The Devil's Tribulation

Chapter 966 You are the devil

Nanzhou Holy Flame Island, in the Holy Flame Realm.

Pan Chengfeng wiped his forehead and asked, "How does Bao'er know about these things? Have you been there?"

Xue You glanced at her beautiful eyes and said, "How could I possibly go there? Let alone the center of the Crimson Mountains, I can't even go to the inner part."

Before Pan Chengfeng could ask, Xueyou explained herself: "It was the ancestor who told me."

More than two hundred years ago, I had just formed my nascent soul and was preparing to go out and gain experience.

My master knows that my appearance might cause some unnecessary trouble, so he asked me to change into a higher-grade veil before going out.

I searched for a long time in the Duibao Hall before I finally found a wooden silk veil.

This veil can block the divine sense of those at the Refinement Void level; I think that's enough.

But Master still felt it wouldn't work and told me to go ask the Ancestor for it.

After I explained my purpose to the Ancestor, he gave me this True Yang Silk Veil.

It is said that it can block the divine sense of those in the early stages of fusion, and can also block the divine sense of those in the middle stages of fusion.

Then the patriarch casually remarked, "If it were made of silkworm silk, even a Mahayana cultivator wouldn't be able to see your true form."

Out of curiosity, I asked, and the old master told me about the origin and characteristics of the silkworm.

The silkworm is a companion insect of the demon dragon. It has the strength of the fifth rank in its infancy and becomes a great demon with the strength of the seventh rank when it grows up.

However, due to their living environment, silkworms are very afraid of the cold, so dealing with them is not difficult.

The silk it spits out is impervious to water and fire, extremely resilient, and has the miraculous effect of blocking divine sense, making it a high-grade material for refining artifacts.

The best part isn't even the silk, but the skin shed by the silkworm. The ancestor said that silkworm skin is a material for refining quasi-immortal treasures, and even immortal treasures!

Pan Chengfeng wiped his drool and said, "It's actually material for refining immortal treasures!"

"If I don't find a chance to steal...something, will those crimson mountains still be considered my kitchen?"

"Husband, please don't go and die!"

Xueyou cautioned, "The Demon Dragon's strength is unfathomable; even Mahayana cultivators dare not approach within a million miles."

Pan Chengfeng scratched his head and said, "I was just saying it casually, and you actually took it seriously."

Okay, here's the stuff. Now you don't have to worry about it being spied on by malicious people, which will save you a lot of trouble.

Xueyou took the veil, feeling a sweet warmth in her heart, and really wanted to give the man in front of her a little 'reward'.

However, she had only been with Pan Chengfeng for two months, and still felt quite ashamed, so she hesitated to take any action.

Xin'er had no such reservations and kissed Pan Chengfeng on the cheek, saying, "I like it very much, thank you, my husband~"

Xueyou's pretty face turned red. She didn't want to lose to Xin'er, but she just couldn't bring herself to do it.

Just as she was encouraging herself, she suddenly noticed that Pan Chengfeng's expression changed slightly, and Xueyou subconsciously released her divine sense.

Outside the formation, Li Ke, Ye Bufan, and Yu Shaoqing stood with different expressions.

Pan Chengfeng sighed and said, "They just won't stop for a moment! You all go back first, I have some things to take care of."

Pan Chengfeng knew perfectly well why the group had come.

As for why Yu Shaoqing was here, it was naturally because he couldn't take action here, not only because there were too many people, but mainly because this was the exit.

As soon as Pan Chengfeng removed the formation, Li Ke, Ye Bufan, and Yu Shaoqing were all startled.

Because a pair of cold eyes were staring at the three of them, scrutinizing them.

The three hurriedly cupped their hands in unison and said, "Greetings, Fairy Snow."

Pan Chengfeng and Xin'er were inside the formation, which didn't surprise them.

Surprisingly, Xue You, the Holy Maiden of the Jade Maiden Sect, was also inside. What were the two women, a lone man and a woman, doing inside the formation?

The three were very curious, but dared not ask.

Xue You snorted coldly, completely ignoring the three of them, and flew away on her escape light.

Xin'er said goodbye to Pan Chengfeng and then left.

Pan Chengfeng retrieved the cauldron, his tone displeased, and said, "Aren't you all in a bit too much of a hurry? Can't you wait for me to come to you?"

Being interrupted during their private time, Pan Chengfeng was definitely annoyed, and his tone naturally wasn't pleasant.

Yu Shaoqing pointed at Pan Chengfeng with one hand, his face full of anger, and said, "Pan Chengfeng, did you arrange all of this?!"

Pan Chengfeng spread his hands, looking completely bewildered, and said, "What have I arranged? This is all so abrupt and nonsensical. Have you lost your mind?"

When Pan Chengfeng's spiritual sense swept over Yu Shaoqing, he did feel a little flustered.

But this kid actually dared to come in front of him, wasn't that giving him the opportunity to silence him?

Pan Chengfeng was considering whether or not to make a move. He was confident that he could kill Yu Shaoqing in a short time without using his magic.

But considering that there were several thousand Yu Lei Sect cultivators nearby, he dared not take the risk and temporarily suppressed his urge to kill.

Fortunately, Pan Chengfeng didn't make a move. The reason Yu Shaoqing came to confront Pan Chengfeng was to provoke him into making a move.

