Chapter 708: Chapter 708: Who Dares to Be an Enemy of the Nie Family_1

"Young Master Mo, forgive my audacity for asking, but was the death of Nie Kuangtu your doing?"

Xue Qingniu squinted his eyes and began to question Mo Han in front of everyone.

Mo Han was first taken aback before noticing Xue Qingniu’s flickering gaze, and he immediately understood that the other party definitely knew some inside information.

With this thought, Mo Han stood tall and said, "On that day, I indeed went to Chuyun Manor at Old Tang’s invitation, and I did have a verbal conflict with Nie Kuangtu. We even exchanged blows!"

"However!"

His tone shifted as he looked intently at Cheng Debiao and continued, "The death of Nie Kuangtu was not my doing!"

"The one who killed Nie Kuangtu was him, Cheng Debiao!"

"At that time, the witnesses to this incident, apart from President Han Feng, included Old Tang, Old Wen, and others."

"Cheng Debiao, you wouldn’t deny it, would you?"

Indeed!

Cheng Debiao shivered as he listened, having already guessed that Mo Han would turn the battle towards him, but he had not expected Mo Han to challenge him at this time.

Just as he was about to explain, Mo Han’s voice came again, "After Cheng Debiao killed Nie Kuangtu, he asked me, Old Tang, Old Wen, and others to keep it a secret on the pretext of removing a menace to the people."

"You all know, five years ago, Nie Kuangtu once wreaked havoc in Jiangling City, turning the city into a place of chaos and gloom."

"Old Tang and others like Old Wen had had several conflicts with Nie Kuangtu, so after some deliberation, they agreed to Cheng Debiao’s request!"

"Old Tang and others like Old Wen have been deeply rooted in Jiangling City for a long time; naturally, Cheng Debiao dared not take action against them. It was I who was isolated and lacked backing, so he decided to pin this dirty charge on me."

"Family Head Nie, aren’t you being foolish? Why would you trust such a turncoat!"

"You even said I took some treasure, why don’t you ask him about it?"

Nie Zhenyuan was quite clear about the details of Cheng Debiao shooting Nie Kuangtu, after all, the hypnotist who hypnotized Cheng Debiao was someone he found through connections.

But these things, he simply couldn’t reveal, which was truly frustrating.

He glared at Mo Han fiercely, knowing all too well that it was Mo Han’s maneuvers that prompted Cheng Debiao to act against Nie Kuangtu. Otherwise, given Nie Kuangtu’s skills, a hundred Cheng Debiaos couldn’t have killed Nie Kuangtu.

And that Yingzhou Divine Blade from Li Yao Village was indeed taken by Mo Han!

"Little Nie, did you hear that? Young Master Mo said he didn’t kill the person and he didn’t take the items. Everyone disperse!"

Xue Qingniu smiled faintly, gestured with a wave of his hand, signaling them to disperse.

Nie Zhenyuan’s face was flushed with embarrassment, but he could only stiffly say, "Old Xue, it’s not that I don’t respect you, I just have conclusive evidence that the item was taken by Mo Han!"

"That item is of vital importance to the Nie Family, I ask that you please not interfere!"

As if he had anticipated the other’s response, Xue Qingniu said indifferently, "Alright, if you have evidence, then bring it forth!"

If I could have produced it, would I not have done so already?

Nie Zhenyuan suppressed his frustration and his tone cooled, "Old Xue, could I ask for a favor today, for you to not meddle in this matter?"

"Little Nie, you’re being quite amusing with your words."

Xue Qingniu gently stroked his beard and said softly, "Face is never something given by others, it’s earned by oneself!"

"Since you cannot produce any evidence, please leave."

"Alright, Xue Qingniu, you’re determined to oppose the Nie Family, aren’t you!"

Standing to the side, Nie Huihuang, seeing Xue Qingniu unresponsive to persuasion, said fiercely, "I know you’re tough and have powerful connections in Dragon City, but our Nie Family is not an easy target either!"

"Today, no one will be able to help. Mo Han is someone our Nie Family has set its sights on!"

