Eternal Saber

Chapter 554 - 160: I’m Not Dead Yet

In the back of the crowd, a towering man stood with his hands behind his back.

This man was dressed in a long black robe, adorned with complex dark golden patterns, and a wide belt encrusted with jewels around his waist.

His brown hair hung over exceedingly broad shoulders, his skin was smooth and radiant, with a prominent nose and deep-set eyes, making his features extremely pronounced, and his eyes, like two sapphires, were profound and captivating, yet his gaze was cold.

This person’s appearance was not like one from Nanxia.

His attire further projected nobility and elegance.

Anyone who saw this man would leave with an extremely deep impression.

But among the thousands present, it seemed no one noticed him.

Even the lean old man a few yards away seemed not to see the man in the black robe.

No one knew when he arrived.

It was as if he had always been there.

"Martial Arts Assembly, nothing but this."

The man in the black robe watched the crowd argue, a hint of sarcasm flashing across his face, he turned to the northeast, feeling inclined to leave, and murmured, "Perhaps over in the Capital City, things will be more interesting."

-----------------

"Everyone!"

Yun Yifeng pressed his hands down in the air, proclaiming loudly, "Valley Master Sun has already explained very clearly. If anyone still has doubts, feel free to stand up now and confront Valley Master Sun."

No one in the crowd made a sound.

To be fair, in the Martial World, only ’Medical Master’ Mo Ming could be named alongside the Medicine King.

Amongst others in Qihuang Skill, who has the qualification to confront Valley Master Sun.

Some people looked provocatively at Shen Zhiyuan, Su Li, and the others.

Shen Zhiyuan and his group remained silent.

They did not understand medicine nor know about herbs and stones; to confront Valley Master Sun now would merely court humiliation.

"Since no one has any doubts, let this matter be over then."

Yun Yifeng paused momentarily, his tone changed, and he slowly said, "In the future, if anyone makes a big deal out of this matter, they harbor ill intentions and are enemies of the Martial Arts Alliance and Nanxia Jianghu!"

This statement was filled with murderous spirit, making many people tremble at the words.

"Of course."

"In the future, whoever dares to slander the Drunken Eight Immortals or frame the Drunken Immortal Tower, should be put to death by everyone!"

Seeing Isle Master Yan Yang and Yu Qingfeng, two Grandmasters, say so, the other Sect Leaders quickly expressed their support.

Some Sect Leaders and leaders of second and third-tier sects hurriedly voiced their agreement.

Of course, many present heard the peril within these words.

Jiang Feng was previously only half-convinced about this matter.

But Yun Yifeng’s previous statement was clearly taking this opportunity to silence all voices.

Jiang Feng looked at the several Grandmasters beside him.

Apart from him and Shen Zijing, Sect Leader Fan Qing from Tea Dao Sect also did not speak.

Fan Qing looked at Jiang Feng.

The two glanced at each other, understanding each other’s thoughts instantly.

"Since there are no issues with the Drunken Eight Immortals, then Chen Tang certainly has issues."

He Shiyao’s gaze shifted, looking at Shen Zhiyuan, Su Li, Jade Flute Fairy, and others, he proclaimed, "Everyone, you swore earlier that there were issues with the Drunken Eight Immortals and trusted Chen Tang. Should you not stand up now and give everyone an explanation!"

Shen Zhiyuan frowned and said, "What kind of explanation do you want?"

"Simple."

He Shiyao said indifferently, "As long as everyone publicly states that there are no issues with the Drunken Eight Immortals and that Chen Tang deserves his fate, then this matter can be over."

In fact, he did not know why his grandpa suddenly transmitted his voice to him, instructing him to force a statement from several people.

But he still followed the instruction.

"Indeed, an explanation is needed!"

Many quickly echoed his sentiment.

Shen Zhiyuan and others remained silently unspeaking.

Someone sneered and said, "Brother Shen, Miss Su, it’s just uttering two sentences to show your stance, wouldn’t ask you to do anything, is it so difficult?"

