Chapter 11172: Chapter 11171: The Battle of the Three Kingdoms!
Zhangsun Hong shouted,” Mister Lin, we already know about what happened between you and my sister-in-law. You’re an outsider, so we won’t make things difficult for you. Take your woman and leave. You’re not allowed to step into the Duke Protector’s Residence again!”
Everyone froze for a moment before realizing that they were trying to trick Lin Yi.
Everyone stared at Lin Yi’s reaction.
At the same time, Zhangsun Hong quietly tore open a spiritual sense isolation talisman, turning the scene into a spiritual sense forbidden zone for a short period of time.
He was just in case Lin Yi and Ning Yuqi were colluding with each other.
“What are you talking about?” There are so many people. What happened?”
Zhangsun Hong sneered.” Don’t put on airs. You know very well what you’ve done. There’s no need for me to repeat myself!” Mr. Lin, we are still willing to give you a chance, but if you try to take advantage of us, things will be difficult.”
“What’s wrong with you?” Lin Yi was confused. Can you say something that I can understand?”
Everyone looked at each other.
At least up until now, they could not see any flaws.
Ning Yuqi did not interrupt him. She just looked at Zhangsun Hong coldly. She was quite interested in what the second branch’s head wanted to do next.
From her perspective, she really couldn’t think of a way to trap Lin Yi.
“You want to do it the hard way!”
Zhangsun Hong revealed a disappointed expression and shook his head lightly.” In that case, I won’t waste any more time. Let’s directly ask the Heavenly Dao to judge you. Let’s see if the Heavenly Dao will protect you two adulterers!”
With that, a special talisman broke open, and two beams of light representing the judgment of the heavens fell on his and Lin Yi’s heads.
The plot is at its end.
Only then did Ning Yuqi understand, and then it became even more absurd.
She thought that the other party would use all sorts of methods to make Lin Yi leave a trail of gossip, and then continue to pursue the matter.
He did not expect that the other party’s backup plan was actually the Heavenly Dao Judgment!
Did he really believe that she had an affair with Lin Yi?
Ning Yuqi was even a little dazed for a moment. He could not help but start to reflect. Was he really such a promiscuous and shameless woman in the eyes of outsiders?
Lin Yi raised his head and looked up, his eyes narrowing.
Zhangsun Hong’s gaze was burning.” The Heavenly Dao Judgment is the fairest judgment in the world. It will directly interrogate the deepest part of the human heart. In front of it, no secret tricks can be hidden! Lin Yi, if there’s nothing between you and my sister-in-law, this is the best evidence.”
After a pause, he changed the topic.” But if there’s something going on between the two of you, the Heavenly Dao will give you the most severe punishment. If I were you, I would take the initiative to confess now. That way, at least there’s a chance to escape unscathed.”
“Trick me?” Lin Yi smiled.
“I’m giving you a chance,” Zhangsun Hong said sincerely.
“If I didn’t do what you’re saying, you’d be the one in trouble when the Heavenly Judgement falls, right?” Lin Yi asked.
“Of course.”
Zhangsun Hong nodded.” If there’s really nothing between the two of you, then I’m falsely accusing you. The Heavenly Dao will also give you the most severe punishment. After all, the Heavenly Dao is the fairest.”
“If that’s the case, I have no more questions.” Lin Yi shrugged.
On the other side, Ning Yuqi’s expression was also very calm.
The scene of her feeding Lin Yi wine last night was still embarrassing, but there was nothing between them.
Just as Zhangsun Hong had said, the Heavenly Dao was the fairest. The judgment of the Heavenly Dao would never be wrong!
The rest of the people were also looking forward to the outcome of the trial.
This trial of the Heavenly Dao was of great significance to the entire Duke Protector’s Estate because it would determine who would be able to take over the situation in the future.
It was true that the Duke Protector’s Residence was nothing compared to the seven kings ‘mansions. However, to the people present, it was a huge family business that was worth fighting over.
“You’re that fearless?” Lin Yi suddenly said under everyone’s gaze.
” What happened?” Zhangsun Hong laughed.” You still asked this question? It seems like Mister Lin isn’t that confident in himself.”
Everyone looked at Lin Yi as if he was an adulterer.
Zhangsun Hong sneered smugly.
Since he had the confidence to set up this Heavenly Judgment, he had the confidence to win.
This confidence wasn’t built on Lin Yi and Ning Yuqi’s relationship.
Were Lin Yi and Ning Yuqi an adulterous couple?
Zhangsun Hong wasn’t sure.
If he was in Lin Yi’s position, he would definitely be tempted by his sister-in-law’s beauty.
But this was only a guess.
This concerned the entire family business of the Duke Protector’s Estate. It was foolish to bet all of their chances of winning on that unfounded uncertainty.
Truth be told, it didn’t matter if Lin Yi and Ning Yuqi had anything going on between them, the heavens would still be on Lin Yi’s head.
This was the real key!
At the end of the day, this wasn’t a real trial of the Heavenly Dao.
It was a trial of the Heavenly Dao that he had paid a huge price to forge!
Who would be the final judge was completely within his control.
The only thing he had to do was to make everyone believe that this was the true judgment of the Heavenly Dao. Now, his goal had been achieved.
Zhangsun Hong glanced at Ning Yuqi, greed flashing in his eyes.
If he accepted this beautiful sister-in-law at the same time as he took over the Duke Protector’s Residence, just thinking about it made his heart beat faster!
Then, in the next second, the lightning representing the judgment of the Heavenly Dao struck his head.
Caught off guard, Zhangsun Hong’s entire body was charred.
Everyone watched as Zhangsun Hong fell to the ground, and the entire place fell into a strange silence.
Lin Yi shrugged.” It seems like I’m innocent. I could’ve done it with just one sentence. Why did things have to come to this?”
Everyone looked at each other.
The people from the second branch rushed up crying for their parents. In a panic, they carried away the charred Zhangsun Hong, leaving everyone at the scene increasingly silent.
Zhangsun Hong had been struck into such a state, and it was obvious that he could no longer come back to life.
Just a second ago, he was still the head of the second branch, the person most likely to take over the large family business of the Duke Protector’s estate, but in the blink of an eye, he had become a charred corpse. The changes in life’s fortunes were truly disturbing.
However, the one with the most complicated emotions was Third Branch Chief Sun Jie.
What Zhangsun Hong had done previously could be hidden from the others present, but not from him.
He knew that as long as there were no accidents, Lin Yi would definitely die this time. From his point of view, he was happy to see this happen.
