Chapter 812: Chapter 786: Victors are Kings, Losers are Outlaws, Nothing to Say
Liang Youshan swept a glance across the crowd and said, "Quiet down, quiet down, everyone. What are you panicking about? Nobody’s going to die."
With that shout, everyone finally quieted down in fear.
Tangyu looked at the crowd and said, "There’s no problem giving you guys the Detoxification Elixir, but I’m not running a charity. Those of you who didn’t take a stand earlier, I’ll give you all the Detoxification Elixir for free. Those of you who did take a stand, it’ll cost twenty Tempering Spirit Pills per elixir, no exceptions. If you don’t have the Tempering Spirit Pills to buy one, you’ll have to figure it out yourselves. Humph, and you still dare to call yourselves a virtuous sect? Still dare to claim to be true Martial Artists? You should be ashamed."
"I’m ashamed for you. At the slightest threat, you degrade yourselves and grovel? Willingly consorting with Demon Monsters, willingly falling into the demonic path, willingly surrendering to wicked ways. I didn’t kill you, consider it my mercy."
Liang Youshan was also filled with righteous indignation and said, "That’s right, damn it, you all have no backbone. Are you still human? Look at you, all looking so respectable, but you can’t hide your ugly nature. Pay up, pay up, those without Tempering Spirit Pills should shut up and get lost. Otherwise, I really won’t be able to help but beat you up."
Many people turned beet red and felt deeply ashamed.
Of course, some people were unwilling to accept it, but at this moment, they could only keep their heads down.
"We know we were wrong, we are indeed ashamed, we shouldn’t have done that."
"We were too afraid of death, we will give the Tempering Spirit Pills."
"Twenty Tempering Spirit Pills, I don’t have even one, what should I do?"
Tangyu gave Liang Youshan a look and tossed him a bottle of Detoxification Elixirs. Liang Youshan immediately took Wang Wei and Wu Fei with him to distribute them. Those who didn’t take a stand earlier naturally received the Detoxification Elixir first, and for free.
"Thank you, thank you."
"Friend Tangyu, you truly are our savior, I will remember this for the rest of my life."
After distributing to those who didn’t take a stand, Liang Youshan raised his voice, "Alright, now it’s your turn, don’t rush or push, line up, anyone who cuts in line won’t get one. Prepare your Tempering Spirit Pills, and if you don’t have any, get lost."
With Liang Youshan and the others handling this, Tangyu no longer had to worry. Tangyu’s gaze turned to Liu Xian, who, though appearing calm and composed, was actually extremely tumultuous inside. Tangyu looked at Liu Xian, and Liu Xian also looked at Tangyu, their gazes clashing intensely in the air.
After everyone received their elixirs, Liang Youshan returned with significant gains; these people deserved it for bringing this upon themselves.
Tangyu walked towards Liu Xian, and everyone’s gaze followed. Liu Xian hadn’t purchased a Detoxification Elixir.
Tangyu came up to Liu Xian, his face cold and indifferent, "Do you have anything to say?"
Liu Xian looked at Tangyu and said, "There’s nothing to say. It’s my fear of death, my greed for profit, my ambition that was too inflated. I don’t need the Detoxification Elixir. Let’s end this matter here today. It seems the Myriad Immortals Conference is not happening, everyone can leave, I won’t see you off."
"After such a big incident, there’s no point in holding the Myriad Immortals Conference, let’s go."
"It seems we should cancel the Myriad Immortals Conference for good."
"That’s not entirely fair, maybe Liu Xian had no choice. Now that it’s over, there’s no point in debating right and wrong."
Tangyu curled his lip and gave a cold smile, "Liu Xian, don’t you think you owe us an explanation? Or perhaps — you should account for yourself to us."
Tangyu’s words puzzled the crowd, and they looked at him in confusion.
Liu Xian raised an eyebrow, still maintaining a calm look as he gazed at Tangyu, "What do you mean? Sorry, I don’t quite understand. If you’re referring to this incident, it’s indeed my Liu Family’s poor coordination that let Wing Shao exploit the opportunity. I deeply apologize for the harm everyone suffered. Our Liu Family will properly handle the aftermath for the two deceased, and give their factions an account. But the situation was beyond my control. All I can say is, I’m sorry."
"Sorry?" Tangyu laughed coldly, "Don’t you think your apology is too insincere? Why, at this point, do you still want to put on a show? Keep pretending?"
Liu Xian’s face turned cold and somewhat grim as he looked at Tangyu, a hint of anger in his voice, "Tangyu, what do you mean by this?"
"What do I mean?" Tangyu looked at Liu Xian, "Alright, since you want to act, I’ll expose your guise. This whole thing was a setup by you and Wing Shao from the start. Don’t you think you owe us all an explanation? Don’t you think you owe an explanation to the two righteous individuals Wing Shao killed?"
"What?"
"No way, was this all a plot by Liu Xian and Wing Shao?"
