Level 2 Witch Treasure True Word Pearl

Behind the Zun Sheng, an Qian Family Old Ancestor squinted and slowly said, "In fact, the ' Qian Heaven ' Domain is not owned by the Qian Family alone. As far as I know, the Tongguan Prefecture Scripture Repository also has a copy, which was left by an ancestor of the Qian Family."

"I've heard that this Northern Guard Deputy Prefect once secluded himself in the Scripture Repository of Tongguan Prefecture for several days. Perhaps he viewed the ' Qian Heaven ' Domain and secretly gave it to Demonic Cultivator, then framed my Qian Family..."

Before he could finish speaking, Wu Shi Wu Shi said, "The external martial arts and secret techniques stored in the Tongguan Prefecture Scripture Repository throughout the ages will leave a mark on the viewer, and they must not be passed on. In the hundreds of thousands of Ancient Domain, I have never heard of anyone who has been able to pass on the secret techniques of the Tongguan Prefecture Scripture Repository Pavilion."

Zun Sheng nodded upon hearing this. "That is true. I have also set foot in that place and was marked with a mark that has not disappeared to this day. So, the leak of the ' Qian Heaven ' Domain secret technique can only have come from within the Qian Family?"

Qian Baisheng was somewhat anxious and hurriedly said, "Your Zun Sheng, if I may speak disrespectfully, even if my Qian Family were to collude with Demonic Cultivator, we would certainly not use the ' Qian Heaven ' Domain as payment or price. At most..."

Kun Haori seized upon the loophole in his words and quickly said, "Oh, so your Qian Family really did collude with Demonic Cultivator?"

"Young man of the Kun Family, what nonsense are you spouting!"

"Kun Changkong, control your Kun Family members! Stop spouting nonsense here!"

Many Qian Family were anxious.

The Kun Family Martial Saint immediately retorted, "What the Kun Family does and says is none of your business, Qian Family. You did dirty things and now that they've been exposed, you can't blame anyone else."

"Hmph! Without solid evidence, the Qian Family will not accept such baseless accusations!"

The Zun Sheng turned to look at Lin Yi and asked, "Besides the Demonic Cultivator from earlier, do you have any other evidence?"

Lin Yi said, "No."

The Zun Sheng then asked, "Then why did you kill that Demonic Cultivator in public?"

Clearly, Lin Yi's action of killing that Demonic Cultivator was illogical.

Lin Yi, who was already prepared, spoke up, "Reporting to Your Zun Sheng, Qin have been searching for demonic traces in the Northern Domain for the past few days, working day and night. After much hardship, I finally captured that Demonic Cultivator Demonic Cultivator. After some interrogation, I learned from him that he was colluding with the Qian Family. I was filled with resentment and wanted to bring him to the Dragon Phoenix Banquet to expose the Qian Family's evil deeds..."

"You're talking nonsense!"

"The Demonic Cultivator is dead! This is slander!"

Upon hearing this, several Qian Family of the Qian Family were about to speak up and insult Lin Yi when the Zun Sheng waved his sleeve, silencing them.

"Go on!"

"Yes, after I arrived at the Dragon Phoenix Banquet, I had this Demonic Cultivator cultivator chant the ' Qian Heaven ' secret technique in public, just to see the Qian Family's reaction. The Qian Family reacted excitedly to what the Demonic Cultivator said, obviously trying to hide something. At that time, I was secretly pleased, thinking that I could punish the Qian Family. I never expected that my master would suddenly transmit a message to me, telling me to kill that Demonic Cultivator."

Lin Yi suddenly looked at Bi Wu Shi.

When Wu Shi Wu Shi, he couldn't help but frown.

Clearly, Lin Yi had once again shifted the blame onto him and dragged him into the mess.

Damn, his apprentice is really cunning, making him clean up his messes twice in a row.

The Zun Sheng One nodded, looking at the Wu Shi behind the Bride, as if asking if he had done this.

Wu Shi could say Wu Shi, only nodding silently.

After all, suppressing the prestige of the Qian Family was also part of his plan.

Lin Yi continued, "The Qian Family is powerful and one of the pillars of the Ancient Domain. I suspect Qin master was worried that there was more to the matter of the Demonic Cultivator than met the eye, which could cause chaos in the Ancient Domain. That's why he wanted me to make a big deal out of it. However, Qin didn't expect that this move would attract the Qian Family's attention, and Brother Baisheng would actually disregard the fact that tonight is the Dragon and Dragon Phoenix Night Banquet and attack me with all his might. As the Deputy Prefecture Lord of Tong Pass Qin, I couldn't lose face for Tongguan Prefecture in front of everyone, so I had no choice but to retaliate, which is why I've disturbed everyone's enjoyment of the banquet."

