Chapter 399 -0394: The Truth Comes to Light
“You did wrong in this matter, quickly apologize to Ye Luofeng and Chen Yu!”
The Ancestor of the Lingjian Sect spoke again, his words carrying an authoritative anger that brooked no rebuke.
All the surrounding powerhouses, as well as the other people within the city, were all stunned.
The Ancestor of the Lingjian Sect was actually asking a Guiyuan Realm Supreme Elder to admit his wrongs to two juniors.
That was a Guiyuan Realm!
In the eyes of others, the Guiyuan Realm represented the heavens of this country, always lofty and unoffendable!
And now, even the heavens had to bow their heads.
However, everyone had watched the exchange that had just taken place.
Elder Chai had violated the agreement and even tried to kill Chen Yu after losing!
Such behavior was truly shameless.
If he had succeeded, it would have been fine as the victor writes history, but Elder Chai had failed, and all he awaited was punishment along with a reputation shattered in defeat.
Elder Duanmu, Ye Luofeng’s master, immediately relaxed and smiled.
“Elder Chai, I never expected you to be such a person, you have completely disgraced the Lingjian Sect.”
Elder Duanmu utterly condemned him.
During the five years of Ye Luofeng’s disappearance, Elder Chai had never stopped slandering Elder Duanmu; now that their positions were reversed, Elder Duanmu certainly wasn’t going to let this opportunity pass.
Now, Elder Chai’s reputation had fallen drastically, and those who had sided with him would likely need to consider their own positions.
As soon as Elder Duanmu finished speaking, the others from the Lingjian Sect felt extremely embarrassed, and their looks toward Elder Chai immediately changed.
“Chen Yu, this old man was wrong, I lost my senses just now, everything was a misunderstanding.”
Elder Chai sensed the situation turning grim and quickly apologized to Chen Yu.
He knew the ancestor forced him to do this as a way to give an explanation to Chen Yu and Ye Luofeng.
After all, he had lost the debate, and all the blame would fall on him.
If there were no penalties, neither Chen Yu nor Ye Luofeng would be satisfied.
Both Chen Yu and Ye Luofeng, one possessing the Moon Spirit Ore Mother and the other the Heavenly Que Fragmented Sword, were likely to ascend to the Guiyuan Realm in the future.
Such personalities were naturally not to be offended by the Lingjian Sect.
At this moment, the best way to earn their goodwill was to use Elder Chai, the villain.
“Nephew Ye, Chen Yu, in the matter of the Moon Mine years ago, this old man confesses I was too greedy. I attempted to ambush you and instead suffered a heavy blow and even framed you afterward.”
Elder Chai knew his current purpose and gritted his teeth as he continued.
If he wasn’t sincere, neither Chen Yu nor Ye Luofeng would be satisfied.
If the two were unsatisfied, the Ancestor of the Lingjian Sect would be unsatisfied, and then Elder Chai would have no place in the sect in the future.
“What’s going on? Was Ye Luofeng’s betrayal of the Lingjian Sect actually framed by Elder Chai?”
“How could Elder Chai, a Supreme Elder, do such a thing to a disciple of the sect?”
Some uninformed spectators, upon hearing this, suddenly realized and were immensely indignant.
“Elder Chai, Miss Ye and I nearly died back then, and you think just saying a few words is enough?”
Chen Yu gave a sneer.
If everyone who did wrong could merely apologize casually and be forgiven, the world wouldn’t be filled with so many overt and covert fights and conflicts.
Moreover, in Chen Yu’s view, Elder Chai’s apology lacked any sincerity.
He could guarantee that if given a chance, Elder Chai would surely eliminate both Chen Yu and Ye Luofeng.
“Obviously, this matter will not just end like this!”
The Lingjian Sect Ancestor spoke once more.
Elder Chai’s behavior and mistakes, if committed by ordinary senior members, would have been sufficient for a death sentence; merely admitting his mistake was indeed too lenient.
But now, with the great war in Beiyuan, Elder Chai was one of the main combat forces, so his punishment couldn’t be too harsh.
