Chaotic Asura - Chapter 77 ????
Elder Go “Jiang Chen is here?”
When Jiang Chen reached to the Elder’s hall inside the Miracle Peak he already saw Bai Mo, Ning Mo, and Ning Bo. He even saw Ha Ling sitting next to Elder Go Fen. On the other side, two elders were sitting. They are from Ning Family, Jiang Chen could see that their cultivation is not greater than Peak Martial Soldier.
Jiang Chen “Greeting Elder Go. I am summoned here.”
Go Chen “Jiang Chen, these elders are from the Ning family of River Qi city.”
Jiang Chen politely greeted them formally.
Go Chen “Elder Ning here wants to ask you a few questions. He wants some information regarding your hunting trip on Moon Island.”
Jiang Chen “Sure, what does elder Ning want to know.” Jiang Chen sounded very polite. Jiang Chen turned to look at Bai Mo, Jiang Chen could see his heart beating very fast.
Ha Ling was relaxed as usual. He knew very well that they covered everything.
Elder Ning ” Jiang Chen, you should have known already about what happened in the Moon Island forest?”
Jiang Chen “Yes, I heard it from brother Bai Mo and Ha Ling. Someone killed disciples of the Ning family.”
Elder Ning “Yes, Jiang Chen when we checked the bodies of them, we found traces of the Lighting attribute, ice attribute, and Light attribute.”
Jiang Chen gave a surprised expression ” LIGHT attribute? You mean the LIGHT attribute.”
Jiang Chen “I heard its very rare attribute not found in our country.”
Elder Go “Its true, Light attribute is very rare, it is one of the strongest attributes found in this continent.”
Jiang Chen “OH! Elder Ning did you find the killer?” Jiang Chen asked curiously.
Elder Ning “No, we just want to ask you a few questions.”
Elder Ning “Jiang Chen, we found few traces of the Lightning Tribulation Technique.”
Elder Ning “Even Ha Ling and Bai Mo said told us that your tribulation technique was used.”
Jiang Chen “I didn’t have to use my tribulation technique then, I relied on my fire technique in Moon forest.”
Elder Ning “There were few killed using a lighting spear technique?”
Jiang Chen ” Are you trying to say that Xue WuXia was involved in this?”
Everyone was puzzled where did WuXia come in between. It was clear they are suspecting Jiang Chen for the incident.
Elder Ning “We were told, you use a spear technique of lightning attribute.”
Jiang Chen “Are you suspecting me?” he asked in a serious tone, his expression was very serious.
Elder Ning “We just want to ask a few questions.”
Jiang Chen “You know you are making a serious accusation here?”
Elder Ning “That is not our intention. We just want to confirm a few things?”
Jiang Chen “Elder Ning, I have been polite till now, I respected and responded correctly. Now you make an accusation that I am involved in the murders of your family members.”
Elder Ning “Young master Jiang we just want to ask a few things. Please cooperate.”
Elder Go “Jiang Chen, they are not accusing you of anything, just answer them. They can’t act upon you without any evidence.”
Jiang Chen just nodded at this.
Elder Ning “Jiang Chen, did you see any suspicious activities when you were in the forest?”
Jiang Chen thought for a while trying to remember everything.
Jiang Chen ” Yes, there were some people, I found suspicious. When I was fighting NIGHT trying to suppress it, they were trying to surround me from distance. I thought they were poachers, luckily I was able to tame NIGHT in time and make an escape.”
Jiang Chen “I was too tired after that fight, I didn’t know where Night took me.”
Elder Ning was cautious hearing this, he could guess they were Ning family members who surrounded Jiang Chen.
Elder Go “Jiang Chen you were surrounded by a group. What can you say about that group?”
Jiang Chen “Elder Go, I didn’t look at them carefully, I was fighting NIGHT when I noticed them. They spread out surrounding me, I was so terrified then, that I immediately suppressed NIGHT using my strongest attack and hoped to make escape using its speed.”
Elder Ning “Your strongest attack? Isn’t your strongest attack 3 lightning tribulation.”
Jiang Chen “No, I mean it is, but I only used my fire attribute fist technique in that fight, I wanted to overpower NIGHt only using fists. If I have used my tribulation technique, I would have seriously injured it or killed it. So, I used my fist only.”
Elder Go was sure that people who surrounded Jiang Chen were Ning family members from their reaction, he didn’t doubt Jiang Chen’s words that he escaped from there. He knows about the speed of Jiang Chen’s horse, he saw it when Jiang Chen trained it the first day. Also, its intelligence is top notch among beasts here. It should be undoubtedly number one.
Elder Go “Jiang Chen try to remember something, these people should be the culprits who killed Ning family members.”
Ha Ling “Brother Jiang you didn’t tell me about this?” he was serious hearing this.
Jiang Chen “I thought it was normal in these places, poachers and bandits hunt weaker groups and take their spoils.”
Elder Go “Jiang Chen you are lucky you escaped from them, I guess they should be involved in the murders of Ning family members.”
Elder Ning didn’t know what to say for this, he was locked in the spot, he can’t speak about these people being his family members, now that Elder Go spoke, all blame fell on that mysterious group of people, there were no other suspicious incidents that happened that day.
Jiang Chen gave a terrified expression at that.
Ha Ling was chuckling at this ‘the blame of Ning family members death falls on Ning family itself.’
Elder Ning “We can’t say for sure, there might be others involved.”
Elder Go Fen “I have heard about such groups, they should be involved in deaths of Ning family members.”
Elder Go Chen “Yes, their numbers can rival Ning family members and their attributes are also more powerful. They might have gotten into a clash with Ning family members.”
Elder Ning “But, it doesn’t explain the numbering of deaths.”
Elder Go “They might have done this to distract people from investigating.”
Elder Go “True, now most of the news is more about how they were killed in order and numbered is spread, many of the clues might have lost in this investigation.”
Elder Go “I will let grand elder know about this, we have to warn others about this immediately.”
Elder Ning “But no one else has seen them other than Jiang Chen?”
Elder Go “You mean to say, that no one escaped from them alive other than Jiang Chen.”
Even Jiang Chen was surprised at this. Elder Go sure would have guessed that people are from the Ning family.
Elder Go sent a subconscious message to Jiang Chen “Jiang Chen, are they really a threat, your supporters?” Elder Go know a bit of Jiang Family, he guessed that someone from Jiang family would have been sent to protect Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen “I don’t think so. Not for the sect at least.”
Elder Go “Then let me play with them.”
