Wang Ci's words instantly enlightened everyone.

Feng Guang panicked, "Mother, what are you saying? Qi Chang'an would never be the one to harm Third Senior Brother!"

“Feng Guang, anything is possible before there is evidence.” Wang Ci patted Feng Guang’s head, her eyes filled with sighs and helplessness. She could tell that Feng Guang’s feelings for Qi Chang’an were not ordinary, which was not a good thing in her eyes.

"Qi Chang'an, say something!" Feng Guang said impatiently to Qi Chang'an again. She was very anxious. If Qi Chang'an was found to be the murderer, everyone here was a group of self-serving people who wanted to gain fame and fortune. They would definitely attack him.

The real culprit, Ling Jiusheng, the leader of the demonic sect, would then be able to escape during the chaos.

Qi Chang'an smiled calmly and said, "Why is Feng Guang in such a hurry?"

"Nonsense!" Feng Guang stamped his foot. "You can't be hurt!"

Qi Chang'an smiled happily and said softly, "Don't rush, Madam Xia is right. Before there is evidence, anything is possible."

“I see…” Sun Yuanshan seemed to have figured something out, and he bravely voiced his speculation, “This soft sword was indeed thrown by Qi Chang’an. He carved his name on the sword so that we would be the first to rule him out. Young Master Wanting’s martial arts skills are not low, yet he was so easily ambushed. It must be because he did not expect that Qi Chang’an, the Great Alliance Leader Qi, would actually want to take his life.”

"Hey! You old scoundrel, what are you imagining?!" Feng Guang shouted, hands on her hips, completely lacking any ladylike demeanor. "You're saying Qi Chang'an wants to kill my senior brother? He has no grudge against my senior brother, so why would he do such a thing?"

"The reason is as simple as it sounds," Sun Yuanshan said, stroking his beard. "Our Alliance Leader Qi has fallen for Miss Xia of the Hidden Military Academy, but Miss Xia only loves her senior brother. In order to win her heart, our upright and selfless Alliance Leader Qi came up with this plan to frame someone else. In the end, Young Master Wanxuan will become the murderer, and the proud Miss Xia will naturally fall for someone else. After all... Miss Xia is still a naive young girl, so it's normal for her to fall for someone else."

Feng Guangqi's face turned bright red.

Suddenly, everyone saw a flash of cold light as the long sword grazed Sun Yuanshan's neck and flew past before embedding itself in a pillar of the main hall.

It turned out that Qi Chang'an had drawn the sword of one of his disciples. The movement was so smooth and fast that it was impossible to blink.

Sun Yuanshan had a small cut on his neck, from which a little blood flowed, and a strand of his hair was cut off and fell to the ground. Sun Yuanshan's legs were weak, and it was easy to imagine that if the sword had been just a little bit off, he would have died.

"Sect Leader Sun..." Qi Chang'an remained standing still, his smiling eyes filled with a chilling intent that made it hard to breathe. "Please be careful not to say the wrong thing, otherwise... I won't be able to help but shut you up."

Qi Chang'an has a good temper, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have one.

Sun Yuanshan was not popular, so when Qi Chang'an did this, the others didn't think anything was wrong. Many people wanted to teach Sun Yuanshan a lesson, but most of them didn't have the strength or the courage to break the rules. Some mocked him, while others secretly thought it was a good thing. Sun Yuanshan still didn't dare to move.

He was afraid that if he moved, his legs would give way and he would kneel down.
