Chapter 2838
Meng He directed all his anger toward Zhu Zhu at that moment, convinced that she had not poisoned Kai. If she had, he reasoned, Kai would not be acting the way he was today!
Zhu Zhu collapsed to the ground, staring at Meng He in disbelief. Just yesterday, he had been professing his love for her!
After forcefully pushing Zhu Zhu away, Meng He turned his back on her, showing no remnants of the affection he once claimed to have!
Seeing the coldness in Meng He’s demeanor, Zhu Zhu couldn’t hold back her tears, her eyes flashing with indignation!
Determined, she stood up and charged toward Meng He, clinging desperately to his legs!
“You can’t leave! Tell me clearly, are you really going to abandon me after using me?”
“You used poison against my master, and now you want to get rid of me?”
“If it weren’t for my help, would you have triumphed in the third match?”
“How could you be so heartless?”
Zhu Zhu shouted frantically as she held onto Meng He!
Meng He’s face went pale with panic as he retorted, “What are you saying? When did I ever ask you to poison me? Don’t just make things up!”
In a fit of anger, Meng He raised his hand to strike Zhu Zhu, disregarding the intimate bond they once shared!
It is important to note that cheating at the Pill Master’s Meeting in Jialing County carries severe consequences!
Meng He considered silencing Zhu Zhu permanently, but he couldn’t afford for her to speak out!
Just as he was about to act, Suo Xingyue intervened, stepping in front of Meng He!
“Meng He, how dare you attempt to kill in front of so many witnesses? You better explain yourself, or you won’t be leaving here!”
Suo Xingyue glared at Meng He with fierce determination.
“What did I do? I didn’t do anything; it’s all your disciple’s wild claims!”
“She’s the one who seduced me! What, is your Danyang Sect going to force me to marry her?”
Meng He defiantly continued to deny any wrongdoing!
Watching Meng He, Zhu Zhu felt her heart shatter, crying out, “Master, I’m so sorry.”
“You were out of your mind and made poor decisions because the poison affected your judgment!”
“He promised me a double date if I did this for him…”
Zhu Zhu recounted the entire story!
The crowd, upon hearing this, looked at Meng He with disdain, pointing fingers in his direction!
It was one thing to lose at the Pill Master’s Guild; after all, strength levels vary. But to resort to such underhanded tactics to win a competition? That was truly disgraceful!
“Meng He, you dare to cheat at the Pill Master meeting? You’re despicable!”
Hearing this, an elderly man leaped forward, confronting Meng He!
Meng He glanced at the furious old man and then at Suo Xingyue and the others, cold sweat trickling down his forehead!
“I didn’t do it; it was all a setup! I never asked her to do anything; I’ve been wrongfully accused!”
Meng He shook his head vigorously, desperate to defend himself!
“Whether you’re innocent or not, a simple search will reveal the truth. You must still have that poison on you!”
Kai spoke up at that crucial moment!
“Yes, search him!” the Third Elder agreed.
Suo Xingyue moved forward, preparing to search Meng He, but he suddenly narrowed his eyes, unleashing a white mist that enveloped him, allowing him to vanish into thin air!
“Humph, you think you can escape?”
The old man snorted, waving his sleeve, causing Meng He, who had just disappeared, to emit a horrifying scream before his body erupted in a cloud of blood!
The onlookers understood the rules of Jialing County: breaking them would lead to dire consequences!
Zhu Zhu watched Meng He’s tragic end, her expression unreadable, before kneeling in front of Suo Xingyue and pleading, “Master, I know I was wrong. I beg for your forgiveness…”
