He even shrugged in Su Jiu's direction. "What did I tell you? See? They won't believe us!"
Indeed, they would not believe them.
Not only did the other two elders look grim, even Hu Yucheng and Lin Jiaojiao began to take issue with Thirteen.
"Do you have any evidence to support that claim?" As the current Sect Master of the Mystic Dharma Immortal Sect, Hu Yucheng knew this was no longer merely a personal grievance. Anything involving a demon seed was already gravely serious.
"If you have evidence, you won't need to ask. I'll personally accompany you to escort him to the Azure Tide Sect!"
"Sect Master!" Several members of the Mystic Dharma Immortal Sect cried out in shock.
Hu Yucheng waved for them to be quiet, then continued slowly to Su Jiu, "But if you have no evidence, I will require your Azure Tide Sect's Enforcement Hall to apologize to our Mystic Dharma Immortal Sect!"
Thirteen glanced at Su Jiu with an expression that said he had known this would happen, then murmured, "The magic treasure that can actually test for it is back at our sect. That's why we need to take him there first."
Hearing this, the female cultivator grew emboldened again. "So you really do judge cases based solely on speculation?! Did Xia Jue send you? Just because his golden mouth foretold that someone had a demon seed planted in them, it must be true? What if he's wrong? Where does that leave the Azure Tide Sect, and where does it leave us? Are we really supposed to cut all ties and never speak again for the rest of our lives?"
Thirteen said firmly, "The Hall Master cannot be wrong! Even if that testing treasure malfunctioned, the Hall Master would never make a mistake!"
