Beg for mercy on the spot
Wang Chongming saw Xiao Feng point the finger at him and subtly looked at the Yaogu Disciples behind him.
Sure enough, they were like grass on the wall, all turning their gaze towards him.
Once his answer didn't satisfy everyone, it was very possible he would be arrested by them as the murderer.
Fortunately, Wang Chongming had his own set of excuses, and he slightly raised his head: "I was with Tong Yuan all last night and never separated."
This way, with Tong Yuan as a witness, this matter wasn't so simple.
Of course, this was just his side of the story and couldn't be completely trusted.
"A few people go ask. I believe you also don't want this matter to be vaguely concluded."
The Yaogu Disciples looked at Wang Chongming, their eyes revealing a hint of distrust.
Just as Xiao Feng said, he wasn't the only one who could kill the Yaogu Valley Master.
If Wang Chongming attacked while the Yaogu Valley Master was unprepared, it was highly possible he could hunt down the Yaogu Valley Master, perhaps without even resistance.
Soon, several Disciples left and walked towards the Medicine Valley Hall, where Tong Yuan and Tong Susu were located.
At this time, both Xiao Feng and Wang Chongming remained in the Pill Refining Room, neither intending to leave.
"Everyone in Medicine Valley knows each other's strength. Whether you killed him or not, a simple inquiry should provide a conclusion."
Seeing that all the evidence pointed to Xiao Feng, Wang Chongming naturally wanted Xiao Feng to voluntarily admit to killing the Yaogu Valley Master.
In a moment, the Disciple who had just left returned from the doorway: "According to the Junior Valley Master, Wang Chongming was indeed with him yesterday."
"Listen, I didn't lie to you."
Xiao Feng learned that Wang Chongming had no time to leave, and his brow furrowed: "This... then you can't be the murderer."
Excluding him, it's believed that no one else in Medicine Valley had the possibility.
The only people the Yaogu Valley Master could let his guard down around were his descendants and this son-in-law, and they both had no time to act.
As for the other Yaogu Disciples, even if they had the ability to act, it's believed they didn't have the ability to kill someone.
"You... what evidence do you have to show that this wasn't done by you?"
The Yaogu Disciples all looked at Xiao Feng, waiting for his answer.
He had no witness beside him, and trying to justify himself wasn't as simple as expected.
"If I killed the Yaogu Valley Master, do you think... the Junior Valley Master could escape from my hands smoothly?"
As soon as these words came out, many Yaogu Disciples present were stunned in place.
Indeed, if even the Yaogu Valley Master died in Xiao Feng's hands, to control Medicine Valley, he would only need to kill the Junior Valley Master, and then no one would have the strength to seek revenge.
At this moment, Xiao Feng had a candidate in his mind.
Moreover, this person had a very high possibility; only he possessed the power to completely dissipate Tong Yuan's Nascent Soul Stage strength.
"Could it be that the one who acted was Jing Shen?"
At this time, Li Luo saw his incessant chatter and leaned towards Xiao Feng: "This Wang Chongming is useless now. Why not kill him and avenge Si Tianyi by the way?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Chongming's incessant chatter abruptly stopped, and he dared not say what came next.
He understood that continuing to speak would only bring about his demise, something he absolutely could not accept.
Xiao Feng saw that Li Luo subtly intended to act, and quietly looked at Wang Chongming, the Killing Intent within him already uncontrollable.
Wang Chongming sensed the Killing Intent gradually solidifying and quietly retreated a few steps.
Seeing that he was about to leave, many Yaogu Disciples blocked the exit, not allowing anyone here to leave.
The Yaogu Valley Master's death hasn't found someone responsible yet, so no one can be allowed to leave no matter what.
Wang Chongming saw that they had completely blocked his only route, and with a Face full of despair, he looked back at Xiao Feng, discovering that both of them already intended to act.
Just from their expressions, it could be seen that both of them intended to kill him.
"Thump..."
The sound came from his knees; he actually just knelt on the ground like that, his Face full of remorse: "Please spare me, I... I'm useful to you."
At this moment, as if he had found a life-saving straw, he knelt and came before Xiao Feng: "I can refine the Nine Revolutions Revival Pill. If you kill me, no one will be able to refine it."
Xiao Feng looked at Wang Chongming's solemn expression and took a deep breath: "Nine Revolutions Revival Pill?"
The reason for not killing him wasn't precisely because he possessed such power.
At this moment, Li Luo quietly walked over from the side and stood before Xiao Feng: "I think... we can let him try to refine this pill."
If he couldn't successfully refine it, he should naturally be killed, and no consideration should be given to him.
Of course, if he could refine it, he would have a glimmer of hope.
Xiao Feng saw Li Luo's shrewd expression, felt that this matter could work, and nodded: "Then it shall be as you say. I want to see if he has such power."
To prevent him from escaping, Xiao Feng looked at Wan Feiyu beside him: "You two stay here. I will personally guard you. It's best not to play any tricks."
The Yaogu Disciples saw Xiao Feng and Wang Chongming reaching certain terms and hurriedly came before them: "You... what about our Yaogu Valley Master's death?"
Having finally heard the two of them spare him, how could Wang Chongming let the Yaogu Disciples bring up other matters? He glared fiercely at them.
"For the Yaogu Valley Master's death, you should look for clues outside, not here bothering us. Go find clues quickly."
"This..."
The Disciples within the valley exchanged glances, knowing that their strength was inferior to Xiao Feng's.
Now, Xiao Feng had no intention of helping them, so saying anything more would be futile.
Soon, the Yaogu Disciples left one after another, leaving only the two of them, Xiao Feng and Li Luo, inside.
"You can go ahead and refine the Nine Revolutions Revival Pill. We will be guarding you. If you play any tricks, I don't mind killing you."
At this time, with no Yaogu Disciples here, killing these two would be effortless for them.
Wan Feiyu and Wang Chongming exchanged glances and readily agreed.
Xiao Feng came beside them, quietly sat down, his eyes fixed on them, lest the two of them play any tricks.
Wan Feiyu looked at Xiao Feng constantly standing beside him, feeling somewhat uncomfortable: "Can you stop watching us? We don't want anyone to secretly learn."
Xiao Feng saw Wan Feiyu's impatient expression and snorted coldly: "You only have half a day to refine the pill I need. If you can't refine it, you will die here."
Not leaving them much time, he quietly closed his eyes, waiting for Wan Feiyu and Wang Chongming to start refining the pill.
Wan Feiyu saw Xiao Feng's mocking expression, clenched his teeth hard, unwilling to let him stay here.
Unfortunately, the strength of the two of them was truly too weak, and they had no right to choose, so they could only temporarily give up.
"Do you really want to refine the Nine Revolutions Revival Pill for him?"
Wan Feiyu looked at Wang Chongming beside him, feeling somewhat indignant in his heart.
However, he had no right to choose and could only see if Wang Chongming had other plans.
