"Zhang Xing, I'm going to kill you and avenge my dead brothers!"
As soon as Cheng Jun came out, he had a furious expression on his face.
He wailed and was about to charge at Zhang Xing.
Lian Zhi, Shang Qi, and Lu Liang were also glaring at Zhang Xing with bloodshot eyes.
However, they pretended to still have a shred of rationality left in them as they desperately tried to stop Cheng Jun.
"Cheng Jun!
Don't be rash, I believe that Elder Jian will avenge our dead brothers! "
"Ah … don't stop me, let me pass …"
The more the three tried to dissuade him, the crazier Cheng Jun became.
He looked at Zhang Xing as if he wanted nothing more than to eat his flesh and sleep on his skin.
Everyone else in the hall was led on by Cheng Jun, and their faces were filled with hatred.
Hehe!
His acting wasn't good enough, his expression was stiff, and his actions were exaggerated. He couldn't even be considered an amateur actor.
Zhang Xing sneered and shook his head.
"Don't be impatient!"
At this moment, Elder Jian's cold words temporarily suppressed everyone's anger.
He wasn't a brainless elder.
He couldn't convict Zhang Xing just based on the confessions of these four people.
Don't forget, he had another identity. In addition to being in charge of recruiting disciples, he was also the intelligence officer.
He had the same role as the black-robed commander of the Vermilion Bird Sect.
He was also the so-called head of the secret service.
In his heart, he already believed Cheng Jun and the others.
However, he couldn't help but feel that something was off.
After all, Cheng Jun and the others had clean backgrounds and were all direct descendants of the major families.
Zhang Xing's performance was too calm.
Cheng Jun's performance … couldn't be picked out.
However, this contrast made him focus his attention on Zhang Xing.
Firstly, Zhang Xing's background was unknown.
Secondly, he couldn't find his name even after searching through the registration list of rogue cultivators.
Of course, this couldn't be the main point.
The people in charge of registering rogue cultivators often missed some names.
After all, the chances of these people surviving were very low, so it was normal that they didn't pay attention to them.
Thirdly, Zhang Xing's performance on the battlefield was too abnormal.
Why was he so difficult to kill?
Why was his team in perfect condition as well?
He couldn't rule out the possibility that the Vermillion Bird Army was trying to trick him.
They wanted to use this method to push out Zhang Xing so that he could quickly infiltrate the White Tiger Sect.
Fourthly, in the face of Cheng Jun's accusation, Zhang Xing was too calm.
This was completely unlike the behavior of a rogue cultivator.
Only those who had undergone special training would be able to remain calm in such a situation.
These people's minds were very clear. The more dangerous the situation was, the more extraordinary their performance would be.
"Zhang Xing, do you have anything else to say?"
The witness came out. Elder Jian stared at Zhang Xing and slowly sat down.
"This … I only have one thing to say. Cheng Jun and the other three have been captured. They have betrayed the White Tiger Sect and their families.
If you believe their side of the story instead of mine, I have nothing to say. "
Zhang Xing shrugged nonchalantly.
"Zhang Xing, stop quibbling. Haven't the four of us corrected you enough?
We were born and raised in the White Tiger Sect, but your background is a little unclear. "
Cheng Jun was still staring at Zhang Xing with eyes full of hatred.
"Zhang Xing!
Stop quibbling, hurry up and tell the truth! "
"Zhang Xing, it's useless to play these tricks in front of Elder Jian. I suggest that we use torture to interrogate him!"
"Elder Jian, I think we should just use the soul-searching technique!"
"That's right!
Why waste time talking to him? Search his soul! "
"…"
The soul-searching technique couldn't be used casually. If they wronged Zhang Xing, he would be crippled.
Elder Jian hesitated.
