After Being Possessed By A Witch, I Became An Outlaw

Chapter 282 Does Swearing Not Work?

Chapter 282: Swearing is Useless, Isn't It?

Anger makes people impulsive, and it also made the Black Emperor lose his sanity.

After sensing Ao Yue's aura from Miao Feng, he became completely enraged. After angrily killing Miao Feng, he could have gradually regained his sanity, but now Miao Renlong wants revenge again.

During the battle, Ao Mo didn't think too much. He only knew that Ao Long's disappearance must have been caused by Miao Renlong. He wanted to kill him!

It wasn't until Dongfang Changqing reminded him with a single sentence that he suddenly realized that Ao Yue was indeed dead, but Ao Long was still alive.

He should first find Ao Long!

Ao Mo's mood gradually calmed down, and now he just wanted to find clues.

Dongfang Changqing looked at Miao Renlong again. Miao Renlong had fought all night, and he didn't know how many Gu worms had died. He felt a lot of pain in his heart, but his anger couldn't be appeased.

He was wrongly accused!

Miao Feng also died innocently. He must seek justice for Miao Feng and also seek justice for Wanling Cave!

"Miao Senior, I know the whole story, but continuing the battle serves no purpose. Please trust me, I will clarify the truth and give everyone an explanation."

Dongfang Changqing's face was full of righteousness. His appearance made him look like a righteous person, wearing a silk robe with white background and golden patterns, which was quite valuable and added a touch of nobility to him.

He was humble and polite, and Miao Renlong didn't dare to disrespect him.

The Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace, the future first heir of the Eastern Palace.

Among the seven major forces in the Western State, the Eastern Palace was the only imperial force.

The imperial force was called the Great Qian Immortal Dynasty, and the core ruling power was the Eastern Palace.

The Eastern Palace was a force that combined the family system, sect system, and dynasty system.

The core of power was the Dongfang Family, but they also recruited talented disciples to train in the Eastern Palace. There was a very strict hierarchical system internally, and status was not only determined by cultivation level, but also by official positions and ranks.

Like Dongfang Changqing, although he only had the cultivation level of Divine Ability, he had a high status. In the Eastern Palace, he was considered to be above everyone else.

"This guy doesn't distinguish right from wrong, doesn't listen to my explanation. I ask the Crown Prince to help me uphold justice. Miao Feng is the heir I have painstakingly cultivated!"

Miao Renlong emphasized the seriousness of the matter. The status of the heir of a faction and the identity of others were worlds apart.

If it was just an ordinary person who died, the alliance wouldn't make trouble for the Sea Monster Race because of it.

That being said, this fight is finally over.

After Dongfang Changqing agreed to Miao Renlong's words, he turned to look at Ao Mo.

"Black Emperor, why did you kill Miao Senior's son?"

When it came to this, a surge of anger and resentment rose in Ao Mo's heart.

"His son ate my son, and my daughter's disappearance is also related to them. Shouldn't I take action?"

Ah, this...

Dongfang Changqing looked at Miao Renlong with a questioning gaze.

Are you all so brave?

Even Monster Sovereign's son dares to eat?

"It's impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Miao Renlong naturally didn't believe such a thing could happen. Hearing his denial, Ao Mo became furious.

"Are you suggesting that I can't sense my son's aura?"

Ao Mo thought for a moment, then suddenly took action, his tentacles reaching towards a pile of rubble in Dragon City. Before long, he brought up a pile of minced meat.

In front of everyone, his tentacles stirred in the minced meat, finally finding a part that belonged to Ao Yue.

This scene was too stimulating, Long Yan quickly retracted his Divine Ability and dared not look anymore.

She would vomit if she looked for another second.

Dongfang Changqing's smile also became very stiff. As the crown prince, he should always maintain his composure, but at this moment, he really wanted to vomit.

Miao Renlong looked at Ao Mo desecrating his son's corpse like this, and his anger surged. He was about to go berserk, but then he saw Ao Mo find a piece of meat.

Now, his anger extinguished, and his heart turned cold.

Since Miao Feng really ate Ao Mo's son, then his death was in vain. The Western State Alliance would not allow him to continue seeking revenge, and they might even demand that he apologize to the Black Emperor.

In fact, it is not wrong for humans to hunt and eat Demonic Beasts, or use them for alchemy.

The mistake lies in the fact that the other party has a backing, and when they come knocking on the door, this matter cannot be avoided.

But Miao Renlong still couldn't believe it.

He knew Miao Feng's level very well. Where did he get the ability to kill a Monster King on his own?

However, the fact was right in front of him, and Miao Renlong had nowhere to argue.

Even Dongfang Changqing's gaze towards him carried a hint of coldness.

The Eastern Imperial Palace is the Western State's number one power, and naturally, they are the least willing to see Western State in turmoil.

Overall, Western State is actually the most peaceful and harmonious continent.

All the major powers in Western State have united together, and all issues are resolved by the alliance, fair and just, to maintain the stability of the major powers as much as possible.

In recent years, the territories of the major powers have basically remained unchanged, and everyone is peacefully developing their own territories, resolving internal matters internally.

