Chapter 160

In the great hall, the First Elder remained silent. He had kept his peace, maintaining a relatively neutral stance. While he certainly admired Ye Qing’s talent, the existence of Nie Dutian was equally impossible to ignore. If Ye Qing had only killed the three Core Disciples of the Tianquan Peak who were in the Tianwu Realm, the matter might have been negotiable. Given Ye Qing’s unparalleled talent, it was unlikely he would face severe punishment. But the problem was that Ye Qing had killed Nie Liufeng. That made the situation difficult to handle. Currently, Nie Liufeng’s older brother, Nie Dutian, was still in seclusion. However, Nie Dutian was already aware of the incident. At the time, he had projected his divine soul, and he would surely be coming out of seclusion soon. When that time came, Nie Dutian would undoubtedly arrive to demand justice, and if Venerable Feiyun had only ordered Ye Qing to reflect on his actions behind closed doors, it would be a difficult outcome to justify. Nie Dutian was one of the most outstanding prodigies of the younger generation in the Huasheng Sect, ranking third on the Fengyun List. His value and status were self-evident.
