"Back then, shortly after the door owner and I and a group of six other people chased the criminal into the primeval forest, we knew that several of us had fallen into a trap. The other party showed up on purpose and lured us there."
A look of pain appeared on Yuan Hua's face.
"In that primeval forest, there are already two War Lord Xiao Cheng and four powerful men in the late War God realm waiting for us."
"Among the six of us, only the sect leader is at the War Master level, but he is only the beginning of the War Master level, so he is no match at all."
"In less than three minutes, the sect leader and the other four sharp knives were killed by the opponent!"
"Then why did you come out alive?" the judge asked.
"I'm ashamed to say it!" Yuan Hua took a deep breath and continued.
"After the sect owner was convinced that we couldn't escape, he wanted to leave at least one person behind to bring the news out, so when I was off guard, he pushed me off the cliff with a palm."
"He knew there was a pool under the cliff and hoped that I could escape that disaster."
"What happened later was indeed as the sect owner wished. I fell off the cliff and then into the pool. I was lucky enough to save my life."
"The other party's people searched near the waterhole for three days and three nights before finally giving up. I later stayed in the forest for a few more days before I dared to leave."
"You are really lucky!" The judge responded: "Then you should know who ambushed you, right?"
"I don't know!" Yuan Hua shook his head slightly: "Everyone on the other side is dressed in Taoist robes with masks on their heads. You can't see anyone's true face."
Having said this, an angry expression flashed across his face, and he paused briefly before continuing.
"However, although I don't know who specifically took action, I can be sure that it was definitely sent by a powerful family."
"Why are you so sure?" Ling Hao picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
"Two reasons!" Yuan Hua took a deep breath and responded.
"First, the SSS-level wanted criminal was from a wealthy family. Naturally, they would not see anything happen to him. At the same time, they were also worried that after we caught him, we would find out other things about him."
"Secondly, the six of us are blocking the way of the powerful family. If they want to control the Shadow Sect, they must eliminate the six of us first."
"You later chose to remain anonymous just to wait until the day when someone would stand up and seek justice for you?" the judge continued to ask.
"After coming out of the forest, I once thought about going directly to the capital!" Yuan Hua exhaled a breath: "But reason tells me that that is obviously not feasible!"
"The other party didn't find my body at that time. Knowing that I was probably not dead yet, they must have issued a pursuit order for me. If I went to the capital, it would be no different than surrendering myself into a trap."
"My life was saved by the sect master who sacrificed his life. I can't live up to his expectations by showing off my bravery. If I die too, this matter will probably become an unresolved case."
"Then why did we go to the village specifically to find you that day and you refused to admit your identity?" the judge continued to ask.
"The other party's background is too big. Mr. Hei should be worried that we can't settle the matter. He doesn't want to implicate the Yingmen anymore!" Ling Hao looked at Yuan Hua and said lightly: "Is that right?"
"Yes!" Yuan Hua nodded solemnly: "If it weren't for the fact that the other party's people have already found me, I still wouldn't come to Ling Shuai!"
"I'm quite curious, which family member is the criminal that makes you so afraid?" Ling Hao lit a cigarette and took a puff.
"Ling Shuai, haven't you seen his case file?" Yuan Hua was slightly stunned.
"Shortly after that incident, his case file was switched!" the judge responded.
