Chapter 621 620: Time Reversal

"Stop!"

Yang Xiao roared in anger.

With a flicker of his body, he appeared in front of Lu Fangliang.

He stared coldly at Lu Yunxiao.

He didn't even put up a defense.

He was just waiting to see if this old man would actually dare to strike him.

'This old fool doesn't dare to touch me, but he dares to attack Brother Lu? He's completely shameless!'

Yang Xiao raged internally.

If before, when faced with the Lu Family's Great Elder's questioning, he had maintained an indifferent attitude, even when the man's aura pressed down on him, making it difficult to stand, Yang Xiao still hadn't felt much animosity toward this Great Elder, who had previously spoken up to help him out of a tight spot.

He was merely annoyed by his attitude.

That was why he hadn't been willing to explain much.

He had even been deliberately provocative.

But now...

Seeing Lu Yunxiao attack Lu Fangliang without any regard for right or wrong, any goodwill he once had vanished completely. In its place, a cold fury blazed within him.

And seeing him standing protectively in front of Lu Fangliang, the Great Elder, though furious and wishing he could annihilate Yang Xiao along with him, hesitated when he considered the consequences.

He abruptly retracted the hand he had thrust forward.

"Saint Prince, what is the meaning of this? Are you interfering in the Lu Family's private affairs?"

Lu Yunxiao's face was ashen.

But Yang Xiao just sneered, his face dripping with sarcasm. "The great Great Elder of the Lu Family, a Divine King Level expert, attacking one of his own juniors without distinguishing right from wrong. You've truly wasted all these years of your life!"

"You..."

Lu Yunxiao was incandescent with rage.

"Not convinced? You think you've done nothing wrong? If that's truly the case, then your Lu Family is an even bigger disappointment than I thought."

Yang Xiao's words were heavy.

But they were what he truly thought.

Previously, when the members of the Lu Family allowed Lu Fangcheng to slander him, he had been displeased. But just as when Second Elder Lu's faction had targeted him out of dissatisfaction, Yang Xiao could still understand their position.

After all, as he had said himself, he had caused the Lu Family to suffer a loss.

Their failure to speak up for him, while unpleasant, wasn't some unforgivable crime.

But now...

Even the Lu Family's Great Elder, the true person in power, was so quick to believe others and act against his friend without any investigation.

A Lu Family like this...

...could he really trust them?

Even if he subjugated them, what if they betrayed him in the future?

Naturally, Yang Xiao was simmering with frustration.

But while he was angry, Lu Yunxiao was even angrier.

For him, the great Great Elder of the Lu Family, a Divine King Level expert, to be berated like this by Yang Xiao in front of so many Lu Family disciples was an utter humiliation.

This shame nearly caused the Divine King Level expert to fly into a rampage.

He took a deep breath, barely suppressing the fury in his heart.

He said, "The Saint Prince repeatedly claims that I am not distinguishing right from wrong. Is the truth witnessed by so many pairs of eyes in my Lu Family not the truth in the Saint Prince's eyes?"

"The truth? The 'truth' you believe is nothing but that villain's one-sided story! Just because the Lu Family stood by and watched, you assume it's fact? Have you lost your mind?"

Yang Xiao sneered.

His tone, however, had softened slightly.

He could see that the Lu Family's Great Elder was at the brink of fury, yet even so, he wasn't using his power to suppress him. Instead, he was taking a stance of reasoning with him.

Even if it was only because of his status, the anger in Yang Xiao's heart subsided a little.

'Since he wants to reason, I'll reason with him!'

With a thought, Yang Xiao took a step forward.

He said, "You say Brother Lu is defending me instead of the Lu Family. You think he's lying. In your heart, you even think he's a traitor. You think that because no one else is speaking up, they all believe I'm at fault. Fine. Since you trust the words of a shameless villain so much, I'll show you exactly what kind of person you've put your faith in."

As he finished speaking, Yang Xiao's aura stirred.

This startled Lu Fangcheng.

Before, he had looked down on Yang Xiao, thinking this Saint Prince's cultivation was even lower than his own and that his reputation was undeserved.

But whether it was being casually struck down by Yang Xiao before the True Dragon Nest or seeing Lu Tiansheng killed just now, he now understood that he was no match for Yang Xiao at all.

Even now as a Demigod, the gap was far too wide.

He panicked, thinking Yang Xiao was about to attack him. With a flash, he ducked behind the Great Elder Lu Yunxiao and shouted, "What... what do you think you're doing? You killed my great-grandfather, are you going to kill me to silence me, too?"

Unfortunately for him, Yang Xiao didn't even bother to glance at him.

With a wave of his hand, a surge of the Power of Time billowed out.

Time Reversal.

And it was a large-scale Time Reversal. Normally, with Yang Xiao's own power, such a feat would be absolutely impossible. But now, he had cultivated the Emperor's True Body.

All his power was supplied by the Emperor's True Body.

In an instant, everyone present saw the events that had just transpired.

From Lu Tiansheng's initial arrogance and his demand to enter the Venerable True Dragon Nest, to Lu Fangcheng's malicious provocations toward Lu Fangliang, every detail was displayed for all to see.

Many members of the Lu Family blushed with shame as they watched.

Lu Fangcheng was completely dumbfounded.

He had never imagined things would turn out like this.

He originally thought that as long as he insisted that Saint Prince Yang Xiao and Lu Fangliang were at fault, he could definitely deceive the Great Elder Lu Yunxiao, or at least deceive him temporarily.

But now, everything was replaying before their eyes.

Bit by bit, it was all laid bare before Lu Yunxiao and Elder Long.

Lu Fangcheng knew. He was finished.

However, he didn't resign himself to his fate.

Instead, a surge of even deeper resentment welled up in his heart.

'I have to kill this guy! I can't let him expose me like this! That's right, I need to strike first and kill him!'

In that instant, Lu Fangcheng seemed to lose his mind.

His eyes turned red.

And if one were to look closely, they would see the Dark Night Demonic Qi appearing on his body.

Moreover, this Demonic Qi was rapidly invading his will and influencing his mind.

And the source of this Demonic Qi was obvious.

That's right.

It was precisely because Yang Xiao had used the Power of Time that he had naturally released the Time Divine Pill's influence. And with it, inevitably, came the evil thoughts that would attract the Demonic Qi.

Yang Xiao was well aware of this fact.

He actually wanted to see just how many people harbored malicious intent toward him.

However, the result was a great surprise.

Because, aside from the shameless Lu Fangcheng, not a single other member of the Lu Family held any ill will toward him.

Not even after he had just killed Lu Tiansheng.

Not even after he had just taken the No-fly Zone.

'If they don't bear me any ill will, then why didn't they speak up for me?'

Yang Xiao was somewhat puzzled.

And just then, a figure suddenly lunged at him.

Killing intent radiated fiercely.

It was Lu Fangcheng.
