"Bro, bro, why are you so heartless?"
Bao Ge asked while trembling. He couldn't hide the respect on his face. It was obvious that he felt that I didn't give young master Zhang a chance.
After all, with my strength, controlling that gun from a distance was as easy as flipping my hand.
"I'll emphasize it again. I didn't do it."
I said with a straight face. I was a bit annoyed. At this moment, I was also confused. I realized a problem. If I didn't guess wrong, the enemy hiding in the dark wanted to use this chance to frame me. I have to say, this plan was very successful.
At this moment, in front of everyone, even if I denied it, it wouldn't be of much use.
"Okay, okay, okay. It wasn't you. It was young master Zhang's own fault." Bao Ge smiled apologetically. He was afraid that I would blame him if I didn't agree with him.
These policemen weren't weak either. They immediately cleared the crowd. If they followed the procedure, they would have to lock down the scene and collect evidence. However, they saw the whole process with their own eyes, so they didn't have to do that.
Soon, Captain Liu got in touch with the higher-ups. According to them, it was young master Zhang's own fault. They didn't want to have anything to do with me.
Captain Liu was a smart person. After getting the order, he started to deal with the aftermath. Actually, as one of the participants, he had to take out his gun in a public place. Originally, he wanted to scare young master Zhou a bit, but he didn't expect the situation to get out of hand in an instant.
In just half the afternoon, the news had spread throughout most of Beijing. From the high officials to the common people, almost everyone was enthusiastically discussing it. The Beijing officials also gave a definite conclusion. They said that Young Master Zhang had borrowed Captain Liu's gun in a playful manner. He had been playing around with it, but he didn't expect that the gun would accidentally fire and he would die an untimely death.
Although that was the case, there were many people in the audience at the scene. So, the truth of the situation spread like wildfire.
The ones who were the most infuriated were none other than the Zhang Clan. Even though Young Master Zhang was just an illegitimate child with no actual status, his actions were undoubtedly provoking the authority of the Zhang Clan. On the other hand, the other three clans were gloating over the Zhang Clan's misfortune, wanting to see how the Zhang Clan would react.
This wasn't the first time the Zhang family had suffered a loss. Not long ago, they had lost more than two billion renminbi in the dojo challenge. Now, they had lost a son. The senior members of the Zhang family couldn't stay calm. They had called for an emergency meeting to denounce me.
Grandmaster Chen got the news in time. He called me and asked me what was going on. I didn't hide anything and told him the truth. When he heard about the dark power, he kept silent for a while.
"It's another demonic cultivator!" His tone was very solemn.
"Yes, Master. At that time, I wanted to investigate, but the situation at the scene was quite chaotic, and the other party had already gone far away."
I roughly recalled. How should I put it? That weak dark power, although very pure, was still lacking compared to the Blood Demon.
If I wasn't mistaken, it shouldn't be the Blood Demon. It was most likely the Witch Yeji. Strange, I had no enmity with her. Why would she frame me like this?
Although someone had calmed the storm for me now, the famous families in the capital all thought that I was an unreasonable person. After all, it was just a trivial matter, yet I wanted to kill someone in public. It could be said that I was openly defying the law. Many people searched for me on the Internet. Even the reputation of the Guowei Martial Arts School had been affected to a certain extent, let alone the leader, Grandmaster Chen.
It was possible that the Witch Yeji was in cahoots with the Blood Demon. Grandmaster Chen had previously said that the Witch Yeji had disappeared hundreds of years ago. It was said that she had died in the hands of a peerless expert. However, hundreds of years had passed, and she had inexplicably made a move again. This was really troublesome.
The reappearance of a demonic cultivator was definitely a dangerous signal. Grandmaster Chen said that I didn't need to worry about it and that the True Martial Pavilion would deal with it secretly. However, I still felt that this matter seemed to revolve around me.
As for why he wanted to frame me, it was a bit incomprehensible. Previously, the Blood Demon lived in my Dantian, and it was a completely mutually beneficial situation. He actually had the chance to kill me, but he didn't do so.
Especially that night, when the Blood Demon occupied my body, he couldn't hide his fascination when he mentioned the Pure Yang bloodline.
"Wait a minute. I have to take a call first." Just as Grandmaster Chen was about to continue talking to me, another call came in.
Taking advantage of this time, I explained it to Guan Ruolan. She was stunned at first, but then she suddenly understood.
"Stinking brat, I knew that you wouldn't kill the innocent!"
After saying that, Guan Ruolan couldn't help but look worried, "According to what you're saying, the power of the demonic cultivators has already infiltrated into the capital?!"
"Yes, you can say that." Right now, I wasn't too sure how many demonic cultivators there were in the country of Hua Xia besides the Blood Demon.
Speaking of which, if I wanted to make an accurate conclusion about the demonic cultivators, then those martial artists who went mad could also be counted as one of them. As the saying goes, one's appearance is born from the heart, and anger can turn into a demon. For those martial artists who are more greedy, when they break through in their cultivation, they may develop a demon in their heart. If they can't endure it, then they will either lose a part of their cultivation or turn into a demon!
However, the threshold to become a demon wasn't low. At the very least, one had to be a martial artist at the peak of negative jing. In addition, there were some external factors. In the past hundreds of years, there weren't many examples of martial artists turning into demons.
Could it be that I awakened the Blood Demon, allowing him to reappear in the world and raise his arms, creating the necessary conditions for martial artists to go mad?
To put it bluntly, the fact that the demonic cultivators dared to act presumptuously in the capital meant that they were challenging the True Martial Pavilion and even the entire martial world!
I felt that if I didn't deal with it seriously and continued to pretend to be deaf and mute, I was afraid that it would only encourage their arrogance.
