Chapter 1124

At Tian Jingzhe’s suggestion, the interest of the other gods present was also aroused. They all wanted to see just how powerful this

Arrow of Divine Punishment

would be once refined. So they began clamoring one after another!

Taishi Xiaxin felt delighted—his eyes glinting with joy—but his right hand never loosened its grip on Ye Yu’s wrist. Clearly, it was to prevent him from running away! “Ye Yu, everyone wants to see it—surely you won’t spoil the fun for everyone?” Taishi Xiaxin’s words pressed on Ye Yu, his purpose clear: he absolutely must refine this

Arrow of Divine Punishment

!

But there was one property of this item he had intentionally left unsaid. The

Arrow of Divine Punishment

was supremely yang, supremely fierce! It was the bane of Evil Gods! Should an Evil God attempt to refine it, they would suffer a violent backlash—and it was extremely likely the arrow would explode on the spot, its power enough to kill an Ancient God Realm expert. Indeed, once the seed of doubt is sown, it cannot be removed.

Taishi Xiaxin believed that Ye Yu was an Evil God. Though he did not know why Ye Yu had killed the flesh-and-blood Evil God Shen Kangren, so long as he was an Evil God, he must die! He’d be willing to expend even a mid-grade artifact to prove it.

However, Ye Yu was no fool. Taishi Xiaxin had said so much, and Ye Yu could tell he was being forced. With that, Ye Yu suddenly swept his sleeve aside, wrenching his wrist free, and said coldly, “What does the Lord of the Divine Alliance mean by this? Do you mean that if I do not refine it today, I cannot leave this hall?”

Taishi Xiaxin gave a forced, insincere smile and nodded, “And if I say yes?” At these words, all the gods present stiffened.

Their thoughts raced: “Their conversation is sounding a bit odd. They were so enthusiastic just now—why have they suddenly turned this tense?” Tian Jingzhe stepped forward, blocking the exit. “Friend Ye Yu, it seems you are being too disrespectful. The Lord of the Divine Alliance’s intentions are benevolent. Why have you refused to refine it time and again? Is it that you don’t want to... or that you dare not?”

Ye Yu could not help but laugh. Then his expression turned cold, and he shouted, “Taishi Xiaxin, Tian Jingzhe, you shameless fools! You were praising me as the hero of Wuzhong Mountain just moments ago. And now? You resort to provocation? Did you tamper with it so eagerly to force me to refine it? If that’s true, your intentions are despicable!”

Hearing this, the other gods reacted. Indeed, Tian Jingzhe and Taishi Xiaxin’s behavior was far too abnormal, completely inconsistent with their usual personas. “Could it really be... there’s something wrong?” Suspicious gazes filled the hall, and Taishi Xiaxin and Tian Jingzhe frowned. They hadn’t expected Ye Yu to lay everything bare and confront them directly—according to their plan, he should have been rattled and fled!

They exchanged glances, then finally Taishi Xiaxin stepped forward. “To be honest, I believe you lack the ability to kill Shen Kangren, so I suspect you are possessed by an Evil God. I even sensed the aura of an Evil God on you. That is why I produced the

Arrow of Divine Punishment

. Should an Evil God refine it, it will explode instantly. If not... it remains safe. So, do you dare refine it?”

Ye Yu’s expression instantly turned bewildered. “Damn, you should have said so earlier! I’d have refined it in no time!” Without another word, Ye Yu—before everyone—began refining the

Arrow of Divine Punishment

. As his divine power fully enveloped it, sudden heavenly flames surged upward, forming a true fire dragon in the sky that roared at all present.

After just a few breaths, the fire dragon dispersed, and the

Arrow of Divine Punishment

suddenly circled Ye Yu once before coming to rest steadily on his shoulder, its arrowhead pointed directly at Taishi Xiaxin and Tian Jingzhe. This signified that Ye Yu had successfully—and utterly—refined the

!

Witnessing this, Taishi Xiaxin and Tian Jingzhe both felt something was profoundly amiss. How could he so easily refine it? Could they have been mistaken—that Ye Yu was not an Evil God? Yet before Taishi Xiaxin could think further, Ye Yu spoke calmly, “Just because you can’t do something, doesn’t mean others can’t. If a Lord of the Divine Alliance lacks the heart to tolerate subordinates, that alliance is doomed to stagnate.”

“Wuzhong Mountain was indeed good, but I have no desire to stay. Fellow gods, you should plan accordingly, lest the Lord of the Divine Alliance treat you as they’ve treated me—like an Evil God!” His words struck like a blade, killing and wounding at once. The other gods’ eyes shifted—yet everything he said rang true. In the beginning, the atmosphere on Wuzhong Mountain had been excellent, and he had genuinely enjoyed it. But being suspected by Taishi Xiaxin was truly disgusting! “I hunted down an Evil God you couldn’t kill yourself, and yet you suspect me of being one? Are you insane?”

Ye Yu pushed past Taishi Xiaxin and strode ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) toward the exit. Even Tian Jingzhe stepped aside. “Well, actions speak louder than words,” they murmured. “This time, the Lord of the Divine Alliance is truly at fault. Perhaps from now on, the hearts on Wuzhong Mountain will scatter. What will become of it?” Tian Jingzhe wore a worried expression, but Ye Yu didn’t bother looking back.

Just as he was about to exit, Taishi Xiaxin called coldly, “You can’t go! I still don’t believe you’re not an Evil God!” In the next moment, a

Bell That Subdues Evil

appeared in his palm. Under the stirring of divine power, a bell’s chime rang out! The gods present frowned slightly, feeling an oppressive pressure—yet it was not unbearable. Ye Yu felt it too.

But there truly was a painful sensation... something akin to a divine beast! Little White, who had been sleeping, suddenly became frenzied, letting out a tremendous roar! Dense crimson aura swirled around its body, making Ye Yu’s entire upper half appear ruddy! Cold and brutal—this was unmistakably the aura of an Evil God!

At that moment, everyone present was stunned, Ye Yu included. Only Taishi Xiaxin wore a smile. “I was right in my gamble—you truly are an Evil God!”
