Chapter 13 Quickly Transmigrate! Conquer the Handsome Demon King (19)
Pushing open the heavy wooden door, a murderous aura rushed over. A dozen elders sat on both sides with solemn expressions, as if waiting for a trial.
I handed over the evidence I had, trying to get them to re-examine my case based on the facts.
However, reality gave me a heavy blow.
The elders took the evidence, glanced at it casually, and then put it back on the table with contempt and disdain on their faces.
What I saw in their eyes was not fairness and justice, but deep-rooted prejudice and distrust.
I tried hard to control my anger and tried to explain everything in a calm tone.
"Elder, these evidences are enough to prove my innocence!" I almost yelled, and my suppressed emotions finally exploded.
An old man with a white beard sneered, his tone was sarcastic, "Feng Ziang, stop making excuses here! You colluded with the demons, the evidence is solid, what else is there to say?"
I suddenly felt weak and had mixed feelings.
These elders keep saying that they want to uphold justice in the world of immortal cultivation, but they are so stubborn and unwilling to face the truth.
I argued with them, my voice became louder and louder, and my tone became more and more excited, but they remained indifferent, as if everything I said fell on deaf ears.
The argument lasted for a long time, and I felt my throat dry and my body exhausted.
I was facing this group of stubborn old men alone, and the pressure in my heart surged like a tidal wave. The tension was like an invisible hand tightly strangling my throat, making it difficult to breathe.
At this moment, I noticed a familiar piece of black cloth under the sleeve of an elder. It was clearly...
I was about to ask a question when the elder suddenly gave me a weird smile. He stood up slowly, his eyes sinister and his voice hoarse, "Feng Ziang, you..."
Just as he was about to open his mouth, the door of the meeting room was blasted open by a powerful demonic energy.
The smoke cleared and Liang Xu appeared at the door. He was surrounded by a black demonic aura. His cold eyes swept over everyone present and finally fell on me. His eyes softened instantly.
He walked straight up to me, ignoring the shocked looks of the elders around him, took out a scroll from his arms, and threw it in front of an elder.
"Take a look," Liang Xu's voice was deep and powerful, "This is the truth."
I picked up the scroll, unfolded it, and my pupils suddenly contracted.
The scroll contains the evidence of those elders who slandered me for colluding with the demons and having secret dealings with another demon force!
My heart started pounding, and an indescribable excitement and excitement surged in my heart.
I raised my head suddenly and looked at the elders. Their faces were full of shock, panic, disbelief, and deep fear.
I took a deep breath, suppressed the excitement in my heart, pointed at the contents on the scroll, and said word by word: "Elders, now, what else do you have to say?" My voice was not loud, but it echoed in the meeting room with an unquestionable power.
The elders looked at each other with flickering eyes, but no one dared to refute.
I sneered in my heart and continued, "I, Feng Ziang, have always been upright and have never done anything to let down the world of immortal cultivation! On the contrary, you have colluded with the demons and framed your fellow disciples. You deserve to be punished!"
As soon as I finished speaking, the originally quiet meeting room suddenly exploded. The elders began to blame each other and shirk responsibility. The scene was in chaos.
As I looked at their panicked appearance, a sense of revenge arose in my heart.
I turned to look at Liang Xu. He was looking at me quietly with a hint of smile in his eyes.
I smiled at him, my heart filled with gratitude and love.
At this moment, a cold light flashed, and I subconsciously dodged to the side. A sharp sword flew past my cheek and embedded deeply into the wall behind me.
"Feng Ziang! Stop spreading lies and misleading people!" An angry voice sounded.
I turned around suddenly and saw a cultivator in black, holding a long sword, rushing towards me...
Liang Xu stood in front of me, black demonic energy surged, forming a barrier that completely neutralized the attacks of the man in black.
My heart tightened and I subconsciously grabbed Liang Xu's arm.
His hands were warm and strong, giving me a great sense of security.
"You don't know your own limitations." Liang Xu snorted coldly, and with a backhand palm, he knocked the man in black away.
However, this is just the beginning.
More men in black emerged from the darkness and surrounded us.
They were well-trained, coordinated well, and each of their moves was deadly. It was obvious that it was premeditated.
I felt a chill and my palms were sweating.
"Feng Ziang, be careful!" Liang Xu shouted in a low voice and protected me behind him.
I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself down.
Liang Xu taught me some defensive techniques from the demon world, and now is the time to put them to use.
I mobilized the spiritual power in my body and coordinated it with Liang Xu's demonic energy to barely resist the attack of the man in black.
The flash of swords and the shadow of swords, the devilish spirit is everywhere.
The surrounding buildings were shaken by the attack, with tiles and dust flying everywhere.
The onlookers screamed in terror and fled in all directions, and the entire meeting room was in chaos.
I felt dizzy and my ears were ringing, and I could hardly hear anything.
After an unknown amount of time, the battle finally ended.
The men in black were either dead or escaped, and the meeting room was in a mess.
I was sore all over and leaned against Liang Xu, panting, feeling like I had just experienced a nightmare.
Liang Xu stroked my hair gently, "Are you okay?"
I shook my head and looked up at him.
There was a little dust on his face, but it did not affect his handsomeness at all.
A warm feeling surged in my heart and I held his hand tightly.
The people around us looked at us with different expressions.
Surprise, doubt, confusion...
But more of it is an inexplicable feeling of being moved.
They may not understand the feelings between us, but they can feel the true love between us.
I took a deep breath and looked around.
Although this battle was brutal, it also made me more determined in my beliefs.
I know this is just the beginning, and there are more secrets behind the conspiracy waiting for me to uncover.
"Let's go." I took Liang Xu's hand and walked out of the meeting room.
"Where are you going?" Liang Xu asked me.
I stopped and looked back at the devastated meeting room. "Let's find the real mastermind." I paused and my eyes fell on an inconspicuous mark on the scroll in Liang Xu's hand. "Maybe, I know where to find him..."
I held Liang Xu's hand and followed the markings on the scroll all the way to the forbidden area in the back mountain.
The dense shadows of the trees blocked out the sun, and the sunlight struggled to penetrate through the gaps between the branches and leaves, casting mottled spots of light on the ground.
The air was filled with a damp and rotten smell that made people nauseous.
I felt a chill and involuntarily wrapped my clothes tighter.
Liang Xu also noticed something was wrong. He held my hand tightly and whispered, "Be careful."
We stepped into the forbidden area cautiously.
