If only Dongfang Fei Bai had this potion and he said that he found it in the Death Zone, some people might think that it was just an excuse.
However, Chen Hongyuan also had this potion, and it just so happened that both of them came back alive from the Death Zone, so it was possible that they found it in the Death Zone.
However, this didn't mean that no one questioned it.
Although this matter had nothing to do with the Jiang Family, Jiang Wuya was the first to question, "When you were in the Death Zone, only the two of you were together. You said that you found it in the Death Zone, but we can't prove it, so it doesn't seem very convincing."
"That's right, who knows if you found it in the Death Zone or not. Originally, it wasn't in the Death Zone, but now you say that you found it in the Death Zone. In any case, only the two of you were in the Death Zone, so you can say whatever you want!" Situ Yongkang said.
Just now, he was still a bit suspicious, but after Jiang Wuya's reminder, he really didn't believe that they found it in the Death Zone.
"Everyone, I think you might have made a mistake. First, he asked me where I got it from, and whether I wanted to or not was my own business.
I didn't want to answer, and I didn't do anything wrong. It was just that the Situ Family said that this thing belonged to their enemy, so I told you what I know out of benevolence.
Now that I've told you where this potion came from, whether you believe it or not is your own business. What does it have to do with me?
If this potion really belongs to your enemy, then why do I still want to ask you? Why is this thing in the Death Zone? Are you lying, or are Brother Hongyuan and I both lying? "Dongfang Fei Bai said confidently.
"This …" It had to be said that Dongfang Fei Bai's method of putting the blame on others was not bad. After hearing what he said, everyone really didn't know what to say.
"Moreover, even if this potion really belongs to this young master Situ's enemy, Brother Hongyuan and I are not his enemies. What right do you have to treat us like enemies?
The Situ Family is one of the Three Great Families, and they are respected by everyone. Is that why they can interrogate anyone they want as a criminal? "Dongfang Fei Bai seemed to be getting more and more excited as he spoke, and he didn't wait for anyone to speak before continuing.
However, Dongfang Fei Bai's words caused the Situ Family to feel both angry and embarrassed. After all, Dongfang Fei Bai's words weren't unreasonable.
Especially since this wasn't the Situ Clan's territory. There were other clans here as well. No matter how arrogant they were, they couldn't do anything too outrageous in the Chen Clan's territory.
"Nonsense, when did I interrogate you like a criminal?" Situ Yongkang said angrily with a flushed face.
This fellow actually dared to slander the Situ Clan. If he were to continue speaking like this, wouldn't the Situ Clan become the target of public criticism?
"If you don't treat me as a criminal of the Situ Clan, then what do you mean by this? Who said, 'If you don't tell me the source of the potion, I won't let you go'? Wasn't it you? "Dongfang Fei Bai questioned the Situ Clan loudly.
"You …" Situ Yongkang was furious, but he didn't know how to refute.
"Enough, this matter ends here!" Si Tuxiong felt that he was too ashamed to stay any longer, so he immediately left.
"Hmph!" Situ Yongkang snorted coldly, but he had no choice but to leave with his father.
He knew that with so many family heads present, if his father didn't make the decision, he wouldn't be able to get Dongfang Fei Bai to tell him more about the potion.
However, he was sure that the potion on that fellow was definitely the same potion used by his enemies.
When he thought of this, even Chen Hongyuan became suspicious.
"Father, they're definitely lying!" Situ Yongkang said to Situ Xiong.
"I know!" Situ Xiong nodded.
"Then father, why do you still want to leave?" Situ Yongkang asked curiously.
"Do you think that if we continue to be in a stalemate, they will tell us the truth? That will only make us more embarrassed. Don't you think that we've already embarrassed ourselves enough? In the future, think carefully before you do anything! "Situ Xiong reprimanded.
He believed in his son's talent.
However, he was very dissatisfied with his son's way of doing things. Perhaps it was because he was too young, or perhaps he had spoiled him too much.
He had made him think that the world would grant him everything he wanted with just a word.
Although the Situ Family was one of the three great families, the other families couldn't be manipulated by them. They couldn't do whatever they wanted.
He hadn't realized that the kid from the Dongfang Family was actually this cunning.
Firstly, he had occupied the moral high ground, and if they were to continue arguing with him, it would only ruin the reputation of the Situ Clan. It would make these people feel that the Situ Clan was a clan that used their power to bully others, which wasn't a good thing.
If the Situ Family wanted to become the number one or even the most important family among the Nine Great Families, they definitely couldn't ruin the reputation of the Nine Great Families.
Otherwise, even if they were the strongest, the other families would continue to ostracize or even rebel against the Situ Family. This wasn't the result that the Situ Family wanted.
"But what about those enemies? That Dongfang Fei Bai must be related to them. Maybe even that Chen Hongyuan is in cahoots with them! "Situ Yongkang said unwillingly.
"Therefore, it's best not to be too impulsive before you're certain. What did you get now? You didn't get any useful information! Also, didn't you come to find Chen Xinran? Why are you fighting with that kid from the Dongfang Family? "Situ Xiong said.
"Humph! The Chen Family is really arrogant. I came to see that woman today, but she didn't give me any face and didn't even want to see me. The most infuriating thing is that this Dongfang Fei Bai came and immediately asked him to go up the mountain! "Situ Yongkang felt that he had really lost face today.
Originally, with his identity, it was easy for him to meet a member of the Chen Family. Even meeting the patriarch of the Chen Family wasn't that difficult. He didn't expect that meeting a woman would cause him to lose face.
"Humph! The Chen Family is really looking down on our Situ Family more and more! "Situ Xiong said coldly.
"Not only the Chen Family, even the Dongfang Family doesn't put our Situ Family in their eyes. Did you see what that bastard Dongfang Fei Bai said just now? It really pissed me off!"
"Perhaps they think that after a trip to the Death Zone, they can really be on equal footing with our three great families!" Situ Xiong said with a face full of sarcasm.
