If it weren't for the evidence Wan Jiao presented, Amber would have unconditionally believed Chairman Lan.
Unfortunately, the most frightening thing in this world is the possibility of "what if".
Amber looked at Chairman Lan, hesitated for a long time, and then whispered to him, "Chairman, making mistakes isn't scary, what's scary is..."
"I didn't do it." Chairman Lan was extremely confident, the kind of confidence that went too far. He interrupted Amber and said seriously, "Don't say that this is my territory. Even if we were in your Special Security Bureau's courtroom, I would still say the same thing."
The evidence is right there, yet they still won't admit it... Amber looked at President Lan with a rather complicated expression.
Looking at Wan Jiao again, she was sitting leisurely on the sofa with her hands folded, as if she hadn't come to ask Chairman Lan for an explanation at all.
Amber couldn't figure out what Wan Jiao was thinking.
But ever since he learned that she was Ye Jin's new wife and that Lu Jiuxing had stolen Ye Jin's destiny, he had been trembling with fear and felt very uneasy.
It is said that the calm before the storm is the most terrifying.
After all, Amber had been friends with Chairman Lan for many years and had always held him in the highest esteem. After much consideration, he decided to "save" the old chairman once again.
"Old Chairman, you knew about Lu Jiuxing stealing the Commander's destiny, didn't you?" Amber was very direct, without any beating around the bush. "Back then, you said yourself that Lu Jiuxing didn't have that destiny, but later he clearly..."
"Old Chairman, looking across the entire metaphysical world, besides you, no one else has the ability to switch the Commander's fate with Lu Jiuxing. You..."
President Lan had always felt that Lu Jiuxing's ability to "defy fate" was truly abnormal. However, he was not Wan Jiao after all, and did not have her "eagle eyes," so he could not see that Lu Jiuxing and Ye Jin's purple aura actually came from the same source.
Now, upon hearing Amber mention that Lu Jiuxing had stolen Ye Jin's destiny, he was utterly shocked. It took him a great deal of effort to calm himself down. "Amber, if you hadn't brought it up today, I probably would never have known that Lu Jiuxing had stolen someone's destiny, so how could it be my doing?"
Amber frowned. "President, I want to believe you too, but the evidence is overwhelming, I really..."
After hesitating for a few seconds, Amber suddenly had a flash of inspiration and suggested, "Old Chairman, since you insist that these things have nothing to do with you, can you provide evidence?"
This is also a headache for Chairman Lan.
Yes, he cannot prove himself.
If he could prove it himself, he would have presented the evidence long ago.
He sighed heavily. "As everyone knows, the residence of the Xuanmen Association's president contains many rare and unique manuals from the world of metaphysics. Since the Xuanmen Association was founded a thousand years ago, it has been protected by a barrier that no one but the president himself can enter..."
This matter is indeed an open secret.
Amber suddenly understood why Wan Jiao insisted that the matter was related to Chairman Lan. He didn't know what to say for a moment, so he could only shake his head.
After President Lan finished speaking, the entire barrier became so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Wan Jiao's gaze suddenly fell on him, and she asked meaningfully, "Lan Xiubai, if I can let you prove yourself, but you need to pay a small price, are you willing?"
President Lan met Wan Jiao's gaze in astonishment, and after a long pause, he replied firmly, "Miss Wan, I do."
"good!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Wan Jiao started rummaging through her canvas bag.
After searching for four or five minutes, she pulled out an extremely crumpled talisman and handed it to President Lan, saying, "Eat this."
Without hesitation, President Lan took the talisman and swallowed it.
Wan Jiao formed hand seals and chanted an ancient and complex incantation. After chanting for about thirty seconds, she ended with the word "敕" (chì), and her spiritual power entered President Lan's body.
A miraculous thing happened at that moment. Almost the instant Wan Jiao's spiritual power entered President Lan's body, he flew into the air and slowly closed his eyes.
Wan Jiao asked, "Lan Xiubai, did you help Lu Jiuxing steal his destiny from Ye Jin?"
President Lan replied, "No."
Wan Jiao asked again, "The ice crystal ring, was it you, or did you instruct someone to buy it through illegitimate means and give it to Lu Jiuxing?"
President Lan replied, "No."
Wan Jiao asked again, "Have you made any deals with Baili Rugo and Lu Jiuxing and his mother? What is your relationship like?"
Chairman Lan replied, "There was no transaction, and no personal relationship."
Since that's the case, there's no need to ask any further questions.
With a wave of her hand, Wan Jiao sent President Lan sprawling onto the sofa, where she appeared to be fast asleep.
Amber watched the whole thing, but she was completely bewildered.
At this moment, Wan Jiao suddenly spoke up, "Director An, it wasn't him."
"Not the old chairman?" Amber exclaimed in surprise. "Xiao Wan, why are you so sure?"
Wan Jiao stated the shocking truth with a blank expression, "Ancient mantras and talismans are something that even gods cannot resist."
Amber: "..."
Wan Jiao can actually produce something like this... How terrifying.
Fortunately, he had a clear conscience about everything he did in his life and would never stand against Wan Jiao, otherwise...
"Xiao Wan, if it's not the old chairman, then your evidence is fake?"
Wan Jiao shook her head. "The evidence is real."
Amber was even more confused.
The evidence is real, but it wasn't Chairman Lan who did it, so...
Wan Jiao noticed the doubt in An Bo's mind and said, "Someone has meticulously planned to smear Lan Xiubai."
"What a grand strategy!" Amber exclaimed.
Wan Jiao nodded in agreement and smiled slyly, "Director An, since they want to frame Lan Xiubai, why don't we, the Special Security Bureau, do them a favor?"
Amber didn't understand Wan Jiao's meaning at first.
But after she wrote a word in the air with her spiritual power, he gave her a thumbs up.
…
The news that Chairman Lan had been arrested by the Special Security Bureau spread like wildfire throughout the entire metaphysical world. It was Amber who personally brought him back to the Special Security Bureau headquarters. While he was being held in the Special Security Bureau's "prison," Wan Jiao had already continued her live stream.
Many netizens were waiting for her to resume broadcasting, the kind of waiting online. When she started broadcasting again, they flocked to her channel.
[Host, why did you take so long? I've been waiting from spring to winter, the flowers have all withered, sob sob...]
[You're exaggerating! The streamer was only there for about forty minutes...]
Does it matter how long he was gone? The important thing is that the streamer is finally back! Come on, let's move on to the third lucky person!
Pick me! Pick me! I want to ask about my fortune! I want to get rich quick...
Wan Jiao didn't even bother to say anything this time. She simply made an OK sign and clicked to connect. And just like that, the third person destined to connect was found. It was a girl with the nickname "Little Flying Hero Zhuzhu" on Kuaiyu (a Chinese online gaming platform).
She really is a young girl, and looks to be only fifteen or sixteen years old.
Upon discovering that Wan Jiao had connected with her online, "Little Flying Hero Zhuzhu" quickly and politely bowed, saying, "[Sister Host, I want my fortune told]"
