Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity

Chapter 175 Guilt

Only at this moment did everyone seem to wake from a dream, looking at Huang Suyu's corpse and Yu Changsheng sitting on the corpse, covered in blood and looking like a demon god, their pupils contracted and they gasped in shock.

"Huang Suyu...is dead?"

"Even with the vice sect leader protecting him, Yu Changsheng still intervened and succeeded?!"

The disciples were buzzing with discussion, while the elders looked at each other, all frozen in place for a moment.

"What just happened? It didn't seem like a bluff; that divine sense was indeed powerful enough to overcome the Vice Sect Leader's pressure. That's why they were caught off guard!"

Elder Li stood there, staring at Huang Suyu's corpse and then at Yu Changsheng, who was panting heavily. His gaze was complicated, and his heart was filled with mixed emotions.

"Cultivation refined, physical body established, divine sense exceptionally powerful... Is this a natural talent... or a technique from Beast Taming Peak!"

Yun Hejing murmured to herself, the shocks Yu Changsheng had given her today were simply too many.

It is conceivable that what happened today has left an indelible impression on all the disciples and elders present.

No one would underestimate Yu Changsheng anymore, and Miao Wenlun was also stunned, staring blankly at Yu Changsheng. After a moment, he exhaled and showed a hint of relief.

As for Gu Zhen and the other geniuses, all that remained was a wry smile and admiration for Yu Changsheng.

Everyone had different thoughts, but Lu Ruikai's face was full of anger. Upon closer inspection, although there was anger in his eyes, there was even more shock.

He never imagined that even with his own efforts, Yu Changsheng would seize the opportunity to kill Huang Suyu; the opponent's trump card had never been revealed at all.

Yu Changsheng slumped to the ground, looking up at Lu Ruikai's approaching figure, his face becoming calm, without making any other movements.

At this moment, his consciousness, soul, blood and energy, and cultivation were all extremely weak, leaving him utterly defenseless and powerless.

That's not important. What's important is that Huang Suyu has already been killed by him, and that's enough. He knew that if he really killed a genius like Huang Suyu, someone in the sect would definitely stop him.

Therefore, he had not fully used his trump card in the battle with Huang Suyu, with the aim of catching Huang Suyu off guard at this moment.

He really didn't expect that he would alarm Lu Ruikai to take action, but the result was good. Even at the cost of his own soul backlash, he still managed to delay Lu Ruikai.

If Lu Ruikai had come in his true form, Yu Changsheng would never have succeeded. However, since it was only a projection of his divine sense, coupled with Lu Ruikai's underestimation of him, Yu Changsheng was able to succeed.

It's not surprising that Lu Ruikai underestimated his opponent. No one expected that Yu Changsheng had such a trump card up his sleeve—a divine sense comparable to a Golden Core cultivator. Who would believe it?

However, the overall situation was now settled. Lu Ruikai was angry, but for the time being, he also had a headache dealing with Yu Changsheng.

Seeing Lu Ruikai's aggressive demeanor, Yun Hejing was the first to react. She quickly flew to Lu Ruikai, bowed deeply, and respectfully said:

"Vice Sect Leader, please calm down. Yu Changsheng must have had no choice but to do this. Please show leniency."

Lu Ruikai snorted coldly, his face grim. He glanced past Yun Hejing at Yu Changsheng, took a deep breath, and slowly said, "Give me a reason."

Yu Changsheng suppressed his drowsy state, his words revealing exhaustion, but his face showed a respectful expression.

"I beg the Vice Sect Leader to understand that I was indeed wrong to have accidentally killed Huang Suyu, but there were reasons for it all."

"A rash mistake?" Lu Ruikai's eyes narrowed, and he shook his head with a cold smile, waiting for Yu Changsheng to continue.

"I never really intended to kill Huang Suyu. It was just that he repeatedly tried to harm me and hired people to kill me. If I hadn't escaped by sheer luck, I probably wouldn't be Yu Changsheng now."

"I was walking on thin ice during this inner sect trial. I never expected that Huang Suyu would be so determined to kill me. He not only arranged for two disciples to block my entrance, but also sent Lei Jingtong, a senior brother from Ba Dao Peak, to hunt me down."

I originally didn't intend to hold a grudge against the past, but unfortunately, Huang Suyu was unwilling and insisted on killing me. He even bribed the trial disciples to tamper with the teleportation jade tube in my hand, making it unable to teleport. I had no choice but to do this to protect myself. I hope the sect leader will be magnanimous. I am willing to accept the punishment.

Yu Changsheng spoke at length, each sentence delivered with great emotion, his expression shifting between resentment, sorrow, and helplessness, which resonated with many onlookers.

Lei Jingtong, who had been observing from the sidelines, stepped forward upon hearing his name called. He bowed to the crowd and said sincerely:

"I can attest that what Yu Changsheng said is true. Huang Suyu did indeed come to me wanting me to help him get rid of Yu Changsheng. I owed him a favor years ago, so I agreed. However, I only had the idea of ​​fighting Yu Changsheng and had no intention of killing him. I believe Junior Brother Yu can also sense this."

Lei Jingtong spoke slowly and deliberately, his tone full of sincerity, without any concealment.

Upon hearing Lei Jingtong's admission, Lu Ruikai's expression softened somewhat. He nodded to him, showing no intention of punishing him, as Lei Jingtong's actions were not problematic.

Seeing that Lu Ruikai did not blame him, Lei Jingtong secretly breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly felt fortunate. Then he looked at Yu Changsheng with complicated eyes.

"Let me see your jade slip."

Lu Ruikai temporarily withdrew his imposing aura, his expression softened, and he spoke calmly.

Yu Changsheng nodded, maintaining a respectful attitude throughout, and took out his teleportation jade tube, handing it to Lu Ruikai.

With just one glance, Lu Ruikai could naturally see the problem. After crushing the teleportation jade tube, his face suddenly turned gloomy.

"Which inner disciple is responsible for assisting with this trial?"

Wang Luyi, standing in the crowd, changed his expression drastically. In a panic, he rushed to Lu Ruikai's side, knelt down, and spoke in terror.

"Disciple Wang Luyi deserves to die. He should not have accepted others' pleas for mercy and, out of a soft heart, secretly modified Junior Brother Yu's teleportation permissions. I beg the Vice Sect Leader to punish him."

Wang Luyi knelt on the ground, his eyes filled with nothing but fear and regret. There was not a trace of pride left in him as an inner disciple. He truly hadn't expected things to turn out this way.

The most serious person in this matter is not Lei Jingtong and the others, but himself, the disciple in charge of the trial. He actually colluded with Huang Suyu to modify Yu Changsheng's trial jade tube teleportation permissions. Wasn't he trying to kill him?

If Yu Changsheng was really killed by Huang Suyu, that would be fine. Although they would be suspected, that would be the end of it. As long as no one said anything, no one could say anything.

There are too many reasons to prove that Yu Changsheng did not die because the jade slip could not be used, and in fact, perhaps not many people would care about the issue of a dead person.

However, if the person who died was Huang Suyu, and it attracted the attention of the deputy sect leader, everything would be different. His actions would become an outlet for this matter.
