Chapter 5114
- The elder paused for a moment before he shifted his gaze to Ji Fan, the former Arhat of the Blissful Sect, who was standing behind Duan Ling Tian. He looked at Ji Fan coldly before he continued to say, “Ji Fan is the one who incited Old Ancestor Li An to kill you! He’s only trying to shirk all responsibilities and protect himself by pushing all the blame to the sect and saying it’s the sect’s decision to kill you!” He spoke with feigned sincerity, clearly trying to win Duan Ling Tian’s trust.
- Before the elder could continue speaking, Ji Fan who had just put his Floating Image Pearl away cried out furiously, “Rubbish! Elder Yuan, stop talking nonsense! I admit I attended the meeting pertaining to killing Master Duan. I admit I even voted for Master Duan to be killed. However, don’t think you can shift all the blame to me! I refuse to shoulder the blame for all of you.” His expression was cold when he spoke.
- Apart from Liu Xuan Kong, the other high-ranking officials spoke up one after another, turning against Ji Fan now that they were faced with their impending deaths. All of them shifted the blame to him, in hopes of turning him into a scapegoat.
