At this moment, Wu Jianye was extremely high-spirited. He shouted these words in a resounding voice, making a fatal accusation against Su Chen. He was filled with pride and felt like the protagonist of the world.
As soon as he said this, the sensation caused by the scene was no less than dropping a bomb.
For a moment, everyone's expression changed, including the dozen or so dignitaries who supported Su Chen. Their expressions also changed drastically at this moment, and they looked at Su Chen subconsciously.
If Su Chen is really the mastermind behind this Dragon Tiger Hunting Ground incident, then the nature of the whole incident will be different.
"That's impossible! Su Chen has been with me since he entered the Dragon and Tiger Hunting Grounds. He has no time to kill anyone!"
Xiao Caiyin shouted out immediately, and her reaction was very intense.
When she heard that Su Chen already had a girlfriend, she felt really bad and lost in thought. But now she heard Wu Jianye's words and came back to her senses in an instant.
She immediately understood what Wu Jianye meant. If Su Chen was really arrested for the murder at the Dragon and Tiger Hunting Grounds, he would face death. There was no other option!
This is not an ordinary murder case. The victim is a powerful and influential person. Even if Su Chen is a warrior at the level of Heaven and Man, there is no possibility of survival.
She was also certain that Su Chen was definitely not the murderer, because she was with Su Chen the whole time, and she and Zhu Xingyuan were witnesses.
This is clearly a blatant frame-up!
Xiao Caiyin's words awakened the powerful people, and they all nodded in agreement.
"That's right, Mr. Xiao is right. Grandmaster Su didn't go into the Dragon and Tiger Hunting Ground alone. He didn't have the chance to kill anyone."
"And Grandmaster Su reunited with us very quickly. He was always in our sight. Could it be that he had clones to commit crimes?"
"This is ridiculous. Master Su was perfectly fine, so why would he kill someone? He had no motive at all."
"I choose to believe Master Su. If he is really the mastermind behind the Dragon Tiger Hunting Grounds, why would he save us?"
"That's a bunch of nonsense. If Su Chen is the main culprit, why is he still staying here, waiting for you to arrest him?"
Many powerful people began to defend Su Chen, among whom Xiao Caiyin and Zhu Xingyuan were the most excited.
Wu Jianye only raised the corners of his mouth slightly in response to this situation. He was not anxious at all. Instead, he narrowed his eyes and said to Xiao Caiyin in a sinister tone, "Miss Xiao, according to you, you are also Su Chen's accomplice?"
When Xiao Caiyin heard this, her expression suddenly changed.
She wanted to say something else, but Xiao Yuanjia at the side immediately pulled her aside and signaled to her not to act rashly.
Now the officials have come to the door with such force, which means that they must have evidence of Su Chen's crime.
Regardless of whether the evidence is true or not, the sensible approach is not to confront the authorities and wait for changes to occur.
Xiao Caiyin was very smart, she naturally knew what her father meant, but she really didn't want to see Su Chen being framed.
Then, Wu Jianye glanced at the other dignitaries and said with a forced smile, "Or do you also want to become Su Chen's accomplice?"
When the other dignitaries heard this, their faces immediately turned very ugly.
How could they not see the threat posed by Wu Jianye? With their power, if they worked together, they would naturally not be too afraid.
But the key point now was that the official arrival was too sudden. They had no information and no idea who was behind this matter, or whether it was someone they couldn't afford to offend. So for a while, they didn't dare to act rashly.
It is true that they are grateful to Su Chen, but that does not mean they will do anything for Su Chen.
So, they all chose to remain silent for a while.
When Wu Jianye saw this situation, the smile on his face became even more arrogant and rebellious, and his whole body appeared in a state of madness.
He felt so happy when he saw Su Chen being deserted by everyone.
"Why, no one dares to testify for him now? It seems that your relationship is not as strong as you thought."
Wu Jianye said this jokingly.
Just as he finished speaking, a voice rang out, and Zhu Xingyuan stood up, his face flushed as he said, "I'll testify for Su Chen! I've been with him since before we entered the Dragon and Tiger Hunting Grounds, and I didn't see him kill anyone! You must be mistaken!"
Zhu Xingyuan's high-pitched words seemed so deafening in the quiet atmosphere.
Wu Jianye's expression turned ugly. Zhu Xingyuan's words were basically a slap in his face!
"You f*cking want to die with Su Chen, right? Then I'll grant your wish!" Wu Jianye waved his hand, his expression becoming ferocious as he ordered the captain, "Torture this guy together!"
The captain showed a bit of helplessness on his face. Although Wu Jianye was the son of the city lord, he was not an official after all. Without an official position, he had no power to interfere in this case, let alone the qualifications to command them.
If it were anyone else, the captain would have turned his back on him. But this person was Wu Jianye, and he was unhappy but had no choice but to cough twice, pretending not to hear Wu Jianye's words. Then he took out the arrest warrant and said to Su Chen, "Su Chen, you are suspected of murder. This is your arrest warrant. Execute immediately!"
As he finished speaking, his special police began to take action and walked over to arrest Su Chen.
Su Chen then said, "Officer, I'd like to ask, what specific murder did I commit and who did I kill?"
Since Wu Jianye and others appeared, Su Chen has remained silent and did not speak, causing many people to ignore him, and some even thought he was scared silly.
Now that he spoke, people noticed him and found that there was no panic on his face. He seemed particularly calm, as if he was not facing the crisis of being arrested, but had just encountered a very ordinary little thing.
Wu Jianye immediately retorted, "Humph! Are you deaf? Didn't you hear what I just said? We already have evidence that you killed someone in the Dragon and Tiger Hunting Grounds. You're dead this time!"
He spoke loudly, with the look of a smug villain written all over his face.
However, Su Chen didn't even look at him and ignored him directly, still looking at the captain indifferently, as if Wu Jianye was just a fly.
Wu Jianye felt very unhappy with his disregard, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching.
He was clearly in an absolute advantage, yet Su Chen still dared to ignore him? Damn it! Damn it!
"Old Li! Why are you still wasting time talking to him? Just torture him. If he dares to resist, shoot him to death and turn him into a hornet's nest!" Wu Jianye roared ferociously. He was fed up with Su Chen's pretentious look and wished he could kill Su Chen right away!
