Chapter 252: Words Came True

Duan Heng’s question was quite skillful. If one was not careful, one would be led into a ditch.
Xue Hui said meaningfully, “How do I know why they were killed? Do demons need a reason to kill?!”
Duan Heng stared into her eyes and asked word by word, “Did you see them being killed by the demons with your own eyes?”
“That’s right.”
“Then can you tell me how Huai Shan and Miu Wei died?”!!
“How else could they have died? They were all killed by the demons?”
Duan Heng asked, “The demons must have used a method to kill them, right? For example, were they strangled to death, drowned, or burned to death… May I ask how Huai Shan and Miu Wei died?”
Xue Hui smiled, but she was cursing inwardly.
Damn that Xue Ling! He asked her to help commit perjury, but he didn’t even explain how those two guys died!
How could she lie now?!
She knew that the new high priest of the Dark Moon Temple had divine eyes and could see what was happening thousands of miles away. It was very likely that he had seen Huai Shan and Miu Wei being killed, so he had Duan Heng deliberately try to trick her.
If what she said didn’t match the truth, it would mean she was lying.
At that time, not only would the Rock Wolf Tribe be in trouble, but she would also be implicated.
Xue Hui used the motion of smoothing her hair to block Duan Heng’s view while quickly glancing at Shuang Yun.
She saw Shuang Yun touch his neck and chest.
Duan Heng pressed, “Please answer my question.”
Xue Hui smoothed her hair behind her ears, revealing her beautiful face. “One had his head cut off, and the other had his chest pierced. They died worse than the others. I had nightmares for days after I saw it. The demons are so cruel.”
Duan Heng continued to stare at her. “Are you sure this is how they died?”
“Isn’t that how they died?” Xue Hui looked surprised. “I saw Huai Shan’s head roll to the ground. Could it be that he’s still alive?”
Duan Heng did not answer.
He wanted to trick Xue Hui. Unfortunately, she didn’t fall for it.
Helpless, Duan Heng could only relent. “Yeah, you’re right. For the time being, it seems that Huai Shan’s and Miu Wei’s deaths have nothing to do with the Rock Wolf Tribe.”
Shuang Yun said, “Thank you very much for clearing up the misunderstanding for us. Tonight, our Rock Wolf Tribe will offer you the most delicious prey as a gift.”
However, Duan Heng said, “There’s no need. We’re in a hurry to tell the high priest the results of the investigation.”
Shuang Yun tried to persuade him to stay, but Duan Heng was unmoved.
That afternoon, Duan Heng rushed back to the Dark Moon Temple with his guards.
After sending Duan Heng and the others off, Shuang Yun heaved a sigh of relief.
He returned home and told his family about Duan Heng’s departure.
Bai Di said, “Although we hid it from Duan Heng, the high priest of the Dark Moon Temple definitely won’t believe the story we made up. He might send someone else to the rock mountain. This isn’t over.”
Huanhuan quickly asked, “What should we do now?”
An idea came to Shuang Yun’s mind. He suddenly said, “Why don’t we pretend to be demons and kill Duan Heng? Even if the high priest still suspects us, he won’t attack us for a while. After all, the demons are much more dangerous than us. They’ll definitely have to think of a way to deal with those demons first.”
As for what the demons thought after being framed, no one cared anymore.
In any case, a lot of crimes were already pinned on the demons’ head. A few more wouldn’t make much difference.
Xue Ling smiled. “That’s a good idea.”
Bai Di nodded in agreement. “It can work.”
Huanhuan asked, “Who do you plan to send to pretend to be demons and launch a sneak attack?”
Bai Di, Shuang Yun, and Xue Ling looked at Sang Ye in unison.
Sang Ye: “…”
‘I got called out even though I was silent!’
Xue Ling patted his shoulder and said with a smile, “You have the demons’ bloodline in you, so it’s best for you to pretend to be one. I guarantee that no one will notice.”
Sang Ye said coldly, “I can’t handle so many people alone.”
Shuang Yun immediately pushed Xue Ling out. “Get the birdman to help support you. He’s the strongest among the four of us. With him around, you’ll definitely be able to escape unscathed.”
Bai Di quickly agreed. “Okay, let Xue Ling assist Sang Ye.”
It was Xue Ling’s turn to be speechless.
He was gloating just now, but in the blink of an eye, it was his turn to be unlucky.
In order to catch up to Duan Heng and the others as soon as possible, Sang Ye and Xue Ling set off that night.
Huanhuan’s stomach was already quite big. When she slept, she could only sleep on her side. Lying on her back was very uncomfortable.
She tossed and turned all night.
Bai Di, who was sleeping beside her, woke up. He pulled Huanhuan into his arms and asked in a low voice, “What’s wrong? Can’t sleep?”
Huanhuan whispered, “I’m worried about Sang Ye and Xue Ling. Will they get into an accident?”
Bai Di patted her back and comforted her gently. “No, Xue Ling is very strong. Not many beasts can defeat him.”
“What if they encounter a real demon?”
“Their luck won’t be that bad.”
…
It was not until dark the next day that Sang Ye and Xue Ling returned.
Hearing them open the door, Huanhuan and Bai Di woke up immediately.
Bai Di helped Huanhuan sit up and get dressed. Then, he carried her downstairs.
A torch was lit in the living room. With the help of the light, Huanhuan saw that Sang Ye and Xue Ling were unharmed. She could finally heave a sigh of relief.
Shuang Yun had woken up too. The family was gathered in the living room.
Bai Di asked, “How did it go?”
Sang Ye’s answer was concise. “It’s settled.”
They all looked at him for a long time, but he didn’t speak again.
Shuang Yun looked confused. “And?”
Xue Ling chuckled. “Let me do the talking. Duan Heng and his group were dealt with, but not by us. They were dealt with by the demons.”
Huanhuan was very surprised. “Huh?”
Xue Ling explained what had happened.
He and Sang Ye rushed all night and finally caught up to Duan Heng and the others.
They were prepared to find an opportunity to ambush Duan Heng and the others. However, before the two of them could attack, they saw Duan Heng and the others encounter the demon army that was passing by from another direction.
Both sides were stunned when they met.
Then, both sides started fighting without a word.
The demon race’s army was large and quickly killed Duan Heng.
One of the guards risked his life and escaped.
The others were all killed by the demons.
Sang Ye and Xue Ling hid in the dark to watch the battle. They never showed their faces.
After the demon army left, the two of them left quietly.
Huanhuan did not expect her words to come true.
They had really encountered the demons.
Fortunately, Sang Ye and Xue Ling were safe and sound.
