Huang Ding's words were exactly what everyone was thinking.
Not only the others, but even Lu An looked at Su Keming. He wanted to know if Su Keming was the one who did it, so that he would not wrongly accuse a good person.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Su Keming's face turned even colder. He said to everyone coldly, "Since when can you convict someone with just a few words?!"
"It's not a conviction," Huang Ding said in a deep voice. "It's just that this is a serious matter. We have to get to the bottom of it, just like what Sect Leader Wang said just now."
Su Keming looked at Huang Ding coldly and said directly, "This was not done by Guang You Sect, and I did not do such a thing! That's all I can say. If you want to suspect me, show me the evidence. Don't ask me to show you the evidence! "
Everyone frowned. Su Keming's words were reasonable, but no one would be fooled by such a reason. Su Keming could only blame himself for doing too many bad things to the Ice Fire Union. However, if Su Keming insisted that he did not do it, no one could do anything to him.
Su Keming did have the confidence to say this, not because he did not do it, but because he was sure that he did it cleanly and did not leave any traces. He even took into account that the Rank Nine Crocodile King would leave traces on the plains. Therefore, before entering the plains, the three of them worked together to chase the Rank Nine Crocodile King to the designated location and let the Rank Nine Crocodile King attack Lu An from the south, which was the direction where Li Tang and Lu An were connected.
That was right. This was done by Su Keming.
Sure enough, someone quickly asked, "Sect Leader Su, where did you lose the Crocodile King?"
"I lost it on the Lingyi Lake," Su Keming answered immediately. Without hesitation, he asked, "Any other questions?"
Everyone frowned. If they lost it on the lake, it would be useless no matter how they searched the scene. After all, Su Keming could say that the escape route of the Rank Nine Crocodile King had nothing to do with him, even if it was the same Crocodile King.
However, Mo Ce frowned even more and asked, "What about the battle and pursuit route on the Lingyi Lake? Sect Leader Su shouldn't have forgotten this, right? There are a total of three people in this operation. Why don't we question all three of them individually? If we can match them and there are no mistakes, Sect Master Su's suspicion will naturally be cleared. "
Everyone nodded in agreement. That was indeed the case. If it was Su Ke's doing, the three of them would have chased the King Crocodile all the way to the edge of the Lingyi Lake. This was not a small journey, and it was difficult to make up a story. It was even more difficult for the three of them to maintain the same story without revealing any flaws.
However, Su Keming sneered and said, "I suggest you don't waste your energy. We were fighting the King Crocodile in the same spot. Not long after, the King Crocodile escaped. The King Crocodile was too fast. We couldn't catch up with it. We only chased after it for a short distance. "
"…"
Everyone frowned when they heard this. Only a short distance?
Not to mention whether or not Su Ke was the one who ordered this, just this attitude alone was enough to make people very unhappy. The other battlefields were all fighting with their lives on the line, but Su Keming only chased for a short while before giving up?
Immediately, everyone's faces were filled with dissatisfaction and anger. However, Su Keming did not care. Compared to other matters, he cared more about his own life, which was Lu An's life. He had to kill Lu An before he became a level 9 Heavenly Master. Otherwise, he would be the one to die. For this, he was willing to do anything.
"Are there any other questions?" Su Keming said coldly, "If there are no more questions, I will ask my questions."
Everyone was stunned. Huang Ding frowned and said, "What questions do you have?"
"Very simple. I have already answered everyone's questions. I also have things that I don't understand." Su Keming turned to look at Lu An and said coldly, "Chief Lu said that he was attacked by a level 9 Mythical Beast. I would like to know how Chief Lu survived? Or is this level 9 King Crocodile completely fabricated and maliciously slandered the reputation of our Guang You Sect? "
Everyone's hearts tightened. Indeed, this was a question that they had just thought of. It was impossible for Lu An to survive after encountering a level 9 King Crocodile … Could it be that the young master of the Fu Clan was here to save him again?
Wasn't it too much of a coincidence that it happened again and again?
