Chapter 715 – Are They Strong and Famous?

Chapter 715 – Are They Strong and Famous?

“You want evidence? Then I’ll give you evidence!” Sixth Uncle leapt forward once more, his eyes vicious, “My young master is a direct bloodline descendent of Hidden Tiger Lagoon. From birth he has been protected by the white tiger’s killing intent. Once he is killed, the one who did it will inevitably be tainted by that killing intent.”

He lifted, “The truth of whether you were the one who killed my young master can be seen with a single test!”

He thrust a finger at Yun Die.

Beneath the illuminating array formation, in the reception room that was as bright as daylight, traces of killing intent appeared in the air. They instantly condensed into the phantom of a tiger that bitterly roared at Yun Die.

Sixth Uncle was so angered his eyes nearly popped out of his head. “You vile temptress, what else do you have to say!”

It was actually her.

The Hidden Fog Sect cultivators were left shaken. This result was clearly beyond their expectations.

Elder Si’s face darkened. “Miss Yun Die, what explanation do you have for this?”

Yun Die remained expressionless. “I have no need to explain because I wasn’t the one who killed him.”

“Even now you are still so stubborn!” Sixth Uncle turned around and cupped his hands together, “Great uncle, please allow me to take this despicable woman back to Hidden Tiger Lagoon. Young Master Dou Zhan is the son who master dotes on the most. She must be put on trial there!”

Before Elder Si could say anything, Si Jia jumped out, “No, absolutely not!”

This sight left many people shocked. No matter how their relationship was, Dou Zhan was still her younger cousin.

Now that he had died and the murderer was found, Si Jia still tried to stop them…what was going on here?

Sixth Uncle’s face was colored with disbelief. “Miss Si…you…you…”

He was enraged to the point where he couldn’t speak.

Elder Si scolded, “Si Jia, silence! There is no place for you to speak here!”

Si Jia was caught between a rock and a hard place. But, there was one thing she was sure of. No matter how Dou Zhan died or who killed him, she couldn’t allow them to take Yun Die away.

Otherwise, not only would her father meet disaster, but the entire Hidden Fog Sect would welcome a terrifying retaliation!

This was the Grand Expert realm…just the strength they could summon left one trembling in terror.

With her thoughts quaking, Si Jia looked at Yun Die. Yun Die’s complexion was still faint and indifferent.

This sort of indifference was because she had sufficient confidence to face any situation.

But Si Jia did not have such confidence!

She clenched her teeth. Then, she walked over to Elder Si’s side and whispered some words into his ear.

Elder Si’s complexion immediately paled. “Are you speaking the truth?”

Si Jia’s expression was full of bitterness. “Rong Wei also knows of this matter. If father doesn’t believe me, then you only need to ask him.”

The reason the Hidden Fog Sect Master remained silent tonight was that he didn’t hope to develop any enmity with Grandmaster Ning Qin. Another reason was because Elder Si had rushed here first.

But at this time, seeing this new development, the Hidden Fog Sect Master furrowed his eyebrows and said, “Elder Si, what is it?”

Elder Si looked at his daughter’s bitter expression and believed most of what she said. His arms and feet began to feel a little numb. He hurriedly said, “Sect Master, there is something that I need to verify with Elder Rong Wei.”

The Hidden Fog Sect Master frowned. “Is it related to tonight’s murder?”

Elder Si nodded.

Of course it was related. If Ning Qin really was what his daughter said he was…then who would dare touch his disciple?

The Hidden Fog Sect Master turned and ordered, “Ask Mister Rong Wei to come here.”

Moments later, Rong Wei hurried over from the laboratory. He had already learned of everything while he was on the way.

When he saw the perfectly fine Yun Die, he let out a long breath of relief. Only then did he bow to the Hidden Fog Sect Master.

Elder Si already saw all of this in the background. Although he didn’t ask anything, he already knew the answer.

Ning Qin was actually…he was actually…

The Grand Expert realm, the legendary Grand Expert realm!

This wasn’t good. He absolutely could not ruin himself because of Dou Zhan.

What nonsense. To touch a Grand Expert’s disciple, what difference was that from pulling the tiger’s tail? No matter how fierce Hidden Tiger Lagoon was, today’s matter had nothing to do with him. Even if he didn’t handle things well, he only needed to shoulder some responsibility.

In that instant, Elder Si came to a decision!

“Cough! There are many questionable points in tonight’s tragedy, so it isn’t right to draw a conclusion so lightly. It would be better to set this matter aside for the time being and then make a judgment after collecting more evidence.”

The winds had suddenly reversed. All of the Hidden Fog sect cultivators widened their eyes as they heard this.

Was this fine?

The one who died was your sister’s son!

In this scene tonight, there were surprises all over.

Sixth Uncle’s face darkened. “Elder Si, what is the meaning of this?” His attitude changed and his words became harsh and distant. “So everyone in the Hidden Fog Sect is planning on protecting this horrible temptress? My young master is going to die in vain?

“Good! Very good! For my Hidden Tiger Lagoon to stand tall in this world, what we pay attention to the most is the sharp distinction between grudges and gratitude. If this is truly the case, then I will leave now. In the future, my family’s lord will definitely come to the Hidden Fog Sect to seek justice!”

This was a stark n.a.k.e.d threat.

Everyone in the Hidden Fog Sect felt their brains hurt. No one wanted to provoke those lunatics from Hidden Tiger Lagoon!

“Sixth Brother, calm your anger first. The Hidden Fog Sect has no such intent!”

