When a person is in a high-ranking position, their words carry the law.

Chapter 173 The truth emerges
Qiao Yuexuan did not answer.

She was still in shock.

It turned out that the illusion had indeed deceived her, and even deceived Yun Shu.

If Yun Shu hadn't noticed something was wrong and suddenly intervened, they might still be completely unaware until Bai Ze entered the villa's lobby.

Even if we don't know the principle behind Bai Ze's illusion, the fact that he fooled two people with only the strength of a three-star martial artist is enough to make us extremely wary.

"not bad."

Yun Shu gave a brief two-word answer, still looking at Bai Ze with an expressionless face, "But this is not the way of a guest. It seems that Junior Brother Bai Ze wants to be an unwelcome guest."

The more Yun Shu discovered Bai Ze's strength, the deeper her fear became.

His inner energy was stirring, and he was already preparing to make a move.

"Senior, you've wronged me."

Bai Ze showed no sign of panic, calmly saying, "I came with good intentions and sincerely came to mourn Senior Yun Yan and express my remorse. In order to avoid disturbing the deceased, I also proposed a method of exchanging blows. Anyone who wants to stop me, as long as they can defeat me in terms of palm strength, I will simply turn around and leave."

As he spoke, a slight fluctuation in his energy flow was observed.

Not far away, Wei Changqing's figure appeared quietly and transmitted his voice to Yun Shu.

Clearly, during this brief exchange, Wei Changqing had learned of what was happening outside and was reporting it to Yun Shu.

Bai Ze was absolutely right; he did indeed engage in a battle of wits with everyone, relying solely on his palm strikes.

Besides, if he were to make a big fuss, the villa would have already been alerted.

The fact that Bai Ze was able to get here under these circumstances can only mean that no one outside could stop him, including Xiao Cangshu from Yanjing Martial Arts University.

After learning about the situation, Yun Shu seemed to improve, and his face was no longer expressionless.

"I misunderstood my junior."

Yun Shu showed a hint of apology, "However, my younger brother has always harbored resentment towards Junior Brother Bai Ze. In order to prevent my younger brother from having any grudges against me in the afterlife, I have no choice but to stop Junior Brother Bai Ze's actions."

As he spoke, he raised his right palm. "Just as Junior Brother Bai Ze said before, if I can make you back down in a palm strike, then you may leave. Otherwise, if I back down, I will no longer stop you."

Yun Shu certainly wouldn't let go of this legitimate opportunity.

Although he spoke as if he had no other choice, Bai Ze knew perfectly well that the other party would not go easy on him in the slightest.

Furthermore, even if Bai Ze were severely injured under these circumstances, Bai Ze's side would have no grounds for complaint.

Ultimately, it was Bai Ze who proposed the idea of ​​a duel, and Bai Ze was undoubtedly here today with the intention of dancing on a grave.

He was the unfriendly visitor.

After the illusion was broken, Bai Ze still had to confront Yun Shu, and he couldn't refuse.

"Sigh, in the end, I still can't avoid facing off against Senior Yun Shu."

Bai Ze looked helpless. "I thought I could fool my senior and get inside, but I didn't expect him to be so perceptive and see through my trick, revealing the truth."

As soon as those words were spoken, a change that no one else could perceive began to quietly emerge.

The truth has come to light!
When those last four words were uttered, the law came into effect.

In that instant, a change occurred in Yun Yan, who lay quietly in the ebony coffin in the hall of the villa at the memorial service.

The corpse had a peaceful expression and no injuries, as if it had simply fallen asleep.

But now, the corpse's face gradually became grotesque, and slowly withered.

It's as if the flesh beneath the skin is disappearing, causing facial expressions to become distorted, ugly, and ferocious.

At the same time, bloody welts appeared on the corpse's hands, revealing flesh that looked like rotten meat inside, and a faint aura emanated from them. "Corpse aura?"

A middle-aged man in a black uniform suddenly focused his gaze on the coffin. "No, it's death energy, and... demonic blood!"

The middle-aged man suddenly darted towards the coffin.

"Stop!"

The beautiful woman in front of the coffin coldly raised her head, waved her hand lightly, and the coffin lid closed automatically, covering the corpse inside. At the same time, a powerful aura formed a wall of energy, blocking the dark black qi.

A tremendous force suddenly arose, pressing forward relentlessly.

"There is the blood of the Great Freedom Demon inside the coffin; it must be thoroughly investigated."

The middle-aged man was unable to break through the barrier of energy and stopped in his tracks. He was also subjected to a powerful and overwhelming force, and his body sank. However, he still insisted on speaking.

These words caused a huge stir, drawing the attention of everyone present.

"Great Free Demonic Blood!"

Not everyone present knew the cause of Yun Yan's death. Even some who knew the inside story only knew that Yun Yan had hired an assassin to kill Bai Ze.

As for Yun Yan being baptized by the blood of the Great Freedom Demon, even within the Jade Capital Martial Arts Academy, only a very few people knew about it.

As for the others, although they had some vague guesses, they had no real evidence.

The appearance of the words "Great Freedom Demon Blood" at this moment naturally caused a stir.

Even those who knew the inside story were surprised.

There's no other reason than that when the Great Freedom Demon Lord reclaims the body, he even extracts the essence, energy, and spirit of the one being baptized, so how could he possibly leave behind the Great Freedom Demon Blood?

Furthermore, although the members of the Great Freedom Demonic Cult are infamous, those who have been baptized will almost never reveal any special aura unless they display the physical supernatural powers brought about by their demonic blood.

The Great Lord of Freedom in mythology is present with all living beings, like an invisible demon, undetectable by anyone. The Great Lord of Freedom Demonic Cult also inherits this trait, and is difficult to expose itself except when receiving baptism.

But now, the corpse not only revealed its aura, but also directly exposed its demonic blood.

The Great Free Demon Lord didn't completely devour them; he left behind some demonic blood.

This is a special case.

“Madam Yun, this concerns the blood of the Great Freedom Demon, we must investigate thoroughly.”

The middle-aged man persisted, saying, "We must conduct the most in-depth investigation into everything related to the Great Freedom Demon Lord."

If it's just a body that's been drained, then it's actually worthless, because anything valuable has been taken by the Great Freedom Demon Lord.

But now, with demonic blood still remaining, things are different.

Furthermore, this may be the first instance of demonic blood left behind by the Great Freedom Demon Lord.

The middle-aged man's aura vibrated, and his dark black true energy surged wildly.

In the next instant, a surge of profound energy rushed into the memorial service, revealing the figure of a middle-aged man with a cold and solemn expression.

"Xiao Zangfeng," the old principal murmured the man's name.

This person is none other than Xiao Zangfeng, who served as a witness to the duel between Bai Ze and Yun Yan.

Now that Yun Yan is dead, Xiao Zangfeng will naturally keep an eye on things to prevent the Yun family from using this as a pretext to attack Bai Ze.

The middle-aged man from before was sent by him, and he himself was nearby.

As a practitioner of the "Northern Emperor's Black Laws," Xiao Zangfeng always puts his responsibilities first, which is why he came in person to fulfill his duty as a witness. Now he is also fulfilling his responsibility—to investigate the Great Freedom Demon Lord.
