As soon as the thought crossed my mind, I couldn't help but laugh inwardly.
What nonsense!
Damn it, if he hadn't been bribed, how could the Triad Tribunal have happened?
I suspect that it was precisely because he was bought off that Zhengyang sold me out.
So whose bloodstains are on the floor?
Are they from my father and grandfather's old comrades? They refused to accept the Dong Family's terms, so they were eliminated?
That's right, it must be!!
Our Dong Family still has a few friends in the Sun and Moon Alliance. If they wanted to take me down, it would inevitably upset those old acquaintances from the Ge Family. So it would be quite simple to wipe them all out together!
I think that before I arrived here, a civil strife had already broken out. Those who leaned towards me were killed, while the neutral Aman survived but left after achieving their goals. The rest are all prepared to sacrifice me!
Suddenly, a thought struck me—could Zhengyang also have been eliminated!?
But then I quickly shook my head and chuckled softly. No matter who else was purged, he couldn't possibly be among them. I had heard long ago that Zhengyang was related by blood to the current Sun-Moon Alliance Leader, but the specifics of that relationship have always been taboo. No one really knows or understands it fully; it's just a half-understood rumor. However, since this rumor has spread so widely, it can't be entirely baseless; perhaps it has just been suppressed, leaving only fragments of information circulating. Moreover, Zhengyang is also the next generation's Leader of the Sun and Moon Alliance—this has already been decided.
Considering all of this, how could he possibly be killed?
He is tied to that person sitting above with the same rope!
Winning over that individual essentially means winning over Zhengyang!
After thinking it through, I believe that the one who sold me out is still Zhengyang!
Not only did he sell me out, but under the guise of being my friend, he deceived all the acquaintances of the Xia Family into believing him. They followed him to the Defense Hall, and in the end, it was a complete trap!
He didn't just betray me; he betrayed the entire Xia Family!
What about Bald Qiang and his crew? Are they with Zhengyang?
No!
I absolutely refuse to believe that!
I may have been blind to Zhengyang, but how could I possibly be mistaken about Bald Qiang? And Big Mouth Lee —he's greedy, yes, but he hasn't lost his conscience! I've heard it before; he's a discarded disciple of Maoshan Dao and isn't well-regarded there. There's no way he would team up with that Gray-Robed Taoist who was bought off by the Dong Family!
Considering all this, Bald Qiang and Big Mouth Lee probably haven't joined forces with Zhengyang to set me up!
Thinking of this made my heart twitch painfully, blood dripping inside me as I looked at the mottled bloodstains on the ground. My eyes burned, and my throat felt tight.
In a collapsing nest, how can there be unbroken eggs?
This time, you either remain neutral or side with the Dong Family. Those who stand with me have likely already met their doom!
How could Bald Qiang and the others escape this fate?
Zhengyang, damn you!
I roared inwardly, wanting nothing more than to explode right now, to spill blood across the hall and slaughter everyone inside, even if it meant losing my own life!
But I can't! It's not the right time yet!
Lu Jianguo had yet to eliminate the snipers surrounding us. If I were to act now, even with a determination to fight to the death, it probably wouldn't have much effect. The snipers were targeting our heads; as soon as we showed ourselves, we would be shot down!
I had to wait and continue to buy time.
Moreover, I was curious about what the Leader wanted!
Money?
He didn't need it; the Sun and Moon Alliance had plenty of money at his disposal.
Power?
He still didn't need it; he was already the highest authority in the Sun and Moon Alliance. Even the Dong Family had to listen to him. What more power could he possibly want?
After thinking it over, I truly couldn't understand what the Dong Family could offer him to win him over!
I could only observe the situation and buy time for Lu Jianguo!
Thus, this Triad Tribunal had to continue!
I was eager to know what could move the Leader of the Sun and Moon Alliance so much that he made such a huge sacrifice, eliminating everyone related to our Xia Family. This was bound to deplete his strength! I just couldn't comprehend it. Until I figured it out, even if I died, I wouldn't be able to rest in peace!
"Alright, the defense for the first charge has concluded. Xia Ji means that he did not betray anyone; it was all unintentional. He also did not intend to submit a death warrant; this is all a scheme by the Water Blue Sect! The deaths of the Dong Family were self-inflicted! I understand this."
At that moment, the Leader spoke again, nodding repeatedly before suddenly changing his tone: "Then what about Dong Ba's brother? You must have killed him; there is evidence! His brother had no reason to harm your friends; there was no enmity. Such actions are not permissible within the Sun and Moon Alliance!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a strange cackling laughter echoed through the hall. An old man dressed in tattered black robes slowly emerged from where the Corpse Driver stood, wearing a melon-shaped hat. Could this be Dong Ba's ancestor?
Unexpectedly, this guy had been lurking in the Corpse Driver all along. He truly managed to escape alive. I couldn't recognize him at first glance, but it was no wonder; the figures in Corpse Driver all looked nearly dead. When he crouched there, it was a case of birds of a feather flocking together, and their faces were so pale that I couldn't discern any individual color. It was normal for me not to recognize him!
"I now accuse him of personal vendetta and the murder of innocents!!!"
The Uncorrupted Bones stared at me ominously, enunciating each word: "No need for evidence, right? Several masters cast spells together and have already seen the memory Scene from me. He personally severed Dong Liu's head!!" Dong Liu was Dong Ba's brother!
"It seems the Sun and Moon Alliance doesn't care about private brawls?"
I sneered coldly and said lightly, "Dong Liu was merely killed by accident; blame Dong Ba for using him as a shield! Besides, all of this was arranged for me to do by you!"
As soon as these words left my mouth, there was a moment of silence, followed by the furious outburst from the Dong Family's Old Corpse!
"You're talking nonsense!!!"
Old Corpse screamed at that moment: "I am precisely what Dong Ba cultivated with Corpse Pills. I know very well that he should still have a Corpse Pill on Dong Liu; you must have killed him for the Corpse Pill!"
"To add a crime, what excuse is lacking?"
I replied lightly. As for the Corpse Pill? How could I admit to that!
At that moment, I waved my hand and said to Old Corpse: "I've never seen any Corpse Pill; don't slander me!"
"You—"
Old Corpse pointed at me fiercely and said: "Then how do you explain how your ghost broke through so much?"
Indeed, I did take a Corpse Pill from Dong Liu and gave it to Xiao Xiao. The masters of the Sun and Moon Alliance didn't see it from Old Corpse because by then, Dong Liu was already dead. I pried the Corpse Pill from his corpse, so whether I obtained the Corpse Pill or not would likely leave the Sun and Moon Alliance members questioning in their hearts since that segment of Scene could not be excavated from Old Corpse; by that time, Old Corpse had long been absent from the Dong Family!
"I've accepted this point, so I remain calm: 'This battle was brutal, and my friend gained insights from the slaughter. Isn't it normal for him to break through?'"
Uncorrupted Bones was furious, yet couldn't find the words to retort.
"Oh? Are you denying all of this?"
At that moment, the Sun-Moon Alliance Leader sitting high above suddenly spoke lightly, "However, I still have evidence—both witnesses and material proof!"
More charges?
I couldn't help but chuckle; it must have taken a lot of effort to gather so many accusations. I looked at the Leader with a hint of mockery and said, "Since there are witnesses, why not bring them out? I'd like to see who I've supposedly wronged this time."
As soon as I finished speaking, a loud voice suddenly came from outside the back door of the Defense Hall: "It's me! Xia Ji! Do you dare deny what you've done to me?"
The moment I heard that voice, my expression changed!
Because I was all too familiar with that voice—Dong Ba?
He... he was alive?
