Chapter 808: Chapter 808
The words spoken by Qi Changran were logical and coherent. Ding Fan, who previously had animosities with Fenghuo Gate and Mysterious Sword Sect, would indeed be the first suspect if motivation were considered.
"Do you have anything else to say?" The man in the mask looked extremely somber at this moment.
Ding Fan, for a while, had nothing to say.
"Ding Fan is truly audacious, daring to commit murder here. Even during the martial arts tournament of Serpent Island, how dare you, thinking the organizers have no power and letting guests suffer from your reckless actions?" Qi Changran fanned the flames from the side.
"Senior, this Ding Fan is really showing no respect to you. If you don't deal with Ding Fan properly, who will respect you in the future!"
Guo Ziyu hurriedly added from the side.
The masked man was silent, contemplating. Although he said nothing, Qi Changran could clearly feel the killing intent growing heavier on him.
At this point, Qi Changran felt a surge of smugness.
Given the current situation, even if Ding Fan was a peerless genius that comes once in a millennia, the people from Immortal Sect wouldn't keep him. Committing murder on Serpent Island, if the Immortal Sect doesn't take action, then they really would have no way to mix in the Ancient Martial World anymore.
"Senior... both Fenghuo Gate and Mysterious Sword Sect came for the martial arts tournament, if the main culprit isn't eliminated, how can they be appeased..." Guo Ziyu said from the side.
"It seems that Quanzhen Xuanmen really moved heaven and earth to eliminate me," Ding Fan said indifferently.
Qi Changran snorted lightly. "It's not that we want you dead, but what you've done is too excessive, intolerable by heaven's law!"
Ding Fan nodded and then turned to the masked man. "People from Quanzhen Xuanmen have said a lot just now, I believe the senior has heard enough... I have a few things I wish to ask the senior."
The masked man was taken aback, then responded, "Speak."
"May I ask, here on Serpent Island, the person who repeatedly captured martial artists, absorbing their Inner Strength for cultivation, what do you think should be done to such a person?" Ding Fan asked loudly.
Qi Changran's eyebrows slightly creased, and Guo Ziyu also looked stunned.
Both believed what they did was utterly secret, unknown to others.
"Such Evil Cultivators, harming people's lives and seizing others' cultivation, there's nothing to be said, kill!" the masked man said coldly.
"And what about continuous killings on Serpent Island, over thirty... What should that be counted as?"
The masked man coldly responded, "Also, kill!"
Qi Changran then stood up. "Ding Fan, don't confuse the situation here, only you have a motive, and if you can't clarify, I wouldn't mind helping people from Immortal Sect eliminate you!"
Qi Changran stood out, his aura formidable, a cold gust rampaging about…
The masked man looked at Ding Fan and said, "If you can't clarify, then don't blame us in Immortal Sect for being ruthless…"
Ding Fan smiled lightly. "Actually, the simplest way to explain this is to bring Dong Fangshuo and Gu Mingfeng here and let them speak for themselves, wouldn't that make everything clear?"
After Ding Fan spoke, everyone present looked at each other in confusion.
"Weren't those two said to be dead already?"
"Yeah, how can dead people speak…"
Qi Changran's brow furrowed tightly, a sense of unease slowly setting in.
Last night, he handed Gu Mingfeng and Dong Fangshuo over to Guo Ziyu for training, and Guo Ziyu said later a Yuan Beast arrived, and he fled because he couldn't resist.
Later, Qi Changran, worried about complications, went with Guo Ziyu to the scene.
At the site beside that giant rock, only a few large footprints and two pools of blood, along with some torn clothes were left, which indicated that Gu Mingfeng and Dong Fangshuo must have been eaten by that Yuan Beast.
Qi Changran specifically followed the footprints of the Yuan Beast for a while.
After the Yuan Beast left this place, it directly fled into the Deep Sea and no other traces were found, so Qi Changran decided those two must be dead.
But looking at the current situation, considering Ding Fan's demeanor, could it be those two hadn't died?
At this moment, Qi Changran's expression turned somewhat uneasy.
Ding Fan ignored everyone's reactions and directly pulled two people out of his storage ring. When Qi Changran saw these two people, his face turned utterly pale.
The two people Ding Fan pulled out, if not Dong Fangshuo and Gu Mingfeng, then who could they be?
Guo Ziyu was also dumbfounded at this moment, glancing confusedly at Qi Changran. In front of so many people, if these two directly identified Qi Changran and him, the two of them only had death as their fate. They absolutely couldn't escape.
"Do you think just bringing two random people can fool us? Boy, you are too cunning; let me teach you a lesson!"
After Qi Changran finished speaking, a Wind Blade slashed directly towards them.
That Wind Blade was very strong, and in an instant, it already slashed towards Gu Mingfeng and Dong Fangshuo.
"Qi Changran, what are you doing?" the masked man shouted from the side, but he was too far from Dong Fangshuo and Gu Mingfeng at the moment and couldn't rescue them in time.
Just at that moment, Ding Fan stood up, suddenly swinging his right hand.
A True Qi Shield immediately formed and protected Gu Mingfeng and Dong Fangshuo.

