Chapter 241: The Trial Conference (Part 1)
Due to Zhuang Changhe's previous foreshadowing, Daoist Zuo and Daoist Wuxin had already been labeled as colluding with the demon race.
And the two of them were the higher-ups of the selfless sect. Now, the atmosphere in the venue had become very delicate.
The chaotic discussions below the venue had also quieted down because of this sudden change. Everyone's gaze turned to the position of the selfless sect, and their eyes flickered with a strange light.
There were even some people who had started to hate the selfless sect.
It was as if the selfless sect had become the target of public criticism.
"Humph! "I agree with sect master Zhuang's point of view. Those who colluded with the demons are traitors of the eastern wastelands. We, the cultivators of the eastern wastelands, have the obligation to kill them. "However, the selfless sect knows nothing about the actions of Daoist Zuo and Daoist Wuxin. I dare to swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao to prove it."
Hearing this, the surrounding cultivators'gazes softened.
Daoist Xuan Guang was smart enough to use the Heavenly Dao oath to clarify himself.
Everyone knew that there were no lies under the Heavenly Dao Oath. Therefore, after Daoist Xuan Guang swore an oath on the spot and there was no heavenly dao phenomenon, everyone gradually put down their suspicions.
"Fellow Daoist Xuan Guang is right. I have already interrogated Daoist Zuo and Daoist Wuxin. Indeed, the selfless sect has nothing to do with the demon race. The collusion with the demon race is only their personal action."
"Fellow Daoists, please do not have any prejudice against the selfless sect because of this."
Zhuang Changhe's words were perfectly timed. Not only did it highlight the generosity and justice of the mysterious Heavenly Sword sect, it also helped the selfless sect to mediate the situation.
Touched!
That's right. At this moment, the people of the selfless sect suddenly felt a surge of warmth in their hearts.
Even Daoist Xuan Guang, who was a little angry at first, could not help but take another look at Zhuang Changhe.
He knew that if Zhuang Changhe had explained earlier, then why would he have been forced to swear the Heavenly Dao Oath? And when Zhuang Changhe stood up after he swore the Heavenly Dao Oath, he had some ulterior motives!
However, this was not the main point at the moment.
There was one more thing that needed to be clarified after the selfless sect was taken out.
At the thought of this, Daoist Xuan Guang said in a clear voice.
"Thank you, Sect Master Zhuang, for your righteous words. I, Xuan Guang, thank you here."
"However… Daoist Zuo and Daoist heartless colluding with the demon race just based on some small news and your sect's one-sided statement is too hasty."

"I think we should give these two a chance to prove themselves. If we execute them without asking the truth, how are we different from the demons who treat human lives like dirt? It's also unfair to them."
Hearing Xuan Guang's words, everyone nodded in agreement.
After Daoist Xuan Guang finished speaking, Yin Yijun, who was sitting at the most eye-catching seat of the Clearwater sect, also spoke slowly.
"Mm, such a request isn't too much. Since it's a trial, we can't not give others a chance to explain, right? On this matter, I agree with Daoist Xuan Guang's point of view."
"Those who are clear will be clear, those who are turbid will be turbid. Sect Master Zhuang, do you think this is the truth?"
Yin Yijun smiled as he looked towards the high platform. When his gaze landed on Zhuang Changhe, he nodded his head.
"That makes sense. We should listen to him."
A white-clothed youth sitting next to Yin Yijun was fiddling with the longsword in his hand. Suddenly, he raised his head and spoke lazily.
This youth was a genius among the younger generation of the Qingshui sect. Yin Shisan was the disciple of the little sword saint of the Qingshui sect. During the last anti-demon operation, he had met with the mysterious heavenly sword sect. Lei Mingyuan recognized this youth's identity at a glance.
Hearing their conversation, everyone's eyes flickered.
Because it was just as they had said, since it was the trial assembly, they couldn't listen to the mysterious Heavenly Sword sect's one-sided words. As the parties involved, Daoist Zuo and Daoist Wuxin naturally had a part of the right to speak.
Of course, whether it was true or not, they could just make a heavenly dao oath when the time came.
"I'm here to join in the fun. There's nothing wrong with what everyone said. If we really deal with these two people, it wouldn't make sense. We should listen to their explanation."
"I'm quite interested. What kind of benefits did the demon race promise to make these two important figures of the selfless sect so willing to become lackeys? hahaha!"
It was unknown what old man Yan of the Yan Cloud Sect was planning. He was obviously discussing how to deal with the traitor, but he still showed a very excited look, which made people suspicious of his actions.
"Humph!"
"The facts are already in front of us. What else is there to prove? The evidence of these two colluding with the demons is conclusive. Just kill them directly."
"Just kill them. It's just a waste of time to continue interrogating them."
"The two traitors of the eastern wastelands who colluded with the demon race deserve to die."
As for how to deal with Daoist Zuo and Daoist Wuxin, everyone began to discuss. Some appeared to be disdainful, while others did not have much patience.