After saying this, Lin Yi cupped his hands to the many Martial Saint present and said, "I, Qin, am sorry for this matter!"

Upon hearing Lin Yi's explanation, many Martial Saint present exclaimed, "So that's how it is. No wonder this matter seems so strange."

"It seems the Qian Family really did secretly raise Demonic Cultivator, but they actually dared to pass on the ' Qian Heaven ' Domain to them Demonic Cultivator... they're really bold..."

The Zun Sheng cleared up the misunderstandings of the Qian Family and asked, "Your Qian Family should give an explanation for this matter."

At this moment, even the Martial Saint of the Qian Family's first branch was somewhat stunned and began to suspect that some clansmen were secretly raising Demonic Cultivator. After all, Lin Yi's explanation was basically flawless, and there was also the iron-faced and Wushi Deputy Prefecture Lord to corroborate it.

Even if their own people were responsible for the current situation, they cannot admit it.

An old Martial Saint from the Qian Family said, "Your Zun Sheng, my Qian Family would never collude with Demonic Cultivator. This is an outrage against both gods and men in the Ancient Domain. Moreover, although Deputy Prefect Qin's words can explain why he killed the Demonic Cultivator, they are entirely his own words."

Lin Yi slowly spoke, "Senior, can't the ' Qian Heaven ' secret technique recited by the Demonic Cultivator be considered evidence?"

The veteran Martial Saint argued, "In fact, the ' Qian Heaven ' secret technique has been leaked many times in the history of my Qian Family. It's nothing for a Demonic Cultivator to master the ' Qian Heaven ' secret technique."

Just then, Qian Baisheng suddenly remembered something and hurriedly said, "I know that the Nangong Family has a secret treasure that can distinguish the truth from falsehood in other people's words. Clan Leader Nangong, please take out this treasure and verify the words of this Deputy Prefect Qin."

Among the group of Martial Saint, a slender, scholarly-looking Martial Saint stepped forward. He wore a purple silk robe and exuded nobility. He was none other than Nangong Yunmiao, the Clan Leader of the Nangong Family in this generation.

Although she was over thirty years old, Nangong Yunmiao powerful, being Martial Saint Sixth Realm Perfection.

Lin Yi's gaze fell on Nangong Yunmiao, and his eyebrows rose. He sensed that the aura of this Nangong Clan Leader was not pure, and seemed to have the aura of a Mage.

Could this person be a practitioner of both martial arts and Mage?

The Ancient Domain reveres martial arts and vehemently rejects all other traditions and professions.

Furthermore, the Southern Domain is extremely far from the Ancient Domain, and it is unknown how Nangong Yunmiao came into contact with the Mage inheritance.

"Lord Qin, on behalf of my family disciple Nangong Ling, I apologize to you."

Nangong Yunmiao stepped forward and bowed, her face bearing a smile, but her words concealed a strange hostility.

Lin Yi was not surprised, after all, the Seventeenth Tong Pass commander he had killed Nangong Ling, was from the Nangong Family. At the time, he had even threatened the Nangong Family with Tong Pass Nangong Ling's secrets about Tongguan Qian to stop investigating and holding them accountable for Nangong Ling's death.

However, because of this, the Nangong Family probably already suspected that Nangong Ling's death was related to him.

"Qin am also deeply saddened by the passing of Nangong."

"He was a man who deserved to die, Lord Qin should not mourn him."

Nangong Yunmiao smiled, and then took out a jade bead that was shimmering with black gas in front of everyone.

"Gentlemen, this is a rare treasure from the Southern Domain. It can verify the truth of people's words. It is a treasure of my Nangong Family. Since Brother Zhou Sheng has made a request, I will take it out."

Nangong Yunmiao then said to Lin Yi, "Lord Qin, as long as you touch this object and say a word, the treasure will be able to show the truth or falsehood of your words through color. If the Black Qi inside turns red, it is true; if it turns white, it is false."

At this moment, Kun Haori questioned, "Could this extraordinary treasure be a fake?"

Nangong Yunmiao said, "Guardian Kun, rest assured, this treasure has never been lost. If you don't believe me, you can ask the Zun Sheng. Five years ago, the Zun Sheng lent this item out."

