Chapter 1829: “grant Framing (5)”
Jun Wu Xie could not even be bothered to look at Elder Yue at all but just fixed her gaze upon the Shadow Moon Pce Lord and said in a tone that was neither servile nor hostile: “Is there even anything that I need to exin for? My Lord is both brilliant and wise and would naturally have your own judgement. For things that I have never done, I am of the belief that my Lord would dere me innocent.”
“.....” Elder Yue’s eyes red wide to stare incredulously at Jun Wu Xie. Things have already reached such a stage and Jun Wu Xie could still say such words so calmly, which was truly beyond what he could have expected.
There was no rebuttal, and no rage. The wasn’t even the kind of indignant fury when one was being falsely used and Jun Wu Xie was just merely showing her belief in the Shadow Moon Pce Lord in the most calm demeanor.
Elder Yue had thought Jun Wu Xie would dig her own grave but just that one statement had changed the situationpletely.
Her calmness and the words she said to the Shadow Moon Pce Lord was imperceptibly telling the Shadow Moon Pce something.
It made the Shadow Moon Pce Lord have no choice but to do everything he could to calm himself down, to seriously reassess the veracity of the entire situation, and not allow himself to be led just by a bellyful of rage.
When faced with a disciple who possessed such high gift and had helped him greatly before to say such words rying his strong trust, even if the Shadow Moon Pce Lord felt very much like exploding in rage, he would have to think hard about it first.
A disciple who had such a grave usation pinned onto him was could still be so calm, the Pce Lord just could not help but start to think whether there could have been a misunderstanding within.
The Shadow Moon Pce Lord drew in a deep breath and leaned back in his ruling seat, his eyes narrowed as he looked at the cold and indifferent Jun Wu Xie.
If he were to just carelessly dere Jun Wu Xie’s guilt, it would also bring harm upon the trust and authourity hemanded as the Melted Snow Elixir that Jun Wu Xie presented to him before had helped him greatly afterall, and that was no secret throughout the Shadow Moon Pce.
“Chang Huan, since you believe in my judgement and you feel that you are innocent, then shouldn’t you tell me of everything that happened in this incidentpletely? I am willing to believe in your character, but as so many people are willing to stand as witnesses and if you do not exin a thing or two, basing it just on my trust in you alone will not be able to convince the masses.” The Shadow Moon Pce Lord had taken a great deal of effort before he was willing to suppress the fiery rage he felt in his heart.
Yue Ye’s rtionship with him, in the entire Shadow Moon Pce, only Elder Yue alone knew.
Even if the rage was raging in mes in his heart, he could not let it show too obviously.
The mes that had initially been poised to spread, was gradually quenched by just a few words from Jun Wu Xie. The rage that Elder Yue had sought to fan and incite in the Shadow Moon Pce Lord for him to execute Jun Wu Xie in the shortest time possible had gone down the drain.
And all of this, had long been within Jun Wu Xie’s control.
Elder Yue had wanted to use the feelings that the Shadow Moon Pce Lord held towards Yue Ye to frame her. But Elder Yue had forgotten just one point. And that was the guilty conscience and shame that the Shadow Moon Pce Lord felt!
As the Pce Lord of the Shadow Moon Pce, it was very normal that he would have a girl he likes. But when the target of his affections was a little girl that was just twelve years of age, that normality became a strange situation. Even when he was the Pce Lord, he would not dare to reveal his heart’s true desires or how would he be able to uphold his reputation?
The very thing that Elder Yue wanted to use against her, had coincidentally been reversed by Jun Wu Xie to retaliate against him.
And it was because of thatyer of rtions that made the Shadow Moon Pce Lord still hold certain misgivings despite the raging fury he felt, to have no choice but to look into itpletely, before making a decision on it.
“I have never harmed Yue Ye. Yue Ye had indeede to thank me, but what Elder Yue used me of just now, I did not do it.” Jun Wu Xie said as she looked at the Shadow Moon Pce Lord calmly. The Shadow Moon Pce Lord’s head had by this time cleared up, awoken from the blinding rage.
And now after this.....
It’s her turn to retaliate!
