Ch 388 - Controversy

…
Although Lei Jingtian was very skillful at covering his expression, there was still a hint of true essence fluctuation that he emitted from the shock a moment ago. All of this was greatly captured by Mu Yuhuang's senses.
"This old fox!" Mu Yuhuang's face darkened. He finally understood why Lei Jingtian had persistently opposed him, hindering him repeatedly. It was very likely that he was collaborating together with Lei Mubai. 'Lei Jingtian most likely sold himself to the South Sea Demon Region. There was a high chance that what Lin Ming said was true. Action first, consequences later, brave boy! The key is, how can he prove this? In this situation, it was impossible to torture this information from Lei Mubai. '
Mu Yuhuang knew what was at stake. If Lin Ming could not provide a clear and adequate explanation, he would most likely die a horrible death. It was impossible for Divine Phoenix Island to protect him in that case.
Lei Jingtian's entire body flashed with an arch of thunder. His eyes were like a savage looking at his prey.
Even the Deep Earth Sect Shi Zhongkun was standing behind him. Previously, he had been humiliated and defeated by Lin Ming in a battle of words. Now that he had the chance to kick Lin Ming as he descended, how could he possibly miss it?
“You made a false accusation, son! Alrighty! What evil thoughts do you have! Due to some discord, you even destroyed all the meridians of Nephew Lei Mubai. If you don't give an explanation for this, then I'll break all your meridians. Otherwise, just how many faces would my Five Element Region still have !? ”
As Shi Zhongkun spoke, his body aura erupted. With the combination of the two Revolving Core masters being pressing Lin Ming together, even though Mu Yuhuang was standing in front of him, he still felt the pressure on him soar.
Lin Ming did not have a good impression of this Shi Zhongkun. His voice was low as he said, “Older Shi, take no responsibility for speaking nonsense. ”
Shi Zhongkun sneered. “As if you knew not to babble nonsense. You are saying that Nephew Lei Mubai is a spy from the South Sea Demon Region? Then what evidence do you have? If you can't produce proof, then be prepared to pay with your life! "
As Shi Zhongkun spoke, the disciples of the Five Element Region were moved into a frenzy. Especially those who had been so oppressed by Lin Ming, such as Chu Yunfei, Chen Kun, and Shi Hanshan. They all demanded that Lin Ming pay with his life.
"Lin Ming, this is no trivial matter. If you have proof, then quickly produce. Otherwise, I can't protect you. "Said Mu Yuhuang with a true essence sound transmission. There was a bit of criticism in his heart. This was a big deal but he had not even spoken to her before acting.
Lin Ming took a deep breath then replied, "Senior Mu, I have no choice; I simply do not have any conclusive evidence at that time to confirm my suspicions. If I've told you before, the Council of Elders might need to be held. If that happened, I was worried that someone would be notified beforehand, and the result was Lei Mubai who had somehow escaped. So I had no choice but to act first and explain later. ”
Lin Ming realized that even though Mu Yuhuang believed in him, he would not act only with his side of the story. He would actually bring up this matter with the Council of Elders, and then the matter would be canceled. After all, this spy was only a junior. Even if he were to be killed, it would not have a huge impact on anything. But if they were wrong, then it would be a catastrophe.
When that happened, Lin Ming could only helplessly watch as Lei Mubai left Divine Phoenix Island and returned to the South Sea Demon Region. He'll be the snake waiting to bite him.
Lin Ming had a family, he did not want someone like that to aim at him. One Ouyang Boyan was enough for him. Ouyang Boyan was from the Seven Profound Valleys so he wouldn't dare to act too recklessly, but to Lei Mubai, he wasn't limited by this disturbance. Therefore he had no choice but to cripple Lei Mubai to cut off the path of retreat for him.
Mu Yuhuang's complexion completely changed. "Whatdidyou say? You don't have conclusive evidence? This is just a guess !? ”
Lin Ming said, "No, I still have the certainty that I am right …"
As Lin Ming spoke, he stepped forward and stood in front of Shi Zhongkun and Lei Jingtian, directly facing the pressure from these two Great Elders.
