"Chen Guangcai, if you have any conscience, you should tell the truth. My wife and I swear here that even if it costs us our lives, we will protect you and will never let you be harmed by anyone." Wang Lingyue's eyes were firm and his words were sincere.

Chen Guangcai was like a frightened bird, but after hearing these words, his panicked eyes calmed down a little and he raised his head slightly to look at Li Suyue.

This unintentional glance made Li Suyue's heart tighten suddenly, her heart beat like a drum, and her throat seemed to be choked by something. She subconsciously tightened her fingers, and her knuckles turned white due to the force.

At this moment, she knew that it was useless to say more, and the slightest mistake in her words would lead to her being doomed. She could only stare at Chen Guangcai with her eyes, which were full of warnings and threats, as if saying: If you dare to utter a word, you will die miserably.

But Chen Guangcai's words were still like a sharp blade, stabbing straight at Li Suyue.

"I really was just following orders. I know nothing else!" Chen Guangcai suddenly raised his voice and shouted at the top of his lungs, "It was Li Suyue who ordered me to go to the pharmacy to buy medicine. But what exactly did she want to do with that medicine? How could I, a runner, know?"

"Then what kind of medicine did she buy?" Yuan Qiulu widened her eyes, her eyeballs seemed to fall out of their sockets, raging anger burned in the depths of her eyes, and her teeth were chattering, as if she wanted to bite all her teeth off.

At this moment, Chen Guangcai said tremblingly: "It is...it is the Death Powder." As soon as the words came out, the originally quiet crowd instantly boiled over like a pot of boiling water.

"Jueming Powder? This name sounds so scary. How can such an extremely toxic poison exist in the world? And I've never heard of an antidote!" An old man with white hair and wrinkles on his face shook his head and sighed continuously, his face full of astonishment.

"How can this woman be so vicious? Her heart is even more cruel than that insidious and cunning poisonous snake! Such vicious behavior is really outrageous!" A burly young man waved his clenched fists in anger and shouted passionately, his indignation evident in his words.

"This kind of unscrupulous person is simply intolerable to heaven! He should be thrown into the dark eighteen levels of hell and never be reborn!" The crowd angrily accused, and the sounds of spitting rose and fell like a tide, without stopping.

Yet, facing the overwhelming accusations and abuse, Li Suyue acted like a mad lioness. Her hair was disheveled, her eyes were red, and she roared at the top of her lungs, "I didn't do it! You all ganged up on me. I'm innocent. I've done nothing wrong!"

At this moment, her face was as pale as paper, without any blood, but even so, she still refused to surrender and continued to resist stubbornly.

On the other side, Chen Guangcai straightened up and said loudly, "I'm absolutely not lying. It was Li Suyue who ordered me to buy the poison. I have solid evidence to prove that what I said is absolutely true!"

Chen Guangcai quickly pulled out a few banknotes and a piece of paper from his pocket, respectfully presenting them to Yuan Qiulu with both hands. He then said, "These are the banknotes Li Suyue gave me that day, and this note asking me to buy poison. I've always been cautious and kept a secret. Look, the signature on this note is Li Suyue's own handwriting."

When Li Suyue heard this, her head buzzed and her head was spinning. She never imagined that the note that asked Chen Guangcai to buy poison that day would become a fatal handle today.

"Li Suyue, you venomous woman with a heart as vicious as a snake and scorpion, now the evidence is irrefutable, you can't deny it! You poisoned my daughter, I will tear you into pieces to relieve my hatred!"

Yuan Qiulu came prepared today and was not just talking. After she finished speaking, she raised the whip in her hand, which drew a sharp arc in the air and lashed towards Li Suyue with a whistling sound.

"Such a vicious person is rare in the world. How could he be so cruel!" Someone in the crowd opened his eyes wide and shouted loudly.

"Yes, she should be severely punished and let her know the consequences of doing evil!" Everyone responded, and the voices became louder and louder.

Li Suyue stared at the whistling whip, her eyes wide open in horror. Her feet seemed to be nailed down and she couldn't move. She could only instinctively keep backing away, but there was a wall behind her and she had nowhere to retreat.

"Ah—Aze, save me!"

Li Suyue turned pale. She never expected Yuan Qiulu to be so decisive and start fighting right away. In a panic, she instinctively ran towards Wanze, trying to hide behind him for shelter.

"stop--"

Wan Ze's eyes flashed. How could he stand idly by when his beloved woman was in danger? He moved as fast as lightning and strode forward. He stretched out his big hand and accurately grabbed the long whip. He stood like a towering mountain, blocking Li Suyue steadily.

"Zer! Stop it now!"

The clan leader's wife exclaimed and stood up from her seat, her face full of anxiety and astonishment.

Wan Aotian's expression also changed. How could he watch his son fall into such a dangerous situation? Without thinking, he stepped forward to stop the dispute.

However, Wang Lingyue would not let him succeed so easily. He flashed and blocked Wan Aotian's way like a ghost. A sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his voice was icy and piercing: "Brother Wan, are you going to abandon our years of brotherhood for a prostitute?"

These words were like a sharp blade, piercing Wan Aotian's heart. Wan Aotian paused. Although he was worried about his son, he also knew that the matter involved a lot of things. He was not doing this just for Li Suyue, but Wan Ze was his only child!

At this moment, Yuan Qiulu's moves were deadly, and the long whip in her hand was like a nimble poisonous snake, heading straight for Wanze.

Wan Ze had to protect Li Suyue behind him and resist this fierce attack, and he was in danger for a while.

Seeing his son in critical situation, Wan Aotian was extremely anxious and did not bother to argue with Wang Lingyue. He suddenly slapped Wang Lingyue with a palm. The palm wind was whistling, carrying his heart full of anxiety and anger.

Wang Lingyue stopped talking upon seeing this, and the two men immediately started fighting with fierce moves. The air around them seemed to be buzzing with the stirring of their internal energy.

Li Suyue hid behind Wan Ze, her heart in her throat. She shouted with all her might, "Aze, be careful!" Her voice was filled with fear and worry.

Wan Ze was concentrating on dealing with Yuan Qiulu's attack when he suddenly heard Li Suyue's scream from behind. He subconsciously turned his head to look, but this sight made his pupils suddenly shrink.

Wang Shuangshuang was seen holding a dagger and approaching Li Suyue silently like a ghost. The dagger flashed with cold light, and her target was Li Suyue's chest.

"Su Yue——"

Wan Ze roared, and in his panic, he completely ignored the whip that was about to fall on his back. He tapped the ground with his toes and flew up like an arrow.

He made a beautiful turn in the air and kicked the dagger in Wang Shuangshuang's hand. With a "clang" sound, the dagger flew out of his hand.

Then, he used this momentum to kick Wang Shuangshuang hard in the chest. This kick contained all his strength and anger. Wang Shuangshuang flew straight out like a kite with a broken string.
