Chapter 1203: How Did You Open the Barrier?

"Several elders were present at the time, so I believe that they saw what happened clearly. Chu Yue was just trying to get the weapon back and not let it fall into Jin Lei's hands; he didn't mean to keep it for himself. This wouldn't have happened if Jin Lei didn't launch a counter-attack and Chu Yue didn't accidentally bump into him," explained Rong Xiu in a calm and relatively objective manner.

A few elders expressed their agreement as well. "He's right. That was indeed what happened back then."

"I can vouch that Chu Yue didn't do it on purpose…"

Elder Guan He frowned and retorted, "You can't just look at the surface of the matter! That's a supreme Yuan instrument after all! The Golden Wings Sect's people went out of their way to chase us all the way to Fangzhou City. Who's to know if he would take advantage of the situation to get the weapon?"

Elder Wan Zheng couldn't hold himself back anymore. "What do you mean by that, Guan He?"
