you think you are that I need to explain anything to you?"

"So, Second Elder plans to shirk responsibility, is that it?" Su Yang said coldly. "This matter has now been proven not to have been my doing, and yet it was your Medicine Sect members who framed me. You killed so many of my brothers, and now, not even a single apology before walking away? Did you forget how every time you accused me of murdering someone from your sect, you kept swearing you’d kill me? Now that our roles are reversed, you suddenly plan to act shamelessly?"

Second Elder erupted in fury, shouting, "You Su brat—leave immediately with your men before I make up my mind to kill you, or don’t blame me for showing no mercy!"

"Oh? Is Second Elder threatening me now?" Su Yang sneered. "So now that I’ve proven I didn’t kill anyone from your Medicine Sect, you still plan to kill me? What’s that supposed to mean?"

"I don’t like the look of you—is that reason enough?" Second Elder bellowed angrily. He had been humiliated by Su Yang to the point of unbearable rage. Though so many others were watching him, his dignity had already been shattered, leaving him indifferent to public opinion. He now intended to dominate Su Yang with brute force.

"Hahaha..." Su Yang threw his head back and laughed. "You don’t like the look of me? As if I even care for the sight of you! Tsk... I must say, your Medicine Sect’s domineering attitude has left quite an impression on me today. Burning bridges, shameless conduct, bullying the weak—Medicine Sect truly is capable of anything. Clearly, resorting to underhanded tricks like this comes as second nature to you!"

"What did you just say?!" Second Elder roared.

"Isn’t it true?" Su Yang sneered. "Back when Su Zhan handed over the formulas for those two types of elixirs to the Medicine Sect, it paved the way for your sect’s success. And how did you repay Su Zhan’s descendants? Isn’t this the very definition of burning bridges?"

"Your disciples couldn’t keep their hands off Jeang Zier simply because she’s beautiful, and when I fought back and injured them, one of your disciples turned around and killed those men to frame me. Isn’t that shameless conduct?"

"Now, with the truth revealed and proven unrelated to me, you refuse to offer even the slightest explanation, instead threatening me to drop this entirely. Relying on the power of the Medicine Sect to intimidate me—isn’t that bullying the weak?"

Su Yang fired off these three accusations in quick succession, leaving Second Elder speechless for a long moment before he finally roared, "I haven’t fully investigated this matter yet! Once I get to the bottom of it, I will naturally give you a proper explanation. But regarding Su Zhan, you’re completely slandering us. Su Zhan showed great favor to our Medicine Sect, and we’ve kept his kindness in our hearts. We’ve spared no effort in aiding the Su Family of Yanbei and Su Zhan’s descendants—how could there be any talk of burning bridges?"

"Is that so?" Su Yang sneered, then suddenly shouted, "Then how do you explain the matter of Zi Nu?"

Second Elder’s heart sank—how could Su Yang know about Zi Nu?

"What Zi Nu..." Second Elder tried to feign ignorance.

At that moment, the dean suddenly waved his hand in the air, and a nearby hill was shattered, revealing several figures within.

Among them were a few members of the Medicine Sect and two girls—one was Zi Nu, and the other was Hu Xiexie.

Both Zi Nu and Hu Xiexie were clearly being restrained by the Medicine Sect.

These individuals were hidden by the Medicine Sect and were meant to force Su Yang to divulge details about The Art of Thousand Swords once captured.
