Chapter 165 The Murderer Is Someone Else



"Hmph, you think I'm talking nonsense? Why don't you ask the sect leader and the others what they did back then?"

Lin Sheng clenched his fists, seemingly trying his best to control his anger.

"Lin Sheng, isn't there some misunderstanding here...?"

"Yes, yes, how could a sect possibly do something like murdering your entire family? Are you mistaken?"

"Calm down first. We're all from the same sect, we can talk things over..."

"Hmph, negotiate? When my parents were dying, did you give them a chance? They were just sweeping the yard when they accidentally knocked over the stone shelf, and things fell out. But what about you?"

"Without even distinguishing right from wrong, they accused them of theft and beat my defenseless parents to death!"

"My parents were loyal to the sect their whole lives and never did anything wrong. That day, they simply knocked over a shelf by accident and lost their lives."

"And the person who issued this order is you—"

"Bi Hui!"

Lin Sheng pointed his finger directly at Bi Hui.

"They killed my parents on your orders!"

...

"Is what Lin Sheng said true? Did Sect Leader Bi really kill his parents?"

"If that's the case, then it's understandable why he would do something like that..."

"Sect Leader Bi isn't that kind of person, is he? We can't just listen to what others say..."

"That's right, let's ask the sect leader what happened first!"

...

"Sect Master, what exactly is going on? Is what Lin Sheng said true?"

"Yes, Sect Master, is it really true, as he said, that you ordered the killing of his parents?"

...

Before Bi Hui could speak, Chang'an, who had previously discovered the black particles, urgently said:

"How...how can you say that about the sect leader...the sect leader isn't that kind of person."

He was fine when he didn't speak, but as soon as he did, Lin Sheng's gaze turned to him.

"I have endured for many years. Within the sect, I had no opportunity to act, but here, with the help of this natural force, I could easily send you all away from this world. Who would have thought..."

He looked toward Chang'an, his sharp eyes seeming to want to tear him apart.

"You suddenly appeared out of nowhere. You're usually so unremarkable, and don't seem to have any special skills, but now you've actually figured it out. Ha. How laughable..."

"This...is your name Lin Sheng, right?"

Seeing the situation becoming increasingly dire, Ling stepped forward and grabbed Lin Sheng's wrist.

What are you doing?

Lin Sheng instinctively tried to break free, but upon turning his head and seeing that it was zero, he shook his hand and said:

“You are not a member of the Daoguang Sect, this matter has nothing to do with you, don’t meddle in other people’s business.”

"Although I am not a member of your sect, I am a friend of your sect leader, Master Bi."

Ling Chaobi nodded and continued:

“I don’t know what happened between you, but after spending these past few days with you, I can tell that your sect leader is a bad person. He would never do something like killing one’s parents. There might be other hidden reasons behind this. Besides…”

"If I'm not mistaken, you probably aren't 100% certain that your parents were killed by Emperor Daoguang, are you?"

"this……"

After hearing what Ling said, Lin Sheng also began to hesitate.

He hadn't actually seen it with his own eyes; he'd only heard it from that person, but he was willing to believe him.

Just as he expected, Lin Sheng's suspicion of Bi Hui wasn't entirely certain, which meant there was likely more to the story...

Zero already had an idea in mind.

He stepped forward and reassured them:

"Lin Sheng, since you've been enduring this for so many years to avenge your parents, you must want to find the real killer who murdered them, right?"

"You mean... he's not the murderer of my parents? That's impossible! Mingdaozi clearly told me that they were following this person's orders, there's no mistake, he wouldn't lie to me..."

Ming Daozi...

Zero naturally didn't know this person, but Bi Hui's expression suddenly changed.

Ling noticed Bi Hui's change and knew that this person must be the key to the problem.

He patted Lin Sheng on the shoulder and said softly:

"Don't get agitated. The Mingdaozi you mentioned is the one who told you who killed your parents?"

Lin Sheng nodded, and looking into Ling's serious eyes, he gradually calmed down.

For some reason, when he looked at Zero, he couldn't help but believe him.

"That day... I didn't see my parents return for a long time, so I ran to look for them. At the door, I met someone..."

"He gave me a mirror. I didn't know what the mirror was, but I saw the entire process of my parents' murder in it. And the murderer was Sect Leader Bi..."

“At that time, I wanted to avenge my parents, but he persuaded me not to, saying that I was no match for him at the time.”

"So, I endured for many years, joined a sect, and studied hard, just so that one day I could avenge my parents with my own hands."

After he finished speaking, he stared intently at Bi Hui.

In his view, Bi Hui's silence must be because he felt guilty and dared not respond.

But Bi Hui suddenly turned around, looked at Lin Sheng, and said calmly:

"You really trust a stranger like that?"

Lin Sheng replied subconsciously:

“He’s not a stranger. He’s also a member of the Daoguang Sect. He said he knew my parents and happened to witness what happened that day, so he recorded it with a mirror. Besides… he wouldn’t stoop so low as to slander the sect leader, would he?”

"What if he had already harbored thoughts of betraying the sect from the beginning?"

As soon as Bi Hui finished speaking, Lin Sheng's heart trembled.

Bi Hui continued:
