Chapter 419: How Shameless!

“—I won’t hold you accountable for what happened in the past!”

Hearing Yu Huang’s words, Zhou Buwen’s eyes widened. “Young Master Yin, are you serious?” The other cultivators were also somewhat shocked.

Yu Huang actually planned to let Zhou Buwen off?

Since Yu Huang had made such a promise in front of the entire cultivation world, it was naturally impossible for her to go back on her word. Yu Huang nodded seriously. “A righteous person never goes back on her word!”

Facing the tempting offer given by Yu Huang, Zhou Buwen was tempted. Zhou Buwen was a fugitive. To him, who cared if others were dead or alive?!

After confirming that Yu Huang wasn’t joking, Zhou Buwen immediately admitted frankly, “It was Yin Mingchong! 21 years ago, Yin Mingchong once found me and wanted to make a deal with me!”

Zhou Buwen’s words caused an uproar.

The Yin Clan disciples all revealed doubtful gazes.

Their Patriarch was the most benevolent and compassionate person. How could he do such a thing?!

Yin Fu was the first to stand up. She pointed at Zhou Buwen and scolded, “Thief, don’t slander him! My father would never do such a thing!”

The cultivators were also discussing—

“I’ve long suspected that Yin Mingchong played a hand in it. It really was him.”

“21 years ago, the Yin Clan was so glorious. How could Zhou Buwen have successfully barged into the Yin Clan and even stolen the Yin Clan’s young master all by himself?! Someone must have cooperated with him from the inside. I just didn’t expect that person to actually be Yin Mingchong.”

“One can’t judge a person by their appearance.”

When Yin Fu heard the discussions of the cultivators, she stomped her feet anxiously. “Everyone, don’t listen to this little thief’s one-sided words! He’s slandering my father!”

At this moment, Yu Huang also said calmly, “Seniors, please calm down. It’s indeed inappropriate to convict my uncle just by listening to Zhou Buwen’s one-sided story. Besides, my uncle has always been upright and kind. There might be a misunderstanding.”

Seeing that the victim was still so calm and rational, the cultivators stopped clamoring.

Yin Fu cast a grateful look at Yu Huang. She really thought that Yu Huang was upholding justice for her father. Yin Rong looked at Yu Huang and felt admiration.

This girl was really scheming.

Yin Rong didn’t believe that Yu Huang didn’t know everything Yin Mingchong had done in secret. If she really didn’t know, she wouldn’t have deliberately brought all the disciples to the back mountain to pluck melons yesterday.

Besides, what kind of delicacies hadn’t the old dean eaten before? Would he fancy those wild melons at the back of the mountain?

It was a ruse to catch Yin Mingchong!

Yu Huang was clearly aware that Yin Mingchong was the mastermind, yet when everyone was suspecting and slandering Yin Mingchong, she stood out to uphold justice for Yin Mingchong.

This action brought her praise.

Everyone would praise her for being benevolent, kind, and fair.

Yin Rong saw through all of this, but Yin Fu and the other young disciples of the Yin Clan didn’t.

When Zhou Buwen heard Yu Huang’s words, he naively thought that Yu Huang didn’t believe him.

Zhou Buwen hurriedly shouted, “It’s true, Young Master Yin. I’m not lying to you!” In order to survive, he was willing to tell her everything he knew.

Yu Huang asked Zhou Buwen with a slightly angry expression, “Zhou Buwen, do you know what you’re saying?! Yin Mingchong is the acting Patriarch of the Yin Clan, my father’s cousin, and my uncle! Although he and my father were cousins, they had a deep relationship and were like brothers!”

“Who in the cultivation world doesn’t know that my uncle is kind and benevolent? How could he possibly do something to harm his elder brother’s daughter?! Don’t spout nonsense. You’re deliberately sowing discord between us!” After Yu Huang finished speaking, she acted angry.

Sheng Xiao lowered his eyes and watched Yu Huang’s performance. If it wasn’t for the fact that the occasion wasn’t right, he would have applauded her.

As expected of an actress who had won the Best Actress Award. No one could compare to her in terms of acting.

When the surrounding cultivators heard Yu Huang defend Yin Mingchong, they looked at her with pity and sympathy.

The entire cultivation world knew that her uncle was a pretentious hypocrite. Only she didn’t know.

This child was still too young and didn’t know how evil some people could be.

Lin Jiansheng placed his hands in front of his chest and lowered his head. He couldn’t help but smirk. Why did he feel so happy as he watched her acting?

When Zhou Buwen saw that Yu Huang was still foolishly defending Yin Mingchong, he was both angry and anxious, and he immediately poured out all the secrets of the past in detail.

“I wonder if everyone has heard of the famous Flower-picking Bandit, Other Pupil Lord?”

Upon hearing the name ‘Other Pupil Lord’, everyone silently glanced at Xuanyuan Shen.

Xuanyuan Shen’s expression instantly darkened.

Yu Huang had never heard of this name, but she noticed the change in the atmosphere among the guests and gave Sheng Xiao a curious look.

Sheng Xiao turned around slightly and whispered into Yu Huang’s ear, “A few decades ago, a famous rapist appeared in the Divine Realm Continent. His nickname was the Other Pupil Lord. The most famous thing this person did was sleep with Xuanyuan Shen’s wife, Xuanyuan Jing’s mother.”

Yu Huang said, “Oh!”

Seeing that everyone was whispering and discussing the person known as Other Pupil Lord, Zhou Buwen felt somewhat smug.

