To prove her words, Tang Xinrong handed the porcelain bottle containing the firefly powder and Yan Li's seal to Qiu Xiangrong. After seeing them, Qiu Xiangrong said regretfully, "How could such a handsome young man be a demon spy, alas …" Then, she handed them to Zhu Rong.
After the leaders read them, they didn't ask any more questions. The big tent was filled with a murderous atmosphere.
"Take him down!" Tang Xinrong waved her hand. She didn't even bother to do it herself.
The disciples of the Dao Court responded loudly.
"Wait." Yan Li raised his hand slowly to stop the people rushing toward him.
"Yan Li, if you dare to resist, we will kill you on the spot. Even the Court Of Sword can't say anything!"
"That's right. I advise you to obediently surrender!"
Yan Li turned a deaf ear to them. He smiled and said to Zhou Wenlong, "Lord Zhou, how can you prove that the firefly powder wasn't applied in advance?"
Zhou Wenlong said calmly, "I don't need to prove anything to a traitor who betrayed the human race!"
Yan Li said, "According to this argument, Brother Xue Tianya is also related to the pattern. Does it mean that Brother Xue is also a demon spy?"
"Yan Li, what nonsense are you talking about? How could Brother Xue be a demon spy!"
"How dare he frame Brother Xue! Kill him!"
The disciples of the Dao Court swarmed up.
Smart people understood immediately. Gu Changming and Wei Shu looked at each other and nodded, then winked at the other disciples. Shen Wanzhou and Yu Qiuyu were the first to rush up. The former did it because he owed Yan Li a favor, while the latter believed that Yan Li wasn't a demon spy. Because this was the judgment of Thirteen Characters on Yan Li.
Ye Xiaolang saw with his own eyes how Yan Li led his subordinates to fight against the Demon Tribe to the death, so he didn't believe this judgment at all. He rushed up after a breath's delay. "Who dares to move? My sword is blind!"
The others quickly took their positions.
Gu Changming cupped his hands to Tang Xinrong, "Chief Tang, please give Brother Yan a chance to prove himself."
Zhou Wenlong seemed to have thought of something. His expression changed drastically as he said, "How else can we prove it? Yan Li is the spy. If your Sword Court dares to harbor a spy, aren't you afraid of being attacked by the Eight Great Sects?"
"Shut up!" Liumu Bingjian's cold eyes flashed, "It's none of your business!"
Zhou Wenlong kept quiet out of fear.
Tang Xinrong swept a glance over them. Good fella, most of them were the chief disciples of the various lineages of the Sword Court. If things went wrong, it might cause the entire Celestial World to be thrown into turmoil. He could not bear this responsibility. He frowned and said, "Yan Li, this is your last chance!"
Yan Li cupped his hands towards his senior brothers and asked Xue Tian Ya, "Brother Xue, can I borrow your token for a moment?"
"Xinrong," Xue Tianya took out his card and threw it.
Yan Li caught it and said to the leaders who had Firefly Powder on their eyelids, "Seniors, please take a look. Is there any Firefly Powder on Brother Xue's card?"
They took a closer look and shook their heads, "No."
"That's strange," Yan Li smiled and said, "Lord Zhou said that all the pairs of cards are the same, and he smeared firefly powder on the drawings. Why is there firefly powder on my pair of cards, but Brother Xue, the keeper of the drawings, doesn't?"
Everyone turned to look at Zhou Wenlong.
Zhou Wenlong's face was pale, he said, "It must have been absorbed by your card …"
"Then let me ask Lord Zhou, when did you put Firefly Powder on the card?" Yan Li asked.
"When I came …" Zhou Wenlong gritted his teeth.
Yan Li smiled, "It's been half a month since you entered the city. Do you know that once Firefly Powder leaves the special container, it only lasts for seven days?"
"Nonsense, you …" Zhou Wenlong's face became even uglier.
Yan Li smiled, "Bu Luo City's Queen is an old friend of mine. Firefly Powder was the first treasure she gave me. I know its properties very well. If you don't believe me, you can test it on the spot."
"No need, Dragon Elephant Mountain has frequent dealings with Bu Luo City, so I know more about it. I can prove that Firefly Powder only lasts for seven days, "Dragon Elephant Mountain's leader, Liang Youyu, said.
Yan Li cupped his fists at Liang Youyu, then said to Zhou Wenlong, "Lord Zhou, your plan had a fatal flaw from the start." He shrugged, "I believe that if anyone here wanted to be a thief, they wouldn't hang their card on their waist, afraid that others wouldn't know their identity. If there really is such an idiot, I suggest that they stop cultivating because they might become the first cultivator to die of stupidity in the history of cultivation. "
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but smile. Wasn't this the same logic?
"So, your card was tampered with from the start." Gu Caiwei's beautiful eyes were smiling, "And the person who framed you was this Lord Zhou. Oh, little b * tch, look at how annoying you are. Even Lord Zhou, whom you've never met, thinks you're an eyesore and wants to get rid of you. If you have enough self-awareness, quickly dig a hole and bury yourself. "
"No, how could that be? I'm such a handsome young master that everyone loves. Everyone loves me, how could they hate me?" The corner of Yan Li's mouth curled up slightly, "I think Lord Zhou must have his own difficulties."
"I, I …" Zhou Wenlong gasped for breath and retreated step by step. Suddenly, with a muffled sound, his heart was pierced by a slender jade hand, and a dark red heart appeared in front of everyone.
"Sure enough, he has been transformed into a Devil."
Qiu Xiangrong grabbed the dark red heart and walked to the middle of the crowd as if nothing had happened. She said with a straight face, "Just now, I had some doubts, so I deliberately used the Charm Technique on him. His body can still react. It's so filthy that I want to vomit."
"Give it back to me … give it back to me …" Zhou Wenlong's pupils rapidly contracted, and all the wrinkles on his old face were wrinkled and trembling. "I … I just … want to live …" His old body suddenly fell to the ground.
"Lord Qiu," Liumu Bingjian was very dissatisfied, "if you kill him, how can we interrogate him for information?"
Qiu Xiangrong smiled and said, "Miss Bingjian, he is just a human who has been transformed into a Devil, so it's impossible for him to know too much. So if he knows anything, you can just ask Yan Li. Little Brother Yan Li, don't you think so? "
Yan Li said, "I dare not say everything."
Duan Yihong said blankly, "Junior Brother Yan, what on earth is going on? I'm confused."
Yan Li said, "You all know that Li Xueyi and I have a grudge. This time, she not only wants to seize Red Rock City, but also wants to frame me and make me lose my foothold in the Immortal Realm. I guess she most likely wants me to escape to the Devil Realm, so she can slowly torture me to achieve her goal of revenge. "
"Yan Li, you'd better tell us the specifics of what happened," Liang Youyu said.
Yan Li didn't want to brush him off, so he said, "Elder Liang, it's like this …"
Boom!
A huge explosion suddenly occurred outside the tent, interrupting Yan Li's words.
