CHAPTER 1077: CHAPTER 1077: SO WHAT IF I HIT YOU?

Xiao Zheng’s demeanor remained calm and unchanged, as if he had just heard an ordinary piece of news. He smiled faintly and said, "I have indeed heard about this matter, but what does it have to do with me?"

Zhuge Youxuan secretly praised Xiao Zheng’s skillfulness; his performance was flawless. If things continue this way, they might not get anything out of it.

Zhuge Youxuan couldn’t help but hesitate internally: Should he continue to probe with words to expose the Evil God’s flaw, or should he launch a direct attack?

If he wanted to use words to make Xiao Zheng slip up, Zhuge Youxuan didn’t have the information for that.

In the end, a ruthless glint flashed in Zhuge Youxuan’s eyes, and he decided to get straight to the point.

He let out a long, hearty laugh that shook the entire room, "Evil God, you say this has nothing to do with you, but I feel you’re highly suspicious."

Long Qie, upon hearing this, instantly widened his eyes and slammed the table with a loud snap, shouting, "How dare you! Zhuge Youxuan, you better think about the consequences of speaking this way!"

Since the discussion had reached this point, Zhuge Youxuan naturally maintained a tough stance, sneering, "If I remember correctly, on the day our medicine pavilion was robbed, you had just left!"

"Heh, right after you left, our medicine pavilion was robbed. I’d say anyone might suspect you."

Long Qie chuckled, "Do you only have this reason? Haha, that’s pretty thin, maybe someone else is framing us!"

When Xiao Zheng acted, he left no evidence, so he wasn’t worried about the other party making accusations.

And doing so made Long Qie feel no shame at all; Medicine King Valley had been too excessive before, and letting them suffer in silence was deeply satisfying.

Xiao Zheng at this moment also spoke calmly, "Elder Zhuge, you are an elder of Medicine King Valley, so I respect you. But if you speak nonsense, even though you’re from Medicine King Valley, I, the Evil God, will not fear you."

Zhuge Youxuan remained firm, "We may not have evidence, but we do have witnesses. Wang Zhong, you speak!"

Wang Zhong’s eyes immediately lit up, knowing it was his time to shine. He stared intently at Xiao Zheng and declared, "I can testify! It was the Evil God who robbed the medicine pavilion."

Xiao Zheng asked, "How can you testify?"

Wang Zhong shouted, "Before the medicine pavilion was robbed, you and Long Qie came to our Medicine King Valley asking for medicine, wanting the Thousand-year-old Snow Lotus to treat someone! Our Medicine King Valley refused, and Long Qie lingered for many days, begging bitterly, ultimately even trying to forcefully obtain it."

"Hmph, everyone saw this!"

"After you left that day, the medicine pavilion was robbed. If it wasn’t you, then who was it?"

When Xiao Zheng heard this, he laughed aloud, "What you said is partly true."

Wang Zhong sneered, "This is the truth. There’s no way for you to deny it."

Xiao Zheng pointed at Titan, "I sent Long Qie to your Medicine King Valley for medicine to treat my brother called Titan, who was seriously injured during the raid on the Demon Shield Bureau. But coincidentally, before Long Qie succeeded in getting the medicine, I happened to heal Titan due to a coincidental opportunity. So, we didn’t need the Thousand-year-old Snow Lotus at all."

"Hmm?"

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Youxuan’s expression changed slightly. If this is true, then the most compelling reason doesn’t exist.

Zhuge Youxuan’s mind raced. Was Xiao Zheng lying? But he quickly dismissed this thought. Such things were easy to verify, and lies would be easily discovered.

Wang Zhong, at this time, coldly said, "Hmph, even if you had no reason to steal the medicine, there’s still a ninety percent chance it was you who stole from the medicine pavilion!"

"But even if you don’t admit to this, you and that Long Qie cut off my arms in our Medicine King Valley and even smashed my father’s tongue! How do you explain that!"

At this point, Wang Zhong’s face was filled with hatred.

He was already mad like a dog, with only one thought in his mind: to take down Xiao Zheng.

Zhuge Youming, hearing Wang Zhong’s words, was overjoyed. This reason was sufficient!

Immediately, he coldly said, "Evil God, what Wang Zhong says is the truth. This you cannot deny, can you?"

Long Qie laughed loudly, "So what if we hit you? You’re merely a disciple of Medicine King Valley; even if you were an elder, we’d still hit you!"

At this point, Long Qie’s tone suddenly turned icy as he pronounced, "A Martial Saint cannot be dishonored!"

At these words, the faces of everyone Zhuge Youxuan brought changed.

A Martial Saint cannot be dishonored.

This is an ironclad rule in the Martial Arts World!

In the Martial Arts World, the strong are revered, and Martial Saints are the pinnacle of martial artists, each enjoying various privileges.

One such privilege is that no one can offend the dignity of a Martial Saint. If someone does and is punished by a Martial Saint, no one can question it.

Long Qie coldly said, "We, the Sky Net, are under the command of the Evil God! I was acting under the Evil God’s orders to seek the Thousand-year-old Snow Lotus in your Medicine King Valley. Yet during this process, not only did you not agree, but you also insulted me repeatedly! You dishonored not just me, but the dignity of the Evil God."

"Mr. Xiao only cut off your two arms and a tongue, which is already quite courteous."

Wang Zhong, trembling with anger, shouted, "You’re lying!"

Long Qie chuckled coldly, then, without speaking further, walked up and slapped Wang Zhong on the head.

Wang Zhong felt his head buzz, his vision went black, and he fainted.

Zhuge Youxuan was shocked and sternly questioned, "What are you doing? Do you think our Medicine King Valley will stand idly by?"

Wang Chongyang saw his son knocked to the ground, and his eyes turned blood red, roaring incoherently as he lunged at Long Qie.

Long Qie, now a Middle Stage Grandmaster, had an absolute advantage over Wang Chongyang. Seeing Wang Chongyang charge, he sneered.

Bam!

His fist, wrapped in shining Gang Qi, struck out and landed directly on Wang Chongyang’s nose, instantly caving it in.

Then Wang Chongyang flew out backwards!