Zhou Buwen pointed at his eyes. His left eye was black and his right eye was dark green. He looked eerie and mysterious.

Everyone stared into Zhou Buwen’s eyes and thought of the person called ‘Other Pupil Lord’. Their expressions instantly became interesting.

“That’s right, I’m Other Pupil Lord!”

Xuanyuan Shen suddenly stood up from the crowd, drew his sword, and pointed it at the Other Pupil Lord while cursing angrily, “Zhou Buwen, I’m going to kill you!”

Zhou Buwen’s cultivation was inferior to Xuanyuan Shen’s, so he could only beg for mercy.

Zhou Buwen immediately grabbed the sleeve of Lin Jiansheng’s robe and hid behind him. He stuck his head out and said to Xuanyuan Shen, “You don’t know how to be gentle with women. Your wife and I had great chemistry. If your wife hadn’t opened the door for me, could I have broken in?”

“If you want to kill someone, you should kill your wife first!”

Xuanyuan Shen was speechless.

“I’m really going to kill you today!”

Xuanyuan Shen suddenly jumped out of the crowd and held his sword to take revenge for being cuckolded.

At this moment, Lin Jiansheng suddenly turned around and raised the Psychic Scepter in his hand.

The scepter was raised high, and boundless psychic energy surged out at the same time, building an indestructible force in front of Lin Jiansheng.

Xuanyuan Shen’s sword stabbed into the spiritual power wall and was rebounded.

Xuanyuan Shen held his sword and questioned Lin Jiansheng angrily, “Saint Ling Xiao! Are you going to interfere in this matter?”

Lin Jiansheng snorted and said calmly, “Today is my disciple’s homecoming banquet. Zhou Buwen is my gift to my disciple.”

“If you want to kill him, you have to ask my disciple if she agrees. If my disciple wants to kill him, then you can’t use a knife on him. If my disciple wants to let him go, then you can’t kill him in the Yin Clan. After all, the homecoming banquet is a joyous occasion, and it’s not suitable for bloodshed.”

After saying that, Lin Jiansheng glared at Xuanyuan Shen coldly and sneered. “Patriarch Xuanyuan, times have changed. Yu Huang is no longer the helpless young lady who allowed you to humiliate her. She is now the Yin Clan’s young master, the daughter of Prime Master Yin Mingjue, the disciple of Saint Ling Xiao, and the adopted daughter of the Grand State Master! If you want to touch her things, you have to get her permission first.”

“Patriarch Xuanyuan should understand this rule.”

Xuanyuan Shen’s expression instantly darkened.

However, Lin Jiansheng’s words also reminded him. Xuanyuan Shen realized that this was the Yin Clan’s territory. Zhou Buwen was Yu Huang’s prisoner and it wasn’t his place to interfere.

Xuanyuan Shen glared fiercely at Zhou Buwen and threatened, “Zhou Buwen, I’ll be the first to kill you after we leave the Eight Towers Mountain!”

Zhou Buwen stiffened his neck. “Then let’s see who’s more capable!”

This small interlude broke the solemn atmosphere from before and made things progress in a strange direction.

Lin Jiansheng removed the psychic wall and warned Zhou Buwen, “Behave yourself!”

Zhou Buwen didn’t dare to act rashly. He continued, “Because I slept with the wife of a big shot, the other party issued a warrant for me at the Beast Tamer Alliance Meeting.” At this point, Zhou Buwen even glanced at Xuanyuan Shen covertly.

Xuanyuan Shen’s expression darkened.

Yu Huang held back her laughter and asked, “What happened after that?”

“I was hunted by them until I had no way to escape, and I hid like a street rat. At this time, Yin Mingchong found me and made a deal with me.”

Zhou Buwen looked straight at Yu Huang and told her, “Yin Mingchong found me and asked me to take the opportunity to infiltrate the Yin Clan and steal the Yin Clan’s Little Young Master. In order to create the illusion of an intrusion, he even asked me to steal some precious collections on the way. If I could successfully complete the mission, he would forge a fake Beast Tamer identity card for me and let me live a free life under another identity.”

“Actually, I was unwilling at that time. After all, the Yin Clan’s Prime Master was a hero that I admired. However, I was chased until I had no way out, and an identity card forged by a member of the Beast Tamer Alliance was the life-saving talisman that I urgently needed!”

Caro Xiangfu instantly snorted coldly when he heard this. “Yin Mingchong is really audacious to actually dare to forge a fake Beast Tamer ID card! This is a serious crime!”

Yu Huang didn’t expect such a secret to exist.

The discovery of Yin Mingchong’s fake Beast Tamer identity card was truly a pleasant surprise.

At this moment, the First Elder asked in a low voice, “How can you prove that what you said is true?”

Zhou Buwen pointed at the valley behind the Moon Pointing Mountain and said loudly, “There’s an underground river in the lake at the back of the Yin Clan’s mountain. Only the Yin Clan’s elders and Patriarch know about this. However, Yin Mingchong told me this secret and asked me to sneak into the Yin Clan and steal the Young Master on the day that the Yin Clan invited Prime Master Yin Mingjue’s Spirit Tablet into the ancestral hall!”

“However, when I wanted to come to the Yin Clan to steal some treasures again, I discovered that the secret passage was sealed.”

Everyone was speechless.

Wasn’t it enough that he stole once? How dare he try to steal a second time?!

How shameless!

At this moment, Yu Huang stood up thoughtfully. She turned around and bowed to the elders before looking around at all the core disciples.

At the same time, her expression became serious.

Seeing this, everyone felt uneasy.
