Chapter 943 Please bring out solid evidence

The Tianyan Sect was not willing to be outdone and they all took out their weapons, shining with cold light.

The two sects' disciples were on the verge of a fight, the spiritual energy in the air was surging, startling the birds roosting in the forest.

Ji Qingxu flicked his wide sleeves to protect the disciples behind him, and his face suddenly became as gloomy as water.

A fire of anger burned deep in his eyes.

Ji Qingxu snorted coldly: "Chief Ximen, you are so arrogant! You keep asking me to hand over the person. Who on earth did I kidnap from your Ximen family?"

"I want to ask you, who did I kidnap from your Ximen family? You'd better give me a clear explanation!"

He glared at him, his aura suddenly rising, and he looked at Ximen Lie with a questioning expression.

Seeing this, Su Chenyin couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

She could naturally see that the reason why Ximen Lie was so angry and anxious was definitely because he had discovered that Ji Lier was missing from the dark room.

That's why he suspected them first, and hurriedly chased after them, demanding that they hand over Ji Lier.

Ximen Lie stared at Ji Qingxu and shouted, "Sect Master Ji, stop playing dumb with me! My clan leader's daughter is missing, and I believe you know where she is now!"

Ji Qingxu's heart suddenly tightened, but there was no sign of it on his face, and he remained calm and composed.

He pretended to be innocent and said, "Chief Ximen, you are really confused! You said your daughter is missing, what does this have to do with my Tianyan Sect?"

"Not to mention that this sect master has no idea where your daughter Ximen Yinshuang is. Even if she is really not in your Ximen family, you can't just blame the sect master out of thin air, right?"

He spread his hands and looked helpless, as if he really knew nothing about the matter.

At this moment, the disciples of Tianyan Sect also began to whisper.

"This Ximen family is too unreasonable!"

"That's right. How could our leader capture their people? Isn't this a clear frame-up?"

"That's right! They are accusing our leader without any basis. They are just looking for trouble!"

"They are clearly looking for trouble on purpose and framing us. Where is the trace of Ximen Yinshuang here?!"

Elder Lin saw this and quickly stepped forward and said, "Patriarch Ximen, there must be some misunderstandings in this matter. Our Tianyan Sect has always been known for being upright and honest, and we would never do such a sneaky thing. Please calm down and think carefully about whether there are other possibilities."

Elder Tang immediately echoed, "Yes, Patriarch Ximen, please calm down first and figure out the whole story first."

"We are a well-known and upright sect, how could we possibly do such a thing? It is really inappropriate for you to accuse us without any basis in fact."

"Patriarch Ximen, you should investigate this matter thoroughly first and don't wrongly accuse us." Ji Qingxu spoke again.

Ximen Lie was so angry that he was shaking all over, and he shouted loudly: "Humph, Master Ji, don't play dumb with me here!"

"You should know clearly who the daughter I am talking about is. She is my eldest daughter, Ximen Li, also known as Ji Lier of your sect!"

"I, the clan leader, advise you, Sect Leader Ji, to hand her over obediently. Don't damage the harmony between us. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

After he finished speaking, Ximen Lie suddenly drew out his sword and pointed it at Ji Qingxu and others.

The sword flashed with cold light, which was particularly dazzling in the night sky.

Ji Qingxu sneered and said slowly: "Chief Ximen, speaking of Ji Lier, she was forcibly abducted from Tianyan Sect by your Ximen family a few months ago. Since then, this sect master has never seen her again."

"Even at your second daughter Ximen Yinshuang's birthday banquet today, I didn't see her at the banquet. Speaking of which, I am really worried about her current situation."

He paused, then continued, "Now that Ji Li'er is missing, Patriarch Ximen, you actually falsely accuse me of taking her away. Patriarch Ximen, don't you think this is ridiculous?"

"This sect master has never left the banquet from beginning to end. Even any of our Tianyan Sect's disciples and elders have never left the table."

"Then, I would like to ask, how did we manage to capture your daughter in public?"

Ji Qingxu's voice was neither hurried nor slow, but every word was as sharp as a knife, and every sentence made sense, making it impossible to refute.

The sarcasm revealed in his words was like a sharp sword, piercing Ximen Lie's heart, making Ximen Lie's face even uglier, as if he had been slapped hard in the face.

Elder Lin echoed righteously, "That's right, Patriarch Ximen, you can't just talk nonsense!"

"We, the Tianyan Sect, have always been known for being open and aboveboard, upright and honest. How could we do such a thing as secretly kidnapping your daughter? It is really wrong for you to accuse us without any reason!"

His voice was sonorous and powerful, with an unquestionable majesty, which made Ximen Lie's heart tighten, and he became even more wary of Tianyan Sect.

Elder Tang then spoke up: "Patriarch Ximen, if you really have doubts about our Tianyan Sect, please show us solid evidence."

"You want us to hand over someone just because of empty words and no evidence. This is simply unreasonable! We in the Tianyan Sect are not soft persimmons that can be bullied by others. We will never suffer such a loss!"

"Everyone in our Tianyan Sect was leaving the banquet just now, so we didn't have the chance to kidnap Miss Ji Lier."

Elder Tang's words revealed a tough attitude, with a hint of anger in his tone.

He kept shaking his head, with a very confused expression on his face, as if he was baffled by Ximen Lie's accusation.

At this time, the disciples of Tianyan Sect began to whisper to each other again.

"Yes, we have been at the banquet the whole time. How can we have the time to kidnap his daughter?"

"This must be a misunderstanding. Patriarch Ximen must have made a mistake, right?"

"That's right, how could our Tianyan Sect do such a thing?"

"This matter must be thoroughly investigated. Our leader cannot be wrongly accused for no reason."

"That's right, you are making groundless accusations! Our Tianyan Sect has always been upright and honest, how could we do such a thing?"

"Chief Ximen, if you don't have any evidence, don't spit bloody words here!"

The disciples were talking one after another, and they were obviously dissatisfied with and questioning Ximen Lie's accusations.

There were expressions of indignation on their faces.

Ximen Lie looked at everyone from Tianyan Sect, his anger growing stronger, but he could not find any conclusive evidence to prove that it was Tianyan Sect that kidnapped Ji Lier.

He gritted his teeth and glared at Ji Qingxu: "Sect Master Ji, stop quibbling here!"

"I don't care what method you used to capture Ximen Li. Anyway, if my daughter can't be found, I will never let you off with the Tianyan Sect. You must give me an explanation today."

"Ridiculous!" Elder Lin shouted angrily, "Our sect leader was at a banquet all night, how could he kidnap people? Patriarch Ximen is slandering us like this, is he trying to stir up a dispute between the two factions?"

Elder Tang also sneered and said, "If you ask me, maybe it was your daughter Ximen Li, Patriarch Ximen, who escaped on her own. I heard that she lived in the Ximen family...tsk tsk."

The unfinished words caused the faces of everyone in the Ximen family to change suddenly.
