“Then let’s have the entire Nie family pay for your stupidity, okay?”
“No, you can’t do this. My father is loyal to you and has never done anything to let you or Jun Lin Hall down!”
Nie Beiwang’s expression changed as he shouted.
No matter what happened to him, he could not let anything happen to the Nie family. He could not let the entire Nie family die with him.
An Jiuyue walked forward and asked, “Loyalty? Is this what you call loyalty?”
How many so-called loyal people were there on Wulong Mountain? They were all here for their own interests. Without benefits involved, there was no loyalty to speak of. Everyone was only here to cultivate more smoothly.
“Since he doesn’t want to talk about it, let’s go to the Nie family and ask him.
Didn’t he say that Master Nie is loyal? He must be willing to talk about it. There’s no need to punish him severely.”
“You—”
Nie Beiwang wanted to scold An Jiuyue, but he remembered An Jiuyue’s identity, which he had learned about earlier, and did not dare to do so.
After all, who would be willing to offend the High Priest Demon Heart openly? Hence, he could only shut his mouth hatefully and not say anything.
“You still don’t want to say it?”
An Jiuyue raised her eyebrows and looked at him before speaking to Qian Jiyun.
“Let’s bring him back and investigate who he interacts with the most. That should give us a rough idea. We can’t keep the Nie family around either. Let’s deal with them as soon as possible.”
“No!”
Upon hearing that An Jiuyue unhesitatingly suggested going to the Nie family, Nie Beiwang naturally refused.
If the Nie family were to be involved, he would be condemned for all eternity.
“What I did has nothing to do with the Nie family. Nothing at all. My father doesn’t know about this.”
“If your father doesn’t know, your mother must know, right?” An Jiuyue probed.
Either his paternal or maternal family, or perhaps his brothers, were involved with Zhao Xiaoli, and they dragged Nie Beiwang into this to shield her?
“What nonsense are you spouting? This has nothing to do with my mother!”
Nie Beiwang became even more agitated at the mention of his mother. If Qian Jiyun had not stepped on him, he would have jumped up and beaten An Jiuyue up.
“It seems like it’s someone from your maternal family.”
An Jiuyue was convinced that Nie Beiwang had followed Zhao Xiaoli here, likely being manipulated by someone from his maternal family. Moreover, this person had a deep relationship with Nie Beiwang’s mother.
“No, I don’t know anything. I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
Nie Beiwang denied it repeatedly. Exposing his mother would implicate even more people. Why was he so unlucky? He had only come to help, but he ended up in a situation like this.
He had thought that his cultivation level was high enough to handle it. He did not expect…
He hated Zhao Xiaoli to the core. Would Qian Jiyun have known he was from the Nie family if she had not called out his name?
He only needed to find an opportunity to escape. He believed he could escape if he was given a chance.
It was all Zhao Xiaoli’s fault!
“I… I’m friends with Zhao Xiaoli. She asked me for a favor. She said she’d give me the Life Stone if I helped her this time.”
He could only take all the blame and implicate Zhao Xiaoli further to let her bear some consequences on his behalf.
“Ha!” An Jiuyue chuckled and glanced at Qian Jiyun.. “Do you believe that?”
