The matter had come to this point, and the surrounding cultivators were in an uproar.
"There are both witnesses and physical evidence. This time, Yang Yan couldn't defend himself no matter what!"
"Just now, I thought Yang Yan was full of righteousness and believed he wasn't part of the Evil Demon Sect. But I didn't expect him to be a monster of the Evil Demon Sect!"
"I almost got fooled, thinking he looked like a scholar, which made me believe he was truly a good person!"
"He Xin, the Evil Demon Slayer, such a good cultivator, was killed by him!
He's simply a beast!"
They pointed fingers at Yang Yan, showing expressions of resentment.
Some people even angrily rebuked Yang Yan, their murderous intent chilling.
Ao Tian, Kong Xuan, and Bai He had slight changes in their expressions as well.
They all stood next to Yang Yan, protecting him!
They knew that wanting to produce evidence now was impossible!
Because from the beginning, they only prepared evidence to lift the Heavenly Dao Warrant!
This sudden change caught them off guard!
"Yang Yan, don't you have anything to say?
Haha, you're just crying without seeing the coffin!
We at Heavenly Star Building have never made a mistake, and we won't make one with you!
You came here looking for trouble, you've found the wrong place!" Qing Mian said eerily.
"Today, you sought what you thought was right, and you got your proof!
If you hadn't come to the Heavenly Star Building, maybe we would have only put you at the top of the List of Human and Gods' Hatred, just to give you some trouble!
Now you've forced us to produce evidence, from now on, you will have no place in the Righteous Path!
And given that you are within Central Continent, trying to leave here is probably impossible!"
With the evidence presented, Yang Yan's identity as the younger brother of the Evil Demon Sect's unanimously endorsed New Saint Master was indisputable.
He would be the public enemy of the Righteous Path, not tolerated by them!
Those who wanted to kill him were numerous!
"Alright everyone, let us end today's matters here.
The issue with Yang Yan has been confirmed, there is no doubt about his identity.
The reason for placing him at the top of the List of Human and Gods' Hatred, I think you all understand!
I, Qing Mian, will take my leave now..." Qing Mian saw Yang Yan not speaking anymore and confirmed everything, preparing to leave.
Yang Yan raised a hand.
"Wait!"
Qing Mian looked at Yang Yan.
"Do you have something to explain or defend?"
Yang Yan stood with his hands behind his back, his expression unchanged.
*Being an Emperor, his Heart Realm was as steady as Mount Tai.*
*Even if someone wanted to kill him, he wouldn't show much change.*
*Moreover, the current situation was just a small ripple for him.*
"To whom in Central Continent was He Xin's letter sent?" he asked.
Qing Mian shook his head.
"According to the rules of the Heavenly Star Building, we need to keep the provider of evidence confidential!"
Confidential!
"If you, Yang Yan, seek revenge against the other party, I advise you to give up the thought.
You are a disgrace to the Evil Demon Sect, Central Continent is not a place for you to act wild!" Qing Mian said gravely.
"Do you have evidence to prove your innocence, if not.
I advise you to escape Central Continent quickly, or there's a slim chance of survival!
If not..."
He gave the surroundings an implicit glance.
"You won't live past a day!"
Ao Tian's expression turned cold, and he was ready to draw his sword.
Yang Yan pressed his hand on Ao Tian's shoulder, stopping him.
"Acting now will only confirm their words!" he said calmly.
Ao Tian put away his sword.
"Master, what should we do next?"
If this matter wasn't resolved, Yang Yan could forget about Ascension.
Participating in the Heaven Ascending Qualification Battle was out of the question, not to mention the endless pursuit from Central Continent's Righteous Path.
Everywhere was trouble!
"Aside from you, has anyone else arrived?"
Ao Tian shook his head.
"They should have arrived two days earlier, but even now, they haven't emerged.
Something must have happened on the road!"
Yang Yan frowned slightly.
*Things were somewhat beyond my expectations!*
He thought others had already arrived when he came here.
If they had come, not to mention lifting the Heavenly Dao Warrant cast on him,
even if more people called him the Evil Demon Sect, those people could prove everything for him.
But unexpectedly, only Ao Tian and Kong Xuan had arrived.
The two of them were his servants, extremely close to him.
Having them testify would only backfire!
"Why would things happen on the road?"
Thinking of this, he suddenly thought of something.
He glanced at the Evil Demon Elder locked in chains, and his eyebrows relaxed.
He roughly guessed why others were obstructed on their way!
"Yang Yan, there's no use in delaying," Qing Mian said.
The witnesses and the evidence are all present!
Your identity will not change in any way!
Stop fighting like a trapped beast and admit the truth!"
Yang Yan looked at him quietly.
"If I can prove that I am not part of the Evil Demon Sect!
What if I can prove that the Heavenly Star Building is slandering me?" he said slowly.
Qing Mian laughed.
"The Heavenly Star Building does not make mistakes. If a mistake occurs!
The Heavenly Star Building will let you handle it as you please without a word!" he said loudly.
Yang Yan nodded.
"Very well, then wait for an hour.
I will prove to you whether I have colluded with the Evil Demon Sect!"
Qing Mian sighed.
"Yang Yan, even if you wait for an hour, you can't turn the tables!"
"Just wait, and you'll see," Yang Yan said confidently.
Qing Mian's eyes moved slightly. Yang Yan's demeanor was too confident.
"Yang Yan, are you aware!
Given your current situation, if you escape, there might still be a chance to live.
After an hour, when this matter spreads across Central Continent,
countless strong individuals will arrive, you won't even know how you die!" Qing Mian warned.
"I, have never thought of fleeing!"
"Cultivators around, one hour.
I will give you an hour as well!
In this hour, you can call your elders.
After all, if I cannot prove my identity, you can kill me, and gain endless Treasures!" Yang Yan shouted as he surveyed the surroundings.
"Do not miss the golden opportunity!"
After saying this, Yang Yan signaled to Bai He, and Bai He knowingly took out a table, chairs, and a wine jar.
He also took out a parasol-like Treasure and set it up beside the table to shield the sunlight.
Yang Yan sat down.
"Ao Tian, Kong Xuan, sit down and drink.
By the way, tell me where you've been and what you've gained these days!"
"Yes, Master." Ao Tian and Kong Xuan sat down calmly.
They believed in what Yang Yan said!
Bai He opened the wine jar on the side and poured drinks for each of them.
Then he stood by, listening to the conversation among the three.
Their composed and indifferent demeanor made the surrounding cultivators look at one another.
Even Qing Mian, couldn't understand!
"Are they really not afraid of death?"
In the carriage, Murong and Qian Rong neither went out nor fled.
They wouldn't leave.
Even if Yang Yan was proven to be a spy of the Evil Demon Sect, they wouldn't leave Yang Yan.
Moreover, Yang Yan said that after one hour, he could prove he had no ties with the Evil Demon Sect.
They had no reason to leave!
Time passed, and more and more cultivators gathered in the city.
The aura of the strong among them continued to increase.
The intent to kill toward Yang Yan from the cultivators grew more intense, with no concealment.
"How long until an hour?" Qing Mian asked the person behind him.
"Reporting to the pavilion master, one stick incense of time remains!"
"Hmm."
After the time of one stick incense, Qing Mian walked out.
"Yang Yan, the time is up, where is your evidence?" he questioned.
Instantly, the gaze of the surrounding cultivators fixed on Yang Yan.
They were eager to make a move.
"Brother Yang is of the Righteous Path, why is evidence needed!"
Yang Yan hadn't spoken, but a clear voice came from afar, reaching everyone's ears.
