Everyone in the Xian Sheng Clan gathered in the open space in the middle of the Dark Palace.
At this time, everyone already knew what had happened, and everyone's face was full of anger and murderous intent.
A baby with the potential to open the seven spiritual apertures was actually killed in the dark palace, and his mother was also killed. This is definitely the worst incident that has happened to the Xiansheng clan in so many years.
Even Su Qing and Xu Wenwen were brought to the open space.
Lin Zhiming walked to Su Qing's side.
"Who is so cruel that he doesn't even spare such a small child?" Xu Wenwen asked in horror after hearing that the baby was killed.
"Zhiming, leave here before my father comes." Su Qing whispered to Lin Zhiming.
Lin Zhiming looked at Su Qing in surprise.
He had actually guessed what happened, but what he didn't expect was that Su Qing seemed to have guessed something too.
How is this possible? The reason why he can guess is because he has more information, and Su Qing didn't even attend the dinner tonight. She has very little information, so how could she guess anything.
"Mom, why did you let Zhiming go?" Xu Wenwen asked doubtfully.
"Don't ask why, I don't have time to explain. I know you should leave as soon as possible." Su Qing said.
"If I leave, won't it be confirmed that I killed the child? This time I am here not only to represent myself, but also to represent the Dragon Clan. I cannot bear such a scapegoat." Lin Zhiming shook his head.
"If you don't leave, your life will be lost." Su Qing said anxiously.
"I left, my life is still there, but I will have to bear the infamy forever. I won't leave." Lin Zhiming said firmly, shaking his head.
"Mom, what are you talking about? Why did Zhi Ming kill the child? He couldn't have done this." Xu Wenwen said doubtfully.
"If you believe that he will not do this, others may not necessarily believe him. Now that a future clan leader has died in the clan, Zhi Ming, as an outsider, is undoubtedly the most suspicious. In addition, he had a relationship with his second uncle before.
It's a contradiction, everyone will think that Zhi Ming killed the child! If Zhi Ming doesn't leave now, he won't have a chance to leave later," Su Qing said.
"How can everyone just do whatever they think they want? They have to provide evidence, right? Without evidence, even the law cannot act arbitrarily," Xu Wenwen said.
"This is the Xiansheng Clan. Here, the words of the patriarch are law. Zhiming, if you don't leave, it will really be too late!" Su Qing stared at Lin Zhiming and said.
"I won't leave." Lin Zhiming shook his head.
At this moment, in the distance, Su Guoshi hurried over with Su Wushuang and others.
"It's too late." Su Qing sighed.
Everyone looked at Su Guoshi excitedly.
Su Guoshi stood on the steps in front of everyone and said with a murderous look on his face, "Dear tribesmen, just now, a shocking tragedy occurred in our tribe. Our deputy chief, my brother Su Wushuang's great-great-grandson and granddaughter-in-law were murdered.
Killed at home! This is definitely a fatal blow to our Xian Sheng clan! Now I have closed all the entrances and exits in the clan. Everyone in the clan is here, and the murderer is obviously among them. I will kill
Take a chance, stand up on your own, and do things for everyone. I will not implicate your friends and relatives because of you. But if you don’t cherish this opportunity and don’t take the initiative to stand up, then... I, Su Guoshi, swear here that I
I will definitely cut you into pieces, and not only you, your friends, and your closest relatives will also be implicated because of you. I only give you one minute, one minute, you decide it yourself!!"
"Who is the murderer? Come forward right now!" Su Wushuang seemed to be crazy, staring at the crowd with blood-red eyes and shouting.
Everyone at the scene looked at the people next to them.
They did not expect that the murderer would be among them, but when they thought about it, it was indeed the case, because the exit to the outside world had been blocked, and the murderer must be among these people.
Time passed little by little.
A minute passed and the murderer did not come forward.
"Okay, since no one is willing to admit it, I can only check them one by one, Su Tai!!" Su Guoshi shouted loudly.
Su Tai, with feathers on his head, walked up to Su Guoshi, bowed and shouted, "Chief, please give me an order."
"Find out the movements of all clan members in the past half hour! If anyone lies or fails to cooperate, they will be executed on the spot!" Su Guoshi said.
"Yes!" Su Tai nodded, looked at everyone and shouted, "Everyone listen to the order and sit down on the spot. Don't move. I will ask people to question you one by one. Everyone should have heard what the patriarch said. Who
Anyone who dares to lie or refuse to cooperate will be killed without mercy!"
Everyone sat down where they were.
"Sit down." Su Qing pulled Xu Wenwen and Lin Zhiming to sit on the ground.
"Chief, I have something to say!"
A man wearing a dark palace uniform raised his hands and shouted.
Seeing this person, Lin Zhiming had a sneer on his face.
It was indeed not what he expected!
"What's the matter?" Su Guoshi asked.
