Chapter 101: Accusations
Jiang Hao might not be speaking the total truth, but it was the truth nonetheless. He thought he had done a good job of keeping everything as believable as possible, but Yin Ni poured water on his efforts.
"You know what? You are terrible at lying or narrating anything."
Jiang Hao was stunned. He didn’t know what mistake he had made. He looked toward the others, and as expected, their expressions weren’t those of people who would believe him.
Zhi Hui sighed. She didn’t care what he was trying to hide, but if the news he brought was true, then it would be very helpful for them. She said,
"If what you said is true, then that means both these sects must resort to the only option left to them—to use as many cultivators as possible to restrict us within the Forbidden Zone, or to seek help from the territory lords of the Forbidden Zone, which is almost impossible given their nature.
So, they will definitely send a large number of cultivators, and once that happens, it will become known to every major power in this world.
I wonder what type of accusations they will levy upon us to justify their actions. Maintaining the façade of righteousness is very important for these two sects—after all, they are the so-called beacons of hope for humanity in this world.
They can’t allow their image to be tarnished. Although not every major power will believe their words, it doesn’t matter as long as the general public does."
"What about those border cities in the Central Region? How will they justify that?"
Ming Yue asked.
"Well, for starters, they will put all the blame on the spirit beasts for attacking them. Also, the crimes they will accuse us of will be severe enough to justify such sacrifices.
