Sweeping through Returning Balance Academy!

Upon hearing this question, the Second Elder Liang Zheng's expression inevitably changed.

This is a killer question...

Song Zhiyi's fate is now clear.

This Supreme Clarity Palace Son showed absolutely no mercy; the legendary Divine Eye was indeed real. How was he supposed to answer that?!

Liang Zheng immediately turned to the side, looked at the person beside him, and said in a deep voice:

"Third Elder, you know more about the Dao-Nurturing Pool than I do, so you explain it to him."

"I'll do it?"

The Third Elder's heart sank upon hearing this.

When I'm organizing my notes, I've never seen the other person categorize things so clearly!

Now you know to blame it on yourself?!

His lips moved slightly, but before he could speak, Ye Li spoke first:

I was asking you.

Liang Zheng's expression changed, and he had no choice but to cup his hands and say:

"Palace Heir, this matter involves many records. Why don't we set aside Zhiyi for now and go inside the palace to discuss it in detail?"

"Can't you understand human language?"

Ye Li looked at him and said calmly:

"Is it so hard to just say it clearly face to face, whether or not it has been changed?"

"..."

Liang Zheng's expression finally turned ugly.

The students from nearby academies looked at each other in bewilderment upon seeing this.

Why isn't the Second Elder saying anything?

"Modify the death records of [Dao-Nurturing Pool]? What can that change?"

"Of course, it means that the cause of death after entering the pool was not due to cultivation!"

"No way... My senior brother just went in last month!"

Listening to those discussions filled with astonishment and doubt.

Song Zhiyi's heart tightened.

This matter concerns the very foundation of the Returning Balance Academy. If Ye Li continues to ask these questions, who knows what kind of trouble it might cause!

She endured the excruciating pain and hissed:

"Palace Heir Ye!"

"You trespassed into my courtyard without permission and injured my disciples. Did you even report this to the Green Luo Continent Alliance Association?!"

Ye Li tightened his five fingers slightly.

Click!!

Under the vast expanse of Pure Qi, a series of cracking sounds of bones rang out!

Song Zhiyi trembled violently, blood gushing from her mouth as if it were free, and her subsequent questions turned into screams!

A cultivator at the Ninth Rank of the Opening Path Opening Realm couldn't even struggle in that palm!

This is too outrageous... Liang Zheng's throat bobbed as he read it.

But from Ye Li's reaction, he also sensed that something was amiss.

No notification was issued!

This person definitely came here on their own initiative!

Liang Zheng immediately felt relieved, and then, gritting his teeth, spoke again:

"Palace Heir Ye, the affairs of the Green Luo Continent are to be handled by the Alliance Association here."

"Several Manager within the alliance have previously visited our sect's [Dao-Nurturing Pool] and provided relevant conclusions."

"You've overturned their decision and even come knocking on our door without permission. Where do you think you're going to put the Green Luo Continent Alliance Association's reputation?"

Ye Li's eyes flickered slightly.

Liang Zheng felt a little more at ease and quickly continued:

"Furthermore, our Alliance Association has sorted out many old cases related to the Tongmenghui's Dao Lineage."

Some things have far-reaching implications.

"If this really escalates... I'm afraid even the Supreme Clarity Palace wouldn't want that outcome."

He believed he had explained himself clearly enough.

The trouble at the Returning Balance Academy is not just an issue for the academy itself!

However.

Meeting his slightly expectant gaze, Ye Li chuckled softly:

I gave you a chance.

"What?" Liang Zheng's heart tightened suddenly!

Before he could finish speaking...

Ye Li released his grip and kicked Song Zhiyi far away before disappearing from sight!

"Careful!!"

The four elders' expressions changed drastically!

A surge of Immortal Essence erupted, and several Magic Treasure simultaneously ascended into the sky!

Pages filled with doctrines appeared from the void and opened, then condensed into dense Dao Patterns, protecting the group within!

But the next moment...

Boom!!!

The incoming fist smashed through all the Dao Patterns!

Liang Zheng's arms, which he had been supporting himself with, instantly exploded into a bloody mist, and his body flew backward, crashing into the Third Elder behind him!

Before the two could separate, a golden light appeared above their heads again!

Boom!!!

A terrifying force crashed down from the sky, shattering both of their bodies!

Only two Divine Soul filled with agony were captured in Ye Li's palm!

Seeing this, the remaining two elders were utterly horrified. They dared not continue fighting and turned to flee in different directions!

But they had only flown a few dozen feet when they were forcibly stopped by the Pure Qi surging from all directions!

The golden light roared in with the force of tearing silk, splitting the entire clear sky in two!

Two figures collapsed into blood and gore in the storm, screaming as they vanished into the sky!

At this point, the entire academy fell silent.

The disciples from all four directions were completely dumbfounded!

"It's... over?!"

How much time has passed since the elders took action?!

