Fang Che confusedly asked, "Grandfather has a treasure map? What treasure map?"
He imdiately reacted, blushing, and said, "This information is false. My Big Brother Su is definitely not the kind of person you say he is! If you go back to Bibo City and ask anyone, they all know how good my Big Brother Su is to ! My Big Brother Su is not here now, why slander him?"
"Could sothing have happened to my Big Brother Su?!"
Fang Che stood up nervously and asked, "What happened to my Big Brother Su?"
"Now it’s asking you!"
Xiang Xinghe’s voice was severe.
"My Big Brother Su is a good person! No matter how you ask, that’s my answer and it won’t change!"
Fang Che righteously declared, "He is the best elder brother of my life!"
Xiang Xinghe’s hawk-like eyes looked at Fang Che, but Fang Che fearlessly stared back.
His eyes were full of openness!
Integrity!
Xiang Xinghe stated word by word, "But later, after the Su Family’s downfall, it was discovered that the Su Family was actually a vassal family of the Yixin Sect!"
Fang Che was unexpectedly bewildered, "What?!"
"Do you an you didn’t know about this?!"
"I had no clue!"
"Hmm?"
"I had no clue!"
Fang Che was so anxious he was sweating profusely, "I really had no clue about this. How could my Big Brother Su’s family be part of a demon sect? Although their family gave him a lot, how could they be a demon sect? This..."
It seed that in his panic, he subconsciously spoke in dialect.
Xiang Xinghe snorted and said, "The Su Family went out one night and never returned, which included your good brother Su Yue."
"I don’t know about that either."
Fang Che seed to regain so composure.
"Before they left the city, your good brother Su Yue ca to see you once, then he left the city and they all died. I want to know, what did you talk about that day?"
Xiang Xinghe’s eyes were as sharp as an eagle’s.
"That day?..."
Fang Che racked his brain, and after a long ti, he recalled, "That day should have been when I just woke up after being knocked unconscious by my cousin. Big Brother Su Yue ca to see , brought sothing... I was weak at that ti, and Big Brother Su seed to have left after sitting for a while."
"What did you talk about?" Xiang Xinghe asked.
"What did we talk about... Big Brother Su smiled and asked , ’Are you feeling better?’ I said, ’Thanks, Big Brother, you didn’t have to bring anything when you ca.’ Big Brother Su said, ’Though you and I are brothers, etiquette cannot be abolished.’ I said, ’Big Brother Su, you ca at the right ti, help relieve myself...’ "
Fang Che slowly recalled, muttering his narrative.
The listeners had peculiar expressions on their faces.
Until "Big Brother Su said, ’Then rest well, take good care after recovering from the major illness. I’m leaving now.’ I said, ’Big Brother Su, stay a little longer,’ but he didn’t agree. He smiled and said, ’You and I are brothers; there’s a long future ahead...’ and then he left."
Xiang Xinghe’s mouth twitched, "Just that?"
"Just that!"
"You rember these mundane matters so clearly?"
"Later I rembered, a few days after that, sothing happened to Big Brother Su’s family, and then I kept recalling that day."
Fang Che sighed, "It wasn’t until much later that I knew Big Brother Su was safe, and I was extrely thrilled..."
Xiang Xinghe coughed to interrupt.
"On the night the Su Family went out, you also left the city."
Xiang Xinghe said, "That night, where did you go?"
Fang Che was confused, "Which night?"
"That night, you told the guard you were going to the brothel to find a girl, but in reality, you lied! You didn’t go to the brothel at all that night; you went around and then left the city!"
"After leaving the city, your whereabouts were unknown. Where did you go?"
Xiang Xinghe’s voice was intensely oppressive.
"That night... Let think which night it was."
Fang Che pondered, "I can’t rember..."
"Let remind you, when you ca back, you brought a deer with you."
"Oh oh oh, I rember now, I rember."
Fang Che suddenly understood, "That day, it was like this: I was ho alone, bored, and just broke through to a samurai, felt invincible, so I thought of having so good food. So, I went out hunting, to relax as well, after all, my mother wasn’t ho, and no one was supervising ."
"Then why did you tell the guard you were going to find a girl?"
"That guard was too nosy!"
Fang Che angrily said, "As the Cousin Young Master of the Fang Family, do I need to report my outings to him? He actually ca up and asked where I was going. Do I owe him an explanation?"
Fang Che snorted and said, "Just keep an eye on your own gate, yet you ask where I’m going... I just said, I’m going to find a girl, what’s it to you?"
"It’s just to annoy him on purpose."
Fang Che said, "Is there any problem with that?"
"There’s a big problem, you even lied to your family’s guard?"
"I even lie to my mom, is there a problem?"
"..."
Xiang Xinghe’s face twisted.
"Weren’t you just recovering from a serious injury? You still dared to go hunting?"
"What does recovering from a serious injury have to do with hunting? I am a highly skilled samurai. Do I need several days’ rest to hunt?"
