Chapter 538: Chapter 0533: No Fairness

Law Enforcement Hall had summoned, and Chen Yu had to drop everything and go immediately.

Located at the top of Kunyun Sacred Land, Chen Yu flew there slowly.

Along the way, as he passed by Tongyun Tower, he saw a woman in white walking out of it.

“Congratulations, Miss Ye, on becoming a Copper Badge Holy Guard.”

Outside Tongyun Tower, a disheveled man with a beard smiled and said.

This man was none other than Fu Sanguang, who had defeated Yun Yingwu at the Talent Tea Party and gained fame across Yun Zhao Country.

Ye Luofeng’s beautiful brows furrowed, and she glanced at him, “Can you not follow me?”

“Hahaha, Miss Ye, your beauty captivates and overwhelms, Sanguang has adored you for a long time. Especially recently, as I’ve come to know you better, I find myself thinking of you day and night, unable to extricate myself.”

Fu Sanguang laughed heartily, then spoke very passionately.

Initially, Fu Sanguang was merely attracted by Ye Luofeng’s beauty. However, after spending time together, his repeated rejections only intensified his resolve to win her over.

Upon hearing these words, Ye Luofeng’s lips twitched a few times, feeling a chill as she coldly turned her head away, not wanting to see Fu Sanguang’s face.

Recently, Fu Sanguang had been persistently bothering her, and with his shameless demeanor, he was hard to get rid of.

“Chen Yu?”

Just as Ye Luofeng turned her head, she saw a figure in the distance.

She slowly flew towards him and asked, “Weren’t you on a punitive expedition? How have you returned so quickly?”

Previously, she had reached out to Chen Yu and knew he had undertaken a highly dangerous mission, which had greatly worried her.

Yet, unexpectedly, she saw Chen Yu not long after.

“Ah, Miss Ye!”

Fu Sanguang watched as Ye Luofeng flew away, his gaze darkening.

Despite his heartfelt confession, Ye Luofeng hadn’t even glanced at him before leaving.

“What a sight, Chen Yu! I heard that during your mission, you colluded with the natives, harmed Holy Guards, and framed Silver Emblem Holy Guards…”

Fu Sanguang watched Chen Yu coldly, ran over to him, and laughed loudly, speaking abusively without any restraint.

He had been accompanying Ye Luofeng recently, who ignored him completely and treated him coldly.

Now that Chen Yu appeared, Ye Luofeng had hurried over to him, her words full of concern, which greatly displeased Fu Sanguang.

Though Chen Yu had only been back for three days, Qian Guang and Shi Nan Yuan had taken it upon themselves to spread news of the Summoning Flame Realm, depicting Chen Yu’s actions as utterly villainous, so most of the Holy Guards in the Sacred Land knew something about it.

The reason Ye Luofeng was unaware was that she had been in seclusion recently, having just broken through to the Middle Stage of Guiyuan Realm and then gone to challenge the first level of the Tongyun Tower.

Fu Sanguang believed that once Ye Luofeng learned of Chen Yu’s true character, she would surely be disappointed and distance herself from him.

And in Ye Luofeng’s moment of disillusionment, wasn’t it the perfect opportunity for him to make his move?

“Ye Luofeng, with such character, you should stay away from him to avoid trouble.”

Fu Sanguang said with a smile.

“What?”

Ye Luofeng, upon hearing this, showed a slightly shocked expression.

Colluding with natives, harming Holy Guards, framing Silver Emblem Holy Guards–each of these was a grave sin.

“No worries, this is all just false accusations and frame-ups, the true situation will clear up soon.”

Chen Yu was very calm.

Ye Luofeng nodded. Since Chen Yu said so, that must be the truth.

“Hahaha, Miss Ye, don’t listen to his nonsense. He’s probably on his way to the Law Enforcement Hall, and once he goes up, I guess he won’t be coming down.”

Fu Sanguang’s laughter was piercing.

