Chapter 227: Justification 🛡️

Published: November 30, -0001

"Who else could have killed them if not this kid? Didn't you hear what that Qin Feng said? It was Qin Chen who used poison to kill His Highness the Third Prince and Nian Wuji!"

Wei Chi Cheng’s eyes were filled with resentment, a killing intent soaring to the sky as he gritted his teeth and said, "Moreover, His Highness the Third Prince and Nian Wuji died the day before yesterday. At that time, two disciples from the Da Qi Kingdom were teleported out and clearly stated that His Highness the Third Prince and Nian Wuji were surrounding and attacking Qin Chen and Zi Xun. Now, the two of them are fine, but His Highness the Third Prince and Nian Wuji just happened to die at that moment. If they weren't killed by him, who else could it be?"

As he said this, Wei Chi Cheng’s killing intent intensified, staring fixedly at Qin Chen, wishing he could peel his skin and gnaw on his bones.

Ling Zhong also coldly looked at Qin Chen, the killing intent in his eyes unabashed.

Qin Feng smiled slightly from the side.

This was exactly the effect he wanted.

Now, let’s see how Qin Chen can be proud.

A hint of malice flashed in his eyes.

"Wei Tianming, with so much evidence gathered, what else do you have to say?"

Wei Tianming was speechless, dumbfounded.

He naturally knew about the events of the day before yesterday. At that time, Wei Chi Cheng had mocked Xiao Zhan, while Xiao Zhan from Da Qi Kingdom, upon learning that the princess was in danger, was extremely worried.

Could it be that Cao Heng and Nian Wuji were really killed by Qin Chen?

For a moment, everyone looked at Qin Chen.

This kid is so young, yet he could kill Cao Heng and Nian Wuji? Isn’t that too exaggerated?

"Evidence? Those things you mentioned are not evidence, they are just assumptions, right?" At this moment, Qin Chen suddenly spoke.

"Even at this time, you still want to quibble?" Wei Chi Cheng’s expression darkened as he coldly snorted.

"Quibble?" Qin Chen was taken aback. "Do you think with my strength, I could kill Cao Heng and Nian Wuji?"

Wei Chi Cheng was stunned, carefully observing Qin Chen.

Indeed, Qin Chen was too young. If he were to say he could kill Cao Heng and Nian Wuji, in the past, he would never have believed it.

But now, with all sorts of evidence gathered, he couldn’t help but believe it.

"Hmph, indeed, with your strength, if you truly made a move, you probably wouldn’t even touch a single hair of His Highness Cao Heng. However, Qin Feng clearly stated that you used poison to secretly harm His Highness Cao Heng. Such despicable methods anger both gods and men. How could I spare you?"

Wei Chi Cheng coldly snorted and looked at Wei Tianming, his expression indifferent. "Wei Tianming, if this child had really killed His Highness the Third Prince with his true strength, I would naturally have nothing to say. But now, he used despicable means to secretly harm His Highness Cao Heng, and I must seek justice for His Highness the Third Prince."

"Should I say you have a pig's brain, or that you are simply foolish?" Qin Chen coldly laughed at Wei Chi Cheng.

"What did you say?"

Boom!

Wei Chi Cheng suddenly erupted with a terrifying aura, his face twisted in anger, nearly rushing out.

He was the number one expert from the Great Wei Kingdom, high-ranking and powerful. Anyone who spoke to him did so respectfully, yet now he was cursed as a pig by a stinky kid who hadn’t even matured—how could he not be furious?

"Isn’t it so? This Qin Feng is a disciple of my Da Qi Kingdom and also my brother Qin Chen. Yet he deliberately said such things. Don’t you find it a bit suspicious?" Qin Chen said with a half-smile.

His expression was calm, his tone indifferent. Even at this moment, he showed no signs of panic, standing tall among the crowd.

He didn’t take the opportunity to distance himself from Ling Zhong and Wei Chi Cheng but instead stood his ground, as if he didn’t take the two to heart.

This kind of demeanor immediately shocked many powerful figures present, each showing an expression of surprise.
