The second tomb guard's eyes flickered. How could he not see that the sword was newly refined and was definitely not an ancient relic from the secret realm?
However, Xia Qingchen refused to reveal it, which he could understand.
Such an expert is unknown. It is obvious that he deliberately hides himself from the world and does not want outsiders to know his existence.
"Haha." The second tombkeeper smiled, then looked at Chen Guang, who was covered in blood, and then at Dan Qi who was hiding behind him, and his smile gradually faded away.
"What's going on?" the second tombkeeper asked majestically.
Shan Qi was the first to say: "Master, it was this unreasonable man named Xia Qingchen who injured us and seriously injured Master Chen Guang!"
It turns out that he is a disciple personally trained by the second tombkeeper!!
People on the mainland side suddenly felt their hearts sinking and had a bad premonition.
"Dare to do things you dare not do!" King Zhongyun said coldly and arrogantly: "Second gravekeeper, I must be honest, you have no way of teaching me!"
Shan Qi angrily yelled: "You bastard, why are you talking to my master..."
However, the two tombkeepers waved their hands, stopped standing alone, looked at King Zhongyun and said: "Why is there no way?"
King Zhongyun clasped his hands and said: "First, I can't afford to lose. I attacked and killed people after the competition! Second, I can't afford it. I dare to attack and kill people but dare not take the responsibility! Third, I can't believe it. I made mistakes first but the evil ones came first."
Complain!"
"Looking at the words and deeds of this disciple of yours, it must be that the master's teachings are incompetent, leading to loss of morality and trust!"
The three words "cannot afford" describe Danqi's despicableness incisively and vividly!
After hearing this, the two gravekeepers fell into a long silence.
There was a silent power in that silence, which made people feel even more oppressive. The noise in the scene quickly became quiet like cicadas in winter.
King Zhongyun closed his mouth and said nothing.
They stared at the two tombkeepers, waiting for their decision.
After a long time, the second tomb guard slowly spoke: "I agree with the sneak attack, but is there any conclusive evidence for the murder?"
He glanced at Xia Qingchen and could vaguely see the hidden wounds on his vest.
But that's not fatal enough, and it doesn't count as murder.
"He just fired the hidden weapon." Zhang Xiaofeng said: "It was still a poison-quenching hidden weapon."
"Where's the hidden weapon?"
Yu Gugong immediately walked out of the crowd, held a black crossbow arrow, and handed it to the two tomb guards.
However, Dan Qi had a calm look on his face and didn't care at all.
"It's just an ordinary concealed weapon." The second tomb guard put down the concealed weapon and said, "There is no way to talk about murder."
He was clearly trying to excuse his disciple and only charged him with sneak attack.
After all, he is his disciple, and he is also the second most talented person among the young generation of Linlang Island. If word spreads that he would attack and kill people secretly, the negative impact would be too great.
Zhang Xiaofeng said: "Impossible, I clearly saw the quenching poison on the hidden weapon."
However, the concealed weapon was extremely clean, with no sign of quenching.
Shan raised his nostrils and hummed: "You can eat whatever you want, but you can't talk nonsense! Which of your eyes is blind? Did you see that the crossbow arrows were quenched with poison?"
Zhang Xiaofeng couldn't argue. She didn't understand why the poison above disappeared.
King Zhongyun also frowned and stepped forward to see for himself: "I have indeed seen the poison being quenched above."
"Is it available now?" the second tombkeeper asked.
King Zhongyun had nothing to say.
People in the rest of the continent could only stare.
"I teach my son poorly, so I can't afford to lose alone, so I get angry and hurt others." The second gravekeeper said: "Order him to apologize to Xia Qingchen."
Just an apology?
Isn't it too biased for Shan Qi to be the second tomb guard?
You must know that Xia Qingchen is able to stand here not because Shan Qi showed mercy, but because of Xia Qingchen's extraordinary strength.
If it had been anyone else, he would have died on the spot.
The seemingly impartial second tombkeeper, in the final analysis, still cannot treat both internal and external people equally.
