Tianxuan's gaze fell, watching Zong Zheng, the coldness in his eyes making even this Ji Family Clan Elder shiver.

Tianxuan suddenly looked sideways, and Cui Xiangzhong and the other three exploded into a mist of blood.
"You wish to murder and silence!" Zong Zheng shouted.
Although unclear about the situation, Zong Zheng still discerned a critical point with the wisdom—or perhaps cunning—brought by his years.

Zong Zheng continued, "If I had plotted the death of Jiang Li, I would have met Heaven's Punishment by now. I am currently unharmed, which clearly shows that this matter is unrelated to me."
After the initial shock, Zong Zheng calmed down, making his innocence clear with logic and facts. Even in his heart, he harbored doubts, suspecting that Jiang Li was not dead, and that this was all just an act.
