Chapter 279 - 278: Refusing to Admit Death

"Bring Gao Fei over for a confrontation!" Jia Yunfeng said loudly. "Whether it was him or not, a single question will reveal the truth!"

"Yes, bring Gao Fei over!" Lin Meixiu said.

Song Qingfeng's face was grim as he spoke in an icy tone, "You want to see Gao Fei? Fine! I'll call him over right now!" With that, Song Qingfeng lifted his head and instructed the disciple standing at the doorway, "Go, call Gao Fei here."

The disciple took the order and left.

...

Within a short while, Gao Fei arrived.

"Sect Leader, what do you need me for?" Gao Fei asked.

"Jin Dalong has been injured by someone, and some suspect it was your doing!" Song Qingfeng said gravely. "Tell the truth, does this matter have anything to do with you?"

"Of course, it has nothing to do with me." Gao Fei immediately became anxious upon hearing this. "I have no grudge against Jin Dalong, why would I attack him? Moreover, these past few days I've been at Repentance Cliff reflecting, and I simply had no opportunity to attack Jin Dalong!"

"There's no one guarding Repentance Cliff; you could've slipped down the mountain at any time!" Jia Yunfeng snorted.

"When did your eyes see me slip down the mountain?" Gao Fei glared. "The Sect Leader punished me to reflect at Repentance Cliff, and I have stayed there honestly, never once considering sneaking down! Jia Yunfeng, you can't frame me like this!"

"Who can prove that you stayed at Repentance Cliff the whole time?"

"Who can prove that I sneaked down the mountain?"

"Gao Fei, if you're a man, just admit it outright!"

"I didn't do it; why should I admit to it?"

"You are the prime suspect!" Jia Yunfeng pointed at Gao Fei's nose and said, "Jin Dalong had punished you before, and you've harbored a grudge, always wanting to retaliate against him! Plus, you are infatuated with my daughter, and, seeing Jin Dalong about to marry her, you grew jealous and malevolently framed Jin Dalong!"

God damn it!

You guessed right on the mark!

Absolutely the worm in my stomach!

Gao Fei cursed inwardly, then opened his mouth and said, "There are plenty of people Jin Dalong has offended; what makes you so sure it was me?"

"If not you, then who else could it be?"

"You keep insisting it was me; then bring forth the evidence! Without evidence, stop spouting nonsense!"

"You..."

"What 'you'? You just can't stand the sight of me and resort to framing me by all means, you're truly despicable! Utterly shameless!"

"You dare to curse me!"

"You deserve it! People like you, dark-hearted and low in character, deserve to walk out the door and drop dead, living is but a waste of sunshine, air, and food!"

"I'm so angry I could die, truly so angry I could die!" Jia Yunfeng's face twisted in rage.

Every time he argued with Gao Fei, the loser was always Jia Yunfeng; Gao Fei's tongue was simply too formidable, even more powerful than a machine gun.

"Gao Fei! Was it you who ambushed my son?" Lin Meixiu questioned loudly.

"No!"

"How can you prove your innocence?"

"How can you prove I did it?"

"I..."

"What 'I'? Without evidence, don't talk nonsense! Falsely accusing someone is the most shameful behavior!"

...

Within a few words, Lin Meixiu was so furious her complexion turned green.

To stand against two and still gain the upper hand, he was truly formidable.

"Enough, all of you, shut your mouths." Song Qingfeng couldn't stand it anymore, "If you want to quarrel, go outside, don't bother me here!"

"Sect Leader, you must stand up for me," Gao Fei said with a look of grievance. "They framed me, set me up, and conspired against me... utterly shameless! Hateful! Despicable!"

"Sect Leader, this was done by Gao Fei! It couldn't be anyone else!" Jia Yunfeng shouted loudly.

"Arrest Gao Fei! Question him at length!" Lin Meixiu said.

Song Qingfeng's eyes were blazing as he stared at Gao Fei, "Are you sure it wasn't you?"

"It wasn't me!" Gao Fei puffed out his chest, his face full of anger, "Really, it wasn't me!"

Song Qingfeng turned his head to look at Jia Yunfeng and Lin Meixiu, "Gao Fei said something very true, everything must be based on evidence! Without evidence, you cannot suspect Gao Fei."

"Sect Leader..." Jia Yunfeng and Lin Meixiu just wanted to speak when Song Qingfeng interrupted them.

"Don't speak anymore." Song Qingfeng waved his hand, "Go find the evidence. As long as you can produce irrefutable evidence to prove it was done by Gao Fei, I will certainly punish him severely." He paused, then added, "The two of you can leave now."

"Sect Leader, we..." Jia Yunfeng and Lin Meixiu wanted to say something more, but Song Qingfeng was no longer giving them the opportunity.

Song Qingfeng commanded sternly, "Out!"

Seeing Song Qingfeng lose his temper, Jia Yunfeng and Lin Meixiu immediately shut their mouths and obediently retreated.

In the blink of an eye, only Song Qingfeng and Gao Fei were left in the hall.

"Well, if there's nothing else, I'll be going back too," Gao Fei said as he turned to leave.

"Stop right there!"

"Eh... Sect Leader, do you have more orders?"

Song Qingfeng just quietly looked at Gao Fei, just like that, without speaking a word.

Gao Fei forced a smile and asked, "Sect Leader, why are you looking at me like that, eh? If there's something to say, say it! Don't look at me that way; it's making me uneasy!"

"It's just the two of us here," Song Qingfeng finally spoke, "Tell me the truth, did you do it or not?"

"I..."

"Think carefully before you answer me!"

"It wasn't me! Really, it wasn't! Sect Leader, you must believe me!"

"Alright, go back," Song Qingfeng waved his hand, "Stay at Repentance Cliff and don't come down without my order."

"Oh, I'm off then," Gao Fei nodded, and strode away.

As he watched Gao Fei's retreating figure, Song Qingfeng slowly frowned, his lips moving slightly as he muttered to himself, "Was it really Gao Fei?"

...

Outside the Council Hall.

Jia Yunfeng and Lin Meixiu were whispering to each other.

"I'm certain, it was Gao Fei!" Jia Yunfeng said in a low voice.

"...Without evidence, we can't touch Gao Fei," Lin Meixiu said, "It won't be easy to get past the Sect Leader."

"Then let's go gather evidence!" Jia Yunfeng said, "With a suspect in mind, collecting evidence will be much easier."

While the two were talking, Gao Fei walked out of the Council Hall, and the three of them immediately ran into each other.

"Hmph!"

Jia Yunfeng let out a cold snort, "I will definitely find evidence! Then we'll see how you deny it!"

Lin Meixiu looked coldly at Gao Fei without speaking.

"The weather is really nice today," Gao Fei looked up at the sky, then down at the ground, "The ground is so clean! Not a speck of dust to be seen! The cleaning is impeccable!" Gao Fei walked away nonchalantly, hands behind his back, ignoring Jia Yunfeng from start to finish.

Ignored?

Jia Yunfeng was fuming inside, thinking, "Damn it, just you wait, I'll get you one of these days!"

"I've come to see it clearly now, this Gao Fei is nothing but a rogue!" Lin Meixiu suddenly said.

"Right, a complete rogue!" Jia Yunfeng nodded, "Heaven should really strike him down with a bolt of Divine Thunder to rid the people of this menace!"
