Chapter 881: Way of Escape Back Then
Jiang Yucheng’s expression finally cracked as he was so shocked that he blurted out, “Why would that thing be with you?!”
Could the person who secretly barged into the zither room to steal the phoenix-tailed zither be Weichi Song?! That person hid their aura extrely well, and I never thought that it could be related to Weichi Song!
“Didn’t I already say just now that soone gave a big present yesterday?!” Weichi Song stroked his beard and presented the phoenix-tailed zither to the crowd. “Everyone, take a look and see if this is the Princess’s zither from back then.”
The crowd exchanged glances and fell silent.
“Eldest Young Master Jiang, you should be the most familiar with this. Why don’t you check it? If not, soone might say that I produced a fake item to start rumors,” said Weichi Song as he pushed the zither to the front.
Jiang Yucheng was standing ten steps away from it. With his eye power, he could already confirm that this was the zither lost from the zither room when he saw it the first ti!
However, he really couldn’t understand how this item landed in Weichi Song’s hands!?He said soone gave it to him yesterday… Who is that person?
“Let take a look.” A person walked out amidst the eerie silence—it was Yuwen Wei.
He smiled and walked over. “Back then, the Princess liked this zither very much and specifically told to prepare many accessories for it. Hence, I’m rather familiar with it. Everyone will trust if I’m the one who recognizes it, right?”
Weichi Song passed the item over. “Please…”
Even though Yuwen Wei’s status wasn’t as good as Jiang Yucheng, his family history ran far. Thus, his status was also very distinguished.
The words he said had quite a lot of value.
Yuwen Wei ticulously took the phoenix-tailed zither and examined it carefully. Then, his expression gradually beca solemn.
After a mont, he nodded. “This is the Princess’s item, and… There is a Trap Dragon Formation on the inside of this zither!”
“Let take a look too!” Jian Shuye couldn’t hold it back any longer as he went forward and focused on it.
There seed to be a faint light shimring on the phoenix-tailed zither. Flipping it over, one could see that there indeed was a palm-sized Xuan formation shining brightly underneath!
Jiang Yucheng was in a ss!?Back then, I only cared about dealing with Shangguan Yue. Hence, I didn’t look at the phoenix-tailed zither at all. And even though I have always wiped the fragrance on the phoenix-tailed zither in these two years, I have never discovered any of this!
Thinking of this, he imdiately said, “This Xuan formation didn’t exist before! I’ve never seen such a Xuan formation on it before! It’s just a third-grade Xuan formation. Any Xuan Master could carve it on the zither. Cabinet Master Weichi, you don’t have to resort to such ans to lie to everyone even if you doubt the Princess’s death, right?”
Upon hearing this, Weichi Song sneered. “Of course, you’ve never seen this before. This was because there was originally a seal on this Xuan formation! This Xuan formation was only revealed after I solved the seal!”
“W-what seal?” Jiang Yucheng was stunned.?I had no idea about any of this!
“This is a Trap Dragon Formation, and the aura… It was made by the Princess!” Jian Shuye nodded in confirmation. “As this phoenix-tailed zither’s material is extrely precious and unique, normal people can’t even leave any marks on it. Even though this Xuan formation is only a third-grade one, only a top Xuan Master can do this! If I didn’t see wrongly… The phoenix-tailed zither should’ve used her Tianjing Yuan ridian’s force to seal the Xuan formation and hide its aura.”
Weichi Song stroked his beard. “That’s right. I only saw this Trap Dragon Formation after I broke the seal.”
At that ti, Shangguan Yue’s abilities had already reached that of an eighth-grade Xuan Master. If she intentionally wanted to hide sothing, it definitely wouldn’t be difficult.
Jiang Yucheng’s heart kept sinking, and his entire body turned cold.?Careless—I was really careless! I forgot that I wasn’t Shangguan Yue’s match at all, causing not to even see her using such a thod! Now, it has beco concrete evidence!
Afterward, a few other people stepped forward to take a look, and all nodded to confirm that this was indeed left behind by the Princess back then.
As she had a Tianjing Yuan ridian, her aura was very easily recognized. Any of the extraordinary characters in the Tianling Dynasty just had to take a look at it to confirm.
“Hm, what is this?” Jian Shuye was talking when he suddenly realized there was sothing else below the Xuan formation. He moved in closer, and his expression changed slightly. “It’s a blood word!”
Everyone was shocked when he said this.?If it weren’t because sothing happened, why would this phoenix-tailed zither have a blood word hidden on it? Besides, it was even hidden with all these complicated layers!
Jiang Yucheng’s heart harshly skipped a beat and almost jumped out of his chest! All the blood in his body seed to freeze at this mont.?It can’t be… It can’t be! Everything happened very suddenly back then. Shangguan Yue wouldn’t even have the ti and energy to do such a thing!
Jiang Yucheng kept convincing himself, but there was a voice in the depths of his heart that kept ringing.?Why not? She was smart and cunning. Why would she not be able to do such small tricks?
“The Princess also left this blood word behind!” Jian Shuye’s expression completely turned cold.
Yuwen Wei and the rest who were standing nearer also had a change in expression. They naturally could recognize it.
“What’s the blood word written on top?” soone asked anxiously.
Weichi Song laughed, but there was no smiling intent in his eyes. “Jiang Yucheng, you should know what’s written on it, right?”
Jiang Yucheng’s temple throbbed! “I don’t—”
“Jiang!” Jian Shuye suddenly raised the phoenix-tailed zither and sharply hollered, “The word ‘Jiang’ is written on it!”
“Jiang Yucheng, isn’t this your ‘Jiang?!'”
