394 Chapter 394-making bogus accusations
a top-tier soul tool that can cut off the head of a reflection-level Mantis blade bug and break through its body’s defense just by using strength and not mana? ”
The man in the red Mage robe on the high seat held the crystal wine glass in his hand. He frowned and leaned forward with one hand on his knee. He squinted his eagle-like eyes and stared at Meng Yitong. His voice was unusually calm, ” Meng Yitong, do you know what you’re saying? ” Even in the entire undying city, there are only a few of these soul tools. Did you see them with your own eyes?”
Meng Yitong’s face was a bit ashen, but he still gritted his teeth and nodded, ” I saw it with my own eyes. That soul weapon was a rare giant sword, and it was extremely sharp!
“Oh, tell me, how did you see it?”
“When my brother and I were exploring Blackwind Canyon, we met an outer-court disciple of Wan Shen sect called Cui Li. We then accompanied him and entered a mountain cave. We found that huge soul tool, Lao Ai, in the cave first!”
Meng Yitong said with a sad and indignant look, ” I’ve not imagined that Cui Li is such a despicable and insidious villain. He forsook righteousness at the sight of profit. After seeing that huge sword, he found that the huge sword had a great power. In the name of admiring it, he cheated my brother to take it. Therefore, he suddenly launched a strike at my brother and killed my brother Ming Tian with only one strike. Being caught off-guard, I was also severely injured. Thankfully, I managed to escape with my life. That’s why I rushed to the undying city to report to Deacon Ling. I hope Deacon Ling can seek justice for us brothers and clean up the WAN Shen sect’s mess!”
“Oh, didn’t you say that the giant sword can cut off the Mantis blade bug’s head? Did Cui Li kill 3 more Mantis blade insects in front of you after killing your brothers and injuring you?” The man in the red Mage robe sitting on the high seat was not so easy to fool. After hearing Meng Yitong’s words, he revealed a mocking smile and asked again.
If a rookie who had just entered the industry had obtained something good, it was indeed possible to be deceived. However, who were the people who came to support the divine insect world? these Summoners of the six sun realm were all experienced and had seen all kinds of dangers. These guys who were about to become spirits had found a high-quality soul tool, and they were defenseless and lent it to their new friends to ” admire ” it before being deceived?
This event itself was full of doubts, which could only explain how Meng Yitong knew that man called Cui Li and how Cui Li got that top-class soul tool.
“Deacon Ling, there were Mantis blade insects in the mountain cave. My brother Ming Tian chopped off the heads of 3 Mantis blade insects with that huge sword. After being overjoyed, he heard that Cui Li wanted to take a look with his soul weapon. Therefore, he didn’t take any precautions and lent that top-class soul weapon to Cui Li. However, we’ve not imagined that Cui Li has long been determined to kill us and want to take the treasure that we discovered for himself!” Meng Yitong had a glib tongue. He knew that there were loopholes in his words, but it didn’t matter. What was important was what this Deacon Ling in front of him would choose to believe.
As Meng Yitong spoke, he also raised his head to observe Deacon Ling’s expression. After seeing Deacon Ling’s expression, he was relieved. Although Deacon Ling’s expression was calm and mocking when he heard about the Supreme-grade soul tool, his eyes were shining. Meng Yitong was very familiar with that light-it was greed.
“Why did you come to find me?” Butler Ling played with the Crystal Cup in his hand and began to speak in a coy tone. I can’t just listen to your side of the story for this kind of thing!
“Deacon Ling is responsible for maintaining the discipline of undying city. As long as Deacon Ling could avenge my brother Ming Tian and kill Cui Li, I would like to present his top soul tool to Deacon Ling. My brother Ming Tian would also rest in peace!”
Oh, I see. Deacon Ling moved his eyebrows, ” what does Cui Li look like? do you have his portrait? ”
“Yes, please have a look!” Meng Yitong bent over as he moved two steps forward and handed a roll of portrait to Zhang tie, ” that’s his face. I’ve identified him carefully. I don’t think he’s disguised. However, we need to verify whether his name is Cui Li or not. That man is as vicious as a snake or a Scorpion. He might be using an alias!
Deacon Ling unfolded the portrait. It was Cui Li’s gentle look. At least, given his look, he didn’t look like a man who would use unscrupulous means.
Deacon Ling looked at the portrait and then at Meng Yitong. He pursed his lips and said, ” alright, I got it!
