Chapter 690 Sinner? Hero?
The great elder was silent for a moment, listening to the discussions everywhere becoming more and more obvious.
"quiet!"
In an instant, the whole place was silent.
The great elder stared straight at Feng Wuchen with his old eyes: "Your name is Lu Ran?"
Feng Wuchen nodded: "Exactly!"
The great elder asked again: "What you just said that you are not guilty means that you have not betrayed the sect, right?"
Feng Wu continued to nod: "Yes!"
"Then please explain why the guarding disciples outside the secret pavilion died tragically?"
Feng Wuchen looked indifferent and said: "When I rushed to the secret pavilion, several fellow apprentices had already been killed. It was not me who killed them."
Upon hearing this, everyone shook their heads.
Obviously, this rhetoric could not convince them.
"Haha... is it really such a coincidence? You rushed to the scene just after those disciples were killed, and they happened to die under the Shocking Wind and Drizzle Sword, which you are best at?"
Feng Wuchen smiled sarcastically: "Theoretically, there won't be such a coincidence, but if someone plans hard and is determined to put the blame on the disciples, then maybe... After all, although the Jingfeng Drizzle Sword is biased,
sect, but apart from me, it’s not like there are no other people cultivating in the entire Wuzong.”
As soon as Feng Wuchen finished speaking, the Great Elder took over the conversation: "But except for you, the other disciples who practice the Shocking Wind and Drizzle Sword all have alibi!"
Feng Wuchen suddenly turned his head and looked somewhere at the elders' table: "What about the people other than the disciples?"
After hearing these words, Li Rusong was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and his hair suddenly exploded: "That's nonsense! You are such a mouthful! As an elder of the Wuzong, how could I do something worse than a pig like you!"
Seeing Li Rusong being so excited, the amusement in Feng Wuchen's eyes became even more intense: "Why are elders Rusong so excited? I didn't say it was you... After all, the one who knows the Shocking Wind and Drizzle Sword is Master, too.
, he’s not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry?”
At this moment, the crowd's attention gradually began to shift.
That's right... the Shocking Wind and Drizzle Sword is a martial art of Jianming Island. As Tao masters and guardian elders, Xu Jing and Li Rusong naturally know it well.
However, Xu Jing remained calm at this moment, but frowned slightly, thinking about something, while Li Rusong acted a little too aggressively.
At that moment, feeling the strange looks from around him, cold sweat began to break out on Li Rusong's forehead.
I thought in my heart: It’s broken!
He began to regret vaguely.
If he had known that this boy was so difficult to deal with, he would have killed him when he was in the void, even if he took risks.
At that moment, a trace of guilt appeared in Zihan's eyes: "Could it be...could it be that I really blamed him wrongly?"
The great elder looked at Feng Wuchen and Li Rusong pointedly, and then asked: "The death of the disciple guarding the secret pavilion is indeed suspicious. During this time, no one witnessed you killing someone! This crime can be discussed later.
,but……"
At this point, the great elder's voice suddenly stopped.
Immediately afterwards, his right hand spread slightly, and a Nai Ring appeared in his palm.
"This ring was found by the guarding elder of Jianming Island and your two fellow disciples together! Could it be that the three of them wrongly accused you together?"
After hearing this, Qin Fei quickly said: "Junior Sister Zihan! Don't be deceived by that dog thief. The Na Na Ring was in his hand at that time. You saw it with your own eyes!"
Zihan bit her lip and sighed.
Yes... Even though the murder case has not yet been determined, the evidence that he stole the sect's secrets is conclusive!
Feng Wuchen nodded: "This ring is indeed from me.
Found it! But...he is not my thing!"
As soon as this statement came out, he immediately received criticism from many elders.
"It's not yours? It was found on your body, but you say it's not yours! Do you really think we are all fools?"
"Humph! You're so rude and you're talking nonsense!"
In the face of thousands of accusations, Feng Wuchen remained unhurried.
"I know you don't believe what I said, but that's the truth. That day! I was practicing swordsmanship on Jianming Island as usual, but suddenly I got an order to go to the Wuzong Secret Pavilion to perform a confidential mission! But I just
When I arrived at the Secret Pavilion, I saw the corpses of several senior guards, and what a coincidence, they were killed by the Shocking Wind and Drizzle Sword that I am good at! But it was at that time that the news of the theft of the Secret Pavilion came out.
, I suddenly became the target of public criticism! I realized that I was being framed, so I fought my way out of the siege, but along the way, I didn’t hurt any of my brothers’ lives!”
"After I escaped from Wuzong, I thought I had escaped disaster for the time being, but I discovered an even more terrifying fact: I had an extra ring on my body that contained Wuzong's secrets! At that moment, I knew that I would
I misunderstood the intention of the mastermind behind the scenes! The other party's purpose was not to frame me, but to create chaos and use me to take the Na Ring out of Wuzong! I realized that something was wrong and wanted to turn around and go back to the sect, but
The people from the Spiritual Ghost Sect have already caught up with me... Fortunately, I hid my cultivation, and the mastermind behind the scenes didn't know about it, so those three spiritual cultivators were not my opponents. I killed three of them and saved my life.
I learned the secrets of the sect, but because of this, I was exhausted and was captured by my fellow sect..."
After listening to Feng Wuchen's words, everyone's faces showed disbelief.
Even the elders who had just accused him softened their expressions and fell silent again.
"Qin Fei! Zi Han! When you found him, did you see the three spiritual practitioners of the ghost ghost sect he mentioned?" Xu Jing asked suddenly.<
br>
Zi Han nodded: "Yes... those three spiritual cultivators were all killed with one sword. They did die at the hands of sword cultivators! This point... Senior Brother Lu Ran did not lie."
Qin Fei gritted his teeth and added: "But... Master Rusong and I both speculated at the time that it was because Lu Ran and the people from the Linggui Sect started fighting each other for credit that they killed each other!"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone disagreed.
What Feng Wuchen just said is certainly magical, but it is also logically consistent.
But what was stored in the Najie was the secret of the Wuzong. If people from the Linggui Sect would fight internally over such matters, they would rather believe that what Feng Wuchen said was true.
After Feng Wuchen's pull, things turned around ninety degrees.
If what he said is true, then Lu Ran is not only not a sinner, but also a hero who protected the sect's secrets!
The Great Elder did not express his position immediately, but his face darkened slightly: "You just said that you went to the Secret Pavilion after getting an order. Does that mean that the person who gave you the order is the mastermind behind this matter?
?”
Feng Wuchen shook his head slightly: "I don't know that! I'm just an ordinary disciple. It's up to the elders to decide who is the mastermind behind the scenes."
"Hmph! If this is true! Then we must strictly investigate the sect's islands to see how many spies there are from the Linggui Sect!"
"It actually infiltrated into our interior. The people from Linggui Sect are too brave!"
"Lu Ran! Tell me who gave you the order at that time. If what you say is true, we will definitely restore your reputation!"
"Yes! Who is it? Tell me!"
"..."