The Wind Blade struck solidly upon the True Qi Shield formed by Ding Fan, and for a moment, the Wind Blade was actually halted.
"What... What is that? A Qi Shield formed from condensing Qi? How is that possible?"
"To be able to solidify Inner Strength into form, to what terrifying extent has this young man reached..."
The surrounding people, seeing Ding Fan actually form a Qi Shield, were all astonished at the moment. Even Qi Changran himself widened his eyes in disbelief.
A Qi Shield, even at Earth Level Grade Nine, it was not possible to produce...
While Qi Changran was still unable to react, a strong gust of wind directly swept over.
The gust was extremely powerful, Qi Changran didn't even have time to react and was directly blown to the ground...
Qi Changran fell to the ground and just when he tried to stand up, a chill passed by, and by the time he looked up, a Sword Beam was already at his throat.
"Move again, and you lose your life!"
At this moment, the masked man stood in front of Qi Changran, his tone icy to an extreme.
Qi Changran, at this moment, did not dare to make any reckless moves, since if the masked man really wanted to kill him, it would be a matter of moments.
Guo Ziyu, seeing this, felt his whole body soften.
He had been hoping that his master would have killed Gu Mingfeng and Dong Fangshuo, and with their deaths, there would be no evidence and perhaps he could still save himself...
But now, not only had Dong Fangshuo and Gu Mingfeng not died, but Qi Changran had also been subdued by the masked man. At this point, Guo Ziyu quickly analyzed the current situation.
The current situation was that he and his master were finished; Gu Mingfeng and Dong Fangshuo knew everything about him and Qi Changran...
Guo Ziyu pondered for a moment, and then directly knelt on the ground, knocking his head repeatedly.
"I am guilty, please spare me... I am guilty..."
All present were stunned, knowing how haughty Guo Ziyu had been before, and now he was kneeling and confessing his guilt, what exactly was going on?
The masked man looked at Guo Ziyu beside him. "What exactly is going on?"
Guo Ziyu hurriedly said, "Senior, I was coerced, I am telling the truth, striving for leniency. The Mysterious Sword Sect, as well as all thirty people from Fenghuo Gate, were all killed by my master... I am just a follower, please let me go..."
As Guo Ziyu spoke, the people present suddenly buzzed.
"What's going on? So it was Qi Changran, who was always shouting about Ding Fan killing people, who is the real murderer?"
"Guo Ziyu is Qi Changran's disciple, can his words be false? It seems that Qi Changran really is the murderer."
The crowd around debated.
"Guo Ziyu... I really misjudged you," Qi Changran lay on the ground, shaking his head and smiling bitterly.
Even though it was a losing situation, one should lose with some dignity, yet Guo Ziyu was actually kneeling and begging for mercy.
"So it really was you who killed on Serpent Island," the masked man said in a grave tone.
"The people from Fenghuo Gate and Mysterious Sword Sect were all killed by us," at this point, Qi Changran no longer needed to pretend. "Blame them for being connected to Ding Fan, otherwise, I wouldn't have touched them!"
"Senior... This Qi Changran not only killed our fellow disciples..." Just then, Gu Mingfeng spoke, "Senior, after capturing them, Qi Changran wanted to absorb our Inner Strength and keep it all for himself... This is simply Evil Cultivation... Senior, please stand up for us!"
Gu Mingfeng said this and immediately lay down on the ground. Dong Fangshuo knelt directly on the ground.
Many bones in Gu Mingfeng's body had been broken by Ding Fan, and it was already very good that he could still lie down.
The masked man glanced at Ding Fan beside him.
At this point, he understood why Ding Fan had said those words before bringing these two people out; obviously, Ding Fan had already known about the other party absorbing someone else's Inner Strength through Evil Cultivation...
"On Serpent Island, Evil Cultivators must be executed, murderers must be beheaded! Qi Changran, now with both human and material evidence present, are you convinced?" the masked man coldly asked Qi Changran.
Qi Changran closed his eyes. At this point, he knew no one could save him; his only option was death...
"Senior, everything was Qi Changran's doing, it has nothing to do with me, I beg you to spare my life!" At this moment, Guo Ziyu knelt on the ground, moving forward a few steps on his knees.
Ding Fan looked at Guo Ziyu, his face filled with disdain.
Guo Ziyu speaking this way was clearly trying to clear his involvement...
"Guo Ziyu, can't you die with some dignity?" Qi Changran coldly said to Guo Ziyu.
"I don't want to die..." Guo Ziyu said, and actually started crying.
"Senior, that's how it is, Qi Changran promised to marry his daughter to me, allowing me to win the Martial Arts Conference, so he made me practice Evil Cultivation... Senior, I am just an ordinary disciple of Quanzhen Xuanmen, Qi Changran is the sect leader, he told me to cultivate, what else could I say, please spare me seeing as I am just an accessory..."
As Guo Ziyu spoke, he continued to knock his head on the ground.
"Don't even think about escaping, if you weren't thinking of benefitting yourself, how could you possibly practice Evil Cultivation..." Wu Die stood out and said.
Guo Ziyu's eyes shifted, then he said, "I... I can tell the senior one thing, please spare my life..."
