Ye QingChen looked around. He had seen these Beggar's Sect disciples before in the past. The four people in the lead were the four elders of Beggar's Sect.
Elder Wu, the leader of the four elders, mustered up his courage and said,"His Highness the Sword King's Brocade Guard is in charge of the murder cases in Jianghu. The death of our Sect's Deputy Sect Leader Ma Dayuan at home is also one of them. That traitor Qiao Feng's cultivation is extremely high. Our sect is no match for him. We can only ask the Sword King to capture him.”
Ye QingChen said,"As for any murder case in the martial world, even if you don't report it, the Embroidered Uniform Guards will definitely investigate." But I don't understand. Do you want to investigate the murderer of Ma Dayuan, or do you want to arrest Qiao Feng?”
The four elders of Beggar's Sect were stunned. Elder Wu said,""Qiao Feng is the murderer of Ma Dayuan. Aren't the two the same?”
Ye Qingchen shook his head."The difference between heaven and earth is different. If you report Ma Dayuan's murder, the Royal Guards can accept it. But if the Jinyiwei wanted to catch Qiao Feng, they had to find evidence of his crime first.”
Hundreds of Beggar's Sect disciples were dumbfounded. They had witnessed the elders criticizing Qiao Feng in the apricot forest.
There were also all kinds of witnesses who appeared in turn. The evidence was already conclusive. Why did it not work when it came to the Sword King?
The four elders of Beggar's Sect were filled with anger and did not dare to flare up. Elder Wu said,"Since that's the case, I'll report Ma Dayuan's murder. He is the vice leader of our Beggar's Sect. No matter who killed him, our Beggar's Sect will not let him off.”
"Alright, the Jinyiwei will take this case.”
Ye QingChen simply nodded.
Elder Song suddenly thought of something and frowned.""Could it be that the Sword King thinks that the person who killed Ma Dayuan wasn't Qiao Feng?”
"What is it? How is this possible!"
The other three elders immediately retorted.
Ye QingChen smiled and swept his gaze across the Beggar's Sect disciples. Suddenly, he fixed his gaze on a person and said,""If you want to find the real murderer, I'll catch one for you now.”
After saying that, Ye QingChen raised his hand and a terrifying suction force erupted. A white-haired old man flew out from the crowd and fell in front of everyone.
The Beggar's Sect disciples looked over and said in unison,""Elder Xu!"
Beggar's Sect's disciples were the best in the world. Even if they were the elders in their own sect, there were probably not many disciples who could recognize them all.
However, there was one elder that all the disciples would never forget. That was Elder Xu!
Because he was the most senior elder in Beggar's Sect, the previous Sect Master Wang Jiantong had to call him Martial Uncle, and the current Sect Master Qiao Feng had to take the initiative to greet him when he saw him.
"Kneel down!"
Ye QingChen's voice froze, as if a heavy weight was pressing down on Elder Xu's shoulders, causing him to stumble and kneel on the ground, his face filled with pain.
The four elders of Beggar's Sect were shocked and angry. Elder Wu shouted,""Your Highness Sword King, Elder Xu is the third generation elder of Beggar's Sect. How can you humiliate him like this?”
Ye QingChen sneered,"What a great third generation elder. Ask him who killed Ma Dayuan."”
The Beggar's Sect disciples were shocked again and looked at Elder Xu suspiciously.
Elder Xu quickly said: Ma Dayuan was killed by Qiao Feng, this matter has been publicly discussed in the Apricot Forest.”
"How dare you! How dare you spout nonsense in front of this king!”
Ye QingChen spat out his inner strength, turning it into a thick Vital Spirit and hitting Elder Xu's chest.
"ARGH!"
Elder Xu raised his head and screamed. His eyes met with Ye QingChen's dark purple left eye, and his mind was completely taken away.
"I want to ask you, who killed Ma Dayuan?”Ye QingChen said in a dignified voice.
Elder Xu revealed a look of struggle on his face. In the end, he still said honestly,"Yes, it's Patriarch of Law Enforcement Bai Shijing and Eight-Bag Branch Leader Quan Guanqing.”
"What?!"
Everyone was in an uproar. They had never expected such a shocking reversal.
Ye QingChen was expressionless as he continued to ask,""How do you know about this?"
"Because I was there.”Elder Xu was completely intimidated by the illusion. He said honestly,"Before Ma Dayuan was killed, Kang Min invited me and Quan Guanqing to a small wooden house outside the Apricot Forest. When we arrived at the scene, we witnessed Bai Shijing severely injure Ma Dayuan with the ? Throat Seizing Hands ?. Quan Guanqing then followed up with a palm strike.”
After he finished speaking, all the Beggar's Sect disciples fell into shock.
"Impossible," Elder Song said loudly."Patriarch of Law Enforcement, Leader Quan, and you, Elder Xu, why did you let Kang Min instigate you?"”
Elder Xu's face turned red as he stammered,""The three of us and Kang Min had an affair earlier. She threatened us with this matter, so we had no choice but to comply.”
Boom!
These words were like a bolt from the blue, striking the Beggar's Sect's disciples like lightning. Even Huang Rong and the others were dumbfounded.
One had to know that Elder Xu was eighty-seven years old, and his seniority was enough to make Kang Min his great-great-granddaughter. Even if he heard it with his own ears, it was still absurd.
Only Ye QingChen was able to remain calm, even though he was also shocked by the original novel.
Elder Wu's face was filled with grief and indignation as he said in pain,""In that case, you're saying that you've been wronged and that it was all the doing of the four of you?”
Elder Xu nodded guiltily and begged,"This old man was also a momentary flirt. It's too late to regret after falling into Kang Min's trap. I hope all my brothers can forgive me.”
"Kang Min, what a vicious woman! My Beggar's Sect is so big, but I'm being played by a woman. It was a great humiliation to kill each other and force Gang Leader Qiao away. If this matter were to spread, Beggar's Sect would never be able to raise its head again!”
Elder Song shouted in grief and indignation.
The other Beggar's Sect disciples also had guilty expressions on their faces.
Elder Wu knocked his head thrice at Ye Qingchen and shouted,""Thank you, Your Highness, for finding the mole. However, that venomous woman Kang Min, Bai Shijing, and Quan Guanqing had already escaped. We are unable to chase after them.”
"Sword King, please uphold justice!”All the Beggar's Sect disciples kowtowed.
Ye QingChen said,"The Embroidered Uniform Guards are in charge of the murder cases in the martial world. Kang Min colluded with the adulterers Bai Shijing and Quan Guanqing to plot to kill her husband, Ma Dayuan. The heavens cannot tolerate this. Even if they escape to the ends of the earth, this king will hunt them down and not show mercy!"”
