At the mention of this, everyone was reminded of the incident that Wagner had brought up before.
Fade immediately realized what they were trying to do. They were trying to make things difficult for him by exposing him for secretly learning their skills.
Though knowing this fact, he still didn't lie and answered truthfully, "Yes, I did use the Tianwu First Sword."
"Well, so you've admitted it. Do you want to explain yourself? You've stolen the secret technique of the Tianwu Lian!" Gotzel questioned him.
Fade replied calmly, "Stolen? You're mistaken.
I did not steal that technique from you."
You're lying!"
"If you did not steal that technique from us, then how did you learn it? This skill would only be passed down to the core disciples of the Tianwu Clan."
Gotzel stared at him as he continued questioning Fade.
Fade merely answered nonchalantly, "I just learnt it after seeing it a few times."
"You've seen it a few times, yet you're saying that you did not learn it secretly!” Gotzel shouted.
"You've misunderstood. It was the Tianwu Clan who allowed me to observe it," Fade said.
"As for stealing that skill, it must be a joke. I would never bother to steal such an ordinary skill."
"Lies, all lies!" Gotzel roared. "The secret technique of the Tianwu Clan has always been guarded well. How could you be invited to watch it?"
"Even if we really did invite you, we would've kept a record. However, I don't remember seeing your name anywhere."
Fade frowned and fell speechless for a moment.
He had managed to learn the Tianwu First Sword because the old fogey was the one who took him to the Tianwu Clan. He didn't purposely learn it.
If he told them about the old fogey, things would naturally clear up.
However, it would also expose the fact that he was Aldred's disciple. Thus, he was slightly hesitant at that.
Despite this, from the other's perspective, Fade was hesitating because he had been caught red-handed and had no words left to defend himself.
Even Yura and Sanna were staring at him in disbelief. They couldn't imagine that he had lied to them.
"You have nothing left to say." Gotzel snorted as he stood up. "Then, I shall deal with this matter, as the leader of the Tianwu Clan!"
After he finished speaking, positive energy surged around his body as he stepped towards Fade, glaring at him.
"According to the rules of the Tianwu Clan, we will destroy your Dantian abdomen and your limbs for stealing our skills, and you will never ever be allowed anywhere near Tianwu Mountain."
"Get over here and accept your punishment!"
With a thunderous roar, Gotzel's energy burst out and aimed straight at Fade.
Fade frowned instantly. He was still wondering whether he should tell them about his master or fight against them.
However, this made the others misunderstand him even more. They started chattering amongst themselves.
"Fade has nothing left to say!"
"It was all a bunch of lies. What a liar."
"Not only did he lie, he also bragged a lot. What a joke; he even claimed that he had managed to learn that technique after watching it several times."
"Now that he's been exposed, he'll have to bear the consequences."
"He deserves it."
"What a pity. Monash was such a talented man from the Guo family but he was killed by
