Chapter 1621 - Truth Uncovered
Bang!
Demon Suppression Elder Deng Ao shattered the armrest of his throne and glared at the Heavenly Punishment Elder furiously.
“Heavenly Punishment, if you continue slandering me, I’ll deal with you myself, even if the sect leader personally punishes me afterward!” Deng Ao said icily.
Being labeled a spy again and again was no minor accusation. It struck directly at his foundation, his reputation, and his life.
The Heavenly Punishment Elder showed no signs of fear. He sneered coldly, “Who’s afraid of whom? Perfect. I’ve just broken through recently and was wondering who I should test my strength on. You’ll do nicely, old man.”
“Enough!” shouted the Featherlight Sect’s sect leader coldly with a frown. His brows were tightly knit, his irritation obvious.
Both the Heavenly Punishment Elder and the Demon Suppression Elder were extremely influential figures of the sect whose strength rivaled his own. If the two of them really broke out into a fight, perhaps the entire Featherlight Sect would be destroyed.
The sect leader asked, “Chen Fan, do you have any evidence to support your claim?”
A soul search on Deng Ao was impossible. No one would allow it.
Likewise, the Heavenly Punishment Elder would never permit Chen Fan’s soul to be searched either. He would stake everything to protect his disciple.
Truthfully, the sect leader had already concluded in his heart. Chen Fan’s words aligned far too well to be a coincidence.
However, as the sect leader of the Featherlight Sect, he couldn’t make decisions arbitrarily based on speculation. If he ruled without evidence, the Demon Suppression lineage would never accept it. If he punished Chen Fan directly, the Heavenly Punishment lineage would revolt.
