Chapter 296: Sneak Attack
Therefore, the purpose of his saying this was to shift the conflict into Maple Leaf Valley and weaken his presence.
He didn't know what the person behind this was planning, but he could see that the person behind it wanted to intensify the conflict between him and the disciples of Maple Leaf Valley.
Going a step further, it would intensify the conflict between Zuimeng Island and Maple Leaf Valley.
After all, Uncle Xi and an elder in Maple Leaf Valley almost had a life-and-death battle, right?
His call was effective.
Last time, the disciples of Linjiu City all showed some hesitation on their faces, and it was obvious that they were not as confident as before.
The disciples who did not go to Linjiu City last time also frowned slightly, as if they were thinking about the possibility of Yun Huizhou's words.
Only the disciple who attacked had his head down, wondering what he was thinking. After a while, he said, "This is just your one-sided statement. We were all there and heard what Senior Sister said after receiving the letter. Not only us, but also Master Hou, the disciples of Guihai School, and Xingyu School were there. They can all testify that Senior Sister said it was you who asked her out."
After hearing what he said, the Maple Leaf Valley disciples who were originally a little shaken became determined again. They looked at Yun Huizhou one by one, and it was obvious that they still wanted to find Yun Huizhou to ask for people.
Lian Li sneered in his heart. This disciple should be the one behind the scenes. He just didn't know whether he was sent to Maple Leaf Valley since he was a child, or replaced the original disciple later.
However, seeing that his expression was exactly the same as those killers when he made the move, Lian Li felt that he was most likely the one who replaced him later.
The disciples of Maple Leaf Valley did not find anything unusual, which was enough to show that the disciples' presence might be very low. Secondly, the other party must be a master of disguise.
The most important thing is that when this person attacked just now, he was indeed using Maple Leaf Valley’s martial arts.
If Maple Leaf Valley's own position is correct, then it is very likely that their martial arts have been leaked or there is a traitor.
These thoughts flashed through Lian Li's mind for only a moment before he began to speak.
Faced with the dirty water thrown by the other party, Lian Li was not prepared to fall into self-proof. Although they had self-proof certification, he still decided to seize the opponent's loopholes first and attack the opponent to make him lose his composure.
"You keep saying that it was Zhang Ning who said it, but you haven't seen the letter yourself. How can you prove that Zhang Ning is telling the truth? And how can you prove that the letter was definitely written by Yun Huizhou? You can't prove anything and yet you come looking for someone. How dare you come to us and ask for someone?"
"You and Zhang Ning just open your mouth and close your mouth. You don't even have any evidence, but you throw such a big bucket of dirty water on Yun Huizhou. We are lucky enough not to cause trouble to you, but you still have the nerve to come to our door."
"Will Yun Huizhou write to Zhang Ning? Doesn't Zhang Ning have any idea? Yun Huizhou avoids her like the plague. Even if she doesn't know, don't you disciples who went to Linjiu City last time know?"
"She is such a grown-up, but she doesn't have the ability to distinguish right from wrong. Not only did she get fooled by a letter, but she also dragged Yun Huizhou into this in front of so many people and caused trouble for us."
"It's fine if we can't find Zhang Ning, but when we do, we'll come to your Maple Leaf Valley to ask for an explanation!"
Not only did Lian Li refuse to take the blame they threw at him, he also accused them of throwing dirty water on Yun Huizhou.
The other side had never seen such a scene before. Even the problematic disciple who launched the sneak attack was a little confused by Lian Li's words.
He instinctively wanted to say something to refute Lian Li, but he couldn't think of what to say for a moment.
Seeing the other people in Maple Leaf Valley being criticized by Lian Li, they really began to reflect on whether they were too arbitrary and whether Zhang Ning was too "naive". The disciple who launched the sneak attack showed a rare look of anxiety in his eyes.
This made him say a few words in a hurry: "We don't know, but the only thing we know now is that before Senior Sister left, she said she would go to Yunhuizhou. This is the only clue. Do you want us to give up?"
As soon as he said "we don't know", Lian Li knew it was safe.
At this time, because this group of martial artists were arguing here, the ordinary people left quickly after eating, and most of those who stayed here were people from the martial arts world.
His words were tantamount to an admission. They had no evidence, only what Zhang Ning said before he left.
It is also very easy for them to refute the truthfulness of Zhang Ning's words.
Anyway, no matter what conspiracy was behind Zhang Ning's disappearance, at least Yun Huizhou couldn't be blamed.
However, seeing that this disciple just wanted to link Zhang Ning's disappearance to Yun Huizhou, Lian Li stared at him for a while, and then began to point the finger at him.
"Since you care so much about Zhang Ning, then tell me why you attacked me when I was completely defenseless while all of you were holding back your anger?"
"Don't think that I resolved it easily and that the matter is over. When you attacked me, you were aiming to kill me, right?"
"When you thought Yun Huizhou might be the only clue to Zhang Ning, you suddenly attacked and tried to kill his only fellow apprentice. What was your intention?"
"Could it be that you don't care about Zhang Ning's whereabouts and safety as much as you appear to care now?"
"Don't you know what the consequences will be if you take action? Did you do this on purpose because you saw that we didn't take any action, just to intensify the conflict between us and make us fight?"
"From the beginning, our attitude towards you has not been friendly. If your action causes us to fight, Yun Huizhou will definitely not let any of you go."
"And if you all die at our hands here, to put it in a bigger picture, you're exacerbating the conflict between Drunken Dream Island and Maple Leaf Valley!"
"Just now Yun Huizhou reminded you to go back and find out who is targeting your Maple Leaf Valley, and your actions put all the Maple Leaf Valley disciples here in danger. In my opinion, the most suspicious person is probably you!"
Although Lian Li's words seemed to be an attempt to put the blame on the other party, they were not without basis.
If Lian Li was still the Lian Li of a year ago and was attacked at such a close distance, and Yun Huizhou was not around, he would definitely be successfully attacked and seriously injured.
If Yun Huizhou was by his side, if such a killing move was directed at Lian Li, Yun Huizhou would definitely take action and would definitely not hold back given the huge gap between Yun Huizhou and the opponent.
