s this true?”

Zhi Wenzi was very direct.

Mingshi Yin glanced at Zhao Yu.
He did not know what Zhao Yu had said earlier.
After all, Zhao Yu was present when his master killed Xian Gao.
In the end, he feigned surprise.
“He’s dead?! Who killed him?!”

“?”

Zhi Wenzi frowned.

Zhao Yu smiled as he said, “I’ve already told you earlier.
Xiao Gao’s death has nothing to do with us.”

Zhi Wenzi stared at Mingshi Yin and continued to ask, “Where were you last night?”

“What a load of rubbish.
Do I have to report each of my movements to you? I was taking a bath in Zhao Residence.
I even answered the call of nature before I took a bath.
Satisfied?” Mingshi Yin said.

Zhi Wenzhi said, “At the time of Xian Gao’s visit, someone heard the sound of fighting.
I’ve sent people to have a look at the courtyard in the south where the sound of fighting came from.
My men found that the blue tiles have just been freshly replaced, and there are traces of a fight.
How do you explain this?”

Zhao Yu was about to speak when Zhi Wenzi said, “I’m asking him a question, not you, Young Master Zhao.
Please have a sense of propriety.”

The way Zhi Wenzhi had interjected was clearly very rude.

Mingshi Yin raised an eyebrow.
“Why don’t you just accuse me of killing Xian Gao.
Is there a need to beat around the bush?”

Zhi Wenzi nodded before he waved his hand.
“I have enough reasons to suspect you.”

The cultivators outside swarmed into the hall immediately, and those who remained outside quickly surrounded the building.
Some of them even flew up into the air.

At this moment, Zhao Yu roared, “Enough!”

“Young Master Zhao?”

“I’ve always respected the two lords, but what do you take me for? I’ll say this one more time: this matter has nothing to do with my friends.
Now, get lost!” Zhao Yu said.

Zhi Wenzi and Zhi Wuzi were shocked by Zhao Yu’s attitude.
When did the weak Young Master Zhao become so fierce?

“Are you going to defy His Majesty’s orders?” Zhi Wen Zi frowned.

“His Majesty asked you to investigate the murder, not to slander others without evidence.
I’ll speak to His Majesty about your conduct today!” Zhao Yu said angrily.

Zhi Wenzi and Zhi Wuzi stood up and bowed to Zhao Yu.

Zhi Wenzi said, “Young Master Zhao, please don’t be angry.
We admit to being rude today.
We’ll take our leave first.
Farewell.”

Following that, Zhi Wenzi waved his hand and led everyone away.
He had acted very straightforwardly.

Silence returned to the hall.

Mingshi Yin rolled his eyes and said, “It seems like anyone can just trample on you and flaunt their power…”

Zhao Yu’s flushed red before he sighed.
“Those two aren’t simple.
They’re the right-hand men of the emperor of Great Qin.
They handle many affairs on the emperor’s behalf.
Seeing them can be considered seeing the emperor himself.”

Mingshi Yin said sarcastically, “Wow, you’re a hero today then for standing up to them..”

Zhao Yu sighed.
“These two were experts from the old nation of Great Jin.
After Great Jin fell, they followed the emperor of Great Qin and became known as the Emperor’s Gemini.
Their cultivation bases and skills are profound.”

Mingshi Yin asked, “Do you still believe those people?”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yu took a seat.
A disappointed expression could be seen on his face as he said, “You’re right.
I’m a fool.
The fool of Zhao Residence.”

Although it was hard to accept, the cruelty of reality forced Zhao Yu to sober up.

Yu Shangrong looked outside the hall and asked tonelessly, “What are the cultivation bases of the Emperor’s Gemini?”

“I don’t know.
I think they should be stronger than Xi Qishu,” Zhao Yu replied.

After Zhi Wenzi and Zhi Wuzi left the Zhao Residence with their men, Zhi Wuzi asked, “Elder brother, are you sure?”

Zhi Wenzi nodded.
“Yes.
That young man killed Xian Gao and Xi Qishu, and the young man holding the sword is the accomplice.”

“Then, why didn’t you capture them?” Zhi Wuzi asked, puzzled.

“There’s a new discovery,” Zhi Wenzi said as he turned to look in the direction of the Zhao Residence, “They’re stained with the smell of Xi Qishu.
No matter how hard they try, they can’t get rid of it.
Moreover, they reek of blood as well.
This isn’t something you can sense with cultivation…”

“I, naturally, trust Elder Brother in this regard,” Zhi Wuzi said.

Zhi Wenzi continued to say expressionlessly, “About the new discovery I mentioned… I smelled a unique scent on that young man.”

“What is it?”

“Meng Mingshi…”