“Perhaps Elder Si has another deeper meaning behind his words.”

“Elder Si, hurry and explain things to Sixth Brother here. Dou Zhan died in the Hidden Fog Sect, so we should help them punish the murderer!”

Elder Si was at a loss for words. Explanation? How do I explain? Do I publicly state that this girl Yun Die has a background that we cannot provoke? But if they were to tear apart all sense of face with Hidden Tiger Lagoon, things would become incredibly troublesome. For a time, he fell silent as he was caught in this dilemma.

Rong Wei could already see the situation. Elder Si must have learned of Mister Ning Qin’s true status through Si Jia. But, the other people in the Hidden Fog Sect didn’t know about this. The inconsistent information caused the two parties two have completely different attitudes.

Unless Mister Ning Qin’s status was announced in front of everyone, this deadlock wouldn’t continue much longer. Things would start to veer in a worsening direction for Miss Yun Die.

After all, no matter how important the dark star ice serpent was, it couldn’t compare to how dreadful and savage Hidden Tiger Lagoon could be. This was enough to have the Hidden Fog Sect’s clueless people make a ‘correct’ decision in their eyes.

His thoughts racing, Rong Wei took a step forward. He cupped his hands together and said, “Elder Si, why not invite Mister Ning Qin out here? Perhaps he will have a way to resolve this situation.”

To announce Mister Ning Qin’s status wasn’t proper, but blankly watching as Yun Die was taken away was even more improper. If so, this was his only choice. Thinking about it, with Mister Ning Qin’s wise and benevolent heart, he would surely see through the situation and forgive them for their actions.

Elder Si’s eyes brightened. “Great, let’s hurry and ask Mister Ning Qin to come!”

This was a good solution.

When Ning Qin arrived, the main conflict with Hidden Tiger Lagoon would shift onto him, and the Hidden Fog Sect could separate themselves from this mess.

At that time, no matter how much the two sides hated each other, it would have nothing to do with them and they wouldn’t be implicated in it.

The Hidden Fog Sect Master furrowed his eyebrows. Many of the high level figures made similar actions. They could all see that there was something wrong with Elder Si right now.

Tonight’s events became increasingly strange and puzzling!

Sixth Uncle had an uncertain look in his eyes. The situation was far too different from how he thought it would be. But, the problem was that he couldn’t find where the crux of the issue was, much less how to solve it. If he wanted to take Yun Die away, it seemed that his only chance was to force her teacher to make a concession.

Soon, there was the sound of footsteps. A black-robed figure entered everyone’s field of vision.

Rong Wei bowed deeply. “Mister Ning Qin.”

Sixth Uncle had already been waiting for some time. He shouted out, “You are that temptress’ teacher? She has killed my Hidden Tiger Lagoon’s young master. If you dare to say a single word, you will become the greatest enemy of my Hidden Tiger Lagoon!”

Let’s see just how scared you are.

But this was ultimately useless. Qin Yu didn’t even glance at him. He asked Yun Die, “What happened? Are you being bullied?”

With this question, Yun Die flushed red. When she faced all of these people she hadn’t shed a single tear, but now she couldn’t stop them from flowing out like a waterfall.

She felt aggrieved and also guilty. She blamed herself for this. She was originally a burden to her teacher and not only was she not able to help him, but she also kept getting him in trouble.

If teacher thought she was bothersome, would she be chased away? As soon as Yun Die thought about this, she sobbed harder.

The black-robed figure was silent for some time. With this scene in front of him, was there anything else to ask?

It was all clear at a glance!

Qin Yu looked up at Sixth Uncle. He faintly said, “What is Hidden Tiger Lagoon? Are they strong and famous?”

He put himself in a proud and arrogant position, not placing the Hidden Fog Sect, much less Hidden Tiger Lagoon in his eyes. He looked down upon all sides with disdain!

This wasn’t because Qin Yu dove too far into his act and truly thought he was a Grand Expert realm beast trainer. Rather, in this current situation he had no choice but to be tough.

When he left the laboratory and was walking over here, he had asked some simple questions. Combined with the expression of those present, it wasn’t difficult for him to draw a conclusion – this Hidden Tiger Lagoon was indeed fierce!

Then, if their young master was killed, it could be imagined what decision the Hidden Fog Sect would make.

If he admitted defeat, that would mean he tacitly consented to Yun Die being taken away. Not just that, but Rong Wei and Si Jia would begin to suspect his identity. Without reason, a Grand Expert wouldn’t bow his head before Hidden Tiger Lagoon. When they began to doubt him, things would become far more troublesome.

Thus, whether it was saving Yun Die or himself, Qin Yu needed to put forth the posture and bravado that a genuine Grand Expert would have.

Elder Si already believed he was a Grand Expert. So, Qin Yu needed the entire Hidden Fog Sect to believe this.

The Hidden Fog Sect people frowned. Ning Qin was being a little too c.o.c.ky. Even if he were a grandmaster level character, he still didn’t have the qualifications to be so insolent when facing Hidden Tiger Lagoon.

But Elder Si was an exception. His heart started to race and he was even more sure that this character in front of him was a Grand Expert level almighty being. This was a character whose status was comparable with the Divine Dao realm, someone who stood near the peak of this world!

“How dissolute!” Sixth Uncle roared, “Since you want to protect this temptress, then die!”

He wanted to use blood and death to deter everyone here. He wanted to teach them all how stupid it was to make Hidden Tiger Lagoon into an enemy.

As for whether or not he could kill Qin Yu…hoho, he was nothing but a pathetic beast trainer!
