Ascension, starting from the Chaos Art of Heaven and Earth

"Junior Brother Yang, I will go to Pinglu Peak with you."

Wei Yuhang took the initiative to propose to go to Pinglu Peak with Yang Che, which surprised and puzzled Yang Che.

The two came to Pinglu Peak.

In front of the stone house where the former steward disciple Xu Yong lived.

Yang Che saw several errand disciples and two young disciples, one male and one female, dressed in gorgeous clothes.

Both young people were at the twelfth level of Qi Refining.

The female disciple had a pretty face and a calm expression.

The male disciple had a handsome appearance and a cold expression.

The appearance of Wei Yuhang, a handsome and fat man, changed the expressions of the two young disciples.

Yang Che caught that the female disciple had a look of surprise and evasion, while the male disciple had a look of contempt and ridicule.

"Junior Brother Wei, it's been a long time since we last met."

The male disciple's tone was a bit weird.

The female disciple slowly stood up, looked at Wei Yuhang, and whispered, "Why are you here?"

Wei Yuhang's expression did not change. He just said lightly, "I heard that the murder case at Pinglu Peak involved my junior brother Yang, so I came here with him. Junior sister Jian, don't worry too much. Just do whatever you need to do. Just handle the matter impartially."

Yang Che's heart sank. He didn't expect that he really came here for the murder case.

As soon as Wei Yuhang finished speaking, the eyes of the young male and female disciples immediately fell on Yang Che.

Seeing that Yang Che looked ordinary and there was nothing strange about him, the woman surnamed Jian regained her indifference and asked, "Are you junior brother Yang Che?"

Yang Che bowed and said, "Yang Che meets senior brother and sister."

The woman surnamed Jian nodded, but the young man showed arrogance on his face.

After confirming Yang Che's identity, he immediately asked coldly, "Were you also there on the night when Xu Yong and Zhao Ji died?"

Yang Che was shocked when he heard this, but his expression did not change at all.

Soon he understood something from the young man's eyes, so he immediately said firmly: "I was indeed called to this stone house by Senior Brother Xu that day, but I left soon. I don't know what happened afterwards."

"Junior Sister Jian, he admitted it. Let's take him back to the Eighth Peak."

The young man slammed the table and stood up, ready to attack Yang Che.

Yang Che almost laughed out of anger.

Is this young man mentally ill? This is called admitting? What did he admit?

Just as he was about to argue, Wei Yuhang suddenly flashed and blocked Yang Che with his fat and tall body: "Jiang Wu, are you crazy? What did he admit?"

Yang Che was surprised when he said this.

Besides being aloof, Senior Brother Wei actually has such a 'fierce' side.

The young man named Jiang Wu's face suddenly became extremely ugly.

He twisted his mouth and said angrily: "Wei Yuhang, what do you have to do here? My Eight Peaks disciples are doing things here, when is it your turn to make decisions?"

Wei Yuhang still looked arrogant and said lightly: "It is true that you, the Eight Peaks disciples, are doing things. But Yang Che is also my Xijianchi disciple. As the Xijianchi consul disciple, I naturally cannot watch him suffer injustice."

"Injustice? What injustice? Didn't he just admit that he was there the night Xu Yong and Zhao Ji died?"

Jiang Wu sneered.

Yang Che really couldn't stand it.

Judgment based on just being there? It seems that Jiang Wu is ready to play dirty and aggressive.

"Brother Jiang Wu, what did I admit? If your ears are not working well, I can say it again. You heard it clearly. Brother Xu Yong called me here that night, but I left after discussing things. When I left, Brother Zhao Ji was not there at all. So I don't know what happened between the two of them later. Did you hear it clearly?"

Yang Che's impolite words like a string of cannonballs stunned all the disciples present.

Especially Jiang Wu, after being stunned, he immediately scolded: "You are looking for death. How dare a little sword slave be so bold and arrogant? Do you know who I am?"

As he said, the flying sword quickly appeared in his hand, and he seemed to want to step forward to kill Yang Che.

"Brother Jiang, stop it!"

The female disciple surnamed Jian finally spoke and stopped Jiang Wu in time.

"Brother Jiang, we are only the quasi-disciples of the Eighth Peak. The eldest brother of the Eighth Peak asked us to investigate this unsolved case that has been going on for several months, which is also a test. So we must find out the truth. Do you think that with the power of Yang Che, who is at the fourth level of Qi Refining, he can kill the two junior brothers Xu Yong and Zhao Ji, who are at the ninth level of Qi Refining, at the same time?"

"Junior sister Jian Li, I must correct one thing. Junior brother Yang Che only broke through the fourth level of Qi Refining more than half a month ago."

Wei Yuhang interrupted at the right time, and deliberately stared at Jiang Wu and emphasized his tone.

Jiang Wu looked ugly, but he couldn't say anything to refute.

A disciple of the third level of Qi Refining can kill the ninth and eighth levels of Qi Refining at the same time?

Who would believe it if he told others?

Jiang Wu actually knew it in his heart, but he knew that the murder case of Pinglu Peak was simply an "unsolved case" and was extremely weird.

In addition to the explanation that Xu Yong and Zhao Ji fought because of some private interests or conflicts and died together, there is almost no second possibility.

But the Eight Peaks gave this test, so Jiang Wu did it on purpose, wanting to find a scapegoat and get away with it.

Originally, he and Junior Sister Jian Li found a few witnesses through investigation and generous rewards, that is, a few errand disciples who saw Yang Che being called away by Xu Yong that night.

So they discussed that if Yang Che refused to admit that he had been there that night, there would probably be a problem.

But Yang Che not only admitted that he had been there, but also had almost no hesitation or panic.

With the help of Fatty Wei, it seems that Yang Che cannot be the scapegoat.

However, Yang Che dared to speak to him in such a tone in public, almost ignoring his cultivation and status. This made Jiang Wu a little suspicious while holding a grudge.

He decided to find an opportunity to investigate Yang Che.

Jiang Wu left with Jian Li in dismay.

Yang Che and Wei Yuhang also returned to the Sword Washing Pool of the Sword Casting Pavilion.

"Brother Wei, thank you for your righteous words before." Yang Che said to Brother Wei.

Wei Yuhang waved his hand: "No need to thank me. I have always disliked Jiang Wu. He is very good at scheming. Flattering, turning black into white, and making things up are all his specialties. I have been fooled by him before."

Sighing, Wei Yuhang said: "This person will never give up. You dared to talk to him like that before, he must bear a grudge. When you reach the fifth level of Qi Refining and leave the Sword Washing Pool in the future, you must be careful of his revenge. I will also leave in a few days. At that time, he may very likely send menial disciples to deal with you, so you should be more careful."

"Brother Wei is leaving?" Yang Che was a little surprised.

Wei Yuhang is the consul disciple here. He has great power and less work, and has plenty of time to practice.

It should be a good job.

"Yes. I want to challenge the Nine Peaks disciple again. I failed last time because I was tricked by Jiang Wu."

After Wei Yuhang finished speaking, his eyes showed great desire and yearning.

Yang Che had no choice but to bless him.

Senior Brother Wei treated him well and was not a bad person.

Although Yang Che would not trust anyone, he still had at least a little admiration for people like Senior Brother Wei.

After this incident, Yang Che continued to work hard in the sword washing pool and secretly figured out the way to forge swords, while also stepping up his cultivation recovery.

More than two months later, Wei Yuhang left.

When he left, another disciple would naturally replace him.

And Yang Che never expected that the person who replaced Wei Yuhang was Jiang Wu.
