Chapter 49: Mystic Demon Eye

Hearing Su Qianqian's words, Yang Lin couldn't help but stunned, "Eldest Miss, what explanation?"

"Do you still want to pretend in front of me?" Su Qianqian said coldly.

Yang Lin looked inexplicable, but soon, he knelt down towards Su Qianqian, "Miss, I really don't know what kind of guilt I have, so please let me know if I really did wrong. I am willing to accept any punishment."

"You said it yourself!"

Su Qianqian snorted, "Before, our caravan encountered Coffin Locusts and all the spiritual plants and herbs were ruined, is it not your doing? Also, there are rumors about me and Young Master Wuji recently, were you the one who started it?"

Hearing this, everyone in the caravan was surprised and looked at each other for a while.

Yang Lin looked a little surprised, and quickly defended, "Miss, you are wrong! These things you said really have nothing to do with me. I have been staying by your side almost all the time. If there is a problem, you would've found out right away. Besides, I have been with you for several years and you gave everything to me. There is no need to do those kinds of things to you."

"..."

Su Qianqian stopped talking, just looked at Yang Lin with cold eyes.

There was indeed nothing wrong with Yang Lin's words. As Yang Lin had followed her for many years, she should really believe in Yang Lin instead of the unknown person Mo Xiu.

But her instinct told her that Mo Xiu, a person of unknown origin, was truly worthy of trust, because Mo Xiu was strong enough and didn't need to get anything from her, and Yang Lin was different.

As a member of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce, she couldn't be more clear about one reason: 'no matter how deep the feelings are, once interests are involved, betrayal is still necessary.'

Therefore, emotions could not be used as a reference at all. At this time, instead of relying on emotion to judge, it was better to rely on intuition and real evidence to judge.

The reason why she called everyone together and pressed Yang Lin was also because she was convinced that Yang Lin was the traitor, even though she still didn't know which force Yang Lin was currently working for secretly.

Although Yang Lin knelt in front of Su Qianqian, he could feel Su Qianqian's cold eyes.

He raised his head and stared at Su Qianqian with an upright look, "Eldest Miss, you have to believe me! I really didn't do anything that wronged you."

Then, he looked at Mo Xiu next to Su Qianqian, "Young Master Wuji, you instigated Eldest Miss to target me, right? You are really ill-intentioned. I have always believed in you before and believe that since you have become the deacon of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce, you will definitely not do this kind of instigation. Now, it seems that I really misunderstood you."

As he said, his tone became colder, "They all said that the Coffin Locusts before is probably your doing, otherwise, we will not encounter Coffin Locusts at all, everything was prepared by you to deceive Eldest Miss. Otherwise, it is impossible for someone like you to be invited to join the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce, and it is impossible to become a deacon of the Chamber of Commerce... It seems that these are all true!"

Finally, he said to Su Qianqian with tears, "Miss, this Young Master Wuji is a liar. Please keep your eyes open and see clearly. Don't be blinded by this liar."

After saying a lot of things, Su Qianqian was not moved, but the members of the caravan around him were moved.

"Yes, Miss, Yang Lin will definitely not have a problem."

"Rather than saying that Yang Lin has a problem, I think this Young Master Wuji has a bigger problem."

"That's right, this Young Master Wu Ji just popped up suddenly, who knows his identity?"

"Miss, you can't blame Yang Lin just because you fell in love with Young Master Wuji, otherwise, who would dare to follow you in the future?"

"If the Patriarch was here, he would definitely not agree with this happening, so please think twice."

...

Everyone rushed to help Yang Lin defend.

Su Qianqian's face was a bit ugly before, but now it was even more frosty.

Just before she had a seizure, Mo Xiu on the side spoke, "Yes, I said it. I told her that Yang Lin is a traitor."

"It's really you!"

Yang Lin snorted coldly, "What evidence do you have that I am a traitor? A mere verbal statement cannot be taken as proof, even if you were not the one who had your hands in the Coffin Locusts incident, what qualifications do you have to be a deacon of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce?"

"Evidence?" Mo Xiu shook his head slightly, "What evidence do you want? If I say you are a traitor, you are a traitor."

As soon as this declaration was voiced out, Yang Lin was stunned.

Even if there was no evidence, a person had to be a traitor even if he was not. Was it so easy to slander people these days?

Su Qianqian and the rest of the caravan were also stunned. What the hell was this Young Master Wuji saying?

'Even if you really have no evidence, you can't say that, otherwise, wouldn't it seem that you are too unreasonable?'

After a while of astonishment, Yang Lin reacted quickly and smiled, "Let me just say it, you don't even have a piece of evidence, but you dare to say that I am a traitor? Where on earth did you gather your confidence to come and slander me?"

Mo Xiu's expression was still the same, "Slander? Do you dare to say that you have never done anything faulty to Su Qianqian?"

"Why don't I dare?" Yang Lin immediately swore in front of everyone, "I, Yang Lin, swear to heaven, if I have done some faulty things to Eldest Miss, I would like to die!"

