Sect - Chapter 31: Framed (1/2)

Zhu Xianling was already kneeling on the ground and being interrogated by the Zhu Clan by the time Su Chen arrived

It was i out a clan was incredibly serious

However, to Su Chen, the scene before his very eyes as noteworthy - it was identical to the scene he had seen on the altar

So the cost was low because the outcoed?

Su Chen had considered stopping Zhu Xianyao when she was heading for the main hall, because he still had some suspicions in his heart

However, a question about the cost of the sacrifice surfaced in his heart at that moment

He had made a prediction within the rules, so he didn’t atte the situation to unfold exactly as the Origin Bone Scepter had predicted

The prediction was unchanged and became reality, which was the reason why the cost was so low

What if he had tried to stop her?

If he had stopped Zhu Xianyao, the prediction would have changed

But the prediction had already been made at that point, and the resources had been taken, so the cost would have been low either way If he had forcibly tried to change the outcome, then it would be at odds with the sacrifice he had been required to make in order to obtain this prediction

The cost of the prediction was ed What would have happened if he had tried to change the prediction on a whiin Bone Scepter know froe the outcome? And was that why it had chosen a low cost?

Or was it secretly influencing hiher power? Or were the powers of ti with the situation?

Su Chen didn’t know After all, his previous experiin Bone Scepters were all quiteinto contact with this aspect of the scepter

The interrogation of Zhu Xianling was continuing within thethe situation, and Zhu Yunyan was totally stunned when she heard

Zhu Yunyan asked, “Little Yao, are you sure that’s the truth?”

Zhu Xianyao replied, “Mother, Xianyao’s every word is true”

“Since that’s the case, would you be able to tell me what secret technique Su Chen used?”

“This……” Zhu Xianyao turned around to glance at Su Chen Without his pere that information

“A kind of time technique which requires Sands of Time to use,” Su Chen said as he pulled out a handful of sand

The Origin Bone Scepter was an incredibly important item There was no way that he would reveal its existence Otherwise, the person being interrogated wouldn’t be Zhu Xianling but hih the Sands of Time were a precious treasure, their value was far lower than the Origin Bone Scepter because of the fact that they were consuin Bone Scepter

The principles behind the Dao of Time were incredibly profound, and no one really knehether or not the Sands of Time could be used in this way Since Su Chen said that he could, then they accepted it

Zhu Xianling harrumphed “So you don’t have any evidence at all? You used an iinary prediction to try and pin this cririly, “Who else could it be if it wasn’t you? Back then……”

“Xianyao!” Su Chen interrupted her

He knew that Zhu Xianyao wanted to punish Zhu Xianling for trying to kill her, but noas not the right ti it up noould only e Even though Zhu Xianling’s cri to assassinate her older sister was despicable, the cri out the clan was an entirely different matter

Zhu Xianyao also realized this, so she quickly closed her lare at Zhu Xianling, breathing hard with anger

Zhu Xianling said, “Mother, are you really going to allow an outsider to huhter like this?”

Zhu Yunyan’s eyebroere firether in a frown “Su Chen, do you have any evidence to suggest that Zhu Xianling sold out the Zhu Clan?”

Unexpectedly, Su Chen replied, “I never believed that Second Young Miss sold out the Zhu Clan”

What?

Everyone stared at Su Chen

Su Chen said, “I only saw fro to be interrogated”

“Is there a difference?”

“Of course Predictions are not omniscient, and they cannot be used as question-answer machines All it can do is present me with some representation of a certain situation that occurs in time As for whether or not this representation is true or not, or what the is are what they need to be concerned about”

Everyone understood what Su Chenwas going to be interrogated, but it did not predict what the outco to be

In other words, it was quite likely that Zhu Xianling was being wronged, and that the outcoation would find that she was blameless However, none of this was presented in the prediction, so no one was able to knohich was true

Believing that Zhu Xianling had sold out the clan si

Zhu Xianyao was equally surprised “Su Chen, you……”

“Xianyao, I understand how you feel, but I must tell the truth,” Su Chen said “I came here to marry you, not to har Miss has sold out the clan, I cannot say, as the prediction hsa not told me As such, I must clarify the situation”

Zhu Xianyao felt her heart treh she was upset that Su Chen wasn’t speaking on her behalf, she had to adical The frustration in her heart had no outlet, so she could only glare at Zhu Xianling In her heart, Zhu Xianling ithout question the individual who had sold out the clan