He could see that Ye Luofeng had feelings for Chen Yu, but for someone doomed, was there still a need for such feelings?

“Shut up.”

Chen Yu’s expression darkened as he coldly reprimanded.

He was speaking with Ye Luofeng, and Fu Sanguang repeatedly interjected, all the while being utterly obnoxious.

Chen Yu had initially given him face by ignoring him, but he couldn’t believe how shameless the man was.

“What did you say?”

Fu Sanguang’s expression changed suddenly, his gaze fiercely fixed on Chen Yu.

“Are you not only a chatterbox but also deaf?” Chen Yu asked.

“You… you scoundrel, dare to insult me, I demand a duel to the death!”

Fu Sanguang was incensed, cursing loudly, and challenging Chen Yu to a duel to the death.

“Don’t listen to him.”

Ye Luofeng looked at Fu Sanguang with disgust.

Once you start talking with him, it never ends–something she deeply understood.

Even Yun Yingwu had refused to argue with Fu Sanguang at the Talent Tea Party.

“Get out, I’m going to the Law Enforcement Hall now. If you interfere, you’re hindering the official duties of the Law Enforcement Hall, do you understand?”

Chen Yu said coldly.

“You… you!”

Fu Sanguang pointed at Chen Yu, his face furious and fierce, but eventually, he held his tongue.

The Law Enforcement Hall was all Law Enforcement Holy Guards, who were above even the Golden Emblem Holy Guards.

If Chen Yu deliberately dragged this out with him, once the Law Enforcement Hall blamed him, and Chen Yu claimed he was forcibly obstructing, it would be the end for Fu Sanguang.

Thus, he truly didn’t dare to continue disputing with Chen Yu, much less obstruct him.

Fu Sanguang fell silent, and Chen Yu walked past him, flying upwards.

Ye Luofeng followed as well.

“Damn it!” Fu Sanguang fumed, stomping his foot hard.

This was the first time in many years that Fu Sanguang had lost in a verbal dispute.

“Hmph, Chen Yu, you’ll be beneath my feet sooner or later!”

Fu Sanguang snorted and walked into the Tongyun Tower.

Now a Copper Badge Holy Guard, this time his entry into the Tongyun Tower was surely to challenge the second level.

The Sacred Land had a rule: becoming a Silver Emblem Holy Guard within three years would allow one to reside in a more advanced abode

“By now, more than two years had passed since they entered the Sacred Land, and once Fu Sanguang succeeded, he would directly live in a more advanced cave mansion, far surpassing everyone else.”

“As the saying goes, one step ahead, every step ahead!”

“He believed that he would become the first among that group of geniuses!”

“The overall tone of the Law Enforcement Hall was dark and solemn, filled with an aura of stern killing.”

“At this moment, there were six people inside the Law Enforcement Hall.”

“The three people below were Chen Yu, Qian Guang, and Shi Nan Yuan.”

“And the three people above were the Law Enforcement Holy Guards, with a beautiful-looking lady on the left.”

“The man in the middle was slender, his gaze cold and sinister. One felt a chill running through their body just by being glanced at by him.”

“And the person on the right was slightly older, his face somewhat imposing.”

“The three sitting above put immense, invisible pressure on Chen Yu and the others.”

“Starting now, every single word you say will be recorded and must not be falsified, or you will be punished severely!” the cold man called out.

“Retell the events.”

“The imposing man said.”

“This is what happened…”

Qian Guang took the initiative to speak, explaining the carefully concocted story, no different from what had been said earlier at Kunyun Palace.

“However, this time he recounted in more detail, clearly having done his homework over the past three days, and his demeanor and gestures gave a very realistic impression.”

“Chen Yu, what do you have to say?”

Asked the cold man.

“Qian Guang’s story doesn’t contain a single truth.”

Chen Yu spoke in a calm tone, recounting his version of the fabricated events.

