Cao Kuohai's expression changed drastically.
The moment Lan Yuanqing, Gu Yang, and Sima Xuefeng attacked all the emperors of their Cao clan at the same time, he knew that the fact that they sent people to assassinate Yang Fan was most likely exposed!
Otherwise, with their Cao family's status and reputation in Jinghua City and the entire federal government, even Lan Yuanqing, the master of a region, would definitely not dare to act so recklessly.
"What?! Why are you imprisoning me?!"
"What crime have we committed? Why should we be treated like this? We are responding to the call of the city lord's palace and going out to protect Jinghua City. How can you do this?"
"Master, please say something! They are obviously targeting our Cao family!"
“…”
Several tribesmen around him shouted loudly and unconvincedly, and some people turned to look at Cao Kuohai, hoping that the head of the family could come up with an idea.
Lan Yuanqing's sudden operation really frightened these Cao clan members.
In fact, it is not just the Cao family, but also the Li family, Luo family, Ji family, etc., nearly half of the emperors present are from such aristocratic families.
These people are now all looking at the city lord in bewilderment as he personally led his people to imprison all the emperors of the Cao family at lightning speed. They feel quite a bit sad and everyone is in danger.
"Silence!"
Lan Yuanqing shouted lightly, directly interrupting the shouts of all the Cao clan members, and then raised his head to look at Cao Kuohai, who was standing in the middle of the crowd.
"Master Cao, I think you know why this city master made this decision. Why, aren't you going to say a few words?"
Cao Kuohai looked confused: "City Lord Lan, I don't quite understand what you said. Our Cao family has always abided by the law, and today we actively responded to the call of the City Lord's Mansion to go out of the city to fight the enemy regardless of life and death. I really can't understand. Why would Lord Blue City treat a meritorious official like this?"
"Could it be that just because the ancestor of my Cao family didn't come out with the six seniors just now, does he deserve to be hated like this?"
"This is unfair!" Cao Kuohai said with an unjust look on his face: "My ancestor went crazy a few years ago because of the conflict between his martial arts. He was seriously injured and closed his eyes to death. Even I couldn't contact my ancestor. For My ancestor must be completely unaware of what is happening in Jinghua City now..."
Cao Kuohai loudly defended his ancestor, trying to confuse the audience and lead the core of the problem to the question of why Cao Jiaxun did not fight.
Lan Yuanqing shook his head slightly and interrupted his words: "Stop making excuses. Why your ancestor didn't come out has nothing to do with this matter."
"I just want to ask you one thing, the city lord. Dr. Yang Fan in the city was just attacked and assassinated by your Cao clan. Do you know about it?"
"What? Master Yang was assassinated?!"
"No way, why would the Cao family do this? What benefit would killing Dr. Yang Fan do to them?"
"This doesn't make sense, does it..."
As soon as Lan Yuanqing finished speaking, not only the expressions of many emperors of the Cao family changed dramatically, but even the emperors and above from other families who were watching had expressions of disbelief.
They couldn't think of the reason why the Cao family attacked Yang Fan. They had never heard of any direct or indirect conflict between Yang Fan and the Cao family
And with Yang Fan's current reputation and status in the Federation, even if he had a grudge, the Cao family wouldn't assassinate him at this time as long as he was not stupid. Aren't they afraid of public outrage
"City Lord Lan, how is Master Yang now? Is he injured?"
"City Lord Lan, is there nothing wrong with Dr. Yang Fan?"
“…”
After the shock, these emperors began to inquire earnestly about Yang Fan's life safety.
After all, Yang Fan is the only emperor-level physician in the Federation, and his personal safety is closely related to the emperor-level experts present.
If Yang Fan was seriously injured or killed directly, if they were injured again or were poisoned by some strange poison, there would be no one who could heal them.
Also, soul refining pill.
During this period of time, they had exchanged many soul-refining pills and soul-refining pills from Yang Fan that they and the younger generations of the clan urgently needed. If Yang Fan died, where would they get the soul-refining pill resources in the future
For a moment, everyone began to glare at the Cao clan members, especially those Emperors who had only been completely recovered by Yang Fan's hands. Their eyes were boiling with murderous intent.
Yang Fan is not only their savior, but also a handsome, cute and kind-hearted young man in their eyes. In their hearts, Yang Fan is even more important than their own son or grandson.
Now that they heard about Yang Fan's assassination, how could these Emperors, who had an extremely friendly relationship with Yang Fan, tolerate it
"Don't worry, everyone!" Lan Yuanqing comforted him loudly: "Master Yang is safe and sound now. Those Cao clan members who were sent to assassinate Master Yang were also killed by Master Yang Fan!"
"Now, we have to suspect that the Cao family is colluding with extraterrestrial monsters to plot evil against Dr. Yang Fan!"
Cao Kuohai's face instantly turned pale.
Yang Fan is not dead
Why, they had clearly planned so carefully that all the emperors and high-level kings of Jinghua Martial Arts University were transferred out of the city. Why could Yang Fan still avoid the assassination of two peak kings
It doesn’t make sense!
In order to kill Yang Fan in one fell swoop, they even asked Cao Dexiu and Li Boyu to bring at least three half-step emperor-level spiritual treasures. In addition, the two of them were at the peak king level, and their cultivation levels were much higher than Yang Fan's.
