Chapter 257 - Jia Lan Jade Coffin (1)"Hehehehe, little friend Li Mu, those words you just said were said to push this old one and Young Master Yin into the limelight. I did know that you fought with Young Master Yin on the street yesterday, and I also know that you shattered the bones in Young Master Yin"s shoulders, but I"m afraid that"s not the case as far as I know."
Faced with the many doubtful gazes in the hall, the white-haired old man"s face did not change at all, and he spoke indifferently."Exactly! Obviously, you saw how pretty Xin Yu was and wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h her as a concubine, but when I just happened to pa.s.s by, I couldn"t stand watching anymore, so I advised you, and it was you who relied on Elder Chi Yun"s support and the sect master"s favor, and even disregarded my ident.i.ty and beat me half to death, if not for a disciple begging for mercy from one of the bystanders, I would probably have turned into a violent corpse on the streets! "
Nangong Yin said in an extremely aggrieved tone, twisting the facts."Pah!" f.u.c.k you! Be careful with your words, how could my brother be such a person? "
Xiao Kuan who was seated on the lower right side of the hall suddenly slammed the table and shouted as he glared at Nangong Yin.
"Exactly! I, Hu Qiang, am extremely clear of Brother Li"s character! You actually dare to speak nonsense and ruin his reputation, even if you are the biological grandson of Elder Nan Gong, no one will be able to protect you! "
"That"s right, I, Shen Cai Qing, am the first to not believe it. Someone who, in order to help his comrade escape, has stayed behind to defend against a strong enemy, I believe he is definitely not a villain like what you said!"
"Well said! I can tell from your name that you are not a good person! Nangong Yin, if you don"t do it, who will! I, Qiu Dongyu dare to vouch with my life, my brother is definitely not that kind of person! ""That"s right, I believe in Li Mu too!"
Zheng Kun and the others all stood up and stood by Li Mu"s side. This caused a warm feeling to rise in Li Mu"s heart, who was initially feeling lonely within this place, to think that his companions who had experienced life and death together were even willing to vouch for him with their lives.
"So what if you believe him? I have witnesses to testify here. Men, call Chen Qun and the others who sent me back yesterday!"
Nangong Yin seemed to have long been prepared, he rushed out of the hall and greeted the guards of the City Lord"s Mansion who quickly left after hearing his orders. In a moment, they brought over five outer court disciples dressed in yellow clothes, Li Mu had some impression of them, and it was he who asked them to send Nangong Yin back to the City Lord"s Mansion yesterday.
"Greetings to Sect Master and City Lord!"
When the few outer sect disciples of Gold Jade Sect entered the palace, the first thing they did was to greet Li Chengfeng and Nangong Li.
"No need to be so polite! Let me ask you two, were you both present when Li Mu and Nangong Yin were fighting in the city square yesterday? Li Chengfeng asked with a serious tone.
"Reporting to Sect Leader, the few of us were responsible for maintaining security at the entrance of the city square. At that time, we were all present!" The few outer court disciples replied in unison."Alright then!" Since you are all here, let me ask you, what exactly happened yesterday? Tell me the truth! I shall say the first half of the ugly words, if there is even the slightest bit of falsehood, then all of you will fall with your heads on the ground! "
Li Chengfeng revealed the dignity of a sect master, and spoke with a firm and unyielding tone, at the same time releasing a strand of pressure with spiritual consciousness, causing the few outer sect disciples to tremble all over."What happened... "This …"
The few outer sect disciples looked at each other, and at the same time looked at Li Mu who was standing straight beside them from the corner of their eyes, as if they were afraid to say it out loud.
"Speak!" Don"t stutter, just tell me the truth. Could it be that there is someone threatening you?! "Chen Qun, you tell us!" Nangong Li pointed at one of the outer sect disciples and shouted loudly.
"Speak. I said... What happened was this. Senior Brother Li Mu probably had something to do in the marketplace yesterday, and then Junior Sister Xinyu sent him out. But … However, when Junior Sister Xinyu Er sent Senior Brother Li to the city square"s exit, he actually disregarded the friendship of being in the same sect and attacked her from head to toe. The scene was extremely unsightly … "
After arguing for a while, they started fighting. Senior brother Li"s cultivation is extraordinary, senior brother Nan Gong is no match for him, and he was almost beaten to death, but I came up to persuade him a little, so senior brother Li allowed us to send senior brother Nan Gong back!
The outer sect disciple who was called Chen Qun by Nangong Li started to explain what had happened yesterday. After he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the hall immediately became tense.
"Nonsense! You must have colluded with that b.a.s.t.a.r.d Nangong Yin to frame my brother! "
Xiao Kuan and the rest walked to Li Mu"s side and shouted angrily at the frightened Chen Qun."Colluded? Fine! Whatever you want to say, since the truth is right in front of you, you can believe it if you want to, but since it has already happened, and I have already suffered, I do not care! "
Nangong Yin laughed coldly in disdain, completely not putting Xiao Kuan and the others in his eyes. However, when he saw the expression on Li Mu"s face, his heart thumped once, because he actually didn"t see any hint of panic or panic on Li Mu"s face at all. At this moment, Li Mu even had a cold smile on his face, as if victory was in his grasp.
"Master, what do you think we should do? Although Ying"er has been spoiled by me everyday, she shouldn"t have done something as ridiculous as robbing a female disciple on the streets. "Nangong Li said to the silent Li Chengfeng with a smile.
