Chapter 2297: Chapter 2297: Even if There’s a Mistake, It’s Not His Fault

I don’t know what’s going on, it used to be really simple, and there’s the Heavenly Fire, it hasn’t fallen today either, I wonder if it’s related to this.

Could it be that the Evil Thoughts and Heavenly Fire come as a package?

He was a bit confused.

But despite his confusion, the speed at which he was fleeing did not slow, and he shot out in an instant.

However, no matter how fast he ran, he couldn’t be faster than the whip in Qian Jiyun’s hand. His afterimage-like figure paused, and the whip directly grabbed his neck, pulling him back.

With a ’bang’, he fell onto the flowers and plants in the courtyard.

"Ah!"

The Xun Family Head let out a miserable scream; his fat body, even falling on the flowers and plants, could have killed him with pain, let alone the whip coiled around his neck.

"Trying to run?"

An Jiuyue’s smile didn’t reach her eyes as she looked at the wailing Xun Family Head.

Surprisingly, for someone so fat, he could run at an impressive speed, as fast as a rabbit, right?

"Xun Family Head, where are you planning to run to?"

"I... ah!"

The Xun Family Head had no time to say anything before letting out another miserable scream.

Because his demonic energy was directly crippled by Qian Jiyun, without giving him any chance to resist, it was gone just like that.

His cultivation level he was so proud of, which he had gained by doing so much for the Divine Envoy to exchange for a level stronger than ordinary people, was gone just like that. How could he be willing to accept it?

But what could he do if he was unwilling? The person who crippled him was right in front of him, and even if he wanted to fight, he couldn’t win.

Ignoring the pain on his body, he turned over and kneeled down towards An Jiuyue.

"High Priest, have mercy, High Priest, have mercy."

"Have mercy?"

An Jiuyue looked at the person kneeling in front of her, begging for her mercy, and sneered.

"For the people you harmed, did you ever think about sparing their lives?"

Even without seeing it with her own eyes, she could imagine how those full of Evil Thoughts came about, it was this scoundrel who spread it!

He was living well himself, and even the entire Xun Family was fine, completely harmonious.

Now, he was the one asking for mercy, he thought himself innocent, but weren’t the people outside who died innocent too? Didn’t they wish to beg the Xun Family Head for mercy?

But they were all dead, dead from the cruelty of the person in front of her.

"No, it wasn’t me."

The Xun Family Head instinctively denied it when he heard her words.

What did it have to do with him? Those people couldn’t control their desires and were too greedy, resulting in Evil Thoughts in their hearts; it was their own fault, it had nothing to do with him.

Moreover, those people weren’t good people in the first place, and by doing what he did, he actually rid Wulong Mountain of harm.

"High Priest, it was... it was the Divine Envoy, the Divine Envoy forced me, he deceived me, he said if I could do things for him, he’d make my Xun Family the top family of Wulong Mountain. I was also deceived by the Divine Envoy."

That’s right, even if there was a fault, it wasn’t his, it was the Divine Envoy. It was his voice that tempted him, leading him to do those things.

If a man does not for himself, heaven will destroy him; he did it for himself, to become stronger, what was wrong with that?

"Where is the Brown Jade?"

An Jiuyue didn’t have the patience for arguing who was right or wrong, and directly asked.
