Qiao Zheng’s words made Ma Qingshan’s face darken instantly, and he said, ”Brother Qiao, do you really think that our Right Pulse would use the life of Cultivation Immortality disciple Li Yun to frame a slave from your Left Pulse?”

”No, I still stand by my words, any matter requires evidence,” Qiao Zheng maintained a cold demeanor, unruffled.

At this moment, the two Right Pulse disciples sent to Qin Tian’s cultivation place to retrieve Li Yun’s body returned.

The two returned, shaking their heads, saying, ”Elder Ma, no, we didn’t see Brother Li Yun’s body, and we carefully checked—there’s not a trace to be found there.”

”Impossible, Brother Li Yun was clearly murdered by him! This slave dog killed him!” Hou Jin pointed at Qin Tian, shouting.

He looked at Qin Tian and sneered, ”Kid, you didn’t just kill him, did you also hide the body? Humph, now I advise you to quickly hand over Brother Li Yun’s body, otherwise today, even Left Pulse cannot protect you!”

In front of Qiao Zheng, Hou Jin spoke such arrogant words that both Qiao Wenxuan and Liang Xiaoyu gritted their teeth in anger.

Yet Qiao Zheng remained as calm as ever.

”Ha! You’re skillful at slander, talking at length but providing not a shred of evidence, wanting to pin a random crime on me? Ha, your plot to defame Left Pulse is too insidious.”

Facing Hou Jin, Qin Tian coldly laughed, ”You people from Right Pulse have always bullied us at Left Pulse and now you want to escalate things further, aiming to bring a grand show killing people in our territory? Are you trying to annihilate Left Pulse?!”

Qin Tian’s voice was harsh and carried weight with every word.

However, as soon as he spoke, everyone’s face in the square immediately changed dramatically!

Right Pulse wanting to destroy Left Pulse is a taboo on Qilin Mountain!

But this slave, right in front of Left Pulse Sect Leader and Right Pulse Elder, dared to say it!

Qiao Zheng’s always expressionless face now subtly frowned after hearing Qin Tian’s words.

And Ma Qingshan beside him started to sneer, looking at Qiao Zheng, ”Brother Qiao, your Left Pulse slave sure has a silver tongue, ha ha, Right Pulse wanting to destroy Left Pulse? It’s not us saying it; it’s your Left Pulse saying it! A slave!”

With that, Ma Qingshan’s face slightly sank, saying, ”Brother Qiao, this slave is maligning our Right Pulse recklessly, ha, I now need to clear the portal and slaughter him, you won’t mind, right?”

”Brother Ma, what do you mean?” Qiao Zheng’s eyes slightly sharpened.

Ma Qingshan said, ”Nothing really, just whether Li Yun was killed by this slave or not, now I’ve heard the slander from this slave, and want to kill him. Brother Qiao, just a slave. You wouldn’t stop me, would you?”

Ma Qingshan spoke casually, but to Qin Tian, it was incredibly infuriating.

Anyone, you want to kill, can be killed? Too rampant!

But, thinking it over, Qin Tian realized in this Spiritual Domain World, slaves essentially have no human rights, like animals, killed by their masters at will!

With this in mind, Qin Tian raised his eyes, looking towards Qiao Zheng.

Though he was not really a slave, nominally, he was now a slave of Left Pulse. Therefore, Qiao Zheng held Qin Tian’s fate in his hands.

As long as Qiao Zheng agreed with Ma Qingshan, then Ma Qingshan could indeed kill him easily.

”Father...”

When Qiao Zheng remained silent, beside him, Qiao Wenxuan whispered, ”Father, we can’t hand over Qin Tian...”

Liang Xiaoyu also said, ”Master, Qin Tian is now one of our Left Pulse, he did no wrong, we can’t let him die in vain. So...”

”Brother Ma, Left Pulse has only this one slave, I’m afraid I can’t agree with you,” Qiao Zheng hesitated briefly and then responded.

”Ha, you want a slave, do you? I can give you ten slaves! But today, I’m set on Qin Tian’s life!” Ma Qingshan revealed a vicious side, ”Brother Qiao, the truth about Li Yun’s death will eventually come out. If you cover for a mere slave, when Main Vein and Right Pulse blame you, it might be uncomfortable for you.”

”This matter doesn’t require your intervention,” Qiao Zheng said, ”You can forget about taking Left Pulse’s people.”

”Ha, ha, ha, Qiao Zheng, you’re going to tear faces with me Right Pulse for a slave?”

Upon hearing Qiao Zheng’s words, Ma Qingshan finally dropped the facade and showed pride, ”Qiao Zheng, just because I call you brother, don’t think you can leverage your seniority on me. Ha, you have been poisoned for many years, your cultivation not only stagnates but declines, your health deteriorating, Left Pulse will not last under your leadership!”

”So, I advise you, for the sake of the few disciples you have in Left Pulse, don’t oppose me Right Pulse. It’s just a slave, is it worth it for you?”

Ma Qingshan’s voice was soft, heard only by the two.

These words were arrogant but spoken truthfully.

Qiao Zheng indeed was poisoned long ago, barely saving his life but his cultivation could never improve, only decline.

This is why Qiao Zheng, though one of the three Sect Leaders on Qilin Mountain, is underestimated by most elders.

Now, Qiao Zheng doesn’t even have certainty to defeat Ma Qingshan.

In the past, Ma Qingshan and most elders from Main Vein were often confrontational with Qiao Zheng.

Each time, Qiao Zheng chose to remain expressionless to ignore or slightly compromise, diffusing the situation.

But this time, when Ma Qingshan thought Qiao Zheng would obediently hand over slave Qin Tian, Qiao Zheng’s words made him widen his eyes: ”Qin Tian is not a slave, he is a Cultivation Immortality disciple, newly joined to our Left Pulse.”

Whoosh!

These words shocked the whole place.

Qin Tian, while somewhat expecting it, felt inexplicably tense and immensely moved upon hearing Qiao Zheng’s unhurried words.

To save his life, Qiao Zheng was willing to lower himself to accept him as a ”slave” disciple! This broke the societal norms of Spiritual Domain!

”Ha, ha, ha...”

”Ha, ha, ha...”

After Qiao Zheng spoke, Right Pulse disciples covered their mouths, laughing one by one.

Ma Qingshan equally sneered, ”Ha, to save him, you didn’t hesitate to accept him as a disciple of your Left Pulse? Ha ha ha... When did Left Pulse become so impoverished as to take a slave as a disciple? Is there truly no one left?”

”This is Left Pulse’s concern, I said, stay out of it!” Repeatedly provoked, Qiao Zheng’s face finally showed a hint of anger, his voice carrying a warning:

”Ma Qingshan, regardless, I’m still the Sect Leader of Left Pulse. As long as Qin Tian is my Left Pulse disciple, while I’m still here, you won’t harm a hair on him!”
