Chapter 1032: The Anti-Traitor Conference (XII)
Accused of a heinous crime by Qingfeng and shrouded in the shadow of "unkindness and injustice" and "disloyalty and unfilial piety", the life experience of Liu Xunyi, who was once "proud" of Xie Xuan and Xunzhen, inevitably seems insignificant and pale.

It has to be said that Qingfeng used Yuan Xiao and Huan'er to perform a trick of "grafting" and successfully shifted everyone's attention from Liu Xunyi's "life experience" to his "ambiguity" with Shao Qin Wang.

For the Han people who have been baptized with "benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trustworthiness" since childhood and have the national justice deeply engraved in their bones, Qingfeng's move undoubtedly hit the soft spot of the heroes in the martial arts world and also firmly grasped Liu Xunyi's weak spot.

It doesn't matter even if one's own people fight to the death, but once foreign races are involved... whether it is the government or the underworld, everyone will subconsciously work together and share the same hatred for the enemy.

"Now that the truth has been revealed, who is good and who is evil between the leader of Qingfeng and Liu Xunyi and Xie Xuan's group? Who is true and who is false? Who is righteous and who is evil? Who is right and who is wrong? I believe that the heroes of the world will make the final judgment!"

Seeing that the time was ripe, Gu Ri acted decisively and was the first to put a "put an end to" today's farce.

"So that's how it is! Leader Luo angered the Song Dynasty because of his secret communication with the Young Qin King, so he was plotted against by Zhao Yuan and Liu Xunyi." Zhonglimu looked back and forth between Qingfeng and Xie Xuan with a meaningful look, pretending to be enlightened, "In terms of both public and private, it is only natural for Leader Qingfeng to avenge Leader Luo. Lord Xie was concerned about the... special relationship between Liu Xunyi and Leader Luo, so he asked for help from the Young Qin King in the Western Regions. With Xunzhen's help, Liu Xunyi managed to escape again and again, not only recovering from his internal injuries, but also finding a new backer. He suddenly became a popular person. Wang Tianya, the public enemy of the martial arts world and the wanted criminal of the imperial court, became the deputy leader of the "Western Law Wuzong". At this time... Lord Xie may have guessed the sinister intentions of the young Qin King, but he was helpless and could only go along with them. As for the Xiangxi Teng Clan, the Hexi Qin Clan, the Jueqing Valley, the Longxiang Mountain, the Sanyi Gang... some people have a blood relationship with Liu Xunyi and have no choice but to advance and retreat with him. Some people were deceived by the sweet words of Liu Xunyi and Xunzhen, and became accomplices without knowing it. I think... they did not deliberately help the tyrant. "

Zhongli Mu's words are both implicit and tactful, and full of scheming. He compares Xie Xuan to "riding a tiger and being unable to get off", and compares the Hexi Qin family, Longxiang Mountain, and the Sanyi Gang to "being deceived". This can not only ease the current tit-for-tat deadlock, but also inadvertently divide their "alliance".

After all, the forces controlled by people like Xie Xuan, Xiao Zhirou, Teng Sanshi, Qin Ku, and Yun Zhuiyue are enough to occupy half of the martial arts world. Even if Wudang, Shaolin, Kunlun, Kongtong, and Tangmen swear to fight together for life and death, once a melee breaks out between the two sides, the result will still be a lose-lose situation.

More importantly, except for Wudang, other sects have no deep hatred with Liu Xunyi, so it is not worth sacrificing one's life and property.

This matter was not only understood by Xuanming, Yin Baimei, Zhongli Mu, and Tang Yuan, but Qingfeng also knew it well.