The people from the six great sects also expressed their views one by one. The scene was divided into two distinct sides. One side felt that they should be more cautious and give the two of them a chance to prove their innocence, while the other side had already started shouting and fighting, the two sides had the tendency to start fighting if they did not agree with each other.
Zhuang Changhe did not directly interrupt them. Instead, he waited until the matter had developed to a certain extent before he felt that he should intervene to mediate the situation, in case these people really started fighting in the mysterious Sky Sword sect.
"Fellow Daoists, please don't be anxious. Please calm down."
"Actually, everyone is right. We naturally have to get rid of those who colluded with the demon race, but at the same time, we can not falsely accuse a good person because of this."

"Uh… how about this, this sect master will let everyone see the evidence, and then according to everyone's opinions, let these two talk about what happened. Perhaps we can get some useful information about the demon race."
Hearing Zhuang Changhe's words, the cultivators stopped their discussion, and most of them nodded in agreement.
Not to mention other things, they knew too little about the demon race. Other than a few words from some old monsters and the sect's ancient books, most people now had only a half-understanding of the demon race.
Such a good opportunity to understand the demon race naturally attracted a lot of people.
Zhuang Changhe took out a storage ring from his sleeve and held it in his hand to show everyone. Then, he explained the origin of this storage ring.
"This is the storage ring of Daoist zuo of the selfless sect. The things inside are definitely unimaginable."
As he said this, the corner of Zhuang Changhe's mouth curled up into a sneer.
Immediately after, a large number of items flew out of the storage ring and piled up in the empty space in front of Zhuang Changhe.
Hiss hiss!
Was this the storage ring of a sect master? He was indeed filthy rich!
Just as everyone was sighing with emotion, Yin Yijun's gaze suddenly focused and he exclaimed.
"Tai Yi horsetail whisk?"
What Tai Yi horsetail whisk?
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing why Yin Yijun was so excited. Following his gaze, a snow-white horsetail whisk appeared in front of everyone's eyes. There was a faint white light surging on the horsetail whisk, glistening like thousands of stars in the sky!
At a glance, they knew that this horsetail whisk was definitely not an ordinary item.
Could this be the Tai Yi horsetail whisk that Yin Yijun had mentioned? They didn't expect the sect master of the clear water sect, who thought himself to be noble, to be so worldly when he saw a treasure. Everyone secretly cursed in their hearts.
As soon as Yin Yijun's voice fell, there were several surprised and joyful voices. Complicated voices sounded from all over the square at the same time.
"That's the Crimson firmament treasured sword, the treasure of Zhenshan of our Swallow Cloud sect."
"The treasure of our sect is among them. What's going on?"
"The Sunset Divine Bow, this is the treasure of our sect. Only the sect master can use it!"
"…"
Amidst the discussion, Daoist Xuan Guang revealed a bitter expression, because the sect-guarding magic treasure of his selfless sect was also among them. However, it was not unusual to think that this was Daoist Zuo's storage ring, but the magic treasures of the major sects had appeared in the storage ring.., daoist zuo and Daoist Wu Xin would not be able to clear their names even if they jumped into the Yellow River.
Sigh!
Daoist zuo, Daoist Wu Xin, you are killing the selfless sect!
From now on, the people of the selfless sect would probably not be able to raise their heads when they walked through the eastern wastelands.
At the thought of this, Xuan Guang could not help but let out a long sigh. His eyes revealed a deep sorrow.
Chapter 242: The Trial Conference (Part 2)
The reputation of a well-established sect, a reputation that had been accumulated over a thousand years of heritage was destroyed in just an instant.
The matter of the Sect Master and the Great Elder colluding with the demon race in the Selfless Sect had become a stain in their history from today onwards. And all of this was thanks to the two people on the stage who remained silent.
"Damn it, how did things turn out like this?"
Daoist Xuan Guang's initial wishful thinking and hostility towards Zhuang Changhe and the Mysterious Sky Sword Sect had all disappeared. What replaced them now was an endless sorrow.
"Sect Master Zhuang, this Taiyi horsetail whisk is an item of our Clearwater Sect. I hope that fellow Daoist can return it to me. Our Clearwater Sect will definitely remember Sect Master Zhuang's favor." Yin Yijun retracted his gaze and cupped his hands towards Zhuang Changhe on the stage.
"That's right. This scarlet firmament treasured sword is our sect's sect guarding treasure. Since we saw that old Daoist today, we might as well bring him back. Sect Master Zhuang shouldn't take advantage of us, right?"
After Yin Yijun, old man Yan of the Yan Yun Sect also said this in a strange manner.
The conference to judge the traitors of the demon race suddenly emanated everyone's begging intentions.
The other sects that had discovered their own magic treasures also asked for them from Zhuang Changhe, their faces full of excitement.
Zhuang Changhe nodded and looked around the crowd below the stage. Then, he slowly spoke.
"Fellow Daoists, please rest assured. I did not recognize the ownership of these items before, so I did not return them. How about this? After the conference is over, I will personally return all the magic treasures of each sect."
"We are currently dealing with the matter of the trial of traitors. Please wait for a moment!"
Whew!
Hearing Zhuang Changhe's words, the representatives of the various great sects all heaved a sigh of relief!