Four Late Path Opening True Origin cultivators were defeated so easily. This Great Clarity Yama is truly terrifying, like a ghost or god!

The surrounding schools had long since fallen silent.

The deacons who had rushed over stopped at a distance, not daring to go any further!

Ye Li remained calm.

His physical body is now comparable to that of Fortune-Mastery True Cultivator.

What could these cultivators, who couldn't even contend with ordinary True Person, possibly do against him?

As the Pure Qi converges.

The remaining two Divine Soul that tried to escape were also captured in his palm!

Not far away.

Song Zhiyi collapsed among the rubble, her whole body trembling uncontrollably.

The rumors are true!

Ye Li didn't even use any Magic Treasure; he defeated the four elders with his bare hands, leaving them no chance to escape!

Ignoring everything else.

She barely managed to channel her Immortal Essence, summoning a scroll from her ring and shattering it instantly!

Now that things have come to this, we have no choice but to ask True Person for help!

Returning Balance Academy currently only has Perfected Mingzhang in Fortune-Mastery.

However, his Divine Ability abilities are quite famous throughout the Green Luo Continent!

The academy's ability to maintain its position among the Top-Tier Dao Lineage is not solely due to the Inheritance left by True Lord Returning Balance.

It's nowhere near as good as [Heavenly Thunder Mountain] in the Cold Sea Continent, where even its status is highly controversial!

Well done.

Suddenly, a voice came from nearby.

Song Zhiyi looked up in alarm.

Ye Li appeared before her without her noticing and chuckled softly:

"I was really worried that you wouldn't True Person come."

After all, it wouldn't make sense to kill these people first and then send a message to the True Person of the Returning Balance Academy on their behalf.

As they were talking.

His five fingers slowly tightened.

"No!!"

Liang Zheng and the Divine Soul struggled frantically, but they could not escape that palm!

Bang!!!

All four Divine Soul exploded simultaneously!

The scattered Immortal Essence transformed into a cold, raging wind that swept in all directions, causing Song Zhiyi's disheveled hair to dance wildly!

Her face was completely drained of color.

I see...

Ye Li was not afraid of Perfected Mingzhang at all!

The reason they were spared was to wait for them to deliver a message!

This Supreme Clarity Palace Son has such confidence in his own strength?!

Is he really confident he can defeat his own True Person?!

Thinking of this, Song Zhiyi disregarded everything else and cried out urgently:

"Reporting to Palace Heir Ye, I have corrected my mistake!"

"I did indeed alter the death records at Dao-Nurturing Pool!"

"But that was all at the behest of Perfected Mingzhang; I was merely following orders!"

These words immediately drew gasps of surprise from all around!

"You've really changed?!"

"Then what about our fallen comrades?!"

"My brother clearly died in the pool, but the elders say he made a mistake during his cultivation... Is that an alteration?!"

All eyes, filled with shock and anger, fell upon Song Zhiyi.

She didn't care at all, only caring about Ye Li in front of her, and said humbly:

"Palace Heir, I can lead the way!"

"I'm familiar with the Array Formation of the Dao-Nurturing Pool. If you're willing to spare my life, I'll tell you anything!"

"You're only admitting it now?"

Ye Li chuckled, "It's too late. As for the location of the Dao-Nurturing Pool, someone has already told me."

He had just read the memories of those elders.

Even if Song Zhiyi doesn't say it, he won't miss out on things he needs to know.

Song Zhiyi felt a chill run down her spine.

Before he could even understand the meaning of those words, a surge of scorching heat suddenly erupted from within his body!

"Ah!!!"

The Divine Fire engulfed her in an instant!

Song Zhiyi in agony, trying to extinguish the fire with her Immortal Essence, but it was like adding fuel to the fire. In the end, even her Divine Soul could not escape her body!

A few breaths later, only ashes remained on the spot.

Ye Li let out a silent sigh.

He turned and looked up at the sky above the academy, which was sealed off by the Pure Qi, and said softly:

You're back pretty quickly.

Everyone looked in his direction with surprise and uncertainty.

A figure slowly appeared high in the sky.

The newcomer was dressed as a refined scholar, with a youthful face. Looking at the scene below, his face was full of helplessness.

It is none other than the Perfected Mingzhang!

His appearance quickly quelled the commotion in the entire academy, and the disciples who were initially filled with shock and anger became restrained.

Perfected Mingzhang looked around and sighed softly:

"Fellow Daoist Ye's style of handling cases is truly unique."

"This is the first time I've ever seen a case investigation method where someone is killed without speaking."

"Fellow Daoist, aren't you afraid of killing the wrong person?"

"I haven't missed it yet."

Ye Li replied.

Perfected Mingzhang's eyes flickered slightly upon hearing this, and he was about to continue speaking when the young man interrupted him calmly:

You'd better think carefully before you speak.

"After all, these could be considered your last words."