"Elder Nan Gong! I see that you have the same seniority as my Master, so I respectfully call you Elder! But what you said was too biased, Nangong Yin would not do such a ridiculous thing, then what you mean is that I, Li Mu did it! "
Li Mu said, looking at Nangong Li with a gloomy expression."Li Mu! My grandfather is an elder of the Gold Jade Sect. If you dare to speak to him in such a tone, do you have any respect for him? "
Nangong Yin stood up in anger, and stared straight at Li Mu.
"Li Mu! "It must be me favoring Ying"er. The problem is that the evidence is conclusive now, can it be that I will be the one favoring you instead?"
Nangong Li"s face also darkened, as an expert of Tongxuan realm, if not for giving Li Chengfeng face, he would have erupted already.
"What solid evidence, then where did this injury on my body come from? Our Elder Nan Gong would definitely not say that I, Li Mu, was so full that I became like this just to frame Nangong Yin, right? "
Li Mu changed the subject and said with a sneer.
"Who knows what kind of people you offended. You were injured like this when someone came to your house to take revenge. Haven"t you killed many people recently? Plus, with the reward from the ten countries" Merchant Union, it"s a bit strange that you"re not being hunted down!" Nangong Yin curled his lips and said coldly."Alright!" If you say it like that, then I don"t have any objections. Since you said that they are here for revenge on me, or perhaps they are here for the Bounty Order … What I don"t understand is that the person they are looking for is me, and what does it have to do with Xinyu"er, why did they kidnap her? " Li Mu asked.
"Who knows? Anyway, you were the one who took Xin Yu away. What does it have to do with me if she was kidnapped by someone? She"s not in my City Lord"s Mansion right now, so how could you dare to blame me?" "You said that it was Old Ju who attacked you yesterday. Did you see his face clearly?" Nangong Yin defended himself confidently.
"That person was wearing a ghost mask on his face, so I didn"t see his face. However, if I find Xin Yu"er in your City Lord"s Mansion, how should I deal with this?" Li Mu changed the topic and pointed the arrow at Xin Yu.
"If you find it, I"ll admit defeat and let you deal with me as you wish!" But if you can"t find it, then what? " Nangong Yin asked back confidently."If I can"t find it, I"ll let you handle it! May I know what do you think of our suggestion to Sect Master and Elder Nan Gong? "
Li Mu said as he turned to look at Li Chengfeng and Nangong Li.Nangong Li and Li Chengfeng looked at each other, then nodded their heads at the same time to indicate their agreement.
Seeing that Li Chengfeng and Yue Yang had agreed, a pleased smile surfaced in Li Mu"s heart, and he said: "If that"s the case, then I"ll have to trouble Sect Master and Elder Nan Gong to follow this disciple to the City Lord"s Mansion, how about it?"
"Since this matter has blown up so much, we no longer have any interest in eating. We might as well accompany you. So what? Let"s go together and be witnesses!"
Li Chengfeng was obviously heading towards Li Mu, without waiting for Nangong Li to say anything, he took the lead to walk out of the hall, upon seeing this, Li Mu and the rest immediately followed."Grandfather!" What do we do, that brat Li Mu seems to be full of confidence, seems like he knows that Xin Yu is in my City Lord"s Mansion! "
When Li Chengfeng and the others were the first to leave, Nangong Yin and Nangong Li who were at the back, gently said to Nangong Li through sound transmission.
"Don"t worry, I have yet to learn the other abilities of the Jia Lan Jade Coffin, but when it comes to isolating auras, even Li Chengfeng can"t use his spirit sense to sense the existence of the Jia Lan Jade Coffin, let alone the Heart Jade that was hidden inside, it"s all because of you, you son of a b * stard! So many things have happened, if not, how could things have gotten to this point! "
"Sigh, this is also my fault. I can only blame myself for having Juho bring that girl, Xinyu, back yesterday. If I knew earlier, I wouldn"t have listened to you, and I should have killed her and destroyed her corpse!" Nangong Li secretly said to himself.
"Don"t, don"t, don"t, don"t we have Jia Lan Jade Coffin s? We have enough to hide her heart, and it"s not like we have to kill her. Grandpa, if you kill her, I won"t find a dao companion for the rest of my life!" Nangong Yin threatened.
"Since you have taken a liking to that girl, I am not opposed to it. You should say that, that girl is indeed different from the others, I need to look into her when I have the chance, but unfortunately, I have met with the matter today, I hope that she can take care of it well, although we rule over the Gold Jade City, we cannot clash with our sect. That old b.a.s.t.a.r.d Li Chengfeng, he is really protecting that brat Li Mu well, tighter than even his own son!"
Nangong Li secretly cursed a few times, and then walked out of the hall with Nangong Yin, arriving at a place above the Jade Square outside the hall."Heh heh, Nangong Yin, do you think that just by isolating Yu"er"s presence, no one would know? I"ll go and find her now! "
Standing on top of the Jade Square, Li Mu suddenly sneered at Nangong Yin who had rushed over last, and then, under the huge change in expression on Nangong Yin"s face, led Shen Cai Qing and the rest towards a certain direction in the City Lord"s mansion, from the looks of it, it was as though they already knew the route, and did not even need to look for it, and directly headed towards their destination.
