Heaven Slaying Blade

Chapter 975: Harsh Criticism


Feeling the unusual stares around him, Luo Wucheng felt as if his face had been harshly slapped twice, burning painfully.

At that moment, the calm voice of the beggar in the image continued, "I thank Miss Die and Demon Lord for still remembering me, this crippled old beggar." He said, bowing in the direction of Die and the Demon Lord, then bowing to the group standing behind Die, he added, "Thank you to the Elixir Sect for providing the Poison Pills over the years, allowing Sheng... to hang on to life until now."

All around, there was now a dead silence; everyone was visibly shocked by this scene. Clearly, this was a secret of the Immortal Realm!

Many unrelated to the Luo family suddenly lit up with curiosity, flames of interest burning in their eyes.

Luo Wucheng, with an icy look in his eyes, turned towards Sheng Yonghui in the Water Mirror Technique and sneered, "Finding just any beggar to brazenly impersonate someone who is already dead, your scheming is indeed clever!"

Sheng Yonghui in the Water Mirror Technique smirked slightly. "Old man, you don't need to spout all that nonsense, nor do you need to defend yourself so stiffly. Everyone isn't foolish; they have eyes to see, and hearts to feel, and they will judge for themselves!"

Speaking, Sheng Yonghui's voice grew stern, "Years ago, when I married Lu Chenyu, known as the number one beauty of the Immortal Realm, you, Luo Wucheng, upon attending my wedding, lusted after my wife and even hinted to my father, desiring to... have her favor before me."

"You slander me!" Luo Wucheng retorted angrily.

The group of Luo family members behind him also started to curse and shout.

"Utter nonsense!"

"Pure fabrication!"

However, Sheng Yonghui in the Water Mirror Technique, unfazed by the comments, still appeared unkempt, but at that moment, he had the demeanor of a grandmaster. His composure was frightening!

He paid no mind to what Luo Wucheng and the Luo family members were saying, and continued calmly, "My father was shocked by your shamelessness and immediately rejected you sternly. Thus, you, old fellow, became frustrated and agitated, but due to your status, you didn't say anything at the time. I must admire the depths of your shamelessness, for if shamelessness were a realm, you would have reached the Supreme Realm! Even in that situation, you still managed to smile and finish the banquet, then took my hand and told us to live well... At the time, I was unaware of the incident and thought you were being kind. Who would have thought you were nothing but a beast in human clothing!"

Luo Wucheng's face was no longer just ashen, but darkly purple; if this had not been the Water Mirror Technique, but Sheng Yonghui himself, he would have slapped him to death right then!

This Water Mirror Technique... was executed by Fu Xiaodie; just kill her... Luo Wucheng thought, unconsciously glancing in Fu Xiaodie's direction.

The Demon Lord calmly said, "Luo Wucheng, if you dare touch a single hair on my wife, I will exterminate your entire Luo family!"

"You dare threaten me…" Luo Wucheng roared, trying to divert the topic with this opportunity.

But unexpectedly, from behind the Demon Lord, within the Elixir Sect, a calm voice suddenly arose, "Why must the head of the Luo family be so agitated? What is true cannot be falsified, and what is false cannot be proven true; why not let the man finish speaking? If you are innocent, no one can tarnish your reputation, right?"

The sound of this voice was not loud, very serene, but it distinctly reached every person present.

Luo Wucheng's expression changed immediately, and he thought of someone. He promptly shut his mouth.

In the Water Mirror Technique, Sheng Yonghui's face still showed no emotion. Seeing that everyone had stopped talking, he continued, "Half a year passed, and everything remained calm; that half year... was also the happiest time of my life."

Everyone could see the tears shimmering in Sheng Yonghui's bright eyes in the Water Mirror Technique.

"Half a year later, the Sheng family discovered an immortal crystal vein of enormous reserves. Although resources in the Immortal Realm are plentiful, even by today's standards, finding such a large vein of immortal crystals has become quite rare. So, at that time, we all thought that the Sheng family's chance to rise had finally come! According to the relationship between a vassal family and the main family, we would turn over seventy percent of the vein we found but could keep the remaining thirty percent for ourselves! And that thirty percent was enough for our Sheng family to develop." Sheng Yonghui's face finally showed a hint of hatred as he looked towards Luo Wucheng and said coldly, "Who could have imagined that after we reported this discovery to the Luo family, what awaited us … wasn't commendation but death! You old beast! Our entire Sheng family, tens of thousands of people … were slaughtered overnight! From the elderly down to the speechless infants, you spared no one! The slaughter was thorough! Old beast … how could you bear it?"

All around, more and more people had gathered, yet a deadly silence prevailed. No one spoke.

Although massacres of entire families are infrequent in the Cultivation Realm, they still occasionally happen. However, it is rare for them to involve women and children below the age of eight. Even though leaving the roots of the grass may be a great taboo, completely eradicating those roots ... is also a great taboo!

After all, everyone has family, everyone has elders and children. Today, you might eradicate someone's entire family. Who knows, perhaps one day, someone might do the same to you!

Typically, even in the case of family annihilation, some leeway for survival is usually given.

For the Luo family to wipe out their own vassal family, numbering tens of thousands of people … that was indeed rare.

Moreover, it wasn't over a deep-seated grudge but merely their own vassal family.

Now, many people looked at the Luo family with completely changed expressions!

Among them, many had come here not just to watch but to support the Luo family!

To join the Luo family in exterminating demons and cutting down Fu Xiaodie, the demoness, and to eliminate the Demon Lord. But now … even if they still wanted to deal with the Demon Lord and Fu Xiaodie, they no longer wanted to stand with the Luo family!

Who would dare to get too close to a power that could annihilate its own vassal family?

For a time, even many within the Luo family felt an unbearable shame.

In the Water Mirror Technique, Sheng Yonghui's vehement condemnation continued: "You killed everyone but bizarrely spared my wife, Lu Chenyu, and me, and brought me before you, old beast. Do you remember what you did to me?"

Many people looked towards Luo Wucheng, who, with a darkened face and a cold laugh, said, "Slander all you want!"

"Ha, slander, slander your grandmother's leg!" In the Water Mirror Technique, Sheng Yonghui erupted in rage, pointing at Luo Wucheng and cursing, "In front of me … you raped my wife and used medication to seal all her powers, making it impossible for her to die! You directly destroyed my elixir field, extinguished my second primordial spirit, had people break my limbs, and then poisoned me, turning me into a mute! You chopped off all ten of my fingers … and finally threw me onto the main street of a city far from here. Unable to speak or write, Luo Wucheng … you old beast probably never dreamed I, Sheng Yonghui, could survive to this day, did you? You thought I had long been dead, thought that the entire Sheng family … had no one left to reveal your ugly face?"

Luo Wucheng looked coldly at Sheng Yonghui in the Water Mirror Technique: "All nonsense!"