Logically speaking, there is no reason for Yang Fan not to die!
"Cao Kuohai, what else do you have to say now?"
Lan Yuanqing looked at Cao Kuohai coldly and asked softly: "You know the rules of our Jinghua City. If one person colludes with the demon clan, all the Manchus will be implicated! If you are willing to plead guilty now, the city lord may also consider giving you the Cao family Leave a trace of incense blood, otherwise... hum!"
Lan Yuanqing didn't say the following words clearly, but Cao Kuohai and the other clan members all shuddered in unison.
Colluding with the demon clan is a major crime that will wipe out the whole family. No matter what the identity or status is, no one can be exempted as long as the evidence is solid.
This is the most cruel punishment imposed by the Federation and Jinghua City on those who betray the human race.
It is also the only piece of retro torture that is the most unreasonable and the most disrespectful to humanity and human rights among all the laws of the Human Federation!
"I don't know! I really don't know anything!"
Cao Kuohai was still making his final struggle: "There must be some misunderstanding, or maybe someone is deliberately framing me, the Cao family!"
"Lord Lan, you know that our Cao family has offended many families over the years. It is possible that someone wants to use this as an excuse to destroy my Cao family!"
"Please City Lord Lan, please be able to see clearly and give justice and innocence to my entire family, the Cao family!"
This kind of thing cannot be admitted even to death.
What's more, Lan Yuanqing himself said just now that the assassins responsible for assassinating Yang Fan have all been killed. Is there any evidence that they have died
Cao Kuohai is not a fool, so how could he take the initiative to admit it
Lan Yuanqing shook his head slightly and said softly: "I expected you to say this. If so, how about letting President Mei conduct a frank and routine interrogation of you in front of all the emperors in the city?"
"Didn't you say that you didn't know anything about it? Didn't you say that this was most likely framed by Cao's enemies on purpose? Then I, the City Lord, will give you a chance to prove your innocence now!"
Lan Yuanqing looked at Cao Kuohai seriously and said: "President Mei is the pinnacle spiritual emperor, and she does not belong to any aristocratic family. Her character is obvious to all. I don't think everyone will know how to let her interrogate you personally." Do you have any objections?"
Lan Yuanqing's last words were no longer asking Cao Kuohai, but all the emperor-level experts present besides the Cao family.
Because at this time, Cao Kuohai's personal opinions actually didn't matter. As long as he could get everyone's recognition and approval, Lan Yuanqing didn't mind forced interrogation at all.
really.
As soon as Lan Yuanqing finished speaking, almost all the emperors present nodded in agreement.
Mei Cailan, as the branch president of Jinghua City Soul Refiner Guild, has always been known in Jinghua City for her impartiality, strictness, high moral character and high reputation. No one will doubt her character, let alone her character. She would deliberately frame Cao Kuohai and his party.
"In that case, please give President Mei a hard time!"
Lan Yuanqing politely stretched out his hand to invite Mei Cailan out. At the moment when he saw Mei Cailan slowly approaching, Cao Kuohai finally couldn't bear it anymore and his face turned pale.
Mei Cailan was a peak spiritual emperor, and her spiritual cultivation was even stronger than many half-step emperors. If she were to conduct a mental interference interrogation, Cao Kuohai was afraid that he would not be able to withstand it.
Buzz! Buzz!
At this time, the watches of Lan Yuanqing, Gu Yang, and Ye Hanshuang vibrated at the same time again.
Just like before, the three of them lowered their heads to check and saw that Yang Fan had sent two short videos directly this time.
One section shows the scene when Yang Fan was attacked by Cao Dexiu and Li Boyu in Wanshou Pavilion.
The other section shows Yang Fan and Mu Yuanzhong talking and confronting Cao Jiaxun at Cao's mansion.
The first video is just that. After all, Cao Dexiu and Li Boyu are only at the peak of the king level and have little reputation. Neither Lan Yuanqing, Gu Yang nor Ye Hanshuang recognize them very well.
But they are all very familiar with Cao Jiaxun in a video.
Seeing in the video, Cao Jiaxun not only admitted the fact that he colluded with the demon clan to assassinate Yang Fan, but also revealed his true identity as a demon possessed.
For a moment, Lan Yuanqing, Gu Yang, and Ye Hanshuang felt chills running down their spines at the same time, and all the hairs on their bodies stood up.
Cao Jiaxun is actually a half-demon possessed by a demon spirit? !
This news is so scary, so unbelievable and so shocking!
No one doubts the authenticity of these two videos.
First, because their extremely friendly relationship with Yang Fan made them more willing to believe in Yang Fan's character.
Secondly, the final battle between Cao Jiaxun and Mu Yuanzhong in the video gave them an extremely powerful sense of oppression and fear even across the video screen. This is definitely not what ordinary synthetic videos can achieve. .
Even the world's top special effects team cannot imitate the half-step emperor's aura and pressure so realistically.
"Okay!" Lan Yuanqing suddenly stopped Mei Cailan and said, "There is no need to interrogate President Mei anymore. The matter of Jinghua Cao's collusion with the demon clan has been confirmed without a doubt. There is no need to waste time here anymore."
After saying that, Lan Yuanqing glanced at Cao Kuohai coldly and said expressionlessly: "These emperors of the Cao family are all suspected of collaborating with the enemy. There is no need to exist anymore. Kill them all!"
