When Taihua Immortal Venerable's voice reached the ears of those Immortal Venerates at Heavenly Splendor Hall, it immediately aroused their displeasure.

Is this Taihua Immortal Venerable bored? They're all busy packing, so why summon them now?

The most important thing right now is to pack quickly. Whatever the matter is, just send them a message directly.

Dragging them to the Meeting Hall is purely a waste of time.

Despite their dissatisfaction, the Immortal Venerates from Heavenly Splendor Hall still went to the Meeting Hall, including Immortal Venerable Tianfeng.

Immortal Venerable Tianfeng vaguely felt a bad premonition, but he consoled himself. Even if Chenlan Immortal Venerable suspected him, he could deny it. After all, Lu Chen saw Chenlan Immortal Venerable as the one who acted.

If Heavenly Splendor Hall backed Chenlan Immortal Venerable, they might end up offending Lu Chen instead.

Soon, the Immortal Venerates gathered in the Meeting Hall, and one Immortal Venerate complained, "Hall Master, we're busy moving things. If you have anything, you could have just sent us a message. There's no need for us to make the trip."

Heavenly Splendor Hall is vast, each Immortal Venerate is responsible for a large area, and the distance between where they gather at the Immortal Sect is significant, requiring some time to get there.

Running back and forth like this naturally causes some Immortal Venerates to be displeased.

Taihua Immortal Venerable glanced at the Immortal Venerates present. When he saw Immortal Venerable Tianfeng among them, he breathed a slight sigh of relief. He had been worried that Immortal Venerable Tianfeng, fearing exposure, would immediately flee from Heavenly Splendor Hall.

If Immortal Venerable Tianfeng ran out of Heavenly Splendor Hall, it wouldn't be so easy to deal with him. After all, he's an Immortal Venerate. If he hid, it would not be easy for others to find him, and if he directly went to Blood Eagle Hall, it would be even harder for Heavenly Splendor Hall to handle him.

Taihua Immortal Venerable directly said, "Just now, an Immortal Venerate approached Lu Chen and killed Lu's clone, attempting to provoke Xiyue Immortal Emperor's dissatisfaction with Heavenly Splendor Hall and stop our relocation to the Eastern Domain. Fortunately, Lu understood the bigger picture and didn't hold it against us."

"But the fact that this person dared to attack Lu Chen means they don't want Heavenly Splendor Hall to leave the Southern Domain. Relating this to the early leak of our move to the Eastern Domain, this person is likely the traitor and may have already betrayed Heavenly Splendor Hall, becoming a lapdog of the Evil Immortals."

Upon hearing Taihua Immortal Venerable's words, the Immortal Venerates exchanged glances. Those closer to Lu Chen's residence did feel a surge of powerful energy but never thought in this direction.

Given the dire situation of Heavenly Splendor Hall, someone still dared to attack Lu Chen, the partner of Xiyue Immortal Emperor. If Lu Chen whispers a word or two to Xiyue Immortal Emperor, not only would the Eastern Domain move be off the table, but if Xiyue wants to hold us accountable for what happened to Lu Chen, Heavenly Splendor Hall could face immediate destruction.

At this moment, an Immortal Venerate stood up and said, "Who has such audacity! Are they trying to destroy Heavenly Splendor Hall?"

Another Immortal Venerate also shouted angrily, "Hall Master, who is the person? I would never let them go!"

Taihua Immortal Venerable's words instantly ignited the anger of the Immortal Venerates at Heavenly Splendor Hall.

Immortal Venerable Tianfeng stood in a corner, his face darkened. Although he felt a bit uneasy, he was confident that Taihua Immortal Venerable would not suspect him.

The disguise of the Transformation Mirror was flawless. He had used the Transformation Mirror before Immortal Venerate Star River, and even Star River didn't see through his true identity, let alone Lu Chen.

Just as Immortal Venerable Tianfeng felt confident about not being recognized, Taihua Immortal Venerable's gaze suddenly fell on him.

