Chapter 201 - Overturn
Hua Changyan’s expression immediately became extremely solemn when she heard this. She instantly stood up straight and vowed, “Don’t worry, Lord Venerable!”
“If I had really done those things, I will end myself without Lord Venerable’s help.”
Actually, Hua Changyan was not the kind of person who was afraid of death. If she encountered a situation where she would definitely die, she wouldn’t be afraid of blood and death.
She could die, but she could not die with the infamy of betraying the Daoist temple by killing her master.
Wang Yi nodded slightly. At the same time, he was even more certain that there was something else going on.
After all, even with his terrifying perception, he couldn’t sense any traces of Hua Changyan lying.
At this moment, Su Shiya rolled her eyes at Wang Yi. Then, she took Hua Changyan’s hand and said with a smile, “Don’t let Ah Yi scare you.”
“Just stay here in peace. Stay as long as you want.”
Wang Yi shook his head slightly when he saw this. He could not help but feel a little helpless. He thought to himself that Su Shiya was a classic example of someone who followed her five senses.
Seeing that Hua Changyan was weak and beautiful, Su Shiya probably felt that she was not a bad person.
Tap! Tap! Tap!
At that moment, there was a series of knocks on the front door of the villa.
Wang Yi turned around when he heard the commotion and saw Fang Yuan standing outside the door with Fang Mingze and Tang Zhenyu.
There was no need to even think about it. It was definitely because of Xu Liancheng that the three of them had rushed over immediately.
After all, Wang Yi had not informed anyone of his return. Furthermore, his strength made it impossible for anyone to discover him.
Wang Yi seemed to be in a good mood. He waved at the three of them and said with a smile, “Don’t just stand there. Come in.”
The three of them hurriedly walked into the courtyard when they heard that. Fang Yuan’s gaze swept across the dozens of people who had fainted on the ground and could not help but feel a little frightened.
It could be said that none of these people were weak. There were more than ten Grandmaster-Realm experts, and there were also several people who were at the same level as him. There was even a top Grandmaster-Realm expert present.
When they arrived, the three of them bowed in unison and said, “Greetings, Sir and Madam!”
Wang Yi nodded slightly, indicating that there was no need to be so polite. Su Shiya was familiar with them and warmly invited them into the house.
In the hall, everyone sat down. Su Shiya skillfully took out some tea leaves and spiritual spring water and prepared to make tea for everyone.
Hua Changyan blended in quite quickly and started working beside Su Shiya.
Meanwhile, Fang Yuan and the others could not help but be speechless as they watched Hua Changyan busying herself.
Of course, they recognized this genius who had been expelled by the Tianzuo Daoist temple and was wanted by them.
They were also very curious. What relationship did this person share with Wang Yi?
However, when their gazes swept across Hua Changyan’s curvaceous figure and her peerless beauty, they already had a faint guess in their hearts.
If it was really as they had guessed, and Hua Changyan was lucky enough to catch Wang Yi’s eye, even if she was charged with killing her master, no one would be able to do anything to her.
After all, the one who died was only a grandmaster. No one would find trouble with a Venerable for someone who was already dead.
As long as Wang Yi was willing to pay a small price, or even if he did not have to pay any price at all, he would be able to erase all the sins and responsibilities of Hua Changyan.
However, if that was really the case, their impression of Wang Yi would inevitably worsen.
Of course, this was only their own guess. Only the people involved knew the exact situation.
However, they were certain of one thing. In the current situation, those martial artists who had come for the Tianzuo Daoist temple’s bounty would probably return in disappointment.
No one in the entire Langya Domain could touch Hua Changyan, let alone the experts gathered in Cang City.
Of course, Wang Yi saw the abnormality in everyone’s expressions and the confusion in their eyes. He also knew what they were worried about. Before they could speak, he pointed at Hua Changyan.
Then, he said calmly, “There’s still something fishy about her killing her master and betraying the Daoist temple. We need to investigate it carefully.”
“Of course, if she really did such a treasonous thing, she will be dealt with according to the law. I will never stop the authorities from doing so.”
Fang Yuan heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. They were really afraid that Wang Yi would disregard the law for the sake of beauty, even though he did have the right to be above everything.
However, since Wang Yi said that there was something hidden behind this matter, the meaning was different. This meant that a Venerable was trying to overturn the case for Hua Changyan.
As long as news of this matter spread, the guardian of Tianzuo City and all the ordinary students in the Daoist temple would definitely take it seriously and re-examine the case of Hua Changyan killing her master.
Fortunately, Wang Yi also promised that he would absolutely not cover up for Hua Changyan.
This prevented anyone from distorting the facts and falsifying evidence to overturn the case in an attempt to please the Venerable.
After all, the crime of deceiving a Venerable was not small. If someone were to suck up to a Venerable with this method, it would not be worth it.
Fang Yuan and the other two looked at Hua Changyan again and could not help but think. They did not believe that this person had nothing to do with Wang Yi.
After all, no matter how talented or bewitching she was, this was only in the eyes of ordinary people.
Even before she was wanted, she was not qualified to come into contact with a Venerable with her identity and status, let alone have a Venerable vouch for her and overturn the case for her.
In the end, if he could really prove that Hua Changyan was indeed wronged, she might become the wife of a Venerable in the future.
Although she was definitely not the first wife, her status would be really high and noble.
Of course, Wang Yi did not know what the three of them were thinking. Otherwise, he would definitely have used his scolding skills from his previous life to let them know what the consequences of wrongly accusing someone were.
His willingness to help Hua Changyan was actually very simple. First, it was because of Su Shiya’s attitude.
Second, It was very likely that Hua Changyan had been wrongly accused. With her talent, it would indeed be a pity if she died.
Wang Yi dared to swear that he was definitely not willing to take action because he was after her beauty.
No matter what Fang Yuan and the other two were thinking, after hearing Wang Yi’s words, they replied respectfully, “Sir, don’t worry. I will definitely convey your will to the Guardian of Tianzuo City later.”
It had to be said that this was all thanks to Wang Yi’s Skynet system that the communication between the giant cities became extremely easy.
Wang Yi nodded slightly, tacitly agreeing to Fang Yuan’s suggestion.
He had some impression of the Guardian of Tianzuo City. He seemed to be a Grandmaster-Realm powerhouse who had just entered Rank-9.
