My Two-sided Cultivation: Starting From Collecting Experiences
Chapter 239 - 239 The Truth?239 The Truth?
“He was able to kill so many Sacred Heart disciples because of his silent poison techniques.”
“The reliability of the evidence… I’m afraid it’s not enough to prove Qin Huai’s guilt,” Li Zeshi said calmly. “As far as I know, Qin Huai’s courtyard was sealed last night. The people guarding it were the disciples of the Zhang family and the disciples of the Li family’s sixth branch, right?”
“Fourth Brother, what do you mean by that? Do you think I’m using my own son’s life to frame Qin Huai?” Li Zeming’s eyes were about to pop out of their sockets. The aura around his body soared, and his aura was terrifying like a crazy lion.
“That’s not what I meant. I’m just afraid that Sixth Brother is deceived by a traitor.” Li Zeshi looked at Zhang Wu, his meaning needless to say.
“Deceived by a traitor? I think Second Brother and Fourth Brother have been deceived by a traitor!” Li Zezhi from the third branch sneered.
“Qin Huai and Li Buchang had a conflict in the first place. When Zhang Haoyue was trying to increase Qin Huai’s pills, Li Buchang cut him off on the grounds of his contribution to the sect.
“Qin Huai was filled with resentment and poisoned him. I dare to guess that if the poison hadn’t taken effect too quickly, he would have even wanted to shift the blame to Zhang Haoyue!”
Qin Huai’s eyes were cold as he looked at Li Zeming. Before the Zhang family could speak, it was this third uncle who bit first.
“Now, there are witnesses and evidence…”
“What a bold guess. Third Uncle, do you still know your surname?”
Outside the door, a travel-worn figure walked in. She was dressed in a red dress, and her eyes were cold.
“My Li family has fallen to this state. Third Uncle, a person like you can’t escape the blame! I, Li Shaoxiang, dare to swear on my ancestors that my husband is definitely not the murderer!
“Husband is the family’s destiny! He’s the hope of the Nine Dragons sect. You are going against the heavens!”
The moment she saw Qin Huai, the coldness in her eyes turned into endless fanaticism.
Beside Li Shaoxiang was a fat middle-aged man covered in injuries.
Bang!
She threw him on the ground and said, “This person is the manager of the Fengxing Auction House, Nie Niu. I learned quite a few interesting things from him.”
Li Shaoxiang walked to Qin Huai’s side and stood beside him. “Husband, looks like I just made it.”
She wiped the blood and stains on her face. She listened to Qin Huai’s words and brought the manager, Nie Niu, over from the Fengxing Auction House.
However, when she was climbing the mountain, a few people from the Zhang family tried to stop her, which delayed her for a while.
“Speak!” She kicked Nie Niu.
When Zhang Haoyue, who was standing behind Zhang Wu, heard the words “manager of the Fengxing Auction House,” his heart skipped a beat. Why couldn’t the Fengxing Auction House protect its own manager? What were they cooking?
Nie Niu was so scared that his entire body trembled after being kicked.
“A few days ago, the Nine Dragons sect’s Zhang Wei came to me to buy the formula of nine steps gut cutting powder and the medicinal herbs for making it. This… This is the receipt he left behind when he came to buy things.”
Nie Niu hurriedly took out the evidence from his sleeve.
When Li Zeren saw this, his originally cold face gradually became lively. He looked at Qin Huai and said, “It seems like the truth is out now. The real murderer who framed Li Buchang is Zhang Xiaocai of the Zhang family.”
“Patriarch Li! Are you trying to smooth things over?” Zhang Wu suddenly flew into a rage.
“Haha, what the sect master said is reasonable… Isn’t that Zhang Xiaocai Zhang Haoyue’s famous lackey?” Li Zewu sneered. “The real mastermind is undoubtedly Zhang Haoyue.”
“Presumptuous! Li Zewu, how dare you publicly slander my Nine Dragon sect’s Eldest Senior Brother? Who in the sect doesn’t know what kind of character our Haoyue has?”
“You’re just a manager of the Fengxing Auction House, and you want to slander the eldest senior brother who has been loved by everyone in the Nine Dragons sect for ten years?”
The elders of the Zhang Clan were instantly filled with righteous indignation as they slammed the table and stood up.
For a moment, a strong wind blew in the meeting hall, as if a group of dragons were roaring angrily, causing the tea on the table to ripple.
Li Zeren’s face was already livid. “The Zhang family doesn’t care about the Li family anymore, right?”
“Li Zeren, Qin Huai’s crime is irrefutable. This child has been trying to weaken your Li family’s power ever since he entered the Nine Dragons sect. If you cover up for him, you’ll be looking down on your Li family!” Zhang Wu’s voice was cold.
“Big Brother, this time, I’m afraid that even Fifth Brother won’t be able to stand on your side.” Li Zewu and Li Zeshi stood up, then slowly approached Zhang Wu.
The third and fifth branches did not seem to care about the truth.
“Manager Nie, if you’re threatened by Qin Huai, you can be at ease and speak up,” Zhang Haoyue finally spoke. He smiled warmly at Nie Niu, who was in a sorry state.
Nie Niu’s eyes darted back and forth in panic. Obviously, even a fool could see that the Zhang family had an overwhelming advantage in terms of numbers.
Not only the Zhang family, but even half of the Li family’s six branches had become members of the Zhang family. The difference in strength was so obvious that even a fool would know which side he stood on had a higher chance of survival.
“I… Young Master Zhang, save me! I was forced!” Nie Niu suddenly shouted and pounced toward the Zhang family.
However, the Zhang family was indifferent.
“You!” Li Shaoxiang, who was behind him, glared at him angrily and broke his spine with a kick.
“Hahaha… What do you have to say now, Qin Huai?” Zhang Wu laughed smugly as he looked at the silent Qin Huai.
“Zhang Wu, don’t go too far!” A terrifying aura exploded from Li Zeren’s body.
Qin Huai raised his head and slowly swept his gaze across the third and fifth branches, including the furious Li Zeming, as well as the Zhang family members who did not hide the smugness on their faces.
In the end, he retracted his gaze and looked at Nie Niu, who was wailing in pain like a clown on the ground.
Qin Huai realized that he was wrong. No one believed the truth that he had found. They didn’t even bother to take a look.
In this world where martial arts were respected, the truth did not seem to matter.
No, the truth of this world was determined by the size of a fist.
“Qin Huai, you met Li Buchang at Green Feather Tower last night. Then, you took advantage of his surprise and poisoned him, causing him to die! Do you admit to this crime or not?!” Zhang Wu’s voice was excited.
Everyone’s gaze landed on Qin Huai.
“Caught him off guard?” Qin Huai slowly raised his head and looked at Zhang Wu and the others. “Are you ready to hear the truth?”
