Chapter 507: I should ask the priest to help me calculate the amount of money before going out today
Seeing that Sheng Yulin was slow to move, Wei Xiao prepared to help him.
Wei Xiao slowly raised his right hand, and gently clenched his slender fingers into a fist.
At the moment he clenched his fist, the small ball in his palm that had been carefully condensed beforehand was like an energy core that had been compressed to the extreme.
It exploded in an instant with a "pop" sound. Although the sound was not loud, it seemed to have created an invisible ripple in the air.
Then, a mirror appeared in Wei Xiao's hand.
The mirror is pure white, with delicate patterns on the edges and a faint shimmer.
The angel depicted on the mirror is lifelike, with a peaceful face and clear texture on its wings, which seem to emit a soft light.
The mirror as a whole exudes a noble and holy atmosphere, as if it can purify everything around it.
Sheng Yulin looked at his empty hands, then raised his eyes to look at the one in Wei Xiao's hand:
How did the Angel Holy Mirror end up in Sheng Yuxiao's hands?
(Today is really weird. My cultivation is clearly at level 13, while Sheng Yuxiao is only level 12, 3 stars. Why am I restricted by him in every way? I should ask the priest to help me calculate before I go out today.)
Wei Xiao easily unsealed the seal on the Angel Holy Mirror, and then shone it towards Sheng Yulin without hesitation.
A trace of panic flashed across Sheng Yulin's face as if visible to the naked eye. He manipulated his earth-based abilities to quickly raise a jade wall in front of him, blocking all the light released by the Angel Holy Mirror.
Wei Xiao took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the surface of the Angel Holy Mirror, then slowly raised his eyes and looked at Sheng Yulin with a cold light flashing in his eyes.
"What are you blocking? Since you said I was talking nonsense, now is your chance to prove yourself."
"You are so secretive, people who don't know would think that the Palace Master is guilty."
Wei Xiao repeated to Sheng Yulin exactly what he had said before, feeling secretly pleased.
Seeing Sheng Yulin's reaction, the onlookers began to engage in heated discussions again.
"Ah? The accident that happened to His Highness Sheng Yuxiao couldn't have been planned by His Highness Sheng Yulin, right?"
"Looking at His Highness Sheng Yulin's reaction, it's really possible."
"Don't forget that when His Highness Sheng Yuxiao was injured, the biggest beneficiary was the current Lord of the Shenghuan Palace, Sheng Yulin."
"Impossible, His Highness Sheng Yulin would never do such a thing!"
"Whether the incident back then had anything to do with His Highness Sheng Yulin, we'll know after we use the Angel Holy Mirror to judge!"
"His Highness Sheng Yulin is the supreme leader of the Holy Illusion Palace. If his cultivation regresses or he is left with some sequelae after being tried, wouldn't the entire Holy Illusion Palace and the area under its jurisdiction be in chaos?"
"If you put it that way, His Highness Sheng Yuxiao shouldn't be judged by the Angel Holy Mirror. His cultivation talent has just been restored. If something bad happens to him again, it will be a great loss to our Angel Temple."
Soon, the crowd started arguing and automatically divided into two factions, one supporting Sheng Yuxiao and the other supporting Sheng Yulin.
After a while, Sheng Yuxiao raised his hand gently. The seemingly unintentional action seemed to carry an invisible deterrent force, which instantly stopped the turbulent noise at the scene and made the whole scene quiet.
He slowly raised his eyes and looked at Wei Xiao, and said calmly,
"Xiao'er, there must have been some misunderstanding. I would never do anything to my own brother!"
"It was indeed my fault today. I shouldn't have doubted you, Xiao'er, just because of someone's report."
"I shouldn't use the Angel's Holy Mirror to judge you when there is not enough evidence."
"Since you said, Xiao'er, that you didn't steal the Holy Angel Feather without permission, then I believe you."
"There must be some hidden reason behind the loss of the Angel's Holy Feather."
"Now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, this matter is over."
"Xiao'er, return the Angel Holy Mirror to me. Let's go back to our own business. Let's all go our separate ways."
(Sheng Yulin:
He came here clearly to accuse Sheng Yu Xiaoan of a crime, take back his military power, deprive him of his title of Holy King, and prepare to get rid of him in the future.
But how did things turn out like this? It seemed that getting rid of Sheng Yuxiao required a long-term plan.
Damn it! It was obviously Sheng Yuxiao who took the Holy Angel Feather, but now he can’t be punished.)
(Wei Xiao: Do you think you can just let this go? That’s wishful thinking!)
Wei Xiao saw Sheng Yulin reaching out to take the Angel Holy Mirror and stopped him,
"Wait a minute, Palace Master. I am actually willing to accept the trial of the Angel Holy Feather to prove my innocence."
"But we have so many holy feathers of angels in the Holy Illusion Palace. You have to tell us which one you lost, right? Then we can ask everyone to help find it later."
(Sheng Yulin raised his eyes and looked at Wei Xiao with a slightly narrowed expression: Why did Sheng Yuxiao suddenly agree?)
Sheng Yulin remained silent for a long time without saying anything, and Wei Xiao and the onlookers gradually ran out of patience.
The people around urged him,
"Palace Master, please tell me. If it really wasn't stolen by His Highness Sheng Yuxiao, we can help look for it later."
After all, they are the people under the jurisdiction, protection and care of the Holy Illusion Palace, and they also have the obligation to help retrieve the Holy Illusion Palace's treasure.
Seeing that Sheng Yulin was trying to snatch the Angel Holy Mirror from him again, Wei Xiao hid the Angel Holy Mirror behind him and said provocatively:
"Palace Master, don't worry. Tell me which Angel's Holy Feather you lost first, and I will return the Angel's Holy Mirror to you."
"But, could it be that the Palace Master doesn't know which angel's holy feather was lost?"
"Or maybe the Angel's Holy Feather was never lost. This was all a play directed and performed by the Palace Master himself, and his purpose was..."
Having said that, Wei Xiao deliberately paused for a moment, and there was a hint of teasing in his eyes as he looked at Sheng Yulin in front of him.
Sheng Yulin failed to take back the Angel Holy Mirror from Sheng Yuxiao several times in a row. He was depressed and puzzled, and frowned slightly in displeasure.
There was a hint of obvious impatience in his tone when he spoke next.
"Xiao'er is really overthinking it. The fact that the Angel Holy Feather is lost is definitely true."
"Since you insist on knowing which angel's holy feather the Holy Illusion Palace lost, then I will tell you."
"It is the one left by the previous hall master. It contains strong wood, fire, and lightning abilities."
(Sheng Yulin:
Later, we just need to activate the reflection function of the Angel Holy Mirror. As long as the pattern of the Angel Holy Feather appears on the mirror,
Unless Sheng Yuxiao sacrifices 80% of his cultivation to activate the Angel Holy Mirror's retracing function, he will not be able to explain himself.
If Sheng Yuxiao is willing to sacrifice 80% of his cultivation to prove his innocence, then his goal will be achieved.
Moreover, he had already absorbed about 70% of the energy contained in that feather.
Even if Sheng Yuxiao could return the feather, he could still frame Sheng Yuxiao and say that the energy inside was absorbed by Sheng Yuxiao.
Then we can punish Sheng Yuxiao.)
"Okay Xiao'er, I've finished. Now you can..." Return the Angel Holy Mirror to me, and then...
(Sheng Yulin:
Tsk, my cultivation and status are obviously higher than Sheng Yuxiao's, so why should I still speak to Sheng Yuxiao in a negotiating tone?
But why did Sheng Yuxiao insist on making me know exactly which angel holy feather I lost? Could it be...)