Shi Zhongkun's expression scoffed mockingly, as if he had already seen a future where Lin Ming's meridians would all be damaged
As for Lei Jingtian, he looked extremely savage. He felt his heart tighten a little, but he still could not believe that Lin Ming had any proof. As long as Lin Ming could not bring forth evidence, he could insist that the accusations Lin Ming made were merely lies and baseless slander.
Lin Ming cupped his hands in his chest in a polite gesture and calmly said, "Thunder Sovereign, please be patient. If you can confirm that I'm lying, then you can kill me or torture me or do anything else you want. ”
Lei Jingtian frowned, his eyes flashing with killing intent. “This is what you said! If you have no proof, this old man will beat you to death! "
As Lei Jingtian spoke, her eyes were actually fixed on Mu Yuhuang. He said to him, “Great Master Yuhuang, this is what your disciple said personally. Is there anything you want to say !? ”
Mu Yuhuang's skin became increasingly ugly. At this moment, no matter how strong he was, it was impossible to justify any reason to protect Lin Ming.
My Yuhuang voice sank a few points, his voice reached Arctic temperatures, "Since Lin Ming made this promise himself, of course I will not interfere. If Lin Ming really made a false accusation, then the Thunder Sovereign could deal with the matter as he wished. But if Lin Ming was able to produce evidence, and there were also those who would deny it, then this old woman would personally act and kill everyone who did!
When Lei Jingtian heard these words that were filled with killing intent, his heart paused for a moment. But he still sneered and said, "The Great Lord must remember the words he has said!"
Since this matter had reached this stage, Mu Qianyu could no longer sit still. He nervously looked at Lin Ming, his heart in turmoil.
The eyes of the entire audience locked onto Lin Ming. Lin Ming took a deep breath, and then asked in a completely calm voice, "There are some questions I would like to ask the Thunder Sovereign …"
"Continue! I'd like to know exactly what you're asking for! ”Lei Jingtian replied in a controversial tone.
Lei Jingtian frowned, "No! The cultivation method that Lei Mubai used was the method he found in some ancient runes. Since ancient times, true geniuses have always had a great destiny for them. Gaining a lucky chance from some ancient ruins was a very normal thing! "
"Then as the Thunder Sovereign had said. "Lin Ming nodded. "Second question. Was the Thunder Soul Lei Mubai descended from the Thundercrest Sect? ”
Lei Jingtian's voice spoke. This brat, is he trying to set a verbal trap for him to jump over?
After thinking about it and not finding out where there was this trap, Lei Jingtian said, “No, Mubai found his Thunder Soul after venturing into an extremely dangerous and unpleasant land. This is not from my Thundercrest Sect. ”
Lei Jingtian had decided that she would distance herself from everything as much as she could, in order to prevent Lin Ming from forcing her to give a vague explanation in the future, forcing him to lie more.
Lin Ming nodded. "Third question. Who were Lei Mubai's parents? And had Lei Mubai ever mentioned his own background to the Thunder Sovereign before? ”
Lei Jingtian said, “Mubai was orphaned as a child. His parents were human, and they died in the chaos of war! "
The old men are mortal, and they also die. Lei Jingtian believed that no matter how great Lin Ming was, he had no means to prove otherwise.
Lin Ming said, "My question is over. Senior Mu, may I ask you to provide a charm that can hinder the transmission of true essence sounds? "
Mu Yuhuang's eyes lifted. He had no idea what Lin Ming was planning, but he was still looking for the Divine Phoenix Island array master and had a charm set for his specifications that could hinder the transmission of true essence sounds.
After Lin Ming confirmed that a charm had been laid, he swiped his spatial ring and took out a red crystal that was the size of a drop of water. "Do you know what this is?"
"mm?"
Lei Jingtian's eyes narrowed. From this little thing, he could feel an ancient and endless energy radiating. Obviously, it's some kind of incredible thing.
Whatisthis?