The Zun Sheng nodded and said, "This treasure comes from the Thirty-Six Star Tower in the Southern Domain. Even a Martial Saint Nine Realms cannot escape the treasure's detection ability unless the internal rules are disrupted."

"Deputy Prefect Qin, it's up to you now!"

Qian Baisheng was unaware of Qian Hengsheng's ambition and was extremely confident in his family, so he believed that the claim of colluding with Demonic Cultivator was completely unfounded and a frame-up by Lin Yi.

He hurriedly handed the jade bead containing black gas to Lin Yi, eager to immediately prove the innocence of the Sui family.

Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, Lin Yi accepted the black jade bead.

[True Spirit Pearl - Grade 1 Shaman Artifact]: Infused with a small amount of Truth-Telling Blood, it can detect the truth or falsehood of all things in heaven and earth. However, this item is slightly damaged, and its current production is limited. It can only detect the truth or falsehood of human speech...

After reading the System's description of the black jade bead, Lin Yi couldn't help but sigh. This item was indeed Witch Treasure forged by Mage, and it was an item of the same level as the Devouring Heart that he had once forged.

Seeing Lin Yi holding the black jade bead without speaking, Qian Baisheng's confidence grew, and he urged, "Deputy Prefect Qin, are you perhaps afraid to test it?"

Lin Yi looked at him and slowly said, "Of course not, but after Qin finish my test, if your Qian Family really colludes with Demonic Cultivator, what should we do?"

Qian Baisheng sneered, "Hmph! If what you say is true, then I, Qian Baisheng to you to apologize, and then sever my heart meridian to commit suicide, to atone for the ordinary people slaughtered by the Demonic Cultivator."

Lin Yi immediately shook his head. At this moment, he was certain that Qian Baisheng in front of him was probably unaware of some of the dirty secrets of the Qian Family.

Then, in front of everyone, Lin Yi tightly gripped the True Spirit Pearl, recalled certain scenes from the Northern Domain, and then solemnly declared, "Qin, have discovered that the Qian Family is colluding with Demonic Cultivator. This is not a false accusation, but a fact!"

After he finished speaking, the gas inside the jade bead in Lin Yi's hand surged and gradually turned blood red.

Immediately, the surrounding Martial Saint exclaimed in surprise, "Red! It's real! Deputy Prefect Qin's words are true!"

Seeing this scene, Qian Baisheng suddenly turned pale, feeling as if the world was collapsing, and shook his head in disbelief.

"Impossible! How could my Qian Family collude with Demonic Cultivator? Could this bead be...?"

Seeing Qian Baisheng looking dejected, Nangong Yunmiao frowned and said, "Brother Sheng, with the Zun Sheng here, how could I dare to deceive you all with fakes?"

At this moment, Kun Haori, "Haha, Qian Baisheng, you should kill yourself!"

The Qian Family's Eight-Realm Ancestor roared, "Kun Family junior, are you courting death?!"

Qian Baisheng is the most outstanding young member of the Qian Family at present. He is exceptionally talented and has been given extremely high expectations. How could he commit suicide!

Kun Haori scoffed, "Old man, he said he would commit suicide himself, no one forced him!"

"Hmph, there must be some hidden story behind this. Even if other members of the Qian Family are colluding with Demonic Cultivator, it has nothing to do with Zhou Sheng!"

The Eight-Realm Ancestor hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Your Zun Sheng, please allow my Qian Family to investigate this matter ourselves. We will certainly give you all an explanation, and we will also give Deputy Prefect Qin a pardon."

Before the Zun Sheng could reply, Qian Baisheng was in a daze, used the Qian Heaven Finger, flicking his wrist towards his brow, as if he was about to commit suicide.

At this moment, even Lin Yi was surprised. Could this Qian Baisheng be a pure-hearted fool?

He said he would commit suicide, and he really did!

At this moment, a soft sigh suddenly came from all around. In the void, an old man's figure appeared like ripples in front of Qian Baisheng and grabbed his wrist.

"Foolish child, this has nothing to do with you!"

"Ancestor!"

"It's the Ancestor!"

Upon seeing the figure of the old man, all the Martial Saint of the Qian Family in the arena knelt down in respect, their expressions filled with excitement.

Clearly, the visitor was Qian Poqiong, the longest-lived Qian Family Old Ancestor the Qian Family family, who is said to have lived for over two thousand years and whose martial arts prowess had reached its peak.