Seeing Taihua Immortal Venerable turn his gaze upon him, Immortal Venerable Tianfeng's heart skipped a beat.

Immortal Venerates possess powerful minds, refined over tens of billions of years. When Taihua Immortal Venerable looked over, Immortal Venerable Tianfeng was already preparing how to respond to his questions.

When he attacked Lu Chen, he had considered that Taihua Immortal Venerable would find Chenlan Immortal Venerable, who, in an attempt to clear suspicions, might reveal that he sought out Chenlan.

With his mind steady, Immortal Venerable Tianfeng was ready to tackle Taihua Immortal Venerable's questions, but unexpectedly, Taihua directly asked, "Elder Tianfeng, why did you attack Lu?"

Upon hearing Taihua Immortal Venerable's words, all Immortal Venerates in the hall immediately turned their gaze towards Immortal Venerable Tianfeng.

For a moment, Immortal Venerable Tianfeng was stunned. He thought Taihua Immortal Venerable would reveal Chenlan Immortal Venerable's attack on Lu Chen and then question him, but Taihua instantly determined it was his doing.

Immortal Venerable Tianfeng darkened his expression and said, "Hall Master, what do you mean by this? When did I ever do such a thing?"

At this moment, an Immortal Venerate stood up and said, "Hall Master, is there some misunderstanding here? How could Elder Tianfeng betray Heavenly Splendor Hall?"

It's known that Immortal Venerable Tianfeng was a strong advocate of resisting Blood Eagle Hall. If he betrayed Heavenly Splendor Hall, obstructing its move from the Southern Domain, and Blood Eagle Hall reckoned the scores, he would be the first to suffer.

Anyone could be a traitor, but Immortal Venerable Tianfeng is the least likely suspect.

Taihua Immortal Venerable coldly said, "Elder Tianfeng, do you really think that just because Lu's clone is dead, he wouldn't know who attacked him?"

As he spoke, Taihua Immortal Venerable looked at Lu Chen, "Lu, who attacked you just now?"

Lu Chen looked at Immortal Venerable Tianfeng and said, "It was Immortal Venerable Tianfeng."

Immortal Venerable Tianfeng was bewildered. Why didn't Lu reveal the part where he disguised as Chenlan Immortal Venerable but instead directly pegged him as the culprit?

How could Lu Chen possibly recognize him?

Upon regaining his composure, Immortal Venerable Tianfeng loudly protested, "Lu Chen, stop your slanders. When did I ever attack you!"

"We could go to where Lu Chen previously stayed and see which Immortal Venerate's Immortal Aura remains on the scene."

Taihua Immortal Venerable calmly said, "I just visited there. You were smart to clean up the scene beforehand, leaving no trace of Immortal Aura. Unfortunately, you were unaware that the Divine Sense of Lu's clone and main body were always connected."

Immortal Venerable Tianfeng was dumbfounded, "What does Taihua Immortal Venerable mean by this? Is his conclusion that I'm the one who attacked Lu Chen?"

When leaving, there was still a dense intent of astral power at Lu Chen's residence. He wasn't foolish; he knew that Lu's clone and main body would have a Divine Sense connection. That's why he uttered nonsense before acting.

Yet Lu directly accused him, without even a reasoning process.

Though indeed he did it, he was disguised as Chenlan Immortal Venerable, surely they should at least bring this up?

Immortal Venerable Tianfeng felt extremely awkward; revealing Chenlan's attack would be practically confessing to his involvement.

If he remained silent, Lu's accusation would stick to him.

Immortal Venerable Tianfeng then turned to the other Immortal Venerates, "Everyone, don't believe Lu. He's clearly trying to sow discord..."

Immortal Venerable Tianfeng wanted to continue speaking, but Chenlan sighed and said, "Elder Tianfeng, I earlier saw you visiting Lu Chen's residence with my own eyes."
