Chapter 970: Malicious Slander
"Forefather, I won't be sitting," Zhongli Huatian said in a low voice.
Zhongli Huatian said in a low voice. After that, he looked at Ning Qi and said, "Your Excellency seems to have finished eating. Can you give up this table?"
"Today is strange. So many people have come to fight for a seat."
Ning Qi smiled and did not answer the question.
Tuoba Dong and the other three's expressions changed slightly. A trace of anger flashed in their eyes. They could clearly feel the mockery in Ning Qi's words.
"Huatian, there's no need. Sit with this little brother."
Scholar Heaven and Earth smiled faintly.
"Yes, Forefather."
Zhongli Huatian nodded and respectfully stood behind Scholar Heaven and Earth.
There was no lack of Dou Zongs and Dou Zuns among the diners on the second floor. When they saw this scene, they already knew that Scholar Heaven and Earth was not as young as he looked.
"This person's aura is similar to ours. It seems that he has also comprehended the power of a law."
Tuoba Dong secretly transmitted his voice.
"Indeed. Are they familiar with each other?"
"From the looks of it, they don't know each other. It's just that the brat's aura concealing technique is too mysterious. The other party did not see that he possesses the power of a law."
At this moment, Ding Ling hurriedly walked up. She came directly to Tuoba Dong's table and whispered a few words. Tuoba Dong and the other three's expressions immediately changed. Their eagle-like eyes swept toward Ning Qi and Scholar Heaven and Earth.
"The 'Earth Searching Pill' disappeared as soon as these two arrived at the Misty Cloud Restaurant. They are the most suspicious."
"We are not a match for that fellow. We will be at a disadvantage if we fight. Let's wait for Master to arrive before making a further plan."
"At least try it out?"
"Let's go together."
Tuoba Dong and the other three stood up and walked toward Ning Qi's table. Curiosity flashed in everyone's eyes when they saw this. Was there going to be another good show to watch?
"Halt, intruder."
Zhongli Huatian moved and blocked in front of Tuoba Dong and the other three.
Ever since Scholar Heaven and Earth came out of seclusion, he used the power of a law to repair his Dantian. Now, Zhongli Huatian's cultivation had recovered to the peak of a Dou Zun. He was only half a step away from the Dou Sheng realm.
Tuoba Dong glanced at Zhongli Huatian indifferently. Zhongli Huatian immediately felt a huge force coming at him. He could not help but take a few steps back.
A look of shock appeared on his face. He had only felt this kind of aura from his own ancestor! Could it be that these four people were at the same level as their Patriarch?
"You are?"
The Scholar of Heaven and Earth's expression changed slightly. He stood up in surprise and looked at Tuoba Dong and the other three.
Ding Ling stared at him and then looked at Ning Qi. The token of love that her beloved had given her had been stolen. Ding Ling was on the verge of a mental breakdown.
Tuoba Dong frowned and glanced at Ning Qi. In the end, his gaze landed on the Scholar of Heaven and Earth. His expression changed slightly. "You're the Scholar of Heaven and Earth from the Pavilion of Heaven and Earth?"
This was Tuoba Dong's guess. When he came to Dongxuan, he had asked Hou Jin for information about this place. If there was anyone here who had comprehended the power of laws, it would be the Heaven and Earth Pavilion's Scholar of Heaven and Earth. The Primordial Dragon Emperor and the others had not reached this level yet.
"You all actually recognize me?"
The Scholar of Heaven and Earth was a little surprised.
Apart from looking for clues about Ning Qi, he had come to the Cloud Mist Tower this time to take a look at the long-rumored Book of Life and Death. He did not expect to meet four experts who seemed to have the same level of cultivation as him. Were they from a dragon, a demon, the Nine Palaces and Eight Schools, or the Four Great Clans?
"The Cloud Mist Tower lost something. Did the two of you take it?"
Tuoba Dong went straight to the point.
"The Cloud Mist Tower lost something? Could it be … "
A look of shock suddenly flashed in the eyes of the diners on the second floor. Someone quietly left the Cloud Mist Tower and ran in the direction of the palace. This person was one of the tens of thousands of scouts from the Nine States Empire. Ding Ling seemed to recognize him. Seeing him leave, she did not move at all. She only stared at Ning Qi and the Scholar of Heaven and Earth.
"Why are you looking for us when you lost something? Why would the Patriarch and I steal something from the Cloud Mist Tower? "
Zhongli Huatian thought that the two of them were referring to them. A look of anger flashed in his eyes.
"You don't have the right to speak here. Brother, if you've stolen the item that Misty Cloud Tower lost, please return it. In a few days, our Masters will arrive here, so we don't want to embarrass everyone."
Tuoba Dong looked at Ning Qi and said plainly.
Zhongli Huatian was slightly startled. He glanced at Ning Qi in disbelief. The other party placed this person on the same level as his own Patriarch?
"They have masters. Could it be that they are experts in the Battle Dan Realm?"
A look of fear flashed in the eyes of the Scholar of Heaven and Earth. Then, he shook his head with a smile and said, "I just arrived at the Cloud Mist Tower. If something is lost, it is naturally not me. You have found the wrong person. Perhaps this little brother can answer your question?"
The Scholar of Heaven and Earth looked at Ning Qi meaningfully.
At the same time, an undetectable look of surprise flashed in his eyes. From the eyes and expressions of Tuoba Dong and the other three, it could be seen that they were quite afraid of this person. Even he had misjudged him. This meant that the other party's cultivation was probably not weaker than his!
As expected, after hearing the Scholar of Heaven and Earth's words, the four of them looked at Ning Qi coldly. "Although your cultivation is stronger than ours, I'm afraid that there is a limit. If you really took something from the Cloud Mist Tower, please hand it over. Its owner is very strong, even stronger than our masters. If we really fall out, you won't be able to keep your life even if you flee to the ends of the earth."
The Scholar of Heaven and Earth stood at the side with a smile. However, only he knew the shock in his heart. He had already confirmed that these four people were from those factions. Behind them, there was more than just a Battle Dan existence!
"What did the Cloud Mist Tower lose to make them so nervous? What is their relationship with the Cloud Mist Tower? Could it be … the Book of Life and Death? "
Thinking about this, the Scholar of Heaven and Earth couldn't help but look at Ning Qi. He wanted to see something from Ning Qi's expression. What was disappointing was that other than a faint smile on Ning Qi's face, there was no sign of guilt or fear.
"I've been sitting here all this time and haven't moved at all. Why do you think that I stole something from the Cloud Mist Tower?"
Ning Qi smiled and said.
"There is no need to pretend between us. If it was me, I would have countless ways to steal something right under your nose."
Tuoba Xi's hand was frozen by Ning Qi earlier, so he was still a little uncomfortable. He couldn't help but frown.
"Then, why can't the four of you be the ones who stole it?"
Ning Qi said with a smile.
The expressions of Tuoba Dong and the other three instantly changed.
Ding Ling suddenly took two steps back and stared at them. Ning Qi's words reminded Ding Ling that the value of the item was something that even an ordinary Initial Stage Dou Dan expert coveted. Would these four people be greedy and steal the Ground Searching Pill? Then, would the thief call the thief thief?
"How could we steal Brother Wenren's item? Don't slander us!"
Tuoba Xi said angrily.
"Right now, you are the ones slandering us, not me. I am only suggesting this possibility. If you think that I took it, then show me the evidence."
