As soon as we arrived at the main hall, we were instantly enveloped by an invisible aura. The scene was completely silent and the atmosphere was extremely depressing.

There was an invisible tension in the air, like a gathering of dark clouds, weighing down people's hearts. The Smiling Tiger, who had looked confident and calm before, was also there, now kneeling with a pale face, his eyes full of panic, and there were even water droplets on his body left over from his bath. It seemed that he was caught halfway through his bath.

Shen Liuyi seemed to be affected by this atmosphere as well. He slowed down his pace and rarely gloated over something else: "What happened?"

Tantai Caicai spoke immediately, her tone full of comfort: "Don't be afraid, Liuyi, we just asked you to come here to ask a question."

Yu Xiao interrupted Tan Tai Cai Cai's comfort with a cold face. At this point, only Tan Tai Cai Cai was blind and thought that Shen Liuyi would be afraid.

"Mrs. Liu is dead." Yu Xiao stared at Shen Liuyi, trying to find a flaw on her face, but he was destined to be disappointed.

"It should have been done a long time ago." Shen Liuyi smiled impeccably: "What are you going to do with the other two people?"

Yu Xiao frowned: "We didn't kill him."

It would have been fine if they had killed him, but he died during the interrogation.

Shen Liuyi showed just the right amount of confusion, then glanced at the Smiling Tiger kneeling on the ground, and suddenly he showed a look of sudden enlightenment.

Yu Xiao spoke before Shen Liuyi could open his mouth: "Tell me what happened during the interrogation."

Shen Liuyi showed an impatient look: "Don't you know that your communication stone is just for show?"

Smiling Tiger hurriedly said: "Master, this matter really has nothing to do with me. She was sentenced to death. Why would I kill her under such circumstances? I am not that stupid."

Shen Liuyi thought for a moment: "But I remember that prisoners can't commit suicide."

The scene was suddenly silent. Shen Liuyi cast a puzzled look at Tan Tai Cai Cai. Tan Tai Cai Cai then said, "Of course it's impossible to restrain her with chains, but her hands and feet were broken, and the chains fell off to the side..."

At this point, everyone showed an uncomfortable expression.

Tan Tai Cai Cai said softly, "She suffered inhuman torture before her death. Not only were her limbs twisted off, but there were also many marks of tearing on her body. The fatal wound was on her skull, which was smashed to pieces. The attacks used were the most common ones, so it is impossible to identify the murderer based on the characteristics."

Shen Liuyi was really surprised now. She couldn't kill herself before the restriction was completely removed, so she tortured herself until she was covered with bruises, and then broke her last hand. After completely getting rid of the chains, she killed herself.

As expected, all that she suffered was what she had once inflicted on the ghost baby girl.

Shen Liuyi sighed a little, but it was just a sigh.

Smiling Tiger really had no way to defend himself. He said weakly, "It's not me. She is a spiritual master. It's not that she has no hands or feet and has no killing power. If she is free from the restrictions, she can do the same."

His voice became smaller and smaller, until it was almost inaudible.

No one said anything. What Smiling Tiger said made sense, but since they had no grudges against each other, who would make such a big sacrifice to frame him?

This is totally unacceptable.

Normally, the communication stone cannot be shut down without permission during the interrogation, but Smiling Tiger shut down the communication stone after Shen Liuyi left, and stayed in it for quite a long time.

When we found him, he was taking a shower again. Thinking of the bloody scene at the scene, he might have been washing the blood stains on his body.

To sum up, Smiling Tiger is actually more suspicious than Shen Liuyi, who has obvious ill intentions towards Liu's mother.

Yu Xiao pressed his brows in pain, not knowing how this result could have happened.

I am glad that there is also one thing that does not make sense, that is, how could he not clean up the scene and destroy the evidence after killing someone, but go take a shower?

So the main question is, Yu Xiao took a deep breath: "Why did you turn off the communication stone?"

Yu Xiao gave him a chance, but the ridiculous tiger simply couldn't control himself. He couldn't say that he was trying to persuade Liu's mother to give false testimony for Liu Qing.

Under the intimidating gaze of so many elders, the inexperienced Smiling Tiger swallowed nervously, and his usually versatile and eloquent mouth trembled violently.

His wandering eyes showed his guilty conscience.

Silence was more powerful than words at this moment. Yu Xiao's anger surged up and he pointed at him and cursed: "What else dare you hide? Do you want to die?"

Yu Xiao rarely scolded his disciples in such a disrespectful manner in public, but recently bad things had happened one after another and his temper was getting worse.

He now shows impatience even towards Jun Qingyi, who used to be obedient to him, let alone a mere disciple.

"No, it's not me..." Smiling Tiger explained in a panic: "There is a misunderstanding here. I left before she died, and it was a while later! And Shen Liuyi and she had a big fight before they left."

"You have to be truthful when you speak." Shen Liuyi took two steps back and looked at the smiling tiger kneeling on the ground: "It's true that I want to kill her, but why should I take the risk of a person who is doomed to die?"

"Moreover, do you really not trust the restrictions of your Qingzhao Ancient Sect?" Shen Liuyi had a sympathetic look on his face, as if he was looking at a mentally retarded person.

"Do you think that I, a Spirit King of the first level, can sneak into the dungeon and kill a criminal without alerting anyone, and then escape without leaving any flaws? This is too ridiculous."

Intellectually, Smiling Tiger also told him that this was impossible. If this were true, their Qingzhao Ancient Sect would become the laughing stock of the Jingling World. However, he was the only one present at the scene besides Shen Liuyi.

Smiling Tiger said: "If I killed him, why didn't I destroy the body?"

This is an artistic way of saying it. Not only does he drag Shen Liuyi into this for no reason, but he actually wants Shen Liuyi to provide evidence of his innocence because of his words. Isn't this funny?

Shen Liuyi said: "I'm not a pervert who likes to kill people, how can I know what you are thinking?"

"Maybe you had this in mind, knowing that you would be discovered sooner or later, so you left this loophole on purpose."

Smiling Tiger was furious: "Why would I kill her? I have no reason to do so!"

"Yes," Shen Liuyi said slowly with deep eyes, "The reason is that you want to shut down the communication stone. You didn't dare to let others know about it. If you didn't do anything wrong, why did you do this?"

Shen Liuyi smiled: "You want to make a deal with her, or you are afraid that some of your ugly deeds will be exposed, so you decided to kill her to silence her. Ah, maybe you want to protect Liu Qing, after all, she is..."

"enough!"

Yu Xiao stopped Shen Liuyi from continuing. Seeing that Yu Xiao was angry, Smiling Tiger immediately lowered his head and dared not say anything.

Yu Xiao looked at Shen Liuyi unkindly: "Shen Liuyi, you have to have evidence when you speak. Are you crazy? Why are you speaking so aggressively?"

"Some people would have a gloomy face all year round just because they are owed 5 million." Shen Liuyi said this without making any sense, and then changed the subject: "If someone owed you 207 million high-grade spirit stones, you would not be able to smile either, Sect Master Yu."

Yu Xiao: “…”
