“Please calm down, Sovereign. This subordinate knows I was wrong.” The beast spirit practitioner spoke with trepidation.

Dantai Xuanzhong turned back to look at Tan Yun, “Continue speaking.”

Tan Yun took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, “Reporting to the sovereign, I have already privately pledged my life to Meng Yi. She is my fiancée and also the closed-door disciple of Wu Hong.”

"As the esteemed chief of the Beast Spirit Lineage and my fiancée's master, he has committed such despicable acts! This is simply inhumane and a shameless cancer to our Huangfu Sacred Sect!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Hong was first stunned, and beads of sweat formed on his forehead!

He thought this matter was known only to himself and his son. He never expected that Tan Yun would find out!

"If this is true..." Dantai Xuanzhong paused, then angrily pointed at the beast spirit practitioner, emphasizing each word, "You are beyond redemption!"

"Sovereign, you must believe me!" The beast spirit practitioner appeared furious, "Sovereign, Tan Yun is framing me! I only know that Tan Yun has crippled my son, but I have no idea about the details!"

"Framing?" Tan Yun scoffed, "Old fool, take a good look at this!"

As he spoke, Tan Yun waved his right arm, immediately condensing memories from his mind using spiritual power to create an image in the air.

In front of the crowd's gaze, Wu Feixiong, who was being tortured, looked dazed and said, "Just two hours ago, I learned that you had entered the Beast Spirit Lineage, so I went to my dad and asked him what to do."

"My dad gave me the dream fantasy elixir, telling me to defile her. When I was caught by you in the act, if you had attacked me, my dad would have ordered me to cripple you."

Then, in the image, Tan Yun casually tossed Wu Feixiong to the ground!

Seeing this scene, the eight chiefs who couldn't wait to see each other suffer naturally chose to kick him when he was down.

"Alas, Chief Wu, how could you commit such an act that enrages both gods and men!" The five soul daoist exclaimed loudly.

"Exactly!" The qiankun daoist said coldly, "As a chief of a lineage, you actually incited your son to defile your disciple. How could you do such a thing! Shameless!"

"Everyone be quiet!" Dantai Xuanzhong shouted sternly, and everyone fell silent.

Dantai Xuanzhong glared at Wu Hong, "Tan Yun has already condensed the memory image, what else do you have to say?"

At this moment of life and death, the beast spirit practitioner calmed down and thought, "No, I must ensure that there are no witnesses!"

They say a tiger doesn't eat its own cubs, but at this moment, the beast spirit practitioner had made up his mind to kill his son!

With his determination, he knelt before Dantai Xuanzhong in a righteous manner, "Sovereign, being upright means not fearing shadows. I say I haven’t done it, then I haven’t."

"Sovereign, you just saw that when my son was answering Tan Yun, he was clearly heavily injured, yet there was not a trace of pain on his face, only a dazed look."

"From my son's expression, it is clear that Tan Yun used some method to control his mind, deliberately creating this memory image. The purpose is obvious; he is trying to harm loyal subjects!"

"I ask the sovereign to see clearly and deliver justice for me, to have this thief Tan Yun executed!"

The beast spirit practitioner's words were filled with emotion, and his acting was evident. "Sovereign, if you do not believe me, you can check my memories right now to see if I ever said such things to my son!"

"If I did, I will commit suicide without you saying a word!"

The beast spirit practitioner had a wronged appearance and even squeezed out a tear, trying to turn the tables!

"Sovereign, do not believe him. Since he could say such things, he must have used elixirs to erase his memory of instructing Wu Feixiong on the entire matter."

"Playing mind games, I will accompany you to the end!" Tan Yun suddenly shouted, "Wu Hong, open your eyes and see who he is!"

Tan Yun waved his right arm, and the coffin in front of him suddenly opened. Then, he used spatial grasping to lift a headless corpse dressed in black robes from the coffin, which floated before the beast spirit practitioner!
