Although he didn't directly point it out, it was clear he was referring to Lv Wushuang.
The reason Ding Wei dared to speak to Lv Wushuang like this was because Lv Wushuang had forced him into a corner. Since Lv Wushuang wanted to kill him, he would die if he didn't fight back. He could only throw caution to the wind, so he didn't care about anything else.
His counterattack wasn't without evidence and wasn't purely revenge. He didn't understand why Lv Wushuang wanted to frame him. No matter how he looked at it, Lv Wushuang wanted to make him a scapegoat. Why would he be the scapegoat? It was hard for him not to suspect Lv Wushuang.
Yuan Se slowly sipped her tea, looking like she was enjoying a good cup of tea.
Lv Wushuang was truly enraged. He sneered again and again, "If I wanted to kill Niu Youdao, would I need to waste so much effort?"
Ding Wei didn't back down. "Since Niu Youdao went to investigate the spy in the Limitless Garden, someone naturally couldn't do anything in front of everyone. I'm afraid someone didn't think that Niu Youdao would be so cunning and didn't follow orders. His whereabouts were so obscure that it was difficult to find him! "
He turned to Yuan Se and cupped his hands together. "I ask Honorable Master to investigate!"
Huang Ban and Xuan Yao, who were kneeling on the ground, looked at each other in dismay. After hearing Ding Wei's words, they realized that the entire incident was suspicious. Niu Youdao's actions were too illogical. The two of them also began to suspect Lu Wushuang's intentions.
At the very least, as far as they knew, Ding Wei shouldn't have done anything to the Limitless Garden.
Of course, they didn't know if Ding Wei had arranged for someone else to do something in the dark.
"How dare you!" Lv Wushuang, who had been bitten, shouted and thrust out a palm.
Ding Wei was shocked. At such a close distance, coupled with Lv Wushuang's speed and power, he was caught off guard. He knew that he couldn't block Lv Wushuang's attack. Even if he didn't die, he would be seriously injured.
Yuan Se turned into a phantom and suddenly moved, blocking the attack and waving her sleeves.
Bang! Under the collision of the two forces, a strong gust of wind swept through the pavilion, and the tables and chairs were blown away like withered branches.
Although the powerful attack power had been neutralized by Yuan Se, the remaining power still caused Huang Ban and the others, who were unable to cast any spells, to suffer a lot. The seven people kneeling on the ground were swept out of the pavilion by the overflowing astral wind, smashing into the ground outside and causing the seven people to be confused.
As the astral winds subsided, the entire pavilion creaked as if it had almost been blown apart.
Yuan Se and Lu Wushuang looked at each other. The former was smiling, while the latter's eyes were cold.
"Beauty Lu, you attacked my disciple right in front of me. Aren't you looking down on me?" Yuan Se asked with a smile.
Lu Wushuang said sternly, "You've really taught a clever and eloquent disciple! Fatty Yuan, don't tell me you really believe his nonsense? "
From her point of view, Ding Wei was just sophistry. She knew very well that she was not lying. Niu Youdao had clearly told her that Ding Wei was the one who coveted the Immeasurable Fruit. Ding Wei was just twisting the facts!
She really did not expect things to turn out this way when the evidence was already clear. However, Niu Youdao's actions before his death were indeed very strange. After Ding Wei pointed it out, even she herself felt that she could not explain herself.
Yuan Se said, "The innocent are innocent, the guilty are innocent. You could have just talked things out clearly, why did you have to fight?"
"What happened?" A silhouette flashed into the courtyard. It was Wu Chang, who was half-naked and had disheveled hair, and a pair of fierce eyes.
Soon after, Granny Xue, Luo Qiu, and the others arrived one by one. The Sages who were temporarily staying in the Heaven Seeking City were all alarmed by the sound of the battle.
Glancing at the people who had gathered, Yuan Se said cheerfully, "It's fine, the great beauty has a bad temper. My subordinates have unintentionally offended you."
Turning back to Lv Wushuang, he said, "Great beauty Lv, my subordinates are insensible. I will teach them a lesson. It is not your turn to discipline my people!"
Lv Wushuang's expression was not very good. However, when she met Yuan Se's meaningful gaze, she finally snorted coldly and turned her head to the side, not saying anything else.
The Immeasurable Fruit in the Immeasurable Garden was controlled by the rules of the nine clans. If anyone dared to act rashly and break the rules, they would have to leave the position of guardian. This was no different from handing over control of the Immeasurable Fruit. The reason why Lv Wushuang only informed Yuan Se and not the others was because she wanted to use this to threaten Yuan Se in exchange for the benefits she wanted.
Who knew that Ding Wei would bite back at her, making it difficult for her to explain herself.
Now, this matter could not be exposed. Once it was exposed, the other seven clans would not care so much. No matter who was innocent, as long as they found an excuse, they would definitely join forces to force Yuan Se and Lv Wushuang to leave the Immeasurable Garden. If the seven clans joined forces, the two of them would not be a match for them. They could only cover up this matter, otherwise it would not be good for anyone.
Just like this, the commotion was covered up by the two of them. After everyone dispersed, Yuan Se approached Lv Wushuang, who was still angry, and whispered, "Do you really have a way to obtain the things in the Immeasurable Garden?"
Under the joint supervision of the Nine Saints, let alone others, even the Nine Saints would find it difficult to obtain the Immeasurable Fruit.
Lv Wushuang was angry. "What do you mean?"
Yuan Se: "Don't you know what I mean? If you can really obtain it, we will join forces and sooner or later this world will be ours. There will be no more messy hindrances. "He gestured for them to split it evenly.
