As soon as these words came out, Feng Lianying's face suddenly turned pale and blue.
The warriors watching were in an uproar and snickered.
Rumors that the Ice Lotus Fairy was naked after coming out of the Sealed Dragon Territory spread like wildfire at the time, but were quickly suppressed.
Many of the warriors present had heard it, but did not take it seriously, thinking that someone was falsely accusing the Ice Lotus Fairy.
But now that Shen Qingruo said it, everyone unanimously believed it to about 70%.
It was because the little girl Shen Qingruo's eyes were too clear, her face was still childish, and her speech revealed immaturity and shyness. She didn't seem like the type of person who would make false accusations against others.
"Elder Shen, are you letting your niece make trouble in order to delay time and protect Xi Yue, the murderer?"
A deep male voice sounded, instantly drowning out the noisy sounds in the hall.
When everyone saw Feng Yunjing speaking with a cold face, they immediately fell silent and dared not say anything more.
Shen Sen sneered, showing no intention of backing down, "Young Master Feng keeps saying that Xi Yue is the murderer, but he never produces any evidence. I even said it was a frame-up!"
As he spoke, Shen Sen looked at He Xi and asked, "Xi Yue, did you kill the Third Prince?"
He Xi said firmly: "No."
Shen Sen looked straight into her eyes, and saw that her pupils were clear and persistent, with a hint of coldness flickering in the depths of her eyes.
She met his gaze without even the slightest dodging or retreating.
Shen Sen then smiled slightly and said loudly: "I believe you. Since you didn't do it, my Shen family will never allow anyone to wrongly accuse you."
As soon as Shen Sen said this, Feng Yunjing's face suddenly became extremely gloomy, and the look he gave He Xi became more solemn.
I don’t know how charming this person is. First, she was protected by Nangong Yu and Gu Liufeng in Fenglong Territory, and now that she is at Broken Soul Mountain, there are even people from the Shen family of Qingxia Sect who are protecting her.
He looked at Shen Sen coldly and said gloomily, "Since when did the Shen family start to meddle in other people's business? This is Jinling Kingdom, and the one who died is the third prince of Jinling Kingdom. Qingxia Sect is interfering in other people's affairs like this. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by the world?"
"So Young Master Feng also knew that this was Jinling Country's business." Shen Sen retorted, refusing to give in. "Since the dead were from Jinling Country, what does it have to do with your Feng family? Young Master Feng is so aggressive, dealing with a Foundation Establishment stage boy, which makes me wonder if the Feng family has ulterior motives."
Feng Yunjing's face was gloomy, and he was at a loss for a moment.
The Shen family is as powerful as the Feng family. If they were to completely fall out with the Shen family just for Xi Yue, the Feng family and Feng Yunjing would never be willing to do that.
He just couldn't understand why a powerful family like the Shen family would come into direct conflict with the Feng family over a low-level warrior in the foundation-building stage.
At this moment, Feng Lianying on the side could no longer hold back and shouted at He Xi: "Xi Yue, do you still have any shame? It was clearly your own fault, yet you let the Shen family and Sister Ruo'er rush to the front for you."
"If you still have a conscience, you'd better admit your crime. Otherwise, when the evidence is made public, not only will you have to pay for your murder, but you will also ruin the reputation of Qingxia Sect. Is this the result you want?"
He Xi, who had been silent the whole time, finally raised his head upon hearing this, and said to Feng Lianying with a half-smile: "Oh? Who exactly killed Shangguan Rui? I think Fairy Binglian and Young Master Feng should know better than anyone else, right?" (To be continued)
