Chapter 1289: Openly Displayed

ntercepted are too high."The ripples responded directly."The cost is a bit high."The road whispered."Road, you really think you'll make money this time It'd be great if we didn't lose any."Ripple smil...Ripple wasn't speaking up for Lian Xi Ye, she was just saying that everyone has their own circles of friends and family. Even though Lian Xi Ye had become a demon cultivator, at his core he was still more like a human cultivator. So when he made this decision, Ripple wasn't surprised at all.

"Elder Bai, this matter the wolf clan will deal with after this secret realm closes."

The wolf king bowed.

"My opinion is that it's appropriate to communicate with Yuntengzong properly and bring this matter to light. Let's see if they are behind it secretly."

Liàn yī gently remarked.

The Wolf King gazed deeply into Ripple's eyes before saying:

"I will report this matter back to the elders of my tribe, and they will make a decision."

He finished speaking and bowed before leaving.

"Master, if the wolf clan were to bring this matter out into the open, Yuntian Sect would definitely not admit it. In that case, they would have to give up Lianxiye, which means Lianxiye would be caught in a difficult position on both sides."

Dodo said with a hint of schadenfreude.

"Yes, I want him to taste the feeling of betrayal and being ostracized by both clans. Not only did he deceive the original owner's feelings and resources, using her as a stepping stone, thoroughly exploiting her before discarding her, but he also used her to harm the demon clan."

Even if I reached his side in a different way this life, and he still remained stubbornly the same, even wanting to climb to the position of Guest Elder, it shows that he has no bottom line as a person, only doing what benefits him. Naturally, I must completely erase his halo and leave him with no chance of redemption.

Ripple sneered in reply.

Dodo shivered her leaves, suddenly feeling a chill. She realized that in her lifetime, it was best not to disobey her owner, otherwise she would certainly die a terrible death.

Ripple didn't know what Doudou was thinking. The next day, accompanied by Lang Kui, she went to see the leader of Yun Tian Zong.

The leader of Yuntengzong this time was a sword cultivator named Yun Wuyan who had reached the late stage of Refining Void. He was considered one of the top fighters in Yuntengzong. This time, on the one hand, he was to protect the disciples who entered the secret realm, and on the other hand, after any accidents occurred, he could retreat safely from the demon clan's territory. That's why he came out to lead the team.

Yunwu Yan, upon seeing the visitors from the demon clan, didn't bother with pleasantries and went straight to the point:

"Elder Bai, I wonder what brings you here"

"Cloud Leader, this visit is indeed to inform you of a matter."

Ripples narrowed her fox eyes, her tone calm. Instead of launching into an accusation right away, she turned to the Wolf Alpha and asked him to explain in detail how Eventide had become a member of the wolf clan.

The Wolf Chief stepped forward, recounting everything from Lian Xiye's initial trespass into the demon realm, all the way to his second voluntary return and subsequent path as a demon cultivator. He also mentioned his deliberate creation of chaos and dissemination of messages before the secret realm opened.

Listening to Yun Wu Yan slowly frowned. After the Wolf Chief finished speaking, he asked:

"Elder Bai, you are implying that Lang Ye acted on behalf of our Yuntian Sect. Do you have any evidence"

The question was direct, but Lian Yi didn't get angry. She just smiled and said:

We have evidence that he delivered the message via jade slip, and he has admitted to it himself. Leader Yun, will you give the demon clan an explanation

Yun Wu spoke, his brow furrowed tightly. He hated encountering such situations the most, because they involved too many parties. If handled poorly, it could easily spark a war between the two clans.

Moreover, it's happening at this sensitive time and place. If the demon clan insists on causing trouble, not only will Yuntian Sect suffer, but the other three Sects and the Alliance of Scattered Cultivators will be implicated as well. By then, it won't be something that can be solved with just a few words.

Yun Wu's brain whirled, spinning rapidly before he finally spoke.

"I heard about this from Elder Bai. I need to investigate the specifics. As for how the sect handled Lian Xiye, I'll have to ask the Law Enforcement Hall. However, things got pretty chaotic back then, and I did hear about it."

However, the reason Lian Ye was expelled from the sect that night wasn't because he betrayed them. It was because he framed a visiting elder of the sect, deemed to have flawed character and violated sect rules, leading to his cultivation being revoked and him being cast out.

Because he had completely switched from cultivating as a human to cultivating as a demon, this was big news at the time. He hadn't gone into seclusion then, so he knew some things. As for whether his sect sent him back to the Demon Clan in the dead of night to continue lurking and gather useful information, he wasn't sure. However, he certainly couldn't admit it now.

Ripple just smiled and said:

"This secret realm will be open for one month. I hope that when the secret realm closes, Yun Leader can give us a reply."

"I understand."

Yún Wǔ said goodbye to his guest over tea, and Lian Ri departed with Lang Quí.

After the ripples subsided and the two people left, Yun Wu took out a transmission jade slip, sending back Lian Xiye's message. How to proceed would have to wait for the sect's reply.

The wolf queen walked and said to Ripples:

Elder Bai, Lian Xiye is already a waste, and we haven't suffered any losses. What benefit would it be for us to pick a fight with cultivators at this time

Actually, he felt there was no need to make a big deal out of it. He could have just disposed of the person and that would be the end of it. However, the elders of the clan still decided to accept Elder Bai's suggestion and bring the matter to the table.

"Wolf Queen, your wolf clan only captured this one person. Can you guarantee that there aren't others within your clan like Lian Xi Ye Or perhaps someone who was unwittingly deceived and betrayed their fellow demonkind"

"This ... cannot!"

The Wolf King thought for a moment before replying.

“Conflicts between humans and demons happen from time to time, some openly, some secretly. What I'm doing is simply bringing the secret games into the open, telling the human race that we demons are not fools. We can protect what belongs to us, and whoever stretches out their claws will have them chopped off.”

"I understand."

The wolf chieftain wiped the nonexistent sweat from his forehead, always feeling that this fox clan girl seemed smiling on the surface, but her killing intent was heavier than his own wolf clan.

There's no need to hide this. Spread the word about Lian Yexi's existence and everything he's done, putting pressure on Yuntian Sect from the other three Sects and the scattered cultivators alliance.

The ripple fox's eyes turned, and it addressed the wolf leader.

"Okay, I'll go take care of it."

The next day, this news spread throughout the Three Sects, the Scattered Cultivation Alliance, and the demon clan. This also caused the demons to look at the cultivators with a strange gaze, and the cultivators raised their guard. Thinking about the disciples who would leave the secret realm in a month, they suddenly felt like they were walking into a trap.

This newly discovered secret realm is located in the inner region of the demon clan's territory. If it were on the outer rim, they wouldn't actually need to inform the demon clan and could allow their disciples to enter dispersedly.

But the wonder lies in the fact that the secret realm opens in Zhongwei, an area where mostly level five and six powerful demons roam. If one were to forcefully break in, it would be dangerous for cultivators. They might enter the secret realm but wouldn't have a way out of the demon territory alive with their treasures. That's why they had to negotiate with King Gui Di, the demon king.

Now another thing like this has happened, making the atmosphere between the two parties a little tense. Ripple, however, was very relaxed and kept Bear Kun, who came to find her with flames, to play chess with her.

"Elder Bai, what time is it You still have the mood to play chess. We've all been bullied by Xiu!"

Xiong Kun crushed a black chess piece into powder with his bare hands.n, he's never suffered such a loss from childhood to adulthood.The ripple landed a blow to the opponent's jaw, dragging them into a dead corner. He patted their face with malice and said:"Hey Brother...
