Can't a girl be a traitor like Cao Cao?

So the argument that night must have actually happened, unless the two of them had agreed beforehand to lie together.

However, objectively speaking, I think it makes no sense that both of them lied about this matter.

So here's the question: if an argument did happen on the first floor, why was Mrs. Di completely unaware of it?

Let's leave aside what Di Shanshan said for now and just assume she was asleep too.

The only place where a quarrel might have occurred was the residence of Master Di and his wife.

Or, to take it a step further, the lady is asleep.

But if Master Di had an argument with someone else, how could you, his wife who shares his bed, know nothing about it? That doesn't make sense, does it?

More importantly, the people arguing are very likely the murderers who killed Master Di.

Why doesn't the lady say anything about this?

"Madam, is there...something you must be hiding?"

After Chi Junlin finished speaking, he looked at Hui Zhilan with sharp eyes.

The others also cast questioning glances at Hui Zhilan.

No one suspects that Hui Zhilan killed her husband yet, but her words do contradict reality.

Hui Zhilan clenched her fists nervously, looking somewhat at a loss, and then glanced at Di Shanshan.

Di Shanshan placed her hand on Hui Zhilan's arm, as if to encourage her.

So Hui Zhilan sighed and said, "Well, it is true that my husband and I had an argument last night. But... I feel there's no point in talking about it now, so I'll just keep quiet about it."

"Hmm, what are the lady and Master Di arguing about? If it's convenient, please tell us. This will also help us catch the real culprit who killed the master."

Hui Zhilan hesitated for a moment upon hearing this, but still forced a smile and said, "It's just some marital discord. Let's not talk about it."

"..."

A brief silence fell over the crowd, and some people exchanged glances in the air.

Chi Junlin suddenly smiled and said softly to Hui Zhilan, "It's alright if you don't say anything. But please don't hide anything from me anymore, Madam."

Upon hearing this, she hesitated to meet Chi Junlin's gaze, and nodded.

Chi Junlin then added, "Let's set aside the cause of Lord Di's death for now. After all, he's gone, and it seems pointless to investigate these things now."

What interests me more is who the woman who came to my room last night was.

The group nodded in agreement. After all, according to Chi Junlin, this woman not only coveted Chi Junlin's powerful internal strength, but was also a member of the Demonic Sect.

Leaving her at home unattended would be a huge threat to everyone.

Then Tong Yan asked Chi Junlin, "Can you find out who that demonic sect woman is now?"

Chi Junlin nodded and said, "More or less, I feel like I have a direction."

After saying that, she said to the women present, "I will now assume that none of you are lying. The person who came to my room last night is now out in the open."

Then she said to Feng Lingqiu, "Elder Feng, you said that after the argument last night, you heard footsteps in the corridor, right?"

Feng Lingqiu nodded.

Chi Junlin then looked at Yan Sijun and said, "You said you felt someone standing at your bedside last night, right?"

Yan Sijun hesitated before nodding.

Then Chi Junlin continued, "So can I deduce that this woman went to my and Wei Ziqing's room, and Master and Yan Sijun's room, but not Elder Feng's and Wenren Tianxia's room?"

Several people nodded.

Chi Junlin then asked, "What does her behavior resemble?"

"like what?"

Wenren Tianxia immediately showed a puzzled expression.

"Doesn't it look like they're looking for something?"

The Red Emperor patiently and skillfully guided him.

"What are you looking for?"

Wenren Tianxia was even more confused.

Chi Junlin then pointed to himself, "She's looking for me."

Upon hearing this, the group was somewhat puzzled as to why Chi Junlin had brought it up.

After all, everyone knows that last night this woman was looking for Chi Junlin in order to extract her inner strength through dual cultivation.

Why would Chi Junlin reveal something that everyone already knows?

Knowing what the others were thinking, Chi Junlin smiled and said, "You might think that everyone knows about this, so why should I specifically mention it?"

But have you noticed that there are people she doesn't know?

Chi Junlin tapped the table again. "She doesn't know which room I'm in."

Upon hearing Chi Junlin's words, the group immediately realized something.

Chi Junlin continued with a smile, "Last night, Yan Sijun and I switched rooms, and I went to Wei Ziqing's room to practice dual cultivation with her for healing. Many people present actually knew about this, but this woman from the Demonic Sect was the only one who didn't."

So after she went to Master and Yan Sijun's room, she didn't find me, but she saw Yan Sijun sleeping on my bed.

Then she realized that I was in another room.

Of those present, only two were unaware of this matter.

Chi Junlin then looked at Hui Zhilan and Di Shanshan, and continued, "Therefore, the demonic sect woman who came to my room last night could only be one of you two. Moreover, she made ample preparations for this!"

As soon as Chi Junlin finished speaking, the eyes of several women turned to the Di mother and daughter.

The two women immediately tensed up.

Di Shanshan instinctively said, "You...you're making false accusations! When did I go to your room!"

As she spoke, she threw herself into Hui Zhilan's arms and said to the other women, "I know! These people came to harm us! They killed my father and then tried to frame me for it!"

You have no evidence! What makes you say I did it?!

How could I possibly kill my own father!

Hui Zhilan's expression was slightly stiff at this moment.

