Chapter 753: A Thunderbolt From the Blue Sky
Xiaoye's answer immediately changed everyone's expressions.
Baili Ningsu looked at her expressionlessly, and continued to ask: "You were ordered to serve Ji Tianxing in Hefengyuan, but you didn't stay in Hefengyuan, then where did you go?"
Xiaoye lowered her head in fear, and said in a weeping voice: "The slave girl went to the kitchen to serve the spirit porridge for Mr. Ji as ordered by the eldest lady.
In the past two days, every day after nightfall, the servants had to go to the kitchen and leave for half an hour.
When the servants brought the porridge back to Hefengyuan, Mr. Ji was no longer in the room. "
Hearing her answer, Ji Tianxing's complexion suddenly changed, and he secretly screamed in his heart that something was wrong.
But he also knew that what Xiaoye said was the truth!
Baili Ningsu glanced at Ji Tianxing, then continued to ask Xiaoye: "Then do you know when Ji Tianxing left Hefengyuan?"
"Mistress, servants don't know either!" Xiaoye didn't dare to hide anything, so she could only answer truthfully.
Baili Ningsu took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said expressionlessly: "You step back."
"Yes!" Xiaoye responded, bowed quickly, and exited the room.
After Xiaoye left, Baili Ningsu looked at Ji Tianxing, and said in a cold voice: "Ji Tianxing, Xiaoye can't prove your innocence, what else do you have to say?"
Ji Tianxing's face was a bit ugly, so he could only say sincerely: "Auntie, I know you don't want to believe me, but it is indeed a coincidence.
This incident happened suddenly, please give me some time, I will be able to find out the truth and prove my innocence! "
But Baili Ningsu shook his head, and said expressionlessly: "There is no need to say any more! I can tell the truth of the matter."
After finishing speaking, she looked at the two elders beside her, and ordered in a deep voice: "Two elders, detain Ji Tianxing and put him in the ice prison, under strict guard!
After I report the matter to the Patriarch, I will convict him! "
"Auntie!" Ji Tianxing immediately showed anxious eyes, and wanted to explain again.
However, Baili Lingsu had already closed his eyes, obviously unwilling to listen to what he had to say.
The two elders of the Yun family no longer hesitated, walked to Ji Tianxing with cold faces, stretched out big hands as hard as steel, and grabbed his arms.
The two twisted his arms, pushed him left and right, and walked out of Baili Ningsu's room.
These two elders of the Yun family are strong men, possessing the strength of the seventh or eighth level of the Tianyuan realm.
If Ji Tianxing struggled with all his strength, he would have great confidence in breaking free from the shackles and escaping the capture of the two elders.
But if he really does that, there will be another conflict, and the conflict with Yunling Palace will intensify, which will only make it more difficult to explain clearly.
Therefore, he could only keep calm and let the two elders escort him.
After a while, the two elders escorted him away from Qianyun Palace and headed for the ice prison deep underground.
Qianyue was not arrested, but she was worried about Ji Tianxing's safety, and followed Ji Tianxing all the way, refusing to leave no matter what.
A while later, Ji Tianxing was about to be taken into the underground ice prison, seeing that Qianyue was still following closely, he said to it with a serious face: "Qianyue! You can't follow me to the ice prison!
You go back now, go to Yaoyao immediately, and explain this matter clearly to her.
Mrs. Yun refuses to believe me, only Yaoyao will believe me, maybe she can help me find out the truth.
This is my only chance to get rid of the suspicion and prove my innocence! "
Knowing the urgency of the situation, Qianyue quickly stopped, nodded, and said solemnly: "Lao Ji, don't worry, I'll go find Yunyao now!
Don't worry, we will find a way to rescue you and prove your innocence! "
After finishing speaking, Qianyue turned around and left quickly.
Escorted by two elders, Ji Tianxing walked through the dimly lit passage to the depths of the ground.
Not long after, he was thrown into the ice prison.
The ice prison is a prison opened up by the Yun family in the mountain peak, protected by a powerful formation force, and guarded by many elite guards.
In the entire prison, solid ice condensed everywhere, the temperature was extremely low, and the air was also frozen by the cold.
If a martial artist in the Yuandan realm is imprisoned here, and is constantly eroded by the extremely cold air, he will definitely experience pain that is worse than death.
Although a strong person in the Tianyuan Realm can resist the extreme ice cold air, it is still unbearable, and both mentally and physically will be tortured.
After all, the dark, cold, and dead silence in the ice prison makes people feel sad and lonely from the bottom of their hearts.
Ji Tianxing was imprisoned in a cell with a radius of five meters. The entire cell was made of ice bricks and sealed off by an invisible array.
There was nothing in the cell, surrounded by ice-white walls, without a trace of other colors.
As the door of the cell was closed and the two Yun family elders left, the cell immediately fell into silence.
Ji Tianxing stood alone in the cell, thinking about everything that happened before, trying to analyze some clues.
For the time being, he still couldn't figure out who was going to frame him, why did the other party do this, and what was their purpose?
...
Inside Qianyun Palace, the lights were brightly lit, and the atmosphere was very depressing.
Baili Ningsu and everyone left the room and entered the main hall.
The guards and maids were all guarding outside the hall, and there were only a few people in the hall.
Baili Ningsu was sitting on a jade lotus platform, her face was pale and her eyes were closed, she was practicing kung fu to heal her injuries.
Her father, Doctor Baili, has arrived after hearing the news, and is currently performing the mystic art, doing his best to help her get rid of the poison and treat her injuries.
Even the head of the family, Yun Zhongqi, was startled, standing beside Baili Ningsu, looking at her with concern, his face full of worry.
He had already learned what had happened just now, and his mood was very complicated and heavy at the moment.
At this moment, a slender figure in a long white dress stepped across the gate as fast as a gust of wind and entered the hall.
It was Yun Yao who came. She had just heard the news that her mother had been assassinated, so she rushed over as fast as she could.
"Shua!"
Yun Yao rushed into the main hall, and seeing Baili Ningsu's blood-stained and miserable appearance, she immediately showed a worried expression.
Seeing that Grandpa was healing her mother, she didn't dare to disturb her, so she looked at her father Yun Zhongqi and asked in a low voice, "Father! How is my mother's injury? Does it matter?"
"Alas..." Yun Zhongqi sighed, and said in a low tone: "Your mother's injury was very serious, she was almost pierced through the heart and died on the spot.
Moreover, the assassin's dagger was quenched with poison, which had penetrated into her heart veins. "
Speaking of this, Yun Zhongqi saw Yun Yao's complexion changed drastically, and he was extremely worried, so he quickly comforted him: "Yao Yao, don't worry, with your grandfather here, your mother will be fine."
Only then did Yun Yao feel relieved, and asked in a gloomy tone: "Father, have you caught the murderer? Who is so vicious and rampant that he dared to assassinate my mother in Yunling Palace?"
Yun Zhongqi glanced at her, and said with a strange expression: "The murderer is... Ji Tianxing!"
To Yunyao, this sentence was like a bolt from the blue, which made her stunned!
