Chapter 2044 - 1734: I Knew from the Beginning It Was Immortal Venerable Tianfeng

Taihua Immortal Venerable didn’t immediately answer Chenlan Immortal Venerate’s question. He said to Lu Chen, "Lu, could you release the earlier memory for Chenlan Immortal Venerate to see."

"Alright." Lu Chen directly condensed the earlier memory into a Memory Pearl, and the Memory Pearl immediately flew to Chenlan Immortal Venerate.

This...

Chenlan Immortal Venerate looked at the Memory Pearl in front of him, puzzled, not understanding what Taihua Immortal Venerable and Lu Chen were up to.

Taihua Immortal Venerable said, "Elder Chenlan, you should take a look."

Without asking more, Chenlan Immortal Venerate raised his hand, released a stream of immortal power, and activated the Memory Pearl.

After reading Lu Chen’s memory, Chenlan Immortal Venerate was somewhat confused. He said with a dark face, "Hall Master, I was always in Chenlan Hall just now. It was definitely not me who attacked Lu Chen; someone is framing me."

A person’s name instantly flashed in Chenlan Immortal Venerate’s mind, and he continued, "I know who is framing me."

Chenlan Immortal Venerate was no fool. Immortal Venerable Tianfeng had just come to see him, and then someone framed him. It was clearly intended to force him to break ties with Taihua Immortal Venerable.

Lu Chen is the couple of Xiyue Immortal Emperor. To offend Lu Chen is to abandon any plans to go to the Eastern Domain. This is obviously a conspiracy from Immortal Venerable Tianfeng.

Chenlan Immortal Venerate was instantly filled with rage; he hadn’t come to Taihua Immortal Venerable to report Immortal Venerate Tianfeng the first time, yet Immortal Venerable Tianfeng immediately turned around and framed him.

Taihua Immortal Venerable said, "I know this wasn’t your doing, but the person impersonated you specifically."

Chenlan Immortal Venerate said, "I will be straightforward. Immortal Venerable Tianfeng came to see me earlier. He wanted me to betray Heavenly Splendor Hall and prevent Heavenly Splendor Hall from moving to the Southern Domain."

Saying this, Chenlan Immortal Venerate directly released his memory. A projection appeared in the hall, showing the conversation between him and Immortal Venerable Tianfeng.

Upon seeing Chenlan Immortal Venerate’s memory, Taihua Immortal Venerable thought to himself; it was indeed as he suspected. Immortal Venerable Tianfeng wanted to drag Chenlan Immortal Venerate down, forcing him to betray Heavenly Splendor Hall.

Unfortunately, Immortal Venerable Tianfeng hadn’t anticipated Lu Chen being able to easily identify the real identity of others.

If they were unaware it was Immortal Venerable Tianfeng’s doing, they might indeed have ended up at odds with Chenlan Immortal Venerate.

Memories can be faked, but everyone’s cultivation follows different paths, and the aura they emit is also different. It’s very difficult to imitate the aura on someone else’s body, especially the lingering aura after they have made a move.

Usually, it is possible to determine who made a move by the lingering aura. If they hadn’t known initially that it was Immortal Venerable Tianfeng’s doing, Taihua Immortal Venerable would have certainly sought out Chenlan Immortal Venerate to hold him accountable.

Even if Chenlan Immortal Venerate ultimately produced memories to prove his innocence, Taihua Immortal Venerable might still not believe it, thinking the lingering aura just now was clearly left by Chenlan Immortal Venerate.

Most importantly, if Taihua Immortal Venerable believed it wasn’t Chenlan Immortal Venerate’s doing and didn’t pursue him, what would Lu Chen think?

Lu Chen would certainly think this was Heavenly Splendor Hall covering up for Chenlan Immortal Venerate. At that time, if Lu Chen whispered to Xiyue Immortal Emperor, their Heavenly Splendor Hall could forget about going to the Eastern Domain.

So whether or not Chenlan Immortal Venerate did it, to account to Lu Chen, they might still end up pinning this on Chenlan Immortal Venerate.

But fortunately, Lu Chen knew from the start that the one attacking him was Immortal Venerable Tianfeng, which thwarted Immortal Venerable Tianfeng’s scheme.

Chenlan Immortal Venerate then said, "Obviously, Immortal Venerable Tianfeng impersonated me, trying to drag me down. Although I do not know how he mimicked my fist intent, given Immortal Venerable Tianfeng has lived for several billion years, having some special means is not surprising."

