Sheng Xiao widened his eyes in shock. “The Grand State Master admitted it?” Sheng Xiao found it ridiculous. “How could he be the murderer?!”
Sheng Xiao couldn’t believe it.
Yu Huang was distressed, but she said, “Back then, when he was training on the Divination Continent, he was pursued because of some matters. In the end, he was injured and jumped into the Dragon Abyss Lock. When he finally climbed out of the abyss after countless hardships, his strength had regressed to the Master Realm, and his body was very weak. He wanted to live and return to his peak strength, so he made the wrong decision…”
As she spoke, tears rolled down Yu Huang’s face.
She wiped her tears and glanced at the ‘No Smoking’ reminder card nailed to the wall of the elevator. She caught a glimpse of a pinhole camera in the corner of the reminder card.
Yu Huang pretended not to notice the existence of that thing. She lowered her eyes and said, “Senior Dongfang Sile heard that he was hunted down in the Divination Continent. Worried about G.o.dfather’s safety, Dongfang Sile silently returned to the Holy Spirit Continent alone. G.o.dfather sensed Senior Dongfang’s spiritual energy fluctuations, so he used Senior Dongfang’s friendship with him to lure him to the cave in the Fire Spring Mountain Range… Then, when Senior Dongfang wasn’t paying attention, he killed him and s.n.a.t.c.hed his spiritual energy.”
“Then, he used Senior Bai Zhenzhen’s love for him to tlure her to the Blue Lake Glacier. He froze Senior Bai Zhenzhen and sealed her in the towering ice pillar to s.n.a.t.c.h her spiritual power…”
Yu Huang’s words were like a bolt from the blue to Sheng Xiao.
Was this the truth?
After the staff in the surveillance room of the Alliance Building overheard Yu Huang’s words, they were all shocked.
“Quick! Inform the President and let him see this video!”
Ding!
The elevator arrived at the first floor.
The elevator door opened. Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao looked up and were about to walk out when they saw many people standing outside.
Sheng Lingfeng, Lu Yubei, and the elite guards of the Alliance were all here…
It was obvious that they were going to arrest someone.
Sheng Xiao frowned and asked Sheng Lingfeng, “Father, what are you doing?”
Sheng Lingfeng looked at Yu Huang inquisitively and said, “Ah Huang, there’s something we need to talk to you about.”
Yu Huang clenched her fists and pretended to be vexed and uneasy. “…What is it?”
“It’s about the Grand State Master and the deaths of the two Prime Masters.”
Yu Huang’s face instantly turned pale.
…
Yu Huang was brought to a secret conversation room by Sheng Lingfeng and the others.
The conversation room looked no different from an upscale living room, but Sheng Lingfeng and the experts standing behind him gave Yu Huang a sense of pressure.
Yu Huang stared blankly at the cup of coffee on the table. Her curly eyelashes fluttered slightly, revealing some uneasiness.
Lu Yubei placed a laptop in front of Sheng Lingfeng. Sheng Lingfeng held the mouse and opened an audio file. Then, what Yu Huang had said to Sheng Xiao in the elevator sounded in the living room.
Upon hearing these familiar words, Yu Huang instantly turned pale. She looked up and questioned Sheng Lingfeng, “You… you installed surveillance cameras in the elevator?”
Sheng Lingfeng didn’t explain this and only said solemnly, “Did Prime Master Mo Xiao tell you this himself?”
Yu Huang pursed her rosy lips and pretended to be unwilling to cooperate.
Sheng Lingfeng extended his right hand towards Lu Yubei.
Lu Yubei handed a medical report to Sheng Lingfeng.
Sheng Lingfeng flipped open the report and placed it in front of Yu Huang. He said, “We did an autopsy report for Senior Bai Zhenzhen. From her lips and respiratory tract, we found the remnants of Jinghong Luo. In addition, we also saw the figure of Prime Master Mo Xiao in Senior Bai Zhenzhen’s eyes.”
“Yu Huang, these clues coincide with what you just said. Let me ask you, did Prime Master Mo Xiao tell you about his evil deeds?”
With these evidence, Yu Huang resigned herself to fate and closed her eyes.
She stared at the autopsy report and asked in a low voice, “What punishment will he receive?”
Sheng Lingfeng closed his eyes and sighed. “According to the rules of the Beast Tamer Alliance, if you use despicable methods to harm a Prime Master, not only will you be sentenced to having your Beast Heart destroyed, but you will also be beheaded in public. The Dongfang Clan and the Snake Clan won’t let this go either. Prime Master Mo Xiao’s punishment might be even more serious.”
Yu Huang remained silent for a long time.
Sheng Lingfeng turned around and said to Lu Yubei, “Inform the vice presidents and the members of the alliance to rush to Jingdu as soon as possible and prepare to hold a discussion meeting.” The investigation of Mo Xiao’s matter had been finished. However, Mo Xiao was a Prime Master and the Grand State Master of the Divine Moon Empire after all. The subsequent arrangements still needed to be discussed carefully.
Lu Yubei received the order and left the office with the others.
After they left, only Yu Huang and Sheng Lingfeng were left in the office.
Just as Yu Huang thought that the interrogation was over, she heard Sheng Lingfeng say, “You knew that there are surveillance cameras in the elevator, right?”
Yu Huang blinked and didn’t answer.
Sheng Lingfeng narrowed his eyes and looked at Yu Huang. He said thoughtfully, “Ah Huang, others don’t know you, but I do. Why did you deliberately reveal this news to us?”
Yu Huang was shocked, but she remained silent.
Sheng Lingfeng leaned forward and looked into Yu Huang’s red eyes at a close distance. He asked sharply, “Is he really the murderer?”
Yu Huang’s heart skipped a beat, but her expression didn’t change at all. She only said, “The figure that Senior Bai Zhenzhen saw before she died was indeed the Grand State Master.” With that said, Yu Huang stood up and strode out of the conference room.
When she walked out of the Alliance Building, Yu Huang sensed that the security around the building had become much tighter. There seemed to be an invisible energy shield in the sky outside the building.
They were probably worried that Mo Xiao would escape.
Escape?
Yu Huang raised her head and looked at the top floor of the building. A sad smile appeared on her lips.
He had already taken the initiative to turn himself in, so why would he run?