"If it’s true, then Liu Xian deserves to die."
Liu Xian’s face was exceedingly grim. With a cold snort, he said, "To unjustly accuse someone without evidence! Tangyu, now that you’ve won, you naturally can say whatever you want. I don’t even know that Yi Shao, let alone collude with him. If you insist on framing me, I have nothing to say. But be clear with your words. Just because I was the first to make a statement, does that make me guilty of collusion? Isn’t your reasoning too far-fetched?"
The crowd also started to discuss among themselves.
"I don’t think Liu Xian would do such a thing, right? He’s always been very upright. Of course, this time his statement was unexpected, but thinking about it, it’s understandable."
"Indeed, who isn’t afraid of death? Facing the threat of death, making some wrong choices isn’t such a big deal."
"Well, you never know. Some people are two-faced and cunning. Who’s to say Liu Xian isn’t deeply scheming? I also sense something suspicious."
"Let’s see what Tangyu has to say. I don’t think Tangyu would accuse Liu Xian without reason, right?" free𝑤ebnovel.com
"Exactly, I still trust Tangyu more."
Liu Xian had completely lost the people’s support by now, and few were speaking on his behalf.
Tangyu said, "Liu Xian, don’t overestimate yourself, and don’t try to embellish your reputation. I, Tangyu, have no time to falsely accuse you, nor do I care to do so. Moreover, we just met today; we have no past grievances. I have no reason to frame you."
"Liu Xian, we’re all smart people here. I don’t want you to use foolish methods to discuss this with me. Let’s lay everything out in the open; perhaps that can leave you a shred of dignity. Of course, if you insist on throwing away even this last bit of dignity, that’s fine too. I will uncover you bit by bit. Do you think I would say this without certainty?"
Liu Xian’s face turned even colder, looking extremely unpleasant.
Tangyu continued, "This morning, I spoke with you and mentioned Yi Shao. I’m here on orders from Myriad Saints Valley to resolve this issue, so the information I have is beyond your imagination. I suspected you this morning but didn’t point it out. You repeatedly promised to be vigilant; now let me ask you, how could your Liu Family’s renowned wine be so easily poisoned? And this happened after you vowed to be careful. Don’t tell me you were unaware?"
"Indeed, the poison was in the wine, and the wine was brewed by the Liu Family. If there wasn’t an insider, how could this be possible?"
"Damn Liu Xian, truly deserving of death, conspiring with a traitor to harm us. Unforgivable."
Liu Xian snorted in anger, "As I said before, you can say whatever you want now. You’ve seen Yi Shao’s skills. He could poison without me noticing. Why is that surprising?"
Tangyu said, "Fine, let’s not talk about that. Can you explain why you were the first to make a statement and even urged others to do the same? What was your motive?"
"I already said, I didn’t want to die. I have my ambitions but made a wrong choice. Does that mean all the blame falls on me for one mistake? If that’s the case, I have nothing to say. Now that you’re stronger, you can say whatever you want." Liu Xian retorted, playing the victim.
Using a weak stance as the best excuse to gain sympathy.
"Heh." Tangyu sneered, "Liu Xian, you really think I don’t have concrete evidence, so you keep denying. Don’t worry, the evidence is coming. Let me ask, we were all poisoned; why were you unaffected? As I recall, you drank a lot of wine, didn’t you?"
Liu Xian’s eyes flashed coldly, "You think I wasn’t poisoned?"
Everyone’s eyes turned to Liu Xian, puzzled.
Yes, wasn’t Liu Xian poisoned as well?
Tangyu pouted, "Do you think I don’t know if you were poisoned? I can cure this poison, so I’m very familiar with it. These Detoxification Elixirs were personally made by me. Do you think you can hide it from me?"
Liu Xian, angry and ashamed, said, "I said I was poisoned, so I was poisoned. Everyone saw it. Tangyu, don’t you think you’re being ridiculous? Do you think everyone here is a fool?"
Tangyu pointed angrily at Liu Xian, "It’s you who takes everyone for fools, thinking you can deceive others and me as well?" Tangyu flicked his hand, revealing two Detoxification Elixirs. "Liu Xian, if you’re sure you were poisoned, then take these Detoxification Elixirs to cure yourself. But let me tell you, my Detoxification Elixir works by fighting poison with poison. The toxicity of this elixir is no less than that of the Poisoned Wine."
"If you were poisoned, it would cure you. If not, this Detoxification Elixir is poison for you. Once you take it, everything will be clear. If you’re so sure, go ahead."
Liang Youshan clicked his tongue in admiration, secretly giving Tangyu a thumbs-up. Clever, to say such manipulative things, but it might just work.
Liang Youshan knew well that this Detoxification Elixir was not poison but rather a potent tonic. Clearly, Tangyu was bluffing to scare Liu Xian.
To deal with scoundrels, using scoundrel tactics is the way to go. Brilliant, truly brilliant.