They were finally relieved!
If Zhuang Changhe pretended to be dumb and refused to return the magic treasures, they did not know what to do. If they tried to snatch them, this was the territory of the Blackheaven Sword Sect. Just the sect protecting-formation that was rumored to be of a godly level was enough to make them feel apprehensive.
Hence, Zhuang Changhe's actions had brought them a good impression.
At this moment, they did not say much.
Some people who did not know could not help but curse when they saw this.
If they were still uncertain before, now that they were caught red-handed, it would be useless even if Daoist Zuo and Daoist Wuxin talked about it.

The voices of denouncement in the crowd stirred up the intense atmosphere.
The crowd erupted. Everyone looked at Daoist Zuo and Daoist Heartless. Unfortunately, they were now under control and could not make any retorts.
An elder of a sect clenched his fists in anger and said.
"Now the evidence is conclusive. These two have betrayed the Selfless Sect and colluded with the demon race. Sect Master Zhuang, quickly kill them to preserve the lives of the six sect masters and the creatures that were killed or injured during the demon race's invasion."
"Sigh! This old man is blind. I actually misjudged the two of them."
"Such traitors from the Eastern Wastelands. If we don't kill them, what's the use of leaving them alive? Kill them!"
"Colluding with the demon race, everyone must be executed."
Seeing that the atmosphere in the scene was starting to lose control, Zhuang Changhe immediately let out a dry cough. A powerful aura mixed with pressure transmitted his voice into everyone's ears.
Although his voice wasn't loud, it covered the voices of everyone present.
"Everyone, calm down. Just now, there were a few fellow Daoists who wished to give these two a chance to explain. Since we've already waited for a period of time, we're not lacking in this little bit of time. Next, let's hear how they explain!"
Due to the series of operations earlier, Zhuang Changhe had already obtained the support of most of the cultivators. And because his own magic treasures were in his hands, the six great sects naturally wouldn't have any objections!
Therefore, when Zhuang Changhe said this, everyone suppressed the Killing Intent in their hearts and stopped.
"Yes, sixth brother, untie them!"
Lei Laoliu and his sect master looked at each other, and then used a special method to untie the seals that were branded on Daoist Zuo and Daoist Wuxin's bodies.
"Lei Laoliu, f*ck you! One day, I will lead the demon race to flatten the Dark Sky Sword Sect. At that time, I will drink your blood and eat your flesh."
"Hahaha!"
The moment his restraints were released, Zuo Daoist cursed at Lei Laoliu.
God knows how he had endured these past few days. He was constantly being punished by lightning and was thrown into a dark secret room… Lei Laoliu was always able to change his ways to torture him, and he was able to do it differently every day, it was simply unbearable.
He was lucky to be able to live until now.
"Hmph! He's just the demons' lackey!"
When Lei Laoliu heard someone insulting him, his face darkened.
"You should feel lucky. If it wasn't for the Sect Master keeping you alive, I would have long cut you down by the sword, and it would be your turn to nag here."
"You…"

Hearing the conversation between the two, there was an uproar.
Lei Laoliu was a ruthless person in the cultivation world. What good would he get if he caught him? However, these two were traitors of the Eastern Wastelands, so Lei Laoliu's actions were quite gratifying.
"How dare you, Daoist Zuo, collude with the demon race to harm our Eastern Wastelands. You even set up an ambush for the sect masters of several great sects. Your crimes are numerous, and killing you is already considered a bargain."
"We have already given you a chance. Hurry up and tell us how you colluded with the demons so that we can give you a decent way to die."
By the time the trial had reached this point, more than half of the time had passed and all the necessary effects had been achieved as scheduled. Zhuang Changhe did not waste any more time and directly asked.
Daoist Zuo's expression was playful and did not have the slightest awareness of being Frank.
"Zhuang Changhe, you are not a good person either. So what if I colluded with the demon race, why should I tell you?"
"In any case, I will die. I am not stupid."
"F*ck, everyone, look, this is the ugly face of a traitor."
"Even now, he still does not know how to repent. What is the point of keeping such a stubborn person? Everyone move aside… I will chop this traitor to death with my next slash."
How strange!
You're a traitor who colluded with the demon race, yet you're still reasonable. Who gave you the courage? Is it the demon race?
Those who could come to the trial assembly were at least the higher-ups of the sects or other forces. Many people from various forces had died in the operation to resist the demon race. Seeing Zuo Daoist's arrogant appearance, they couldn't help but feel angry!
Some people even pulled out their weapons from their waists. If it were not for the other cultivators who tried to stop them, they would have run to the high platform to duel with Daoist Zuo.
It could only be said that they had done a good job and gained a large amount of hatred points for themselves. Even the Selfless Sect did not dare to speak out to help now, for fear of being implicated by Daoist Zuo.
"Sect Master, I'm afraid that this person has gone crazy. Hand him over to me. I'm very confident that I can make him speak."
Seeing Zhuang Changhe frown slightly, Lei Laoliu volunteered to help. His eyes revealed an eager expression.
"Are you really confident?"
