"Hmph, a life for a life, of course. But two of our Xin Huo Clan's people died, how can killing Zhang Xin be enough? Two of our people died, your Zhang Clan will have to pay at least double the price. "
"That's right, how can two hundred thousand chaos source stones be enough? Why don't you send a few more people to pay with their lives, or at least five hundred thousand chaos source stones? "
"Pay? You want to settle this with just one life and two hundred thousand chaos source stones? How can there be such an easy thing in this world? Why don't you ask our Xin Huo Clan's people if they agree? "
"I don't agree. Brothers, who agrees?"
"No!!!"
As soon as the Zhang Clan Head finished his words, the Xin Huo Clan's people were all furious and disagreed, causing the Zhang Clan Head's face to turn even uglier.
His face was pale and his body was trembling slightly. It was obvious that he was having a hard time holding back his anger.
He was the Zhang Clan Head, a third-step Heavenly Venerable great immortal, and he had already shown his utmost sincerity by personally escorting the Zhang Clan's disciples to the Xin Huo Clan to apologize.
Two hundred thousand chaos source stones, it would almost deplete the Zhang Clan's savings.
Such sincerity could be said to be full, but the Xin Huo Clan's people were still dissatisfied. Were they trying to force the Zhang Clan into a dead end?
He had gone through untold hardships to make such achievements and multiply such a huge family. Was it really going to be destroyed this time?
What should he do?
What should he do?
He was already so humble, what else could he do?
"Alright, stop arguing, silence!" Qin Xiao suddenly waved his hand and shouted.
Qin Xiao's prestige was still very strong, and his shout silenced the Xin Huo Clan's people. The reason why they were so confident and arrogant was because Qin Xiao was here.
Otherwise, even if they were given a hundred guts, they wouldn't dare to speak like this in front of a third-step Heavenly Venerable great immortal.
The Zhang Clan Head raised his head and looked at Qin Xiao, his eyes flashing with determination.
"Mr. Zhang, don't be so agitated. I, Qin Xiao, have always been fair and impartial. I won't listen to one side of the story." Qin Xiao said.
Upon hearing Qin Xiao's words, the Xin Huo Clan's people looked at each other, they all had a bad premonition.
On the other hand, Zhang Jiazhu was slightly agitated. He was indeed more worried that Qin Xiao would attack without saying a word.
After all, in this world, there were many times where there was no reasoning. The rules had always been set by the strong. The rules only applied to the weak.
In front of Qin Xiao, he was a weakling.
Therefore, if Qin Xiao really attacked without saying anything, the Zhang family really couldn't stop her. They could only be at her mercy.
But after listening to Qin Xiao's words, it seemed that things were not as bad as he had imagined. This also gave Zhang Jiazhou a glimmer of hope.
In fact, he had always admired Qin Xiao's character. The reason why he personally escorted Zhang Xin here to offer a humble apology was that he wanted to give it a try.
Qin Xiao looked at Zhang Xin who was kneeling there and said, "Stand up first."
Zhang Xin's expression, who had long been pale, slightly changed. She seemed to be very surprised. She looked up at Qin Xiao and hesitated for a long time before slowly standing up.
The Xin Huo Clan's people looked at Qin Xiao with some confusion. Some of them wanted to say something, but they still held back.
"Tell me what happened." Qin Xiao said.
Zhang Xin's face was still expressionless. Her face was as white as a sheet of paper and as cold as ice. This was a face of despair.
She looked at Qin Xiao and said coldly, "What's the point of telling you or not? No matter what I say, it won't change anything. "
"I know that I'm going to die today, so there's nothing more to say. Just do it."
"I'll take responsibility for what I did. I'm the one who killed her. It has nothing to do with others. If you want to kill someone, then kill me. I won't even frown. "
"I hope that you won't implicate the others in this matter. They are innocent."
"Then in your eyes, I, Qin Xiao, am an unreasonable and unreasonable person who only cares about his fists?" Qin Xiao asked. Zhang Xin was stunned and looked at Qin Xiao in a daze.
Honestly speaking, Qin Xiao's reputation in Lin Fu City was very good.
Qin Xiao's character and character were very worthy of respect. Many people praised him and talked about him enthusiastically.
"If I only cared about my fists, do you think I would need to say so much to you? To put it bluntly, if I wanted to kill you, or even destroy your Zhang Clan, it would be a piece of cake. "
"If it weren't for the fact that I don't want to kill innocent people, do you think you would still be standing here and listening to me?"
Zhang Xin's heart shook violently when she heard this. Her eyes suddenly lit up a little, and there was some expression on her face.
That's right. With Young Master Qin Xiao's character, he shouldn't be so unreasonable.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xin also seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw in her despair. She saw a glimmer of hope.
"Lord Qin, it's like this. Today, when I was on my way home, I saw three people flirting with a girl in the market. They were very arrogant."
"I couldn't stand it and went to stop them. However, they claimed to be from the Xin Huo Clan. They said that they were under the banner of Princess Xiao Yu and Lord Qin. They asked me to kowtow to them and admit my mistake."
