The Strongest Urban Son-in-law

Chapter 1893: Chapter 1921: Uncovering the Truth

But Ye Feng hadn’t had the chance to answer before Ye Lan stood up and said, ”Sect Master, this scoundrel Feng Ye caused the death of four fellow disciples during the mission. Not only that, he also severed Senior Sister Su Yourong’s arm! I initially planned to seize him today and take him to the Law Enforcement Hall for questioning, but he resisted and severely injured me and Senior Brother Huang Tong.

Even when Elder Qing Lei appeared, he showed no remorse. He even openly opposed Elder Qing Lei using the power of the Sword Pool!”

”Oh? Is that true?” The Sect Master of the White Feather Sword Sect asked Ye Feng after hearing Ye Lan’s words.

Ye Feng replied blandly, ”Is that the case? Shouldn’t you ask Su Yourong? Everything I did, isn’t it just what Su Yourong said?” Ye Lan yelled angrily, ”Ridiculous! Could Junior Sister Su Yourong deceive me?”

”Silence! Did I give you permission to speak?” The White Feather Sword Sect’s Sect Master suddenly furrowed his brows, glaring at Ye Lan and loudly rebuking him.

Ye Lan trembled in fear and shut his mouth, no longer daring to speak. He simply looked at Su Yourong.

Su Yourong, intimidated by the Sect Master of the White Feather Sword Sect, stuttered, ”That’s right! Feng Ye, when we were in the Soul Devouring Clan’s ruins, led us into a medicine field without warning us of the danger. We were harmed by the puppet scarecrows in the medicine field, and he even watched us perish without assistance, leading to my losing an arm!”

”This isn’t right!” Ye Lan was stunned and asked Su Yourong, ”Didn’t you say that Feng Ye harmed fellow disciples? How has it now turned into watching us perish without assistance?” Ye Lan finally realized that he might have been deceived by Su Yourong.

At this moment, Elder Qingyu bore an angry expression as he looked at Su Yourong. Su Yourong, being Elder Qingyu’s disciple, was raised under his watch, and Elder Qingyu already discerned that Su Yourong was lying.

”Su Yourong, what exactly happened? Tell me truthfully!” Elder Qingyu loudly rebuked in anger.

Su Yourong knew that her master would see through her, which is why she didn’t approach Qingyu but instead sought out Ye Lan.

Since Ye Lan was pursuing Su Yourong, harboring a fondness for her, he easily believed Su Yourong’s words.

Su Yourong, filled with fear and uncertainty, finally said, ”Master, everything I said is true. It was all because of Feng Ye; he watched us perish without assisting us. He clearly had the ability to save us, but he did nothing. Otherwise, those four fellow disciples wouldn’t have died, and my arm wouldn’t have been severed by the puppet scarecrows in the medicine field!”

”Rubbish!” At that moment, Long Yu and Jiuyi couldn’t hold back any longer and shouted angrily.

Especially Jiuyi, since he was the biggest victim. Had Ye Feng acted even a bit later, Jiuyi would have died.

Su Yourong nearly caused Jiuyi’s death; Jiuyi furiously cursed, ”Su Yourong, I used to respect you and call you Senior Sister. But now, I want to say that you don’t deserve it! Arrogant, self-important, deceptive! Now, you’re turning things around, falsely accusing Feng Ye, I’ve never seen such a shameless woman like you.

Your character is inversely proportional to your looks. Not a single word you say is true! Feng Ye repeatedly warned us that the medicine field was dangerous, but you refused to believe it, insisting on entering it. Not only did you insist on going, but you dragged us along to die. If it weren’t for Feng Ye’s intervention, I would be dead!

You even colluded with Lord Ba Dao of the Fierce Blade Sect to oppress us. If it weren’t for Feng Ye, we wouldn’t have been able to complete this mission. Yet here you are, blatantly lying and slandering Feng Ye; shame on you!”

”What!” Everyone was stunned to hear Jiuyi’s words. If Jiuyi’s account was true, then Su Yourong’s actions were utterly reprehensible; no one expected her to behave in such a manner.

Su Yourong, extremely tense, shouted in rage, ”You’re talking rubbish! You’re making malicious accusations against me; I didn’t do it!”

”Bang!” At that moment, Elder Qingyu was so furious he raised his hand and slapped Su Yourong hard across her face.

Imprints of fingers immediately appeared on Su Yourong’s face, ”Shut your mouth, I didn’t permit you to speak!”

Elder Qingyu understood his disciple too well, and judging by the situation, Jiuyi’s account was most likely true.

At that moment, the Sect Master of the White Feather Sword Sect looked at Long Yu and Jiuyi, ”Tell me what happened.”

Since both Jiuyi and Long Yu were third parties, asking them was the fairest option. Subsequently, Jiuyi and Long Yu recounted everything that happened along the way, detailing how Su Yourong colluded with members of the Fierce Blade Sect, how she ignored Ye Feng’s warnings, and led everyone into the medicine field.

At this point, the Sect Master of the White Feather Sword Sect’s face had turned extremely dark and troubled. The Green Lotus Sword Sect remained a top-tier force in the Shenwu Continent not only due to its abundant resources and its prime location for cultivation but also because of another reason—the unity of its disciples. Disciples like Su Yourong, who falsely accused fellow sect members and turned situations around, hadn’t appeared in ages, which made the Sect Master of the White Feather Sword Sect exceedingly angry.

The Sect Master of the White Feather Sword Sect asked Su Yourong, ”Is what Long Yu and Jiuyi said true?”

The terrifying gaze made Su Yourong feel as if she was being pierced by an ancient frosty sword, shattered into countless pieces. Su Yourong even felt she would die if she lied.

Su Yourong trembled violently, nodded fearfully, then fell to her knees and burst into tears.

”Wuuu~~ I’m sorry, Sect Master, I’m sorry, Master, I shouldn’t have deceived you. What Long Yu said is true, I was just jealous of Feng Ye, thinking he wasn’t worthy of being our Green Lotus Sword Sect’s top prodigy, which led me to act like this. I realize my errors, please forgive me...” Su Yourong burst into loud sobs, continuously pleading for mercy.

The Sect Master of the White Feather Sword Sect, with a cold expression, replied, ”Hmm, Su Yourong, you’ve been arrogant and collaborated with outsiders to oppress your sect peers, and even falsely accused Feng Ye—typically a crime punishable by death. But for the sake of your master, I will imprison you for a thousand years, allowing you the time for reflection, do you accept this?” Su Yourong nodded while crying, ”I accept...”

At this moment, Elder Qingyu also bore an angry expression, showing no inclination to plead for leniency...
