Trading the heavens starting from immortality

Chapter 74 Confrontation with Hua Tiandu, "Public Opinion" Turns the Tide

Although Hua Tian had a good plan, the result was somewhat different from what he had expected.

"As expected of a cancer, their methods are indeed despicable!"

Sensing the seductive power in Hua Tiandu's words, Fang Han cursed inwardly.

Although it was only a few words, the thoughts and will contained in these bewitching powers had probably reached the level of a celestial being or even higher. Ordinary disciples of the Divine Transformation Realm would probably be controlled by this will in a fraction of a second, and their actions would be beyond their control.

If it were any other ordinary disciple, even a true master of supernatural powers, being splashed with this filthy water would likely immediately comply with the other party's wishes and confess their crimes in front of everyone. At that time, once the final verdict was reached, not only would they be implicated, but even Fang Qingxue would be completely implicated, with unimaginable consequences.

However, Fang Han has already broken through the Divine Power Realm and just unlocked all his aptitudes. The strength of his will is comparable to that of a Divine Power Level 10 expert with 30 million horsepower. Ordinary methods cannot affect his will at all.

However, this also shows how terrifying and despicable Hua Tiandu's methods are!

"The cultivation world is indeed a tough place to survive. Without a powerful patron or enough trump cards, you might not even know how you died!"

Fang Han thought to himself.

Fortunately, he was cautious enough and unlocked all his innate talents in advance in order to kill the Great Demon King, otherwise he might have really capsized in a ditch.

Having figured out Hua Tiandu's methods, Fang Han had already labeled Hua Tiandu, the first true disciple of the Feathered Ascension Sect, as "a cancerous reincarnation, a shameless scoundrel, and capable of anything."

In retrospect, this label is quite consistent with his actions.

If Hua Tian can deal with him openly and honestly, Fang Han can look at him with more respect. But if he only uses underhanded methods, then he shouldn't blame Fang Han for retaliating and suppressing him severely in the future, disregarding their fraternal bond!

Of course, in the eyes of others, even Hua Tiandu's true disciples, what Hua Tiandu said was just a simple question, and there was nothing wrong with it.

"Heh! Hua Tiandu, I'm sorry to disappoint you. It's common knowledge that Shi Longzi died because he provoked the Demon Commander. If you don't believe me, you can go to the Sect Master to verify it. If all else fails, you can confront the Demon Commander Ying Tianqing face to face. But instead, you came here, in front of everyone, to question a mere outer disciple like me, and even secretly used bewitching power. I wonder, Hua Tiandu, what are your true intentions?"

Fang Han said coldly, emphasizing the words "secretly" and "intentions".

This directly exposed Hua Tiandu's conspiracy.

"What?!"

"this..."

Upon hearing Fang Han's shocking remarks, many disciples exchanged bewildered glances, most of them disbelieving his claims.

Even women like Xu Yue'er and Ye Yu were skeptical.

In the eyes of all of them, Hua Tiandu, as the first true disciple, was highly respected.

For such an existence to personally deal with an outer disciple is like saying that to resolve a dispute between two countries, the emperor of a country would personally go to the front line to fight like a common soldier. How could that be possible?

"Kid, you seem pretty good at throwing dirty water! Your methods are truly despicable!"

"Yes! Kid, if you keep spreading dirty water, once the Sect Master finds out, you and your disciples will all suffer!"

Some disciples spoke up indignantly to defend Hua Tiandu.

Although these disciples retorted, hoping to gain favor with Hua Tiandu, they dared not use excessive language. After all, he had already broken through the Divine Power Realm and achieved magical power, and was not someone they could insult or provoke.

Upon hearing this, Hua Tiandu's expression changed slightly. Although these two sentences were meant to defend him, weren't they clearly an insult? And Hua Tiandu couldn't refute them. At this moment, Hua Tiandu felt as if he had swallowed a green-headed fly, and he even felt disgusted with the two disciples who defended him.

He never expected that this mere disciple of Purple Lightning Peak could block his methods and even openly reveal his actions.

Could this person possess a Dao artifact?

If the artifact spontaneously protects its master, it would be truly difficult to control the other party's mind.

"Damn it!"

Hua Tiandu's expression was uncertain.

At this moment, Hua Tian even had the urge to slap Fang Han, this disciple of Zidian Peak, to death.

However, he could not do that. The matter of the Heavenly Demon Battlefield was probably being paid attention to not only by the higher-ups of the Feathered Ascension Sect, but also by the Sect Master.

As the top disciple of the Feathered Ascension Sect, any outrageous behavior of his would have a negative impact.

Therefore, even though Hua Tian was extremely displeased, he could not show it at all.

Taking a deep breath, Hua Tiandu said calmly, "Junior Brother Fang, you are mistaken! This matter is of great importance, concerning the safety of every one of us Ascension Disciples. I was also worried, which is why I inquired. As for your claim about using bewitching power, that is a false accusation. I'm sure the Sect Leader can investigate this matter thoroughly, and the truth will be revealed then!"