"Sect Leader, you may not know this, but I've recently developed a new type of punishment. As long as he is used on Zuo Daoren, he will definitely be able to explain clearly that he peered at the female disciples of the sect."
Zhuang Changhe originally had some expectations, but when he heard Lei Laoliu's last sentence, a row of black lines appeared on his face.
When the crowd heard that they were going to use the punishment on Daoist Zuo, their eyes were filled with excitement. However, after that, a strange expression also appeared on their faces.
Cough, cough!
This leader of the Mysterious Sky Sword Sect was really extraordinary. Even his words were so down-to-earth, Haha!
Zhuang Changhe glared at Lei Laoliu. How could he not know what this fellow was thinking? It was obvious that he was unhappy after being scolded by someone just now. This was clearly a blatant opportunity for revenge!
Zuo Daoren simply stared.
Chapter 243: The Trial Conference (Part 3)
"Sect master, this punishment of mine is called the Great Thunder technique. Its principle is…"
When he heard Lei Laoliu describe the process of the punishment, Daoist Zuo's pupils constricted, and his body couldn't help but tremble.
He knew Lei Laoliu's methods very well. In any case, he was going to die anyway, so why should he suffer before he died.
Hu!
He slowly exhaled.
"There's no need. It's just about me colluding with the demons. There's no need to go through so much trouble."
"I'll say it!"
..
"F * ck! Didn't Daoist zuo prefer to die just now? I thought he was a man. Why did he suddenly decide to confess his crimes?"
"Could it be that he has found his conscience and wants to make up for his sins in order to have peace of mind?"
"Peace of mind your head. He was obviously frightened by Chief Lei's punishment. Even though I heard it from afar just now, the Goosebumps on my body had not disappeared. I can imagine that if I really had to face such a punishment, I would rather die!"
Someone saw through Zuo Daoren's thoughts and immediately said it out loud.
Some of the cultivators who were still puzzled also came to a realization at this moment. A warning signal appeared in their hearts.
That Was…
Lei Laoliu of the mysterious Sky Sword sect was a ruthless person. He could not be provoked!
Zhuang Changhe watched this scene indifferently. Everything was developing according to his original expectations. He had already predicted this when the trial was held. Next, he would hear it from Daoist Zuo and Daoist wuxin.., by expressing what he wanted to say, the mission of the trial would be completed.
"Alright, since you're willing to say it, then I'll ask you. You only need to answer."
Lei Laoliu's new punishment had already broken Daoist Zuo's psychological line of defense. Now, he might as well let go and tell Zhuang Changhe everything he asked without holding back.
"Daoist zuo, various sects, is the disappearance of the sect leader related to you?"
"Yes, it is indeed related to me. Perhaps, it's more appropriate to say that this was originally my plan."
Daoist zuo nodded nonchalantly and sat cross-legged on the ground, disregarding his image. A hint of viciousness could be seen in his eyes.
"Everyone knows that my cultivation has been stuck at the peak of the culmination stage for several hundred years. If I don't make a breakthrough in my cultivation, my lifespan will only be a hundred years."
"At this moment, someone from the sanctum of sages came to me and said that he could help me make a breakthrough in my cultivation. The prerequisite is that I have to work under him."
"There's no hope for bitter cultivation, and my lifespan is approaching. What do you think I should do at this moment?"
If you want to read more chapters, please visit NovelBin.Com to experience faster update speed
"If it were you, what would you have done?"
So that was the case.
Daoist zuo had actually chosen to make a deal with the demons in order to survive.
Life and justice — how to choose was a philosophical question.
Everyone present also fell silent.
"Hahaha, it seems that many people here are the same as me!"
Daoist zuo seemed to have touched a happy spot and laughed crazily.
"Humph! Although we value life, we won't collude with the demons until we die. We Are Different."
"You still have a hundred years to live, but you can't even wait for a hundred years. It means that your demonic nature has been deeply ingrained. You deserve what you got today!"
"Don't you dare confuse the masses with your demonic words!"
Faced with the harsh words of the cultivators, Daoist Zuo laughed instead of getting angry.
"Hahaha, a bunch of hypocrites."
"If you were in the same situation as me, I'm afraid that you would agree faster than me…"
Zhuang Changhe's gaze was as cold as an ice mountain. His gaze, which was filled with dense coldness, landed on Daoist zuo, causing him to stop what he was about to say.
An overbearing pressure was suddenly activated. Spiritual power surged and sent Zuo Daoren flying several feet away.
Zuo Daoren's cultivation base had been sealed. At this moment, he was merely a mortal body. Immediately, he spat out a mouthful of blood and bent his waist as he cried out in pain on the ground.
"You dare to disturb our Dao Hearts. If there is a next time, I will definitely kill you!"
Zhuang Changhe's gaze was ice-cold. As he swept his gaze over everyone, the chill that emanated from his body gradually disappeared.
"F * ck! Sect leader Zhuang is mighty!"
Below the stage, someone had let out an expletive of shock. Then, under everyone's astonished gazes, he sat back down.
Cough Cough!
