And so, Tong An'an suffered an unrighted wrong. Wang Ke's pleadings did not prove Tong An'an innocent but gave others more reason to suspect Tong An'an.magic

"Damn it, Wang Ke. It's all your fault. All your fault! I'm innocent!" Tong An'an roared indignantly.

But Wang Ke stared back at him and retorted, "Why are you throwing blame around indiscriminately? I tried to prove you innocent for your good, yet you slander me? Damn it, you are such an ungrateful jerk!"

"I don't need your help! I don't need you to prove my innocence!" Tong An'an roared.

"Fine, I won't help you then. I will retell what happened. Parlor Lord Se and Parlor Lord Zi, hear me carefully. Tong An'an is not innocent. He brought us here straight to find Zhu Hongyi. Then he reported it to She Qingqing personally. He betrayed you two from the start! I incited his rebellion! He listens to us now!" Wang Ke said solemnly.

Se Yutian and Zi Bufan turned a chilling look toward Tong An'an. And Tong An'an sucked in a mouthful of cold air.

"Wang Ke, you are full of gibberish! We had nothing to do with each other; I'm innocent. Don't you slander my innocence! I didn't do anything! You are talking nonsense! Quick, prove me innocent!" Tong An'an shouted in shock.

He knew clearly that Se Yutian was almost ready to kill him. If he does not shout his last words, he won't get the chance to.

"Tong An'an, you are too much!" Wang Ke glared at him angrily, "When I helped to prove your innocence, you said you don't need it. Now that I'm proving that you are not innocent, you demand that I prove your innocence. What do you want? My patience is limited! Damn it. It's hard to find a three-legged frog, but a biped human can be found everywhere! I'm just trying to hire a staff. No one is irreplaceable. The world will stop running for no one!"

Tong An'an: "..........!"

"Parlor Lord, please don't listen to his nonsense. He's trying to harm me!" Tong An'an pleaded with Se Yutian in despair.But Se Yutian's eyes no longer showed any forgiveness when looking at him. The Parlor Lord's eyes were terrifyingly chilling.

"Oh yeah, since the two of you are here, where is my Lightning Whips?" Zi Bufan said suddenly.

"Lightning Whips? They are with Wang Ke, Wang Ke!" Tong An'an pointed at Wang Ke immediately. He hoped that he could still contribute something that merited the Parlor Lords' forgiveness.

"Oh?" Zi Bufan looked at Wang Ke.

"Parlor Lord Zi, why are you looking at me? I didn't take your Lightning Whips! You heard Tong An'an's words; which word that comes from his mouth is trustworthy? I helped him out of a good will, yet he was so picky. He says the whips are with me. Does that mean they are really with me? You can't fall for his trick!" Wang Ke said by the side.

"Bullshit! You are the one playing tricks! Wang Ke, I saw it with my own eyes. Chen Tianyuan handed the Lightning Whips to you. At Zhu Cultivation Town, you set a trap with the Lightning Whips to catch me. They are with you!" Tong An'an raged in disagreement.

"Why are you shouting at me?" Wang Ke rebutted with a stare, "I'm not the one who lost Parlor Lord Zi's Lightning Whips. You are the one! Your responsibility doesn't get transferred to someone else just because you are shouting! I didn't take the Lightning Whips from your hands; what's the point of shouting at me?"

"You!" Tong An'an's face froze.

Looking at Zi Bufan, Wang Ke said, "Parlor Lord Zi, I did use your Lightning Whips back in at Zhu Cultivation Town. But Mo Sanshan was there too! He took it after I was done with the whips!"

"Hmm?" Zi Bufan raised her eyebrow. Tong An'an was also shocked.

"You know it. Mo Sanshan, that geezer, sees me as a prick in his eyes. He tried to harm me multiple times. Back then, I set up a trap with the Lightning Whips to capture Tong An'an! But Mo Sanshan also came. He took Tong An'an and his men away! Do you think I can guard the Lightning Whips against him?" Wang Ke asked.Framing Mo Sanshan had nothing going against Wang Ke's conscience since he considered the geezer a despicable sly.

Zi Bufan's face turned solemn. She turned to look at Tong An'an as though she was waiting for him to explain.

"I... I fainted. I don't know anything about that, but I know Wang Ke is an extremely shrewd person. It could be on him. Parlor Lord, search him, and you will know! " Tong An'an said with a bitter look.

And Zi Bufan looked back at Wang Ke. And the latter felt nervous.

"Sure! I'm fine with that. Parlor Lord Zi, come do it yourself! But if you can't find it, can you do me justice?" Wang Ke said casually.

Seeing how cooperative he was, Zi Bufan was frustrated.

"Justice?" Zi Bufan said with narrowed eyes. "That's right. If the Lightning Whips are not on me, please kill Tong An'an immediately!" Wang Ke was straight to the point.

"What?" Tong An'an gasped in shock.

"I am totally disappointed in him. I don't want to keep a person like this! I tried helping him out of goodwill, but he turned his blame on me. It's better to just get rid of him altogether!" Wang Ke said without hesitation.

"And what if she finds them on you?" Tong An'an raged.

"If you find them, then kill me right away! I would be willing to die in Parlor Lord Zi's hands on the spot!" Wang Ke said.
