Chapter 361: Chapter 259: Truth Potion
...
Another question they frequently asked was about Hui Yue. Did they know he was a cultivator with the title of Saint? Was he using some sort of divine technique to maintain his youth instead of aging? Was he originally from here?
The royal officials brought truth potions. Although these were mild magic potions, they still prevented lies. However, when the officials heard them swear they never revealed his secrets, they immediately stopped questioning.
The official never noticed that only Wang Julong mentioned the Blood Oath, while Deng Wu remained silent, carefully watching him with an attentive gaze.
"He was born in a poor village on the outskirts of the Magic Forest," Lord Liang Rongge said straightforwardly when asked. He would never refuse information from the Royal Family, answering all questions to the best of his ability.
"I saw him for the first time when I was five years old. Although I thought he was a bit strange, I never imagined he would become a Holy Name Expert."
"No, it is absolutely not a fraud. Young Hui Yue was using Wu Wei! While you can fake an aura, it is impossible to counterfeit Wu Wei. Only those who can enter the Upper Dantian are capable of mastering Wu Wei."
"I regret that I couldn’t document what happened. He was fighting against young Deng Wu, continually approaching us until he suddenly burst his aura forward. Afterward, he went to protect young Deng Wu, and together they charged ahead."
"No, I do not know where he might be. He is no longer in Liluo City. I sent people with truth potions to question his hometown, but they only said they hadn’t seen him for the entire year."
"To ensure the village’s safety, I gave him an erased past. Although they couldn’t contribute much to taxes for many years, they have helped me over the years. I felt this was a good way to repay their kindness."
Rong Liang owned nothing. The royal officials recorded everything, then they also went to Huixue Village, only to find that he had long been absent from there.
The trial lasted five consecutive days. In the end, all the elders and family leaders who had lost their standings were sentenced to death.
Deng Wu and Wang Julong survived, but both were exiled from Liluo City due to their negligence. Although they had played significant roles in the battle within Liluo City, it was evident they were aware of what had transpired before the actual fight. Knowing this information could have prompted them to notify the City Lord.
Wang Jingshen eventually became the new leader of the Wang Family, while the Deng Family passed leadership to the child of an elder. Deng Wu and Wang Julong were allowed to stay in the city briefly, as they wished to witness the execution of their families.
The execution of all the elders and family leaders would have been a devastating blow to any family, especially those ranked among the top one hundred. Yet, they managed to survive thanks to their centuries of legacy and reputation.
These families held immense wealth. Although both families had to pay heavy fines for their actions, it was negligible compared to the fortune the Deng Family had accumulated over the years.
The Wang Family’s situation was slightly worse due to prior financial struggles. However, as a family with a storied history, they still owned considerable land, which helped them settle their fines. After settling their debts, Wang Jingshen successfully kept his family in the Liluo City noble circle, though not as prominent as before.
Wang Jingshen grew up in the shadow of his sister, but now it was his time to shine. He had long demonstrated his ability to become a competent family leader.
The uprising in Liluo City shook the entire Sun Kingdom. Rumors of a new Holy Name Expert, perhaps even a child, began to spread. However, as quickly as the rumors started, they also faded just as swiftly.
Only Rong Liang, Bu Huang, and the Ma family leader were present when Hui Yue allowed Lan Feng to take care of his body. With no recordings to prove its existence, many began to believe it was merely a rumor spread by Liluo City for boasting purposes.
The universally known fact, though, was that the Deng Clan and Wang Family suffered tremendous losses. This fact alone was enough to spark widespread gossip across the kingdom in the coming months.
....
After the execution, Deng Wu stood at the gates of his family’s old home, sitting atop his mystical beast. He wore a belt adorned with multiple storage stones, and rings with embedded storage stones could be seen on his hands. A handsome young man sighed, turned around, and left the house of his childhood, never expecting to see it again.
Across the city, an eerily similar scene played out as Wang Julong bid her brother farewell and swung her leg over the magic horse she was riding. Her face was calm, with not a hint of nostalgia or sadness.
For Wang Julong, this was the beginning of a new life where she could truly come into her own. To her, exile was no worse than her daily life had ever been.
Deng Wu and Wang Julong were not the only ones leaving the city. The Rong twins were preparing to head for the Capital, yet both of them took the road to the Magic Forest. Gao Yan also decided to join them on their journey to the Capital.
A lone rider could be seen traveling town after town, as Ma Kong requested to rest for a few days before leaving Liluo City. Like the others, he too was heading for the Magic Forest.
"It’s truly a wonderful feeling to see you all gathered here today," Hui Yue said with a smile as he looked at his friends, who had ridden all the way to find him.
Hui Yue sat in the Magic Forest, beside a beautiful stream flowing through a field of blossoms. This place was where Sha Yun once lived, and several days ago, it was also the home of Hui Le. Meanwhile, the trials in Liluo City had been ongoing.