Lei Jingtian did not know, but Shi Zhongkun's expression changed. He had seen something similar recorded in ancient texts before. This boy really has such a treasure!
Mu Fengxian stood up, his eyes bright. He looked at Lin Ming with a deep expression before saying, "After the fall of the Great Emperor of the Netherworld, the Demon Heart he developed shattered into three fragments. Rumor has it that each of these three fragments was obtained by a separate Revolving Core powerhouse, and was used to produce many Destroyed Demonic Heart Crystals. After one dissolved and absorbed this blood essence, he was able to increase the chances of a Xiantian master to reach the Revolving Core realm. This old lady has seen him before. If I am not mistaken, then this red crystal that Lin Ming possesses is a Crushed Demon Heart Crystal.
The Netherworld Great Emperor had fallen over 1000 years ago. The Revolving Core old monster present was only a few hundred years old, and there were very few people who knew exactly what a Shattered Demon Heart Crystal was. Most people only see such objects recorded in ancient texts. As for someone who had seen one with his own eyes, it was only Mu Fengxian. At that moment, he had already broken through to the Revolving Core realm, and the Crushed Demon Heart Crystal was no longer useful to him.
Lei Jingtian's eyebrows curved upwards. 'A treasure that could increase the chances for a Xiantian master to break through to the Revolving Core realm? This kid actually has a very precious thing? '
Lin Ming said, “That's exactly this. ”
Lin Ming had obtained a total of ten Shattered Demon Heart Crystals from Zhou Xinyu. When he was chased by Huang Zixuan, he was forced to take half of one. Now, he had a total of nine and a half crystals remaining.
Half of the Shattered Demon Heart Crystal was able to help Lin Ming's full body Tempering Marrow reach 5%. After which, he went into seclusion on Dark Moon Island for three months. Lin Ming had swallowed many Heaven Opening Pills that had been massively upgraded by medicinal inscription symbols, and had managed to increase his Tempering Anger to 20%. As for the Crushed Demon Heart Crystal, Lin Ming was worried that he had too many pill poison in his body, so he did not take any more. Now within his spatial ring, there was a total of nine and a half Shattered Demon Heart Crystals.
Now that he had to take one, even Lin Ming felt his heart ache.
"Son, what are you planning to do?" Lei Jingtian felt a faint premonition in his heart.
Lin Ming was saddened, "Thunder Sovereign might not know, but the Shattered Demon Heart Crystal contained the remains of a Netherworld Great Emperor. After ingesting it, one can feel the energy of the Netherworld Great Emperor .. when the time comes, you will naturally know what I mean. ”
As Lin Ming spoke, he glanced at the crowd and said, "I'd like to ask some seniors to go on stage and confirm the matter!"
Lei Jingtian's expression changed. It contains the will of the Netherworld Great Emperor? What does that mean? If he swallowed the Shattered Demon Heart Crystal, would he be able to sense something?
He unintentionally glanced at Lei Mubai. He saw that at this moment, Lei Mubai was lying on the ground, his face was pale, his lips were pale, and his eyes were glazed over, as if the embers of his life were burning away. Lei Jingtian's heart sank; lei Mubai was done!
“Older Jin, may I ask you to step up? And also Elder Bai. '' Lin Ming separately asked the Golden Bell Mountain Elder and the Arctic Ice Palace Elder. According to him, these two forces would be relatively fair. The Golden Bell Mountain had always been very simple. As for the Arctic Ice Palace, they were rather cold and proud individuals – they should have no reason to cover Lei Mubai. In fact, other than Lei Jingtian, there shouldn't be anyone there who would risk the wrath of the world and sell themselves to the South Sea Demon Region.
Lei Jingtian's heart became extremely cold. He now knew why Lin Ming had asked for a spell to be placed that inhibited the transmission of true essence sounds. And that was to prevent him from discussing something with these two Great Elders!
What about the previous three questions? Why did he ask them? Lei Jingtian was puzzled, pondering this. The feeling of foreboding in his heart became increasingly stronger. He thought that if something happened, he would find a way to go by himself. As for Lei Mubai, he could die here alone.
