"What is this?"
Everyone looked at Wu Chen with confusion in their eyes. What exactly was this black flame and why was it black
Most of them had not experienced the Xuan Mo Rebellion two years ago, so naturally they had no idea what the black flame was.
However, those who had experienced that incident stood up one by one, looking at Wu Chen with fear in their eyes, and even their bodies couldn't help but tremble.
"Hell's Dark Lotus, this is the Hell's Dark Lotus."
"What? This is Hell Lotus. Are you sure?"
"Yes, two years ago, I saw the Hell Lotus with my own eyes. It was exactly the black flame."
"So, the Hell Lotus is really on him. I thought Master Wuji was talking nonsense."
"How can Master Wuji, who is of such high status, talk nonsense?"
"That's true."
Everyone was shocked and in an uproar. Originally, when Master Wuji said that Wu Chen was a demon and a thief and that the Hell Lotus was in his body, they did not believe it. However, after being tested by the Heavenly Grade Spiritual Treasure Huoli Zhong, its true form was immediately revealed. It turned out that such an evil thing as the Hell Lotus was indeed in his body.
At Beichen Academy, everyone's face changed drastically. They looked at Wu Chen in shock, as if they had never seen him before.
Master Tianchi's face darkened. He did not believe a word of what Master Wuji said before. In his opinion, the reason why Master Wuji was looking for trouble with Wu Chen was simply because the other party took the championship position that originally belonged to their Taiyi Sect. He deliberately found excuses to discredit Wu Chen and take back their championship position. However, he did not expect that the Hell Lotus was really on Wu Chen's body.
"It's over, it's over."
Yue Qingzhu collapsed completely. If Wu Chen didn't show the Hell Lotus, even Master Wuji, no matter how powerful he was, would not be able to do anything to him. However, it happened that the Taiyi Sect had a heavenly magic treasure that forced the Hell Lotus out of his body and made it manifest. Now, even the Beichen Academy might not be able to save him.
"Hell Lotus, do you want to kill me?"
Wu Chen roared in his heart. He never expected that at this critical moment, the Hell Lotus would break free from its chain and come out of his body. This really cost him his life.
"Not me."
Inside the body, the Hell Lotus denied it.
"It's not you or what?"
Wu Chen didn't believe it. He was well aware of the cunning and viciousness of the Hell Lotus, so he had always been on guard against it. He would never use the power of the Hell Lotus unless it was absolutely necessary.
Hell Lotus defended: "It really wasn't me. I don't know what happened."
"Is it really not you?"
Hell Lotus said: "What good will it do me if I kill you?"
This is Taiyi Sect, and no one present will let it go. Once it leaves Wu Chen's body, it will be immediately killed by these peerless powerful people present, and there will be no hope of survival.
"It's not you, so what's going on?"
Wu Chen looked at the Hell Lotus carefully and seriously for a long time. It didn't seem to be lying, because if he died, it would not be of any benefit to it. In an instant, it would wipe out all the people from the Holy Land of Immortals present.
"How would I know what happened? Maybe it has something to do with that flame."
The ball of fire before was so powerful that even it felt palpitations. The heavenly spiritual treasure was indeed extraordinary.
Wu Chen's face darkened. He had not expected that a heavenly-grade spiritual treasure would be so magical that it could force out the Hell Lotus. If he had known this would happen, he should have directly used the Demon-Suppressing Stele to resist the Fire Bell. The Demon-Suppressing Stele was a peerless magic weapon carefully crafted by Xuan's father. Although it was not a heavenly-grade spiritual treasure, it was not far away. If it had been there, perhaps the result would have been different.
However, it was obvious that it was too late to say anything now. The Hell Lotus had already appeared. How to solve the current dilemma was his primary concern.
"Hahaha, Master, I wonder what you want to say now?" Master Wuji laughed.
Master Xuanming sighed. To be honest, he absolutely did not believe that the Hell Lotus was on Wu Chen's body. However, now that the matter was right in front of him, he had no choice but to believe it.
“Tianchi, what should we do now?”
Master Tianchi thought for a moment and said, "Xuanming, don't be anxious. This matter has not been clarified yet. Let's ask Wu Chen first and see how he answers."
The appearance of such an evil creature as the Hell Lotus on Wu Chen's body was something that none of them had expected. There were many things that they had not figured out yet, and before they figured it out, they did not want to jump to conclusions, because Wu Chen was the most outstanding talent in their Beichen Academy and had won a lot of glory for their Beichen Academy. If they lost such a person, it would be a huge blow to their Beichen Academy.
Master Xuanming then turned his gaze to Wu Chen and asked, "Wu Chen, tell me the truth, how come the Hell Lotus is on your body?"
Wu Chen remained silent. Only he understood that the reason why Master Wuji targeted him was simply because he knew the secret of their Taiyi Sect and wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife. So, whether there was the Hell Lotus or not, no matter how he explained, it was useless and could not change Master Wuji's determination to get rid of him.
"Let me tell you."
At this time, Yue Qingzhu took the initiative to step forward. She had an unshirkable responsibility for the matter of the Hell Lotus. If it weren't for her, the Hell Lotus would never have entered Wu Chen's body.
Everyone's eyes shifted to Yue Qingzhu. She was a disciple of Linglong Xianzun, the Holy Lord of Tianxuan Holy Land. She was also the last eyewitness to the incident. She should know the whole story.
However, she had said before that the Hell Lotus was not on Wu Chen's body, but the current test results were beyond their expectations. The Hell Lotus was on Wu Chen's body, so what she said now was inevitably a little suspicious.
"Qingzhu, what is going on here?" The Supreme Elder of Tianxuan Holy Land couldn't help but ask.
Yue Qingzhu said: "Grand Elder, please forgive me for deceiving you before."
The Grand Elder sighed. Now, even a fool could see that what Yue Qingzhu had said before was definitely problematic.
Yue Qingzhu looked at everyone, pondered for a moment, and said: "The truth of the matter is actually like this."
