"Fang Shuwen, what are you doing?"
Seeing the only 'human witness' fall into Fang Shuwen's hands, Sword Master Geng immediately bellowed.
Fang Shuwen glanced up at him, then paid him no further mind, simply turning to Tang Lie.
"Brother Tang, you can now tell them what happened that night."
Sword Master Geng's face darkened. 'I am one of the three great Sword Masters of the Sword God Palace, and this Fang Shuwen just completely ignored me?'
Tang Lie immediately nodded and announced to the crowd,
"Everyone, I am Tang Lie of the Huiwu Sect—the same Tang Lie who was supposedly killed by Hero Fang."
"The truth is, on that day, I went to the village..."
Tang Lie had clearly been preparing for this day for a long time.
As he recounted his story with practiced ease, the expressions of everyone present changed dramatically.
The village massacre was a fabrication; the framing was real.
