Mrs. Jiang slapped Chu Haner twice more and began to cry loudly.
Mrs. Jiang was so angry that her strength was astonishing.
Chu Haner's little face instantly swelled up into a pie face, red and swollen.
Chu Haner bit her lips and clenched her fists hidden in her sleeves.
This old witch actually dared to hit her.
She wasn't the one who killed Jiang Pei. It was obviously because of his low strength. It was none of her business!
At this time, she couldn't evade or fight back, she could only endure it.
Humph, when she blames Jun Mohuang for Jiang Pei's death, when she becomes the peak master's wife, or even the sect leader's wife, she wants this old witch to look good.
"Chu Han'er, please tell this city lord what's going on!"
City Lord Jiang was still calm, his eyes were sharp and he wanted to split Chu Haner in half.
Of course he resented Chu Han'er. If she hadn't shamelessly pestered Jiang Pei to marry him, Jiang Pei would not have come to Lingyuan Sect to take the exam and died in an accident.
"Uncle... the reason why my cousin died unfortunately was because in the second round of assessment, Miss Jun insisted that my cousin and I walk alone on the mountainside road. She also swore that that road was very safe and she would never do it. If anything goes wrong, my cousin chose that path out of trust in her.”
"It turned out that the road was particularly dangerous. Unfortunately, we were besieged by many Yuanzun-level monsters along the way. Han'er and my cousin fought side by side, but we still couldn't defeat the monsters. In order to protect me, my cousin unfortunately passed away."
Chu Han'er felt a chill down her spine when she felt City Lord Jiang's gaze.
Ever since she was a child, she had been most afraid of her uncle Jiang An. Being stared at by City Master Jiang like this, she almost didn't say the words to slander Jun Mohuang that she had discussed with Yuan Wei before.
Fortunately, she is telling the truth now and there is nothing to be afraid of.
"City Master Jiang, Mrs. Jiang, and what Chu Han'er said are all true. My Peak Master's nephew happened to be passing by there at that time and saved the dying Chu Han'er. Unfortunately, he came too late and failed to save Young Master Jiang."
"Uncle, aunt, if you feel uncomfortable, just kill Han'er. Everything is Han'er's fault. It was Han'er who killed my cousin. My cousin is dead, and Han'er doesn't want to live anymore..."
Chu Haner cried and cried, and at the end of her speech, she knelt down to City Lord Jiang and Mrs. Jiang.
He took out a dagger and put it in front of the two of them, looking as if he was heartbroken and didn't want to live anymore.
"You vixen, it's all your fault, it's all your fault!"
Mrs. Jiang had already guessed that Jiang Pei must have died to protect Chu Haner.
Hearing what she said personally, she became so angry that she grabbed the dagger and wanted to end Chu Haner's life with one blow.
"Ma'am, stop."
City Lord Jiang cleverly snatched the dagger from Mrs. Jiang's hand.
He still had a trace of calmness and reason to stop Mrs. Jiang.
Although Chu Haner was annoying, she was not the culprit who killed Jiang Pei.
"Chu Han'er, who is the Miss Jun you are talking about? Why did she deliberately let you two take that dangerous road for no reason?"
The Lingyuan Sect's assessment changes every year, but some basic modes will not change, such as forming a team to pass the assessment.
Under normal circumstances, team members have to act together with the group.
Even if they don't act together and separate themselves, they won't
Miss Jun in Chu Han'er's mouth deliberately let the two of them take a dangerous path. There must be something inside.
"This... uncle is just trying to make up for the rumors. Han'er doesn't dare to say anything without evidence."
The expression on Chu Han'er's face showed hesitation and shrinkage for the first time.
