Chapter 158 Physical Evidence
The others suddenly realized that they had been so bound by the name "Ghost King Blade" that they had never imagined that Ghost King Blade could actually use other weapons.
"Ah Fei, go."
Seeing that the time was right, Wu You quickly called for Di Feisheng.
Hearing the palm strike coming from behind, Li Lianhua quickly took a step to the side.
Xin Jue wasn't so lucky to dodge; he was forced to take Di Feisheng's palm strike and staggered back several steps until his foot hit the corner of the wall.
Xin Jue tried to draw his sword to resist, but was pressed down by Di Feisheng.
Xin Jue struck out with his palm, and Di Feisheng retreated several steps to avoid it.
Taking advantage of the opening, Xin Jue seized the opportunity to draw his pine needle sword and slash at Di Feisheng.
Di Feisheng dodged to the side, and Xin Jue's sword energy struck the house behind him.
It was obvious that the sword mark Xin Jue left on the house was a zigzag cut. Now, everything was clear.
Now that he had revealed his true colors, Di Feisheng stopped teasing him and used a single move to immobilize Xin Jue, rendering him unable to move.
"Everyone, look!"
Li Lianhua made everyone see clearly.
"The Well-Shaped Cut, you are the Demon King's Blade."
"That's why I said Ghost King Blade can also use a sword. Let's go check out Guard Xin's room."
Although Xin Jue was very unwilling, he was at the mercy of others and had no room to resist. He could only watch helplessly as everyone headed towards his room.
And he was also taken along.
After everyone entered Xin Jue's room, the room's layout was nothing special, but the most striking thing was a cloth covering the table in the middle of the room.
Murong Yao, who was walking at the front, stepped forward and lifted the cloth, revealing what was inside.
The table was covered with gold and silver jewelry, but the most eye-catching item was a large knife stained with blood.
This was indeed the best evidence of murder and robbery, immediately drawing everyone's attention to one place.
"So it turns out that Guard Xin was the one crying 'stop thief' all along!"
"I didn't kill him."
Xin Jue kept protesting his innocence.
"The treasure is here, and so is the captain's sword. The blood on the sword hasn't even been wiped off yet. Confess."
"This is a frame-up."
Xin refused to argue.
"Ghost King Blade".
Li Lianhua suddenly shouted at Xin Jue.
Xin Jue, who had been arguing loudly just moments before, suddenly fell silent and did not respond.
"The skill in cutting the tic-tac-toe pattern on the wall is profound, no doubt about it."
"I am Ghost King Blade, that's true. I also wanted to kill Yu Louchun with my own hands, but it really wasn't me who killed her."
Since it had already been discovered, there was no need to hide it any longer, so Xin Jue told the truth.
"Seven years ago, my wife was taken to a women's residence. When I came to find her, I learned that she had committed suicide. Yu Louchun was skilled in martial arts. I was unfortunately captured. In order to protect myself, I agreed to take the poison and become his bodyguard."
"How could someone like me, who can't even protect his wife and is a coward who would become a dog for his enemies, have the courage to kill? How could I have the courage to kill Yu Louchun? I failed to kill him last time, and I can't beat him now."
After Xin Jue finished speaking, he even gave a self-deprecating laugh.
"That's a very touching story, but you changed your clothes because you killed Dongfang Hao, didn't you?"
“When I saw the inscription on the tree in the morning, I was worried that someone was framing me. When I returned to my room, I saw the gold and silver and the sword on the table. There was some hibiscus cake on the sword. Only then did I realize that I had fallen into a trap.”
"I rushed back to shower and change, but before I could hide these things properly, I was called out of the house. I..."
"Xin Jue, get out here."
Xin Jue was about to say something when he was interrupted by several guards who walked in from outside the door.
"what is this?"
The lead guard held up several small bottles in his hand and presented them to Xin Jue.