Furthermore, Jin Fuyu and Lu Tingxiang have been playing both sides. Sometimes they help Liu Xunyi's faction to stir up trouble, and sometimes they help Qingfeng's faction to argue for their rights. They seem to be impartial and treat everyone equally, but in fact they are fanning the flames with ulterior motives. With them watching from the sidelines, how can Qingfeng concentrate on dealing with Liu Xunyi?
"The Teng Clan in western Hunan, the Qin Clan in western Hexi, the Xianwang Mansion, the Jueqing Valley, the Longxiang Mountain, the Sanyi Gang... Any of them alone are famous and powerful sects that dominate one side. If they secretly conceived a child because of Liu Xunyi, they would definitely become the most powerful force in the martial arts world, even more powerful than the 'Guihai Dao Sect' back then."

As expected, seeing that Zhongli Mu's words were ambiguous and seemed to be intending to leave room for both sides to make concessions, Jin Fuyu weighed the pros and cons again and again and decided to add fuel to the gradually extinguished fire: "If this is true, they can legitimately dominate the Central Plains and trample all the sects under their feet. From then on, they can call the shots in the martial arts world and do whatever they want."

"hiss!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present changed their expressions.

Calling the wind and rain, doing whatever one wants... How heavy are these words? What do they mean? Jin Fuyu couldn't have been unaware of this. His words were forgivable but his heart was detestable, which made Qingfeng, Xuanming and others despise Jin Fuyu who was sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight.

"From what Master Jin said... have you already determined that Qingfeng and his daughter were framed? I, Clan Leader Teng, and Valley Leader Xiao are all despicable people who harbor evil intentions and deceive people?" Xie Xuan suppressed his anger and asked quietly, "Could it be that in your heart, Clan Leader Teng, Valley Leader Xiao, Palace Leader Qin, Gang Leader Xue, these heroes who are famous in the martial arts world, combined, are still no match for a little-known Yuan Xiao and a young girl?"

"Whether or not you are willing to tell the truth has nothing to do with your status. We just want to know the truth, the truth that was deliberately covered up by Palace Master Xie." Before Jin Fuyu could speak, Lu Tingxiang had already refuted, "Palace Master Xie has just personally acknowledged their identities. Could it be that... you want to go back on your word? If they were arranged by the leader of the Qingfeng Alliance, how could they know everything that happened to Liu Xunyi and Xunzhen outside the pass? How could they know so many secrets of the young king of Qin?"

"Not bad!"

Xie Xuan knew that the shock caused by Yuan Xiao and Huan'er in everyone's heart was too great, and it was not something that could be easily offset by a few words. If he forced an explanation, it would only make things worse and full of loopholes. Therefore, instead of arguing with Lu Tingxiang, it would be better to admit frankly: "Xie did ask Xunzhen for help, and Yuan Xiao was indeed our insider planted by Qingfeng, and it was Xie who got the information from Huan'er... A real man should be upright and responsible. I am not afraid to admit what I have done, nor am I afraid of criticism from heroes all over the world. After all, under the eyes of Qingfeng and his daughter, Xie had to use some extraordinary means. However, I can admit what I have done, but I would rather die than compromise on what I have not done, and I am not afraid of confronting others in public." "Oh?" Jin Fuyu raised his eyebrows and asked with interest, "I wonder what Lord Xie has done and what he has not done?"

"To take refuge with the Young King of Qin, intending to bully the Central Plains martial arts world... I dare not even think about these things, let alone do them?" Xie Xuan said in a deep voice, "As for Liu Xunyi's appointment as the deputy leader of the 'Xilu Wuzong', one is to repay Xunzhen for saving his life, and the other is to get more help. After all, his opponent is the powerful leader of the Central Plains martial arts world. If he cannot quickly accumulate strength to make himself stronger, the only result is death."

"I beg you to differ with what Lord Xie said!" Jin Fuyu shook his head slowly in disappointment. "As long as he tells the truth according to the circumstances, there will be heroes in the world to uphold justice for him. How can he die? Could it be that... Lord Xie thinks that the hundreds of heroes in the Central Plains martial arts world are all bullies who only bully the weak and fear the strong?"

