”Xinxia?” A twisted grin slowly surfaced on Mo Fan's face.
The Parthenon Temple, that goddamned Parthenon Temple, could they do something even more ridiculous!?
”Mo Fan, calm down first,” Tangyue said hastily.
The three could sense Mo Fan's demon blood being awakened for a second. The thing they worried about the most almost happened!
”There's no point of calming down here. The Parthenon Temple is asking for it. I wouldn't mind demolishing their temple and razing their mountain to the ground!” Mo Fan said coldly.
”Just listen until we finish explaining it,” Tang Zhong said.
”What else do you have to explain? Besides, are you three out of your minds too? Salan is Salan, Xinxia is Xinxia; there's no way they are the same person! I didn't think the Parthenon Temple would come up with such a ridiculous accusation for the sake of their election!” Mo Fan said.
Mo Fan had already felt that something was not right when Xinxia was promoted to a Saintess so easily. He was wondering if someone was using her as a pawn.
As he thought, as the date of the election approached, the Candidates were taken out one by one, and it was Xinxia's turn now...
Did the Parthenon Temple seriously fail to find a better excuse to disqualify Xinxia from the election? Did they seriously have to come up with such a ridiculous accusation? The truth was quite obvious, hence Mo Fan was unwilling to listen any further.
He would go to Greece at once and bring Xinxia back. If the maniacs of the Parthenon Temple dared to stop him, he would not show any mercy!
”Is she alright?” Mo Fan asked.
”She's imprisoned in the Saintess' Hall in the Hall of the Goddess. She's fine for now, but the judges have started to vote whether if she's guilty,” Tang Zhong said.
”I'll leave right now!” Mo Fan turned around and headed for the exit, but Leng Qing immediately stepped in front of him.
”Listen to what we have to say before you make your decision. We won't stop you, since someone you care the most is involved, but I do hope that you can understand the situation first, because everything that happened is very unfavorable for Xinxia! If you can't prove Xinxia's innocence and try to bring Xinxia away with force, you will be going against the Parthenon Temple and the Holy Judgment Court! That's pretty serious. Even if you use the Demon Element, you won't be able to rescue Xinxia!” Leng Qing said to Mo Fan in a serious voice.
”Fine, I'll listen,” Mo Fan sat down.
He was interested in seeing what ridiculous evidence did Parthenon Temple came up with.
This was absurd! Xinxia was Salan?

”First of all, you need to know why Xinxia was arrested. They accused her of killing the Saintess Panijia, and Xinxia admitted it too,” Leng Qing said.
”I won't be surprised that someone was framed in the competition between the Saintesses. It's normal if Xinxia was forced to admit it,” Mo Fan replied.
”Let's assume Xinxia is Salan. Panijia asked Xinxia to meet her alone in the Saintess' Hall. Saintess Panijia had evidence to prove that Xinxia was Salan, so she was planning to confront Xinxia, but Xinxia killed her. However, Panijia was being extra careful. As soon as Xinxia killed Panijia, she was surrounded by people in the Saintess' Hall. No one witnessed the murder, but the two of them were the only people in the Saintess' Hall, and Panijia's heart was found beside Xinxia's wheelchair, while her hands were covered in Panijia's blood. Panijia still had her last breath when the people came in, and they saw her pointing at Xinxia before she fell,” Leng Qing said.
Mo Fan frowned.
Based on Leng Qing's description, there were quite a lot of witnesses to the incident, and Panijia had only died moments before. From a normal person's perspective, Xinxia was clearly the murderer, yet how did the culprit do it? How did the culprit force Xinxia to kill Panijia?
”Mind control, if Xinxia's mind was being controlled, that explains why she did it,” Mo Fan rebuked.
”A master of the Psychic Element personally checked if Xinxia was being controlled, but the answer is no. The trace of a person's mind being controlled will stay in the victim's mind for at least seventy-two hours. If Xinxia really was being controlled, we should be able to find the Psychic Trace in Xinxia's mind, but the result is negative. Xinxia was not controlled,” Leng Qing said.
”Was that master of Psychic Element reliable?” Mo Fan asked.
”He's Pang Lai's good friend, one of the best Psychic Mages of our country. He wouldn't set Xinxia up, and it was only a coincidence that he was there. The Parthenon Temple initially wanted to let their Psychic Mage do it, but Fang Yunya was worried that Xinxia had been set up in the competition between the Saintesses. He volunteered to do the job, but in the end, he did not find any Psychic Trace in Xinxia's Spiritual World,” Leng Qing said.
”There must be something we've missed,” Mo Fan said.
”Possibly, but let's put that aside, it's only the fuse to the whole incident. Whether or not Xinxia murdered the Saintess isn't our concern here.”
A Saintess had been murdered...
An incident like that was surely going to shock the world, yet it was not even the priority compared to the thing they were about to discuss!