Hearing Chenlan Immortal Venerate’s explanation, Taihua Immortal Venerable didn’t speak. His gaze turned to Lu Chen.

Now, Lu Chen’s attitude is the most important. As the one who was attacked, as long as Lu Chen speaks, Taihua Immortal Venerable is ready to immediately gather other Immortal Venerates to deal with the traitor Immortal Venerable Tianfeng.

Seeing Taihua Immortal Venerable not speaking and instead looking at Lu Chen, a hint of displeasure flashed across Chenlan Immortal Venerate’s face. As an Immortal Venerate, Chenlan Immortal Venerate had the dignity of an Immortal Venerate.

Heavenly Splendor Hall, after all, is an Overlord Level power, and now they have to do things based on the face of a mere Immortal Monarch Level clone of Lu Chen.

At other times, an Immortal Monarch Level clone would be killed without hesitation, indifferent whether it was his doing or not.

Taihua Immortal Venerable, as the Hall Master of Heavenly Splendor Hall, is lowering his stance so much; it’s truly humiliating.

Despite his inner displeasure, Chenlan Immortal Venerate remained rational. He proactively said to Lu Chen, "Lu, if you do not believe me, you can call the disciples of Chenlan Palace to perform Soul Search; I have been supervising them as they pack up items."

Lu Chen said, "There’s no need. I knew from the start that it was Immortal Venerable Tianfeng."

Listening to Lu Chen’s words, Chenlan Immortal Venerate was stunned for a moment. Lu Chen knew it was Immortal Venerable Tianfeng?

Thus, Taihua Immortal Venerable called him here intending to test whether he had thoughts of betraying Heavenly Splendor Hall?

Chenlan Immortal Venerate solemnly looked at Taihua Immortal Venerable and asked, "Hall Master, what are your next plans?"

Chenlan Immortal Venerate was thinking that since they now know Immortal Venerable Tianfeng betrayed Heavenly Splendor Hall, the next step is to expel Immortal Venerable Tianfeng from Heavenly Splendor Hall to prevent him from causing harm secretly.

Taihua Immortal Venerable looked at Chenlan Immortal Venerate and said, "Immortal Venerable Tianfeng not only betrayed Heavenly Splendor Hall but also maliciously tried to kill Lu’s clone to incite Xiyue Immortal Emperor’s dissatisfaction with Heavenly Splendor Hall, and even framed you. What do you think should be done?"

Chenlan Immortal Venerate said, "Then let him be expelled from Heavenly Splendor Hall."

Taihua Immortal Venerable said, "Does Elder Chenlan think merely expelling him is enough?"

"Has Elder Chenlan not considered if Immortal Venerable Tianfeng’s conspiracy really succeeded, what disaster it would bring to Heavenly Splendor Hall?"

"Heavenly Splendor Hall is already at death’s door with Blood Eagle Hall. If they also enraged Xiyue Immortal Emperor, then Tianyan Immortal Domain will no longer have a place for Heavenly Splendor Hall."

Taihua Immortal Venerable said, "Traitors must die!"

Upon hearing Taihua Immortal Venerable’s resolute words, Chenlan Immortal Venerate fell silent for a moment. He understood why Taihua Immortal Venerable was so insistent on eliminating Immortal Venerable Tianfeng; it was to make a show for Lu Chen.

However, Taihua Immortal Venerable’s words weren’t entirely unjustified. Immortal Venerable Tianfeng indeed nearly brought greater calamity to Heavenly Splendor Hall.

Although Chenlan Immortal Venerate didn’t wish to act at this critical juncture, since it was for Lu Chen to see, he had no choice but to remove Immortal Venerable Tianfeng.

Chenlan Immortal Venerate then said, "The Hall Master is right; Immortal Venerable Tianfeng nearly brought disaster upon Heavenly Splendor Hall. It truly cannot be let go."

Taihua Immortal Venerable said, "Since Elder Chenlan also agrees with my viewpoint, I will now gather other Elders; we cannot let Immortal Venerable Tianfeng escape."

As his words fell, Taihua Immortal Venerable sent messages to the other Immortal Venerates of Heavenly Splendor Hall.

And Lu Chen stood beside, quietly watching Taihua Immortal Venerable’s performance.
