"Everything I said is true. Elder Qin He and I have seen everything! There is absolutely no lie!"
Cao Zheng saw that Jian Xuan didn't believe him, so he quickly added.
This time, he also brought Qin He with him.
Cao Zheng has also lived for half his life and is very smooth in his dealings.
Although he clearly knew that Qin He was using him as a spearman.
But how could he be willing to be used as a gun?
Pulling Qin He in at this time would undoubtedly give him a greater chance of escaping the blame.
Qin He's eyes sank when he heard Cao Zheng mentioning him.
Then he took a few steps forward and walked in front of Jian Xuan, "Sect Master, what happened is indeed what Elder Cao Zheng said. It was Ling Tian who killed the two core disciples first. After that, Elder Cao Zheng ordered people to capture them.
Unexpectedly, Ling Tian's reaction was very violent. Not only did he refuse to surrender, he ruthlessly killed all five of his core disciples who were trying to capture him!"
"snort!"
Jian Xuan snorted coldly upon hearing this.
He was fully aware of the grudges between Qin He and Ling Tian.
So at this moment, he didn't believe Qin He's words even more than Cao Zheng's.
"Elder Cao Zheng just wanted to capture Ling Tian Jian Zi, he clearly wanted to kill Ling Tian Jian Zi on the spot!"
At this time, Gu An, who had been sitting cross-legged on the ground, stood up.
Although Gu An didn't understand what was going on.
But he was also involved in this matter.
He didn't know what happened before, but he knew what happened next.
Cao Zheng did not want to capture Ling Tian at all.
It was to kill Ling Tian.
Because of Gu An's words, Jian Xuan and others also noticed the injuries on Gu An's body, and they all couldn't help but become curious.
Gu An's strength is second only to Mu Feng among the many core disciples of the Sword God Sect.
Now, Mu Feng has entered the True Yuan Realm and is out of the core disciples.
Gu An can even be said to be the number one core disciple.
How could he be seriously injured easily?
"Gu An, who hurt you?"
Jian Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly and asked Gu An.
"The injuries on my body and those on Mu Yingxue are all due to Elder Cao Zheng!"
When he mentioned his injuries, Gu An also felt a little angry.
After all, Cao Zheng was also the elder of the Sword God Sect's Punishment Hall, but he actually dealt such a heavy blow to one of his core disciples.
unacceptable!
"Cao Zheng!"
Upon learning that both Mu Yingxue and Gu An were injured by Cao Zheng, Jianxuan immediately scolded them coldly.
Then he looked at Cao Zheng angrily.
"Sect Master, it was because I ordered people to capture Ling Tian, and Ling Tian resisted vigorously. Gu An and Mu Yingxue were indiscriminate and favored Ling Tian, so I had to take action. Although the attack was indeed a bit harsh,
But the situation was complicated at the time..."
Feeling Jian Xuan's angry gaze, Cao Zheng suddenly panicked and explained quickly.
"The situation was complicated at that time? What kind of complicated method was it? You found that these core disciples couldn't kill Ling Tian, so you were forced to do it yourself, right?"
Jian Xuan had a cold face, showing a sense of calmness and self-power, and spoke to Cao Zheng in a cold voice again.
"Sect Master, I was wronged! I didn't do anything to Ling Tian."
Cao Zheng looked aggrieved.
"It's true that he didn't take action against Ling Tian, he just asked Sun Hao to do it for him."
Mu Feng said with a slight smile on his lips.
After finishing speaking, he looked at Jian Xuan again, and then said slowly, "Sect Master, if I hadn't arrived in time, Sun Hao would have succeeded, and my junior brother would have died under Sun Hao's sword."
Jian Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly, and immediately looked at Sun Hao after hearing the voice, "Sun Hao, what do you have to say?"
"Disciple has nothing to say!"
Sun Hao held his injured right arm with his left hand and spoke calmly.
"So, you really wanted to kill Ling Tian just now? Why?"
Jian Xuan asked coldly.
"Accept someone's order!"
