"Although my father's temper is impatient, this matter is too earth-shattering. He has no choice but to act cautiously!"
"At that time, my father had been the chief of the Burning Sun Tribe for many years, and his identity was different from before. He couldn't just say anything without solid evidence!"
The chief of the Giant Axe Tribe nodded slowly and said, "Yes. So far, everything was just Chief Yan's speculation. It's not unusual for children to look different from their parents. Without solid evidence, if one chief claimed that the other chief was a space resident, a war between the two tribes might break out!"
Yan Chihuo said, "That was exactly what my father was thinking. Therefore, he could only keep the incident to himself and keep it a secret.
"Just like that, several years later, Sha Yulan and her son came to the Furious Bears Tribe.
"Originally, how could a pair of orphans and widows make us so angry? But when my father thought of Xiong Wuji's suspicious identity, he grew anxious again and tried to test Xiong Wuji with the incident! "
The chief of the Giant Axe Tribe exclaimed in surprise and frowned. "I was wondering why Chief Yan was so agitated for a woman from space who was too weak to fight a baby and a baby who was still in swaddling clothes. He asked the three tribes to gather together and forced Xiong Wuji to drive them away, which almost led to a riot!"
Yan Chihuo said, "My father had been a hero for his whole life. However much he hated the space residents, he wouldn't have bothered a weak woman. His main purpose was to test Xiong Wuji's attitude.
"As it turned out, Xiong Wuji took the whole incident on his own and even challenged the three best experts of the three tribes in the arena. Even though he won, my father's suspicions have increased! "
"However, no matter how suspicious he was, Xiong Wuji had never harmed him. After all, Xiong Wuji did not do anything that harmed the interests of the Iron Plateau natives. My father was not sure whether he really did not know his background, or whether he was aware of his background but considered himself to be a real Iron Plateau native, or whether he was lurking in the darkness and planning a great scheme! "
"My father could only raise his vigilance and observe the situation!
"Then, a few years before the battle of the apocalypse, all the tribes were preparing for the upcoming war. It was even more inappropriate for my father to throw out the news at such a time, which might lead to the division of the six tribes. There was even talk of civil war!
"After the battle of the apocalypse, Xiong Wuji proposed a large-scale communication with the Flying Star Sector. My father recalled a lot of things in the past. I suspected that he had other motives, so I firmly opposed it. In the end, I couldn't bear it any longer and went to confront Xiong Wuji last night. "
"After some interrogation, Xiong Wuji did admit that more than ten years ago, before Xiong Dachuan died, he learned from Xiong Dachuan that his birth was related to him. The blood that flows is indeed the blood of flying stars! "
"Even at this point, my father still didn't want to expose his true face in front of everyone. Because my father knows of Xiong Wuji's valiant performance in the battle of the apocalypse and has built an unbreakable armor for him. If his identity is revealed, there will be a great competition between the Burning Sun Tribe and the Furious Bears Tribe!
"Therefore, my father warned Xiong Wuji that as long as he gave up the idea of getting in touch with the space residents, he would be able to do whatever he wanted. My father won't reveal this secret as long as he remains the chief of the Furious Bear Tribe! "
"My father didn't see through Xiong Wuji after all. I didn't expect him to be so vicious and merciless. At that time, he pretended to agree, but in the end, he killed him to silence him! "
Yan Chihuo finally finished. He was already choking with sobs.
The hundred thousand people in the camp were silent.
Although Yan Chihuo's story was full of twists and turns, it was still very convincing. Nobody could find any loopholes in it.
While observing Xiong Wuji's face, the chief of the Giant Axe Tribe said, "Yan Chihuo, can we read the letter of Chief Yan in your hand in person?"
Yan Chihuo sobbed. "Such a hidden letter can only be revealed once. Now that the remaining spiritual gas on it has been used up, it will never be seen again! However, I examined it carefully and confirmed that it was indeed my father's handwriting! "
The chief of the Giant Axe Tribe frowned even harder. "So to speak, you still don't have any solid proof?"
Yan Chihuo held his head high and stared at Xiong Wuji with bloodshot eyes, as if he were going to bite off a piece of meat from the guy's body. He said, "I swear on my head that what I said is true! If you want proof, it's very simple. All you need to do is ask Xiong Wuji to stand on the 'Truth Cabinet' enshrined in the Feathered Snakes Tribe and ask him if he is a space resident. That will do!
"If Xiong Wuji dares to stand on the Truth Cabinet and say 'I am not a space resident' resolutely, we will admit that the murderer is somebody else and that we have wronged him. I can even kowtow to him and apologize!
"If he dares not, he must be guilty. If he knew that he was a space resident, everything I said just now would be true!
"Xiong Wuji, do you dare to stand on the Truth Cabinet? Do you? "
Yan Chihuo's roars were louder and louder. The qi-trainers of the Burning Sun Tribe behind him roared at the same time, "The Truth Cabinet! Stand on the Truth Cabinet! "
The qi-trainers of the Furious Bears Tribe were multiple times more numerous than those of the enemy, but their morale was lower than ever.
Many of them looked at each other in bewilderment anxiously, unwilling to believe anything that the other party had said. They were all looking at Xiong Wuji, hoping that he would give a strong rebuttal immediately and even stand on the Truth Cabinet to prove his innocence and wash away the shameful slander!
