Because Shirin was present, the crow did not use magic to verify the truthfulness of Ning Feng's every word, but instead handed over the results of the verification to the props of the court.
This gave Ning Feng an opportunity to exploit the situation, so he first tentatively told a lie.
Li Tiandu committed suicide.
Then, after realizing that the other party had not immediately noticed, he changed his tune and began to refine his performance.
Finally, when signing the contract with that item, he said:
From my perspective... there's nothing false about these things.
In other words, Ning Feng believed that everything was as it was and there was no problem.
As for the truth, that's another matter, and it has nothing to do with him.
("Oh, actually, it doesn't need to be so complicated. Their contract isn't binding on you at all.")
In addition, Ning Feng also had the confidence to remain undetected because of the guarantee from the scoundrel Black Cat.
("After all, you're my contractor! What's wrong with ignoring them? Go ahead and play with your lies~")
Although Ariana said that, it never hurts to be more cautious. Ning Feng carefully completed his previous attempt without leaving any flaws.
"There were mostly no lies, but in the end he didn't just obediently let me kill him, and we had a fierce battle."
The massage didn't stop; Ning Feng helped Xilin relax the muscles in her shoulders, whispering:
"Then... I personally cut off his head and purified his body."
He personally ensured that his body was never recovered.
Shirin wanted to say something, but didn't know where to begin.
What's the difference?
"Is it really worth it for you to do all this?"
Is it worth taking such a big risk?
Is it worth it? Maybe...
Noticing Xilin's confusion, Ning Feng released his kneading hand, somewhat moved:
“He did make a mistake, and his merits and demerits cannot offset each other; I understand all of that.”
"As a Watcher, all I can do is make him pay the price he deserves."
"But, as someone who has received his kindness, I still hope that he can have a not-too-bad ending."
The hero of the past is dead; what appeared there before was merely a monster in his skin.
That's all.
The final verdict, a conclusion that may be insignificant to others, is of paramount importance to Li Tiandu.
Do you know what his last words to me were?
With a slight headache, Ning Feng smiled helplessly, mimicking Li Tiandu's tone at the time, and whispered in his ear:
"You've grown up..."
A cunning fellow.
Logically speaking, Ning Feng should let things develop as they will, distance himself from the trial, and avoid any connection with the court.
But he did it anyway, without much hesitation.
This was the last thing Ning Feng did for Li Tiandu, as a son of man, for that final sentence.
After saying that, Ning Feng fell into a daze and didn't speak, and Xilin was also silent.
She found that she always remained silent when facing Ning Feng.
I don't know what to say.
Having lost her family at a young age, Xilin had never experienced such a cruel choice and couldn't distinguish whether Ning Feng's actions were right or wrong.
However, Ning Feng's approach may have been wrong, but it made Xilin more accepting of it.
An ordinary person with flaws is more acceptable and more real than a perfect moral exemplar.
Moreover, from Ning Feng's explanation, Xilin sensed the pain he was masking with rationality.
She felt a pang of sympathy.
After hesitating for a moment, Xilin did not turn around, but instead raised her hand and gently grasped Ning Feng's hand that was resting on her shoulder.
It was as if they wanted to share some of their strength with him.
Startled by Xilin's movement, Ning Feng paused for a moment, then gently returned her grip.
"……Thanks."
Because of her tacit approval, and because she never asked any further questions.
Tentatively, Ning Feng leaned down and gently hugged Xilin from behind.
Ning Feng's slow movements gave Xilin a lot of time to react, but after hesitating for a moment, Xilin acquiesced to his actions.
It was just a hug anyway, and it's not a big deal now.
Many things become simple once you've done it the first time.
In the quiet space, neither of them spoke, silently feeling each other's breath, their hearts filled with peace.
At first it was fine, but after a while, Ning Feng keenly noticed that Xilin's heartbeat and breathing had increased slightly.
Ning Feng chuckled softly, another idea forming in his mind...
Mobilizing their power, behind Ning Feng, silver-gray wings constructed of spiritual energy unfolded and stretched out to their fullest extent.
Such energy fluctuations naturally did not escape Shirin's notice. She awoke from her comfortable state and immediately became aware of what was happening behind her, and then...
I was completely stunned.
Wings!?
Shocked by the sudden change, Shirin felt genuinely lost.
This feeling... isn't it from the angelic lineage?
But isn't he clearly from the demon lineage?
What's this……
Then, the wings closed forward, enveloping and covering Ning Feng and Xi Lin's bodies.
"this……"
I'm sorry.
Many things become simple once you've done it the first time.
"What did you say... um!"
