Capítulo 819: Chapter 819: Clearing the Name

Lu Dai and Gao Zhan appeared here because after the fierce battle between Yang Zhentan and the elders of the three major sects that night and their disappearance, rumors were spread by Cloud Pavilion, and the message was conveyed to the two sect leaders by the experts from East Yue Sect and Heaven and Earth Sect in Jiangnan City.

Although the headquarters of the Star Moon Sect has always been unknown to outsiders, the East Yue Sect and Heaven and Earth Sect have spies in Jiangnan City. Over the years, they naturally discovered the location of the Star Moon Sect headquarters.

This is why Lu Dai and Gao Zhan are at the gate of the Star Moon Sect headquarters resort area.

In a green robe and plain clothes, with white eyebrows like frost and sharp eyes, Lu Dai looked at Ancient Moon River, Lin Fei, and entourage, speaking in a voice like a great bell: “Quickly call out your Star Moon Sect’s Sect Leader He, or we’ll force our way in!”

“Could this be Sect Leader Lu of the East Yue Sect?” Ancient Moon River looked at Lu Dai, with a slight smile on his face.

“That’s right, I am Lu Dai, the Sect Leader of the East Yue Sect.” Lu Dai said loudly, “Quickly call out your Sect Leader He!”

Ancient Moon River calmly said: “Are you referring to He Jing? He is no longer the Sect Leader of the Star Moon Sect.”

“What do you mean?” Sect Leader Gao Zhan of Heaven and Earth Sect, with eyes seemingly capable of seeing through the human heart, looked at Ancient Moon River and questioned.

Ancient Moon River replied indifferently, “Ten years ago, he framed me and usurped the position of sect leader. Now I have returned to the Star Moon Sect, and have removed him from his position as sect leader in front of the entire sect.”

Sect Leader Lu Dai of East Yue Sect and Sect Leader Gao Zhan of Heaven and Earth Sect exchanged glances, then Gao Zhan’s white brows raised slightly, looking at Ancient Moon River and said, “Are you the Star Moon Sect leader who suddenly disappeared ten years ago, whom people call the Array Martial Venerable, Ancient Moon River?”

Ancient Moon River smiled slightly and said: “That’s me. I’m surprised someone still remembers me.”

Gao Zhan said: “Sect Leader Gu, congratulations on reclaiming your position as sect leader. Please hand over Sect Leader He and the elders of both our sects.”

Ancient Moon River solemnly said, “I’m afraid that’s not possible.”

“Why?” Lu Dai frowned slightly, eyes fixed on Ancient Moon River.

Ancient Moon River said: “First, He Jing is a traitor to Star Moon Sect and must not be allowed to escape, so we cannot hand him over to you.”

“Second, your East Yue Sect and Heaven and Earth Sect elders are missing, and as far as I know, they were murdered by the expelled elder Yang Zhentan. Yang Zhentan then framed Star Moon Sect, but in reality, it has nothing to do with Star Moon Sect; it was all Yang Zhentan’s conspiracy.”

“Sect Leader Gu, it seems your Star Moon Sect wants to blame everything on Yang Zhentan. Do you think Sect Leader Gao and I will believe that?” Lu Dai sneered.

Clearly, he did not believe what Ancient Moon River said.

Ancient Moon River frowned and was about to speak when Lin Fei interrupted him and said to Lu Dai: “Sect Leader Lu, if you do not believe what our Sect Leader Gu said, there is someone who can prove that Sect Leader Gu is telling the truth.”

Lu Dai and Gao Zhan turned their gaze towards Lin Fei. Lu Dai said, “Who are you? Who can prove your Sect Leader Gu is telling the truth?”

“I am a friend of Sect Leader Gu. There is someone who initially believed, like you, that Star Moon Sect was the one who killed your elders, but now knows that Star Moon Sect is innocent.” Lin Fei said.

Then, Lin Fei looked towards Leng Ying and Gu Mu and said: “You two, go and invite Elder Bai.”

“Yes.” Leng Ying and Gu Mu agreed.

Lin Fei gave Leng Ying a meaningful glance, and the latter seemed to understand what Lin Fei wanted to convey.

Leng Ying and Gu Mu left, and Lu Dai and Gao Zhan now knew that the person Lin Fei intended to find was Elder Bai.

