Translator: 549690339

Since Shangguan Tianhua had no intention of putting pressure on the law enforcement Hall, if the southern Heaven Gate wanted to find Lin er, they could only turn their attention to Hong Zhong. If they could persuade Shangguan Tianhua to put pressure on Hong Zhong, not only would they be able to find out Lin er’s background, but they could also vent their anger for themselves. It was killing two birds with one stone!

Although the situation at the Hong Chamber of Commerce today was completely out of his expectations-Hong Zhong, that old fogey, did not even care about the letter personally written by the four directions supervisor of the Hong shadow group-from the southern Heaven Gate’s point of view, no matter how strong-willed Hong Zhong was, as long as Shangguan Tianhua was willing to speak up for him, he would have no choice but to obediently kneel and lick Shangguan Tianhua’s boots.

Even a powerful Dragon could not suppress a local snake. Moreover, in front of Shangguan Tianhua, the top boss of the North Island, even if Hong Zhong was a manager of the Hong Chamber of Commerce, he was far from being a powerful Dragon. He could not even be considered a snake. At most, he was just a worm.

“You’re saying that Hong Zhong is behind this? Do you have any evidence?” Shangguan Tianhua asked with a slight frown.

To be honest, he and Hong Zhong were both top bosses on the North Island. One was second to none, and the other was the spokesperson of the Hong Chamber of Commerce in the North Island. Not only did they have many collaborations with the officials, but the personal relationship between the two was also quite good.

However, in Shangguan Tianhua’s knowledge, Hong Zhong had always been kind and kind to others. He was well-known, so how could he add fuel to the fire on this matter?

“Reporting to Pavilion master, before this disciple’s third brother met with an accident, he was thrown down from the second floor of the Hong Chamber of Commerce by Hong Zhong’s men because of Lin er’s matter. Moreover, on the day third brother fought with Lin er, he deliberately let Lin er hide in the Hong Chamber of Commerce for two hours. A mere peak early Foundation Stage cultivator was able to kill this disciple’s third brother, who was at the peak of the late Foundation Stage, in one move after leaving the Hong Chamber of Commerce. There are many witnesses to this matter, so this disciple does not dare to lie or conceal anything. Pavilion master, please investigate!” South Heaven Gate knelt down again and kowtowed.

Lin Yi’s instant kill of Nan tianyong had nothing to do with Hong Zhong, but from other people’s point of view, it was natural for Lin Yi to throw this basin of dirty water on Hong Zhong. Otherwise, who would believe that a mere peak of the early Foundation Stage could kill a peak of the late Foundation Stage in one move?

Perhaps only the Hong Chamber of Commerce, which had gathered countless treasures, could do this. Perhaps they had some kind of one-time-use treasure that could instantly kill an expert at the peak of the late Foundation establishment stage?

Not to mention that Lin Yi did stay in the Chamber of Commerce for a full two hours. It was enough time for him to do anything and it would be hard not to suspect him!

Shangguan Tianhua took a deep look at southern sky Gate, who was kneeling on the ground, and his expression immediately became a little more serious. This kind of thing that could be found out with a simple question, southern sky Gate would definitely not dare to hide it from him. In this case, the Hong Chamber of Commerce, especially Hong Zhong, could not escape from the responsibility of Nan tianyong’s death.

After a moment of silence, Shangguan Tianhua finally spoke,””Alright, I’ll ask Hong Zhong about this.”

Although he had a good personal relationship with Hong Zhong, Shangguan Tianhua had always been impartial. Since Hong Zhong was suspected of adding fuel to the fire, as the pavilion master of the rising Sky Pavilion, he had to step in and ask about it.

When South Heaven Gate heard this, he was overjoyed. As long as Shangguan Tianhua was willing to step in, he would have achieved his goal today!

As long as Shangguan Tianhua stepped in, Hong Zhong would not dare to hide anything about Lin er’s identity, unless he no longer wanted to stay on the North Island.

Just as Southern Heaven Gate was rejoicing, Shangguan LAN ‘er suddenly spoke,””Grandpa, you shouldn’t do this,”

Inappropriate, my ass! It was only right for the pavilion master of the rising Sky Pavilion to ask about it on behalf of his disciple. It was inappropriate, your sister!

Southern sky Gate almost wanted to curse, but when he saw that it was Shangguan LAN ‘er who said it, he could only hold back his vulgarities. Not only could he not have any dissatisfaction, but he also had to smile awkwardly.

“Oh? What’s wrong? Xiao LAN ‘er, tell us. ” Shangguan Tianhua asked with great interest.

In front of his granddaughter, he was just an ordinary kind elder. Although Shangguan LAN ‘er did not like cultivation, she had been intelligent since she was young and often had a clear and original view of many things. On the contrary, she was not like him, who was in a high position and was sometimes blinded by some interests.

Shangguan LAN ‘er said seriously,”Grandpa, you once taught me that a gentleman can’t complain and cultivate by himself. Nan tianyong couldn’t beat Lin er and lost his life, but he insisted on blaming Grandpa Hong, who was obviously an outsider. He even had to trouble you to stand up for him. Isn’t that ridiculous? If this is the first time, does that mean that you’ll have to stand up for any rising Sky Pavilion disciple who loses a fight in the future?”

“Uh, young miss, Hong Zhong actually can’t be considered an outsider. He’s suspected of adding fuel to the fire …” Southern Heaven Gate quickly straightened his neck and explained.

“Add fuel to the fire? Do you have any evidence?” Shangguan LAN ‘er rolled her eyes at him, and said,””What you said just now, from the beginning to the end, there’s not a single sentence that can prove that Grandpa Hong really did interfere, right? Or can you use your life to guarantee that the killer move Lin er used to kill Nan tianyong was provided to him by Grandpa Hong for free?”

“This …” Southern Heaven Gate was left speechless.

How could he have evidence for such a thing? It was nothing more than pouring the dirty water on Hong Zhong through ordinary people’s logical thinking. He didn’t have the courage and boldness to really guarantee it with his life!

And even if he could prove that Lin er’s weapon was given to him by Hong Zhong, how could he prove that Hong Zhong had provided it to him for free? at the end of the day, it was all Hong Zhong’s own words, it was simply an unsolvable problem!

Helplessly, South Heaven Gate could only turn to Shangguan Tianhua. He had no way of refuting Shangguan LAN ‘er’s words. Even if he could, he would not dare to. What if this miss Shangguan bore a grudge?

If this young lady were to say a few bad things in front of her grandfather, the southern Heaven Gate’s future would be ruined. So what if he was the eldest senior brother of the manager of the rising Sky Pavilion? Shangguan Tianhua could easily make him fall to the ground with a single thought!

Fortunately, the southern Heaven Gate was glad that this was only lady Shangguan’s own opinion. As the pavilion master of the rising Sky Pavilion, Shangguan Tianhua’s first consideration was profit. He was not as naive as this lady.

However, Shangguan Tianhua’s next words made the southern Heaven Gate’s jaw drop.

“A gentleman can’t complain. Little LAN ‘er is right. I can’t trouble my old friend, Hong Zhong, for such a trivial matter.” Shangguan Tianhua said with a smile.
