Yu Jingya was so angry that her face turned red and her chest heaved violently. Just as she was about to retort, Liu Feng grabbed her hand and gave her a reassuring look, telling her not to be impulsive.
Then, he stepped forward, slowly scanning the entire room. His gaze was as cold and sharp as a knife, and his voice was deep and sinister: "Mo Shengjie, do you think you can slander me with such a clumsy frame-up?"
He suddenly laughed, his voice leisurely, yet sending a chill down one's spine: "Ridiculous! Your Laoshan Sect's most prized treasure could be stolen so easily. If it's really that worthless, then your Laoshan Sect doesn't need to stand in the cultivation world!"
Upon hearing this, the initially indignant crowd paused slightly, realizing that there was some truth to it. If even the sect's most precious treasures couldn't be properly guarded, wouldn't the reputation of the Laoshan Sect be a joke?
Mo Shengjie's face suddenly darkened, and a sinister glint flashed in his eyes. However, he quickly composed himself, snorted coldly, and was about to launch another attack when a faint laugh came from behind him.
"Since we have both witnesses and physical evidence, why don't we let the Celestial Surveillance Bureau investigate and find out who put the Cloud Sea Pearl in my junior uncle's room and when?" Tong Miao suggested.
Only then did everyone remember that Liu Feng was a disciple of Wudang, and was by no means a mere cat or dog to be manipulated.
Moreover, if this farce is ultimately proven to be a miscarriage of justice, then the Laoshan Sect will likely lose all face.
Zhao Xuan's eyes lit up slightly, and he nodded, saying, "That's right. Since Fellow Daoist Liu denies it, let the facts speak for themselves."
Fan Yao frowned slightly, while Mo Shengjie hesitated, his eyes growing colder.
At this moment, Sun Yi also said in a deep voice: "Since the Celestial Surveillance Bureau is here, it should uphold justice. The Cloud Sea Pearl is a top-grade spiritual object, containing unique spiritual energy. We can use the 'Spiritual Energy Tracing Technique' to trace its last storage time and transportation traces."
After saying this, he painfully took out a pale gold talisman, flicked it with his fingertips, and the talisman transformed into a stream of light, falling into the brocade box.
In an instant, the Cloud Sea Pearl trembled slightly, and wisps of light blue spiritual energy appeared on its surface. Then, under the astonished gazes of the crowd, the spiritual energy gradually spread and transformed into illusory images.
In the video, a hand slowly emerges, quietly reaches out, takes the Cloud Sea Pearl, and then silently places it into a room!
Just as the owner of that hand was about to appear clearly, the image suddenly distorted, as if an invisible and powerful force had suddenly interfered. The next moment, the image shattered and vanished completely!
"What's going on?" Sun Yi frowned deeply and quickly cast the spell again. However, no matter how much spiritual power he activated, the Tracing Source Technique could not reproduce a clearer image.
After a moment, he slowly withdrew his hand, his gaze deep and unfathomable, and said in a deep voice, "Someone has tampered with things and concealed the key traces."
These words immediately caused an uproar in the main hall!
"Did someone really frame me on purpose?"
"What a clever scheme! They even managed to block the Spiritual Aura Tracing Technique. To be able to do this, this person's cultivation level must be quite high!"
The cultivators who had initially harbored doubts about Liu Feng now all showed hesitation, pondering the strangeness of the matter.
Mo Shengjie's expression changed slightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, but in an instant, he regained his composure and sneered, "Hmph, the incompleteness of the Origin Tracing Technique does not mean that he is innocent. Perhaps this was his scheme to deliberately use this to confuse the public."
As soon as he finished speaking, some people in the room whispered among themselves: "Young Master Mo has a point, but who blocked the Origin Tracing Technique?"
However, many people have expressed doubts about Mo Shengjie's claims.
After all, Liu Feng remained calm and composed throughout, while Mo Shengjie's words and actions appeared aggressive and even somewhat guilty.
