"Lu kid, don't get it wrong!" the Fourth Elder spoke out, "Everyone present is a hero of the Dragon Country, you can't wrongly accuse anyone!"
"Elder, rest assured, I'm not that foolish!" Lu Fan chuckled, then looked at the Hundred-Faced Scholar, "Since you are a Dragon Country martial artist, tell me, which part of the Outer Domain Battlefield do you belong to!"
"I am a martial artist from the Purple Light Stronghold of the Outer Domain Battlefield!" the Hundred-Faced Scholar said seriously, "If you don't believe me, sir, you can investigate personally!"
"Are there any other martial artists from the Purple Light Stronghold here?" Lu Fan looked at the crowd in the hall.
Many martial artists shook their heads. This time, the Dragon Country faced a great disaster, and the martial arts experts from the Outer Domain strongholds were almost wiped out. Those who survived from the Purple Light Stronghold were already considered quite fortunate.
"Could it be that no one survived from the Purple Light Stronghold this time?" Lu Fan's brows furrowed slightly.
"Sir, you may not know, but many strongholds in the Dragon Country have been devastated. As for whether this person is truly from the Purple Light Stronghold, we have no way to verify!" a man spoke out.
"As a martial artist from the Purple Light Stronghold, I fought desperately against the enemy in this battle. Now I am being suspected by you, sir. How can I establish myself in the Dragon Country in the future!" the Hundred-Faced Scholar said.
The Fourth Elder also frowned and said to Lu Fan, "Lu kid, are you absolutely sure?"
"If I wasn't absolutely sure, why would I have come to the hotel!"
Lu Fan narrowed his eyes and looked at the Hundred-Faced Scholar, "If you hand over the Elder Token now, you might receive a lighter punishment. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
"If you insist on this, sir, I have nothing more to say!" the Hundred-Faced Scholar stated directly, "As a Dragon Country martial artist, why would I steal a Dragon Country Elder Token? If I were, the Hundred-Faced Scholar would have already fled the Dragon Country."
"Lord Lu's suspicion is not without reason!" Long Aotian spoke out, "If you are truly a Dragon Country martial artist, then produce evidence!"
"The people of the Purple Light Stronghold were massacred. How can I prove my innocence!" the Hundred-Faced Scholar smiled, "You might have to go to the Purple Light Stronghold headquarters. My records are there!"
"Go to the Outer Domain Battlefield?" Su Dan Xiao Shuo Wang
Lu Fan smiled, "Is that to open the Dragon Country's protective shield for you?"
The Hundred-Faced Scholar smiled, "It seems you still don't believe me, sir. I have nothing more to say!"
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Lu Fan's expression turned cold, and he strode towards the Hundred-Faced Scholar, emanating a sharp gust of wind. He wanted to see how long this Hundred-Faced Scholar could hide.
Feeling the sharp force, the Hundred-Faced Scholar suddenly flew back, a mouthful of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, his face turning extremely pale.
Inside the hotel, the many martial artists of the Dragon Country were shocked. They hadn't expected Lu Fan to act before the truth was ascertained. If the person before them was truly a martial arts expert of the Dragon Country, wouldn't it be disheartening?
The Fourth Elder also trembled slightly. The martial artist before them was spitting blood and was no match for Lu Fan. If he were truly the Hundred-Faced Scholar, he shouldn't be like this.
"Lu kid, you might have made a mistake!" the Ninth Elder spoke out, "He doesn't seem to have that kind of strength!"
"No wonder he's called the Hundred-Faced Scholar, he can even put on such an act!" Lu Fan narrowed his eyes, "No matter how well you act, there will always be a moment when you reveal your flaws!"
As soon as Lu Fan finished speaking, he surged forward again. He was now very sure that the person before him was the Hundred-Faced Scholar, so he would not hold back.
"Elder, save me!"
The Hundred-Faced Scholar shouted, "I have dedicated my life to the Dragon Country. After being suspected, can I be struck down without any discrimination!"
Lu Fan's powerful aura erupted. Seeing that the situation was not right, the elders quickly intervened and stood in front of the Hundred-Faced Scholar.
With a loud bang, several elders were forced back. Lu Fan stood his ground. He hadn't expected the Elder Council to intervene.
"Lu kid, don't be rash. This matter must be investigated thoroughly!" the Fourth Elder said.
The other elders nodded in agreement. From that one exchange, they finally understood that their strength was not on the same level as Lu Fan's.
If Lu Fan hadn't retracted his palm in time, they would have all been shaken and spat blood.
"I can confirm that he is the Hundred-Faced Scholar!" Lu Fan stated directly, "If we let him escape, there will be endless trouble in the future! Elders, please do not hesitate!"
"My lord never makes mistakes when judging matters!" Han Yunhai spoke out, "Do the elders not trust Lord Lu?"
"Lord Lu is the guardian deity of the Dragon Country, of course we trust him!" many martial artists said in unison, "Acting rashly without investigating the matter thoroughly might lead to criticism in the future!"
Facing the discussions, Lu Fan's expression was indifferent, not taking it too seriously.
The Hundred-Faced Scholar curled his lips. As long as he didn't admit it, Lu Fan couldn't do anything to him.
"I believe Lord Lu, he would never be mistaken!" Long Aotian said solemnly, "Elders, don't forget, Lord Lu has a tracking item on him. Moreover, Lord Lu fought so hard in the Outer Domain Battlefield, all for the sake of the nation!"
Everyone suddenly realized. The martial artists in the banquet hall also showed a glimmer of understanding. During the Outer Domain Battlefield, if Lu Fan hadn't arrived in time, they would have all become corpses.
Now that Lu Fan was so certain, this matter was definitely not simple.
"We are willing to believe Lord Lu!"
The martial artists in the banquet hall shouted in unison. They clearly understood everything Lu Fan had done for the Dragon Country. If they didn't stand by Lu Fan now, wouldn't it be disheartening?
"Lu kid, I know everything you've done!" the Fourth Elder stated directly, "But no matter what you do, you must follow the rules. If he is not the Hundred-Faced Scholar, the repercussions afterwards will be immense!"
"It doesn't matter, I am not from headquarters!"
Lu Fan smiled and looked at the Hundred-Faced Scholar, "Do you think you can fool everyone by acting like this?"
"Lord Lu, I am truly not the Hundred-Faced Scholar!" the Hundred-Faced Scholar said solemnly.
Unfortunately, Lu Fan sneered, "Whether you are or not, you will die today. No one can stop me!"
Upon hearing this, everyone trembled slightly, especially the elders of the Dragon Country. They knew very well that what Lu Fan said was true. If he decided to act, no one could stop him, not even all the elders acting together.
"Lu kid, don't be impulsive!" the Ninth Elder reminded him.
"I am not from headquarters, elders, please do not obstruct me!"
Lu Fan's expression was indifferent, "If anyone insists on obstructing me, I will not show any mercy!"
The elders frowned. Lu Fan's killing intent made them feel a chill.
"Elders, given the situation, we can only trust Lord Lu!" Han Bing said.
The others also nodded slightly, only a few elders frowned.
They knew very well that Lu Fan was acting recklessly, and even they could not control him.