After hearing Di Shanshan's rebuttal, Chi Junlin smiled and said to her, "Miss Di, I never said that you killed your own father."

Don't be so nervous.

Chapter 166 The Truth About It?

Upon hearing Chi Junlin's words, Di Shanshan's eyes narrowed.

"you……"

Chi Junlin looked at her and said with a smile, "Originally, killing Di Cangshan and entering my room were two things that were not necessarily related. But seeing how nervous you are, I can't help but think of connecting them."

As he spoke, Chi Junlin narrowed his eyes and looked at Di Shanshan with an extremely oppressive gaze, then continued, "Do you think there's such a possibility?"

There was a man who was the head of a sect. He had raised his daughter with great difficulty for more than ten years, only to find that at some point, his daughter had fallen into the demonic path and started to like using dual cultivation techniques to absorb the internal energy of women.

The man had no choice but to raise their daughter in a secluded mountain village with his wife, avoiding contact with outsiders and preventing her from causing trouble outside.

But one day, guests came to the house. What the man didn't expect was that his daughter took a liking to several of the women among them who had profound inner strength, and wanted to absorb all of their inner strength.

So, as night fell, the daughter destroyed the only road leading outside.

This way, the people in the manor would have no way to escape. Then she could take the opportunity to drain all the internal energy from the women inside, one by one.

The man quickly discovered what his daughter had done and was furious. He wanted to kill his daughter, who had become a demon.

But his wife wouldn't allow it, and a fierce argument broke out between the two.

At that moment, the daughter suddenly attacked and killed her father.

Although the wife was extremely shocked, she chose to conceal the cause of the man's death in order to protect her daughter.

Then the daughter prepared to target the guests, intending to start by absorbing the inner strength of the woman with the deepest inner power.

Unexpectedly, her first choice was a mistake; she kicked an incredibly hard iron plate. She was forced to retreat in a panic.

Then, the next day arrived.

So, does this story connect all the clues?

Of course, this is just my guess.

After all, I don't have any concrete evidence to prove that any of these speculations have ever occurred.

What do you think? "

After hearing what Chi Junlin said, Di Shanshan suddenly smiled.

She was about to say something when Hui Zhilan quickly shielded her behind her.

Then, Hui Zhilan said to Chi Junlin with a slightly nervous expression, "You're mistaken! My daughter didn't enter your room! She didn't kill my husband either. It must be... it must be someone else framing her!"

"Oh? Madam means that your daughter never came to my room, and that Master Di's death had nothing to do with her. Moreover, in order to frame your daughter and make us believe that she was the one who did all these things, this person even went so far as to kill Master Di and cut off his head, placing it on the dining table. And even if Madam knew the truth, she wanted to use lies to conceal a great deal of the facts from us. Is that what you mean?"

"This this……"

"Okay, even if that's the case, even if everything has nothing to do with Di Shanshan, I'll assume that's how it is. So who exactly entered my room and secretly cultivated with me?"

My master? Wenren Tianxia and his disciple? Or Wei Ziqing and her daughter?

No matter how you look at it, you two are the most suspicious in this matter.

Since this matter has nothing to do with Di Shanshan, then was it Madam herself who sneaked into my room last night?

Upon hearing this, Hui Zhilan seemed to realize that she could no longer hide it no matter what.

So he gritted his teeth and admitted directly, "Yes, it's me!"

Chi Junlin reached out without hesitation, grabbed Hui Zhilan's hand, and held it to his nose to sniff it.

Hui Zhilan was startled and immediately pulled her hand back, exclaiming, "What are you doing...?"

Chi Junlin squinted at her and said, "Madam is lying again."

"I...I didn't..."

"Your scent is so distinctive. If it were you last night, I couldn't possibly forget it. But that's not the case. So... the answer can only be one person."

As Chi Junlin spoke, his eyes were already fixed on Di Shanshan.

The other women also turned their attention to her.

"Hehehehe..."

Unexpectedly, just as everyone's attention was focused on Di Shanshan, and Hui Zhilan was still defending her, she suddenly chuckled.

All the women looked at her with surprised expressions.

Unexpectedly, she suddenly raised a hand and gently stroked the hair behind her ear.

Then he readily admitted, "Yes, it was me."

Eh?

The group was somewhat surprised, not expecting that Di Shanshan would admit it so easily.

And at this moment, she smiled and said to Chi Junlin, "What you said is absolutely right."

I did indeed devote myself to the holy path a long time ago, and then I was locked up here by that foolish father, guarded day and night, and deprived of any freedom.

He has no idea of ​​the supreme freedom of my Holy Gate!

To cultivate in a dual-path approach, seeking the true path of demonic cultivation! How incredibly joyful!

As she spoke, she licked her lips again, looked at Chi Junlin with a seductive and mischievous gaze, and then laughed, "By the way, Miss Lin Jun, you taste truly wonderful..."

Everyone at the table frowned as they looked at Di Shanshan's appearance.

Chi Junlin looked at her calmly, seemingly unaffected by her words.

Di Shanshan's expression became even more amused, and she looked at Chi Junlin with extreme delight.

It's like finding something extremely interesting and beloved.

Tong Yan couldn't help but ask, "Then... Master Di, could it be that you killed him too?"
