"You Call Me the Villain? Your Slander Turns Out to Be True! - Chapter 6: If You Call It, Will It Respond?"

Chapter 6: If You Call It, Will It Respond?

The sudden appearance of a Saint, declaring her protection over Qin Luo, left everyone in Tai Xu Holy Ground stunned.

Especially Liu Changhe, whose expression turned particularly grim. The Saint-level cultivator Han Yue was at the mid-stage of the Saint Realm, slightly stronger than him. If a conflict were to arise with Han Yue, even though this was his home ground, it would still be an extremely troublesome situation.

Moreover, this was his territory—if destroyed, it would mean the loss of his foundation.

"Damn it, how does Qin Luo have a Saint backing him!" Ye Chen clenched his fists tightly, his eyes filled with unwillingness.

He had been so close to killing Qin Luo, but now, an unexpected obstacle had appeared, making him feel deeply frustrated!

"No way, Master, you must think of something! We have to kill Qin Luo! If he doesn't die, I won't be able to sleep!" Ye Chen pleaded in his mind.

At first, he simply wanted to kill Qin Luo, but now, fear began to creep into his heart.

He was afraid.

Because Qin Luo's methods were far too bizarre.

How could Qin Luo have mastered the Four Symbols Sword Technique when Ye Chen had stolen it and made sure there were no backups? Even if Qin Luo had somehow obtained the technique earlier or from somewhere else, that could still be explained.

But... the Tai Xu Bell was clearly inside his ring, so how did Qin Luo end up with a perfectly intact Tai Xu Bell?

All of this shrouded Qin Luo in mystery, leaving Ye Chen unable to see through him.

From within the ring, a noble and elegant woman exuded an aura of regality and beauty beyond compare. She softly opened her crimson lips and said indifferently, "Don't worry, Tai Xu Holy Ground isn't as simple as it seems. He won't escape so easily."

These words provided some comfort to Ye Chen's troubled mind.

Qin Luo stared at Han Yue, utterly baffled. He searched his memories but found no connection between himself and this Han Yue.

Why would she suddenly appear to save him?

Was it because of his good looks?

Looking at her deeply wrinkled face, Qin Luo couldn't help but shiver violently.

"System, did you arrange for this person?"

[The System is not a Saint Mover; it is merely an auxiliary system.]

Alright, so it wasn't the Saint Mover.

Liu Changhe leapt up, standing opposite Han Yue. He spoke in a low voice, "Saint Han Yue, today's matter is an internal affair of our Tai Xu Holy Ground. Why are you interfering?"

Han Yue sneered coldly, "Whether it's your family matter or not is none of my concern. But what concerns me is the matter of Saints."

"But today, this Saint will protect Qin Luo!"

Liu Changhe's expression darkened like storm clouds. He asked sternly, "Give me a reason, Saint Han Yue!"

Han Yue responded calmly, "Qin Luo is the senior brother of my personal disciple. Is this reason sufficient?"

Senior brother of her personal disciple?

"You mean Wan Ning?"

An image of a woman appeared in Qin Luo's mind—pure as moonlight, her deep starry eyes, slender figure, flowing hair, dressed in simple yet ethereal robes, emitting a cold and mysterious aura.

The previous host had always treated her like a younger sister, doting on her dearly.

Just moments ago, Qin Luo had wondered why Shen Wan Ning hadn't shown up. It turned out she had gone to fetch reinforcements.

When did she become the personal disciple of Han Yue?

"That's right. Your junior sister Shen Wan Ning is now my direct disciple. She begged me to save your life."

"Today, this Saint saves your life. In the future, you and Shen Wan Ning shall have no further ties!"

Han Yue's resolute voice echoed in Qin Luo's ears, causing his expression to become incredibly complex.

In the previous host's life, two women held significant places in his heart—one was Shen Wan Ning, and the other was Liu Ruyan.

For Shen Wan Ning, he only felt sibling affection, while for Liu Ruyan, he had been utterly infatuated.

