Chaos Dao Sheng Jue

Chapter 1044 Prove your innocence

Ling Feng stared at Lu Chen closely and saw that he looked calm and composed from beginning to end, as if he didn't care about the current situation at all.

This made Ling Feng, who was originally full of confidence, feel a little guilty. He thought to himself, "Why is this guy so calm? Did I guess wrong? Or does he have a backup plan?"

In fact, the reason why Ling Feng targeted Lu Chen like this was simply because he saw Li Yue protecting Lu Chen in every way, and he couldn't help but feel jealous.

Therefore, as long as he gets the chance, he will try every means to make things difficult for Lu Chen.

At this point, Ling Feng found himself in a dilemma, so he could only grit his teeth and continue speaking:

"What... am I right? If you can't produce evidence today to prove that you did use all the Immortal Crystals on the Holy Tree, then it is enough to prove that you swallowed up those Immortal Crystals privately!"

At this moment, Liyue, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke.

She first looked at Lu Chen deeply, and a complicated look flashed in her beautiful eyes.

Then, she turned to Ling Feng who was standing beside her and gently scolded him, "Okay, Ling Feng, please stop talking."

Although she was not sure whether what Ling Feng said was true, it didn't matter anymore. What mattered was that the sacred tree had recovered to its original state.

Lu Chen looked around, his eyes sweeping across the faces of everyone present.

He clearly noticed that at this moment, almost everyone's eyes revealed more or less suspicion of him, as if they all believed that he had taken those fairy crystals for himself.

So he took a step forward, and his aura suddenly burst out. Immediately, an invisible pressure spread out, making everyone present feel frightened.

They didn't expect that Lu Chen, who was only at the Heavenly Immortal Realm, had such a powerful aura. Then came Lu Chen's voice:

"I, Lu Chen, have always acted uprightly. How could I do such a petty theft?"

His voice resounded throughout the venue, carrying with it an unquestionable majesty.

After saying that, Lu Chen turned and walked towards the direction of the Blazing Phoenix Blood Fruit tree. Everyone made way for him, their eyes full of curiosity.

Ling Feng was still standing there blankly, looking at Lu Chen's receding back. His expression kept changing, sometimes so gloomy as if water could drip out of it, and sometimes a hint of hesitation and struggle flashed across his face.

Finally, he gritted his teeth and took a step forward to follow.

Soon, Lu Chen arrived under the sacred tree. Lu Chen bent down and picked up a dry branch, and showed it to everyone, saying: "This dry branch is the evidence that I used the immortal crystal!"

Hearing this, everyone focused their attention on the dry branch in his hand.

There was a lot of discussion at once. Then, Lu Chen immediately took out a top-grade immortal crystal from his storage ring and placed it close to the dead branch.

He then practiced the Chaos Dao Sheng Jue, and in an instant, an aura even more powerful than before emanated from him, as if even the air had solidified.

Lu Chen pretended to make a mysterious seal, and his fingertips suddenly flashed with dazzling light.

At the same time, the immortal energy in the top-grade immortal crystal was injected into the dead branches like a trickle of water.

With the continuous infusion of fairy spirit, the originally withered branches gradually regained their vitality, the leaves became lush green again, and the branches stretched out, showing vitality.

Seeing this scene, the originally noisy crowd suddenly became quiet and the discussions stopped abruptly.

Shock and disbelief were written all over everyone's face. They stared blankly at the incredible scene before them with their eyes wide open.

A moment later, a thunderous exclamation broke out in the crowd, and people felt a sense of admiration for Lu Chen.

A hint of relief flashed in Li Yue's eyes. She knew that Lu Chen was indeed misunderstood.

On the other side, Ling Feng's face was filled with astonishment. He couldn't understand how Lu Chen could achieve such a level.

"Impossible... This is absolutely impossible!" Ling Feng muttered to himself, his face full of confusion.

At this moment, a loud and kind laugh broke the deadlock.

"Hahaha, it seems that all this is a misunderstanding. Please don't mind it, little friend Lu Chen."

The Demon King Li Tu slowly walked out of the crowd with a relaxed smile on his face.

Then he looked at Ling Feng who looked dejected and said seriously:

“Ling Feng, although your suspicion is due to your concern for the Holy Tree, you should not jump to conclusions without solid evidence.

In order to make you reflect deeply on your behavior, I have decided to punish you to face the wall in the back mountain for a hundred years. I hope that this period of time will make you learn to be more prudent. "

Upon hearing this punishment, Ling Feng's face turned pale instantly, but he knew that this was what he deserved, so he lowered his head and said nothing, silently accepting the verdict.

Li Tu Demon King then turned to Lu Chen, his eyes gleaming with approval, "Friend Lu Chen, do you think this is okay?"

Lu Chen didn't say anything when he heard this, but just nodded slightly to show that he had no objection.

He believed that no matter what the reason was, since Ling Feng dared to target him, he should be punished accordingly.

Because if he didn't have some tricks up his sleeve, the Demon King Li Tu would probably not be so easy to talk to. The fairy crystals didn't matter, but being cheated was a problem.

Next, at the enthusiastic invitation of Demon King Li Tu, everyone returned to the cave where they were before.

In order to celebrate the successful rescue of the Yanyu clan's sacred tree and the arrival of the three demon kings, Demon King Li Tu specially hosted a banquet to entertain everyone.

During the banquet, everyone tasted various delicacies and clinked glasses, creating a very harmonious atmosphere.

As a result, Lu Chen also got to know the three Demon Kings and the three descendants they brought with them.

The only regret is that Lu Chen has never found a suitable opportunity to ask the Water Demon King about the Starry Sea Realm.

After several hours, the whole banquet gradually came to an end amid laughter and joy, and everyone left one after another.

Lu Chen and Yunxi were arranged to rest in two adjacent stone houses.

Although these two stone houses are simple and plain, they are decorated warmly and comfortably, and obviously have been carefully prepared.

With the mentality of making the best of things, after closing the stone door, Lu Chen sat cross-legged on the stone bed and began to practice the Chaos Dao Sheng Jue.

What Lu Chen didn't know was that after everyone left, the Demon Emperor Li Tu only left behind Li Yue.

Then, the Demon King Li Tu raised his hand and released a demonic power, which instantly formed a light curtain that enveloped the two of them.

Seeing her father's serious expression, Li Yue set up a soundproofing light curtain, guessing that her father must have something important to say...
