Chapter 214 Uncle Leaves Ji Family
Shangguan Su's defense was well-reasoned and many people present had begun to waver.
After all, the Shangguan family has stood on the Tianyan Continent for tens of thousands of years, and its reputation as the number one formation family on the Tianyan Continent has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
It is really unbelievable that someone suddenly said something wrong about the Shangguan family, especially such a shocking scandal.
However, once the seeds of doubt are planted, they will take root and sprout sooner or later, especially when it comes to one's own safety.
If the Shangguan family is really using evil magic, then wouldn't all of them be chosen?
Shangguan Su's words could fool the disciples below him, but it was not so easy to fool the elders of each family. Ji Changyuan and other elders did not intend to listen to his one-sided words.
Ji Changyuan turned and looked to the other side, his gaze first passing over Su Linghan before looking at Lin Xia. He had heard clearly before that when the Shangguan family's flying boat just arrived at Feixian Island, this female cultivator called Su Linghan uncle.
If, as Shangguan Su said, there is something wrong with the identity of this female cultivator, then Su Linghan will also be implicated, and then their Ji family will probably be implicated as well.
In the Ji family, only Ji Wanxi knew that Su Linghan came from Qianyuan Continent. Although she didn't know the details, she at least knew that he was not a native cultivator of Tianyan Continent.
Although Su Linghan has been in the Ji family for a long time, he has only become an elder of the Ji family in recent years, which was when Su Linghan advanced to the late Nascent Soul stage.
Therefore, Ji Changyuan actually didn’t know Su Linghan very well.
Now, Ji Changyuan not only wants to find out the truth about whether the Shangguan family uses evil magic, but also wants to know whether Su Linghan is a pawn planted in the Ji family.
"You say!" Ji Changyuan stared at Lin Xia with his wise eyes, and his voice was full of unquestionable meaning.
Lin Xia raised her head and looked directly at Shangguan Yanxi, who was filled with murderous intent. "Shangguan Yanxi, whether you admit it or not, you are a vested interest. You have my mother's spiritual roots in your body. I will definitely kill you."
After saying that, Lin Xia no longer cared about Shangguan Yanxi's reaction and turned to Shangguan Su. "Elder Su is really good at confusing people. What do you mean by deliberately entering the Shangguan family? It sounds like the Shangguan family must have investigated me. If they have investigated me, then Elder Su, you can't be unaware of how I entered the Shangguan family, right?"
"It was just because I discussed my insights on formations with other cultivators that I was noticed by the Seventeenth Elder. How come you say it was all deliberate? How ridiculous!"
The hatred of killing one's mother is irreconcilable. If the Shangguan family had not dug out Su Lingxue's spiritual roots, Su Lingxue would not have died.
Lin Xia had no obligation to explain this matter clearly to everyone present, not to mention that there were many things that could not be said, such as where he came from.
However, even so, Lin Xia did not want to let the Shangguan family have an easy time, so she took this opportunity to expose the Shangguan family's hypocrisy.
Before, Shangguan Su's sudden appearance interrupted Lin Xia from telling Su Linghan the whole story. Now, seeing Ji Changyuan stand up to uphold justice, Lin Xia naturally no longer concealed it.
At this time, Su Linghan's gaze was fixed on Lin Xia. He looked like a drowning person who was in urgent need of rescue. His eyes contained emotions that Lin Xia could not understand.
Lin Xia could feel that her uncle was trying hard to suppress his emotions.
Even though Lin Xia said harsh words to Shangguan Yanxi, Su Linghan held back because he just wanted to get a positive answer from Lin Xia.
Things have come to this point. Although Lin Xia is reluctant, she still has to tell the truth.
Lin Xia's gaze met Su Linghan's. Her voice trembled, but her tone and eyes were resolute. "Uncle, Shangguan Yanxi was born without spiritual roots. It was her mother, Zhang Lihua, a former disciple of the Soul Devouring Sect, who went to the Flame Secret Realm to dig out spiritual roots for her. I have already verified this, and there is no mistake."
Even though Lin Xia had only suspected it before, Shangguan Yanxi killed Lin Xia just because of the little hint that Lin Xia had given him. This also explained the problem and made Lin Xia more certain of his speculation.
The spiritual root in Shangguan Yanxi's body must be his mother Su Lingxue's without a doubt.
"The matter was done so secretly. Shangguan Xiong, the head of the Shangguan family, must be the driving force behind it, and the elders of the Shangguan family must be accomplices." After a pause, Lin Xia added another sentence.
"You're talking nonsense!" Shangguan Su ignored Ji Changyuan's suppression, took two steps forward, and interrupted what Lin Xia was about to say next.
"Snap!" This sound was heard as Su Linghan crushed the ID card hanging around his waist, the ID card representing his identity as an elder of the Ji family.
Su Linghan's action was very unexpected. Not only Lin Xia, but everyone present, including Ji Changyuan, did not expect it.
However, everyone present was a smart person. Seeing Su Linghan like this, they immediately understood that he was going to leave the Ji family in public.
Does this mean they don't want to implicate the Ji family? So are they preparing to confront the Shangguan family?
Yes, if what the female cultivator in front of them said was true, then the two of them would have irreconcilable hatred with the Shangguan family.
Seeing Su Linghan so decisive and Lin Xia so sure, everyone present understood that what Lin Xia said was most likely true, and the Shangguan family actually used evil magic.
Lin Xia's senses were more direct than anyone else's, and she knew her uncle's character and his feelings towards his sister better. Seeing this, Lin Xia knew that her uncle was planning to fight to the death with the Shangguan family.
Sure enough, Lin Xia's prediction was correct. Su Linghan actually took out the natal spirit sword that was nurtured in his sea of consciousness, and his aura suddenly became fierce.
Seeing this, Ji Changyuan and several other elders had to retreat. The uncle and nephew obviously didn't want to say more, and it was not convenient for them to directly confront the Shangguan family now.
Moreover, it would be difficult for them to hastily accuse the Shangguan family based on Lin Xia's words alone.
At this time, the battle in the air was also very fierce. After all, the Shangguan family had the upper hand because of their large numbers. Yun Weitian was already retreating step by step.
However, Yun Weitian didn't seem to care. He came here today to expose the true face of the Shangguan family, and there would be plenty of opportunities for revenge in the future.
Seeing that Yun Weitian was about to escape, Shangguan Qian and others, whose spiritual sense had already detected what was happening below, did not chase him, but flew quickly towards the direction where Lin Xia and Su Linghan were.
Shangguan Qian, who was in the lead, just had time to block the sword that Su Linghan swung towards Shangguan Yanxi.
Shangguan Qian is a cultivator in the early stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, and Su Linghan is a cultivator in the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. They are only one small level apart, but the gap between the Nascent Soul Realm and the Spirit Transformation Realm is as vast as heaven and earth.
Su Linghan's sword didn't hurt Shangguan Yanxi at all.
