Chapter 1234 - I Have Proof

After the old man heard Qi Xin’s words, he instantly looked at Xia Xibei.

After seeing Xia Xibei, he also froze for a moment.

This girl was quite beautiful.

However, he only shook his head for a moment, then put his mind on the spiritual plant.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“You said you were chased by a snake?” the old man asked in a deep voice, and his aura was suddenly unusual.

The others saw the patriarch coming and couldn’t help but take a few steps back.

The old master was not someone they could approach.

Of course, everyone was more afraid of the snake on his shoulder.

This snake looked beautiful, like a green crystal, but it was poisonous!

Although it rarely bit people, the threat of the invertebrate creature, plus its toxin, was enough to scare people.

“Yes,” Xia Xibei nodded and pointed at the snake. “It was the one that chased me.”

“Oh?” the old man raised his eyebrows. “Are you sure?”

“Yes.”

Seeing Xia Xibei so sure, the others couldn’t help but whisper and begin to mock her.

What a laughable thing to say!

How could Grandpa Snake chase her?! Wasn’t that ridiculous?

They knew that Grandpa Snake never played outside.

They usually didn’t dare to get close to the snake.

Was Xia Xibei sticking to her previous lie?

“But it has always been by my side. It never left me.”

When the old master’s words came out, everyone immediately perked up.

If it weren’t for the presence of the old man, everyone might have been unable to resist condemning Xia Xibei.

How shameless!

At this point in time, how dare she continue to lie?!

Qi Xin bowed her head and hid the smile on her lips.

“Are you sure?”

.

To people’s surprise, Xia Xibei also asked a question and was not nervous at all.

Qi Zhiqiang immediately stepped out, “What kind of attitude is that?! Do you know who you are talking to?!”

“Come on, don’t be anxious.” The old man reached out to stop him and looked at Xia Xibei again. “Of course I’m sure.”

He was curious.

This girl did not look old, but she had a calmness and composure that others did not have.

Even in the presence of so many people, she didn’t look the least bit nervous, but rather like she was sure of her victory.

This made the old man couldn’t help but be curious as to who she really was.

“However, it indeed chased me,” Xia Xibei curled the corner of her mouth.

“Do you have proof?”

The old man wasn’t angry.

“We’ve watched the video, and there was only her in it! There was no Grandpa Snake at all!” Qi Xuanran immediately shouted.

After saying that, she couldn’t help but cover her heart and take a few steps back.

It was too scary. She was so afraid of the old man’s eyes.

“Is that so?”

“Yes!” Qi Xin nodded. “We just watched the video, and there was no Grandpa Snake in it.”

The old man looked at Xia Xibei, “Then how do you explain it?”

“Of course I can explain.”

She suddenly bent down.

This action startled everyone and they immediately backed away to the side.

When she straightened up, everyone saw that there was something in her hand.

The thing was shiny and looked like some kind of… Fish scale.

“This is...”

The old man was also shocked.

“This is the scale of some kind of fish, you should recognize it.” Xia Xibei held up the scale. “As to what this thing is for, you guys should know.”

Many people’s faces changed slightly, because they did recognize it.

It was the scale of the koi they kept in their pond!

These koi were different from the koi that were raised outside the compound. They absorbed a lot of spiritual energy, so their flesh was very tasty, and even their scales were very delicious.

Grandpa Snake liked the scales of this kind of fish the most.