Seeing Yang Lin issued such a heavy oath, everyone believed that Yang Lin was innocent and believed that everything was slandered by Mo Xiu.

Even Su Qianqian had a doubt in her heart, "Did she really misunderstand Yang Lin?"

Mo Xiu disagreed, "What's the use of swearing to heaven? I want you to look into my eyes and swear."

"Okay! As long as I can prove my innocence, what's wrong with looking at your eyes and swearing?" Yang Lin was not afraid of even swearing to heaven, so naturally, he would be even more unafraid to swear to Mo Xiu's eyes.

Soon, he looked into Mo Xiu's eyes and swore, "I, Yang Lin, swear, if I have done anything improper behind my Eldest Miss, I wish to be struck by five peals of thunder to death!"

As soon as his voice fell, a loud "bang" manifested out of nowhere. The sky was suddenly surging as countless dark clouds gathered from all directions. A muffled thunder sound came from above the dark clouds, it seemed that soon, there would be raging thunders falling from the sky.

"Ahh..."

Everyone looked up and saw five purple thunder arcs as thick as a baby's arm descending from the sky.

Before everyone could react, the five thunder arcs had already struck Yang Lin.

"Argh!!"

After a scream, Yang Lin's whole body was crispy on the outside and tender inside as he slowly fell to the ground on his back. Although he did not die immediately, his pupils became white and his vitality gradually lost.

Dark clouds came and went fast, and in the blink of an eye, there was another clear sky.

Everyone looked at Yang Lin who fell on the ground and the purple thunder and lightning still faintly visible on Yang Lin's body. They all involuntarily stepped back two or three steps, but their hearts were full of stormy waves.

The oath this guy just made was fulfilled so fast like this?

Had God appeared? Or was Yang Lin really so unlucky?

Also, why did nothing happen when Yang Lin swore to heaven, but he almost died as soon as he swore to this Young Master Wuji's eyes?

Was it possible that the vows were indeed fulfilled when he swore to heaven and there was still the term "delay"?

Or was it that Mo Xiu's eyes represented the real Heavenly Dao, and it was useful to swear to Mo Xiu's eyes?

But impossible! This kind of thing was too ridiculous!

They didn't believe that Mo Xiu's eyes could represent the Heavenly Dao. Everything was either a coincidence, or it was just a delay in the fulfillment of the oath from the real heaven.

Anyway, after seeing such a scene with their own eyes, everyone no longer dared to swear indiscriminately.

It was too terrible! Even if they were threatened to make an oath in the future, they would refuse without fail even if they were going to be beaten to death!

Naturally, Mo Xiu's eyes could not replace the Heavenly Dao, in fact, even if people really swore to Heavenly Dao, it would not be fulfilled.

Others might not know it, but as the reincarnation of the Everlasting Demon King from the Realm of Heaven, he knew better than anyone else here that the so-called Heavenly Dao did not exist at all.

Retribution by the Heavenly Dao, this kind of thing would never happen, whether it was revenge or gratitude, it depended on oneself after all.

It was precisely because of this that even if Yang Lin swore to the sky, he would not die by thunder.

Mo Xiu's eyes actually changed when Yang Lin swore previously.

Although he didn't deliberately practice pupil technique, Mo Xiu's previous life was one of the top powerhouses in the Realm of Heaven, and he was not a self-appointed Demon King but was certified by the God and Demon Stele.

Whether it was an Immortal King or a Demon King, people who had reached that level of cultivation level could represent the Heavenly Dao to a certain extent, especially those who had been certified by the God and Demon Stele, and they all implied the power of heaven.

Although Mo Xiu had been reincarnated, his previous life was the Everlasting Demon King, this was an unchangeable fact.

Also, because his previous life was the Everlasting Demon King, he was born with a pair of Mystic Demon Eyes in this life, but the people in the Profound Sky Continent didn't recognize the goods at all.

Swearing to the Mystic Demon Eye was very likely to be fulfilled, especially the simple oath of "five thunders and death".

Yang Lin didn't know the power of the Mystic Demon Eye, so since he dared to swear to his eyes, he would die.

However, Yang Lin was not dead yet but he was still hanging on his breath. Mo Xiu didn't want to let Yang Lin die so easily.

Therefore, when everyone else was backing, he instead stepped forward two or three steps and came to Yang Lin's side, running his True Energy to help Yang Lin maintain that breath.

After a while, he asked, "Which force do you work for?"

"Al… Alchemy League." Yang Lin replied weakly.

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was in an uproar.

After what happened just now, everyone had confirmed that Yang Lin had a problem, and he had indeed done bad things towards Su Qianqian, otherwise, he would not be condemned by heaven.

They were still a little surprised when they heard Yang Lin say it personally, especially when Yang Lin said that he was the spy of the Alchemy League, they couldn't believe it.

Why was it Alchemy League? How could it be Alchemy League?

The relationship between Alchemy League and the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce was so harmonious. Why did they want to plant a spy next to Su Qianqian? Why did they harm Su Qianqian?

Mo Xiu also frowned and quickly said, "Tell everything you know."
