My Disciples Are All Villains

chapter-1290
Qin Renyue was startled by Lu Zhou’s words. Then, he said, “Yes. Since you’re here as well, Brother Lu, why don’t you preside over this matter?”
Tuoba Hong. “???”
It was not so bad if Qin Renyue had just ignored Tuoba Hong, but how did the people of the Tuoba clan feel now watching Qin Renyue addressing that old man as Brother Lu and asking that old man to preside over the matter?
Lu Zhou shook his head slightly and said, “I’m not an unreasonable person. The Tuoba clan invited you over to stand up for them, not me. You should do it.”
“This…” Qin Renyue felt slightly awkward.At this moment, Tuoba Hong stumbled a few steps back.
“First Elder!”
Two members of the Tuoba clan rushed forward to support Tuoba Hong.
“I… I’m fine…” Tuoba Hong said in a low voice. He knew he could not collapse at this moment. If he did, the Tuoba clan would be finished. He had to hold on even if it cost him his life.
Lu Zhou glanced at Tuoba Hong, whose expression was rather unsightly, and said, “No need to mind me. Since you want to seek justice, you better see it through. Don’t make a joke out of yourself.”
Tuoba Hong wiped the sweat off his face and said, “Yes, old sir.”
Qin Renyue said, “Alright, let’s start.”Qin Renyue looked at the Tuoba clansmen before he looked at Yannan’s disciples.
At this time, Mingshi Yin suddenly said, “Zhao Yu, Venerable Qin just arrived. Since you’re a member of the royal family, you should be the most neutral person here. You tell Venerable Master Qin what you’ve seen and heard so Venerable Master Qin can make a fair judgment.”
Qin Renyue shifted his gaze over. “As it turns out Young Master Zhao is here as well.”
Zhao Yu said, “I’ve recounted what I’ve seen and heard, but those people didn’t believe me. What else can I say?”
Qin Renyue frowned. “No one believed the words of a member of the royal family?”
As soon as Qin Renyue’s voice fell, the Tuoba clansmen lowered their heads immediately.
Tuoba Hong hastily said, “No, no, it was a misunderstanding. We just had a hard time accepting that Venerable Master Tuoba is dead. It’s not that we doubt Young Master Zhao’s words.”
Qin Renyue nodded. “Thank you, Young Master Zhao. I’ll have to trouble you to recount what you know again.”
“Alright,” Zhao Yu said with a smile.
In fact, Zhao Yu was the twenty-third son of Great Qin’s emperor. He was bestowed with the title of a Duke when he was born. People mostly addressed him as Young Master Zhao. He was rather well-liked in the royal family. In the early years, the internal strife in the royal family did not affect him at all. Moreover, he was a Duke with no ambition. Since he was quite friendly, he was very popular.
Zhao Yu recounted everything he had seen and heard in Yu Zhong to Qin Renyue. When he described how Tuoba Sicheng was severely injured by Tian Wu using the Divine Soul Pearl and how it directly pierced through him, the expressions of the Tuoba clansmen were very unsightly.
Zhao Yu was honest and did not hide anything. He even described the scene where Tuoba Sicheng and Ye Zheng colluded to kill Lu Zhou in great detail.
One had to admit Zhao Yu was a great storyteller. The story he told was truly soul-stirring.
“Venerable Master Tuoba thought he was invincible because he had 20 Birth Charts, but he underestimated Tian Wu’s strength. Moreover, he did not expect Lord Zhennan to be Tian Wu’s husband. Lord Zhennan appeared and attacked with his life on the line to destroy Venerable Master Tuoba’s Birth Charts. The force of his attack seemed like it could split the sky open. Alas, Lord Zhennan exhausted most of his energy with his attack. It was an unforgettable scene…”
Zhao Yu continued to say energetically, “Fortunately, Pavilion Master Lu was there to fight against Tianwu. Logically speaking, Venerable Master Tuoba should’ve been able to survive Lord Zhennan’s attack as long he was given some time to recuperate. While Pavilion Master Lu was using thunderous skills to defeat Tian Wu, Venerable Master Tuoba and Venerable Master Ye launched a sneak attack on Pavilion Master Lu!”
“…”
The air seemed to freeze. The surroundings were still as though the scenery was now a painting. The Yannan disciples and Tuoba clansmen stood unmoving, looking like figures in a painting.
On the other hand, Qin Renyue listened attentively with an expectant expression on his face.
