“I believe in Alif’s character,” Kipling opened his mouth and said. He was speaking up for Alif.

Edward and the others were stunned before realizing the situation. If someone asked them what happened, they knew what to say.

As expected, Fara questioned them next. Their reply was no different from Alifts.

Wang Teng glanced at them and snorted. Alif was delighted. He looked at Wang Teng proudly. I have the backing. What can you do?

Wang Teng was speechless when he saw this despicable man feeling superior. “Old man, are you blind? He has good character?”

Kipling and Alif’s face turned black.

“How dare you humiliate the Great Sage!” Once Alif had someone supporting him, he became arrogant again. He shouted at Wang Teng.

“Is your head getting itchy again?” Wang Teng squinted. A dangerous glow appeared in his eyes.

Alif immediately felt his head hurting again. He took two steps back uncontrollably.

Kipling was disappointed. He had expected better from him. Coward, he’s just a martial warrior from Country Xia. What’s there to be afraid of?

“Fara, are you still going to cover up for him?” Kipling looked at Fara and Alais and continued calmly, “Your Highness, this young man has killed two of Mount Saint’s holy knights and caused great damage to the Cancer Palace. If we don’t punish him, the members of the Holy Temple will be disheartened. As the guardian and protector of the Holy Temple, shouldn’t Your Highness seek justice for us?”

His tone was calm, but his aura was overbearing and aggressive.

He was forcing the Goddess!

He threw out a righteous cause and forced Alais to punish Wang Teng, putting her in a difficult position.

“Both parties have their own version of things. We can’t be certain of what happened. Great Sage Kipling, why are you putting so much pressure on Her Highness?” Great Sage Fara’s expression turned grim. He stared intently at Kipling.

“If we wrongly accuse Wang Teng, our relationship with Country Xia will be strained. Will you bear the consequences?”

“In that case…” Kipling shouted with a strong sense of righteousness, “I’m willing to bear the consequences for Mount Saint’s sake!”

His voice was loud, spreading out far and wide. All the martial warriors on Mount Saint heard him.

Wang Teng had caused a huge commotion when he wreaked havoc in Mount Saint. Many people already knew what happened here and were waiting to see how the drama would play out.

Many people felt respect towards Kipling upon seeing him stepping up. Some of them, who couldn’t see beyond the surface, developed resentment against their Goddess.

Fara’s expression changed, and he glanced at Alais. At this point, he didn’t have a better idea of what to do.

Kipling took the risk and was willing to bear all the consequences to punish Wang Teng. His decision was resolute. He was doing this to earn a reputation!

If the Goddess sided with Wang Teng, the other members of the Holy Temple would be bitterly disappointed.

The same knife could cut the bread and fingers.

This sentence was applicable in this situation.

If the Goddess lost the trust of the people on Mount Saint, she wouldn’t be the Goddess anymore.

Alais frowned. She was in a dilemma and couldn’t make her decision.

Kipling’s eyes lit up. He waved his hand and said, “Take down this martial warrior from Country Xia!”

“Who dares!” An angry shout came from afar.

Many figures were flying over at high speed. This time, they came from the small town below. A few moments later, the people arrived at the scene. Dan Taixuan was among them. Not only that, Darwan and Valeria from Country Boar were present too.

They landed behind Wang Teng and faced Kipling and his men.

Darwan laughed and opened his mouth. “How lively!”

Kipling frowned. Looking at Wang Teng’s new supporters, frustration crept up his heart.

“Are you alright?” Dan Taixuan sized up Wang Teng and asked.

“I’m fine. They’re the ones who are not alright.” Wang Teng shook his head calmly.

Dan Taixuan and the others turned to look at Edward and the holy knights. Bewilderment appeared in their eyes. “Holy knights!”

“Did you beat them up? Did you kill someone?” Zhu Yushao whispered.

Wang Teng glanced at his companions. He felt grateful. They were willing to come even at a time like this. This required much courage.

“This is justifiable self-defense,” he replied.

No reply.

Dan Taixuan, Zhu Yushao, and the others felt speechless when they heard this. You killed someone and label it as justifiable self-defense. Did you mean excessive self-defense?

This fellow created trouble wherever he went!

“What on earth happened here?” Dan Taixuan asked through voice transmission.

Wang Teng didn’t hide the truth, recounting what happened using voice transmission.

Dan Taixuan was at a loss for words.

She knew that she couldn’t blame Wang Teng, but his specialization in creating trouble made her furious.

She felt that troubles were attracted to Wang Teng. If he didn’t create a scene, he couldn’t answer to his amazing talent.

“I’ll find you again when we’re back!” Dan Taixuan glared at him furiously. Then, she turned to Kipling and said in a cold voice, “Who wanted to catch our martial warrior?”

“Why can’t I catch a murderer on Mount Saint?” Kipling mocked.

“I have heard what happened. It’s not our fault,” Dan Taixuan replied calmly.

“Does your word count? The bodies of the two holy knights are still warm. You must give us an answer,” Kipling replied angrily.

“What a joke. You were the ones who invited Wang Teng up the mountain, but you stopped him intentionally too. You even wanted to kill him. However, your skills were too weak, so your men got killed by him. Now, you’re asking us for an answer? I’m already being very polite by not seeking an answer from you.” Dan Taixuan activated her sharp tongue skill and refuted without any mercy.

The holy knights’ faces turned black.

They were too weak?

This was the first time someone said that, but they couldn’t refute it either.

This was exasperating!

“This is all your fault. You invited him and yet hurt him. In the future, who will dare to accept your invitation again?” Darwan sniggered. “This reminds me of a Chinese story… Oh right, the Hongmen Banquet!”

Kipling almost vomited blood.

He had tried so hard to convict Wang Teng, but once these people came, they overturned his verdict and regarded this major accident as a minor one.

He felt frustrated and furious when they talked about it so casually.

Especially when Country Boar interfered too. Offending Country Xia was already a tough decision for him. He couldn’t promise that he could bear the consequences if Country Boar was also added to the mix.

To put it lightly, this was a fight for pride between the martial warriors. But on a larger scale, this was diplomacy.
