Shanxue's eyes lit up when he saw Li Chengfeng, like a hunter spotting his prey. He smiled and asked despite knowing the answer, "Who are you?"
Li Chengfeng bowed in the Hidden Sword Court's etiquette. "I am a junior of Hidden Sword Court, Li Chengfeng!"
Grand Senior Brother and Qin Mieqin looked at each other, confused. They did not understand why Li Chengfeng did not hit them when they were down, but offered help instead?
If Li Chengfeng was a traitor, then this was the best time to do so!
Shanxue snickered. "You're just a lowly disciple, how dare you spout such nonsense?"
The crowd roared with laughter. Someone yelled, "Scram, you little bastard! You have no respect for your elders!"
"That's right, Hidden Sword Court, what are you doing? Anyone who offends their superiors can be killed on the spot!
Where are you? Come on! "
Li Chengfeng's expression did not change in the face of the scolding. Like a sturdy boulder in the middle of a torrent, he said calmly, "So the Spiritual Mountain Sect is a place that only cares about seniority and not reason?"
The scolding grew louder. "You new bastard, what nonsense are you spouting?!"
"How dare you spout such nonsense?!"
Grand Senior Sister stood on the steps, looking down at Li Chengfeng. This man at the bottom was unyielding, as if he did not notice the huge gap between him and Shanxue.
'What a daring fellow …' Grand Senior Sister thought to herself as she glared at Li Chengfeng coldly.
Kong Yunzhen tapped his scepter on the ground and shouted, "Silence!
Silence! "
Everyone fell silent. Kong Yunzhen glared at Li Chengfeng and said in a low voice, "If you can't explain yourself, do you know the consequences of offending your superiors?"
Li Chengfeng smiled. "Of course I do!
The Spiritual Mountain Sect's rules may be strict but I won't be punished!
Because facts speak louder than words! "
Kong Yunzhen wanted to take Shanxue down a notch. He said with a half-smile, "Oh?
What do you say then? "
Shanxue laughed as well. "I'm all ears too. Let's see what Junior Brother has to say."
Li Chengfeng smiled. "I don't have any good ideas, just some bad ones."
Shanxue sneered, "If it's a low opinion, then don't say it. You'll dirty my ears."
Li Chengfeng said nonchalantly, "Although it's a humble opinion, it makes sense!
As the saying goes, the greatest sound is silent, and the Great Dao is formless!
The dust is not ashamed of being lowly, and the sea and river are not ashamed of being vulgar.
Sometimes, the more obscure and obvious a principle is, the less people notice it! "
Kong Yunzhen looked at Li Chengfeng in surprise. This sentence was full of truth. To an ordinary cultivator, it would be nonsense, but to a cultivator of his level, it was full of deep meaning.
It seemed that this was a piece of unpolished jade!
Kong Yunzhen looked at Li Chengfeng from head to toe and nodded slightly. Too bad you're not my disciple, too bad!
Shanxue sneered and said, "Sweet talk. Just say it. Let's see what tricks you have up your sleeves."
Li Chengfeng nodded and walked up to Shanxue. He looked him straight in the eye and said, "Then may I ask Senior Brother Shanxue, if most people suspect someone, they can be punished?"
Shanxue frowned and avoided the question. "What are you trying to say?"
Li Chengfeng did not answer but asked again, "Then may I ask Senior Brother Shanxue, if someone has a weapon on him, does that make him a suspect?"
Shanxue laughed coldly. "With a witness here, how can you deny it?"
Li Chengfeng nodded and waved at Yuehan. "Come, come here for a moment."
Yuehan was dumbfounded. She pointed at herself and stammered, "Huh?
Me? "
Li Chengfeng nodded and smiled at her encouragingly. Yuehan had no choice but to step forward in front of everyone.
She walked to his side and whispered through gritted teeth, "What are you trying to do?!"
Li Chengfeng whispered back, "Don't be afraid, just cooperate with me!"
Shanxue said unhappily at this time, "You brat, aren't you too rude?
What do you think this is?
Do you think any random stray dog or cat can enter the Spiritual Mountain Sect's conference hall? "
Li Chengfeng was surprised. "So in Senior Brother Shanxue's eyes, people from the Spiritual Mountain Sect are like cats and dogs, while outsiders are the ones with higher status?"
