Chapter 58: Brother Forged The Crime Scene

After placing the spiritual stones inside his storage bag, Ye Anping took a deep breath, lifted into the air on his flying sword, and quickly scanned the surroundings with his spiritual sense. After confirming that there were no witnesses around, he pulled out a bunch of fire and thunder talismans from his storage bag.

Just as Feng Yu Die had said before, she was kidnapped after going out with him.

Bai Yuexin knew about this, and Feng Yu Die should have been seen by the ***Black Star*** Sect patrols when she came out of the sect compound.

So, once the news about the kidnapping reached ***Black Star*** and they started to investigate, he would become the number one suspect and the only suspect.

This matter was not something that Bai Yuexin could mediate for him, nor could he get away by showing the ***Hundred Lotus*** Sect Young Master's ID tablet.

If he were to return now, he would definitely be arrested and interrogated by the ***Black Star*** Crime Department, and his father and mother would also be invited from the ***Hundred Lotus*** Sect to assist.

So, in order to erase all suspicions...

Ye Anping mulled it over for a while, activated all the meridians in his body, then waved and threw the two stacks of talismans around.

Two hundred talismans drifted down in all directions as if they were falling petals in a dense forest in autumn.

Ye Anping gritted his teeth and poured all the spiritual energy in his dantian into the two hundred talismans.

In an instant, lightning and fire enveloped the entire sky above **Willow Moon Lake**.

These were all low-level talismans drawn by himself, but they added up to a lot. Together, these two hundred pieces were enough to defeat a cultivator in the late *Foundation Building* in one blow. The magic used to forge the traces of the late-stage *Foundation Building* cultivators was almost impossible to see through.

As the spiritual power in his dantian was drained and consumed by those talismans, Ye Anping no longer had the energy to control their direction.

Boom---!!

Countless lightning and fireballs, like the tentacles of an octopus, crashed into the lake below, causing the pavilion to collapse.

For a moment, the sun that illuminated the blue sky was shadowed by thunder and fire.

Of course, Ye Anping himself was affected by the fire and lightning talismans in his proximity.

Bang--

As the momentum subsided, he also fell freely from the flying sword, smashing the ground into a crater and sending the soil and dust flying.

"Hiss... hoo..."

Lying on the ground, Ye Anping was panting like a cow, and there was still a glow lingering on his body after being hit by the lightning. His clothes were in a sorry state with several large holes torn out.

After recovering a bit, he quickly touched the ground with his palms, guiding the lightning energy in his body to Mother Earth, and then rolled around twice to extinguish the flames on his clothes.

Once he was done, he relaxed completely, rested for a while, and finally regained a shred of strength to stand up.

Trembling, Ye Anping got up from the pit and looked at his masterpiece.

The pavilion where he and Feng Yu Die were staying just now collapsed completely, and the willow trees that were originally neatly arranged around it were now crumbling here and there. The most excessive of all was the **Willow Moon Lake**, which was about two or three acres in size.

The lake was littered with upside-down white-bellied carp, either electrocuted or simply fried.

The whole lake was like a big pot of steaming fish soup, and the water was almost boiling.

"It's a little overdone, eh..."

Ye Anping took a deep breath, then pulled his right arm with force to reattach the dislocated joint, swallowed a medium-grade Energy Gathering Pill from his storage bag, and sat down in Lotus position, closing his eyes to regulate his breathing.

Dong Dong---

At this moment, the sound of heavy footsteps reached his ears.

Ye Anping opened his eyes and found an adult brown bear staring covetously at him from a distance. It seemed that what he just did accidentally disturbed the animals living here.

He didn't have the strength to fight a bear now, though.

After thinking for a moment, Ye Anping raised his finger, pointed at the lake, and said, "I made fish soup for you, go!"

The brown bear seemed to understand, followed his finger to look at the belly-up carps on the lake, and then looked at Ye Anping. In its heart, it estimated that eating the fish seemed to be a little bit more cost-effective, so it turned around and walked toward the edge of the lake.

...

**Willow Moon Lake** was pretty far away from the ***Black Star*** Sect town, and since the town was quite noisy, although many people heard the "boom" from the southwest, they basically didn't pay attention. They thought that most likely some stupid cultivator blew up the furnace when experimenting with alchemy.

At this time, Bai Yuexin was crouching in front of the physiotherapy center, waiting for Ye Anping to come back and open his business.

"Sister Bai, why are you crouching at the door?"

"Huh? Brother Chen." Seeing that he was a fellow disciple, Bai Yuexin hurriedly explained. "Anping is out now. He is not here. Brother Chen, if you want physiotherapy, you may have to wait a while."

"He went out? All right, I'm fine anyway."

With a shrug, Brother Chen crossed the threshold, only to see that there were already five or six people sitting inside the lobby of the physiotherapy center.

And they all knew each other.

One of the sisters greeted him when she saw him. "Brother Chen, you also came for physiotherapy today?"

"What's going on? Has Young Master Ye been away for a long time?"

Another sister took a sip of tea and said, "Sister Bai said that Young Master Ye just went out for a walk with 'that one' and will be back in a while."

"That one?"

Another disciple said in a low voice, "It's that girl who defeated Sister Bai in the sword test before, the one with silver hair. I think her name is Feng or something..."

Brother Chen realized. "No wonder Sister Bai looks so sad... eh--"

He turned his head to look at Bai Yuexin, who was guarding the door, then found an empty seat and sat down, waiting for Ye Anping to return.

And just when his butt touched the stool, Bai Yuexin, who was crouching at the door, suddenly stood up in horror and rushed out.

"Huh? Anping?!"

Hearing her panicked voice, the people in the room looked at each other and immediately realized that something happened. They stood up in unison and rushed outside.

Then, everyone saw Ye Anping with several burn holes in his clothes and covered in injuries.

Ye Anping's expression was quite calm, but his legs were limp, and he could barely stand with the help of a thick branch.

Bai Yuexin stepped forward quickly to support him and asked, "Anping, why are you injured so badly? Who hurt you?"

"That's right, Young Master Ye. Who beat you like this? Cultivators are forbidden to fight privately within the perimeter of the ***Black Star*** Sect. Who is so lawless?"

A sister who also came forward frowned and rolled her sleeves as if she wanted to avenge Ye Anping.

Brother Chen had the highest seniority here, so he asked the other disciples to be quiet and came closer to check Ye Anping's injuries.

"Fortunately, there are no bone injuries." He took his weight from Bai Yuexin, letting Ye Anping lean on him, and asked, "Young Master Ye, what happened?"

Ye Anping didn't expect there to be so many people. After a pause, he blurted out the words he had already thought up.

"Earlier, Miss Feng and I were walking and chatting by the **Willow Moon Lake** when a masked man suddenly attacked us. We fought hard, but in the end, Miss Feng was taken away by that man."

Everyone was shocked. "What?"

Brother Chen lowered his eyes to think for a while, then started organizing his thoughts. "Sister Bai, you take Young Master Ye to the sect and find Doctor Zhou to treat his wounds. I'll take the other disciples to **Willow Moon Lake** to take a look and see if we can find something."

"Ah... Okay."

Bai Yuexin nodded in dismay. She wanted to hug Ye Anping, but seeing that his body was covered in wounds, she didn't know where to put her hands so she wouldn't hurt him.

Although he was the one who was injured, she felt as if the pain was in her own body.

Biting her upper lip, she carefully picked up Ye Anping, then summoned the flying sword and flew with him toward the main peak of the ***Black Star*** Sect.
