Their reasoning was that, when spirit beasts and humans live together for a long time, they gain a special type of telepathy between them, this is also the reason why the entire cultivator world believe spirit beasts to be loyal friends.

Not to mention, these spirit beasts dared to expose the Saint’s disciple right after their master died, seen as loyal and sincere.

All cultivators from Blue Clouds Pass were running around actively spreading rumors, while Spirit Beast sect’s cultivators stayed absolutely silent and refused to say anything.

They understood that they’ve become a sacrifice in the fight between the Saints’ disciples.

For their own protection, the best action is non-action.

But the 5 spirit beasts from before were still staying in the camp ——–Ding Yuan General Wu Xing Wen ordered Spirit Beast sect to not recover them and leave them there as evidence.

That way, more and more cultivators started to believe this rumor.

This matter was brewing up larger, slowly but surely.

A few female cultivators even openly gave the spirit beasts some pills and herbs.

They were using this type of silent action to show who they supported in this matter.

Many cultivators were staring at Gu Qing Shan with both silent disdain and contempt.

“Hmph” Ning Yue Xi had never received such cold treatment before, she gritted her teeth and wanted to say something.

“Don’t get too excited, their sights aren’t directed at you” Gu Qing Shan held her back.

“But they can’t direct it at you either, that’s not fair to you” Ning Yue Xi calmly replied.

“I don’t care about such vague fairness” Gu Qing Shan replied, “the only thing we need to do right now is be patient and wait”

Night.

The main army has gathered; the battle was about to begin.

All three Ding Yuan Generals has gathered in one place.

Ding Yuan General Gong Sun Zhi, Ding Yuan General Wu Xing Wen, Ding Yuan General Ming Hui Monk.

Wu Xing Wen is the eldest disciple of Blue Clouds Pass, while Ming Hui Monk is the first seat of Spirit Leaf Temple. They are both great cultivators and disciples of Xuanyuan Tianzun and the Great Monk of Sorrow respectively, so of course they’re capable of leading great numbers.

Gong Sun Zhi on the other hand, is a true hard worker. Many of humanity’s formations currently in use were created by him, a few of the battles they won so far was also due to his contributions. As one of the three Ding Yuan Generals of humanity, he’s someone that’s greatly admired through his own efforts.

For some unknown reason, the matter that happened this morning spread with extreme speed across all the armies, even reaching Gong Sun Zhi’s ears.

Gong Sun Zhi frowned as he heard the rumors, shaking his head.

Ming Hui Monk only chanted Amitabha, not giving anymore commentary.

Even though rumors spread that someone was falsely executed by a Saint’s disciple, everyone still did what they need to do.

The only party involved that’s staying completely silent is Spirit Beast sect.

“How did you manage to offend Bai Hua sect’s Sword 15?” one Elder asked.

“I got tricked by Wu Xing Wen” the Elder from before sighed as he answered, “the report he showed me did not have Bai Hua sect’s Gu Qing Shan name on it”

Seeing the sorrowful look of everyone, he gritted his teeth: “Right now, we must remain silent to make sure nothing bigger happens. In the future, if Bai Hua Saint wants to investigate further, even if she wants to do a Soul Reading, I will be the only one that talks about everything from the start, to ensure our sect’s survival”

“But the spirit beasts…”

“Hah, I also don’t know what happened with them”

“Could it possibly be true…?”

On another side, the three Ding Yuan Generals stood on three different podiums, giving out orders and arranging formations.

Wu Xing Wen stood on one of the podiums giving out orders to each person.

“Spirit Beast sect Wang Zhao Wu!”

“Here”

“You’re responsible for frontline alert!”

“Roger!”

“Floating Clouds sect Zhang Zhen Wei!”

“Here”

“You’re responsible for the left side spell squad”

“Roger!”

“Yao Guang sect Leng Tian Xing!”

“Here”

“You’re responsible for vanguard spell squad”

“Roger!”

“You Ji General Ning Yue Xi”

“Here”

“You’re responsible for the Vanguard and both wings’ command”

“Roger!”

Wu Xing Wen went on and on, then finally said: “The 5 remaining sects form groups of 2 each, responsible for the transport of pills, formation plates and other types of military resources”

As they looked back, the only remaining sects are Bai Hua sect, Spirit Flame Palace, Origin Sword sect, Fu Shui Mountain sect and Cloud Gate sect.

