Chapter 6669 Chaos!

"Shut up!"

Mo Qianzai glared at Xiao Chen and roared angrily. The blood lotus beneath his feet emitted a dazzling blood light, and his killing intent grew even more fierce.

"Mo Qianzai, you owe me an explanation, and an explanation to the Song family!"

Song Qi took a step forward, and at this moment, the light on the blood talisman in her hand had slowly dimmed.

But the accusations and the truth just now were like sparks thrown into boiling oil, igniting suspicion and unease within the Holy Heaven Sect.

“Song Qingyang… Before he perished, he privately told me that there was something strange deep within the Sacred Ruins, but at the time I didn’t think much of it…”

The head of a powerful family who was on good terms with the Song family and also had a strong member of his family in seclusion in the Sacred Ruins had a change of expression and muttered to himself.

"My great-uncle also passed away shortly after entering the Sacred Ruins, leaving no trace of his body, only the message 'Pursue the Great Dao'..."

Another elder from a prominent family spoke, his voice trembling.

More and more whispers rose up within the Holy Heaven Cult camp.

Those once fervent and resolute gazes were now tinged with surprise, anger, and the chill of betrayal.

"Ancestor!"

Seeing that Song Ming was filled with murderous intent but did not make a move immediately, Song Qi became anxious and shouted again.

"Before my father perished, he sealed this message with his remnant soul, hoping that one day we could expose their true colors! Their so-called 'Sacred Ruins Secret Techniques' and 'Source of Immortality' are nothing but a deception! They are exploiting the essence of our bloodline to nourish themselves, and even... to nourish the extraterrestrial demons!"

"Shut up! You're spreading rumors and misleading people!"

Shen Jiuyou finally spoke, his voice hoarse and dry, like two pieces of rusty iron rubbing against each other.

His gray robe billowed, and his seemingly cloudy eyes suddenly flashed with a terrifying light as he stared intently at Song Qi.

"Song Qi, do you know what a grave crime it is to slander the Holy Sect and disrupt the morale of the army? Considering that your Song family has served the Holy Sect for generations, step down now, hand over the forged blood talisman, and I will temporarily waive the charges!"

"Forgery?"

Song Ming suddenly stepped forward and stood in front of Song Qi.

His originally hunched body straightened up, and his deep and abyss-like aura erupted like a volcano, subtly rivaling Shen Jiuyou!

"Shen Jiuyou, I have no doubt about the soul power fluctuations in this blood talisman. That is Qingyang's aura! I watched him grow up, and I will never forget his soul imprint until my death!"

Song Ming's voice was like muffled thunder, exploding in everyone's hearts.

"Today, you must give me, the Song family, and all the followers of the Holy Sect an explanation! Is what Qingyang said true or false? What secrets are hidden in the deepest part of the Holy Ruins!"

As Song Ming pressed for answers, the expressions of the other powerful figures from other families who emerged from the Sacred Ruins also subtly changed.

"Song Ming, with a formidable enemy at hand, you actually listen to the one-sided words of a junior and question the very foundation of the Holy Sect?"

Seeing this, Mo Qianzai knew he couldn't let the doubts spread any further; he had to act decisively and cut the Gordian knot.

He suppressed his shock and anger and shouted sternly.

"Xiao Chen and the others are right in front of us. They are the mortal enemies who want to destroy my Holy Sect and slaughter your people!"

"Isn't this infighting exactly what they want? Any questions, I, the leader, will give you and everyone an explanation after we've wiped out all the invaders!"

His gaze swept over the powerful members of the aristocratic families whose expressions wavered, his tone softening, yet carrying an undeniable authority.

"Everyone, do not forget that your fate is intertwined with that of the Holy Church! If the Holy Church is destroyed today, do you think Xiao Chen and the Azure Emperor will let you and your families go? At this moment, only by uniting as one and fighting against the external enemy can we have a glimmer of hope!"

Mo Qianzai's words were like a bucket of cold water poured over the heads of many powerful members of aristocratic families who had some ideas.

Yes, no matter what, they are all members of the Holy Heaven Sect. If they lose, Xiao Chen and the others will definitely not let them go!

Just as everyone was lost in their own thoughts, Song Ming coldly spoke up: "Death is not scary, but how you die is..."

"Song Ming, if you continue to be so stubborn, don't blame me for disregarding our past relationship... Holy Sect disciples, listen to my command! Anyone who shakes the morale of the army or retreats in the face of battle will be considered a traitor and executed without exception!"

Shen Jiuyou's gray robe fluttered in the wind, and his terrifying aura rose again, locking onto Song Ming, as if he were about to eliminate any dissent at the slightest provocation.

He had to stabilize the situation immediately, even if it meant using the most drastic measures.

Mo Qianzai's eyes were also cold as he secretly transmitted his voice to several elders, preparing to use swift and decisive measures to first suppress the Song family and deter others with ulterior motives.

"I think, old leader, you should give us an explanation first."

Suddenly, a clear, cold voice slowly rang out.

"Ji Xuansi?"

"She and Song Qi have a very good relationship. Is she standing up for the Song family now?"

“That’s normal. Don’t forget, she’s the Holy Maiden’s grandmother, and Song Qi is the Holy Maiden’s master…”

Many powerful figures looked at the newcomer and whispered.

Shen Jiuyou and Mo Qianzai looked at Ji Xuansi, their hearts sinking at the same time, a sense of foreboding rising within them.

“Ji Xuansi, as I just said, I will give an explanation after this battle.”

Mo Qianzai said in a deep voice.

"Now is the time to unite against a common enemy..."

"Unite against external enemies? Yes, this is a critical moment for the Holy Church, but I don't want to be kept in the dark and die in battle without knowing what's going on!"

Ji Xuansi's voice was also colder and more stern.

“I’ve been inside the Sacred Ruins too, and I sensed something was wrong… Over the years, countless brilliant talents have entered the Sacred Ruins, especially the Ruins Sea, only to die there in a rather mysterious way! Song Qingyang is neither the first nor the last!”

Ji Xuansi's words caused another uproar in the audience.

"Ji Xuansi! Do you know what you're saying?!"

Seeing the situation, which was almost stable, fall into chaos again, Shen Jiuyou's expression changed drastically.

"Of course I know!"

Ji Xuansi met Shen Jiuyou's gaze without any fear.

She knew very well that at this time, someone needed to step forward.

Otherwise, the Holy Heaven Sect wouldn't be able to descend into chaos!

One Song Qi, or even the Song family, is not enough!

Add her and the Ji family, and it's about right!

"Song Qingyang of the Song family, Xu Jiachang of the Xu family, Ouyang Jing of the Ouyang family..."

Ji Xuan thought of one name after another, while her gaze swept over the families to which these names belonged.

"They all died in the Sacred Ruins. Don't you want to seek justice for them and get an explanation?!"

Hearing Ji Xuansi's words, the expressions of many powerful figures changed again. They had already had some doubts, but now that they heard her say this, it was hard for them to remain unmoved.

"enough!"

Before anyone could say anything, Mo Qianzai roared angrily.

"I understand, Ji Xuansi. You and Song Qi betrayed the Holy Sect and wanted to take this opportunity to destroy it, is that right? If it's really as you say, then why did I stop the Blood Ancestor when he wanted to sacrifice himself at the Myriad Immortal Ruins? I risked my life to suppress him!"
