All Heavens: Starting from Douluo
Chapter 1022 Xiao Family Retreats
Looking at the witness who had completely lost his life, whose blood was slowly soaking the red carpet on the ground and who wanted to put the blame on their Xiao family before he died, Xiao Wancheng's face was gloomier than ever before.
Every word in Lin Chaoci's question was like a slap in the face. Even though he knew there was something fishy, he was powerless in the face of Lin Chaoci's sharp questions.
Would anyone joke with their own life?
will not!
This is an answer that everyone knows.
Others knew it, and he knew it too.
The witness he found committed suicide in front of everyone to prove that what he said was true, and the impact was huge.
Once the confession was reviewed, everything was different.
Especially this damn witness.
He changed his confession and refused to say anything.
He also played the trick of leaving no evidence behind.
To be honest, even if the witness did not change his confession and died without any evidence, he could define this incident as murder to silence him. However, if he changed his confession and then died, this idea would have to be scrapped.
Moreover, after careful thought, Xiao Wancheng even felt some inexplicable fear.
He was sure that what the witness had reported to him before were all true, because the witness wanted to climb up. Since he wanted to climb up, he would never falsely accuse Mu Renzhi of such a thing. He would either trample Mu Renzhi to death or be trampled to death by Mu Renzhi. Without absolute certainty, such a scum would not speak a word, not to mention that he, Xiao Wancheng, had been in the position of the Inspector of the Taoist Alliance for so many years, and his eyes had been honed long ago. He could tell whether someone was lying or not with just a few words.
But this witness still died!
He died mysteriously at the hands of his own sword!
As a master who was only ten steps away from the witness, he never thought that the witness would commit suicide, let alone notice that someone had done anything!
Follow this line and think further.
Isn't today's witness the same person as tomorrow?
Even if the murderer behind the scenes who controlled the witness to commit suicide has limited strength and can only control people with similar cultivation to the witness, and cannot control him, however, not all members of the Xiao family are masters like him. For example, if his daughter is controlled and publicly tells the dirty deeds of the Xiao family, such as being tortured into confessing, or even making up things that never happened, how should he respond?
The Xiao family has held the position of Inspector for generations.
If the amulet called "justice" is lost.
The other families in the Taoist Alliance would definitely not mind joining forces to destroy the Xiao family.
This is an answer, an attitude.
Also a warning.
If he stopped here, everything would be fine.
If he still wants to take advantage of the situation, the fate of this witness will be the fate of all the people in the Xiao family in the future. Moreover, even if he wants to take advantage of the situation, he will not be able to succeed at this critical juncture when public opinion is reversing.
There seem to be many choices left for him, but in fact, there are only two - either leave with ease, or leave with disgrace!
Weigh the pros and cons.
Even if Xiao Wancheng felt unwilling.
In the face of the ironclad evidence that cost a life, he could only put on a face of hatred and hatred: "It turned out to be a misunderstanding... Such a villain has lost all conscience. Even if he wakes up at the end of his life, he deserves to be killed and dragged out to feed the dogs... I hope that Master Yang will forgive me. I am only following the rules of the Taoist League and enforcing the law. I never thought that I would be deceived. I am really ashamed. But I should say something that I shouldn't say. Master Yang should also discipline his disciples. There is such a villain who falsely accuses his fellow disciples... Forget it, on the day of the wedding, I will not stay for long. I will take my leave now. Master Yang and all the masters, please stay!"
Xiao Wancheng knew Yang Yifang's character very well.
He also knew very well what the heads of these Taoist alliance families thought of him.
Therefore, even if you retreat, you are retreating to pave the way for yourself.
I don't expect others to give me a way out.
It's actually no big deal to suffer a loss in silence.
The days are still long.
No one can predict what the future holds.
I just need to be more careful and cautious about this strange Taoist method, which may even affect people's minds.
As for how to prevent it... it was as if when the Black Fox had not been nailed to the door by Dongfang Yuechu and Wang Quanfugui with swords, the other Taoists of the Yiqi Daomeng would have believed Dongfang Yuechu's excuses.
The so-called prevention is just prevention in the mind.
Death is like a lamp going out.
Even if he said that this witness was manipulated, and used this as an excuse to make other Taoist Alliance families understand and eliminate the possibility of their own people being controlled, would other Taoist Alliance families really believe his words?
If that was the case, he could already think of ten thousand reasons why the Xiao family was destroyed - the head of the family was controlled by someone and the entire Xiao family was wiped out!
The Inspector of the Dao Alliance only has corresponding power within the rules of the game.
But when everyone crosses the bottom line, the Taoist Alliance Inspector is nothing.
"Go slowly and don't send me away!"
Yang Yifang frowned and shook his sleeves.
I felt relieved, it was real.
The unhappy look on his face is genuine.
The death of this witness was so strange that not only Xiao Wancheng, a shrewd man, but even Yang Yifang and all the guests present could see it, but they just didn't say it out loud.
Therefore, when Xiao Wancheng resigned, Yang Yifang did not press any further.
To put it bluntly, Yang Yifang knew that he was in the wrong.
But on the wedding day, it would be fine if someone died. But if the wooden man was really taken away as Xiao Wancheng planned, not to mention what Yang Yan would think, even he, his father-in-law, would not be able to hold his head up.
Now, since there is no evidence, it is only natural to give up and make peace.
The reason why he was so upset was because the actions of that idiot Mu Renzhi were so ugly that it was hard to watch. If it weren't for the words that the witness shouted before his death, which helped to clear Mu Renzhi's name, just the two sentences that Mu Renzhi said before would have been enough to make him so angry that he had a heart attack.
But right now it's a wedding.
No matter how unhappy he is, he has to endure it.
Only by enduring until the wedding was over could he call the idiot Mu Renzhi over, give him a good beating, and make him unable to get out of bed for at least half a month.
To put it bluntly, all the planning before was just to save the Yang family's face. It couldn't be that the Xiao family didn't tear the Yang family's face off, and then he would self-destruct and let the Yang family have an undignified result, right?
Therefore, Yang Yifang had a sour face.
He returned to the viewing booth in a rage.
He glanced at the heads of the families beside him, nodded to the squinting housekeeper Fei, sighed slightly melancholy, and patted the shoulder of Lin Chaoci, who had returned to the viewing seat at some point, "I cannot thank you enough for your kindness..."
"Uncle Yang, you are too serious."
"If anyone really wants to thank someone, it should be the pigeon."
"If the pigeon hadn't come, I probably wouldn't have guessed the details."
Lin Chaoci declined.
Cover up the past without leaving any trace.
However, Yang Yifang is not a fool.
As the head of the Yang family, he knew clearly whether their Yang family had any magic to control people. He was also well aware of the unique skills of other families. The death of the witness was strange. Who else could have controlled the witness to turn against them, except Lin Chaoci, a genius who was suspected to have learned many kinds of magic from the secret teachings of the Taoist Alliance?
Therefore, Yang Yifang thanked Lin Chaoci.
Instead of thanking Pigeon and the heads of other families.
Because they all understood where the turning point of this storm came from.