Spirit Flame Palace, Origin Sword sect, Fu Shui Mountain sect and Cloud Gate sect all had around 10 people each, immediately formed rows of two as they heard the orders.

The only one left that’s alone is Bai Hua sect Gu Qing Shan.

“What’s going on, there’s still one person left, why are you not in a group yet?” Wu Xing Wen loudly and purposefully questioned.

“Your order was to form groups of two, we’ve all formed a group sir” one cultivator from Spirit Flame sect shrugged.

“Why don’t you include one more?” Wu Xing Wen said.

“We don’t need someone who kills their comrade” a cultivator from Origin Sword sect muttered.

The entire scene went silent.

Everyone looked at Gu Qing Shan coldly, even people from the groups of other Generals looked over.

Gu Qing Shan stood there alone, without anyone with him.

“Haha, suits him right”

“Such a person who pretends to be so noble yet uses official reasons to take care of personal grudge, who needs him”

“So what if he is a Saint’s disciple? If it weren’t for the spirit beasts, we would all be fooled as well”

“Just leave him, let him fend for himself”

The voice of discussions was getting louder and louder, almost becoming a torrent.

Wu Xing Wen smirked and only looked at the scene.

“That’s enough!” a voice called out.

Looking below, you could see a cultivator running towards him.

He stood next to Gu Qing Shan, loudly shouted: “What murderer, did you see it for yourself!?”

“What a bunch of lies!”

“Ever since we arrived this morning, over a dozen people from Blue Clouds Pass did nothing but ran around badmouthing our Bai Hua sect haven’t they? Are your eyes just for decoration?”

“This is blatant framing!”

Qin Xiao Lou voice rang all around.

He paced around with extreme annoyance, then pointed at Wu Xing Wen: “You’re a Ding Yuan General, yet you let your own sect members go around spreading lies before the battle against your own! How do you live with yourself!?”

“How dare you!” Wu Xing Wen suddenly stood up, “you’re a simple Yu Wu Chaplain, and you dare to openly question this General!?”

“This matter is something everyone here knows about, everyone spreads it because it is justice that deserves to be spread, what does it have to do with this General!”

“You—–“

Qin Xiao Lou was miffed, but looked up to see him wearing a Ding Yuan General armor set, as well as dozens of Blue Clouds Pass cultivators standing behind him, their spirit energy pressure combining.

Qin Xiao Lou turned around, wanted to pull Gu Qing Shan away.

“Junior brother, let us leave, we’ll go to General Sun Zhi, no need to stay here and endure this nonsense”

“Stop!” Wu Xing Wen shouted.

“What do you want now? We can’t speak up against you, but you can’t stop us from leaving” Qin Xiao Lou shouted back.

“Gu Qing Shan is a Xiao Qi Chaplain under my jurisdiction, he can’t just leave with you like that” Wu Xing Wen lifted his face and declared.

“What did you say he was?”

“A Xiao Qi Chaplain under my jurisdiction”

“Hmph, so you also know that he’s a Xiao Qi Chaplain, I’ve never heard about any Xiao Qi Chaplain having to go transport supplies ———and you still say you’re not prejudiced against our Bai Hua sect!”

Wu Xing Wen coldly laughed: “So what if he has to transport supplies. You’re a Zhen Wei Chaplain yourself, do you go out to fight? Can you even go out and fight?”

“Yo-you, that’s…” Qin Xiao Lou was unbearably mad, but unable to say anything back.

Gu Qing Shan pulled him towards himself, held down his shoulder and spoke very seriously: “Senior brother, calm down and listen to me”

Qin Xiao Lou looked back at him with bloodshot eyes.

Gu Qing Shan calmly and slowly spoke: “You and I are both Bai Hua Saint’s disciples, the path we walk is the path to heaven. As long as we know we did nothing wrong and walk on the path of righteousness, who needs to care about others’ opinion?”

“Not to mention, anyone that lives in this world has to go through some sort of trouble eventually. Facing unkind words and cold eyes, this is nothing but a normal occurrence”

“——because in the end, there will be a day when we will be able to make everyone stay silent, unable to speak up to us even once, just like our Shifu”
