After Being Possessed By A Witch, I Became An Outlaw

Chapter 363 I Can’T Clean Myself Up Anymore

When rivals meet, jealousy is inevitable.

Although Jin Ling'er knew that Zhang Chi's current situation was not Tang Ruoling's fault, if Tang Ruoling hadn't appeared in that projection, Zhang Chi wouldn't have fought so desperately.

As for collaborating with demons and slaughtering the various forces that came to participate in the Tianyin Festival, Jin Ling'er completely refused to believe it.

Leaving aside whether Zhang Chi was truly collaborating with demons, if he was, there must be a purpose behind it, right?

So what is his purpose?

To go on a killing spree, tricking the forces of Western State into coming to the Tianyin Festival and then killing them all together?

The Demon Race is not openly launching a counterattack on the human realm, so how could they do something so exaggerated?

After all, although the various forces of Western State suffered a little from this, it wasn't much.

The most important thing was that they were being humiliated.

What does this mean for the Demon Race?

So from the very beginning, she didn't believe that Zhang Chi was the one who killed those people.

Unless someone can present irrefutable evidence to her, she won't believe a single word.

However, although she trusts Zhang Chi, she can't help him solve the problem.

Just as no one can prove Zhang Chi's guilt, no one can prove his innocence either.

And Zhang Chi has also disappeared.

However, Jin Ling'er can faintly sense Zhang Chi's state, so she isn't very worried about his safety.

So, she still has the mood to fight with her rival.

Jin Ling'er carefully examined Tang Ruoling and saw that this woman's appearance was indeed good, belonging to the gentle and beautiful type, different from her own style.

She had a cold and heroic beauty, giving people the feeling that she could take out a knife and attack at any moment, while Tang Ruoling appeared very gentle, lacking any killing power, but exuding a gentle and watery charm.

She was indeed a seductive woman.

Tang Ruoling also sensed the undisguised hostility from Jin Ling'er and quickly understood that this newcomer was trying to show off in front of her senior.

Can she endure it?

Tang Ruoling appeared weak, but she couldn't be bullied. Her appearance of weakness was just a form of protection.

However, Tang Ruoling also understood that her own strength was weak, and her background was not high. It would be difficult for her to compete with these favored women of heaven.

But no matter how proud these favored women of heaven were, it couldn't change one fact.

That is, she arrived first!

"Who are you?"

"I am the Saintess Jin Ling'er of the White Tiger Sect, and also Zhang Chi's future partner."

"Oh?"

Tang Ruoling smiled faintly and said, "In that case, you should be considered my younger sister, after all, I arrived first.

Of course, if you think in terms of age, I can also call you sister."

Jin Ling'er: "......"

As the spirit of the Divine Gold White Tiger Cauldron, her combat ability was top-notch, but unfortunately, palace intrigue was not considered a form of combat. So she lacked experience in dealing with rivals verbally. For a moment, she didn't know how to respond.

She felt that no matter whether she chose to be an older sister or a younger sister, she wouldn't gain any advantage.

Seeing that she couldn't outwit Tang Ruoling with words, Jin Ling'er decided to temporarily avoid the battle. She would find someone to learn from and then come back to compete with Tang Ruoling.

"Now there's no need to discuss this topic. I wanted to ask you, what do you think about what happened to Zhang Chi?"

"I saw it with my own eyes. At that time, Chen Runyu and I escaped, but we could still see from a distance that Long Yi and Zhang Chi were fighting. Zhang Chi indeed possessed extraordinary power, but he didn't actively harm anyone.

On the other hand, Long Yi's spells were all directed at others. The destructive thunder and fire left no escape."

Considering that Jin Ling'er had previously defended the Sword Sect, Tang Ruoling did not hide what she had seen and heard at the time.

In order to clear Zhang Chi's name, there had to be someone with sufficient status and position, and Jin Ling'er clearly met this requirement.

Of course, she didn't mention anything about the Dragon Ball. If Jin Ling'er really wanted to help Zhang Chi, these words would be enough.

"Did Long Yi really kill Zhang Chi?"

Jin Ling'er was particularly concerned about this point.

Tang Ruoling shook her head and said, "We didn't dare to stay for long, so we didn't see the specific details of the battle."

"Hmph, he fought desperately for you, but you just ran away."

Jin Ling'er mocked without reservation. Tang Ruoling remained calm and said, "It was precisely because I knew he was fighting desperately that I tried so hard to escape. Otherwise, Zhang Chi's efforts would have been meaningless."

"Hmph."

It was true that Jin Ling'er understood this reasoning, but she also thought about how Zhang Chi had left her alone to fight.

"Now that you know the truth, are you willing to testify for Zhang Chi?"

"I am his pre-marriage partner, of course I am willing."

Tang Ruoling emphasized her identity, causing Jin Ling'er to feel a sourness in her teeth.

But when it came down to it, Tang Ruoling was the one who arrived first. Jin Ling'er didn't want to argue with her anymore and simply arranged, "Next, I will do my best to prove Zhang Chi's innocence. When the time comes, just cooperate with me."

Being the first doesn't matter. Besides burdening Zhang Chi, it was only about looking a little better.

Jin Ling'er thought to herself that as long as she performed well, Zhang Chi would eventually understand that she was the most trustworthy partner.

She had also planned that once everything here was settled, she would go and find Zhang Chi.

Coincidentally, in a harbor in Western State, Zhang Chi and Chen Runyu were also discussing the same topic.

After they met, Chen Runyu immediately talked about Zhang Chi being framed, eager to clear his name.

"I don't need to prove my innocence anymore. It's impossible to explain being associated with the Demon Race."

Zhang Chi was very clear that this situation was already very unfavorable for him. Now that he no longer had Gu Youyou to rely on, it meant that he had no way to retaliate against the powerful.

Zhang Chi could confidently deceive others, not because of his ability to deceive, but because he knew that if his lies were exposed, Gu Youyou would always have his back.

If he could win, he would fight; if he couldn't win, he would run.

Without Gu Youyou, Zhang Chi was just a small fry at the Foundation Building stage. How could he dare to risk himself for the sake of his so-called innocence?

"Senior brother, how can you not explain clearly your innocence?"

Chen Runyu, this foolish girl, still didn't believe that Zhang Chi was associated with the Demon Race.

He had always been her most trusted senior brother, and she didn't believe anything others said.

Not to mention, although he regarded Chen Runyu as his brainless fan, it felt really good to see someone blindly believe in him.

Unfortunately, some lies would eventually be exposed.

The Duke of Zhou feared rumors, and Wang Mang honored the virtuous and respected the humble. If he hadn't experienced this, he would have continued to deceive, deceiving for a lifetime, and he would have been a good person for a lifetime.

But since he couldn't hide it anymore, he might as well be himself.

He was tired of wearing this disguise.

"If I were to say that I am indeed associated with the Demon Race, what would you think?" (End of this chapter)
