Chapter 411 – Evidence?
Ji Yu hesitated briefly and replied honestly. "Yes. Li Qiang, Liang San, and I come from the same city. The relationship between our families isn't that good. The two of them kept harassing me since I was young. However, compared to Liang San, Li Qiang is worse. In order to force me, he had deployed countless underhand means on me. Thankfully, I managed to avoid them until now."
Listening to this point, Yun Lintian immediately understood everything. The woman in Liang San's words was no other than her.
For fearing Yun Lintian didn't believe her, Ji Yu quickly added. "Because I'm not good at fighting. The moment I landed my feet on the ground, I didn't hesitate to use a conceal talisman Master Gu gave me and hide in the place. After that, I saw Li Qiang chasing Liang San in the distance. Liang San is well known for his speed, but Li Qiang can easily follow him. I immediately knew that Li Qiang was a werewolf."
Yun Lintian's eyes flickered slightly before saying. "Very well. I believe in you. Now, I want you to vote for Zhao Yebai. He's a white-robbed man in the three o'clock position of yours. Can you do it?"
Ji Yu was startled for a second as she didn't understand why Yun Lintian targeted Zhao Yebai instead of Li Qiang. However, she didn't want to make him angry and quickly responded. "No problem. I will vote for him."
Yun Lintian retracted his gaze and turned to Lin Xinyao. "Currently, I can identify at least four werewolves. One is Li Qiang from the Starlight Hall, and the rest is Zhao Yebai and two people who chased after Sister Yang and Miss Hua… And I am pretty sure Wang Jue is a werewolf."
Lin Xinyao listened to Yun Lintian and thought for a moment before replying. "If that's the case, we should vote for Wang Jue first. He's the most dangerous person here."
Yun Lintian glanced at the nine women behind Lin Xinyao and said. "Including me, we only have eleven votes. It's not enough to get Wang Jue on trial. Besides, we don't have evidence. It's better to get rid of Zhao Yebai first."
Lin Xinyao went silent. She glanced at the crowd briefly and stepped forward. "Fellow villagers and doctors, please hear me out. I have encountered three werewolves previously. They are Zhao Yebai, Gui Zu, and Qiao Fan from the White Feather Sect. I can swear on my Frozen Moon Palace to guarantee what I said is absolutely true. I believe everyone knows what to do. We will start with Zhao Yebai first."
Her appearance instantly attracted everyone. Those who were villagers and doctors fully believed in her words right away. After all, Lin Xinyao dared to swear that the Frozen Moon Palace was not something anyone could make a joke about.
"Ridiculous! I know my White Feather Sect and your Frozen Moon Palace don't get along well recently, but does it necessary to unreasonably flame me like this? Honestly, I didn't expect Fairy Lin to have such an unscrupulous character!" At this moment, Zhao Yebai stepped forward and shouted loudly. He put on an aggrieved expression, and his voice was filled with uncontrollable anger and sorrow.
Yun Lintian had to give Zhao Yebai a thumb up for his excellent acting. Whether it was his expression or his voice, everything was on point. At the same time, he was surprised by Lin Xinyao's action. He admitted this method of her was effective, but it could fire back at any time if she lacked evidence.
It was as Yun Lintian had thought. Zhao Yebai was aware Lin Xinyao had no evidence. He seized this chance to ride on the momentum. "Everyone thinks about it. Don't you think it's ridiculous that three werewolves appear on my sect at the same time? Seriously? Out of twenty werewolves and three happen to be us? It's too unbelievable, no matter how you look."
Zhao Yebai's statement wasn't entirely unreasonable. After all, in common sense, the chance of three werewolves appearing in the same group of people should be meager.
Undoubtedly, his words significantly impacted the villagers' and doctors' confidence. Especially when they saw Lin Xinyao remain silent. As much as they were willing to believe in Lin Xinyao, it was difficult for them to make a decision confidently as before.
Yun Lintian had expected this, but he chose to remain silent while observing people's expressions. Except for Wang Jue and Li Na, everyone else had either an agitated or uncertain look on their faces, making it difficult to discern their roles just by looking.
Zhao Yebai glanced at the crowd and secretly smiled in his heart. These people were so easy to manipulate.
"That's right. Do you have evidence, Fairy Lin?" Qiao Fan felt the situation was in his side's favor. It was the best time to put more pressure on the crowd.
Lin Xinyao stood silently without a word. No one knew what she was thinking right now.
As Zhao Yebai was content, Yang Mengli suddenly took a step forward and said coldly. "Evidence? Of course, I have one."
Everyone's eyes immediately focused on her and waited for her further explanation.
Hearing this, Zhao Yebai's eyes narrowed and tried to recall whether he had left any evidence behind. However, no matter how he thought, he couldn't think of anything that could be used as evidence.
Yang Mengli glanced at everyone and said. "Junior Sister Hua and I were chased after by Gui Zu and Qiao Fan the moment we were sent away. Afterward, we managed to escape from them but got ambushed by Zhao Yebai later. If it wasn't because of Senior Sister Lin, we would have been dead by now."
She paused for a moment and turned to Zhao Yebai. "Do you think you are smart? Sorry, I have secretly recorded everything.." Following that, she took out an purple imaginary stone and activated it in front of everyone.