Not only did other people want to obtain the Immeasurable Fruit, but the Nine Saints also wanted to obtain it.
If they really obtained those things, they could secretly cultivate twelve Nascent Soul masters of their own and use them to take action at a critical moment.
"You are really easy to fool. You were tricked by your disciple with just a few words." Lv Wushuang sneered and left.
Yuan Se was not sure if he had been fooled by his disciple, but Ding Wei's words did make sense. Lv Wushuang could not get rid of his own suspicion.
Similarly, Yuan Se no longer trusted Ding Wei after such an unclear matter had occurred.
Ding Wei's authority as the Misty Pavilion's leader was stripped. Yuan Se's reason was that he would not rest until the case of Niu Youdao's assassination was solved. He assigned Ding Wei to investigate the case, which seemed to be a punishment for Ding Wei's dissatisfaction with the progress of the investigation. The Dayuan Holy Land changed the leader of the Misty Pavilion to Ding Wei's senior brother, Huo Kong.
Ding Wei knew that he would soon become a mere figurehead until he was placed under house arrest. It was hard to predict what would happen to him in the end. There were not many moves against him now because he did not want the other seven sects to suspect him. However, in the face of such a situation, it was already a blessing in disguise to be able to escape with his life intact.
In the dark dungeon, Xuan Yao, who had been tortured until he was covered in cuts and bruises, was thrown back into the cell. He struggled to crawl to the wall and slowly sat up against it.
He could not escape this calamity. He had already confessed to the assassination of Niu Youdao, so how could he escape?
He did not know what was going on with Ding Wei outside. He only knew that they were torturing him, forcing him to reveal if it was Ding Wei who had instructed him to assassinate Niu Youdao. They were also forcing him to reveal if he had helped Ding Wei do anything that could not be exposed.
It was not without a 'reason' that he could become Ding Wei's confidant. It was because of this' reason 'that he did not reveal anything that was detrimental to Ding Wei.
He slowly twisted a ball of paper in his palm. When he was being dragged back, the person who was holding him had secretly stuffed a ball of paper into his hand.
He opened the ball of paper to take a look. There were only seven words on it: Don't worry about the matters outside!
He originally had a glimmer of hope that he would survive because he could see that Yuan Se wanted to cover up the matter. Perhaps, he could survive because of this.
However, after reading the words on the paper, he knew that he would not survive. The people outside were unable to protect him, and they did not want him to live and cause trouble in the future.
A bitter smile gradually appeared on his face. He crumpled the paper into a ball and stuffed it into his mouth, slowly swallowing it.
"Hehe …" He laughed bitterly and cried. Tears flowed down his face.
He was filled with regret. Now that he thought about it, he knew that he should not have done this. For a mere Niu Youdao, he had implicated so many people and even lost his life. Was it worth it?
After his body struggled to leave the wall, he suddenly gathered the last of his strength. Dong! He fiercely smashed his head into the stone wall …
In the Central Hall, after handing over everything to Senior Brother Huo Kong, Ding Wei bowed and left. Huo Kong nodded slightly without any expression.
Ding Wei turned around and left. Just as he walked out of the door, Huang Ban came over and whispered, "Xuan Yao has gone."
Ding Wei took a deep breath. His expression was complicated. He did not say anything and walked away with large strides.
…
Immeasurable Garden. Ao Feng's footsteps were heavy as he slowly walked out of Void Hall. He had just paid his respects to his master, Ye Nian, and wanted to take a leave of absence to escape.
No matter what happened to Niu Youdao's death, the thing was still in the hands of the Fox Clan.
He had been apprehensive before, not knowing if Niu Youdao's promise was still effective. However, he had thought it through recently. Regardless of whether it was effective or not, he had to give it a try. If it was ineffective, he could just come back or hide here for as long as he could.
Continuing to stay here was too scary. He had to live in fear every day. Once the fake thing on the tree was exposed and they could not find out who had it, no one in Immeasurable Garden would be able to survive.
Niu Youdao had said that even if he was captured, he could use the temptation of the Immeasurable Fruit to find someone to save him. However, the problem was that Niu Youdao was now dead!
Yesterday, when he was on duty, he received a message from the Fox Clan. They clearly told him that this was the last message and that they would not contact him again. Since the thing was already in his hands, he naturally had to eliminate the possibility of it being exposed.
The last message was to tell him to leave as soon as possible!
The Fox Clan had said that they would follow Niu Youdao's arrangements. This gave him some confidence and also made him decide to leave.
Thus, after his shift this morning, he had come to find his master to ask for leave. However, Ye Nian did not grant him leave!
Ye Nian had expressed his intentions very clearly. Before the matter of the traitor was investigated, the entire Immeasurable Garden was in a sealed state. No one was allowed to leave, and as his master, it was not good for him to take care of his disciple.
Ye Nian's intention was to wait for the matter to blow over.
There was no other way. Ao Feng's heart was tightly clenched. He did not know how long he would have to endure these days of fear. Outsiders would not be able to understand his fear. As long as there was the slightest disturbance from the Immeasurable Fruit Tree, he would be scared out of his wits. This was not a life a human could live!
However, he did not dare to confess. From the moment he picked those twelve fruits, he knew that he could no longer turn back …
In the canyon, at the same old place, Niu Youdao and Sha Rulai met again.
If there were no accidents, this would be the last time they would meet here. Sha Rulai had arranged everything. This time, he was going to take Niu Youdao away from the Sage Realm.
