Beauty and the Bodyguard

Just as Elder Xu said, when he was present, he also deliberately killed people, somewhat contemptuous of the Jianchun Sect and him as an elder.

"Elder Xu, junior Huang Shulang, it was junior's brother Cai Bei who died! Sima Yi, he deliberately poisoned the food and killed my brother!"

When Huang Shulang saw Elder Xu coming in person to investigate the crime, he felt reassured and quickly stood beside Elder Xu: "Sima Yi has a vicious mind. Elder Xu must be careful not to stay out of his way!"

"Sima Yi! Do you still dare to attack me?"

Elder Xu snorted coldly, and glanced at Lin Yi with dangerous eyes: "Originally, killing people is only enough to eliminate them, but your behavior of poisoning is quite bad. If I don't give you any punishment, I'm afraid no one will be convinced!"

"Elder Xu, you really can't blame me for this. Could it be that Elder Xu didn't even ask and just believed the weasel's words? Listen to their names. One is called weasel and the other is called jackal. It's obvious that they are working together in a cowardly manner. Good stuff!"

Lin Yi spread his hands and said nonsense with an innocent face: "There are so many people here. Everyone has seen it with their own eyes and can vouch for me. Cai Bei came to snatch my food. I told him that my food was poisonous. He can't eat it, because eating it will kill him, but he doesn't believe it! What can I do? I am also very helpless!"

The onlookers couldn't help but twitch the corners of their mouths when they heard this, saying to themselves that you are a helpless idiot! Who would believe it?

The tone was clearly meant to scare people. Who would listen to words that were clearly meant to scare people?

But in the end it turned out that it was not a bluff!

But you make people think you are trying to scare people, and no one believes you even if you say you didn’t mean it!

"Hey, everyone, please testify, did I say these things? Did Cai Bei not listen to my advice at all and insist on eating poisonous food?"

Lin Yi looked around at the warriors around him. Because it was true, no one could refute it: "Elder Xu, you have also seen it. Everyone can testify for me. So Cai Bei is seeking death himself, and one of them insists on taking poison." I can't hold back a person who commits suicide even if I want to! Could it be that I am also responsible for his suicide? What's the point?"

Huang Shulang was going crazy, not because Lin Yi said that he and Cai Bei were in cahoots, but because Lin Yi was so eloquent in his arguments. If Elder Xu was persuaded, wouldn't he be retaliated by Lin Yi at any time?

"Sima Yi! No matter how much you say, it's useless. Cai Bei died because he ate your food! Why is it okay for you to eat it by yourself? It was obviously you who poisoned Cai Bei later and took the opportunity to poison him!"

Huang Shulang's mind was still clear, and he actually revealed the truth with one sentence: "Cai Bei ate poisonous food without any scruples just because he saw you eating it, and you still said that you didn't kill someone intentionally? !”

"Haha...it's really funny. I eat my own poisonous food. Why should anything happen to me?"

Lin Yi glanced at Huang Shulang jokingly, as if looking at a clown, and Huang Shulang was speechless.

Yes, if Lin Yi poisoned himself, he would definitely have an antidote, so he would be fine even if he ate poisonous food.

But who the hell would poison food and eat it themselves? The taste is too bland. Should I add some poison to enhance the taste?

"Elder Xu, the Body Tempering Poison Technique that I practice usually requires me to absorb some toxins for practice, so is it strange that my food is poisonous?"

Lin Yi ignored Huang Shulang and turned to Elder Xu and said, "Besides, I have repeatedly warned that my food is poisonous. If others don't believe it, or if they believe it, they insist on committing suicide, what does it have to do with me?"

Huang Shulang looked confused. He was still thinking of refuting Lin Yi, but when Lin Yi said this reason, he suddenly had no way to refute!

Of course he knew about the Body Tempering Poison Technique, and basically everyone present had heard of it, so Lin Yi's reason was extremely powerful and explained everything very well.

Calculating it this way, Cai Bei can really only blame himself for his unlucky situation. Whose food is it not good to steal? He has to steal the food of a warrior who practices the Body Tempering Poison Kung Fu?

It’s true that you can forgive the sins committed by God, but you can’t live if you commit the sins yourself!

Moreover, after offending Lin Yi, a person who practiced the body tempering poison technique, Huang Shulang felt that his future was really bleak. Is it too late to admit defeat and beg for mercy now?

"Okay, I'm clear about what happened!"

Elder Xu frowned slightly, still seeming a little dissatisfied with Lin Yi: "No matter what, that person named...Cai Bei always died after eating your Sima Yi's food, so according to the rules, you are the one who died." The person directly responsible for this matter! No matter what happens, you can’t escape it!”

Huang Shulang's eyes lit up. Listening to Elder Xu's intention, it seemed that he wanted to continue to hold Lin Yi accountable. If Lin Yi could be directly disqualified, would he be safe?

"Elder Xu, you mean...am I still the one who killed Cai Bei?"

Lin Yi's eyes turned cold. Although this was indeed the case, his explanation was extremely perfect. If he continued to hold on to him, that was because Xu was deliberately targeting him!

Once the determination is made, Lin Yi will naturally be disqualified for killing people, and this matter will become more troublesome!

"What? Are you dissatisfied with what I say?"

Elder Xu glanced at Lin Yi indifferently and said in a deep voice: "My decision is not something that a junior like you can criticize at will!"

Lin Yi was secretly angry in his heart. He didn't particularly care about his identity as an outer disciple of the Jianchun Sect. In the past, Elder Xu's strength was not even that of an ant. Targeting junk goods?

If it weren't for Wu Yucao and others, Lin Yi might have turned against him. If he was disqualified, he would be disqualified. Do you really think that the outer disciples of Jian Chun Sect are rare?

"Elder Xu, Brother Sima doesn't mean that, so don't worry about it!"

But at this moment, Ai Fan suddenly jumped out and started to smooth things over!

While speaking, Ai Fan winked at Elder Xu, then turned to Lin Yi and said: "Brother Sima, please be patient. Elder Xu is the most fair and just, and there will definitely be a satisfactory solution to this matter!"

"City Master Ai Shao, what did I say?"

Lin Yi casually cupped his hands and said calmly: "I just explained my innocence. Whether Elder Xu can listen to it or not is not up to me to say!"

Elder Xu snorted coldly, obviously dissatisfied with Lin Yi's attitude. Ai Fan hurriedly stepped forward, smiled and waved his hand: "Elder Xu should be stricter for the rules of assessment, but what Brother Sima said is equally reasonable. Elder Xu It’s better to think about it properly, after all, the law is nothing more than human relationships, and everyone will be grateful to Elder Xu for your generosity!"

Except for the people on Lin Yi's side, everyone else was sneering in their hearts. Punishing Lin Yi severely was the result they wanted. If Elder Xu really spared Lin Yi generously, they would definitely not be grateful, but would be quite dissatisfied.
