Chapter 149 Shocked Everyone
"Hmph, I dare say I've killed a Nascent Soul cultivator. Look at these young people nowadays, they can't even make their boasts believable. They just spout nonsense. What proof do you have?"
Chen Shu noticed the different expressions on the faces of the Golden Core cultivators around him and immediately sensed something was wrong, so he spoke up to refute them.
The situation has now veered off course. If the Nascent Soul Realm experts of the Heavenly Hidden Palace are involved, the mistakes made by those two rash and greedy individuals will be serious.
If someone deliberately uses this as an excuse, they might even frame him, a Golden Core cultivator, and fabricate a story that he, a Nascent Soul expert from the Heavenly Hidden Palace, set a trap to harm his teammates.
Although the possibility is extremely slim, it is not entirely impossible.
After all, once the seed of doubt is planted, he is bound to cause trouble.
But heaven knows how wronged he was.
As a Nascent Soul Realm expert, Su Wan possessed a vast and boundless spiritual power, allowing her to fully understand the subtle thoughts of this late-stage Golden Core Realm expert.
He had no doubts.
In her opinion, even a Nascent Soul cultivator who is seriously injured would not need to cooperate with a Golden Core cultivator and make things so complicated.
It's more likely that they'll absorb its cultivation to restore themselves.
Moreover, does Lin Yao really think he can kill a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator?
It’s simply a fantasy.
Fine, let's smooth things over for this kid.
After considering this, Su Wan said softly, "Alright, we'll discuss the matter of the Heavenly Hidden Palace Protector later. Xiao Yao, you should go and rest now."
"Uh, Sister Su Wan, please don't think I'm fooling you. I really did kill that protector. Look, I still have his token."
Lin Yao understood immediately that Su Wan was protecting him, but he still shook his head and took out a token from his pocket as he spoke.
The characters “Tian” and “Hong” are prominently displayed on the token.
As soon as it appeared, a Nascent Soul Realm aura spread out, along with the unique inherited aura of the Heavenly Hidden Palace.
In an instant, everyone inside the tent, including Su Wan and the black-robed reincarnator, showed expressions of horror on their faces.
Such a token is impossible for even a slightly stronger force to replicate, let alone a Nascent Soul stage force. Anyone who tries to replicate it will be relentlessly hunted down by the Heavenly Concealment Palace.
No one present believed that Lin Yao had such a talent for forgery.
Moreover, the token faintly emanates spatial power, clearly indicating that it is a storage magic item.
Lin Yao was well aware of the methods of the Heavenly Concealment Palace. In order to prevent future troubles and with the intention of developing his strength in a low-key manner, he decided to hand over the token.
Upon seeing this, Su Wan immediately summoned professionals to conduct an appraisal.
After a full half hour, the seal was finally broken, revealing various rare materials, ancient texts, and even items needed for the Nascent Soul stage.
It has everything you need, and it is undoubtedly the property of a Nascent Soul Realm expert from the Heavenly Hidden Palace.
At this moment, the Golden Core cultivators who were ordered not to leave looked at Chen Shu, who had been arguing with Lin Yao, with extremely strange eyes.
Seeing this, Chen Shu felt extremely distressed, his face full of tears, and he secretly grumbled to himself.
"What a terrible injustice! If I had really encountered such a lousy Nascent Soul expert, I would have captured him long ago. Why would I do something as foolish as trying to negotiate with a tiger?"
"Chen Shu, I have some questions for you later. Don't worry, it's not that I doubt you, I just need your cooperation."
Su Wan looked calmly at Chen Shu and said gently.
"Understood, I will cooperate fully."
Chen Shu replied helplessly. He knew in his heart that the seed of doubt had been planted and could only be eliminated slowly over time.
At this moment, Lin Yao raised his hand and asked, "Sister Su Wan, may I listen in?"
Lin Yao's actions this time were tantamount to dropping a bombshell, achieving an unparalleled feat.
To kill a Nascent Soul Realm expert lurking in the shadows—that courage alone far surpasses that of ordinary people.
It should be noted that most of the Golden Core cultivators present, if they were in their shoes, would probably have been terrified by the aura of the Nascent Soul cultivator.
They wouldn't dare to fight back, let alone kill him.
Now that Lin Yao has spoken with the aura of having killed a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, Su Wan really can't refuse.
But Chen Shu's face fell even more, thinking that Lin Yao was young and impetuous, and once he made up his mind, nothing could change it. He wanted to argue right and wrong on the spot after a quarrel.
Even Su Wan thought so.
"Don't worry, everyone. I never wrong innocent people. I just want to get to the bottom of things. This kid doesn't seem like someone who would catch the eye of a Nascent Soul Realm expert."
Lin Yao glanced at Chen Shu, a slight smile playing on his lips, and shook his head.
That appearance and that tone, combined, were incredibly damaging.
Hearing this, Chen Shu felt a mix of emotions and felt extremely aggrieved: You might as well doubt me. How come I, a powerful expert in the late stage of the Golden Core Realm, have become a lowly nobody in your mouth?
"Alright, Xu Xin, I'll leave this matter to you."
Su Wan nodded and looked at the thin man beside her, who exuded a strange chill.
Upon hearing this, Xu Xin nodded silently.
Seeing this powerful Golden Core cultivator step forward, Lin Yao nodded inwardly, everything was just as he had expected.
His original intention was to use this incident to bring the hidden reincarnators to the surface, exposing them to the sight of various forces and cutting off their path to profit in secret.
As for whether or not these reincarnators can be identified, Lin Yao doesn't care too much.
In his view, reincarnators are unlikely to amount to much in this storyline space and can only drift along with the tide.
Faced with the war machine of the Dragon Abyss Dynasty, they were powerless to resist, at least the reincarnators in the Radiant Moon were.