“Elder Chai, now you are stripped of the privileges enjoyed by a Supreme Elder of the sect, and additionally, you need to compensate Chen Yu and Ye Luofeng.”
The punishments were twofold: first, stripping of privileges; second, paying compensation out of his own pocket.
For Chen Yu and Ye Luofeng, both at the pinnacle of the Innate Peak but possessing strength comparable to the Guiyuan Realm, ordinary compensation wouldn’t satisfy them; this would indeed be a significant expense.
“Alright, that’s only fair.”
Elder Chai nodded heavily, not saying anything further.
“It seems Elder Chai truly regrets his actions; I’m not a person with a small heart, so I forgive you this time. You don’t need to thank me too much.”
Chen Yu scoffed slightly, showing a magnanimous demeanor.
He knew it was impossible to handle Elder Chai completely this time.
Of course, if it were about punishing Elder Chai, Chen Yu would prefer to do it himself.
Now, with the war starting in Beiyuan and the Three Kingdoms at a disadvantage, internal strife indeed could not continue, otherwise, the Three Kingdoms would turn to ash under the heavy tramping of the Snow Mountain Tribe.
Even though they were not pursuing Elder Chai’s responsibility further for the time being, Chen Yu wouldn’t miss a chance to mock the other.
“At this time, Miss Luo Feng is also not pursuing it further!”
Ye Luofeng was holding back her laughter, preparing to imitate Chen Yu and add “you don’t need to thank me too much,” but in the end, she didn’t say it.
“Now that the matter has been resolved, let’s go inside.”
The Ancestor of the Lingjian Sect stated.
Subsequently, everyone returned to the hall they had been in before.
“Chen Yu, Ye Luofeng, you are now at the peak of the Innate, yet possess strength comparable to the Guiyuan Realm. Now that the Three Kingdoms are at a disadvantage, we need your strength.”
The Lingjian Sect Ancestor stated righteously.
“For my homeland, I refuse to shirk the responsibility.”
Chen Yu smiled.
This was his very purpose.
If Chu Country were destroyed, then everything would vanish, which is what Chen Yu did not want to see.
“Good, Chen Yu, are you aware that the Moon Spirit Ore Mother in your possession plays a critical role in the entire war situation?”
The Lingjian Sect Ancestor awaited Chen Yu’s response.
In the hall, a glint of light flashed in the eyes of many high-ranking members.
The primary function of the Moon Spirit Ore Mother was to nurture a massive Moon Spirit Ore.
Everyone present understood the use of Moon Spirit Ore, including the Lingjian Sect which had participated in mining the remaining Moon Spirit Ore at the Moon Mine.
If the Three Kingdoms could once again produce a Moon Spirit Ore, the overall strength of the Three Kingdoms would rise to a new level.
It was indeed a significant enhancement, one that could directly alter the course of the war.
In the hall, nearly everyone’s gaze was fixed intensely on Chen Yu.
Chen Yu smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth. He believed that if he were to refuse on the spot, he would likely be attacked by all the powerful figures present!
Previously, the Lingjian Sect Ancestor had personally come forward to have Elder Chai apologize, laying the groundwork for this moment.
If Chen Yu were to refuse at this moment, both morally and logically it would be indefensible. It would be considered a righteous act for the crowd to attack him.
However, Chen Yu had absolutely no reason to refuse.
“This is only natural. For the victory of the Three Kingdoms Alliance, I am naturally willing to provide the Moon Spirit Ore Mother.”
Chen Yu said with a calm smile.
Firstly, what harm could possibly come to him from offering the Moon Spirit Ore Mother to cultivate the Moon Spirit Ore Vein?
Absolutely none. In fact, there were many benefits.
After all, he was the owner of the Moon Spirit Ore Mother, holding a great deal of interest and considerable power in its distribution.
Many sect powers were even eager to foster good relations with Chen Yu.
Secondly, during the nurturing process, the Moon Spirit Ore Mother was also constantly transforming and growing, possibly forming the legendary “Moon Spirit Holy Stone.”
