Chapter 38 - The Trial Begins! Lin Xiao's scheme!

Chapter 38 The Trial Begins! Lin Xiao’s scheme!

Following Su Mei’s declaration.

Everyone was shocked; they started exchanging glances and whispers.

Even Lin Xiao, who was in the center of the hall, only came back to his senses after a long while.

It turned out that the various branches of the Azure Mist Sect had reached an agreement: Any case involving the head disciple of a certain branch who violated the sect rules would be interrogated by their respective master in front of the elders of the Law Enforcement Hall.

After all, the chief disciple’s reputation was at stake. No matter what the outcome was, they could at least retain some dignity with their own master as their interrogator.

Of course, the most important reason was still…

The judgment of the elders of the Law Enforcement Hall had always been strict and extreme. Therefore, if something happened to their own sect, they could still go easy on them and save face.

Lin Xiao remembered clearly.

In the original book, it was once mentioned that the previous chief disciple of Dragon Head Peak, Jiang Yuan, was supposed to be executed according to the sect rules because he had colluded with the demoness of the Demon Sect. However, during the trial, under the interrogation of the Sect Master, Venerable Zi Yun, his sentence was changed to 60 years of imprisonment.

“Sigh, it’s already so late and she hasn’t arrived yet. Master must have drunk too much last night…”

“Drunkards are indeed unreliable!”

“Fortunately, Master Su stood up. Otherwise, with these evil punishment elders who are on good terms with Daoist Yuan Yi taking turns to interrogate me, I would have died today!”

He saw the voluptuous figure, so charming that she could seduce people just by walking, walking towards him.

Lin Xiao heaved a sigh of relief.

Of course, he wasn’t afraid of death!

What he was afraid of was not dying according to the original plot!

“Master Su has always been at odds with Master. The two sisters have been fighting for more than a hundred years. I didn’t expect her to be willing to stand up for me…”

‘How very touching.’

“As the saying goes, the grace of dripping water should be reciprocated by a gushing spring!” “If I ever get the chance to before I leave this world, I have to go to Phoenix Cry Peak and have a good chat with her! I have to fulfill my dream as a student in my previous life!” “That doesn’t exactly disrupt the main plot, does it?”

Lin Xiao made up his mind.

On the other side.

A certain master-disciple pair did not look so pleased.

“Sigh, it was already a miracle for Xiao Hongling to be absent. I didn’t expect Chief Su of Phoenix Cry Peak to stand up for Lin Xiao!”

“Master, I… I hate him so much! He was so close to dying today!”

Ye Chen gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. Under his extreme anger, his nails had already dug into his flesh!

In an instant, he suddenly had a ridiculous thought…

The immortal rod named Lin Xiao in front of him might have as much great fortune as him!

Even.

The other party was so handsome and had an aura of a deity. Did he seem more like… the Chosen One?

“This guy… Could he be the existence that Elder Shi mentioned who intercepted my luck?”

Ye Chen’s heart skipped a beat. For a moment, his killing intent intensified!

There could only be one Chosen One in this divine land, and that was him, Ye Chen!

“Disciple, don’t panic.”

However, Daoist Yuan Yi’s expression was calm as he said leisurely, “This Chief Su has always been at odds with Chief Xiao of the Divine Phoenix Peak. The way I see it, she wants to personally interrogate Lin Xiao to take revenge on the latter!”

“Let’s just watch from the side.”

“Yes! Master! I hope everything will go as you wish!”

“Wow, this woman smells so good. She smells even better than Master.”

He saw the master of Phoenix Cry Peak walking around him with her snow-white

legs.

Lin Xiao was a little lost in thought.

“Chief Su, according to the rules, Chief Xiao of the Divine Phoenix Peak has yet to arrive. As the chief of his lineage, you have the right to interrogate him on her behalf.”

“You can start now.”

On the high platform, the voice of Perfected Zi Yun, who was sitting in the air, echoed throughout the entire hall.

“Thank you, Sect Master, Senior Brother, and Elders, for your approval.”

Su Mei bowed to him, then smiled at Lin Xiao and blinked, as if telling him not to be

nervous.

“Oh my God, as expected of a natural seductress.”

“It’s the same wink. Master Drunkard acts like a fool, but this Master Su gives off a feeling of having seen through… No, wait, she’s so charming!”

Although he was in danger, Lin Xiao could not help but feel emotional.

“Disciple-Nephew Lin, did you order your junior sister, Chu Youwei, to visit the inner sect disciple, Ye Chen, last night?”

Su Mei cleared her throat and asked.

“Master Su, there is indeed such a thing.” Lin Xiao nodded.

“Yes, do you remember when?” Su Mei asked gently.

“It’s about a quarter past midnight. If we count the time my Third Junior Sister used to ride the sword midway, the time she arrived at Heavenly Chi Peak was about a quarter past eight.”

Lin Xiao replied unhurriedly.

He had a plan.

He thought of a strategy that could not only clear his name but also temporarily spare Ye Chen’s life, allowing the latter to survive until the Five Lineages Martial Arts Competition to complete the face-slapping plot!

And the key to all of this was a woman…

At this moment, his handsome eyes glanced past the countless disciples and deacons present and landed on a beautiful figure dressed in snow-white clothes.

She stood quietly, tall, graceful, with her long legs. She was like a fairy from the Moon Palace who had walked out of a painting. She was completely different from the people around her!

“Zhu Wanning, didn’t you want to join forces with me just now?”

“Don’t disappoint me later.”

Lin Xiao prayed to himself.
