During the hunting trial, although competition within the same sect is not prohibited, it is strictly prohibited to cause harm to one's life!
This is an iron rule!
Moreover, the people Gu Jian was suspected of killing were two inner courtyard disciples, and one of the disciples was even the direct disciple of their academy elder.
Ping Qianfan had a headache.
If Meng Fentian and Duan Yun were really killed by Gu Jian, then no matter how talented Gu Jian is and how favored he is by his disciples, they must be punished!
"Master Dean, until the truth is revealed through investigation, I want to personally execute this little bastard!"
Martial Lord Mo Chen was filled with smoke, and three of his disciples died at the hands of Gu Jian one after another. Not only was he heartbroken, but he also felt that all his old face had been lost!
The other martial lords, the disciples of the elder, were all respected by others, but all three of his disciples were killed. How did this make others think of him?
"Elder Mo, we haven't figured out this matter yet." Seeing Mo Chen being so anxious, Gu Jian said coldly and sarcastically.
"Hmph, with seven disciples of the Heavenly Sword Alliance testifying, you can't escape!"
Mo Chen Wujun said confidently.
"We'll see."
Gu Jian was confident.
"Dean, Elder Mo, and seven disciples from the Heavenly Sword Alliance have been brought here."
At this time, Elder Huang walked in, followed by Chen Ping and others.
"I've met the dean, I've met all the elders!"
The disciple of Shuangjian is named Zheng Liang, and he has the highest cultivation level, so he salutes as a representative.
"No gift."
Ping Qianfan nodded and went straight to the topic.
"According to Elder Huang, the seven of you saw with your own eyes that it was Gu Jian who killed Meng Fentian and Duan Yun?"
"That's right, it's Gu Jian!"
Zheng Liang and Chen Ping nodded.
"Master Dean, did you hear that? It was the little bastard who killed me!"
Mo Chen Wujun had an orgasm on the spot, pointed at Gu Jian's nose and cursed.
"Master Dean, please order me to kill Gu Jian now to avenge my beloved disciple!"
"Master, all seven of them are Meng Fentian's people. Can their testimony be trusted?"
Murong Shuran frowned when he heard this and asked next to Ping Qianfan.
"Shu Ran, you have to make your own decisions as a teacher."
Ping Qianfan smiled bitterly in his heart, this disciple was really heartbroken for Gu Jiancao.
Before these witnesses could tell the truth, she became impatient.
Hearing what Master said, Murong Shuran became even more anxious, but at this moment, she saw Gu Jian cast a confident look at her, which should reassure her.
Seeing this, Murong Shuran said no more, so as not to affect the master's mood.
Ping Qianfan looked at Wujun Mo Chen and said, "Elder Mo, don't be anxious. It won't be too late to make a judgment after I figure out the ins and outs of this matter."
It is indeed forbidden to kill fellow sect members in the Hunting Trial, but if it is self-defense, it will be dealt with accordingly.
He wanted to see if Gu Jian was acting in self-defense so as to save the latter's life.
"Tell me what happened. You must tell it in detail."
Ping Qianfan looked at Zheng Liang and others and said.
When several people were about to speak, Elder Huang from the Law Enforcement Hall said again: "Zheng Liang, you speak first, while the other six people wait outside. No conversation is allowed during this period."
Hearing this, Gu Jian's eyes flashed, he wanted to interrogate one by one to prevent collusion in confessions.
Chen Ping and others looked at each other, but without revealing any flaws, they turned around and walked out.
"Zheng Liang, you can start."
Ping Qianfan looked at Zheng Liang and said.
Immediately afterwards, Zheng Liang began to tell.
"Master Dean, elders of the Law Enforcement Hall, before I tell you the story, I want to explain one fact to you. That is, Meng Fentian and Duan Yun were indeed killed by Gu Jian, but Gu Jian had no choice but to do so, or even was forced to do so.
It’s just helpless.”
"What nonsense are you kidding? Who the hell are you from?!"
