The protagonist of this crossover film and television series is disrupting the plot again.

Chapter 169 Cloud Feather 28

Gong Ziyu's gaze sharpened further. He slammed his hand on the table, pointed at Young Master Yue, and angrily rebuked, "You scoundrel! This whole mess is your fault."

This angry rebuke was like a thunderclap in summer, making everyone present tremble. They couldn't help but wonder: What exactly did Young Master Yue do to ruin things?

Young Master Yue looked completely bewildered, equally unaware of what he had done wrong.

"Lord Blade Master, I admit I shouldn't have fallen for the Assassin Without Edge, but matters of the heart are beyond human control. I..."

However, before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Gong Ziyu's cold and stern tone, her words sharp and decisive:

"Ten years ago, Wufeng launched a major attack on the palace gate. Although our palace gate suffered heavy losses, Wufeng was also greatly weakened. So for the next few years, the two sides were at peace and each went their own way in the martial arts world."

"But two years ago, they suddenly sent someone to sneak into the palace gates in an attempt to steal the Hundred Herbs Extract. This clearly means that someone within Wufeng was poisoned, and this person holds an extraordinary position within Wufeng. They might even be the leader of Wufeng. Otherwise, they wouldn't have gone to such lengths."

"Have you ever considered that if it had truly been the leader of Wufeng who was poisoned back then, he would most likely have died from the poisoning without the Hundred Herbs Elixir to save his life? At that time, Wufeng would have been leaderless, and how could they continue to run rampant in the martial world?"

"Even if it wasn't the leader of Wufeng who was poisoned, but another high-ranking member of Wufeng, it would still be more beneficial than harmful to the palace."

"But you, with your head full of love and romance, saw that the assassin Wufeng was a little bit pretty, and you were overcome with lust. You even staged a fake death to escape for her, and gave away Baicao Cui, indirectly saving her life."

"And now, not only do you not know you're wrong, but you also dare to talk about love and romance in front of me?"

You deserve to die!

Under Gong Ziyu's merciless rebuke, Young Master Yue's face instantly turned bright red. He held a transcendent position in the Moon Palace, second only to Elder Yue, and was highly respected. Few dared to disrespect him.

Being suddenly rebuked like this, even by someone as powerful as Gongmen Zhiren, still made him feel an unprecedented sense of humiliation and anger.

But just as he was about to explode, he heard Gong Ziyu say that he might have indirectly saved the leader of Wufeng. This news was like a sharp knife, precisely cutting through his inner defenses. His anger instantly turned into shock, and his face gradually turned from flushed to pale.

He was well aware that falling in love with Wufeng was wrong, but he had always believed that his actions had not harmed the interests of the palace. Even when his lover's fate was unknown, he still suppressed his feelings, guarded the back mountain of the palace, and fulfilled his duties.

In his view, this sacrifice and dedication is enough to make up for past mistakes and balance his inner guilt.

Therefore, for the next two years, he was able to continue being the high and mighty Young Master Yue, and enjoy the respect and admiration of the Gong family without any guilt.

But now Gong Ziyu says that he may have indirectly saved the leader of Wufeng back then.

Wouldn't he then become a traitor and sinner to the palace and even the entire martial arts world?

Unable to bear this fact, the color drained from his face in an instant, as if all his strength had been drained away. He collapsed to the ground, utterly powerless, his heart filled with unprecedented despair and self-doubt.

After a brief silence, the others immediately realized what was happening and became quite agitated.

Although they were angry that Young Master Yue had acted rashly out of love and helped the assassin Wu Feng, his actions had not caused any real damage to the palace so far, so their anger was limited.

But after hearing what Gong Ziyu said, everyone felt like killing him.

If it was Leader Wufeng who was poisoned at the time, wouldn't he have died because of Yue Gongzi's love-struck mind?

If the leader of Wufeng were to perish as a result, Wufeng would inevitably descend into chaos.

The assassins were unaware that the Crescent Flies they consumed were a tonic. Under the shadow of their leader's sudden death, they would fall into panic and suspicion, and infighting and division would be an almost inevitable outcome.

Going a step further, if the Wufeng organization were to experience severe internal turmoil and collapse, it wouldn't be impossible!

If Wufeng were to disappear, the martial world would return to peace, and the palace would no longer need to live in seclusion in the Old Dust Valley for years, where even getting a wife would take twenty years!

Upon realizing this, everyone was instantly furious and wanted to curse: Young Master Yue, you deserve to die!

Gong Yuanzheng could no longer bear it and wanted to curse Young Master Yue, but he remembered the blood oath made by the ancestors of the Gong family and the three palaces of the back mountain, that they would share the same fate, and that it would be easy for the curse to fall on him. So he simply stepped forward and gave Young Master Yue another beating.

After Gong Shangjiao pulled him away, Yue Gongzi was almost dead.

Gong Ziyu raised an eyebrow and glanced at Gong Shangjiao.

If he wasn't mistaken, the two heaviest kicks Yue Gongzi received were when Gong Shangjiao 'stopped' Gong Yuanzheng.

Gong Ziyu pretended not to see it, looked down at the dying Young Master Yue on the ground, and asked the crowd:

"What do you all think should be done with this person?"

"..."

Gong Shangjiao sneered and said decisively, "Lord Zhiren, I, Gong Shangjiao, believe that Young Master Yue has committed such a grave mistake and should be executed!"

Gong Yuanzheng echoed, "Lord Zhiren, I, Gong Yuanzheng, also believe that Young Master Yue should be executed!"

Gong Zishang glanced at the two of them, then at the paralyzed Young Master Yue, and said only, "I, Gong Zishang, have no objection!"

As Gong Zishang finished speaking, everyone turned their attention to the three elders.
