Chapter 1184 - False Countercharge (2/2)
“Thus, Chu Feng, it is best for you to not continue to slander Yuan Qing. Otherwise, we will truly not hold back against you.” said the elders of the Orion Monastery in anger.
“Good, very good. What a great ‘vouch for Yuan Qing with our dignity.’ Since you elders are willing to vouch for Yuan Qing, then I have a question that I wish to ask Yuan Qing.”
“Yuan Qing, since you’ve obtained the Commander Flag, where is the Commander Flag? As far as I know, you have yet to exchange your Commander Flag for the rewards, right?”
“Since you’ve yet to exchange it for the rewards, it means that the Commander Flag must most definitely be on you. Are you daring enough to take it out so that we can see it?” Chu Feng asked Yuan Qing.
“That’s right, although Yuan Qing obtained the Commander Flag, it appears that no one have seen him take out the Commander Flag before. He hasn’t exchanged the Commander Flag for the rewards in the Mission Plaza either. So where exactly is the Commander Flag?”
As expected, once Chu Feng said those words, many people started to put everything together. As none of them had seen Yuan Qing’s Commander Flag before, this caused many of them to become suspicious of Yuan Qing. More and more people began to question the authenticity of this genius.
“Yuan Qing, take out the Commander Flag and show it to him so that he has nothing to say,” said an elder from the Orion Monastery with a loud voice.
“Elders, I…” Yuan Qing was forced into a dead end by Chu Feng. At this moment, not only was his complexion pale, he was also sweating and trembling. Even his speech had started to stutter and tremble.
Faced with the questioning from the crowd, he finally clenched his teeth and said, “The Commander Flag, the Commander Flag, I’ve… lost it.”
“What? You’ve lost the Commander Flag?” Hearing those words, not to mention the others, even the expressions of those elders from the Orion Monastery changed greatly.
They had all vouched for Yuan Qing with their own dignity. Yet, Yuan Qing was actually unable to take out the Commander Flag right now and even said that he had lost it. Wasn’t this equivalent to a slap to their faces?
“Elders, I, Yuan Qing, have let you all down. However, I have truly lost the Commander Flag. I should’ve told you all about this matter sooner, I should not have concealed it. Elders, please punish me.” Gnas.h.i.+ng his teeth with anger, Yuan Qing confirmed the matter.
“Lost it? From the way I see it, it’s not that you’ve lost it, but instead, that you never obtained it to begin with and have never even seen what it looks like, no?” said Chu Feng with a smile on his face.
“I have lost it, so whatever you say now is fine. However, Chu Feng, I truly do not understand why must you attack me like this. Could it be that you’re jealous and envious of me? Is that the reason that caused you to harbor such hatred for me?”
“I know, that must be the reason. You were among the people who entered the Ancient Era’s Immortal Pond alongside me. However, the person who triggered the Ancient Era’s Immortal Needle in the end was me and not you.”
“Ever since that time, you’ve hated me to the bones and planned to frame me the entire time. Today, you’ve finally managed to obtain what you wanted, isn’t that right?”
“However, I’ll tell you this. You are wrong. The eyes of the elders are bright and clear. The senior brothers and sisters of the Cyanwood Mountain are sensible people. It is impossible for this little scheme of yours to deceive them. It is impossible for you to entrap me. In the end, you will only become a laughingstock, everyone’s object of contempt.”
Yuan Qing was nearly forced insane by Chu Feng. At this moment, he was finally unable to restrain himself anymore and burst forth with all of the anger within his heart. However, Yuan Qing was very intelligent. Not only did he provide an explanation for himself, he even made a false countercharge against Chu Feng.
“Jealous of you? Envious of you? Hey hey hey, Yuan Qing, aren’t you thinking too highly of yourself? Why don’t you carefully inspect yourself and see exactly what you possess that is worthy of my jealousy? Is there even anything that you have that surpa.s.ses me?”
“You say you’ve lost the Commander Flag, in that case, how did you lose it and where did you lose it? Are you able to tell us that? Even if you are to lie, you should make your lies out to be reasonable, no?” Chu Feng had already antic.i.p.ated that Yuan Qing would countercharge him. He was not angered in the slightest. Instead, he was smiling an extremely brilliant smile. Everything was within Chu Feng’s grasp.
