"Since Lord Nangong wants to hear it, I'll tell you what happened then. My brothers from the Chen Family and the Dongfang Family are here anyway. As for whether I'm telling the truth, they can testify for me," Ji Zhenglin said.
Dongfang Fei Bai glanced at Chen Hongyuan, only to see that Chen Hongyuan was calm.
He didn't want to get involved in this fight. After all, he couldn't afford to offend either the Ji Family or the Nangong Family.
However, Chen Hongyuan didn't mind. They were only witnesses. As long as Ji Zhenglin wasn't lying, he didn't need to do anything.
He only needed to admit that Ji Zhenglin was telling the truth. Moreover, they knew what had happened. If they really wanted to argue, it was between the Ji Family and the Nangong Family. What did it have to do with them?
Nangong Chengye looked at Chen Hongyuan and Dongfang Fei Bai and hesitated. Did something really happen?
If the Nangong Nobles had really done something embarrassing, then the Nangong Nobles would be the ones to lose face under such circumstances.
After all, the Nine Great Clans were here. If the Nangong Family did something bad, it would have a huge impact.
However, he had already spoken, and before he could decide whether he should continue or not, the kid in front of him had already opened his mouth.
"When we entered the Death Zone, we were surrounded by a group of Poison Horned Armored Pythons. My senior disciple dragged us to find the Poison Horned Armored Pythons' weakness for the sake of everyone's safety. In the end, we successfully killed one Armored Python and created an opening for everyone to escape.
However, my senior disciple was poisoned when killing the Armored Python. In the process of escaping, my senior disciple was poisoned, so we had no choice but to stop for a while.
After a discussion, I brought my two junior disciples back to retrieve the antidote. In the end, when I brought my people back to retrieve the antidote, the Nangong Family abandoned us and left. Nangong Family Head, do you think that it has anything to do with us that none of your people have returned? "Ji Zhenglin said.
Nangong Chengye's face turned pale. He didn't think that the Nangong Family would abandon the alliance and leave with their people.
If that was the case, then none of them had returned. They asked for it.
However, he could not believe the Ji Clan's side of the story, so he turned to look at Dongfang Fei Bai and Chen Hongyuan.
"Are they telling the truth?" Nangong Chengye asked the two of them.
"Family Head Nangong, what he said is the truth. Before we left, the Nangong Nobles and the Ji Family had been arguing with each other. Therefore, the two of us left when he brought his men back to search for the antidote. As for whether the Ji Family and the Nangong Nobles separated in the end, I have no idea! "Chen Hongyuan stood up and said indifferently.
He wasn't biased towards either side. Although he was sure that the NanGong Nobles had left, he didn't want to say it out loud.
If that was the case, then Nangong Chengye would truly lose face. He might even bear a grudge against him and the Chen Clan.
Therefore, there were some things that he could not point out even if he knew.
Back then, the Ji Family wholeheartedly wanted to save people, while the Nangong Family wholeheartedly wanted to search for treasures.
"I left a day earlier than Brother Hong Yuan, so I don't know if they split up after that!" Dongfang Fei Bai said.
When immortals fight, mortals suffer!
Although the NanGong Nobles were also part of the Nine Great Families, their strength was far inferior to the Three Great Families.
He didn't want to get involved in these conflicts. Therefore, even though he knew some things, he didn't want to offend either side.
"So, the two of them don't know if you split up? Doesn't that mean that you can say whatever you want?" Nangong Chengye let out a sigh of relief when he heard this answer.
Regardless of whether the NanGong Nobles were in the wrong or not, if they confirmed that the NanGong Nobles had done such a thing in front of so many other families, who would dare to cooperate with the NanGong Nobles in the future?
Everyone knew that the NanGong Nobles didn't keep their alliance. They would abandon it if they wanted to.
However, there was no evidence to prove that the NanGong Nobles had split up with the Ji Family. This way, the NanGong Nobles wouldn't be so embarrassed. They could even make a false accusation!
"Since the head of the NanGong Family thinks that I'm lying and slandering the NanGong Nobles, you can think whatever you want. Anyway, I'm just telling the truth. Regardless of whether the other families believe it or not, at least the Ji Family knows and believes in the NanGong Nobles!" Ji Zhenglin was already holding a grudge against the NanGong Nobles. Now that the NanGong Nobles thought that he was slandering the NanGong Nobles, he was too lazy to say anything.
Regardless of whether the other families believed him or not, he believed that even if the other families didn't completely believe him, they wouldn't believe that the NanGong Nobles were innocent.
"What about our people? Where did they go? " At this moment, the head of the Shang Guancheng Nobles and the head of the Gongsun Nobles, Gongsun Mingde, asked anxiously.
They didn't want to know if there was a conflict between the Ji Family and the NanGong Nobles, but they had entrusted their people to these two families.
Now that the Ji Family, the Chen Family, and the Dongfang Nobles had returned, only the three families hadn't returned yet. How could they not be anxious?
"I think you should ask the NanGong Nobles when they return. Because they left with the NanGong Nobles! "Ji Zhenghong stood up and said.
Back then, he had fainted from the poison. When he woke up, the NanGong Nobles had already left, leaving only a dozen or so people from the Ji Family.
"This …" Gongsun Mingde and Shang Guancheng were in a difficult position.
Not a single person from the NanGong Nobles had returned. Who could they ask?
Even if the head of the NanGong Nobles was here, he didn't know anything about the Death Zone. Didn't that mean they would never know the truth?
Meanwhile, Nangong Chengye's face turned red and green. The people from the Ji Family were simply humiliating him.
He knew that not a single person from the NanGong Nobles had returned. Who could he ask?
Whoosh!
However, at this moment, the exit of the Death Zone once again shone with a golden light!
"Could it be that they've returned?" Nangong Chengye was overjoyed when he saw this, but immediately became extremely nervous.