On the surface, Daoist zuo cooperated, but in his heart, he had another idea. The question he had raised just now was nothing more than to shake everyone's dao heart. As long as this seed was sown, perhaps one day, it would take root and sprout for no reason.
Zhuang Changhe's move was also to interrupt his bewitchment.
The people present were all the upper echelons of the various large factions. Among them, there were some extraordinary existences whose cultivation had stagnated due to their talent. If they listened to Daoist Zuo's bewitchment, the consequences would be severe.
At this moment, when everyone thought about it carefully, they could not help but feel their scalps go numb.
Next, in order to prevent Daoist zuo from playing any tricks, Zhuang Changhe directly sealed him.
On Daoist heartless's side, things were much better. This was because he had always harbored a grudge against Zuo Daoist's actions.
If you want to read more chapters, please visit NovelBin.Com to experience faster update speed
At this moment, he told the whole story of Zuo Daoist's dealings with the demon race.
Listening to Daoist heartless's story, the cultivators present were one after another. Their eyes spat out thick flames, like a raging fire, instantly lighting up the atmosphere.
Some of the cultivators were even unable to stand the longswords at their waists.
Daoist wuxin knew that it would be difficult for him to survive today, so he simply threw caution to the wind. As long as he knew something, he did not need Zhuang Changhe to inquire about it. He explained everything from beginning to end in one breath.
"Ah! Damn it!"
"Such people living in this world really pollute the air."
"Kill them. Sect leader Zhuang, quickly give the order. It is truly an apology for such people to live. They are the sons of the east barren who lost their lives fighting against the demons."
"More than that. How many mortals in the secular world have died at their hands? They are truly heartless things. For their own selfish desires, they actually disregarded so many living beings. If they don't die, it will be difficult for the heavens to tolerate it!"
In fact, when they first learned about this news, Zhuang Changhe and the others had the same thoughts as them. If they had not been left to prepare for the trial, they would have ordered Lei Laoliu to kill the two of them long ago.
However, at the very least, through this trial, they had fully utilized their remaining passion.
Looking at the excited scene in front of him, Zhuang Changhe knew that his goal had been achieved. The two of them were no longer useful.
According to everyone's wishes, the mysterious Sky Sword sect would execute Daoist Zuo and Daoist wuxin on the high platform.
Daoist Wuxin's expression was indifferent. It was obvious that he had already predicted his ending. As for Daoist zuo, his entire body was sealed and he could not move. One could only see fear flowing in his eyes.
What a joke!
He originally still had a hundred years of life left, but the endless greed in his heart had brought him to the end of his life ahead of time.
Such a dramatic scene made people sigh with emotion.
The representatives of the major sects watched coldly. No one made a sound. Only the people from the selfless sect had complicated expressions on their faces. After all, no matter what, the two people on the stage were the masters of their sects. Unfortunately.., at this moment, it was too late for them to disown their relationship. How could they rush up and stop them!
Daoist wuxin smiled bitterly and looked at Zhuang Changhe and the others who were also on the high platform. He seemed to have thought of something.
"Sect master Zhuang, can I make a small request?"
HMM? He still wanted to make a request even when he was about to die.
When he heard Daoist Wuxin's words, there was a wave of objections below the platform. Daoist wuxin knew his situation and sighed deeply before stepping into the destruction formation that he had prepared.
The destruction formation was specially set up to deal with traitors. Once a cultivator stepped into it, they would die instantly and their dao would vanish.
Ah! ! !
A miserable cry sounded as Daoist Zuo's figure disappeared into the violent formation.
When it was Daoist heartless's turn, he turned his head to look at the people present and immediately cupped his fists at them.
"Yesterday's cause, today's result. I, Daoist heartless, brought this upon myself. I shall serve as a reminder to everyone here!"
"Farewell, everyone."
Everyone was silent as they watched Daoist heartless charge forward and disappear into the violent energy.
..
Chapter 244: News of the Son of Fate
The trial conference had already reached its end.
After Zhuang Changhe gave an encouraging speech, he announced the news of the Demon God Sect's coming into being.
This caused another huge uproar.
When they asked if the news was true, the sect masters of the other sects also testified. Because other than the Mysterious Sky Sword Sect's ancestor, the other old sects also had some old monsters. How could the aura of the Demon God Sect's coming into being be hidden from them.
When everyone heard about the Demon God Sect, the entire hall was in an uproar.
Since the matter had come to this point, they had to believe it even if they did not believe it. After all, this was a matter that concerned the survival of the Eastern Wastelands. If the Sect Masters of the other sects spoke up together, then it was definitely true.
Following that, Zhuang Changhe also took this opportunity to inform everyone about the approximate time of the appearance of the Demon God Sect so that they would be ready to guard against them.
After hearing such an important piece of news, everyone did not have the mood to stay in the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect any longer. They all found an excuse to return to their sects.
The one who benefited the most from today's trial conference should be the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect. At this moment, Zhuang Changhe could not help but smile.
Through the trial conference, not only did they destroy the rumors about the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect colluding with the demons, they also revealed the disappearance of the Sect Masters of the six great sects. Apart from that, they also gained the support and support of a large number of righteous people.
