Hearing this voice, many people couldn't help but be taken aback and look over.
It was a woman's voice, very pleasant to the ears.
Obviously, the first person to speak up for Qin Xiao and speak up for Qin Xiao was a woman.
First, Li Sheng's daughter, Jin Yuanyuan, cried for Qin Xiao and desperately wanted to protect Qin Xiao.
Moreover, the fact that a woman had spoken up for Qin Xiao caused many people to be astonished.
Why was he, Qin Xiao, so popular with women?
Who was it this time?
Everyone's eyes immediately looked over, and their gazes quickly landed on a figure.
The person who spoke up for Qin Xiao was none other than Gu Lingyue, the Young Palace Master of the Heavenly Law Dao Palace's Water Palace.
As the Young Palace Master of the Heavenly Law Dao Palace's Water Palace, Gu Lingyue's status naturally went without saying.
Such a woman of status actually stood up for Qin Xiao at this time. This was really a very strange thing.
After all, Gu Lingyue was also a member of the Heavenly Law Dao Palace. The people of the other four palaces of the Heavenly Law Dao Palace were all here, and all of them were furious and wanted to kill Qin Xiao as soon as possible.
Especially Huoshen, who was the leader of the six regions' gathering this time.
But Gu Lingyue, who was also a member of the Heavenly Law Dao Palace, stood up for Qin Xiao. Wasn't this standing on the opposite side of the Heavenly Law Dao Palace?
Wasn't this fighting against one's own people?
Naturally, there were some people who couldn't understand what was going on, and they had a lot of guesses.
Many people admired Qin Xiao and were also jealous of Qin Xiao.
"Gu Lingyue!"
Seeing that Gu Lingyue dared to speak up for Qin Xiao, Huoshen was the most upset at this time.
He had already secretly clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, his heart filled with resentment.
His eyes were spewing out thick flames of anger.
Abominable, truly abominable.
He originally thought that Gu Lingyue might still have feelings for Qin Xiao and was still thinking about their old relationship.
In fact, it was very likely that she still had feelings for Qin Xiao in her heart.
It wasn't too bad before, and she didn't express it too clearly, but this already made Huoshen very unhappy.
But this time, she actually directly expressed it. How could he, Huoshen, tolerate it?
Therefore, Huoshen was also furious, and he stared at Gu Lingyue in a rage, as if he wanted to eat her.
His appearance was indeed very unsightly.
"Gu Lingyue, as a member of the Heavenly Law Dao Palace, is to say this at this time..
"That's right, Gu Lingyue. What exactly is your relationship with this Qin Xiao kid? Why are you shielding him like this? "
"He killed the people of the six regions. This is an indisputable fact, something that many people witnessed with their own eyes. Even he can't deny it, so what right do you, Gu Lingyue, have to exonerate him?"
"Hmph, could it be that you, Gu Lingyue, have also long become a demon? Otherwise, I really can't think of why you, Gu Lingyue, would speak up for Qin Xiao at this time. Covering up for a murderer, are you in cahoots with him? "
"Gu Lingyue, you should take back what you just said. We reckon that you just said the wrong thing out of a moment of kindness. Otherwise, hmph, I'm afraid we'll have to think about this matter carefully. "
Gu Lingyue frowned coldly and looked at the people who were speaking. "I have nothing to do with Qin Xiao.
As the Young Palace Lord of the Heavenly Law Dao Palace's Water Palace, who dares to say that I'm a demon? Why don't you stand up and let us have a good talk?
"You've all opened your mouths and framed me like this. Is this what a man should do?
"What? You're allowed to speak, but I, Gu Lingyue, can't stand up and say a word?
"If you think I'm wrong, then you can refute me with convincing words. Why do you have to open your mouths and accuse others? Are you used to accusing others?"
"Hmph, then tell us, what did we say wrong?"
"That's right. If you have the ability, then show us the evidence. If you can't, then shut up and don't get in the way of us killing people."
"Gu Lingyue, although you're the Young Palace Lord of the Heavenly Law Dao Palace's Water Palace, it doesn't mean that you're necessarily a good person. Don't think too highly of yourself."
Gu Lingyue's words had clearly provoked a wave of anger.
Therefore, many voices of objection sounded, not giving Gu Lingyue much face at all.
In front of such angry people, there were indeed many people who could not remain calm and could not speak properly.
Gu Lingyue looked at the people who were shouting very fiercely and said, "Alright, since that's the case, then let me ask you. I just saw a lone Sword Cultivator Saint die. Was he killed by you guys? "
"Ridiculous, this is simply ridiculous. Gu Lingyue, when did you learn to slander others?"
"Hmph, Gu Lingyue, what do you mean by that? Are you trying to forcibly accuse us of crimes? Do you have the qualifications to do so? "
"Gu Lingyue, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. When did we kill a sword cultivator saint? How could we possibly kill someone from the six realms? "
Gu Lingyue continued, "Alright, since you all say you didn't kill him, then it's none of your business."
"That's fine. Prove your innocence. This request isn't too much, is it?"