Sun Hao said calmly, as if he was looking forward to death, "Since I failed to kill Ling Tian, I have no shame in living in this world! The Sword God Sect may not be able to tolerate me."
After saying this, he took out another long sword.
Then he held the sword in his left hand and touched his neck, killing himself on the spot in front of everyone.
Seeing this, Mu Feng shook his head helplessly.
When Cao Zheng saw Sun Hao committing suicide, he suddenly felt as sad as a rabbit dying as a fox.
After that, he immediately said to Jian Xuan, "Sect Master, I did just ask Sun Hao and others to capture Ling Tian, but I didn't expect that Sun Hao and others actually wanted to kill Ling Tian. I am really unjust in this matter."
"Sun Hao is one of the ten core disciples of our Sword God Sect. As a disciple of your punishment hall, you can't order him!"
Jian Xuan glanced at Cao Zheng indifferently.
Even though Sun Hao didn't say much just now.
But he can still make a rough guess.
Sun Hao could not have been ordered by Cao Zheng.
However, this does not mean that Cao Zheng has no evil intentions!
"Cao Zheng, let me ask you! Was it really Ling Tian who attacked the other core disciples first?"
Jian Xuan stared at the verification with cold eyes, "Answer carefully, this is your last chance to survive!"
Feel Jianxuan's gaze.
Cao Zheng immediately panicked.
The look in Jian Xuan's eyes is that of a sword god who wants to kill people!
"No, it's not!"
Cao Zheng said with a look of horror.
At this moment, his psychological defense was undoubtedly completely defeated.
"So, you framed Ling Tian?"
Jian Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly and he sneered.
"Sect Master, Elder Qin He ordered me to do all this..."
Cao Zheng said hurriedly.
Framing Jianzi!
Deliberately kill Jianzi!
This is a capital crime!
Even if he is an elder of the Sword God Sect, once it is found out that this matter is true.
He will inevitably die!
So at this time, he could only hold everything back and surrender Qin He.
Only in this way can he have a chance of survival.
"Cao Zheng, what are you talking about?"
When Qin He heard what Cao Zheng said, his eyes immediately opened and he angrily scolded Cao Zheng.
"Elder Qin He indeed asked me to do this. He knew early on that Sun Hao and others were from Prince Mu's Mansion, and asked me to contact Sun Hao and others in advance. He has been looking for opportunities to kill Ling Tian."
Cao Zheng knelt down in front of Jian Xuan and kept talking as if he was holding the last straw.
After saying that, he quickly took out the list that Cao Zheng had given him before and handed it to Jian Xuan, "Sect Master, you should recognize the handwriting of Elder Qin He..."
When Qin He saw Cao Zheng taking out the list, his expression immediately darkened.
He didn't expect that Cao Zheng actually retained such a skill.
It was his overestimation of Cao Zheng's loyalty.
Jianxuan took the list and looked at it.
When he confirmed that the seven core disciples who had just been killed by Ling Tian and Sun Hao were all on this list, he almost believed Cao Zheng's words.
Moreover, he also recognized the handwriting on it.
It was indeed the hand of Qin He.
After putting down the list in his hand, Jianxuan glanced at Qin He and said coldly, "Elder Qin He, do you have anything else to explain?"
Qin He clenched his fists with a gloomy face and did not answer.
At this moment, for that matter.
The evidence is conclusive, no matter how much he says, it’s just sophistry!
Ling Tian dragged his seriously injured body, and at this moment, there was a hint of joking in the corner of his mouth.
Before, he was thinking about how Gai would deal with Qin He.
Unexpectedly, because of today's incident, Cao Zheng's sudden defection could pull Qin He off his horse.
This was completely outside of his plan.
"How about I explain it to you?"
Just when everyone thought Jian Xuan was going to punish Qin He, a rolling voice suddenly resounded in the void.
The air of the void continued to stir, and a figure slowly condensed above everyone's heads.
Everyone raised their heads.
As the figure in the void gradually became clearer, the expressions of Jian Xuan and others became solemn.