Lightly dismissing the matter, Hua Tiandu continued, "My Feathered Immortal Sect is one of the Ten Immortal Sects. How can it be acceptable for our disciples to use demonic treasures? If this gets out, how will other immortal sects view us? How will my Feathered Immortal Sect stand in the eyes of other immortal sects in the future?"

"I was entrusted by Elder Tianxing to rectify the sect's conduct, and I have the responsibility and obligation to supervise all disciples of the Feathered Ascension Sect. Junior Brother Fang, put down your demonic artifacts, stop thinking about crooked paths, and focus on proper cultivation—that's the right path. Otherwise, our Feathered Ascension Sect will appear neither celestial nor demonic, but a chaotic mess!"

Since the methods of bewitching him were not working, he would use his status as the top disciple to rectify the sect's conduct once again and, incidentally, teach this despicable disciple a lesson.

Upon hearing this, Fang Han nodded with a mocking expression, agreeing lightly, "Heh! Senior Brother Hua is absolutely right. Some disciples really need to be disciplined. For example, Senior Sister Mo and Yuan Jiankong are greedy and, in order to seize my pills, they didn't hesitate to take risks, colluding with Liu Kang and other disciples to frame me. In the end, Elder Tianxing discovered their scheme, confiscated their magic weapons, and expelled them from the sect, resulting in a tragic end."

There were also inner and outer disciples like Liu Kang who, for the sake of a few Foundation Establishment Pills, colluded with Yuan Jiankong and others to slander me. In the end, Elder Tianxing punished them by making them face the wall in the "Immortal Prison" for three years.

Then there's Jin Shitai, one of the true inheritors of supernatural powers. Based on unverified rumors, he plotted to seize the treasure possessed by Senior Sister Fang Qingxue. He conspired with Wang Molin, the outstanding disciple of the Demon God Sect, known as "Little True Man of the Heavenly Wolf." Ultimately, their conspiracy was exposed. Wang Molin, a fool, still tried to collude with a powerful figure even after losing his treasure, and was eventually killed by Jin Shitai. This Jin Shitai, who considered himself invincible, was unfortunately witnessed by me in secret. He even tried to attack Senior Sister Fang while she was healing, but I severed both his arms with my mental sword control, attempting to turn the tables. However, Elder Tianxing was wise, powerful, and impartial, preventing his scheme from succeeding!

Enraged, Jin Shitai tried to kill me, but he paid the price: his mountain palace was reclaimed, and even in death, he was expelled from the Feathered Gate—a truly tragic end!

After a pause, Fang Han continued, "Yuan Jiankong, Senior Sister Mo, and others are all disciples of your Tiandu Peak, Hua Tiandu. I think if you want to rectify the sect's conduct, Hua Tiandu, you should start by rectifying your own Tiandu Peak!"

Otherwise, many people might think that the disciples of Tiandu Peak are all lowlifes! It would be an insult to the reputation of my Yuhua Sect!

How can we sweep the world without sweeping a house?

If Yifeng is not rectified, how can the entire Yuhua Sect be rectified?

Our Feathered Ascension Sect prides itself on being a renowned sect of immortals, and we must set an example by following the right path and walking the righteous road!

If they engage in any sinister or wicked deeds, even if you, Senior Brother Hua, don't say anything, once I become a true disciple of the Ascension Sect, I won't let them off easily!

Good and evil are rewarded accordingly; cause and effect are a cycle. Justice resides in the hearts of the people and cannot be erased by a single word.

There are gods watching from above; Heaven sees all. I may be cold, but I walk upright and sit straight; a straight body casts no crooked shadow!

"Hua Tiandu, if you still insist on persisting, then after this assessment, I will take you to the elders of the Feathered Heaven Palace for a proper discussion. Do you dare?"

Fang Han's remarks were truly eye-opening, completely exposing the truth to the public.

This made some of the inner and outer disciples who had previously echoed his opinions feel extremely ashamed of their past criticisms. It also made some ambitious individuals feel a chill in their hearts.

It also helped many disciples who were unaware of the truth and confused to understand the cause and effect of the recent events.

"So that's how it is! No wonder Azure Flame Peak suddenly disappeared!"

"I never imagined that Jinshitai would be so despicable! Fortunately, Senior Brother Fang Han exposed their conspiracy!"

"It turns out we misunderstood Senior Brother Fang Han!"

"Senior Brother Fang Han must have suffered a tremendous injustice, being misunderstood by so many people!"

None of the disciples who can enter the Feathered Ascension Sect are fools; with a little thought, they can roughly understand the truth behind the recent rumors.

In an instant, public opinion completely reversed.

Many people's eyes were also focused on Hua Tiandu, and they felt a little strange.

So, it turns out that the highly respected and brilliant senior disciple Hua, the first true disciple in their eyes, is actually such an aggressive and unreasonable person?

Moreover, the administration was clearly not very strict.

The atmosphere at the scene was somewhat eerie.