In Qin Luo's view, Liu Ruyan, that despicable woman, didn't even come close to matching a single toe of Shen Wan Ning. In terms of appearance, Shen Wan Ning was superior, and her figure was undoubtedly better than Liu Ruyan's.

Choosing a woman, why would one pick Liu Ruyan over Shen Wan Ning? Pure idiocy!

"Lord Liu Changhe, can you give me some face?" Han Yue Lin Huashuang looked at Liu Changhe and asked gravely.

"What if I say no?"

"Then we'll fight!" Lin Huashuang replied indifferently.

"The Saint has promised Shen Wan Ning that she must take Qin Luo away. If you don't believe me, try to stop me!"

Her arrogant and domineering attitude made Liu Changhe feel suffocated.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, if he so easily agreed to Lin Huashuang's demand, where would his dignity stand?

"If Saint Han Yue insists on taking someone from my Tai Xu Holy Ground, then let's see what kind of confidence you have!"

Boom!

Liu Changhe leapt up, soaring above the clouds, shouting down at Lin Huashuang below, "If you can withstand three of my attacks, I might consider it!"

Lin Huashuang inwardly sneered, immediately seeing through Liu Changhe's thoughts. "Face is worth nothing. However, since you want it, why not give it to you?"

She stepped onto the air, rising into the sky.

The battle between Saints drew the attention of nearly everyone in Tai Xu Holy Ground.

Qin Luo thought about using this opportunity to escape, but Ye Chen kept a close eye on him.

"Elder Tu, Qin Luo is trying to run!"

Tu Shouyi's gaze immediately locked onto Qin Luo, and he sneered, "Qin Luo, if you dare to move another step, I'll crush you on the spot!"

Qin Luo retorted defiantly, "Old man, do you dare? When Saint Han Yue comes down later, she'll slap you back to the west! One for one, I'm not losing anything!"

"You!" Tu Shouyi was almost choked by anger. Truthfully, he didn't dare!

Han Yue's reputation was immense here. If she targeted him, Tu Shouyi would surely meet his doom.

The battle in the sky began quickly and ended just as swiftly.

After Liu Changhe landed with a grim expression, he spoke solemnly, "Fine, you may take Qin Luo today!"

This was an indirect admission of defeat. His earlier challenge of having the opponent withstand three attacks was merely a way to save face. His strength was weaker than hers!

"However, the Tai Xu Bell must remain!" Liu Changhe's gaze fell on Qin Luo as he spoke gravely.

Before Lin Huashuang could respond, Qin Luo preempted her.

"You say it stays, so it stays?"

"It's the holy artifact of our Tai Xu Holy Ground!" Tu Shouyi interjected.

"Do you say so?" Qin Luo activated the Tai Xu Bell, which hovered above his head, and said indifferently, "Do you call it, and will it respond?"

Lin Huashuang took a serious look at Qin Luo for the first time. This Qin Luo was even more audacious than her!

But she had the qualifications to be arrogant—what did Qin Luo have? A mouth that refused to admit defeat?

"Heh..." A cold laugh rang out.

Liu Changhe's eyes immediately lit up.

"Today, no one leaves!"

A wizened elder slowly emerged from the depths of Tai Xu Holy Ground. Upon seeing the elder, everyone immediately bowed respectfully, "Greetings, Ancestor!"

Liu Changhe was no exception, bowing deeply.

Lin Huashuang's expression turned gloomy. She whispered into Qin Luo's ear, "Boy, seek your own fortune today. This Saint has done all she could."

After the elder appeared, his gaze fell upon Qin Luo, and he spoke indifferently, "As the Holy Son of our Tai Xu Holy Ground, how dare you steal our holy artifact and betray us? Who gave you the courage?!"

Boom! An overwhelmingly powerful aura pressed down on Qin Luo, many times stronger than Liu Changhe's earlier display.

Qin Luo was about to say, "My identity as the prince of the Great Qin Empire gives me the courage..."

But before he could open his mouth, a majestic voice rang out from outside.

"Great Qin Empire's Four Directions Marquis Fang Xing has arrived to pay respects!"