"As long as you can prove that you didn't kill him and that you're innocent, then I'll believe that you really didn't kill him."
"If you can't prove your innocence, then I'm very sorry, but I'll have to believe that you killed him."
"Oh right, when you prove your innocence, don't drag the people close to you out to testify for you. They don't have the right to testify. After all, they might help you exonerate you and lie."
"Come, prove your innocence one by one."
"You —"
The men were truly choked by Gu Lingyue's words.
If that was the case, then how were they supposed to prove their innocence?
They'd been with their companions the entire time and hadn't gone anywhere else. It was even more impossible for a murder to have occurred.
But —
How were they supposed to prove their innocence?
If their companions couldn't testify, then how were they supposed to do so?
Wasn't that preposterous?
One of the men snorted angrily and said, "Preposterous, this is the greatest preposterous thing in the world. How could such a thing happen?"
"If you randomly accuse someone of something like this, then wouldn't everyone be guilty?"
Gu Lingyue immediately retorted, "Didn't you randomly accuse Qin Xiao of something like this? Now that I'm accusing you of something, you're unhappy? "
"There are so many of you. Didn't you all firmly believe that Qin Xiao was the murderer, and that as long as he couldn't prove his innocence, then he was guilty?"
"Now that I casually accuse him of something, you can't prove your innocence either, can you?"
"I just want to use this as an example to tell you that if you can't prove your innocence, then you're definitely guilty."
"In other words, how are you going to prove that everyone was killed by Qin Xiao?"
"Yes, you'll say that everyone has a witness."
"But everyone only has one witness. In other words, everyone's words were said by one person and determined by one person. There are no other witnesses to prove this matter, right? "
"According to your logic, the testimony of one person isn't enough to be believed, is it?"
A gloomy voice sounded, "Gu Lingyue, you're deliberately trying to exonerate Qin Xiao. What are you trying to do?"
"What's the relationship between me and this Qin Xiao? Is it worth it for you to protect him like this? Even at the expense of the dignity of your Heavenly Laws Dao Palace? "
"Your Heavenly Laws Dao Palace also has people who died at the hands of Qin Xiao. Are you going to side with an outsider like this? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by the world? "
"We have six witnesses, enough to prove that Qin Xiao is a murderer. The assumption you made just now, without even a single witness, is completely absurd. "
"So your words, Gu Lingyue, have no logic to speak of."
"You're standing up for Qin Xiao, but I think you're just doing it out of selfishness."
Gu Lingyue shook her head, "I don't have any selfishness. I'm not familiar with Qin Xiao and have no relationship with him."
"I'm only saying this because I don't want you to kill the wrong person."
"In the face of a great disaster, we of the six regions should be united against the outside world, and not kill each other."
"Moreover, I've also encountered some situations, and I've always felt that impersonators do exist."
"I'm just saying that I have no way to prove that impersonators do exist. Of course, even if I could prove it myself, I don't think you'd believe my words alone. "
"So, I just want to urge everyone to restrain themselves and calm down. Don't act impulsively, lest you fall into the trap of others."
Hmph.
Suddenly, a mocking voice rang out.
"Oh my, Gu Lingyue, your words are very righteous, aren't they? But why do I feel like you're putting on a sanctimonious air?"
"You dare say you don't have any selfishness? Others may not know, but I know that there is a lot of concern between you and Qin Xiao. "
"On your path of reincarnation, you and Qin Xiao are very lovey-dovey in this life. You even had a wedding ceremony, didn't you?"
"I think you're deliberately standing up for Qin Xiao because of old ties, aren't you?"
"You're Huoshen's fiancée. This is something everyone knows. Don't you feel ashamed to say this in front of Huoshen? "
The leader of the Golden Palace of the Heavenly Laws Dao Palace said, as if he were standing up for Huoshen.
Huoshen's expression was already very ugly, and now it was even uglier.
Huoshen glared coldly at the leader of the Golden Palace. His words seemed to be standing up for Huoshen.
However, if he were to say it in front of so many people, wouldn't it be a disgrace to his reputation as the Fire God?
His fiancée was standing up for his old flame in front of him? How could he, the Fire God, show his face now?
Therefore, how could the Fire God not be angry?
His expression darkened.
Gu Lingyue's expression was also ugly, and she was very angry.
She glared fiercely at the leader of the Golden Palace and said coldly, "It's just a matter of the past on the path of reincarnation. It's long gone from my memory."
"I've already said what needs to be said. If you insist on saying this, that's your business."
"Hmph, then don't say anything. Shut up."
"That's right, what's there to say? Everyone, don't just stand there. Let's do it. "
"Yes, let's kill Qin Xiao first."
Seeing that Gu Lingyue stood up for him, Qin Xiao was touched.
It seemed that Gu Lingyue had not completely forgotten about him. Unlike what she had shown before, she did not completely ignore him.
It was just that she had her own difficulties, and she had no choice but to do this.
If this was the case, then no matter what, he must break through all obstacles and bring Gu Lingyue back to his side.
But — —
Alas, it would be difficult for him to turn the situation around.