"Just ten minutes ago, I saw a suspicious person opening the door of the deputy patriarch's house," the man said.
Hearing this, Su Wushuang excitedly rushed to the man and asked loudly, "Who is it?"
"That's the outsider!" the man said, pointing at Lin Zhiming.
Everyone's attention shifted to Lin Zhiming.
"Lin Zhiming, it's you!!" Su Wushuang turned around and rushed towards Lin Zhiming.
"Wushuang, stop!" Su Guoshi shouted.
Su Wushuang stopped, looked at Su Guoshi and shouted, "Brother, the murderer is definitely Lin Zhiming. I have a conflict with him. He saw that my great-great-grandson had extraordinary talents, so he strangled him in his infancy. This is definitely the case!"
"Wushuang, Lin Zhiming is a guest of our Xiansheng Clan on behalf of the Dragon Clan. No matter what, we must ask the matter clearly!" Su Guoshi said.
"What else are you asking? He is definitely the murderer. Brother, you must seek justice for my poor great-great-grandson!" Su Wushuang shouted excitedly.
"Lin Zhiming, stand up." Su Guoshi said.
Lin Zhiming stood up.
"It stands to reason that you are our guest, and we should treat you with courtesy. But what happened today is really too bad, so... I must interrogate you, and I hope you can cooperate!" Su Guoshi said.
Lin Zhiming looked at Su Guoshi and said solemnly, "Just ask."
"Are you really like what he said, that you have been to Wushuang's residence?" Su Guoshi pointed to the man next to him who testified against Lin Zhiming.
"I didn't know that was Su Wushuang's residence. Ten minutes ago, someone said that Su Lie wanted to see me and took me into the dark palace. They took me to the front of a house and said that Su Lie was inside.
I opened the door and didn't find Su Lie, but then I saw the man." Lin Zhiming pointed to the person who testified against him and said.
"Lie'er wants to see you? Lie'er, is this necessary?" Su Guoshi asked.
"Um...Father, to be honest, there is no such thing. I went to the toilet more than ten minutes ago and then came back. I did not say that I wanted to see Zhiming, nor did I ask anyone to find Lin Zhiming. Zhiming, I did all these things
Tell the truth." Su Lie said with a troubled expression.
"Lin Zhiming, what's your explanation?" Su Guoshi asked.
"I believed what Su Lie said, so the person who came to see me at that time used Su Lie's name. The place he took me to was most likely Su Wushuang's residence. After I got there, I just opened the door and entered the hall.
I didn't see Su Lie at that time, so I realized there might be some conspiracy, so I chose to leave immediately!" Lin Zhiming said.
"You lied, it was obviously you who killed my great-great-grandson!" Su Wushuang said excitedly.
"If I really killed your great-great-grandson, do you think, with my strength, I would have spared that man's life? I could have killed him directly, so that he would not be able to testify against me here, right?
What do you mean?" Lin Zhiming pointed at the man who testified against him and said.
After hearing Lin Zhiming's words, the excitement on Su Wushuang's face dissipated a lot.
Although he is angry, he is not a fool.
If it was really Lin Zhiming who killed his great-great-grandson, then...how could Lin Zhiming still have a witness alive?
With Lin Zhiming's skills, killing the witness was only a blink of an eye.
"What you said makes sense. However, since you said that you were guided to Wushuang's residence, can you find out who the person who guided you is? If the facts are really what you said.
Like that, the person who took you to Wushuang's residence to frame you must be related to the murderer, and even he is the murderer. As long as you find that person, your suspicion will naturally be eliminated!" Su Guoshi said.
"Yes, that's right, find that person. As long as you find that person, you will prove your innocence!" Su Wushuang said.
"I'm not sure that person is here. Maybe he is hiding somewhere?" Lin Zhiming said.
"Don't worry, everyone in the Xiansheng Clan is here." Su Guoshi said.
"Are you sure?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"My brother's barrier covers the entire Xian Sheng clan, and it is impossible to escape his perception anywhere. He said that everyone is here, so naturally everyone is here." Su Wushuang said.
"Okay!" Lin Zhiming nodded and said, "If everyone is here, then I will definitely be able to find him."
"Look for it!" Su Guoshi said.
Lin Zhiming nodded, and then began to search around.
Everyone raised their heads so that Lin Zhiming could see his face clearly.
Lin Zhiming looked over one by one and spent more than ten minutes looking at everyone's faces.
"Is there any?" Su Guoshi asked.
"There are also the guards of the secret palace and other staff. The other person was holding the certificate of the secret palace. I suspect that he is someone from the secret palace." Lin Zhiming said.
"Give you time, keep reading!" Su Guoshi said.
Lin Zhiming nodded, and then began to observe again.
After a few minutes, Lin Zhiming frowned.
He looked at everyone's faces, but he didn't find that familiar face.
