Unwavering Until Death? Faithful to One Alone?
Li Zi commented: [Wen Yun's skin is too thick! Even after being exposed in public, he still acts like he's deadbeat.]
This criticism is spot on.
Gong Lin sneered, "That day, my disciples and I encountered Devil Race on our way down the mountain. You killed my fellow disciples and took me away. Do you admit to this?"
Wen Yun put a hand to his forehead, as if he had heard a joke.
"Anyone actually believes that?"
He lowered his head and chuckled softly.
Suddenly, I sensed something was off about the atmosphere in the arena.
Looking up, he saw that the powerful figures around him all looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
The Flying Immortal Sect Master Sect's expression turned serious. "Pavilion Master Wen Yun, this matter concerns the Immortal-Demon War a hundred years ago. Please answer truthfully."
Wen Yun's heart sank suddenly.
What happened?
This group of people actually suspected him of having ties with the Devil Race?
He hasn't given himself away all these years.
It is because...
His clear, cold gaze fell upon Gong Lin.
"Gentlemen," he chuckled self-deprecatingly, letting out a seemingly helpless sigh.
"Gong Lin had a past with my wife. He might slander and defame me because of our past relationship. I hope everyone can be rational and not be led astray by those with ill intentions."
Usually, after saying these words, the Cultivator would apologize to him.
Why is there absolutely no reaction today?
The powerful figures present didn't exchange any words; they simply stared intently at him, as if they had already condemned him.
For no apparent reason, Wen Yun felt a little uneasy.
He had a bad feeling.
But clearly, he had arranged everything flawlessly, and the woman had already returned to the Devil Race, promising not to bother him again.
The Flame Hall Elder said coldly, "Pavilion Master Wen Yun, can you answer a few questions for me?"
Wen Yun had mentally prepared herself, and her expression remained calm, without any suspicious emotions.
"Random."
The Flame Hall Elder asked, "Pavilion Master Wen Yun, after you became dao companion with Sect Master Huo Fei, were you loyal to her?"
Wen Yun nodded without hesitation, "Yes, Fei Fei is the only one in my life, there is no one else."
He was frank and open, answering without hesitation.
Some powerful individuals began to doubt their own judgment.
Did the system really misunderstand this time?
Chapter 28 Unwavering Loyalty Until Death?
Li Zi was already cursing in his heart.
[That bastard! He's shameless! He just finished having sex with the women in his harem before he came here, and that woman hasn't even gotten out of her bed yet, waiting for him to come home and do it a few more times. And he actually has the nerve to say that he only has Senior Huo Fei in his life!]
She cursed through gritted teeth, completely unaware that her disciples whispered amongst themselves before one of them flew away on Sword Flight.
The disciple went to the Main Hall and delivered the message; several powerful figures then quietly left the scene.
The crowd began to whisper among themselves, and Li Zi's inner complaints had spread throughout the entire square.
Seeing the whispers among the people, Wen Yun assumed her words had worked and a smile crept onto her lips.
His acting skills are impeccable.
Looking again at Gong Lin, who was surrounded by the crowd, a terrifying killing intent flashed in his eyes.
In his heart, he had already sentenced Gong Lin to death.
The subordinates failed to keep a Gong Lin, allowing him to escape and causing trouble.
This time it won't be like that. He will take Gong Lin away, personally break his arms and legs, and make him suffer a painful death.
His connection with the Devil Cultivator must absolutely not be exposed!
The Flame Hall Elder's expression was cold and stern. "Wen Yun, did you kill the Flame Hall Disciple who followed Gong Lin down the mountain back then?"
Wen Yun's indifferent gaze swept over Gong Lin.
He said calmly, "No."
Anyway, those are all things without evidence.
The elder of the Flame Hall then asked, "When our Sect disciples investigated the scene, they found traces of your Spiritual Power. How do you explain that?"
Wen Yun frowned. "Why would I kill your Sect's disciples for no reason? It's ridiculous. Do you think I, as the Pavilion Master of the Painting Pavilion, have nothing better to do?"
Li Zi Wen Yun's nonchalant attitude, Li Zi's blood pressure spiked.
[System, something that happened so many years ago, really, there's not a single trace left? Absolutely no evidence?]
Looking at the scene, she suddenly understood Huo Fei's helplessness back then.
With Wen Yun's shamelessness and acting skills, who could possibly see through his hypocritical nature?
Even when faced with questioning from a crowd of heroes, he remained calm and composed, his words perfectly succinct.
[There is evidence. When Wen Yun committed the murder, a Mirror Moon Flower grew nearby. The Mirror Moon Flower had a recording function when it bloomed, and it should still be growing there now. The entire process of Wen Yun's murder was recorded.]
Li Zi scratched the back of his head, hesitatingly asking, "Senior brother, this murder scene..."
Before he could finish speaking, his senior brother flew away on his Sword Flight, transforming into a streak of light and disappearing from sight.
Li Zi, "..."
She ran away before she even finished speaking?
She turned to look at another senior student.
The senior brother smiled at her, "The Sect Master leader just sent word that we should re-examine the scene where Senior Wen Yun made his move back then."
Li Zi gave a thumbs up, "Truly visionary."
That makes sense; they're all seasoned veterans who've lived for hundreds of years, so they must have thought things through very thoroughly.
She thought for a moment, her eyes clear and bright, her voice crisp and clear, "Senior brother, let's check the nearby spiritual herbs; we might make an unexpected discovery."
The senior brother smiled and ruffled Li Zi's hair, "Don't worry, junior sister."
Here, all the Sect Master have arranged for their disciples to go to the scene to investigate.