Today's conference could be considered as killing two birds with one stone!
In the main hall of the sect meeting.
Zhuang Changhe sat on the main seat of the main hall, and the sect leaders of the six great sects took their seats one by one. Everyone looked at Zhuang Changhe with sparkling eyes.
Zhuang Changhe was not surprised that they did not leave.
He ordered his disciples to serve tea, and he smiled as he sipped his tea, not saying a word.
Because he knew that someone was more anxious than him.
He looked around at the crowd.
Ever since Yin Yijun of the Clearwater Sect entered the grand hall, he had been sipping the tea by himself. He didn't show any trace of anxiety.
He was not anxious, but the others could not keep their cool.
"Fellow Daoist Zhuang, the trial has ended. Can you return the magic treasures to us?"
Old Man Yan saw that Zhuang Changhe did not take the initiative to return the magic treasure. After drinking a few cups of tea, he clicked his tongue and said.
After he said that, the representatives of the various sects also voiced out their support.
"That's right. Since the Demon God Sect is about to be born, we have to hurry back and make arrangements. Sect Master Zhuang, please take out the magic treasure!"
"As long as fellow Daoist Zhuang is willing to return the magic treasure, our weapon refining sect will definitely remember your favor."
"Huh! I was still thinking about how to deal with the matter of the Demon God Sect and had forgotten about it for a moment. I hope fellow Daoists don't take offense!"
Zhuang Changhe slapped his thigh as if he had just remembered the matter. He cupped his hands toward the representatives of the various sects present.

Eh…
When everyone heard this, they were stunned for a moment before a trace of suspicion appeared on their faces.
Forgotten?
Was it really that simple? Perhaps there was something else behind this?
A tribulation transcending mighty figure, the leader of a sect. If it was said that Zhuang Changhe had forgotten about the matter of returning the magic treasure, no one present believed it. However, in order to get their own magic treasure back, no one exposed it.
"Haha, Sect Leader Zhuang wants to manage this huge Blackheaven Sword Sect. Just now, he took a break from the matters of the trial assembly. With such a busy and hard work, it's normal for him to forget about it."
An elder of the Weapon-Refining Sect laughed.
It must be known that the items of the other sects were either magic treasures or fortune, and what their sect lost was the secret manual of weapon refining. This was not something that any heavenly materials or earthly treasures could compare to.
Therefore, when Zhuang Changhe's voice fell, he quickly stepped forward to smooth things over so that he could get the supreme secret manual of weapon refining as soon as possible.
Although the Weapon-refining Sect was not famous among the top ten sects, it was because their martial strength was much weaker than the other sects.
However, their strength lay in forging divine weapons, which was why they were ranked among the top ten sects even though they were weak.
"So it's Master Li of the weapon refining sect. I'm sorry!"
"Please take a look!"
Zhuang changhe nodded to master Li of the weapon refining sect. Then, he took out Zuo Daoren's storage ring, and several items wrapped in spiritual energy flew out.
"Crimson Firmament treasure sword!"
"Tai Yi horsetail whisk!"
"…"
"Haha, Thank You, fellow Daoist Zhuang!"
Master Li of the refining sect stroked a piece of black iron. His wrinkled face bloomed like a chrysanthemum, and even his voice carried a kind of joy.
Others might not know, but he knew in his heart that this ordinary-looking piece of black iron was the secret of the sect, the supreme refining manual.
After everyone received their own magic treasures, they looked at Zhuang Changhe with much gentler eyes.
"Alright, since we have the item, then I won't accompany you anymore. Goodbye~"
Old Man Yan waved at everyone and swaggered out of the hall.
At this moment, a loud voice came from Zhuang Changhe's mouth.
"Fellow Daoist Yan, please wait!"
"Sect Leader Zhuang, is there anything else?"
Turning his head, a trace of displeasure flashed across Old Man Yan's face.
His intuition told him that this was not a simple matter from the start, so he had wanted to take back the magic treasure and leave as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, he was stopped by Zhuang Changhe.
"I have received news that the Son of Fate has been born. I wonder if everyone has heard?" Zhuang Changhe said indifferently.

What?
The Son of Fate!
Different from the forces that had left, the people present were all the higher-ups of the major sects. They naturally knew about some ancient secrets. When they heard Zhuang Changhe say the name of the Son of Fate, their eyes could not help but flicker.
Obviously, they were not unfamiliar with the Son of Fate.
"Fellow Daoist Zhuang, you mean you know the whereabouts of the Son of Fate?" Yin Buping, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked.
"That's right!"
"Apart from the trial conference today, there is one more thing I want to discuss with all of you. That is the news about the Son of Fate!"
"Since it is related to the Son of Fate, then let me hear it as well!"
Old Man Yan rolled his eyes and staggered back to his seat. It was obvious that he was quite interested in the son of fate.
Zhuang Changhe nodded his head in satisfaction when he saw everyone's heated gazes.
"Fellow Daoists, you should know the legend of the son of Fate. Although the Demon God Sect and the devil palm behind them are powerful, as long as we can find the Son of Fate, the Eastern Wastelands will have more hope."