“Bring forth all the evidence you think can prove the truth of the matter.” Said the beautiful lady with a smile, giving a sense of approachability.

“Sir, when we arrived at the Fire Lion Sect, Chen Yu had already fled. We only found the corpses of Brother Jiang and Brother Yang,”

Qian Guang sighed, having no evidence.

And he believed Chen Yu would have no evidence either.

“Sir, Chen Yu colluded with the locals to harm the Holy Guard. He might very well be a traitor.”

Added Shi Nan Yuan.

“A traitor!”

The expressions of the three Law Enforcement Holy Guards changed.

From the tests upon entering the Sacred Land, it was clear how detested traitors and spies were by Kunyun Sacred Land.

If one of these three was truly a traitor, this matter could even stir the Great Elder.

“Chen Yu, what you just described has clear discrepancies; with your abilities, it’s simply impossible for you to escape from the hands of Qian Guang and Shi Nan Yuan. Moreover, why would Jiang Boxiong foolishly hold off the enemy to aid your escape?”

The cold man immediately interrogated.

“It seems there really is no fairness here.”

Chen Yu thought inwardly.

If he guessed correctly, this cold man must have a good relationship with Qian Guang, targeting Chen Yu everywhere, that kind of psychological oppression easily makes people panic and misspeak.

But Chen Yu had decisive evidence, not fearing in the slightest.

“Sir, I haven’t presented my evidence yet.”

“You have evidence?”

The cold man was slightly startled and glanced at Qian Guang.

If neither party had evidence, then it was up to him to decide how to interpret the matter, and the consequences wouldn’t be significant.

“Whatever evidence you have, bring it out quickly, but remember, forging evidence and deceiving the Law Enforcement Holy Guard is punishable by death!”

Qian Guang spoke loudly, bolstering his courage while also trying to scare Chen Yu.

“Hehe.”

Chen Yu chuckled lightly and took a silver-gray ancient mirror from his storage bag.

“The Image Retention Mirror!”

Everyone present recognized the object.

Then, Chen Yu infused True Yuan into it.

Buzz!

A silver-gray cloud of light emanated from the mirror’s surface, displaying a moving scene within, clearly showing the process of Qian Guang and Shi Nan Yuan attempting to kill Qian Guang.

“This… can’t be!”

Qian Guang and Shi Nan Yuan were instantly dumbfounded.

“Impossible, you weren’t nearby at the time, how could you possibly record this scene with the Image Retention Mirror!”

Shi Nan Yuan yelled.

Chen Yu had not only presented evidence, but this evidence left him powerless to rebut.

Had they known Chen Yu had such evidence, they would have risked punishment to kill Chen Yu back at the Kunyun Palace.

“Sir, it’s a misunderstanding, I was invited by Jiang Boxiong to go to the Fire Lion Sect, only for Jiang Boxiong to suddenly attack us, and then we engaged him in combat and ultimately killed him!”

Qian Guang immediately pleaded.

He hadn’t expected to have to tell the true facts to secure a slim chance of survival.

Shi Nan Yuan also nodded repeatedly, claiming that Jiang Boxiong was also a traitor.

“The Law Enforcement Hall will not falsely accuse anyone; if what you say is true, then since Jiang Boxiong is dead, this matter still needs to be investigated to restore the true facts.”

The cold man took a deep breath, then said.

The beautiful lady glanced sideways, aware that the cold man was preparing to help Qian Guang.

If this matter was temporarily set aside, many changes could occur, like framing Chen Yu or putting a traitor label on the deceased Jiang Boxiong… the outcome could be entirely different.

“Is this even acceptable?” Chen Yu felt somewhat dejected inside.

It seemed that in Kunyun Sacred Land, there really was no fairness; as long as one had power, black could be turned white.

“Mr. He, with such conclusive evidence from Chen Yu, what more is there to investigate?”

But at this moment, the imposing man suddenly spoke up.
