"Hold on, I have a few words to say. Hall Master, please listen to me before condemning him."
Just as everyone was in awe of Mo Qingyun's performance, the Second Elder, who had been silent all this while, suddenly broke the silence.
Hearing the Second Elder's words, everyone was shocked and turned to look at him.
They had not expected the Second Elder to speak at this time.
Seeing the Second Elder's actions, the expressions of the Great Elder's faction immediately turned ugly.
In their opinion, the Second Elder and the Great Elder had always been at odds. For him to speak at this time, it must be to add insult to injury.
When the Great Elder and the others thought of this, they immediately glared at the Second Elder with intense anger.
The second elder didn't care about the first elder and the others' angry gazes. He waved his hand at Bing Mo and said, "Bing Mo, go and bring those people here. I think everyone will be very interested in what they have to say."
"Yes!"
Hearing the Second Elder's orders, Bing Mo immediately turned and left, bringing four middle-aged men with him.
When the four middle-aged men arrived, they had fearful expressions on their faces as they bowed to Polar Snow and the others.
"The four of you, truthfully tell everyone what you saw that day."
Seeing the four men being brought over, the Second Elder waved his hand casually at them.
Hearing the Second Elder's orders, the four of them had fearful expressions as they began to describe what they had seen.
"That day at the bottom of the Fire Sea, when we were looking for the 100-million-year-old fire coral, we happened to see Prince Bingzheng and the others."
"Prince Bingzheng and the others were one step ahead of us and found a 100-million-year-old fire coral. We could only watch from afar with envy."
"Who knew that there were three fire serpents guarding the 100-million-year-old fire coral? They discovered Prince Bingzheng and the others and attacked them."
At this point, one of them pointed at Mo Qingyun and said, "Not long after, this Prince arrived and secretly stole the 100-million-year-old fire coral."
"Perhaps he was worried that his plan would be exposed, so he ambushed Prince Bingzheng and the others and severely injured them."
"After injuring Prince Bingzheng and the others, he quickly escaped."
…
The four of them spoke excitedly, as if they were watching a live broadcast.
After the four of them finished speaking, the way everyone looked at Mo Qingyun underwent a huge change.
They felt that Mo Qingyun would not be able to defend himself in such a situation.
"Brat, they are not this old man's disciples. What else do you have to say?"
After hearing the four's words, the First Elder sneered and immediately questioned Mo Qingyun.
Seeing the Great Elder questioning Mo Qingyun, Bing Baijun and the others immediately tensed up.
"This is bad. I didn't expect the Second Elder to interfere."
"Second Elder is too sinister. He actually used such a method."
"Let's first think of a way to absolve Junior Apprentice-Nephew Mo."
…
Zhang Qingming and the others looked nervous as their minds spun quickly.
Once Mo Qingyun was convicted, the First Elder would definitely kill Mo Qingyun on the spot.
"The situation is not good. I wonder how he will deal with it."
Looking at Mo Qingyun in front of her, Murong Nana's pretty face tensed up as she glanced at Polar Snow.
Polar Snow clenched his fists and secretly accumulated Saint Power, ready to strike at any time.
Clearly, Polar Snow was preparing to save Mo Qingyun if he was in danger.
Under everyone's gaze, Mo Qingyun still looked indifferent. Looking at the four people the Second Elder had brought, he said, "Since the four of you were present, I will ask you a few simple questions."
Without waiting for the four to answer, Mo Qingyun began to ask them.
"When I attacked Bingzheng and the others, was the Three-headed Flame Serpent killed?"
"No!"
"When I attacked Bingzheng and the others, was the Three-headed Flame Serpent noticed?"
"Yes, when it saw you picking the 100-million-year-old Fire Coral, the Three-headed Flame Serpent attacked you."
"Then, should I attack the Three-headed Flame Serpent first or Bingzheng and the others?"
"Attack the Three-headed Flame Serpent first, but …"
"Very well, I already have the answers I want."
Mo Qingyun got the answers he wanted from the four of them. He revealed a satisfied smile and said, "The four of you said that when the Three-headed Flame Serpent was fighting with Bingzheng and the others, I took the opportunity to steal the 100-million-year-old Fire Coral."
"After I picked the 100-million-year-old Fire Coral, I attacked the Three-headed Flame Serpent first. Doesn't this mean that I was helping Bingzheng and the others, and not attacking them? Don't you think you should explain? "
"But you were the one who attacked and pushed Bingzheng and the others to the bottom of the sea of fire."
"That's right. We saw it with our own eyes. It can't be fake."
Seeing that Mo Qingyun had led them astray, the few of them immediately changed their tone.
Unfortunately, even though they had changed their tone, it was of no use.
"You're right. Bingzheng and the others were indeed pushed to the bottom of the sea of fire by me, but they brought it upon themselves."
Faced with the four's questioning, Mo Qingyun's aura did not weaken at all. He calmly admitted the truth and said, "However, the truth is not what you said. When I helped Bingzheng and the others to defeat the Three-headed Flame Serpent, they saw that I had the 100-million-year-old Fire Coral and wanted to repay my kindness with ingratitude. They attacked me together."
"Unfortunately, they were too weak and were pushed to the bottom of the sea by me."
"After that, I remembered that they were from the same sect, so I did not kill them. This was a great favor to them. Is this wrong?"
"If this is wrong, I don't mind killing them now to make up for my mistake."
"How dare you!"
Hearing Mo Qingyun's words, the First Elder's face darkened and he immediately shouted at Mo Qingyun.
Mo Qingyun did not care about the First Elder's anger at all. He turned his head to look at the four and asked, "Tell me, did I do anything wrong?"
"No … No!"
Faced with Mo Qingyun's cold questioning, the four were immediately at a loss for words. They were so frightened that cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.
They had personally witnessed Mo Qingyun's overbearing and ruthless behavior.
If they angered Mo Qingyun, Mo Qingyun would not hesitate to kill the four of them on the spot.
Seeing that the four of them were silent, Mo Qingyun's face turned cold and he continued to question them, "The four of you, tell me honestly. Why did you twist the truth? Who ordered you to do this? What is your motive?"
Faced with Mo Qingyun's questioning, the four of them panicked and they could not help but look at the Second Elder.
Seeing their actions, Mo Qingyun's gaze turned cold and he looked at the Second Elder coldly.
Seeing Mo Qingyun's behavior, everyone held their breaths and their expressions became tense.
Looking at Mo Qingyun's posture, it seemed that he was going to confront the Second Elder again.