Everyone did not refute this.
Legend! The Son of Fate was the guardian God of the Eastern Wastelands. When the world fell into darkness and the demon race wreaked havoc in the Eastern Wastelands, the Son of Fate would come into being and bring a glimmer of light to the living beings of the east barren.
Actually, the various great sects had also been ordered to search everywhere for the child of fate. Some had even dispatched figures at the ancestor level. Unfortunately, until now, no one had found a trace of the child of fate.
Therefore, when Zhuang Changhe said that he had news of the Son of Fate everyone could not help but fall silent.
"Everyone should know about the red moon phenomenon half a year ago. That was the Demon God Sect's trick. They used the flesh and blood of mortals to set up the demon race's evil array. Finally, they summoned a true demon mighty figure from the array, a Demon King who had ascended to the ninth transformation realm."
Hiss hiss!
Upon hearing this, a few gasps suddenly sounded in the hall.
Oh my God!
A demon king who had ascended to the ninth transformation realm had arrived in the Eastern Wastelands. Was this a sign that the demon race was going to launch a large-scale attack?
What was the concept of a Demon King who had ascended to the ninth transformation realm? Even if all the experts in the hall were added together, they would not be a match for a single move from him.
Only some old monsters who had hidden themselves from the world would be able to contend against him.
No, such a major event had to be reported back to the sect to the patriarch. Only they could deal with it.
Looking at everyone's fearful expressions, Zhuang Changhe almost couldn't help but laugh.
At this moment, Yin Buping said with a bitter smile.
"Fellow Daoist Zhuang, why are you joking with us? If the demon king has really appeared, then why hasn't there been any news about it in the Eastern Wastelands until now?"
Yi!
That's right. Logically speaking, the Demon King's appearance should have caused quite a stir, but until today, there hadn't been any news about it!
One had to know that the Demon King had a combative nature and liked to feed on humans. However, more than half a year had passed. Don't even mention the Demon King, it wasn't even easy to find a half-demon with demonic Qi.
Chapter 245: The White-Clothed Youth
"Hahaha!"
Facing everyone's puzzled gazes, Zhuang Changhe laughed out loud.
"It's not that I deliberately deceived everyone. That Demon King did indeed descend onto the Eastern Wastelands. However, he was killed in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn!"
"Perhaps because the Demon King was already dead, those half-demon people who were causing trouble all over the Eastern Wastelands also disappeared."
After carefully digesting Zhuang Changhe's words, everyone present frowned.
According to Zhuang Changhe's words, combined with the strange things caused by the appearance of the blood moon, it made some sense.
However, he was talking about a Demon King who had ascended to the ninth rank! Who had the ability to kill him in the time it takes for an incense stick to burn? Could it be that some old monster had made a move?
Old Man Yan seemed to have thought of something, and a glimmer of light suddenly flashed in his chaotic eyes.
"You're saying that the Demon King might have been killed by the Son of Fate?"
"That's right!"
Zhuang Changhe could not help but look up to the old Daoist when he heard this.
This seemingly weak old Daoist was not simple. He could guess the result just from a few words from his mouth!
It was better to provoke a fierce tiger in the mountains than to bully Old Man Yan. A fierce tiger could still be killed when it came out of the mountains, and the old man would be buried in the yellow springs in anger.
This Old Man Yan was just as the rumors said. He was not easy to fool.
Following that, under Zhuang Changhe's narration, everyone finally knew what had happened.
It was rare that no one refuted what Old Sword Monster saw.
Not to mention anything else, with old monster sword's identity, since he had seen it with his own eyes, there was naturally no need to be suspicious.
Of course, the news about the Son of Fate was not over yet.
Soon after, Zhuang Changhe also revealed the exact location of the Son of Fate.
Although he did not say it directly, everyone understood what he meant through his obscure words.
The Son of Fate was actually in the hands of the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect!
Regarding this news, the crowd could not help but cause a small commotion.
One had to know that the Son of Fate would play an extremely important role in the future. Not only for the sect, but also for the entire Eastern Wastelands, it was an important strategic resource.
Although it had been thousands of years since the demon race was born, after the so-called half-demon attack last time, everyone knew that the situation was not very optimistic.
Therefore, to receive news of the son of fate at this time was tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow.

What a pity!
The one who discovered the Son of Fate was the Mysterious Sky Sword Sect. If it was their sect, that would be great!
Since things had come to this, they could only listen to Zhuang Changhe's intentions.
Unexpectedly, Zhuang Changhe did not make any requests. Instead, it was as if he was only giving them information out of goodwill.
After he finished speaking, he quietly sipped his tea, looking very calm.
"Eh?"
The higher-ups of the various sects were listening when Zhuang Changhe suddenly stopped. Everyone could not help but frown.
The Mysterious Sky Sword Sect was forcing them to declare their stance!
When they were defending against the demon race last time, because the various sects were bewitched by the Heartless Daoist, not only did they not lend a hand in time, they even gathered a group of people to attack the Mysterious Sky Sword Sect.
