"I'll die!" Xia Wen's father slapped himself on the head.
Eldest Young Master rushed forward to stop him.
Swoosh!
A black and white arrow shot into Xia Wen's father's hand.
His arrow stopped Xia Wen's father in his tracks.
He was the one who had asked for Xia Wen's father's death, but now he was trying to stop him.
"What do you mean?" Asked Xia Wen's father.
"I just want to see if you will really die for a nephew if you don't even dare to let your son live." Xia Zhi said lightly.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
At this moment, three figures flew in from the outside. These three people directly landed in the middle of the crowd.
"Greetings, Elders," Xia Wen's father and Eldest Young Master said hurriedly.
The surrounding people also bowed in acknowledgement.
The three Elders took a step forward. "Xiatian Jie, what's going on here?"
Xia Wen's father stepped forward. "Elder, this kid from the branch family has gone too far. He killed my son and was going to attack Xiaolong, forcing me to kill myself."
Tell on him!
Xiatian Jie did not hesitate to tell on him.
He knew he could not defeat Xiatian in a fight. Although he had been very confident in himself, he realized he was no match for Xiatian.
He also saw Xiatian's potential.
Therefore, he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to tell on Xiatian.
As long as Xiatian was killed, no one would be able to threaten Xia Long's position.
Xia Long was the hope of the Fifth Gate. He did not want him to fail.
Although Xia Long had not used his full strength today, he was worried that Xiatian had not used his full strength when he saw how easily Xiatian handled the situation.
"Hmm?" One of the Elders frowned and turned to Xiatian. "I am the Twelfth Elder of the Xia Family. Behind me are the Thirteenth Elder and the Fourteenth Elder. Although this is the time of the Grand Assembly, you have killed a member of the Xia Family. We have the right to kill you here. Do you agree?"
"Convinced?" Xiatian smirked. "Where are you standing now?"
"What's wrong with the Xia Family?" Asked the Twelfth Elder.
"It's the forty-ninth door. It's also where I live," Xiatian said.
Hearing this, the twelfth elder frowned. Obviously, Xiatian's words made him think of something.
"Look at the people around you. Each and every one of them is ferocious. Why are they here? Could it be that he was here to watch the show? Do you believe it? " Xiatian's aura was not weak at all. He looked at the Twelfth Elder and said, "By the way, let me ask you again. If someone went to your house and wanted to kill you, what would you do?"
The Twelfth Elder was an old monster who had lived for tens of thousands of years. Naturally, he had a lot of experience.
He now understood what had happened.
"Elder, don't listen to him. Now that he has killed someone, everyone has seen it. Moreover, he even used Xiaolong's life to threaten me, telling me to commit suicide. Everyone has seen it." Xia Tianjie said.
"Are you dead?" Asked Xiatian.
"I …"
"If I really wanted you dead, would you still be standing here talking to me?" Asked Xiatian Jie again.
"I'm not dead because I didn't fall for your trick." Xiatian Jie started to quibble. He did not care what the truth was. He just wanted to kill Xiatian Jie. Because only then, no one would be able to threaten his position.
He also knew that the people here did not want to get into trouble.
Therefore, no matter what he said, no one would stand out to testify for Xiatian Jie.
The Twelfth Elder looked at Xiatian Jie.
"Let me put it simply. If I wanted you dead, you would have been dead long ago. I wouldn't be standing here making things up." Xiatian Jie was really impressed by Xiatian Jie.
"Elder, he's just a disciple from the 49th branch. You're wise. Why would you believe him? Moreover, I'm from the main family. You know how strong I am. This kid said that he could kill me. If he didn't sneak attack Xia Long just now, I wouldn't have been threatened by him. Fortunately, I saved Xia Long. That's why he didn't succeed," Xiatian Jie said.
Xiatian Jie did not say anything. He waited for the Twelfth Elder's reply.
"No matter what, you killed someone. This matter has to be dealt with. Moreover, you said that everyone here wants to harm you? Do you have any evidence? You said that Xiatian Jie is lying. Do you have any evidence? We're looking at evidence. If you don't, we have the right to punish you, "the Twelfth Elder said.
Shaking his head!
Xiatian Jie kept shaking his head. He now understood that the Twelfth Elder was obviously on Xiatian Jie's side.
After all, Xiatian Jie was from the main family. Xiatian Jie was just a disciple from the branch.
"You're from the main family. No one will believe what I say. So it's useless for me to say more, right?" Xiatian Asked.
"No, we're looking at evidence. The evidence in front of us all points to you. You can't escape from the murder alone," the Twelfth Elder said.
Xiatian Jie now understood that the Twelfth Elder was avoiding the important points. He didn't care about what Xiatian Jie said before. He also didn't care that this was Xiatian's yard. He also didn't care what these people were here for.
He just insisted that Xiatian Jie killed someone. He even had evidence.
How could there be evidence?
Not to mention the witnesses. Everyone here had a part in it. How could they harm themselves?
"Sigh, it seems that favoritism is inevitable." Xiatian Jie shook his head.
"I said, I'll give you time to find evidence. Once you find it, we'll make the decision for you," the Twelfth Elder said.
"I don't have evidence." Xiatian Jie said. He knew that even if he had evidence, the other party would use new tricks. They obviously wanted to protect Xiatian Jie from the main family and kill Xiatian Jie.
As for the dirty deals Xiatian Jie had with these elders, Xiatian Jie had no idea.
"Okay, since you don't have evidence, don't blame us." The Twelfth Elder walked directly to Xiatian Jie.
"In the end, it's just because you have a strong backer," Xiatian Jie said.
"Humph, you have a backer too," Xiatian Jie said in a low voice. Although his voice wasn't loud, everyone heard it.
He was telling everyone that he had done so.
The main family's dignity wasn't to be challenged.
"In this day and age, if you don't have a backer, you won't be able to survive." Xiatian Jie Jie smiled, "Luckily, I have a backer too."
"Your backer? Can your backer compare to the Twelfth Elder? In our eyes, your backer is just a joke, "Xiatian Jie Jie said in disdain.
"Who are you calling a joke?"
