Chapter 85 I will never admit to doing something I didn't do.



Something really big must have happened.

Otherwise, Wan Jiao wouldn't have done that!

"Xiao Wan, you might as well just say what you have to say."

Wan Jiao stared at Amber without saying a word. It wasn't that she didn't want to speak, but rather that she was seriously considering where to begin.

This unexpected display of Wan Jiao's charm led Amber to misunderstand. After a moment's thought, he raised his left hand, holding up three fingers, and declared firmly, "I, Amber, swear to the heavens that no 'third party' will know what Wan Jiao and I have discussed today. If I break this oath, may I, Amber, die a horrible death and never be reborn..."

The oath made by a esoteric master to the Heavenly Dao is the highest oath in the esoteric world; if it is broken, the Heavenly Dao will immediately enforce it.

Wan Jiao frowned. "Director An, I actually..."

Amber, being open-minded, urged Wan Jiao, "Little Wan, since the situation is urgent, don't say anything useless."

At this moment, Amber's image in Wan Jiao's heart became much more impressive.

He may not be the most powerful sorcerer, nor the most prestigious, but he deserves everyone's respect because he is sincere and dedicated to serving all the people of Sheng Kingdom.

"Director An, do you know Lu Jiuxing, the son of that important figure?"

Upon hearing Wan Jiao's words, Amber's expression immediately darkened several degrees. He followed up by asking, "Xiao Wan, are you saying that the ice crystal ring incident is related to Lu Jiuxing?"

“It wasn’t just the Ice Crystal Ring; the explosion of Ye Jin’s car was also caused by Lu Jiuxing hiring someone to kill her.” After saying that, as if afraid that Amber wouldn’t believe her, Wan Jiao added again, “Director An, I have evidence.”

Amber was horrified, and her gaze immediately turned to the outside of the barrier, lost in thought.

Wan Jiao had a vague guess in her heart, and asked again, "Director An, have you thought of something?"

If it were someone else asking, Anbo would not say, but... Wanjiao is not someone else. He met her beautiful eyes and said, word by word, "Lu Jiuxing was a very kind child when he was young. He should have been like his father, upright and dedicated to the strength of our Sheng Kingdom. It's a pity that he had a wicked mother."

Fortune telling and face reading require that the person's birth chart and appearance remain unchanged. However, Lu Jiuxing's appearance and birth chart have clearly changed, so Wan Jiao couldn't discern anything about him. Naturally, she knew nothing about him or his mother!

Once Amber had started, Wan Jiao listened very attentively. Seeing her like this, he couldn't help but elaborate.

"Lu Jiuxing's mother, Baili Ruguo, was that man's third wife. He already had two older brothers, both of whom displayed extraordinary intelligence at a young age. When Lu Jiuxing was three years old, he was still of average talent, and Baili Ruguo became anxious. She invited the old chairman to perform a divination for him, but unfortunately, it didn't suit her wishes. Later..."

When it came to the past of the wife and children of the most powerful man in the Sheng Kingdom, Amber was hesitant and hesitated to speak.

Wan Jiao pinched her fingertips, then raised her voice, "Director An, when Lu Jiuxing was three years old, wasn't that eighteen years ago?"

Amber nodded. "Yes, Xiao Wan, do you know something?"

Wan Jiao's unresolved guesses all found their definitive answers at that moment. She looked at Amber, her expression and tone more serious than ever before.

"Director An, eighteen years ago, someone stole Ye Jin's destiny." After a pause, Wan Jiao decided to reveal her identity. "If my master hadn't saved Ye Jin back then and arranged for him to get engaged to me, he would have died long ago."

"Engaged?" Amber was utterly bewildered. "Xiao Wan, so you're the Commander's newlywed wife?"

Wan Jiao hummed in agreement, then forcefully steered the conversation toward the "main topic," preventing it from veering off course. "After Ye Jin's car accident, I unexpectedly learned that Lu Jiuxing was the one who hired someone to kill him. I also saw the same purple aura on him as on Ye Jin. I am certain that the person who stole Ye Jin's destiny back then was Lu Jiuxing."

"Director An, as far as I know, stealing someone else's destiny is a serious matter in the entire field of metaphysics..."

Having said all that, what else could Amber not understand?

He said that back then, Chairman Lan personally stated that Lu Jiuxing didn't have "that destiny," nor did he possess any aura of purple energy to aspire to "that position." So how could they have met again later...?

It turns out that Baili Rugo went so far as to have someone steal another person's destiny to change Lu Jiuxing's fate in order to elevate her son to power...

No wonder I always felt a strange feeling when I saw Ye Jin, but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. It turns out there was something wrong with his destiny.

He was right. According to Ye Jin's destiny, he should have reached "that position," so why has he been stuck in the position of the Three Bacteria Commander for so many years?

"Xiao Wan, do you have someone you suspect?"

Wan Jiao nodded firmly and said three words to Amber.

“Impossible.” Amber shook her head vigorously after hearing this. “Xiao Wan, you must be mistaken.”

Wan Jiao: "Director An, this ice crystal ring was also his doing. If you don't believe me, we can go to the Xuanmen Association and find out!"

Amber knew Wan Jiao's abilities; she would never falsely accuse anyone without reason. But... it seemed they had no choice but to go to the Xuanmen Association.

The teleportation talisman was very convenient; in the blink of an eye, Wan Jiao and Amber appeared in President Lan's office.

At this moment, Chairman Lan was teaching his great-grandson Lan Qingyi and grandson-in-law Ning Jue how to draw talismans. When he saw Wan Jiao and the other two appear, he directly instructed Lan Qingyi and Ning Jue, "Practice on your own and don't be lazy. I will check on you later."

Before he could finish speaking, President Lan had already walked up to Wan Jiao and An Bo. Just as he was about to speak, Wan Jiao channeled her spiritual energy into her fingertips, creating a barrier to isolate the outside world. She went straight to the point, calling President Lan by his full name, and said, "Lan Xiubai, you owe me an explanation about the Ice Crystal Ring."

Chairman Lan was completely baffled.

Ice crystal ring?

Isn't that a magical artifact that's always been kept in the Special Security Bureau's artifact vault? If you want an explanation, you should ask Amber, why are you asking him?

"Miss Wan, is there some misunderstanding between us?"

Wan Jiao knew that President Lan wouldn't admit it so easily, so she waved her hand and threw out the evidence. Her "tracking" spell pointed directly at President Lan's room.

"Lan Xiubai, is there anything else you want to say?"

Amber's expression shifted complexly as she looked at the evidence Wan Jiao presented. "Old Chairman? What's the point of all this?"

President Lan: "..."

I haven't done anything wrong, yet you insist on labeling me. I'd like to ask you what the point is?

"I will never admit to something I didn't do." As Chairman Lan spoke, he raised his hand and scattered Wan Jiao's evidence in mid-air, while his words were firm and powerful: "I, Lan Xiubai, am over a hundred years old, and this is the worst I've ever been framed. I won't take the blame for such a huge mistake. Doesn't your Special Security Bureau claim to be able to solve any case? I'm waiting for you to clear my name."