How could this old fox Zhuang Changhe be so forgetful.
After clearing himself up at today's trial conference and establishing a certain level of reputation, he could be considered to have left the main forces of the few great sects behind and then spread the news of the Son of Fate…
Wasn't all of this to force everyone to come out and express their stance?
It seemed that the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect might have said that Zhuang Changhe was still brooding over what happened last time!
But what else could they say? It was all because they had not rubbed their eyes and mistakenly believed the villain, which led to the current situation.
Thinking of this, everyone could not help but feel a trace of guilt in their hearts.
"Fellow Daoist Zhuang, it was my fault for coming to the clear water sect previously. I, Yin Yijun, am here to apologize to your sect. We are all members of the Eastern Wastelands, and there will inevitably be an opportunity to join hands to deal with the demon race. I hope that your sect can forget about the past and attack the demon army that invaded the Eastern Wastelands together."
"That's right, that's right. The Blackheaven Sword Sect's reputation was tarnished by the mistake of trusting a traitor. We are also here to apologize to your sect."
Since he had realized his mistake, Yin Yijun naturally did not want to avoid it, so he simply took this opportunity to express his apology. After he finished speaking, the other sects also followed closely behind.
Without a doubt, Zhuang Changhe's goal had been achieved.
However, this was not his final goal.
The key was still the follow-up development. Perhaps only when the demon race descended upon the Eastern Wastelands could the backup plan he had laid out be used.
"Haha, fellow Daoists, it's too serious. This matter can not be blamed on you. It's just that the demon race is too cunning."
"Let's not talk about anything else. Even if our Mysterious Sky Sword Sect were to encounter such a matter, we might do something even more outrageous. Therefore, I can understand your feelings."
After saying a few simple words, Zhuang Changhe acted courteously and righteously, causing the expressions of the representatives of the various sects present to soften.
"Alright, the Demon God Sect is about to be born. Fellow Daoists, as the Sect Masters of the various sects, you must have many things to arrange next."
"I won't waste your time. Please go ahead!"
After a short period of silence, the higher-ups of the various sects could not help but look at Zhuang Changhe in disbelief.
"Fellow Daoist Zhuang, you're leaving just like that?"

"Eh?"
Yin Buping, the Sect Master of the Clearwater Sect, frowned slightly, as if he was also puzzled by Zhuang Changhe's actions.
They had already prepared themselves mentally. Next, with the misunderstanding and the matter of the Son of Fate, the Mysterious Sky Sword Sect would make a big deal out of it.
However, the truth was that they did not make any requests at all.
This caught everyone off guard. No one expected Zhuang Changhe to send them off at this moment. Furthermore, he had left without giving them any chance to react.
It was not an exaggeration to say that his actions had stunned everyone present.
However, they had already obtained what they needed to take and knew what they needed to know. If they did not leave now, would they be waiting for dinner!
Thus, everyone stood up and took their leave.
…
At the same time.
At the foot of the Sunset Peak, the scene of flowers blooming and birds chirping and flowers fragrant suddenly attracted the attention of a white-robed youth.
"Oh? I didn't expect the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect to have such a precious place. Let's go take a look."
Although there was only a distance of less than 30 meters between the top of the mountain and the outside of the mountain, there were two different scenes.
If the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect outside of the mountain peak could be said to be a beautiful holy land for cultivation, then the scene above the sunset peak could be said to be the residence of a celestial being.
That's right, it was that exaggerated!
The Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect was nourished by the spiritual vein underground, so its scenery and spiritual energy density naturally surpassed other places. However, it also depended on what was compared to it. If the comparison was to the Sunset Peak, then it could be said that there was a difference between heaven and earth.
It turned out that many Mysterious Heavanly Sword Sect disciples would choose to come to the Sunset Peak to meditate and cultivate. There was no choice because the spiritual energy here was too dense. If Zhuang Changhe had not ordered them not to disturb Su Xing and the others.., they all wished they could have just stuck to their enchantments and continue to cultivate.
In their line of sight, there were at least a hundred people meditating at the foot of the Sunset Peak.
Sitting by the side of the road to meditate and cultivate, such a scene was truly breathtaking.
When the white-clothed youth saw this, he immediately felt a sense of curiosity.
"This is the important place of the Mysterious Sky Sword Sect. Who are you? Why are you here?"
A few of the disciples of the Mysterious Sky Sword Sect who were meditating also noticed the white-clothed youth who was walking over, and their expressions became a little displeased.
This place had already been listed as the important place of the Mysterious Sky Sword Sect. The appearance of an unfamiliar youth dressed in the clothing of other sects could not help but cause people to be wary.
The white-clothed youth proudly cupped his hands.
"Clearwater Sect, Yin Shisan."
"Eh? Why are you here?"
A surprised voice came from the crowd, as if someone had recognized the youth's identity.
"Senior Brother Ye Youji, do you know this person?" Beside Ye Youji, an early stage Golden Core disciple spoke out.
"He is the Clearwater Sect's eldest senior brother of this batch, and also the strongest younger generation in this batch. People call him Yin Shisan without a single sword."
"Hiss…"
