Against The Sky Supreme

Hearing Tan Yun's words, Xin Bingshuan and Miao Qingqing, who were flying towards the Inner Sect using the invisibility technique, were also taken aback.

They had thought that Ji Matchless would have the upper hand, but it seemed the situation had turned against her.

As the news spread, the inner sect disciples began to murmur among themselves, their expressions a mixture of shock and disbelief.

"Is it true? Ji Matchless, who is renowned for her strength, was defeated and is being hunted down?"

"That can't be! She is a direct disciple, and Tan Yun is just a normal disciple."

"But if Tan Yun is able to chase Ji Matchless, it means he must have some hidden strength!"

The atmosphere was charged with excitement and speculation, as everyone tried to piece together what had transpired.

Some inner sect disciples began to feel sympathy for Ji Matchless, while others were intrigued by Tan Yun's unexpected rise.

"Could it be that Tan Yun has mastered the Divine Power? Or perhaps he has some secret weapon?"

The discussions continued, and the air was thick with anticipation, waiting to see how this shocking confrontation would unfold.

At this moment, Huangfu Zhong was flying swiftly towards Tan Yun, showing no concern whatsoever that Ji Matchless would betray him.

However, Ji Matchless's next statement made him furious, turning his face red with anger.

She decisively shouted, "It was our inner sect law enforcement elder Huangfu Zhong who ordered me and Duan Ru to kill you!"

As soon as this statement was made, the hundreds of thousands of inner sect disciples looked at each other in disbelief.

"Shut up!" Huangfu Zhong roared, hovering a hundred feet behind Tan Yun, angrily pointing at Ji Matchless. "You are talking nonsense and slandering this law enforcement elder. According to palace rules, you should be executed!"

"Hehe." Tan Yun coldly sneered in his heart, suspecting that Huangfu Zhong would attempt to kill Ji Matchless to silence her next.

Tan Yun immediately transmitted a message to Ji Matchless, ordering her, "Follow my command and refute him. Then condense the memory image of his order for you and Duan Ru to kill me."

After speaking, Tan Yun turned to Huangfu Zhong and said, "Elder Law Enforcement, I believe that Ji Matchless's attempt on my life has nothing to do with you."

"After all, the incident with your son was entirely his fault. As the law enforcement elder of the Four Arts Star Domain, how could you possibly violate the law and send someone to kill me?"

"Such an action would only lead to your own death penalty!"

Did Tan Yun want to reveal the truth to everyone?

No!

He really wanted to, but he knew he was truly too weak in front of Huangfu Zhong!

Now was not the time to tear the façade completely. If he pushed Huangfu Zhong too hard, the elder could easily pin a crime on him and kill him on the spot, leaving him with no way out.

Thus, it was clear that Tan Yun was not naive.

Seeing Tan Yun speak this way, Huangfu Zhong also breathed a sigh of relief, "Of course! This law enforcement elder is the embodiment of justice. How could I secretly order someone to kill you?"

"Moreover, Tan Yun, regarding the matter between you and my son, this law enforcement elder has already clarified that it was my son who was at fault."

"According to palace rules, even if you had killed my son at that time, it would have been his own doing, and I must thank you for showing mercy to him."

Huangfu Zhong's heartfelt words and gesture of deep bowing won him the respect of the watching inner sect disciples, who spoke up:

"Senior Sister Ji has gone too far in slandering our law enforcement elder!"

"Exactly, our law enforcement elder is just and fair; how could he possibly violate the law?"

Listening to the disciples, Tan Yun sneered inwardly, "Huangfu Zhong is indeed cunning; today, I prioritize saving my life and will take your head another day."

With determination, Tan Yun discreetly transmitted to Ji Matchless, ordering her, "Start refuting this old fool!"

Following Tan Yun's command, Ji Matchless loudly stated, "Junior brothers and sisters, do not believe his nonsense! He ordered me and Duan Ru to kill Tan Yun!"
