In order to save himself, the prince summoned 100,000 dragon riders at the start.

"But the news of the destruction of Shuofang City has gradually spread."

"Judging from the reactions of all parties, most believe that it was our Dragon Cavalry that carried out the massacre of Shuofang City!"

"After all, we just fought our way over from there..."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan nodded, his expression somewhat gloomy.

This matter is neither a big deal nor a small one.

But it's clear that he didn't commit the massacre of the city.

However, he was unfairly blamed for something he didn't like!

"Envoy Baili, what, do you think I was responsible for the massacre of Shuofang City?"

"And your branch in Shuofang City, do you also think I killed him?"

Lu Yuan, looking rather displeased, questioned Baili Shouwei.

"No, no, no..."

Guard Baili hurriedly waved his hands repeatedly, saying:

"Your Highness, I know you would never do such a thing!"

"Besides, our Shuofang City branch also reported the situation at the time, and it was definitely not your doing!"

Baili Shouwei hesitated for a moment, then continued:

"Let me tell you the truth."

"According to the last message sent back from our Shuofang City branch."

"Before they died, they discovered that a thick black fog had appeared over Shuofang City!"

"Afterwards, our people went to investigate and also discovered a trace of residual demonic energy!"

"Therefore, we suspect it was done by a demonic cultivator!"

"Demon cultivator?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan frowned deeply.

He hadn't heard the term "demonic cultivator" for many years!

At this time.

Bai Li, the guard, stared nervously at Lu Yuan and said:

"Your Highness, everyone outside now believes that you massacred the entire city of Shuofang!"

"Our Baichao Chamber of Commerce is also filled with righteous indignation at this!"

"Therefore, we have decided to join forces with you to investigate the whereabouts of that demonic cultivator."

"We'll catch that demonic cultivator and clear your name!"

Bai Li Shouwei stated his purpose directly!

this time.

The loss of the Baichao Chamber of Commerce is not just a matter of losing an entire branch.

More importantly, their face was also severely slapped!

If he doesn't kill the demonic cultivator who destroyed his branch to establish his authority...

If this gets out, wouldn't everyone be able to take a jab at the Hundred Dynasties Chamber of Commerce?

prior to.

Don't underestimate Lu Yuan; he looted the entire branch.

But at least they left an IOU...

No matter what, at least it provides some semblance of decency!

And what does that demonic cultivator do?

They wiped out his branch!

Isn't this a slap in the face?

however.

After listening to Baili Shouwei's words, Lu Yuan sensed something was amiss.

Now that the Hundred Dynasties Merchants Association knows that Shuofang City was not destroyed by them.

It was done by a demonic cultivator!

And there is evidence on hand.

Instead of releasing the results, you're making me search for evidence?

Peat!

Isn't this just using oneself as a weapon?

......

Lu Yuan tilted his head, a strange, cold smile on his face:

Why should one need to prove their innocence?

"Envoy Baili, what's wrong? Doesn't your Hundred Dynasties Merchant Guild know how to investigate this yourselves?"

"Besides, doesn't your Hundred Dynasties Chamber of Commerce have evidence of my innocence?"

"Why don't you just post it?"

"this...."

Baili Shouwei was taken aback, opened his mouth, then hesitated and stopped.

That's right.

What Lu Yuan said seemed to make a lot of sense!

But there is one thing.

From the perspective of the Hundred Dynasties Chamber of Commerce, this matter can be viewed in detail.

On what basis does the Hundred Dynasties Chamber of Commerce present the evidence it possesses to prove Lu Yuan's innocence?

do not forget.

That branch in Shuofang City was raided by you, Lu Yuan, before!

It's good enough that they didn't cause you any trouble!

The Baichao Chamber of Commerce isn't some cheapskate, eager to fawn over you.

"Your Highness, that's not how it is!"

"Our Baichao Chamber of Commerce can promise that as long as you help us find the murderer..."

"Our Hundred Dynasties Chamber of Commerce will definitely stand up and explain the reasons to everyone!"

"Don't you want to clear your name?"

However, Lu Yuan shrugged indifferently.

"Do whatever you want, it wasn't me who slaughtered this city!"

"I don't care what others think of me. If they can't stand it, then they can come and cause me trouble!"
