Qin Chen's words fell, and the crowd fell into silence. It must be said that there was indeed some truth in what Qin Chen said.
A few vice hall masters exchanged glances, their eyes flashing as they hesitated.
Qin Chen snorted coldly, "What? I've said this much, and you still don't believe me?"
"As long as you follow me into the Ancient Universe Tower, you'll know whether what I say is true or false. Are you all still afraid of something?"
"Not appropriate." At this moment, the Heavenly Venerable of Inquiry shook his head and said, "This boy's identity is currently unclear. He claims to have ambushed and killed the Blade Perception Venerable. But isn't the Blade Perception Venerable difficult to ambush and kill?
He is just an earth venerable. Even if he ambushed him, how could he possibly injure the Blade Perception Venerable? What if he has some arrangement inside the Ancient Universe Tower and wants to lure us in? That would be dangerous..."
Qin Chen looked at the Heavenly Venerable of Inquiry with a cold smile, "With so many vice hall masters present, are you still afraid of just me?"
The Heavenly Venerable of Inquiry shook his head, "It's not that we're afraid of you. We're just worried that after you enter the Ancient Universe Tower, you might suddenly escape. Within the Ancient Universe Tower, the murderous aura surges and is invisible to the eye. If you escape, that would be a problem. It would be difficult for us to find you again."
Upon hearing this, the soon-to-be Heaven Venerable and others also flashed a hint of concern and nodded, "Indeed, there is such a possibility. This may be your delaying tactic."
"Ridiculous."
Qin Chen was furious in his heart. Were these vice hall masters all idiots?
I have made it so obvious.
The Blood Qi Heaven Venerable also spoke up, "Actually, what the Heavenly Venerable of Inquiry and soon-to-be Heaven Venerable said makes sense. You claim to have ambushed and seriously injured the Blade Perception Venerable before killing him, but with your cultivation level, we find it hard to believe that you can ambush and injure the Blade Perception Venerable. Therefore, your identity as a demon tribe spy is still worth doubting. How could we agree to let you enter the Ancient Universe Tower?"
Many vice hall masters nodded, which was also their concern.
Qin Chen said he had ambushed and severely injured the Blade Perception Venerable before killing him, but they could not imagine how Qin Chen, as an acting vice hall master, could ambush the Blade Perception Venerable.
Even with over fifteen hundred victories in martial arts, in everyone's eyes, it was completely impossible for him to be the opponent of the Blade Perception Venerable.
"Hmph."
Seeing the situation, Qin Chen's eyes flashed with anger.
Buzz! A vast sword aura erupted from within Qin Chen's body. In an instant, a terrifying sword intent centered on Qin Chen surged out.
"What are you doing, Qin Chen?"
"Impudent, stop!"
"Stop him!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Endless sword aura burst forth, and immediately, all the vice hall masters present changed their expressions. They had been prepared, and one by one, their bodies erupted with the might of a heaven venerable.
Rumble!
Like an expansive ocean, the heaven venerable aura pressed down on Qin Chen, overwhelming him with a murderous aura. As long as Qin Chen showed any signs of movement, they would strike down with thunderous force to suppress him.
Fortunately, although the sword aura surged around Qin Chen, it remained contained, trembling ceaselessly in front of him.
"Why are you all so nervous, vice hall masters? Aren't you doubting how I could successfully ambush the Blade Perception Venerable?
You think as an earth venerable, aside from being a demon tribe spy, I cannot possibly have any other means to kill the Blade Perception Venerable. Now, what I am demonstrating is why I could successfully ambush the Blade Perception Venerable."
As soon as Qin Chen finished speaking, the other vice hall masters were taken aback, focusing their attention as they saw Qin Chen raise his hand. A golden small sword suddenly appeared before everyone.