Hearing this, Lord Mo Chen couldn't hold himself any longer and rushed over.
"stop!"
Ping Qianfan spoke calmly.
In an instant, spiritual power as vast as the ocean enveloped Mo Chen, making him unable to move.
"I'm sorry, Dean, I lost control." Mo Chen could only apologize.
"Zheng Liang, feel free to speak boldly and I will seek justice for you."
Ping Qianfan spoke calmly.
"The thing is like this, when we first entered the Longteng Mountains, Senior Brother Meng colluded with Duan Yun and Duan Feng brothers to use the hunting water to kill Gu Jian.
A few others and I were afraid that things would get serious, so we advised Senior Brother Meng not to harm his fellow disciples, but Senior Brother Meng didn't listen at all, and even sent Duan Feng to carry out the task of killing Gu Jian."
Zheng Liang told.
Hearing this, Ping Qianfan frowned and glanced at Mo Chen meaningfully.
"Then Gu Jian killed Fentian's two junior brothers one after another. Fentian, as the senior brother, avenges them. It is only natural and right, but I don't know the plan of Longteng Mountain Range."
Mo Chen immediately distanced himself from the relationship.
Ping Qianfan seemed to believe it, but looked at Zheng Liang again, gesturing for him to continue.
"Later, when we were hunting deep in the Longteng Mountains, Duan Feng, who was supposed to come back to retaliate to Senior Brother Meng, did not come back. Instead, it was Gu Jian who came up.
Gu Jian wanted to ask Senior Brother Meng for an explanation, but Senior Brother Meng ignored him at all and ordered Duan Yun to kill Gu Jian...
Speaking of which, we are also responsible for Senior Brother Meng's death. If we hadn't really couldn't stand his evil deeds and had to leave the team early, I'm afraid he wouldn't have died in the Longteng Mountains."
Under Zheng Liang's rhetoric, Meng Fentian and Duan Yun were described as extremely vicious, while Gu Jian had no choice but to kill them both in order to protect himself.
There are lies among truths, truth among lies, and combined with the fact that they carefully handled the scene, many elders of the Law Enforcement Hall secretly shook their heads.
If everything is true as Zheng Liang said, then whether it is Meng Fentian, Duan Feng, or Duan Yun, they are indeed dead.
After hearing Zheng Liang's words, the dean's eyes became more and more gloomy.
"Elder Mo, you have really cultivated a good disciple. Even if you plot to kill your fellow disciples, your behavior is still so vicious!"
"Master Dean, this is just his words. There are six others."
Mo Chen Wujun pretended to be calm.
Gu Jian snorted coldly, he had taken care of all seven of them, it was meaningless.
"Then let the other six come in one after another." Ping Qianfan said.
Soon, Chen Ping and six other people were called into the Tianxing Hall one after another.
And the testimonies of the six of them all pointed the finger at Meng Fentian and Duan Yun, believing that they were the ones doing it themselves and Gu Jian was just forced to do so.
"Elder Mo, do you have nothing to say now?" Ping Qianfan looked directly at Mo Chen.
"this……"
Mo Chen was speechless.
The rhetoric of these seven Heavenly Sword Alliance completely eliminated Gu Jian's guilt!
"Elder Huang, is the investigation at the scene consistent with their testimony?"
Ping Qianfan asked Xiang Law Enforcement Hall again, "If it matches, then this case can basically conclude that Gu Jian is not guilty."
The law enforcement hall looked at each other, Elder Huang stood up and raised his hands and said:
"Dean, the traces at the scene are basically consistent with the statements of the seven witnesses."
"Then I declare that Gu Jian's killing of his fellow disciples was a legitimate act of self-defense and there was no..."
"but……"
Ping Qianfan was about to declare Gu Jian innocent, but Elder Huang seemed to have something else to say.
"but what?"
Ping Qianfan stopped and asked.
"However, the testimonies of the seven witnesses are exactly the same. It is hard for me to believe that there is nothing strange in them."
Elder Huang is as old as a man and he hits the nail on the head.
