Oh no! I, the weakling, have become the villain!

Chapter 239 Going Out

"But to be honest, I do know about this now, but I'm too lazy to care about it right now. Just stay here for now."

"I'll come back once I've figured things out. I can leave anytime I want, so don't worry."

Seeing Xu Yao's abilities, Bai Yuezhan naturally had nothing to say about him, given the circumstances.

Since the matter is going to be brought to light anyway, that would be ideal, but that's the problem.

No matter what, there's nothing that can be done about this; that's just how things are right now.

In short, Bai Yuezhan trusted Xu Yao, which is why he chose to wait for Xu Yao here.

Soon, Xu Yao found an opportunity and went out on his own.

Seeing Xu Yao leave, Bai Yuezhan felt relieved enough to keep a low profile in the cell and not let anyone discover that Xu Yao was missing.

After leaving the dungeon, Xu Yao didn't look for anyone else, but instead went to find the Sixth Elder's illegitimate son.

Since it seems that only the Sixth Elder's illegitimate son can ask questions now, Xu Yao had actually considered this in his heart.

Now that we know the truth, there's really nothing more to say.

But to be honest, that's how it is now. If it were any other situation, Xu Yao really wouldn't be able to do anything about it.

In short, Xu Yao knew that the matter of the Sixth Elder was not so simple, and that things would really go according to his plan.

It's highly likely that the Sixth Elder was killed by the Seventh Elder.

However, it was the Seventh Elder who wanted to pin the blame on himself.

The reason Xu Yao thought this way was because the mistress had no cultivation at all, while the Sixth Elder was a cultivator.

If poison were released, the Sixth Elder would immediately realize it, so Xiao San simply doesn't have the ability to kill the Sixth Elder.

So that leaves the Seventh Elder, but that's the problem now, there's nothing we can do about it.

In short, putting aside other things, there's no other way to deal with this; if we had used other methods...

Xu Yao still had no choice, but to be honest, that's the situation right now.

Xu Yao went directly to find the illegitimate child.

When Xu Yao saw the illegitimate child, he found the child in his room.

Seeing this illegitimate child alone in his room, Xu Yao naturally had to go and ask him about it.

Upon entering the room, the illegitimate son saw Su Chen. Just as the illegitimate son was about to call out, Xu Yao said, "If you dare to shout or yell..."

"Then don't blame me for this. Do you think I'll let you off the hook?" Xu Yao said.

"So what brings you here? If you can get it out for me now, then I'll tell you."

At this moment, Xu Yao said to the illegitimate son, "I need to know the truth about how your father died."

"If you can explain it clearly, then I naturally don't need to say anything. But if it were someone else now..."

"Then I'll just kill you. So tell me, how exactly did your father die?"

The illegitimate child seemed to be very afraid of Su Chen, so he naturally didn't dare to do anything reckless in this matter, but seeing Xu Yao like this...

The illegitimate son was even more worried, and that's when he said to Xu Yao, "I really didn't know about this, but now I do."

“My mother has met with the Seventh Elder, but I don’t know the specifics of what happened. I don’t know how to answer you if you ask me.”

“If you really want to know about this, then you’ll have to ask the Seventh Elder yourself,” the illegitimate son said.

After hearing the illegitimate child's words, Xu Yao finally said, "Is this true?"

"I figured I couldn't beat you either. If I were lying, I'd probably be dead by now, so I'm sure I'm telling the truth."

Upon hearing about the illegitimate child, Xu Yao decided to go and ask the Seventh Elder, since only he could get the answer from him now.

Thinking of this, Xu Yaocai said to the illegitimate son, "Now that you've said so, then we'll do as you say."

And so, Xu Yao left and went directly to the Seventh Elder's house.

Xu Yao went directly to the Seventh Elder and saw his condition from outside.

It was clear that the Seventh Elder was aware of his own situation; more accurately, he seemed to be doing something.

The Seventh Elder knelt before the Sixth Elder's memorial tablet and said, "You damned devil, how have I wronged you?"

"You're really something, finding me someone else outside. Not only did you find someone, but now look what's happened, this whole mess you've created."

"I'm serious, if you can't get this sorted out, then what's the point now?"

"We were already aware of all this. If you could change your mind, then I wouldn't have any problem with you."

"It's a pity that you yourself know that you're going to do this, so I have nothing to say to you now."

"That's just how things are. As for other things, there's no other way."

"As for anything else, I won't say anything more. Anyway, here's the situation, and you'll have to figure it out yourself."

At this moment, Xu Yao thought to himself, "This Seventh Elder really did kill someone, but he's trying to pin the blame on me."

This is truly a wicked person; this woman is really disgusting. But Xu Yao knows that even if he knows now, there seems to be nothing he can do.

Because everyone in the entire White Sword Manor naturally believed that the Seventh Elder could not possibly believe them.

So after thinking it over, Xu Yao secretly poisoned the Seventh Elder.

This poison is colorless and odorless, and can be spread through the air, thus causing poisoning.

This was something Xu Yao created himself, and now Xu Yao is using this poison to teach the Seventh Elder a lesson.

Xu Yao then quietly left and went back to the prison.

When Xu Yao returned, Bai Yuezhan asked curiously, "Xu Yao, why did you come back after going out?"

Now that Xu Yao knows the truth, he's somewhat reluctant to get involved in the matter.

This was the perfunctory reply to Bai Yuezhan: "I've thought about it, and I can't let you and someone else stay in this prison."

So I came back.

At this moment, Bai Yuezhan looked at Xu Yao with great excitement and said, "Brother Xu Yao, you are truly loyal. If you ever need anything in the future, just let Bai Yuezhan know."