Wu Mayan grabbed Li Yao's hands hard and said, his eyes red, "The Truth Cabinet is a powerful treasure that has existed since before the apocalypse. It is said that it can test whether or not someone is lying. Not only can it detect changes such as heartbeat and pulse, it can also monitor the waves of the soul. It is absolutely accurate!
"However, the operation of the Truth Cabinet is very complicated, and a lot of resources are required to activate it every time. Therefore, it is not used easily. Right now, it is sealed in the temple of the Feathered Snakes Tribe!"
The chief of the Feathered Snakes Tribe stared at Xiong Wuji solemnly. Her high-pitched voice was even lower than before. "Chief Xiong, you heard Yan Chihuo's accusation clearly just now! Logically speaking, it is very inappropriate to test the authenticity of a chief of a tribe with such a piece of magical equipment as the Truth Cabinet. However, the incident is too appalling and has seriously affected the relationship among the six tribes!
"I wonder, Chief Xiong, can you provide any solid proof? Can you refute Yan Chihuo's accusation?
"If you can't provide any proof, the Feathered Snakes Tribe strongly suggests that Chief Xiong go to the Truth Cabinet. Prove that you are not a space resident! "
The chief of the Giant Axe Tribe said solemnly, "The same goes for the Giant Axe Tribe! Such an absurd accusation is a great insult to the dignity of the Furious Bears Tribe. If Chief Xiong is proved to be not a space resident in the Truth Cabinet, the Giant Axe Tribe is willing to offer thirty percent of the trophies that we deserve as an apology!
"Xiong Wuji, if you are not a space resident, I will chop off my head and compensate you!" Yan Chihuo was a man with a fiery temper. "Pah! Pah!" He patted his neck until it turned red.
Everyone held their breaths. Waiting for Xiong Wuji's response.
Xiong Wuji's face was twitching. He gnashed his teeth and said, "I am willing to go to the Truth Cabinet to prove that I did not kill Chief Yan or instruct anybody to kill him!"
"No!"
Yan Chihuo shouted. "Only the simplest right and wrong judgment can be completely detected by the Truth Cabinet! There are many ways to bypass the examination of the Truth Cabinet if the questions are too complicated!
"For example, you could've made a deal with your companions a long time ago. Under certain conditions, as long as you coughed or even blinked, your companions would immediately 'kill you'!
"If you say, 'I did not kill anyone. I did not instruct anybody to kill anyone ', it will be too vague and mysterious. It will be very easy to bypass the investigation of the Truth Cabinet!
"If you are truly innocent, you can go to the Truth Cabinet and say 'I am not a space resident' openly! Do you dare? "
The chief of the Feathered Snakes Tribe nodded, too. "Yan Chihuo is quite right. The Truth Cabinet can directly monitor heartbeat, blood flow, rhythm of spiritual gas, and vibration of the soul. It is absolutely accurate!
"But it is just a dead object after all. Questions that are too complicated can be easily deceived. After all, it is very easy to be fooled. After all, even if you hide the most critical one, the other nine will still be true, but the meaning may be completely different!
"Chief Xiong, since you are willing to go to the Truth Cabinet, why don't you simply say 'I am not a space resident'? As long as you prove your innocence, the Feathered Snakes Tribe is also willing to offer thirty percent of our trophies as compensation for offending the dignity of the Furious Bears Tribe! "
Yan Xibei, who had been listening to everybody's debate in silence, finally opened his mouth. "The Burning Sun Tribe is the perpetrator of the incident. Since the Giant Axe Tribe and the Feathered Snakes Tribe are willing to offer thirty percent of their trophies as compensation, I declare on behalf of the Burning Sun Tribe that, if Chief Xiong proves that you are not a space resident, the Burning Sun Tribe is willing to offer fifty percent of our trophies as compensation to the Furious Bears Tribe!"
After hearing his declaration, the crowd was buzzing again.
The three tribes had all agreed to offer their trophies as compensation, which was more than all the trophies that a tribe was entitled to in total. Their sincerity was more than enough.
Sorrow beamed out of Yan Xibei's face. He sighed and said, "This incident is both the misfortune of the Burning Sun Tribe and the common misfortune of the six tribes. Right now, in order to settle the dispute as soon as possible, we must prove Chief Xiong's innocence as soon as possible. Going to the Truth Cabinet is the best way! Heaven Wolves Tribe, Silver Moon Tribe, what do you say? "
The Heaven Wolves Tribe and the Silver Moon Tribe had always been on good terms with the Furious Bears Tribe. But now that the other party had put it that way, what else could they say?
The chiefs of the two tribes looked at each other and said to Xiong Wuji, "Chief Xiong, with everything coming to this point, there is no other way. Just go to the Truth Cabinet and prove your innocence! Rest assured. As long as you prove that you are not a space resident, we will certainly wash away the humiliation that you suffered just now! Also, we will offer ten percent of our trophies as compensation! "
"Let's go! Who's scared of you?"
"Chief, just go to the Truth Cabinet! How can you be a space resident? It's impossible. It's absolutely impossible! "
"Chief, just go to the Truth Cabinet and show them that you are a real hero of Iron Plateau!"
Inside the Furious Bears Tribe, many qi-trainers were shouting and yelling, not believing that Xiong Wuji was a space resident at all.
Xiong Wuji lowered his head, lost for words.
He was like a black hole that absorbed all the light. After half a minute of silence, he suddenly raised his head.