Gradually, Xie Xuan sensed something strange between the lines of Jin Fuyu's words. He seemed to be pressing him aggressively, but in fact he was creating opportunities for himself to defend himself.

Obviously, a "one-sided" situation is not what Jin Fuyu is happy to see. He hopes that Qingfeng and Liu Xunyi's factions are evenly matched, and it would be best if... they fight to the death and perish together.

Although Xie Xuan knew that Jin Fuyu had bad intentions, he had no other choice but to go with the flow and asked instead, "Does Master Jin think so?"

"hiss!"

Xie Xuan offended a group of people with just one sentence, which immediately caused dissatisfaction among them.

"Thank you, Lord. I would like to borrow Lord Qin's words to remind you. You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want."

"Whether it is nonsense or not, you will know it as soon as you hear it! On the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month of the year before last, Zhao Yuan and Liu Xunyi colluded inside and outside to set up a trap in the east courtyard of the Xianwang Mansion to assassinate Luo. In this battle, both the court and the Xianwang Mansion suffered heavy casualties. I remember that on the day of the funeral of Luo, Ling Xiaoxiao recalled the tragic scene in the east courtyard with tears in her eyes, which was "corpses everywhere and blood flowing like a river". From this, we can see how fierce the fight was that night? The strange thing is that none of the "heroes" who stayed in the Xianwang Mansion that day woke up? Ling Xiaoxiao's explanation was that Liu Xunyi put a knockout drug in the food, causing all the guests to fall asleep with their heads covered and unconscious. This sounds reasonable, but... it doesn't stand up to scrutiny at all. Who are the guests who stayed in the Xianwang Mansion that night? Shaolin Abbot Xuanming, Kunlun Sect Leader Yin Baimei , Zhong Limu, the leader of Kongtong Sect, Tang Yuan, the general manager of Tang Sect... Each of them is a "big man" who has traveled all over the world and has experienced countless things. Each of them is an "old man" who has been through many storms and waves and has been in and out of the bloody storms. What kind of hidden weapons have they not encountered? What tricks have they not seen? What tricks have they not played? How could they not notice a small packet of knockout drugs? Don't say "I was completely unprepared in the Xianwang Mansion". This statement can only fool some fools who are not familiar with the world. For those who have been walking in the world for many years, it is simply a big joke. Has the food been tampered with? Is there any foreign matter in the tea and wine? They don't even need to use silver needles to detect poison. Just a glance, a sniff, and a sip are enough to judge the truth."

"Thank you, Lord, what you said... does make some sense." Jin Fuyu nodded lightly, "But I don't understand, what exactly do you want to say?"

"I want to say...when faced with a strong opponent, life or death, even the most upright 'hero' will choose the lesser of two evils, or the greater of two benefits." Xie Xuan spoke without restraint, making Xuanming and Yin Baimei blush and at a loss. "One is the powerful leader of the martial arts world, and the other is a traitor planted by the court in the Xianwang Mansion. Which is more important? Which way to go? The 'heroes' who stayed at the Xianwang Mansion that night have given us the most 'wise' answer."

"Xie Xuan, you are about to die, please don't bite people like a mad dog..."

"That's right! Don't confuse the public and talk about something else. You haven't explained clearly the secret collusion between you and Liu Xunyi and the young king of Qin..."

"You have just falsely accused the leader of Qingfeng and Madam Luo, and now you are trying to frame us again. I think you have run out of tricks and have no way to defend yourself..."

"On the seventh night of the twelfth lunar month of the year before last, were you drugged? And by whom? I'm afraid only you know the answer." Facing the furious Yin Baimei, Tang Yuan and others, Xie Xuan turned a blind eye to their aggressive behavior and turned a deaf ear to their sarcasm. He sneered, as if he was mocking himself and others. "The world is going downhill, and people's hearts are not the same as before. How can I believe in justice? How can I believe in the 'heroes' mentioned by Master Jinwu?"
