Chapter 4105 Hua Qiqi’s Proof

Ni Sakong forced a smile, “No, no, how would we dare to accuse Dan Wang? It’s just that some things are better made clear.”

Ye Bufan nodded, “That’s right, some things must be made clear. Then, who said they saw me outside the city?”

Ni Sakong said, “This… some things are inconvenient to disclose.”

“If you don’t want to say, then don’t. It doesn’t matter anyway.”

Ye Bufan said, “Since you two are here, I’ll make it clear.

I have been in Tiansheng City the entire time and haven’t left at all. If someone says they saw me outside, they are either speaking nonsense or someone is impersonating me.

Moreover, everyone can clearly see my strength; I am just an Immortal Venerable. How could I possibly kill a Saint Emperor-level expert? Someone must be framing me.”

Although he had successfully Undergoing Tribulation and entered the ranks of Immortal Emperor, his aura was still suppressed at Immortal Reverent Peak, appearing no different from before.

“This…” Kou Hongliao said, “Dan Wang said he hasn’t left Tiansheng City, but how can he prove it?”

“I can prove it!”

Hua Qiqi stepped forward, “Young Master Ye has been with me from yesterday until now; he hasn’t left at all.”

Ni Sakong frowned slightly, “Fairy Qi Qi, are you so sure? Did you two not separate at all during that time?”

Kou Hongliao followed up, “Yes, perhaps Fairy Qi Qi was asleep and wasn’t aware of some things.”

Hua Qiqi’s cheeks flushed, “Yesterday, Young Master Ye and I became Dao Companion. We were Dual Cultivation the entire time, never separated, and certainly never fell asleep.”

After she finished speaking, the expressions of the people around them became strange.

Hua Qiqi had just experienced her first intimate encounter, and her Yin Qi had dissipated. The signs on her body were too obvious; everyone could see that she wasn’t lying.

Kou Hongliao and Ni Sakong exchanged glances. Although their doubts hadn’t completely vanished, their suspicion of Ye Bufan had greatly diminished.

Especially Ni Sakong, who hadn’t found Liu Wuzhou’s Soul Imprint, believed that the culprit was likely someone else.

But if this matter had nothing to do with Ye Bufan, then who did it?

Just as the two were utterly perplexed, Ni Sakong’s expression suddenly changed dramatically. He soared into the air and sped towards the north.

At that moment, he sensed Liu Wuzhou’s Soul Imprint.

Although the others didn’t know what had happened, they knew it was definitely something major and followed closely behind. Kou Hongliao, Sword Emperor Qin Fei, Ye Bufan, and others also followed.

Outside the North Gate of Tiansheng City, the Xingyao Sect members had been continuously searching.

To find clues as quickly as possible, under the leadership of the Grand Elder and the Elder, they expanded the search area countless times.

However, with a larger area, the density of personnel naturally became much sparser. Everyone fought independently, agreeing to immediately send a signal if they found anything, and others would then come to support.

Elder Gongshu Zhan was responsible for the area near Tiansheng City. He was a Fourth Grade Saint Emperor, bold due to his skill, and there were no other powerful experts in the vicinity.

His Divine Sense spread like mercury, leaving no inch of space untouched, searching meticulously.

But just as he passed a spatial meteorite, the stone suddenly exploded, and a figure shot out from within, striking his back with a punch.

Seeing someone ambush him, Gongshu Zhan was not angry but pleased, indicating that he had found a clue.

He suddenly turned around, and the Fourth Grade Saint Emperor’s Domain erupted.

An earth-attributed shield blocked in front of him, defending against the opponent’s attack.

A Fire Phoenix on the left and an Ice Dragon on the right lunged forward simultaneously from both sides.

At the same time, green vines rose from the opponent’s feet, coiling around his legs like giant pythons.

As expected of a seasoned Fourth Grade Saint Emperor, his reaction was extremely fast. He fused four elements, maximizing his attack power.

He didn’t intend to kill the opponent in one blow but wanted to capture him alive to thoroughly understand the truth of the matter.

The assailant was dressed in black, completely covered from head to toe, making his appearance indistinguishable.

His attack power was astonishing; one punch shattered the shield in front of him, and then he used both fists and feet to defeat the Fire Phoenix and Ice Dragon.

However, at that very moment, the vines at his feet had already tightly bound his legs, then spiraled upward, also tying his arms.

He was trussed up like a zongzi, unable to move.

“Hahaha, junior, how dare you ambush this Elder? Let me see who you are and how you have such courage!”

Gongshu Zhan laughed triumphantly, reaching out to grab the opponent’s face and tearing off the veil.

His intention was to first see the person’s identity, then interrogate them thoroughly to understand the situation.

But he never expected that when the veil was removed and he saw the opponent’s face, his pupils immediately dilated, and he froze on the spot.

The reason was simple: the opponent’s appearance was identical to his own; it was clearly another Gongshu Zhan.

He had considered that the opponent might be Ye Bufan, or someone from Qin Jian Mountain Manor, but he never imagined it would be himself.

Assassinating himself was too absurd, which was why he lost his composure.

And at the moment he lost focus, another figure appeared behind him, similarly dressed, completely covered from head to toe, and punched him fiercely in the back.

It must be said that the opponent’s timing was perfect. Just as Gongshu Zhan lost focus, he directly penetrated his Immortal Emperor Domain and appeared behind him.

This punch carried destructive power, with dense black lightning arcs swirling around the fist.

“How dare you!”

Being ambushed twice in a row, Gongshu Zhan was furious to the extreme. He turned around, taking the punch squarely in the chest, while simultaneously striking down with an Immortal Essence palm.

In his mind, he was a Fourth Grade Saint Emperor after all, with strong protective Immortal Essence, so taking this punch head-on was nothing.

And indeed, it proved to be true. Although the opponent’s fist struck his chest, it had already exhausted its power after tearing through his protective Immortal Essence and caused no damage to his Physical Body.

He just didn’t notice that a yellow glow was left on his chest after the punch.

The enraged Gongshu Zhan paid no attention to this. He struck down with his palm, originally intending to severely injure the opponent and then capture him alive.

But what he never expected was that after his palm struck, the black shadow in front of him was directly shattered into dust, leaving no flesh and blood, but simply dissipating into the Void Realm.

“It’s a Clone!”

Gongshu Zhan was somewhat stunned. He turned his head and found that the Black-Clothed Man bound by the vines had also disappeared; he was clearly also a Clone.

“Damn it, who is this? How can they have such a realistic Clone!”

Gongshu Zhan was enraged, brimming with Killing Intent.

He had been ambushed twice in a row. Although he wasn't injured, the person escaped, leaving no clues.

Now he had no idea who made the move. The opponent was clearly toying with him, not even appearing in their true form, only sending out two Clones.

Just as he was about to sweep his Divine Sense out to find where the true form was hidden, suddenly seven or eight figures sped over from a distance.

Leading them was Ni Sakong, Sect Master of Lingxiao Sect. He was completely different from his usual smiling demeanor; his expression was cold, and his eyes revealed blatant Killing Intent.

Upon arriving, he glanced at Gongshu Zhan’s chest, and his gaze became even sharper. “Did you kill my Disciple?”