"And — — They also insulted me. I tried to reason with them, but the three of them didn't want to let me go. They wanted to kill me."
"In the end, I had no choice but to kill them. However, in a moment of carelessness, the two of them were killed. Then — — I was also a little scared, so I hurried back home and confessed to the Clan Master. "
As soon as Zhang Xin's voice fell, the surviving man of the three suddenly jumped out angrily. He pointed at Zhang Xin's nose and shouted, "You're lying, it's a bunch of nonsense. Brother Qin Xiao, don't listen to his nonsense. It's not like what he said.
He wants to clear his name. "
"I'm not lying. Many people saw it. If you don't believe me, you can find someone to testify. And that girl is the victim. If you don't believe me, you can find her. "Zhang Xin said with an incomparably firm tone.
"Find — find — find a witness. You're lying, you're lying." The surviving man, Ba Sha, suddenly stuttered. Obviously, he didn't have enough confidence.
Qin Xiao's sharp gaze suddenly fell on Basha's body. Being stared at by Qin Xiao, Basha was so scared that his entire body trembled. He was quite frightened.
His expression also became a little flustered.
"Tell me the truth. What's the real situation?" Qin Xiao asked.
The Xin Huo clansmen obviously felt that the situation was not quite right. But under Qin Xiao's strong aura, they all kept quiet out of fear and didn't dare to make a sound.
"I — —"
Ba Sha still wanted to quibble, but Qin Xiao shouted again, "This time, before you say anything, you better think carefully. What I want to hear is the truth, the whole truth, without any exaggeration or falsehood. "
"I, Qin Xiao, can slay monsters and demons for the Xin Huo clan. I can kill enemies for the Xin Huo clan. But I will not throw away my dignity for the Xin Huo clan."
"If someone really bullies you, I will disregard everything. But if someone wants to make me, Qin Xiao, bully others, do something unreasonable, then you better think twice before you do it. "
"As a person, be a righteous person. We are men, we cultivators, we should have righteousness in our hearts. "
"If there are people who think that they can use their power to bully others, that they can do whatever they want, that they can be arrogant and despotic, then I can tell these people that they have embarked on an evil path, a path that I despise and despise, a path that will not have a good ending."
"In my hometown, there is a saying, 'If you are poor, you should take care of yourself. If you are rich, you should help the world.' If we apply it here, it means that when you are weak, you should take care of yourself and don't provoke others. When you are strong, you should uphold justice and care for the world. You should not bully the weak and be barbaric. "
"As a person, you should be a righteous person. Cultivators of our generation should focus all of our attention on cultivation, not on pleasure. "
"As the saying goes, if others don't offend me, I won't offend myself. But the premise is that you must not offend others first. If you offend others, then you will die in their hands. Then I will give you two words: You deserve it. "
Qin Xiao's words were sonorous and forceful, not only to Basha alone, but also to everyone in the Xin Huo Clan.
Originally, there were many Xin Huo Clan members who wanted to ask Qin Xiao not to say so much to the Zhang Clan members and just kill them directly.
But after hearing these words, they felt ashamed and did not dare to say anything more.
The originally excited Xiao Dao and Wilde also calmed down. In truth, they were righteous people, and they would never bully or humiliate others.
Before, they were indeed blinded by anger, but now it seemed that the situation was not as simple as Basha said.
They believed in their own clansmen, so they only listened to one side of the story. Now, they finally woke up.
Although Qin Xiao's gaze was calm as he looked at Basha, Basha felt an endless amount of pressure, causing him to become extremely nervous.
"I, I — —"
Basha wanted to say something, but he still found it hard to speak.
Actually, without him saying anything, Qin Xiao already knew in his heart that he had agreed.
"Hmph!"
Qin Xiao suddenly snorted coldly as a trace of anger welled up in him.
When he heard Qin Xiao's snort, Basha was so frightened that his legs went soft and he knelt down involuntarily. He had a guilty conscience.
Qin Xiao said, "Basha, do you know why I didn't say anything when you were so indignant and wanted me to give you orders?"
"That's because I checked their corpses before coming here. There were obvious signs of a fight."
"The three of you are just ordinary Universe-Grades. Based on what you said, the one who killed you was a first-step Heavenly Venerate. Given the strength of the three of you, if that first-step Heavenly Venerate really wanted to kill you, there wouldn't be so many signs of a fight on their bodies. "
"Based on this point, it is enough to infer that the first-step Heavenly Venerate who killed them intentionally went easy on you. This means that the other party did not have the intention to kill you. This is the first suspicious point."
"Secondly, when you told me what happened, even though you spoke with conviction, a lie is still a lie."
"You can deceive others, but you can't deceive me. I can sense that you have a guilty conscience. That's why I didn't believe you from the start. "
"Thirdly, when I asked Zhang Xin, his story was full of confidence and there were no traces of lying. As soon as he finished speaking, you jumped out to refute him angrily. However, the more you refuted, the more it proved that you had no confidence. "
"You panicked and panicked, so you wanted to salvage the situation. But it's precisely because of this that you've completely exposed yourself. "