Everyone couldn’t help but smile, thinking that Chen Yu was very tactful.
Just as the high-ranking members were preparing to discuss other matters.
“Alliance Hierarch, there is an urgent report!”
A loud and firm voice came from outside the hall.
The establishment of the alliance among the Three Kingdoms necessitated a leader.
This leader was the “Alliance Hierarch.” Each country had one, and the three Alliance Hierarchs formed the highest authorities of the Three Kingdoms Alliance.
The Alliance Hierarch of Qi Country was this Lingjian Sect Ancestor.
“What’s the matter?”
The Lingjian Sect Ancestor was slightly displeased.
“The frontline is critical; the enemy tribe has suddenly launched a fierce attack!”
Upon hearing this, many high-ranking members in the hall trembled.
“The meeting is adjourned. We must deal with the war situation first.”
The Lingjian Sect Ancestor’s gaze sharpened, and he immediately spoke.
The enemy’s sudden exertion at this moment seemed rather strange.
Chen Yu and Ye Luofeng had returned for significant consultations, hence most top fighters were gathered here for discussions, making this the weakest moment for the frontlines.
In the view of the Lingjian Sect Ancestor, this was not the enemy being prescient but rather the presence of internal collusion in his own country.
This was quite normal, for example, Qi Country also had many infiltrators in enemy territory.
Immediately, the powerhouses in the hall began to leave.
Ye Luofeng followed her master to grasp the current battlefield situation, and Chen Yu also went along.
The Snow Mountain Tribe comprised nine tribes, each three tribes battling against one country.
Of course, the nine major tribes communicated closely, exchanging intelligence and supporting each other swiftly, thus maintaining the upper hand.
Of the three major tribes facing Qi Country, the strongest was named “Iron Refining Tribe.”
This tribe excelled in Artifact Refining, with its Artifact Refining Masters far surpassing those of Qi Country.
The fighters in this tribe were extremely well-equipped, making their overall strength very formidable!
Thus far, led by the Iron Refining Tribe, the three major tribes had displayed ten Half Spirit Artifacts and one Spiritual Artifact.
Of course, this was certainly not the full extent of the enemy’s capabilities.
That day.
The Qi Country camp and the three major tribes launched several minor wars, each intensely fought.
Two days later, the battle came to an end, with heavier losses on the side of the Qi Country camp.
During this period, Chen Yu, Ye Luofeng, and Elder Chai were discussing matters of compensation.
Naturally, Chen Yu and Ye Luofeng intended to heavily fleece Elder Chai.
The negotiation went on for a long time before concluding, with the two extracting a large number of Primordial Stones along with precious materials and Elixirs from Elder Chai.
On the third day.
A delegate from Chu Country arrived to request support.
Relative to Qi Country, Chu Country was weaker, but the enemies Chu Country faced were no less formidable than the Iron Refining Tribe and the other three major tribes.
“Ladies and gentlemen, it is time for me to return to Chu Country.”
Seizing this opportunity, Chen Yu announced his departure.
With this trip, his goal had been achieved, and his name was completely cleared.
Next, he needed to prepare for the war.
Chu Country being the weakest among the Three Kingdoms, was also the most vulnerable target for conquest.
Chen Yu would not allow his homeland to be desecrated, nor did he wish his former sect friends to be slaughtered by the enemy.
“Elder Duanmu, you will go to support Chu Country and, on behalf of the Lingjian Sect, discuss the Moon Spirit Ore Mother matter.”
The Lingjian Sect Ancestor made his decision.
Chen Yu had already agreed, willing to use the Moon Spirit Ore Mother to cultivate the Moon Spirit Ore Vein.
However, there were many issues big and small that needed to be discussed.
“Understood!”
Elder Duanmu nodded his head.
Now, with Elder Chai’s reputation suffering, the Ancestor assigning her such an important task made her very happy.
That day, Elder Duanmu selected several people, including Ye Luofeng, to accompany Chen Yu to Chu Country.
