Chapter 190 Have you ever seen it with your own eyes?
Xuanfeng Sect found three people from Shiqiao Village, one of whom was Cheng Yaozu, the biological son of Cheng Shuyan’s adoptive parents.
After the disciples of Xuanfeng Sect gave the three people the True Word Pill, Xiao Pingshan began to question an old woman in her sixties.
"I'm asking you, did you witness Cheng Shuyan murder her adoptive parents decades ago?"
The old woman knew that everyone present was a high and mighty immortal in their eyes, and for a moment her legs were so weak that she couldn't even kneel.
She supported herself on the ground with her hands and said tremblingly, "I...I dare not deceive you immortals. I am from Shiqiao Village. I don't know if that girl is called Cheng Shuyan. I only know that the Cheng family has a daughter named Cheng Dani.
Cheng Dayong and his wife arranged a marriage for her, but for some unknown reason, this girl brutally killed her parents and the groom when her husband's family came to pick her up.
Later, the girl disappeared. After the government had been looking for her for a while, it was heard that someone came to the government and said that he had seen the girl jump into the river with his own eyes. He was afraid that her body was not found, so the case was dropped.
Xiao Pingshan was quite satisfied with this answer. Although he had not seen the murder with his own eyes, he could roughly infer the result from her words.
He turned to look at the second person and asked, "What about you? Did you see it with your own eyes? Tell us everything you know!"
"Look, I saw it. I saw it with my own eyes! I was also part of the wedding procession back then.
After we arrived at the Cheng family, the bride served us breakfast at the instruction of the Cheng couple. However, we didn't know that the breakfast was poisoned. After we ate it, we all collapsed to the ground.
Then the bride came out with an axe and killed the Cheng couple and the groom right in front of us."
At this point, everyone became even more excited.
This man had taken the Mantra Pill and was a mortal with no cultivation, so there was no way he could say anything false.
Xiao Pingshan was very satisfied with everyone's reaction. The corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously and he looked at Cheng Yaozu.
"I heard that you are the brother of that witch? Can you tell me what happened?"
Cheng Yaozu fell to his knees with a thud, his body trembling uncontrollably.
He lay there for a long time, but Xiao Pingshan didn't rush him. He waited patiently for him to recover.
Cheng Yaozu seemed to be prepared. Just as he raised his head and was about to speak, another voice suddenly rang out in the square.
"Can't tell? How about I say it for you?"
Jiang Hongyue, dressed in red and holding a sledgehammer in each hand, flew out from behind the crowd.
She looked at Xiao Pingshan with a mocking look on his face, and waved the sledgehammer in her hand in his direction provocatively.
Ever since Xiao Pingshan heard her voice, he inexplicably felt an ominous premonition in his heart.
He always felt that this matter might be ruined by this person.
"Who are you? Why are you disrupting the actions of my Xuanfeng Sect? Are you an associate of the Hidden World Sect and the witch?" he shouted sternly.
Jiang Hongyue ignored his threatening tone, but instead had an expression that looked like she was laughing in anger.
"Ha! Sect Leader Xiao, didn't your Xuanfeng Sect say that this was to purge the world of immortal cultivation of unhealthy practices?
In this case, every cultivator is qualified to ask, right?
Besides, since this is a trial, we can't just listen to your side of the story, right? We have to give the suspect a chance to defend himself, right?
As soon as Jiang Hongyue appeared, Helan Ci felt that she looked very familiar, but he couldn't remember who she was.
When she spoke in a familiar tone, Helan Ci suddenly remembered the nightmare from decades ago. He quickly shrank back and hid behind Song Xu.
"Huh? Brother Helan, why are you standing at the back?" Lin Ziqi asked curiously.
If he saw it correctly, Helan Ci had a fearful expression on his face just now?
But what is he afraid of?
Although the female cultivator who just appeared has the cultivation level of Nascent Soul, how could Helan Ci, the young master of the Helan family, be afraid of a Nascent Soul cultivator?
What's more, there are so many people here. No matter how powerful the female cultivator is, she can't hurt him, right?
Helan Ci gave him an unfathomable look, "Zi Qi, you are still young and don't know the seriousness of the matter. I advise you not to mess with that crazy woman.
Now that she is here today, Xuanfeng Sect can do nothing. Just wait and see.
If you need to choose a side, don't hesitate, just choose that crazy woman!"
Helan Ci usually looks indifferent and aloof, and this is the first time they have heard him think so highly of someone.
They were all very curious about the identity of this female cultivator who suddenly appeared, and asked her about it.
Even Song Xu, who usually only had eyes for swords, couldn't help but tilt his head and wait for his answer.
Unexpectedly, Helan Ci kept the secret: "If this crazy woman doesn't want to tell me her identity, then I naturally can't tell her either.
But judging by the situation today, she's probably determined to stand up for Cheng Shuyan and the Hidden World Sect. Maybe you'll know who she is soon."
After saying that, he muttered, "I don't know how Cheng Shuyan managed to get this support. She's been gone for so many years, and yet she's willing to come forward for this matter."
Meng Tingwan silently rolled her eyes at Helan Ci and turned her attention back to the field.
She felt from the beginning that Cheng Shuyan would be fine. Although the situation seemed very unfavorable to Cheng Shuyan, she had a vague feeling that things would turn around.
Her intuition has always been accurate, and she has escaped pursuit many times by relying on it.
Meng Tingwan believed that her intuition would not be wrong this time.
Isn't it? The red-robed female cultivator appeared immediately.
Judging from Helan Ci's expression, the appearance of this Nascent Soul stage senior will definitely be able to turn the situation around.
Meng Tingwan became even more curious and listened attentively to the conversation between the female cultivator and Sect Leader Xiao, fearing that she would miss any key information.
Xiao Pingshan didn't want her to continue talking, as delaying would lead to changes. It would be better to settle the matter first.
"Humph! The evidence is all here, what else is there to refute? I think you are the witch's accomplice. How dare you come here openly to cause trouble? Are you trying to bully my Xuanfeng Sect because there is no one there?"
His words made Jiang Hongyue laugh out loud: "Master Xiao, are you feeling guilty? You don't even dare to let me refute you?"
Xiao Pingshan didn't want to drag it on any longer, so he simply said to the Cen family ancestor who had remained silent in the back:
"You haven't even revealed your identity, so what right do you have to argue? Master Cen, please take down this evil woman!"
Upon hearing this, the Cen family's ancestor opened his eyes and looked in the direction of Jiang Hongyue, his eyes full of danger.
He suddenly made a light gesture in the direction of Jiang Hongyue, intending to go through the crowd and capture Jiang Hongyue directly.
Seeing this, Jiang Hongyue remained calm and even laughed even louder.
Just when the ancestor of the Cen family was about to take her down, a dazzling spiritual seal suddenly appeared behind her and collided with the ancestor of the Cen family's virtual palm.
