Dethroned from the Imperial Throne, Why Are You So Anxious When I Don't Want It Anymore? - Chapter 150

Chapter 150: Ye Yu Must Die

A sudden change left Ye Yu stunned.

The scene before him was so familiar. In his past life, Ye Qingling had stood before him like this, only instead of a back, it was the cold light emanating from the long sword in Ye Qingling’s hand.

Jing Shuang came to his senses at this moment, his face darkening as he quickly reached out to stop Ji Wuming’s spiritual energy.

“Old scoundrel, you’ve gone too far! You dare attack my Nine Spirits Sword Sect disciple right in front of me! ”

At this moment, Ye Qingling also hurried to Ye Yu’s side, saying, “Brother Wangchen, are you alright? ”

Ye Yu frowned at Ye Qingling, his eyes full of confusion.

Ye Qingling was also stunned, and now, recalling it, she couldn’t help but feel a chill down her spine. A moment ago, her body seemed to be out of her control.

Staring blankly at Ye Yu, she recalled Xu Wangchen’s urging these past few days. Although she knew Xu Wangchen had ulterior motives, she saw the shadow of Ye Yu in Xu Wangchen.

Ye Yu had been like that to her too—strict, but warmer than Xu Wangchen.

Thinking this, Ye Qingling quickly shook her head, a wry smile on her lips. Was she missing Ye Yu?

Ye Yu wasn’t interested in Ye Qingling’s inner monologue, instead turning to the two people facing off in mid-air, Ji Wuming and another.

“The culprit has appeared, old man, I can’t pretend I didn’t see it. The Glass Sword matter, Xu Wangchen has to give me an explanation, no matter what! ” Ji Wuming said forcefully.

But several people from the Nine Spirits Sword Sect knew that Ji Wuming intended to take Ye Yu away.

If Ye Yu had died, it would have been fine, but now that he was alive, they absolutely could not let him leave.

The talent and abilities Ye Yu displayed would one day become a major threat, and might even become the fuse that destroyed the Nine Spirits Sword Sect.

But right now, Ji Wuming was clearly planning to act like a scoundrel. Even if Han Yi were here, she probably couldn’t completely stop this old scoundrel.

They also knew the value of a living Ye Yu. If it were them, for such a promising young man, they would probably also not hesitate to offend the Alchemy Alliance.

As they were thinking this, the Nine Spirits Sect Master saw Ye Xuan, and immediately remembered something. He raised the corner of his mouth and said, “Elder Ji, Ye Xuan was also in the Zi Xiao Sword Tomb that day. He knows clearly how the Glass Sword came to be. Ye Xuan, tell us, was this Glass Sword stolen by Wangchen? ”

Ji Wuming’s expression changed slightly, but that was all. He was already prepared to act like a scoundrel, and even ten more witnesses wouldn’t change that.

Ye Xuan was taken aback, then saw Ren Xiaoyao constantly winking at him. Coupled with the fact that the Nine Spirits Sect Master had asked him to go to Sword Peak while banishing Xu Wangchen to the Forbidden Zone, it was clear that they wanted Xu Wangchen dead. He immediately understood.

Xu Wangchen, Xu Wangchen, it seems you really don’t know how to behave. Even the Sect Master doesn’t want to protect you.

In Ye Xuan’s view, the situation was clear. The Nine Spirits Sect Master and the others wanted Xu Wangchen dead. But no matter what, Xu Wangchen was still a Direct Disciple. It wouldn’t be appropriate for him to do it himself, as was evident from banishing Xu Wangchen to the Forbidden Zone.

But handing him over now would damage the Nine Spirits Sword Sect’s reputation, so they brought him in as a witness.

Believing he understood the higher-ups’ intentions, Ye Xuan raised the corner of his mouth and said, “Reporting to Sect Master, I did not see Xu Wangchen receive the Glass Sword’s acknowledgment in the Sword Tomb that day. As for how he obtained the Glass Sword, I do not know. ”

After hearing Ye Xuan’s words, the faces of the Nine Spirits Sect Master and the others turned completely black.

Ji Wuming almost laughed out loud. An unexpected surprise! Ye Xuan was really a lucky star!

“What? You all heard that! This Xu Wangchen stole our Sect’s treasure! In terms of both sentiment and reason, hand him over to me! After I’ve figured out what happened, I’ll return him to you! ” Ji Wuming’s confidence grew even stronger.

Seeing this, Ye Xuan felt secretly delighted. He looked at Ye Yu with disdain, as if looking at a dead man.

But as he stared, Ye Xuan suddenly felt a chill down his spine. He turned his head and saw the Nine Spirits Sect Master and the others looking at him with dark faces, including Han Yi.

Ye Xuan was somewhat bewildered. He had clearly framed Xu Wangchen according to the Sect Master’s instructions. Why did the situation seem so wrong now?

At this moment, the Nine Spirits Sect Master really wanted to slap Ye Xuan. It was clearly Ji Wuming being unreasonable, but with Ye Xuan’s words, the situation instantly reversed!

Ye Qingling’s face turned pale with fright, and she became flustered. If Xu Wangchen was really taken away by the Zi Xiao Sword Sect, the consequences were unimaginable. Stealing the Sect’s treasure, it would be difficult to survive.

“No, today, Ye Yu will not leave the Nine Spirits Sword Sect alive! ” After a long silence, the Nine Spirits Sect Master gritted his teeth and said.

Right now, he didn’t care about the Sect’s reputation anymore, his attitude firm.

As soon as his words fell, the entire Nine Spirits Sword Sect fell silent, everyone looking at Xu Wangchen standing in mid-air in disbelief.

The name Ye Yu would not be unfamiliar to any disciple of the Nine Spirits Sword Sect—the Zi Xiao Sword Sect Saint Son!

But who would have thought that their Sect’s most famous genius disciple was actually another Sect’s Saint Son?!

Ye Xuan and Ye Qingling were even more astonished, raising their heads to look at Ye Yu in disbelief.

Seeing this, Ye Yu chuckled softly. Since it couldn’t be hidden any longer, he took off the Concealing Veil from his face, revealing his true appearance.

Looking at that familiar face, it was as if thunder struck Ye Qingling’s mind. Xu Wangchen was Ye Yu, Xu Wangchen was Ye Yu!

This is impossible! How could this be possible!

Her fantasies were shattered in an instant, Ye Qingling’s pretty face turned pale, and she stumbled and fell to the ground, her heart filled with mixed emotions.

The words she had spoken to Xu Wangchen flashed through her mind like a slideshow.

Especially that line, “Will you be my older brother in the future, Ling’er? ”

Now, it sounded so ironic.

Compared to Ye Qingling, Ye Xuan’s face was even more unsightly.

Now he understood why the Nine Spirits Sect Master and the others had looked at him with those eyes after he said those words. Now he also understood that he had completely misunderstood.

“Ye Yu!!! ” Ye Xuan roared, his eyes bloodshot, full of resentment. A feeling of being tricked surged through his heart, and a deep sense of humiliation arose.

The sudden humiliation caused him to lose his composure.

He couldn’t accept it. All this time, he had been like a clown!

Not only did he repeatedly claim to become sworn brothers with the other party, but he also personally brought him to the Nine Spirits Sword Sect.

But soon, Ye Xuan came to his senses. This was actually good news. Judging by today’s situation, Ye Yu was surely going to die!

Sure enough, as soon as Ye Xuan’s thought fell, beams of spiritual light soared into the sky, surrounding Ye Yu.

A terrifying aura blotted out the sun!