Lu An did not answer directly. Instead, he said indifferently, "I have no comment on how I survived. However, the corpse is right in front of my defensive line. If anyone has any doubts, you can go and verify it."
Once this was said, everyone's body shook again!
Dead?
The level 9 King Crocodile was dead?!
Without a doubt, it was impossible for Lu An to have such strength. This meant that someone had helped Lu An to kill this level 9 King Crocodile. There were too many experts that were related to Lu An. Just the human race alone had two women. Furthermore, he was also related to the Heavenly Tiger Race.
Hearing Lu An's answer, Su Keming's brows tightened. At this point, there was nothing much to say. No one had any evidence. It would be futile to continue arguing.
After a long period of silence, Huang Ding finally took a deep breath and said to everyone, "If there's nothing else, let's adjourn. Alliance Head Lu, we will definitely investigate your matter and give you an explanation."
Lu An nodded slightly and said, "Thank you, Sect Head Huang."
The meeting did not continue. Everyone left one after another. There was no doubt that this battle was a complete victory. Everyone was very happy. However, there was a layer of haze on top of their happiness.

Eight Ancient Continent, Ice Fire Union.
In the underground space, Lu An had just returned from the meeting. He told the seven women everything that had happened in the meeting. Not only the seven women, but Yue Rong was also there. Previously, after Yue Rong killed the level 9 King Crocodile, Lu An and the seven women had already expressed their gratitude to her. However, Yue Rong had protected everyone for so long. To be honest, the Lu Clan owed her too much.
Hearing Lu An's words, the seven women's faces became solemn, especially Liu Yi. After thinking for a while, she said, "I'm sure it was Su Ke Ming. There's no mistake."
Lu An was startled. The other women were the same. He asked, "Why?"
"Because he didn't show any weakness to you." Liu Yi looked at Lu An and said seriously, "Perhaps in the many possibilities that Su Ke Ming had set for himself, if you didn't die and were questioned, he would show anger, dominance, or indifference. But in fact, if he didn't do it, he would show anxiety and weakness. Because he would be worried that the entire Union would change their attitude toward him. After all, he had learned a lesson from the Fire Sect. At the same time, he would be worried that Fu Yu would take action. "
"To put it simply, if he didn't do it, it should be a very sudden news to him. He shouldn't be mentally prepared." Liu Yi continued, "You just said that he didn't show any surprise. Instead, he was very indifferent. This doesn't make sense and doesn't match his personality. It seems that he has a very big misconception of himself. "
Lu An and the seven women nodded slightly when they heard this. However, even if they thought that Liu Yi's words made sense, it was useless. Lu An said, "But we don't have any evidence. The other two people who acted with Su Ke Ming are Guang You Sect's Liu Ju and Open Mountain Sect's Fang Xuan. They are in the same camp."
Liu Yi frowned slightly when she heard this. She said softly, "Fang Xuan …"
Seeing that Liu Yi was deep in thought, Lu An was startled and asked, "What's wrong with her?"
"I don't have much information about her, nor have I deliberately collected it." Liu Yi looked at Lu An and said seriously, "But believe me, women are naturally more sensitive than men. They care about more things and more things will happen. Many men can focus on cultivation and pursue power without any distractions, but it's very difficult for women. Especially for a Level Nine Heavenly Master, she definitely has a lot of things and weaknesses that we don't know. Su Ke Ming is carrying out such an important mission, but he actually asked a woman to help him. This is a very big problem in itself. "
Lu An was shocked when he heard this. He asked, "You want to do something to Fang Xuan?"
"Husband, don't worry. I won't maliciously slander her or deliberately cause trouble for her." Liu Yi said seriously, "But this matter has to be clarified. After all, it's related to the safety of the family and the safety of the entire Ice Fire Union. We can't let it go so easily. Husband, leave it to me."
Lu An took a deep breath and nodded heavily when he heard this. This matter indeed had to be clarified. Liu Yi understood him and had a sense of propriety, which made him feel reassured.
