Chapter 7236
7236 Chapter 7234-
Just as elder Xu had said, he had intentionally killed people when he was present. He was looking down on the sword spring sect and him, an elder.
“Elder Xu, this junior is Huang shulang. The one who died was my brother, Cai bei. Sima Yi, he intentionally poisoned the food and killed my brother!”
When Huang shulang saw that elder Xu had personally come to question him, his heart settled. He quickly stood beside elder Xu,”Sima Yi’s mind is vicious. Elder Xu, you must be careful. Don’t fall into his trap!”
“Sima Yi! Don’t tell me you still dare to attack this Lord?”
Elder Xu hmphed coldly as he glared at Lin Yi.”Originally, killing someone would only result in elimination, but your poisoning behavior is a bit vile. If I don’t give you some punishment, I’m afraid no one will believe me!”
“Elder Xu, you really can’t blame me for this. Don’t tell me that you’re going to listen to this weasel’s side of the story without even asking? Just listen to their names, one is called weasel, the other is called Jackal. They are obviously in cahoots!”
Lin Yi spread out his hands and spoke with an innocent face,”There were so many people present. Everyone saw it with their own eyes and can testify for me. Cai bei came to snatch my food. I told him that my food was poisoned and he couldn’t eat it because it would kill him, but he didn’t believe me! What can I do? I’m also very helpless!”
The audience couldn’t help but Twitch their lips when they heard this. They thought to themselves,”what are you helpless for?!” Who would believe you?
That tone clearly made people think that he was scaring them. Who would listen to such words?
But in the end, it was proven that he wasn’t just scaring people!
Yet, you made people think that you were just scaring them. No one would believe you if you said that you didn’t do it on purpose!
“Hey, everyone, can you be my witness? did I say those words? That Cai bei didn’t listen to my advice and insisted on eating poisonous food?”
Lin Yi looked at the surrounding practitioners-it was the truth, and no one could argue with him.”Elder Xu, as you can see, everyone can testify for me. That’s why I said that Cai bei wanted to die. I couldn’t stop a person who wanted to commit suicide by taking poison even if I wanted to! Are you going to blame me for his suicide? what kind of logic is that?”
Huang shulang was about to go crazy. It wasn’t because Lin Yi said that he and Cai bei were in cahoots, but because Lin Yi had a lot of logic in his arguments. If elder Xu was convinced, then wouldn’t Lin Yi take revenge on him at any time?
“Sima Yi! It’s useless no matter how much you say. Cai bei died because he ate your food! Why are you fine eating it yourself? It was clearly you who poisoned Cai bei later and took the opportunity to kill him!”
Huang shulang’s mind could still be considered clear, and he actually exposed the heavenly secret with a single sentence, directly revealing the truth,””It’s because Cai bei saw you eat it before that he ate the poisoned food without any hesitation. You still say that you didn’t kill on purpose?!”
“Ha … That’s funny. I’m eating my own poisonous food, why would anything happen to me?”
Lin Yi looked at Huang shulang teasingly, as if he was looking at a clown. Huang shulang was speechless.
Yes, if Lin Yi had poisoned it himself, he would have the antidote, so he would be fine even if he ate poisoned food.
But who would poison their own food for no reason? Is the taste too light and poisonous?
“Elder Xu, I cultivate the body tempering poison technique, so I need to absorb some poison for cultivation. Is it strange that my food is poisonous?”
Lin Yi ignored Huang shulang and turned to elder Xu,”Besides, I’ve already warned them repeatedly that my food is poisonous. What does it have to do with me if they don’t believe me or commit suicide after?”
Huang shulang was dumbfounded. He wanted to refute Lin Yi, but Lin Yi’s reason made it impossible for him to do so!
Of course, he knew about the body strengthening poison technique, and everyone present had heard of it as well. Lin Yi’s reason was extremely strong, and it explained everything.
In this case, Cai bei could only blame his own bad luck. Of all people to Rob, why did he have to Rob the food of a martial artist who cultivated the body tempering poison technique?
It was true that the sins of the heavens could be forgiven, but the sins of one’s own self could not be lived!
Besides, after offending Lin Yi, a practitioner of the body strengthening poison technique, Huang shulang felt that his future was bleak. Was it too late to admit defeat and beg for mercy now?
“Alright, I’ve already understood what happened!”
Elder Xu frowned, still a little unhappy with Lin Yi.”No matter what, that person called … Cai bei, ultimately died after eating something that belonged to you, Sima Yi. So, according to the rules, you are the one directly responsible for his death! No matter what, you can’t get away with this!”
Huang shulang’s eyes lit up. From elder Xu’s words, it seemed like he was going to continue holding Lin Yi responsible. If he could just cancel Lin Yi’s qualifications, would he be safe?
“Elder Xu, you mean … Cai bei can still be considered as being killed by me?”
Lin Yi’s eyes turned cold. It was the truth, but his explanation was perfect. If he still didn’t let it go, then this Xu guy was picking on him!
Once it was confirmed, Lin Yi would be disqualified for killing, and it would be more troublesome!
“What’s wrong? Are you unconvinced by my words?”
Elder Xu glared at Lin Yi coldly,”This Lord’s decision isn’t something that a junior like you can casually criticize!”
Lin Yi was furious. He didn’t really care about the outer sect disciple status. If it was before, elder Xu’s strength was nothing to him. He could easily wipe out a large group of people. But now, he was being targeted by trash like this?
If it wasn’t for Wu yucao and the others, Lin Yi would’ve turned on them already. So what if they were disqualified? did they really think that outer disciples were rare?
“Elder Xu, brother Sima didn’t mean it that way. Don’t take it to heart!”
At this moment, AI fan suddenly jumped out and tried to smooth things over!
AI fan gave elder Xu a look as he spoke before turning to Lin Yi.”Brother Sima, don’t be impatient. Elder Xu is the most fair and just. There will definitely be a satisfactory solution to this matter!”
“Young master AI, what did I say?”
Lin Yi cupped his hands casually, his face calm, “I’m only explaining my innocence. Whether elder Xu will listen or not, it’s not up to me to say!”
Elder Xu hmphed coldly, clearly not satisfied with Lin Yi’s attitude.ai fan quickly stepped forward and waved his hand with a smile.”For the sake of the rules of the assessment, it’s only right for elder Xu to be stricter. However, brother Sima’s words are also reasonable. Elder Xu, please consider it properly. After all, the law is nothing more than human feelings. Everyone will be grateful for your generosity, elder Xu!”
Other than the people on Lin Yi’s side, the others were all laughing coldly in their hearts. They wanted to punish Lin Yi severely. If elder Xu really let Lin Yi go, they wouldn’t be grateful at all. Instead, they would be very unhappy.