"Why don't you apologize?" The two tombkeepers had no intention of punishing him, they just ordered him to apologize.
King Zhongyun and others saw this, and although they were not angry, they were helpless.
Because there is indeed no evidence that Shan Qi wanted to kill someone.
Patriarch Ye reluctantly retreated into the crowd, unable to force anything further.
He raised his hands and hung them by his side. He took three steps forward and said to Xia Qingchen, "I'm sorry."
His apology made people feel extremely angry.
Because when Shan Qi apologized, his neck was held high, his eyes drooped, and he looked down at Xia Qingchen with his peripheral vision.
His tone was stiff, his tone was cold, and his eyes were full of ridicule.
It seems to be saying, what can you do to me?
What kind of apology is that? It’s clearly a sign of confidence!
Xia Qingchen glanced at the two tomb-keepers, and finally understood that the root of the problem lay with the two tomb-keepers.
No wonder Shan Qi dared to act so recklessly. With such a biased master as his backer, he didn't have to worry about being punished for doing something wrong. Shan Qi naturally acted without any scruples.
People really can't look at the surface.
At first glance, the two gravekeepers seem to be outsiders who have insight into human affairs, but in fact they also have their own selfish motives.
"I don't accept it." The Dayan Sword in Xia Qingchen's hand showed no intention of sheathing it.
The second tombkeeper smiled indifferently and advised: "If you have to be merciful, please forgive me. My disciple has apologized, what else do you want?"
Xia Qingchen's face was expressionless: "Does he have face? I have to accept the apology. I'm sorry, but the person who kills me will not be lenient."
With a clasp of his palm, he secretly caught the Soul-eating Divine Insect.
After a long period of cultivation, the Soul-eating Divine Insect has grown up a lot. Once a spiritual attack is launched, Da Yue will be unharmed.
No matter what happens today, he will make Danqi pay the price!
The smile on the face of the second tomb guard faded away, and he showed his dignity: "He said he wanted to kill you, do you have any evidence?"
He raised the dark but clean crossbow arrow in his hand: "Just a harmless crossbow arrow?"
In the absence of evidence, Xia Qingchen insisted on taking action, and the tombkeeper had plenty of excuses to punish Xia Qingchen.
"Who said it's harmless?" came a slightly playful voice.
Everyone looked back when they heard the sound, only to see a young woman in purple clothes, with a gauze scarf on her face and purple eyes walking towards her with little hands on her back.
Behind her, Ye Linglong followed suit.
Moon Pearl!
Xia Qingchen quickly winked at him and told him not to come over.
Today, he deliberately did not bring Yue Mingzhu to the human emperor's tomb, because he was worried that if the tombkeepers were present, they would discover Yue Mingzhu's identity.
But she actually ran over by herself.
"Why do you say that?" the two tombkeepers said calmly.
Yue Mingzhu ignored Xia Qingchen's eyes, playfully stuck out her pink tongue, and jumped up to the second tomb guard.
She was not afraid of the two tomb guards. She took the crossbow arrow from his palm, weighed it twice in her hand, and said eloquently: "As far as I know, Dark Moon has a strange poison."
"Its name is Yan Po Tears. When it sees blood, it seals its throat. Once it enters the body, there is basically no way to save it." Yue Mingzhu placed the crossbow arrow under the moonlight and said: "The most special thing about it is that this poison can only be illuminated by moonlight.
Talent is manifest.”
really!
Under the constant illumination of the moonlight, a layer of hazy ink-colored airflow gradually formed on the crossbow arrow, and condensed into a liquid.
That was clearly the poisonous thing that Zhang Xiaofeng, Yu Gugong and others had seen.
"Nonsense! I am a disciple of the tomb keeper and a contemporary figure on Linlang Island. How could I have the poison of Dark Moon?" A pale color flashed across Shan Qi's face as he argued fiercely.
Yue Mingzhu chuckled, a creepy smile: "Since you say no, why not give it a try."
