In those slender phoenix eyes, a trace of obvious disdain flashed, making the murderous intent in Nie Xiong’s eyes even more intense, his hands already wrapped in a layer of blue light.
"So, do you admit to everything that Mu Qingge just said?" Nie Xiong continued to press.
Han Caicai sneered, her eyes full of mockery, speaking as if bestowing a favor: "Truly foolish, believing whatever others say."
"Do you seek death!" Nie Xiong, enraged, was about to unleash a martial art.
However, he was stopped by the calm Family Head of the Nie Family. His pair of crimson eyes had been like this ever since his son died, making him appear dark and frightening.
He stopped Nie Xiong, stepped forward, his blood-red eyes sweeping over Han Caicai, then looked at Mu Qingge and asked, "What evidence do you have to prove that what you said earlier is true?" He was not being rational, but he did not want to miss the real culprit while avenging his son.
"Evidence?" Mu Qingge smirked, eyes showing a self-mocking gaze: "I foolishly trusted the golden brand of Wanxiang Building and got entangled in this ss because of it."
She looked at Han Caicai, furiously asking aloud: "Today, I must ask Young Master Han, I am rely an outlander passing through Zhi City, rely going to your Wanxiang Building to purchase so information. Why drag into this muddy water? What has it to do with if your Wanxiang Building wants to dominate Zhi City single-handedly? Is this because you see as a foreigner without support?"
At this, she passionately addressed the army of Zhi City: "Everyone, when did I ever say that the elixir was mine? And when did I ever appear and make any statent? I was inexplicably invited by the elder of Wanxiang Building to participate in an auction, only to beco the target of you all. Initially, I was contemplating how to resolve this issue when Young Master Han sought out, demanding I leave Zhi City according to his arranged path. It wasn’t until I left the forest that I realized I had been used!"
Mu Qingge’s expression was vividly lifelike, as if she were the greatest victim in the entire ordeal.
Han Caicai watched her performance in silence, seemingly dismissing the entire crowd of Zhi City.
Mu Qingge’s followers were even more stupefied, as if unaware that their lord had such theatrical talent, such a side to her.
"No! I clearly saw the elder of Wanxiang Building enter your private box to retrieve the Nine Lives Reversal Pill and conduct a transaction with !" Just when the people of Zhi City were about to be convinced by Mu Qingge’s acting, soone raised a doubt.
The one speaking was, naturally, Zhu Li.
His mory of Mu Qingge was vivid, first disdainful of her ability to enter Wanxiang Building’s auction, then amazed by her appearance and deanor. Later, they engaged in an intense competition for the elixir, and although he won in the end, he lost all his fortune.
Zhu Li’s questioning made many begin to hesitate again.
A cold glint flashed deep in Mu Qingge’s clear eyes, revealing a sorrowful expression, as she began to laugh softly.
Contained in that laughter seed to be endless grievances. "If it were my elixir, would I still compete with you in bidding? I am also quite curious, obviously, you won. Why then did the elder enter not your room but mine, and afterward, engage in aningless chatter before taking his leave? Even going so far as to prevent from leaving through the main entrance after the auction and directing to depart via the hidden passage."
This statent was extrely vague but made one feel it was closer to the truth.
If every doubt were explained so clearly, wouldn’t it raise even more suspicion?
"Until today, I finally understand. Everything was calculated by soone for a despicable and unspeakable purpose." After saying this, Mu Qingge’s clear eyes, filled with hatred, looked toward Han Caicai, once again accusing the mastermind behind the scenes.
