"This elder has not taken anything from you!"
Qin Mingcheng narrowed his eyes, looking at Tian Ning with a dangerous glint in them.
Not understanding what she was cryptic about, the elder of the Enforcement Hall asked, "What did Elder Qin steal from you?"
"Of course it's a very important thing."
After saying that, Tian Ning activated his spiritual power, and under everyone's gaze, the mustard seed bag that Qin Mingcheng had on his waist suddenly began to shake, and the opening of the bag kept shifting towards Tian Ning, obviously something inside wanted to come out.
"this……"
Everyone was taken aback.
Tian Ning explained, "This is a special magical artifact. Even if someone puts it into a mustard seed bag, I can still sense it."
Tian Ning smiled in his usual standard manner: "In that case, Elder Qin, won't you open your storage bag and let everyone see what you've taken from me?"
A bad feeling washed over Qin Mingcheng.
Of course he didn't want to, but in front of the elders of the Enforcement Hall, he couldn't refuse!
Qin Mingcheng knew that everything in his mustard seed bag was his own, except for one thing...
Qin Mingcheng stiffly opened the mustard seed bag, and an exquisite folding fan pendant immediately flew out and landed in Tian Ning's hand.
The elder of the Enforcement Hall naturally recognized the object. He asked in surprise, "Tian Ning, you're saying this is yours?"
“Of course, how could I control something that isn’t mine?” What she said made perfect sense. She even asked, “Elder, did Elder Qin tell you that this magical artifact is his? And Tian Chenxi did the same?”
"That's right, both of them claimed this magical artifact as their own. And it was precisely this artifact that destroyed the main hall of Tianliang Mountain at the time of the incident!" the elder of the Enforcement Hall stated bluntly.
"After investigation by the Enforcement Hall, it was found that this magical artifact was extraordinary, but it was an unclaimed object."
“That day, Chenxi said that the magic artifact was hers, but I sent my disciple to the Wenren family to inquire about the situation. Putting aside the fact that the Wenren family inexplicably said that Wenren Xue had died long ago, and that Chenxi’s possession had nothing to do with them, they also said that when Chenxi left the Wenren family, all her belongings had been confiscated. Not to mention the magic artifact, she didn’t even have any spirit stones on her.”
"As for Elder Qin's claim that it was his magic weapon, it did indeed contain his spiritual power at the time. However, given his cultivation level, even if he was tricked by Tian Chenxi, he wouldn't need to use a magic weapon to cause such a big commotion..."
This was precisely the point of suspicion the elder of the Enforcement Hall had raised, making him believe that Qin Mingcheng was problematic.
"However, Elder Qin also said that his cultivation was affected by that wicked disciple's matter, and he had been showing signs of qi deviation for a long time. He was so angry at the time that he lost his temper."
"oh,"
Tianning offered the elder of the Enforcement Hall a different perspective: "Is it possible that he went into a state of demonic possession and tried to harm Tian Chenxi, but was awakened by my things, and after regaining his consciousness, he deliberately tidied up the scene before the others arrived?"
"shut up!"
Qin Mingcheng couldn't stand it any longer and roared, "Who gave you the audacity to slander this elder, you mere disciple?!"
Tian Ning said sincerely, "Elder Qin, don't you intend to explain why the things I gave to Tian Chenxi ended up in your storage bag?"
"You gave it to Tian Chenxi?"
The question was posed by an elder of the Enforcement Hall, but the others also looked at Tian Ning in surprise.
Given her irreconcilable relationship with Wenren Xue, how could she possibly give her such a magical artifact?
"Me! Me! I can prove it!"
Long Aotian immediately said, "This was indeed given to Tian Chenxi by my junior sister. All of us from the Sword Protection Mountain were there and saw it! Elder, if you don't believe me, you can call someone from the Wen family or Long Ye over!"
Qin Mingcheng was about to say that Wen Renjia's words were completely unreliable!
Over there, Tianning had already used her spiritual power to continuously enlarge the small folding fan, and then she deftly separated the two sides of the folding fan.
With a 'thud,' several photo stones fell to the ground in succession.
Qin Mingcheng: "..."
“There’s no need for that,” Tianning picked up the recording stones and handed them to the elder of the Enforcement Hall. “From the moment they were given to Wenren Xue, these recording stones began to record things. As for the truth you want, Elder, I think it should be in there.”
Qin Mingcheng: "..."
"you……"
The elder of the Enforcement Hall accepted the gift with a hesitant expression. She had prepared so thoroughly; could it be that she had already anticipated this?
"If Tian Chenxi is truly innocent, I will clear his name..."
Seeing the complicated expression on the elder's face, Tian Ning continued to throw out another bombshell: "I think the elder must be wondering why I'm helping her?"
Elder of the Enforcement Hall: "..."
Tian Ning said, "Here, I would like to ask the elder to clear Tian Chenxi's name once again!"
"She was possessed by someone when she was young, which led her to make the mistake of colluding with the demons. But now that the possessor has been eliminated and the true owner of that body has returned, she should no longer pay the price for the mistakes made by Wenren Xue!"
The silence was equally desolate; no one would have guessed that Tianning was about to say this!
"Tian Ning, do you know what you're saying?!" Even the elders of the Enforcement Hall, who had seen many big scenes, found it hard to accept what she said.
"nature."
Tian Ning said, "I believe the elders have noticed these days that Tian Chenxi is completely different from Wenren Xue in the past, and Wenren Xue has even mentioned possession."
"Therefore, I will bring back the Divine Soul Mirror as proof after the Six Sects Tournament. I would appreciate it if the elder could come forward as a witness."
Although some people might still not believe it, Tianning still wanted to help the child as much as he could.
If possible, Tianning would prefer her to stay far away from the mess left by Wenren Xue and go far away, so that she wouldn't have to bear the burden of things she never did.
But everyone has their own choices, and Tian Chenxi is no exception.
On the way, Tianning heard from her third senior sister that the child had taken all the punishments and was even willing to have his cultivation abolished, vowing that he would never die if he colluded with the demons again!
All she wanted was to wash away the 'dirt' of the past and be able to stand in the sunlight again.
She could have avoided facing these issues, but she still chose the most difficult path.
Perhaps no one can understand that child, but Tianning does...