Xue Qingniu looked towards Nie Zhenyuan and said indifferently, "Is this the stance of your Nie Family?"

Damn it!

Nie Zhenyuan harrumphed internally, irritated, and gave his son a glare. Huihuang really should have kept those thoughts to himself, why speak them out loud?

However, at this moment, he obviously couldn’t dismantle his son’s platform, so he had to reluctantly nod and say, "Indeed! What Huihuang means, is what I mean!"

"I have no intention of making an enemy of Xue Lao, but today, whoever stands on Mo Han’s side is an enemy of our Nie Family!"

With that said, he looked around, his voice filled with threat, "I would like to see who dares to oppose the Nie Family!"

A man’s reputation is like a tree’s shadow.

The Nie Family of Dragon City is no minor clan. If they wish, they can completely utilize various connections to suppress these families in Jiangling City, even the Tang Family, the leader of the Four Great Families, would struggle to resist.

Normally fearless, Tang Chuchu was now furrowing her brows, her eyes filled with solemnity.

Wen Biyu, although somewhat better off, couldn’t hide the worry in her eyes.

Her earlier declaration to investigate Nie Huihuang was more a scare tactic than anything, but she hadn’t expected Nie Zhenyuan, Nie Huihuang’s father, to actually appear.

It’s no wonder Wen Biyu was surprised; in fact, Nie Zhenyuan had not initially planned to come, but just a few days ago, the Liusheng family from Yingzhou Island once again inquired about the status of Li Yao Village’s blade.

Li Yao Village’s blade, as one of the Three Divine Artifacts, could increase a normal expert’s combat power by two to five times when used.

If a top-level expert used it, although it wouldn’t reach two to five times, a doubling in prowess was still attainable.

However, this blade possesses an extremely heavy malevolent aura, which could easily affect one’s mind. The Liusheng family didn’t have the appropriate conditions to store it, but the Nie Family had a Sword Pond that could suppress evil spirits, so Liusheng fuzhuai of the Liusheng family entrusted the blade to the Nie Family for temporary safekeeping.

That temporary safekeeping turned into seven years, which Nie Zhenyuan didn’t take too seriously.

And it was for this reason that Nie Kuangtu found his opportunity, stealing the blade in secret and replacing it with a counterfeit.

Interestingly enough, a highly skilled swordsman recently appeared in Yingzhou Island country, challenging experts everywhere, even defeating four of the top ninjas from the Iga school, which ranks alongside the Liusheng family.

Liusheng fuzhuai, worried about being targeted, urgently contacted Nie Zhenyuan to have the Li Yao Village blade sent back to Yingzhou Island.

The moment Nie Zhenyuan received the message, he immediately went to the Sword Pond, only to discover that Li Yao Village’s blade had been stolen, and after careful investigation, found out it was the doing of Nie Kuangtu.

By then, Nie Kuangtu had already died, and his son Nie Feiyang, along with his four sworn sons Nie Long, Nie Hu, and others, had disappeared without a trace.

The whereabouts of Li Yao Village’s blade remained unknown.

It just so happened that during the hypnosis of Cheng Debiao, the latter mentioned the process of Nie Kuangtu’s murder and happened to reveal that Mo Han had obtained Li Yao Village’s blade.

Nie Zhenyuan had no plans to intervene personally, merely instructing his son to handle the situation and to take Mo Han away and then press for the location of Li Yao Village’s blade.

But unexpectedly, the forces backing Mo Han today were numerous, forcing him to step in.

Liusheng fuzhuai is widely recognized as an Earth Ranked Expert in the Innate Realm, and a master of this caliber could annihilate the Nie Family effortlessly.

Moreover, with the Liusheng family having business dealings with the Nie Family, bringing in at least several hundred billion in business to the Nie Family annually,

The Liusheng family is one entity that cannot afford to be offended!

Therefore, Nie Zhenyuan made the decision, even if it meant falling out with Xue Qingniu, the leading authority in the field of traditional medicine. Today, he had to take Mo Han with him to find Li Yao Village’s blade!