Shanxue's face darkened. "That's not what I meant.
I've found a witness! "
Li Chengfeng smiled. "I've found a witness too!"
Shanxue was taken aback, then raged, "She's your servant, don't you know how to avoid suspicion? Can't you provide evidence?!"
Li Chengfeng smiled. "I'm not talking about this case.
I'm talking about another case. "
Shanxue was stunned. "What case?"
Li Chengfeng blinked at Shanxue and grinned evilly. "I'm talking about Grand Senior Brother's attempt to molest my servant, Yuehan!"
There was an uproar in the hall!
Grand Senior Brother, Mieqin and Ouyang Nan were tongue-tied as they looked at each other. Ouyang Nan stuttered, "Is he crazy?"
Grand Senior Sister's eyes widened, her red lips slightly parted. She had the same thought as Ouyang Nan: Is he crazy?
The hall was filled with curses. Zhan Qisheng frowned at Li Chengfeng from within the crowd, secretly observing him and trying to figure out his intentions. His instincts told him that not only was Li Chengfeng not crazy, he was very likely going to play some dirty trick again!
This was someone who did not play by the rules!
Shanxue's face turned an abnormal shade of green and red. He raised his head slightly, and his expression was no longer filled with the excitement of seeing a prey. Instead, it was replaced by anger of being offended!
This lowly thing that was like a worm actually dared to humiliate and slander him in front of everyone's eyes!
Although Kong Yunzhen did not like Shanxue, he was still a member of Hidden Brocade Court. He frowned slightly. "Li Chengfeng, do you know what will happen to you if you have no proof?"
Li Chengfeng nodded. "Of course!
Everyone will know when I'm done! "
Kong Yunzhen nodded. "Then I'll let you finish!"
Li Chengfeng bowed to Kong Yunzhen, then turned to Yuehan and winked. "Yuehan, let me ask you, did Grand Senior Brother look at you just now?"
Yuehan was stunned. She lowered her head and whispered, "Of course."
Shanxue raged, "Nonsense, she walked into the hall. I'm not blind, of course I saw her!"
Li Chengfeng ignored him and turned to Yuehan. "Then let me ask you again. How many times did Grand Senior Brother look at you?"
Yuehan reacted and said shyly, "Maybe three or four times."
Shanxue raged, "When did I look at her three or four times?!"
Li Chengfeng pressed, "How can you prove that you didn't look at her three or four times?!"
Shanxue was speechless, then raged, "How can you prove that I looked at her three or four times?!"
Li Chengfeng looked at Yuehan slowly and smirked. "Please provide your testimony!"
Yuehan tried to hold back her laughter, her face blushing as she exaggerated, "Senior Brother Shanxue did look at me three or four times just now."
Li Chengfeng's face darkened. "Was it three or four eyes? Tell me!"
Yuehan said bashfully, "Four eyes."
Shanxue was furious. "When did I look at her four times?!"
Li Chengfeng pointed at Shanxue. "Here, with this one, there must be four eyes!"
As Li Chengfeng continued to pester them endlessly, some people in the crowd could not help but snicker.
Shanxue became angrier when he heard the laughter. He said angrily, "What nonsense!
I … "
Li Chengfeng saw the murderous intent in his eyes and immediately said to Kong Yunzhen, "Martial Uncle Kong!
Are we not allowed to speak in this meeting hall? "
Shanxue suppressed his murderous intent and said angrily, "The meeting hall does not tolerate nonsense and slander!"
Li Chengfeng immediately said, "Senior Brother Shanxue, how can you prove that I was being unreasonable and slandering you?!"
Shanxue raged, "You're just a lowly servant girl, how can you believe your lies?!"
Li Chengfeng took a step forward and shouted, "Then how can we believe a mere shopkeeper and a mere villager?!"
Shanxue was tongue-tied and speechless.
The crowd was in an uproar!
Almost everyone was tongue-tied. Li Chengfeng continued to pester Shanxue endlessly, using his own words to attack Shanxue's shield, giving him a taste of his own medicine. Shanxue was rendered speechless by his words!
