Chapter 2782: Justice of the Heroine
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Xu Xian's face changed slightly. They thought they had done a perfect job, but they didn't expect that the owner of the manor would not give them any face at all.
Xu Xian looked at Shi Li with resentment, and then pretended to be nothing, "Master, I don't understand what you mean."
"I thought you were guests and didn't want to pursue the matter, but what kind of guests are you to cause trouble and set off fireworks on my birthday, and even break into the treasury of the villa with the intention of stealing?" The owner of the villa didn't buy her trick at all and told her a series of events in an aggressive manner.
Feeling that everyone around her was looking at her with strange eyes, Xu Xian gritted her teeth and still looked innocent, "Master, I don't know who is behind this, but there is no evidence, how can you say that I did it?"
She was just certain that neither the owner of the manor nor Shi Li had any evidence.
"You want evidence, and I am your proof. I saw with my own eyes you and Hong Quan breaking into the treasury, trying to steal the Lotus of Yan Ze, but it was a pity that you escaped!"
Shi Li really despised their behavior and immediately stood up and spoke out.
Xu Xian only glanced at her, and suddenly sneered, "Miss Shi, I know you don't like me, but you should always provide evidence when you speak. You said that my husband and I stole? It's obvious that you framed us."
After she finished speaking, she looked at the owner of the manor again, "Excuse me for being blunt, Miss Shi has ulterior motives. Are you trying to stir up a conflict between Tianhu Mountain Manor and our sect?"
This is to deny it to the death, and to throw dirty water on Shi Li. Shi Li was furious, and just as she was about to speak, the owner of the manor held her hand.
"Are you trying to use your father to put pressure on me?" The owner of the manor looked at Xu Xian sarcastically, "I don't trust my own biological daughter, so how can I trust you who are full of lies?"
In front of everyone, the owner of the manor directly revealed Shi Li's true identity.
Everyone was stunned, and Xu Xian looked like she had been hit hard on the head, her face turning extremely pale.
She never expected that Shi Li would be the eldest daughter of Tianhu Villa. She didn't take her seriously before, but now things are difficult.
"I don't know Miss Shi's identity, I was rude just now." But she adjusted her mentality quickly, glanced at the owner and Shi Li, and frowned in confusion, "It's just that Miss Shi kept saying that I broke into the treasure house, which really puzzled me. After all, my husband and I have never done such a petty theft."
Xu Xian knew very well that she could not admit anything she said today, and she also determined that Shi Li had no evidence, so she was prepared to deny it to the end.
The owner of the manor didn't want to listen to her excuses, and only looked at Hong Quan who had been silent beside him, "You said the same thing?"
Hong Quan looked ashamed, but he still stood beside his wife and nodded immediately.
"Good! Very good!" The owner of the manor laughed in anger, "In that case, don't blame me for being rude."
After saying that, the owner looked at Shi Li.
"Do you really think I don't have evidence?" Shi Li was also shocked by their shamelessness. He took a step forward and looked at the feet of the two men. "I just sprinkled a special powder at the entrance of the treasure house. If you have never been there, the soles of your shoes would definitely not be stained with powder. Now let Spider identify whose feet are stained with powder."
Shi Li took out the porcelain bottle that had been prepared long ago, bent over to open the bottle, and two special snow-white spiders crawled out from it.
"This is the Snow Spirit Spider. We can't go wrong with it." A knowledgeable person exclaimed.
Everyone in the martial arts world knows that the Snow Spirit Spider is hard to find, but it is extremely sensitive to smells and will definitely be able to identify it.
The moment she saw the Snow Spirit Spider, Xu Xian's face became extremely ugly.
It's no use trying to argue now.
Two snow spiders crawled onto the soles of her and Hong Quan's shoes respectively, and the people around them exclaimed again.
"It's really them!"
"Just now he swore that it was not his fault, but I never thought he was such a thief!"
"What a shame!"
The contemptuous looks and sharp words from the people around her stabbed at her like knives. Xu Xian's face turned pale and her body was shaking.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Hong Quan quickly reached out to support her, looked up at the owner of the manor with pleading eyes.
"Master, please be merciful. Xian'er just wants to borrow the Lotus of Yanze for our child..."
"That's a very high-sounding statement!" The owner of the manor had just exhausted his last bit of patience. He sneered and slapped the armrest, "Can't this manor owner tell the difference between stealing and borrowing? Come on, take them down!"
The owner of the manor was really furious this time. Such a rare birthday banquet for guests was disrupted to such an extent.
Xu Xian and Hong Quan didn't take her seriously at all.
The disciples of Tianhu Villa nearby had been accumulating anger points since a while ago. After hearing the words of the villa owner, they immediately rushed towards the two of them.
Just at this moment, a sharp sound of piano was heard outside the door.
Following him came a middle-aged man with great martial arts skills and an ethereal air.
Holding a zither in his hand, he floated to Xu Xian's side to protect her, then looked coldly at the owner of the manor.
"You bullied my daughter?"
This is the best interpretation of what it means that the wicked are the first to complain.