Fang Che answered fluently.
Xiang Xinghe had to change the topic, "Then where did you go?"
"Went to the mountain outside the city and caught a deer to eat on the way back."
"Does hunting a deer take two days?"
"I could take ten days if I like."
Fang Che grew impatient, "This esteed instructor, is there any suspicion in this?"
Xiang Xinghe said, "There’s a significant suspicion; you went out that night, and the Su Family also left that night. You ca back, but they didn’t return. Your movents after leaving can’t be traced."
Fang Che said calmly, "So, you think I killed the Su Family?"
"At the very least, it’s related to you."
Fang Che said, "Since you say it’s related, then provide the evidence. Why question ?"
He looked aggrieved, "At the ti, I just broke through to being a First Grade Warrior, happily went for a hunt, and you associate it with the life and death of a group of grandmasters? This is strange indeed."
Xiang Xinghe coldly said, "What you couldn’t do, your master might have been able to."
Fang Che shrugged, "If you investigated , then you should know I took a master after coming back to the city; I didn’t know my master before then."
Xiang Xinghe said, "Putting on a show is very easy."
Fang Che snickered once, "This instructor, if you have evidence, please provide it, both material and witness proof will do. Why make it difficult for ? As a student, I even suspect you’re a spy from the Wei Wo Zheng Sect, how do you prove yourself?"
Suddenly rembering sothing, he said, "Oh, just now you ntioned the Su Family is affiliated with the demon sect. According to your logic, is this suspicion supposed to give credit? If so, I don’t mind admitting it."
Xiang Xinghe’s face turned as black as charcoal.
Zhao Shanhe coughed once.
Xiang Xinghe then pulled out a second paper and asked, "After the Su Family incident, you used sches to seize Su Family’s property..."
"How could that be seizing?"
Fang Che was furious, "I was helping my Big Brother Su safeguard his property, how did it beco seizing?"
"But your safeguarding was actually taking it as your own."
"Is that so? Do you have any evidence?"
Fang Che snorted, "All of Big Brother Su’s properties, I’ve kept separately without touching. I only used so silver notes, but I’ve long since replaced them with equivalent or surpassing Heavenly Treasures. I can confidently say that Big Brother Su’s properties are in my hands are currently appreciating."
"One day, when Big Brother Su returns, I will hand over the properties, not a cent less and greatly increased."
"Even though Big Brother Su has repeatedly told I could spend as I please, how could I, Fang Che, be so shaless?"
Xiang Xinghe snorted, "Do you have evidence for what you say?"
Fang Che repeatedly ntioned evidence, and Xiang Xinghe finally gained an advantage.
"Of course, there’s evidence! The Guardian Hall issued a property confirmation docunt at that ti, stamped and sealed. Both the confirmation docunt and the properties are now in my scholar residence’s side room, visible without a trip back to Bibo City."
Fang Che said, "I used so of the money inside, then used equivalent or superior Heavenly Treasures and Spirit Crystals to replace them, all of which are listed separately. True or not, it can be seen at a glance. If there’s any falsehood, I’m willing to accept any punishnt!"
Everyone was stunned.
Fang Che proudly looked around, a face without the slightest guilt.
He said so, and indeed did so.
The Su Family’s assets, at present, were indeed being replenished with Spirit Crystals and Heavenly Treasures, with each part having a note of explanation.
This was effortless.
For Fang Che, who acted ticulously and foresaw this loophole, it wasn’t a difficulty at all.
He was prepared for soone to co auditing at any ti.
Xiang Xinghe’s face turned somber and he asked again, "Then after you proposed the... um, safeguarding, the Su Family was exterminated. How do you explain this?"
Fang Che looked as though he found it ridiculous, "Does the instructor know what you’re talking about? As everyone knows, the Su Family’s extermination was done by the demon sect; and you said the Su Family were part of the demon sect, so whether they were silenced or whatever, could I have a say in it?"
"Besides, you say the Su Family are demon sect, then call a murderer, sotis an economic criminal, then a mber of the demon sect, don’t you find this contradictory and illogical?"
Xiang Xinghe suddenly, intensely stared at Fang Che, "Your master, the Flying Sky Saber King Sun Yuan, has been confird as a mber of the Yixin Sect in the demon sect!"
Fang Che was stunned, "I didn’t know. My master is also quite kind to ."
"I’m talking about identity issues,"
Xiang Xinghe said.
"Yes, so what? My master is highly skilled and took as his disciple, teaching martial arts; firstly, I’m very grateful, secondly, do you think I had the grounds or power to resist?"
"My master is the Saber King!"
"As for the identity you ntioned, what does it have to do with ? Whether my master is of the demon sect or a righteous figure, it doesn’t matter... What are you trying to say, instructor?"
Fang Che frowned, then suddenly realized, "Are you trying to say, because my master is from the demon sect, I must be too?"
