Peerless Little Immortal Doctor

Chapter 2216: Chapter 2221: Schemes and Framing

Sun Jie stared at the two people confusedly.

Because he couldn’t understand a single word.

What does it mean to put all the blame on Xia Liu?

What does it mean that someone must die?

Xia Liu is already dead, how to put any blame on him?

Just as Sun Jie was bewildered,

suddenly, a dull sound broke the atmosphere.

Splurt!

Sun Jie’s eyes widened, and he slowly lowered his head to look at his chest.

There, a bright red hand was clutching his bloody liver.

He tried hard to turn his head.

Seeing the familiar face behind him, he felt as if he fell into an ice cave.

Cold!

A chilling aura invaded his entire body.

"Uncle... why..."

Sun Jie couldn’t believe it all.

His uncle had said that someone must die.

But why was it him who had to die?

"Xiao Jie, for your younger brother, your death will be very valuable."

Sun Ye said with a faint smile.

"Younger brother Sun Nan?"

"Yes, he has always let you be the big brother, now it’s your turn to let him."

Sun Ye continued, "Rest assured, the Xia Liu you hated will go down to accompany you soon, you will not be lonely."

With that, Sun Ye crushed the liver in his hand.

Splurt!

Sun Jie spat out a thick pool of blood.

The Golden Core within him was also crushed by Sun Ye.

In an instant, he lost all his vitality.

Sun Ye casually tossed Sun Jie’s body aside.

Sun Ye looked at Xia Liu with a light smile.

"It’s really all thanks to you this time, Demon Xia."

"Interesting, you kill Sun Jie, letting Sun Nan ascend as the Young Master of the Sun Family."

Xia Liu understood immediately.

Sun Ye really had a good plan.

Sun Jie had a grudge against him.

When the Sun Family discovered Sun Jie’s death, Sun Ye would shift all the blame onto him.

Then the Sun Family’s experts would demand his execution.

Sun Nan would then securely inherit the Sun Family!

Smack!

Being schemed against like this, Xia Liu felt a bit helpless.

But mostly, he felt resentful.

"You’re clever indeed."

Sun Ye nodded.

Even if Xia Liu knew everything, so what.

The Sun Family would never believe him.

As long as he died, Sun Nan could securely be the Young Master of the Sun Family.

"But how do you know that you can pass the message back?"

Xia Liu was already intent on killing.

Trying to scheme against him.

Sun Ye should know what price to pay!

"Since I dared to do it, naturally I have a full plan. With your ability, it’s impossible to kill me, at least not today!"

With that, Sun Ye’s body slowly became translucent.

Without any argument, Xia Liu opened the sword bag on his back, and the Taiqing Sword instantly moved.

Yet the Taiqing Sword pierced through Sun Ye’s body!

"Not corporeal! Nor a secret technique!"

"Haha! Young one, there are many arts in the Cultivation Realm you do not know of. I manifested my spirit through formation, your Divine Sense can’t detect my presence, nor know where I’m truly casting my art!"

Sun Ye laughed triumphantly.

Everything today was just to pave the way for Sun Nan.

As long as he returned to the Sun Family.

Xia Liu was doomed to die!

Unless the Empress came to protect him!

But even if it were the Empress, the evidence of murder is clear, for the peace of the Central Continent.

No one would protect Xia Liu!

"Impressive! This is really a strong play!"

Xia Liu retracted the Taiqing Sword, the situation had developed to this point.

It was completely unexpected like a Divinity Transformation event.

But no matter.

It was just the Sun Family!

What’s there to fear!

Even as Sun Ye completely vanished from sight, Xia Liu remained unmoved.

He never touched Sun Jie’s body from start to finish.

There was no trace of his aura on it.

Consider it a chance to clear his name.

Then Xia Liu continued on his way towards the Southern Heavenly God Village.

Even if the Sun Family experts wanted to come, it would take them some time.

Five days later, within a grand hall of the Eastern Central Continent’s vast Zhuangsheng Hall.

Several Nascent Soul Late-Stage cultivators revealed ferocious expressions.

"How dare you kill the Young Master of my Sun Family!"

"Damn Xia Liu! Just because he got good results at the Ascension Conference, does he really think he’s invincible?"

"It’s really damnable! Just because he allied with the Cultivation Alliance, does he think he can kill at will?"

...

In the grand hall, many strong cultivators were angrily debating Xia Liu’s killing of Sun Jie.

Although Sun Jie wasn’t popular within the family.

He was still the Young Master of the Sun Family.

Now the Young Master had been killed.

And it was right in front of a Sun Family Elder!

This was simply putting the Sun Family in disregard!

If the Sun Family didn’t speak up.

They would no longer have a place in the Central Continent!

"The Family Head is here!"

A guard shouted at the entrance.

Immediately, the heated debate ceased.

Because the Family Head was Sun Jie’s father!

Sun Dazhi, the tenth-generation Family Head of the Sun Family

At this moment, Sun Dazhi lacked his usual elegance and grace.

With a solemn face and an imposing, hidden anger, even some Nascent Soul Early-Stage cultivators dared not approach.

After all, Sun Dazhi had a Nascent Soul Great Perfection cultivation!

His casual burst of anger could seriously harm a Nascent Soul Early-Stage cultivator.

"Family Head!"

The many elders in the grand hall saluted with folded fists.

"Hmm, I’ve understood the situation, what do you all think?"

Sun Dazhi was trying hard to suppress his anger.

As the head of the family, he knew there were many in the family eyeing his position.

Now more than ever, he couldn’t show any weakness.

To prevent those harboring ill intentions from taking advantage.

"Regarding the case of Young Master Sun Jia’s murder, I propose we immediately demand him from the Cultivation Alliance!"

"Yes, yes, support!"

"If the Sun Family remains silent, outsiders will surely spread many rumors."

"This matter must be handled beautifully, we can’t let outsiders look down on the Sun Family!"

"Also, after handling this matter, we should re-establish a Young Master."

...

The Sun Family elders in the grand hall voiced their opinions.

"Hmm, I agree with your opinions, but let’s first thoroughly investigate the events surrounding Xiao Jie’s murder, directly demanding him from the Alliance is unwise."

Sun Dazhi’s caution earned nods from many elders.

Even with his son’s death, he remained composed, worthy of the Sun Family’s patriarch!

But some did not support his actions.

With his son dead, and not expressing anger, how could the Sun Family ever hope to become stronger under the hand of such a coward?

"Elder Sun Ye witnessed everything, and when he returned he was severely injured, with him as a witness, once the Alliance brings Xia Liu to confront, everything will be revealed."

"Yes! With Elder Sun Ye as a witness, the Cultivation Alliance can’t refuse to hand him over!"

"If the Alliance doesn’t hand Xia Liu over for confrontation, we would have every reason to strike against Xia Liu!"

"Hmm! That’s a good idea!"

Sun Dazhi surveyed the room, he had seen Sun Ye’s injuries.

They weren’t severe.

However, his Nascent Soul had some damage.

Xia Liu was merely Nascent Soul Mid-Stage in cultivation.

Their battle had left Sun Ye’s Nascent Soul severely injured, yet his body unharmed.

There might be some trickery involved...

"Family Head, give the order! We’ll take Elder Sun Ye to the Cultivation Alliance today to demand Xia Liu!"