Zhao Yu continued to say, “Guess what happened? Pavilion Master Lu spun around at that time and launched a palm seal. The palm was as vast as the sky and the five fingers were like mountain peaks. That palm seal pressed down on Venerable Master Tuoba. Then… T-then, Venerable Master Tuoba lost all his Birth Charts! He had zero Birth Charts!”
“…”
Mingshi Yin who was listening as well could not help but feel slightly embarrassed. Although Zhao Yu was speaking facts, why did it sound so exaggerated?
Qin Renyue asked, “Then, what about Venerable Master Ye?”
“At that time, Venerable Master Ye launched another sneak attack in the air. He used the power of the Dao, clashing with Pavilion Master Lu with a force that was difficult to capture with the naked eye…” Zhao Yu said. He paused briefly before he continued to say, “Venerable Master Ye was no match for Pavilion Master Lu at all. The difference in their strength was so wide that Venerable Master Ye was sent flying with just a strike, instantly losing one of his Birth Chart!”
At this point, Zhao Yu grew slightly angry when he recalled what happened. Hence, his personal opinion colored his story-telling. “If it were me, I’d just flee. Who knows? Maybe Venerable Masters’ thought process is different from ordinary people’s. In any case, instead of retreating, Venerable Master Ye led all the disciples to attack. Alas, they had forgotten about Pavilion Master Lu’s subordinate, Lu Wu!”
“Lu Wu’s body was several thousand feet long! It leaped into the air and unfurled its nine tails. Then, it used its ice ability and killed all disciples below the stage of a Venerable Master!” Zhao Yu felt his blood boiling and his fighting spirit rising as he recounted this part of the story. “It was majestic, as expected of a beast emperor! With the arrival of a beast emperor, would there be anyone who’s unconvinced?”
“…”
The atmosphere became even more stifling.
The listeners had all forgotten how to breathe. Cultivators could hold their breaths for a long time, after all. They were so engrossed in Zhao Yu’s story that they had forgotten about everything else.
While Zhao Yu was burning with passion while retold the story, Yannan’s disciples and the Tuoba clansmen felt as though they were drenched in ice-cold water.
At this moment, Zhao Yu glanced at the crowd and noticed the unsightly expressions on their faces. He felt that perhaps he had been too excited when he recounted the story. Now that he had reached the part where the Venerable Masters died, he thought he should sound a little sadder. Hence, he sighed dramatically and said, “Perhaps, the two Venerable Masters made such a bad decision in a moment of muddle-headedness. I truly respected them. I didn’t expect… I didn’t expect…”
Zhao Yu trailed off theatrically before he sighed again.
“…”
“…”
Subsequently, Zhao Yu bowed at Qin Renyue and said, “That’s all I have to say.” Then, he turned to face the others before he raised his voice and said, “I will bear responsibility for each word I said. If you doubt my words, you can verify them yourself. Moreover, Venerable Master Fan was present for most of the part so you can ask him as well.”
“Venerable Master Fan was present as well?” Qin Renyue frowned.
“Venerable Master Tuoba briefly possessed the Divine Soul Pearl and thought he was invincible. Hence, he made a move against Venerable Master Fan. However, Venerable Master Fan used a Collective Teleportation Jade Talisman to… escape,” Zhao Yu said. Then, he retreated to his original position. He had completed his mission.
Yannan’s disciples and the Tuoba clansmen wore grim expressions on their faces at this moment.
Qin Renyue said, “I think I have a good grasp on what happened now.”
Qin Renyue walked to the center of the platform before he looked at Tuoba Hong and the others. He said, “In the cultivation world, the strong prey on the weak. Venerable Master Tuoba made a mistake and brought this upon himself. Do you accept this judgment?”
Tuoba Hong stumbled back. He could no longer hold on and fell to the ground.
Everyone’s emotions were in chaos. No one spoke.
After a long time, Tuoba Hong said, “I’ll… I’ll listen to Venerable Master Qin’s judgment.”
Then, Qin Renyue turned around and looked at Ye Wei. “It’s the same for Venerable Master Ye. Elder Ye, do you have any objections?”
Ye Wei had long gotten over the stage of struggling and immense pain. He remained calm as he said, “Ye Zheng harmed many Yannan’s disciples because of his own selfish desires. I’ve already executed him on behalf of our ancestors.”
Qin Renyue nodded before he said, “Since I’m here, if you have any questions or objections, you can voice them out..”