Yu Shaoqing held a talisman in his hand; it was a Vajra Talisman, a peak sixth-grade talisman.

Once activated, even a cultivator in the early stages of the Integration Realm cannot break through it within a few breaths.

Yu Shaoqing was also gambling, gambling that Pan Chengfeng would make a move, and gambling that he could escape.

Because his claim of having "evidence that Pan Chengfeng framed his fellow disciples" is actually unreliable and is mostly for the purpose of deceiving Shang into inheriting the business.

His so-called evidence was merely his own account, lacking any substantial evidence.

Such a serious crime could not be convicted of Pan Chengfeng without evidence, so he thought of taking the risk of confronting Pan Chengfeng directly.

Seeing Pan Chengfeng feigning ignorance, Yu Shaoqing's heart skipped a beat. He forced himself to remain calm and said, "You killed Yu Jiancheng and then tricked us into going to that place."

Then you notified the cultivators of the Southern Continent, instructing them to ambush and kill over a thousand of the sect's Void Refinement elites!

Although those thousand-plus people were cultivators of the Yu family, they were also disciples of the sect. Therefore, Yu Shaoqing only mentioned that they were disciples of the sect and did not mention that they were cultivators of the Yu family.

Upon hearing this, Li Ke and Ye Bufan were so shocked that they forgot why they had come here in the first place.

If what Yu Shaoqing said is true, then this is a matter of utmost importance!

Yu Jiancheng was killed by Pan Chengfeng; both of them knew this.

They were unaware that those thousand-plus elites had been 'sold' to the Southern Continent.

This is a grave crime of 'treason,' and no sect can allow such a thing to happen.

Pan Chengfeng scratched his ear and said, "Nonsense, utter nonsense! Do you have any evidence to accuse me of such a serious crime? Show it to me!"

At this moment, Pan Chengfeng had already cursed Nangong Tian's ancestors for eighteen generations, but he still needed to remain calm and get through this hurdle first.

Yu Shaoqing was speechless. He was afraid that they would ask him for evidence. Then he raised his voice and said, "I am the best witness!"

What you did cannot stand up to scrutiny! I will definitely report you to the sect's Enforcement Hall!

Pan Chengfeng sneered inwardly, "Trying to scare me? I've been influenced by TV dramas in my past life!"

Pan Chengfeng said expressionlessly, "Perfect, I also want to sue you. I'll sue you for colluding with foreign enemies, for framing your own family, for being a coward and deserting your post..."

Pan Chengfeng's voice grew louder and louder, until he finally roared, "I'm going to sue you for framing your fellow disciples!"

Even if your Yu family is powerful, you can't bear such a crime!

"fart!"

Each of these is an heinous crime!

Yu Shaoqing looked surprised and said, "You're talking nonsense! How could I possibly frame my own brother!"

"It's you! You have a grudge against the Yu family! That's why you have the motive!"

When asked about his motives, Pan Chengfeng instantly moved in front of Yu Shaoqing, their noses almost touching.

Pan Chengfeng, who was over 1.9 meters tall, stared down at Yu Shaoqing and asked, word by word, "You said that I killed Yu Jiancheng, when and how did I kill him?"

Yu Jiancheng was murdered, and none of your thousand-plus people noticed? Or was someone deliberately covering it up?!

Pan Chengfeng asked him a series of questions, but Yu Shaoqing could only stammer and couldn't give a coherent answer. He was even forced to take several steps back.

The momentum they had just built up vanished in an instant.

Pan Chengfeng stared into Yu Shaoqing's eyes. As Yu Shaoqing took a step back, Pan Chengfeng took a step forward.

He continued to press, "And another thing, more than a thousand people have died, how are you still alive?"

There were many cultivators at the Great Perfection of the Void Refinement stage among them, so why was it that only you survived?

As for your motives, you wouldn't happen to want to become the first heir of the Yu family, would you?

Yu Jiancheng is dead, your brother is dead, Yu Qian is crippled, who's next?

Is this motivation enough for you to take the risk?

"The heir to the Yu family patriarch, is that what you've been dreaming about all along?"

Yu Shaoqing stumbled back several steps, his face pale, and said, "You...you...you're spouting nonsense!!"

"How could I... how could I possibly do such a thing?!"

Pan Chengfeng scoffed, "You can know a person's face but not their heart. Only you know what kind of person you are. Just wait until you get back and have your soul searched!"

"Ah!!!" Yu Shaoqing suddenly grabbed his hair and roared, as if he had gone mad, "Pan Chengfeng! You are a devil!! You will die a horrible death!!!"

Yu Shaoqing knew the Yu family's situation better than anyone else.

When Pan Chengfeng mentioned soul searching, Yu Shaoqing's mind suddenly exploded.

If those words were taken to court, there's a good chance he would actually be subjected to a soul search.

Because Yu Sheren has always done it this way.

Soul searching, if done skillfully by someone of a much higher level than you, has a small chance of going unharmed, but a high probability of turning you into an idiot.

If someone of similar cultivation level were to search, they would almost certainly become an idiot, and there was also a considerable chance of their soul exploding.

In short, 99% of those who have their souls searched do not have a good ending.

Yu Shaoqing ran away, yes, he ran away, scared away by Pan Chengfeng's words.

He dared not gamble, because the Yu family treated their branches as if they were nothing.

As for where he went, Pan Chengfeng didn't have time to look for him, because the trouble wasn't over yet.
