Chapter 100: Clever Words Unravel the Poisonous Scheme!

"How dare you! You actually dared to kill someone at will, and even smashed them into mincemeat. Is there no law anymore?" A middle-aged man in a long robe walked in.

Immediately afterwards, a large group of people rushed in and surrounded Chu Feng and the others.

“A life for a life! Please, Lord City Lord, do justice for me! My husband died so tragically!” As soon as the village woman saw the middle-aged man, she rushed over, grabbed his legs, and cried loudly.

"How could you kill someone? Can't we talk this out? Are you running a restaurant or a shady business? How can you be so domineering?"

"That's right, Lord City Lord! They must be punished! Otherwise, Jade Moon City will never have peace!"

"Yes! These people must be arrested to restore peace to Jade Moon City!"

The servant was so frightened that he turned pale and dared not utter a word. Why would the city lord personally come for such a trivial matter?

"Shut up, all of you! This man dares to extort money from my Sword Sect's restaurant, he deserves to die! Anyone who dares to make another sound, I'll slap him to death!" Xiao Hui shouted, hands on her hips.

Chu Feng chuckled to himself. Was Xiao Hui addicted to killing? And you even mentioned the Sword Sect's name, weren't you just tarnishing the Sword Sect's reputation?

Sure enough, as soon as they heard that Xiao Hui was from the Sword Sect, the outside area erupted in chaos.

"So what if you're from the Sword Sect? Does that mean Sword Sect disciples can treat human life like dirt? Does that mean the Sword Sect can run a black market?" A man at the third level of the Void God stage, carrying a long sword, walked in.

"The Sword Sect is too arrogant! They don't listen to reason at all!" Another Yuan Dan stage cultivator walked in.

"That's right. No matter how powerful your Sword Sect is, you can't just kill people for no reason. Otherwise, what's the difference between you and a demon? If everyone followed your Sword Sect's example, wouldn't the world be in chaos?"

Within a few breaths, a dozen or so cultivators at the Yuan Dan and Xu Shen stages walked in through the door.

These people chattered and talked nonsense, directly labeling the restaurant as a black market establishment. They also portrayed the Sword Sect as utterly wicked, to the point that the Sword Sect was almost becoming a demonic sect.

Chu Feng winked at Wen Mengting, signaling her to stop Xiao Hui from attacking again. This group was clearly planning this, framing her. Even if the Sword Sect was powerful, could they really massacre an entire city?

Those who cultivate themselves are inherently defying the will of Heaven, and their lives are filled with tribulations.

Slaughtering mortals will bring even greater calamity.

Therefore, apart from demonic cultivators, very few cultivators kill mortals.

However, Chu Feng was certain that these people would send out mortals to kill Xiao Hui later. The village woman lying on the ground howling was clearly a mortal.

Once Xiao Hui gets into a killing frenzy, she won't care about mortal cultivators anymore.

As long as Xiao Hui kills a mortal, these people will spread rumors, defining the Sword Sect as a demonic sect that disregards human life and slaughters mortals.

I'll ruin your reputation, turn you into a demon, and make you someone everyone wants to kill!

No matter how powerful the Sword Sect is, does it have to go against the entire Northern Region?

One step leads to another; the plan is insidious and ruthless!

"You poisoned someone, and then sent the poisoned person into the restaurant. What is your intention?" Chu Feng stepped forward and asked loudly.

Chu Feng completely ignored the accusations. "You say the Sword Sect killed people, but I'll say you poisoned them."

The middle-aged man in the long robe glanced at Chu Feng and said, "Who are you? Don't talk nonsense."

Chu Feng took out a nameplate and smiled, "I am a guest weapon refiner of the Weapon Pavilion. Who are you? Are you trying to frame and persecute me as well?"

You keep saying that the Sword Sect treats human life like dirt, so I'll keep saying that you're framing and persecuting them. We're all equally guilty.

Upon hearing Chu Feng's words, a look of seriousness flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes.

He took the nameplate, glanced at it, and then handed it back to Chu Feng: "I am Feng Dawei, the city lord of Yuyue City. Don't talk nonsense. No one is persecuting you, and no one is poisoning you. As for sending people into the restaurant, that's impossible."

Even if you are a weapon refiner from the Weapon Pavilion, you cannot speak nonsense. It was clearly the Sword Sect that killed someone; how can you call it false accusation and persecution?

When Wen Mengting and the others saw that Chu Feng had stepped forward, they naturally kept quiet, since Chu Feng was, after all, the son-in-law of the Sword Sect.

Furthermore, sword cultivators are straightforward and honest, so it might be better to let Chu Feng handle it, to prevent Xiao Hui from getting angry and wanting to kill someone again.

Chu Feng sneered, "This person has already been poisoned, and the poison has already taken effect. My Sword Sect's little maid was unaware of this and was used by someone."

Besides, this person came to the Sword Sect Restaurant to cause trouble. If someone causes trouble at your City Lord's Mansion, are you just going to let it go unchecked?

Feng Dawei was speechless. Chu Feng's words were incisive; anyone who dared to cause trouble at the City Lord's Mansion would be killed without mercy.

He can't very well say that if someone comes to the city lord's mansion to cause trouble, the city lord will make him a cup of tea and will never kill him. Who would believe such nonsense?

Before anyone could speak, Chu Feng coldly pointed to the mangled flesh on the ground and said, "Look, many parts of this person's body have turned black. This is clearly a result of being poisoned."

"You're a weapon refiner, how could you recognize what a deadly poison is? You're not talking nonsense, are you?" a cultivator carrying a large iron hammer asked.

Chu Feng coldly replied, "I am not only a weapon refiner, but also a physician. May I ask, sir, is there a problem with my recognition of this deadly poison?"

Not only were Wen Mengting and the others stunned, but even the people who came in were stunned.

Physicians are among the rarest and most respected professions in the spiritual world.

Because only physicians know how to cultivate spiritual herbs, spiritual rice, and spiritual fruits. The food that cultivators eat must contain the spiritual energy of heaven and earth; eating too much ordinary mundane food is harmful rather than beneficial.

At the same time, doctors take saving lives and healing the wounded as their duty, walking between mortals and cultivators. They are simply a symbol of morality and a synonym for benevolence and righteousness. Who would doubt the words of a doctor?

Chu Feng's few words stunned everyone present, making Wen Mengting's eyes sparkle. Only Xiao Hui pouted, "You're just bragging without thinking. You're clearly lying to people!"

"Since you are a physician, then I, the city lord, ask you, you say he was poisoned, what proof do you have?" Feng Dawei saw that something was wrong; Chu Feng's identity as a physician had silenced everyone, so he quickly jumped out to challenge him.

Chu Feng said, "The poison this person was afflicted with was made primarily with Gelsemium elegans. Gelsemium elegans is an extremely yang substance, and it will ignite immediately upon contact with an open flame. Why don't you let someone try it?"

As an alchemist, what difficulty is there in identifying medicinal herbs and analyzing the ingredients of pills? Chu Feng could identify the poison's components as soon as he smelled the scent in the air.

“I’ll give it a try!” A cultivator dressed in alchemist’s robes stepped forward.

The man casually took out a flint, lit it, and threw it into the pile of minced meat.

"Boom!" The minced meat immediately burst into flames.

Chu Feng sneered, "Lord City Lord, someone poisoned this person and then arranged for him to cause trouble at the restaurant. Such a person deserves to die. What do you think?"

"In my opinion, the poison this person has been given was administered by someone in the restaurant. What do you think?" A voice came from the crowd!
