Chapter 399: Chapter 396: Let Me Handle It?_1

Translator: 549690339

Frankly, seeing Qin Yundao’s confidence and certainty of winning, Yang Chen didn’t even want to disappoint him.

Qin Yundao was indeed confident, and although he felt something was off in Yang Chen’s tone, he dismissed it, thinking that Yang Chen was only trying to boost his courage. He sneered, “What’s there to be unsure about?”

“Fine, since you want to see it, I’ll let you see.” Yang Chen grinned, “But I’m more curious about how you will react if the truth is different from what you said?”

Qin Yundao, seeing Yang Chen acting like this despite being cornered, coldly snorted in his heart. He thought Yang Chen was just trying to scare him. However, Qin Yundao felt confident enough to say, “If the truth doesn’t match my words, you can do whatever you want to me. But first, you need to present evidence that refutes my claims.”

“Alright then.” Yang Chen shrugged.

The next moment, his True Qi suddenly burst into the open.

Boom.

The astonishing Martial Arts Cultivation swept the whole scene, shocking all the geniuses, new and old, from the Yuanshan Sect as they involuntarily retreated.

That was because Yang Chen’s Martial Arts Cultivation had reached the Ling Wu Realm Peak!

Furthermore, compared to ordinary Ling Wu Realm Peak practitioners, Yang Chen’s True Qi was far more concentrated due to his own strength far exceeding his peers and other factors like his Innate True Qi.

When Yang Chen displayed his Martial Arts Cultivation, the whole scene was astounded in an instant, with everyone around them dumbfounded. Nobody dared to question Yang Chen’s Martial Arts Cultivation or echo Qin Yundao’s words anymore.

Showing one’s Martial Arts Cultivation was always more convincing than anything else.

At this moment, Qin Yundao was dumbstruck.

He couldn’t believe that everything before him was true, so he couldn’t help but sneak a glance at Ruan Yunqing among the crowd. No, that wasn’t right. Ruan Yunqing had sworn to him that Yang Chen had indeed consumed the tea, which contained the Fragrant Sleep Gu Worm.

Then why was reality different?

Ruan Yunqing was also full of confusion and incomprehension on her face.

Why on earth had this happened when Yang Chen had clearly drank the tea she prepared?

No, that’s not right…

She realized she had never actually seen Yang Chen drink the tea with her own eyes.

And wasn’t everything she did too smooth? Why did Yang Chen specifically choose her as his guide and favor her so much?

Nothing made sense.

As for what these two were thinking, Yang Chen didn’t particularly care. Sometimes he wondered how naive Qin Yundao was to think that an insignificant Fragrant Sleep Gu Worm could bring him down. Had he ever considered that if Yang Chen’s Martial Arts Cultivation hadn’t improved at all, the first one to express doubt and suspicion wouldn’t be him, Qin Yundao?

Mù Báishēng’s Divine Soul Power was so much stronger than his; how could he not see Yang Chen’s true Martial Arts Cultivation?

If Yang Chen’s Martial Arts Cultivation hadn’t improved in such a long time, it would’ve been exposed simply by lying.

However, Qin Yundao was just that thoughtless.

Thinking of this, Yang Chen didn’t bother to say anything more and coldly said, “Qin Yundao, what did you just say? That you will accept whatever I decide?”

At this moment, Qin Yundao’s nerves were tense and he stepped back, shouting, “Yang Chen, you!”

“What about me? Qin Yundao, it seems you’ve forgotten something. I’m the Young Sect Master. And what were you just doing? You were slandering this Young Sect Master. Elder Hu, Elder Yun, according to our sect’s rules, what’s the punishment for slandering me?” Yang Chen asked.

“For those who don’t hold important positions in the Sect, death is the punishment.” Elder Hu immediately stated.

Qin Yundao was just an ordinary disciple, how could he hold any important position in the Sect?

Plainly speaking, even their status within the Yuanshan Sect was nothing special.

Hearing the word ‘death’, Qin Yundao finally became frightened. He became panicked and his eyes fell on Mù Báishēng as he shouted, “Uncle Mu, I was just confused for a moment, I just misspoke!”

Mù Báishēng shook his head and looked at Yang Chen, “Yang Chen, although Qin Yundao slandered you, it’s not a big deal. Let’s just drop it.”

Yang Chen sighed in resignation, knowing that Mù Báishēng had a special relationship with Qin Yundao.

However, Mù Báishēng only knew half of the story.

If Qin Yundao had only doubted him, Yang Chen wouldn’t have been angry.

But…

Yang Chen cupped his hands and said, “Sect Leader, I can let this matter go, but I want to ask him a question.”

“No problem, go ahead and ask.” Mù Báishēng replied.

Qin Yundao also widened his eyes, curious about what Yang Chen wanted to ask him.

At this moment, Yang Chen had his hands behind his back, his tone stiff. Suddenly, his Divine Soul directly entered Qin Yundao’s body and interfered with Qin Yundao’s soul. He then asked, “Qin Yundao, why did you want to harm me with the Fragrant Sleep Gu Worm?”

“How did you know?” Qin Yundao was stunned for a moment before he blurted out.

But as soon as the words left his mouth, he knew he had said something wrong.

No, that wasn’t right.

He hadn’t thought of saying that at all.

He looked at Yang Chen and suddenly felt that everything was orchestrated by him.

Mù Báishēng saw everything clearly from the side. He saw Yang Chen use his Divine Soul to interfere with Qin Yundao, but it wasn’t a big deal. Such methods were common; relying on the pure suppression of Martial Arts Cultivation, using a Divine Soul Secret Technique to interfere with the opponent, could make them momentarily confused and confess the truth.

In other words, what Qin Yundao just said was all true.

The Fragrant Sleep Gu Worm…

No wonder Yang Chen was so furious.

With this in mind, Mù Báishēng coldly looked at Qin Yundao and scolded, “Qin Yundao, you’ve really impressed me! I truly underestimated you. When I promised your father that I would take good care of you, I never thought you would harbor such malicious intentions!”

“Sect Leader, this is all Yang Chen’s slander! You must not believe him. Don’t believe him… I’ve truly been framed!” Qin Yundao was so anxious that tears were falling from his eyes.

“Lock him up in the Sect’s dungeon!” Mù Báishēng waved his hand, finally making a firm decision.

Indeed, Qin Yundao had a close relationship with one of Mù Báishēng’s old friends and was entrusted to him. However, with Qin Yundao acting like this now, how could he live up to that old friend’s trust? No matter what, this punishment couldn’t be compromised.

“It seems that it’s all due to my tolerance that Qin Yundao came to think he could do anything.” Mù Báishēng sighed. He had always turned a blind eye to Qin Yundao’s actions, never expecting that this would lead to such a big disaster and cultivate a character like this in Qin Yundao.

Now, Mù Báishēng had to make Qin Yundao realize that wrongdoing would be punished.