Unlike other places where struggles and conflicts never cease, with major powers attacking each other, it is not uncommon.

Fighting for resources, fighting for opportunities, battles are everywhere.

Only Western State remains peaceful and prosperous.

Now, Western State, which has always been peaceful and stable, is showing signs of a major war with the Sea Clan. The Eastern Imperial Palace naturally cannot accept this.

At this moment, Dongfang Changqing looked at the culprit with a gaze that was no longer as friendly as before.

"The situation is clear. It was Miao's senior's son who was at fault first. Miao senior, you should apologize to the Black Emperor."

Sure enough!

Miao Renlong completely believed that his son was innocent. There must be a conspiracy behind this!

But he had no evidence, only his own trust. Insisting that Miao Feng couldn't have done it might make the situation worse.

He could only get through this situation for now and investigate it secretly before saying anything.

Miao Renlong could only grit his teeth and look at Aomo, saying, "My foolish son has made a big mistake. It was my fault for not investigating. Now that he has offered his life, I ask for your forgiveness."

His apology was not sincere, but no one cared about that.

Apologizing meant he was willing to submit.

Aomo didn't care about his apology either. Can an apology make up for the loss of a beloved child?

It couldn't, but he had already killed Miao Feng, which could be considered an eye for an eye, completing his revenge.

He could temporarily put aside his hatred for Ao Yue. His son, who had the potential to become a Great Emperor, could never come back. He had to at least protect his daughter.

"Between you and me, forgiveness is not the point. I have only one request, give my daughter back to me!"

Upon hearing this, Miao Renlong felt even more aggrieved.

He was innocent, so why was he being blamed again?

"How would I know where your daughter is?"

"Given the situation, are you still trying to argue?"

If it weren't for the undigested flesh found in Miao Feng's body by Aomo earlier, others might still believe what Miao Renlong said.

But now, everyone's suspicious gaze turned towards Miao Renlong.

The Western Emperor also spoke, "The Black Emperor loves his daughter deeply, please understand. Fellow Daoist Miao, I can vouch for you here. As long as you hand over Ao Long, our Sea Clan will no longer trouble you. How about that?"

Miao Renlong didn't feel helped at all. Instead, he became even angrier.

"If Ao Long is not in my hands, how can I hand him over?"

Unfortunately, the only evidence also pointed to him. Miao Renlong said in despair, "I can swear to the Heavenly Dao that I did not imprison the Ao Long you mentioned. If I lie, let the heavens strike me dead!"

Miao Renlong made a solemn oath, instantly increasing his credibility.

Perhaps he really didn't capture Ao Long?

Then where was Ao Long?

Dongfang Changqing also pondered carefully. After a moment, he slowly said, "Is it possible that the truth is actually deceiving you?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

The Black Emperor strongly believed in the truth. He retorted, "If he deceived me, how could I find the murderer who killed my son?"

What about this Heavenly Dao oath? Is it really effective?

The Western Emperor took the opportunity to add, "It has some effect, but not much. The punishment of a Heavenly Dao oath may not come immediately. Most of the time, it takes some time, maybe a few days, or even months or years."

Miao Renlong: "..."

So, even if I made an oath, it's useless?

At this moment, the situation became deadlocked again.

Miao Renlong refused to admit guilt, while the Black Emperor was convinced it was him and even stopped believing in the Heavenly Dao oath.

At this moment, both sides looked at Dongfang Changqing.

Dongfang Changqing had a serious expression and said, "I have a suggestion. Since the Black Emperor insists that your daughter is imprisoned in the Wanling Cave, why don't you personally search the territory of the Wanling Cave? If you find your daughter, the Western State Alliance will definitely punish the Wanling Cave. On the other hand, if you can't find her, it can also prove the innocence of the Wanling Cave."

"How can this be?"

Miao Renlong instinctively wanted to refuse.

As an elder of a faction, how could he allow others to search his home? Wouldn't that be a slap in the face?

But in this situation, his refusal was already ineffective.

Dongfang Changqing looked at him with a hint of suspicion in his eyes and said, "Miao senior, are you unwilling?"

Miao Renlong: "..."

Fine, I'm willing.

"You can search if you want, but you must not harm the insects bred by my sect."

"Miao senior, please rest assured. If Ao Long is not found, I will bear all the losses caused during the search."

Dongfang Changqing was generous, leaving Miao Renlong with nothing to say. He was confident that he hadn't done anything, and there was nothing that could be found in his home, so it didn't matter if they searched.

So, a group of people set off towards the territory of the Wanling Cave.

Miao Renlong was confident and held his breath.

When they were about to reach his doorstep, he said fiercely, "Go ahead and search. I'm waiting for an explanation!"

His confident appearance truly resembled that of an innocent person.

Dongfang Changqing exchanged a glance with the two elders, Shenfeng and Chenguang. They knew that this matter might not be so easily resolved.

However, at this moment, Aomo suddenly manifested a body full of tentacles, all pointing in one direction.

Miao Renlong didn't know the meaning behind this change, but a shadow enveloped his heart...
