Sheng Xiao handed her a gla.s.s of red wine.

Yu Huang took the red wine and sniffed the wine gla.s.s. She suddenly looked up and asked Sheng Xiao, “You didn’t put any drugs in the wine gla.s.s, did you?”

Sheng Xiao’s expression stiffened.

Noticing his reaction, Yu Huang’s eyes instantly narrowed. “You’re really letting her go?”

Sheng Xiao chuckled. “I was going to.”

Yu Huang frowned. Sheng Xiao said, “But you’re a Purifying Spirit Master. Once you find out that you’re drugged, you can use Purifying Spirit Power to expel them from your body. I thought about it and didn’t do it.” Then, Sheng Xiao raised his eyebrows and asked Yu Huang, “Do you believe me?”

Yu Huang relaxed. “Sorry, I’m just a little…”

She was too nervous.

Sheng Xiao reached out and held Yu Huang’s waist. He lowered his head and kissed her forehead. He said softly, “I’m worried about you.” He felt that there was something wrong with Yu Huang, but he couldn’t tell what it was.

The feeling Yu Huang gave him was like a balloon that had been blown very big. She looked cute and beautiful, but a light poke would cause an explosion.

He felt that Yu Huang was pretending to be tough.

Even though her back was straight at the moment, it gave Sheng Xiao the illusion that her spine would break in the next second.

Yu Huang knew how sensitive Sheng Xiao was. She was afraid that Sheng Xiao wouldn’tice something wrong, so she said, “I just don’t want to see my adoptive father die.”

“But he’s the murderer.” Sheng Xiao was calm and rational. “If he really harmed two Prime Masters, he should be punished. No one is exempt from the Beast Tamer law.”

Yu Huang lowered her head and took a sip of wine. Once her sensitive body touched alcohol, there would be a chemical reaction, and her consciousness became blurred. She was afraid that she would spout nonsense, so she cast a silencing spell on herself in advance before her consciousness became completely disoriented.

Sheng Xiao saw that Yu Huang consciousness was disoriented and her eyes looked gla.s.sy. She couldn’t focus on anything. He shouted tentatively, “Wine.”

Yu Huang glanced at him lazily.

Sheng Xiao swirled the wine in his gla.s.s. He asked softly, “You have a secret, don’t you? That secret can’t be revealed, but it makes you feel distressed, right?”

Yu Huang nodded vigorously.

Sheng Xiao continued, “That secret is related to the Grand State Master, right?”

Yu Huang blinked.

Sheng Xiao reached out and held Yu Huang’s face. He moved closer to Yu Huang and asked coaxingly, “Tell me what the Grand State Master said to you, okay? Tell me. Let’s think of a way to solve it together, okay?”

Yu Huang opened her mouth to say something, but when she opened her mouth, what came out was, “Ahhh…”

Sheng Xiao frowned. He stepped back and stared at Yu Huang’s rosy lips. He was deep in thought for a moment before he showed a shocked look. Sheng Xiao said in disbelief, “You cast a silencing spell on yourself?”

Yu Huang said, “Ahhh…”

She knew that Sheng Xiao had an ulterior motive for giving her wine.

So he wanted to get information.

Seeing that Yu Huang had cast a silencing spell on herself, Sheng Xiao knew that she wasn’t drunk. He touched his nose in embarra.s.sment and explained, “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have tested you, but I want to know what the Grand State Master said to you today. What you said in the elevator made me feel that you were saying that on purpose.”

Yu Huang was shocked and glad to hear Sheng Xiao’s words.

Fortunately, she was smart enough to silence herself in time.

Sheng Xiao couldn’t get anything out of Yu Huang. He could only give up. He put down his wine gla.s.s and stood up. “I know that you didn’t tell the truth about the Grand State Master. Although I don’t know why you did it, I will support your decision.”

Yu Huang smiled when she heard this. As she smiled, she felt like crying.

The next morning, at eight o’clock, the conference room of the Beast Tamer Alliance’s headquarters was filled with Beast Tamers.

All the members, vice president, and staff were present.

The representatives of the Dongfang Clan and the Snake Clan were also sitting in the gallery.

The person presiding over the meeting was Lu Yubei. Lu Yubei presented Bai Zhenzhen and Dongfang Sile’s autopsy reports to every Beast Tamer through the huge screen.

Lu Yubei faced the seat where the Snake Clan representative was sitting and said in a low voice, “After the autopsy, the forensic doctor found residual terpsich.o.r.emia in Senior Bai Zhenzhen’s lips, teeth, and throat. There was also a small amount of terpsich.o.r.emia in the middle of her blood vessel.”

“The forensic doctor thinks that Senior Bai Zhenzhen accidentally came into contact with Jinghong Luo through her lips, causing her body to be paralyzed. That’s why she was instantly frozen in an ice pillar. According to the forensic doctor’s appraisal, Senior Bai Zhenzhen didn’t have any other fatal wounds. Therefore, the forensic doctor speculated that Bai Zhenzhen was… frozen to death.”

The room was in an uproar.

“Frozen to death?” Bai Xi suddenly stood up and questioned angrily, “That’s impossible! Although the Snake Clan members are afraid of the cold, Senior Bai Zhenzhen was already a Prime Master at that time. How could she be afraid of the cold?!”

The others nodded as well.

Lu Yubei opened another photo. In this photo, there was a Spirit Plundering Formation at the top of the ice cave.

Lu Yubei explained, “It’s like this. Senior Bai Zhenzhen was instantly frozen. When she was frozen, the spiritual power in her body was also temporarily frozen. Therefore, after Senior Bai Zhenzhen was frozen, her body was as afraid of the cold as ordinary snake people were. Once the Spirit Plundering Formation was activated, it continuously extracted the spiritual power in Senior Bai Zhenzhen’s body.”

“Therefore, even if Senior Bai Zhenzhen recovered her consciousness after that, she wouldn’t have been able to mobilize her spiritual power to save herself.”

Hearing this, the Snake Clan members led by Bai Xi stood up angrily and cursed, “The murderer is so despicable! He actually dared to take Senior Bai Zhenzhen’s life in such a cruel way! a.s.sistant Lu, President, have you found out who the murderer is?!”

Lu Yubei nodded at Sheng Lingfeng and said, “The President will give everyone an explanation about the ident.i.ty of the murderer.”