Their eyes flashed with suspicion because Elder Bai of the Hundred Poison Sect, like their East Yue Sect elder Lu Yue and Heaven and Earth Sect elder Wan Chang, were killed by Star Moon Sect’s Grand Elder Yang Zhentan.

Therefore, Sect Leader Bai from the Hundred Poison Sect would never speak on behalf of Star Moon Sect.

Lu Dai and Gao Zhan wanted to see what kind of trick Lin Fei was playing.

In just a few minutes, Leng Ying and Gu Mu returned with Elder Bai, dressed in a white robe, and three elders from the Hundred Poison Sect.

Lu Dai and Gao Zhan saw Elder Bai and the Hundred Poison Sect members walking out from the Star Moon Sect resort, showing puzzlement on their faces.

Elder Bai approached Lin Fei and Ancient Moon River, respectfully cupping his fists in greeting: “Sect Leader Gu, Young Master Xie, do you require my presence?”

Lin Fei said: “Sect Leader Bai, Sect Leader Lu of East Yue Sect and Sect Leader Gao of Heaven and Earth Sect think that Yang Zhentan murdered the elders of your three major sects, and that it was all Star Moon Sect’s doing. To clear up the misunderstanding and demonstrate Star Moon Sect’s innocence, we hope Sect Leader Bai can explain to them in person.”

Elder Bai nodded and said: “Young Master Xie, rest assured! I will explain it clearly to Sect Leader Lu and Sect Leader Gao.”

Earlier, Leng Ying had hinted to Elder Bai to clear Star Moon Sect’s name.

And Elder Bai, having taken Lin Fei’s elixir laced with poison—his life controlled by Lin Fei—dared not defy Lin Fei’s wishes.

“Sect Leader Lu, Sect Leader Gao, long time no see, are you both well?” Elder Bai looked at Lu Dai and Gao Zhan and said.

Lu Dai and Gao Zhan showed doubt on their faces; was Elder Bai really going to speak on behalf of Star Moon Sect?

“Sect Leader Bai, you’re not going to tell us your Hundred Poison Sect elders weren’t killed by Star Moon Sect’s hand?” Lu Dai looked at Elder Bai, showing a mocking smile.

Elder Bai said: “When I first received the news of Bai Xuetang’s death, I truly believed he died at the hands of Star Moon Sect. However, after my investigation, I discovered that Grand Elder Yang Zhentan killed the elders of our three sects to monopolize the Martial Saint Heart Sutra and framed Star Moon Sect, while he himself captured Qin Yunyue to exchange it with Lin Fei for the Martial Saint Heart Sutra.”

“This is the truth as I know it, so Sect Leader Lu and Sect Leader Gao, we should work together to find Yang Zhentan, the real murderer, and ensure he does not escape.”

“Hahaha, Elder Bai, I almost believed you, but unfortunately, your acting skills aren’t convincing enough!” Lu Dai laughed coldly: “If I’m not mistaken, you have conspired with Star Moon Sect; there must be a plot behind this.”

Gao Zhan also frowned, looking at Elder Bai, he said: “Sect Leader Bai, seeing you speak for Star Moon Sect, your elders must not be dead, and you must have received benefits from Star Moon Sect.”

“Sect Leader Lu, Sect Leader Gao, I am telling the truth. I don’t know what benefits you’re referring to?” Elder Bai angrily retorted.

“What benefits, only you and Star Moon Sect know. Perhaps the Martial Saint Heart Sutra is already in your possession.” Lu Dai said sarcastically.

Elder Bai pointed at Lu Dai and Gao Zhan, too furious to speak: “You…”

“Sect Leader Bai, don’t be angered by them.” At this moment, Lin Fei spoke to console Elder Bai.

Then, Lin Fei looked at Lu Dai and Gao Zhan and said: “Sect Leader Bai has just proven Star Moon Sect’s innocence. If you continue to falsely accuse Star Moon Sect, then Sect Leader Gu will not be lenient with you.”

Lu Dai burst into laughter: “Hahaha, boy, that is the exact words I should say to you. Hand over Yang Zhentan and our elders, and bring out He Jing. We will not speak with your former Sect Leader of Star Moon Sect!”
