Chapter 2934: You're simply hopeless

I originally thought Tou Niang came because she was worried about me, but I didn't expect she came to accuse... no, to frame me.

Bai Yu stared dumbfounded at Tou Niang, but she completely ignored him, never giving him a proper look from start to finish.

The sudden slander left everyone present with strange looks; today's drama truly has been full of twists and turns.

Earlier Hui Yu said the person was killed by Tou Niang, but Bai Yu denied it on the spot.

Now Tou Niang has come and claims Bai Yu killed the person—utterly absurd.

As for why Tou Niang is doing this, needless to say, it's definitely because of Yun Yu.

This guy racked his brains all night but still couldn't come up with a good plan.

Joking aside, with his ability, secretly disposing of a clan elder's corpse is really too difficult.

Moreover, even if it were possible, he's timid, afraid of being investigated afterward—then everything would be ruined.

Earlier, when Tou Niang went to find him, Yun Yu was angry inside, so he vented.

But after calming down, he realized the solution must come from the one who caused the problem, and his gaze unconsciously fell on Tou Niang again.

After all, the person wasn't killed by that stupid woman, so she must bear responsibility for this.

The best plan is to shift the blame back onto Bai Yu, have Tou Niang publicly slander him, and then naturally it won't involve me.

As for whether Tou Niang will agree, Yun Yu naturally has ways.

After a round of sweet talk, he directly coaxed Tou Niang into a dazed state, her head buzzing.

This is practically outright killing kin for justice.

At this moment, the crowd still hadn't reacted; Bai Yu hadn't spoken, but Hui Yu couldn't sit still, rose up and began to curse.

"You bastard, what nonsense are you spouting?"

"Hui Yu, don't curse my wife."

Just as his words fell, Bai Yu turned his head dissatisfied and spoke; upon this, Hui Yu was dumbfounded.

No, this bastard is slandering you right now, yet you're still speaking up for her?

I thought that was already absurd enough, but I didn't expect that in the next second Bai Yu gave Tou Niang a deep look, then turned his head and directly said to the Third Elder on the main seat.

"Third Elder, not bad, I killed the person."

Why Tou Niang would slander herself, Bai Yu hasn't figured it out yet, but he still wants to protect her; even though the crime is great, he bears it without hesitation.

Watching the performance of this couple, the Third Elder on the main seat gave no response, his face calm, unknown what he was thinking.

On the contrary, Hui Yu couldn't sit still and immediately began to curse.

"No, you're sick, the person wasn't killed by you, what guilt are you admitting to? This bastard obviously has a problem, why are you protecting her?"

Hui Yu was anxious, but that wasn't out of concern for Bai Yu; this idiot had already made him completely disheartened.

What Hui Yu truly worries about is this idiot's stupid maneuver, lest it implicate him.

After all, who knows if, in a fit of heat, he might also spill the secrets of the Human Race, in which case we'd all die.

Thus Hui Yu is still doing his utmost to protect Bai Yu.

Too bad, they couldn't care less; facing Hui Yu's words, Bai Yu merely spoke in a low voice.

"No, the person was killed by me."

"You... you're simply hopeless."

Bai Yu disregards his own safety to protect Tou Niang; this step Yun Yu probably anticipated, after all this guy is a love‑brain.

Only then did the Third Elder on the main seat finally speak.

His gaze swept over Hui Yu and Tou Niang, then fell on Bai Yu, and finally settled on Tou Niang.

Feeling the Third Elder's stare locked on her, Tou Niang didn't know why, her whole body tensed uncontrollably, as if she'd been seen through inside and out.

Gritting her teeth and holding on, just as she felt she couldn't endure any longer, the Third Elder suddenly spoke.

"Originally I had no decision, but since you joined the sect, I've been able to confirm that the person wasn't killed by Bai Yu, right?"

"This..."

Never expecting the Third Elder to say such a thing, Tou Niang was momentarily speechless.

She lowered her head, completely unsure how to answer, and could only remain silent.

The Third Elder didn't care about that, turned his head to Bai Yu and said, though a playful smile appeared on his face.

"I wouldn't have guessed, but you're still a hopeless romantic."

However, Bai Yu couldn't care less; he only wants to save his wife, so he immediately spoke.

"Third Elder, the person really was killed by me, it has nothing to do with Tou Niang."

"Damn..."

Seeing this idiot still desperately trying to grab the pot, Hui Yu not far away already felt murderous intent—this dog of a thing is truly stupid.

Back when among the Human Race, after being swindled by Xu Jie, he already sensed something was wrong.

"Damn, what evidence is lacking? This idiot actually believed he had surrendered and promptly spilled everything."

Pressed, he had no choice but to surrender as well.

Back then Hui Yu thought this guy's brain wasn't quite right, only he didn't expect damn he's a love‑brain—are you messing with your mentality?

Right now, what should be a simple matter, you push your wife out front to temporarily take the blame, then later figure out how to save the person.

It's that simple; moreover, this bastard obviously has a problem and wants to harm you.

Just like that, damn he still wants to save people—where do you even reason?

Fortunately, the Third Elder is a decent sort who has already seen through everything, so facing Bai Yu's words he didn't believe them, merely smiling.

"Whether it's true or not, the facts will come out; since you say you killed the person, then you and your wife shall stay together in prison for now, and we'll decide after the investigation clears up."

"Third Elder..."

Hearing that, Bai Yu jerked his head up, opened his mouth, wanting to say more, but the other side gave him no chance.

After his words fell, he gave a glance to two of the Elders present; the two immediately stepped forward and seized Bai Yu and his wife.

With the Third Elder present, Bai Yu naturally dared not resist; as for Tou Niang, she had already been frightened senseless by then.

She had come here following her elder brother's words, but she never imagined the outcome would turn out like this!

Locked up in the big prison, could she possibly get out?

With Tou Niang's limited experience, in her mind the Feather God Tribe's prison inspired only fear.

What she had heard most was how miserable it was after being thrown into the big prison, and the usual outcome was being tortured to death, with hardly any cases of anyone surviving and coming out.

So she was frightened, and her first reaction was, damn it, to turn her head and look at Bai Yu for help.

"Husband, save me."

Upon hearing that, Bai Yu felt heartbroken, but the Third Elder had already closed his eyes and remained silent, paying no heed to Bai Yu's shouts whatsoever.

Seeing that this was useless, Bai Yu could only turn his head to look at Hui Yu, his eyes full of pleading.

"Hui Yu……"
