The Earl of Pingyang informed Shen Qian of their identities and then gave him a final, concerned reminder.
Shen Qian then understood why the two men were looking at him so unfriendly. In the sixth heaven, Shen Qian fought a great battle with the two men in front of everyone, which not only forced Wu Yi to use his life-saving trump card, but also made Qin Xiaoke take out 1 billion martial arts resources to save her life.
Now that both of them have died, he is indeed highly suspicious.
I hadn't thought about it carefully before, but now that I'm sinking in, I'm a little alarmed.
If he had never entered the river of time, and everything followed the original trajectory, then even in the best-case scenario, he would only survive alone before sinking.
At that time, he will face not only the wrath of the Qin Guangwang family and the Marquis of Liegu, but also the wrath of the Heavenly Swordsman, the Marquis of Yidao, and the Earl of Qianhuan...
Just thinking about that situation made Shen Qian's scalp tingle; he could only say that Fang Fan's calculations were extremely accurate.
At that point, aside from being subjected to the search of his soul by kings and nobles, Shen Qian really has no way to clear his name.
"By the way, Principal, I also sensed a very strong hostility just now, but it wasn't from the Marquis of Fierce Bones and the Qin Guang family you mentioned..."
Although Qin Zhaohou and Lieguhou were watching him, Shen Qian felt much safer standing next to Pingyangbo. He remembered what had just happened and asked.
"The Duke of Tianning has also arrived."
The Earl of Pingyang glanced at Shen Qian with a complicated expression and transmitted his voice.
He understood immediately before sinking in, and became even more vigilant.
Even though the events in the Spirit Witch World had nothing to do with him later, Consort Ning did indeed die at his hands.
No wonder the Earl of Pingyang had such a complicated look in his eyes. The kings and nobles who appeared here, whether directly or indirectly, were all related to him to some extent. As a mere newbie in the world of martial arts and sea, he probably only had this kind of "ability" before he was born.
Just as he was about to ask something more before sinking, he subconsciously raised his head and looked at Wu Wei, who had suddenly appeared high in the sky, drawn by the energy.
The princes and nobles, who were questioning their own disciples, also quieted down. Wu Wei's expression was serious, and he appeared as if he were the Minister of Martial Arts, which earned him everyone's respect.
"An unexpected incident has occurred on the Nine Heavens Battlefield. All ten members of the Nine Heavens Ranking have gone missing. Qin Xiaoke and seven others have appeared here. In order to uncover the truth, I will initiate the inquiry. All the kings and nobles may supervise this process."
Wu Wei's voice wasn't loud, but it resonated in everyone's hearts.
"Can."
No objection.
In this situation, only kings and nobles are qualified to speak. Since King Zhou Yi is not going to speak, Wu Wei, as the head of the martial arts department, is the most suitable person to do so.
After obtaining the consent of all the nobles, Wu Wei looked at Lin Sanmo and the others, "Go back to your original positions."
After Lin Sanmo and the others gathered, the Earl of Pingyang also withdrew, leaving only seven people in the sight of the kings and nobles.
"What happened after you entered the Seventh Heaven Gate?"
Wu Wei asked, "There must be no concealment, and you must answer at the same time."
The seven people exchanged glances and then began to speak.
"We were transported to a place called the Spirit Witch World..."
"Someone disguised themselves as the person who sank the ship and attacked us..."
“Shen Qian told us the truth. Later, we fought against the Great Protector of the Spirit Witch Clan…”
Under Wu Wei's gaze, the seven people spoke without hesitation.
The voices of the seven people speaking at once were incredibly chaotic, and each of them spoke extremely fast. For martial artists below the Mountain and Sea realm, it would be very difficult to understand what the seven people were saying. However, those present were all extraordinary individuals, and with the help of their powerful mental strength, they were able to fully grasp everything the seven people were saying.
As the seven described the scene, silence fell. Although everyone showed expressions of shock, no one dared to interrupt them due to Wu Wei's imposing presence.
"...Later we entered the Nine Kings' Secret Realm, and each of us received the inheritance of the first Nine Kings, and then we came out."
After a few minutes, when Mu Ziyan finished speaking, the seven people's stories finally came to an end.
Only when Wu Wei fell into deep thought did the gasps of surprise erupt from the crowd.
"This Spirit Witch Clan must be a branch of the Witch Clan. How dare they scheme against my human race like this! Hmph, I remember there are also Spirit Witch Clan members behind a 'gate' in the Second Northwest Province. I will personally wipe them out later!"
"Fang Fan, a genius of the human race, actually colluded with the Spirit Witch Clan..."
"Gentlemen, that's not the point. The point is, how did the Seven Heavens Gate become a teleportation portal to the Spirit Witch World? The Nine Heavens Battlefield was clearly built by kings and nobles, could it be..."
"That's not the point, is it? The point is, how could those seven possibly survive in the Spirit Witch World? The Great Protector of the Spirit Witch Clan has the cultivation of the eighth level of the Mountain and Sea Realm, plus the Refining World Array and Fang Fan, who is at the seventh level of the Mountain and Sea Realm. How could they possibly resist?"
"Didn't you hear that Shen Qian took action and resolved everything...?"
"Isn't this a bit too exaggerated? Does Shen Qian really have this ability?"
The martial artists below were arguing endlessly, some with fear, some with anger, and some with doubt.
In contrast, there was complete silence high in the sky.
The kings and nobles were generally more composed, but many of them still had fluctuating expressions. However, the amount of information provided by the seven was so vast that even kings and nobles needed time to process it.
Or perhaps, kings and nobles would be more cautious and would not easily comment before fully understanding the whole situation.
However, not every king or noble had such reservations. The hot-tempered Marquis Zhao of Qin was the first to speak up: "So, according to your logic, Qin Xiaoke actually died at the hands of Fang Fan, or rather, at the hands of the Spirit Witch Clan?"
