I'm a Broker in an Otherworldly Realm

My name is Gu Yuan, and I transmigrated...

But I'm not panicking at all, because I have a system.

Others cultivate by snatching resources, while I rely on doing business. As the say...

Chapter 473: Slander

black market

After returning from Huoyun Sect, the little witch and Gu Yuan went straight back to the black market.

When he returned to the black market, Gu Yuan was somewhat surprised to see a group of people standing outside the Hammer King's room. This group of people seemed to be divided into two groups, and they were discussing something intensely.

It was the elders of the black market.

"What are you all doing? Making such a fuss?"

The little witch walked up to the group of people and asked calmly.

Among the crowd, several elders who were discussing loudly suddenly stopped talking.

"Go on, go on? Why don't you say anything?" the little witch asked coldly.

"Hmph! You still remember to come back. Let me ask you, where is the Hammer King? He was seriously injured before, but why didn't we find him in the secret room?"

One of the seven people stood up and asked.

If Chi Yuer was here, he would be able to recognize that this person was the one among the three people who came to cause trouble last time, and that Monk Huiming from the Small Buddhist Sect and the shifty-eyed man were also there!

The little witch's expression suddenly turned cold, and she asked, "You, searched the secret room?"

"What's wrong? Is there any problem? Do we need to report to you before we go in to see Senior Hammer Emperor?" someone said.

Monk Huiming looked around the little witch and did not see Chi Yuer, but he did not dare to speak. He was still frightened by the last injury. He just sneered in his heart and decided to let this fearless guy take care of this matter.

"Tell me, what do you want to do?" The little witch and Gu Yuan walked into the room, sat on the chairs and asked.

"Where is the Hammer King? He was injured so badly, there should be no reason for him to run outside again, right?" asked the man with shifty eyes.

"I don't think I need to report to you where Old Man Hammer went?" the little witch asked.

"You! You little girl, you're just a picked-up. I didn't say anything to you before for the Hammer Emperor's sake, but now you better watch your words. Don't say that the Hammer Emperor is not here, even if he were here, I have to let you know today that we are your elders, so you'd better be polite when you speak!"

The little witch narrowed her eyes and asked, "Are you sure?"

"What? Are you still trying to rebel?" The man with shifty eyes looked at the little witch in amazement.

The little witch sneered and was about to take action, but was stopped by Gu Yuan.

"Listen to what they say first and see what they exactly want to do, so that we can decide who to keep and who to deal with!" Gu Yuan said in a low voice.

The little witch took a deep breath, suppressed her unhappiness, nodded, and asked, "Tell me, what exactly do you want to do today? Don't dither, just say it directly if you have something to say."

"Where is the Hammer King? How are his injuries? You can always tell us this, right? This is related to the stability of our black market." Someone stood up and asked.

"Old Hammer's injury isn't serious anymore. He sneaked away a few days ago, probably looking for some materials again. I don't know when he'll be back, or even where he went!"

The little witch said it directly, as if to shut these people up.

"Little girl, I advise you to tell the truth. The Hammer King was so badly injured, how could he just recover? It seems a little too fast, isn't it?"

"What? Do you mean that the old man with the hammer's injury shouldn't heal? The injury should remain?" asked the little witch.

"That's not what I meant. I just want to say that your words are not credible! The injury on the hand of a strong man like Hammer Emperor is so serious that it will take at least a year or two for him to recover. But you say that Hammer Emperor has recovered. Where is the evidence? If you show us the evidence that Hammer Emperor has recovered, we will choose to believe you!" said the man.

"Evidence? What evidence do you want? I don't have any evidence. What happened to the old man with the hammer is not something I can know. I only know that he has recovered almost completely, that's all." The little witch said lightly.

"Haha, without evidence, I don't think you can produce it. After all, the Hammer King has already been murdered by you, and you've hidden it somewhere!"

When that person said this, even Gu Yuan frowned!

"What did you say?" The little witch narrowed her eyes, and the spiritual energy in her body began to circulate slowly.

"Hehe, did I guess it right? Are you getting nervous? You girl, you have such a wicked ambition! The Hammer Emperor raised you with great difficulty, but I never thought you would take advantage of his serious injury to attack him, just for the treasures on his body! Do you dare let us check the space ring in your hand now? I just said that anything related to the Hammer Emperor must be in your ring! You have embezzled all of these things! You killed the Hammer Emperor just for these things!"

This person stared at me and spoke word by word, which made Gu Yuan and the little witch stunned.

"Is this guy...sick in the brain?" Gu Yuan murmured.

"I think he's looking for death!"

The death of Old Man Hammer has always been a painful sight in the little witch's heart. She never expected that someone would dare to fabricate such a lie to slander her.

"Girl, wait a moment! See what tricks they have up their sleeves and let them use them all. Otherwise, if you act rashly, it will only cause panic. Let them finish talking, and they will definitely find a way to occupy this place. Then you can just get rid of the people who need to be cleaned out with justification!" Gu Yuan stood beside the little witch and said in an extremely weak voice.

The little witch exhaled, and the coldness on her face gradually subsided. "You're right! Then I'll let him live a little longer!"

"Everyone, that wild girl is silent! She must be feeling guilty! She must have taken advantage of the time when the Hammer Emperor was seriously injured to kill the Hammer Emperor, otherwise it would be impossible for the Hammer Emperor not to appear. As for what she said, do you think it is possible? The injury suffered by the Hammer Emperor was very fatal. I think you all knew about it that day. It is impossible for him to recover just like that!" The man said with his eyes wide open.

"Do you have anything like that to say?"

The little witch looked at the others and asked calmly.

"Where are the Hammer King's men?"

Monk Huiming stood up and asked the little witch.

"I just said that!"

Monk Huiming nodded, did not refute, and retreated.

"What about you? If you have anything you want to ask or say, come together." The little witch said again.

"Hmph! I think the Hammer Emperor is gone, right? Otherwise, how could you go out so confidently? Everyone has seen that the Hammer Emperor was injured. It's impossible for him to recover so quickly. So we now have reason to suspect that you had a hand on the Hammer Emperor. Please provide us with evidence and an explanation. Either let us see the Hammer Emperor, or let us check your space ring. If you were the one who killed the Hammer Emperor, then your space ring must have the one on the Hammer Emperor! The Hammer Emperor's life savings should all be in there. There's no way you wouldn't take it."