Meng Yitong took another step forward, ” Deacon Ling, can you issue a wanted order? I’m willing to offer two million gold coins as a reward for bi an.
“What?” Deacon Ling’s expression immediately turned cold. He gave Meng Yitong an unfriendly look, and his eyes were as cold as a blade. His aura immediately pressed down on Meng Yitong. are you teaching me how to do things? ”
The fine hair on Meng Yitong’s back stood on end, as if a slippery and cold poisonous snake had slid down his collar. Cold sweat immediately poured down his back. Although the six sun realm and the seven sun realm were only one realm apart, the difference in strength between the two was so great that it was difficult to overcome. Facing a seven sun realm expert would make a six sun realm expert feel as powerless and weak as a child facing an adult.
Meng Yitong hurriedly took two steps back and lowered his head. I wouldn’t dare. I’ll leave everything to Deacon Ling!
“You may leave. I know about this matter. I will deal with it according to the situation!” Deacon Ling waved his hand impatiently and had already given the order to leave.
“Then I’ll take my leave!” Meng Yitong stepped back and left the room. Then, under the lead of two summoned servants, he left Deacon Ling’s mansion in the undying city.
Walking out of Deacon Ling’s mansion, Meng Yitong let out a sigh of relief.
Since Deacon Ling didn’t return Cui Li’s portrait, it meant that Deacon Ling had already taken over.
As soon as he returned to undying city, he came to find Deacon Ling in a hurry. Meng Yitong had no choice but to make the first move. If Cui Li returned to undying city first and reported him and Ming Tian, according to the rules of undying city, Meng Yitong and Ming Tian would be sentenced to death for robbing and killing fellow disciples.
Once that happened, even if he didn’t die, he would have to escape from the undying city and be on the run. He would be ready to face the WAN Shen sect’s arrest at any time.
Therefore, Meng Yitong decided to go all out.
Thankfully, the top soul weapon in Cui Li’s hand was enough to kill him.
After Meng Yitong left Deacon Ling’s mansion, he didn’t go far. Instead, he went to a nearby restaurant and ordered some food and wine. After that, he fixed his eyes on Deacon Ling’s mansion. Only after ten minutes, Meng Yitong saw a figure flying out of Deacon Ling’s mansion towards the steward’s Hall in the city like a lightning bolt. Meng Yitong finally let out a long breath.
As long as Cui Li was wanted, he would also have a chance to expose Meng Yitong. By then, Ming Tian would not be able to prove Meng Yitong’s innocence.
“Do you think you’re so great just because you have a top-class soul tool? you’ll soon know how evil people are!” Meng Yitong squinted his eyes and mumbled to himself. He revealed a cold smile.
While Meng Yitong was drinking in the restaurant, Xia Pingan, who had been chasing Meng Yitong all the way here, had almost arrived outside the undying city.
Once the Child of Fortune was far away, he would not be able to lock on to his target. However, the Black Dragon could always sense Meng Yitong’s aura. Xia Pingan had been chasing Meng Yitong all the way here. Xia Pingan, who was in the five sun realm, was not as good as Meng Yitong, who was in the six sun realm. In fact, he was even slightly inferior to Meng Yitong. Therefore, he did not catch up with Meng Yitong on the way.
Seeing that Meng Yitong had gone straight to the undying city without any hesitation after leaving the black wind Canyon, Xia Pingan was more cautious and completed a transformation on the way.
At this moment, Xia Pingan was no longer the gentle Cui Li; instead, he had long changed into a bald tough man with thick eyebrows, big eyes, strong arms and a horse on his fists in a Summoner’s mage’s battle armor. Being over 2 m in height, he was completely different than the previous looks of Xia Pingan and Cui Li.
Xia ping ‘an did not know why he had transformed into this appearance. It was just that when he was transforming, this appearance, which was in great contrast to his previous appearance, naturally appeared in his mind. Then, Xia ping’ an activated the secret transformation technique, changed his appearance, and returned to the undying city.
As soon as Xia Pingan landed at the city gate of the undying city, the Child of Fortune jumped out from his secret mandala. He immediately sensed Meng Yitong’s aura. In a few flashes, the Child of Fortune appeared in the restaurant where Meng Yitong was drinking. He sat on Meng Yitong’s head and locked onto his traces.
Xia ping ‘an grinned and arrogantly walked towards the restaurant where Meng Yitong was.