"Young Master He."

Jian Qiuchi, seeing Jade Flute Fairy unmoved, stepped forward actively, smiled and said, "Of course, our Ba Mountain Sword Sect believes there are no issues with the Drunken Eight Immortals."

"Sect Leader Jian, I did not ask you."

He Shiyao glanced at Jian Qiuchi indifferently, "Jade Flute Fairy, if you refuse to say, then let me keep the Night Rain Sword for now."

"Brother He, you just..."

Guo Heng couldn’t help but speak up, but before he finished, He Shiyao interrupted immediately.

"I thought just now that Jade Flute Fairy shares the same heart with us all, seeing her as a fellow disciple and sister, that’s why I returned the Night Rain Sword actively."

He Shiyao said, "But earlier, she was unwilling to play a piece, showing no regard for the Jianghu friends present."

"Haha, that aside, now asking her to show her stance, saying merely that Chen Tang deserves his fate, yet she refuses to say it, seems she is going to be an enemy to our Martial Arts Alliance in the future!"

Guo Heng quickly said, "No, it won’t come to that, Brother He, you worry too much, it’s just that she..."

Guo Heng couldn’t find a suitable reason temporarily.

"I just don’t want to say, so what?"

Ye Yushi glared at He Shiyao, with a slight cold smile.

Shen Zhiyuan, Su Li, and the others instinctively looked at Ye Yushi, both shocked and admiring.

The current situation was tense, merely remaining silent placed them under tremendous pressure.

Unexpectedly, Ye Yushi was so fiery-tempered!

"Haha, can Jade Flute Fairy be this arrogant?"

"What Jianghu’s number one beauty, I was truly blind back then."

"Unrepentant, beyond cure."

At this, many present were immediately displeased!

Jian Qiuchi was anxious, furrowing his brow deeply and quickly reminded, "Jade Flute!"

Ye Yushi said indifferently, "Master, do not worry. In the future, I will personally seek him out to reclaim the Night Rain Sword."

Jian Qiuchi shook his head in frustration, looking at Ye Yushi with concern.

Now it’s no longer about the Night Rain Sword; a mistake today, and your reputation could be ruined!

"Indeed, they can’t say that."

At this moment, a voice was heard beside them.

The middle-aged man slowly stood up, reached for his face, and removed a human skin mask, revealing a young and handsome face, and said indifferently, "I am not dead, deserving of fate, naturally does not apply."

The crowd was stunned at first.

After all, most people had never seen Chen Tang.

"Who is this?"

"Seems... like Chen Tang?"

"Who? Chen Tang?"

"It’s him!"

Within moments, the surroundings became noisy, with waves of curses erupting.

"Brother Chen!"

Shen Zhiyuan and others were delighted to see Chen Tang alive.

"You!"

Ye Yushi was suddenly anxious at the sight.

No one expected Chen Tang to ignore his safety and stand up voluntarily.

Revealing his identity meant there was no retreat!

The onlookers had various expressions.

Over at Thunder Hall, everyone seeing Chen Tang gnashed their teeth in anger.

Ba Mountain Sword Sect was utterly puzzled.

Guo Heng was left speechless.

Jian Qiuchi was in shock, standing there dumbfounded.

Over at Plum Blossom Sword Sect, Mei Zhenyu and others cheered and showed their delight.

At Flying Snow Hall, Hall Master Bai and his wife exchanged a glance, feeling greatly surprised.

Was it him who killed the Zagu Pervert Monk and saved their daughter?

On stage, aside from the Drunken Elder who seemed unsurprised, the other Grandmasters showed a hint of amazement.

Suddenly, Jiang Feng broke into a grin, praising, "A good man!"

"Unable to see friends suffer and choosing to stand up, truly loyal and righteous."

Sect Leader Fan Qing from Tea Dao Sect shook his head, "It’s a pity."

With today’s scenario, once Chen Tang reveals his true identity, it’s impossible to leave unscathed.
