Kill if you can prove it!

After she spoke what was on her mind, the people gathered in Yang Ming's court fell into silence, many were shocked by the news, but most did not believe it.

'Ha, like father, like son!' - pondered Yang Ming, looking at the sixth elder as the old man seemed to not believe the story, assuming that the whole story had been invented by Yang Ming.

"Lies! How dare you defame my name!" - while the entire courtyard stood in silence, an angry cry erupted, after which the corners of Yang Ming's lips lifted slightly in a smile.

'Gotcha!'

Shui Han Yin listened silently to the cries of Bai Lin's mother without even uttering a word, for she believed that a wife who cheated on her own husband with their son was not worthy to live.

Many were silent; they did not know how to react to this difficult situation. In fact, what to do next?

And in this silence, Yang Ming suddenly heard an alert from the system.

*Ding!*

[ The hero loses 100 life points. The user gained 200 points. ]

"System, am I now allowed to kill the hero's loved ones?" - impatiently asked Yang Ming's question.

[ The user can use violence on the hero's loved ones, as well as kill. Since the hero has 500 life points left, which corresponds to the conditions of the system ].

'Finally, it's time to get this circus over with!' - thought Yang Ming.

Yang Ming knew that if he didn't resort to violence now, the encounter with the hero could drag on for a long time, and he didn't want that to happen. It was time to move out in search of the treasure or the next hero or heroine.

"Are you sure you didn't have sex with your son?" - Yang Ming asked, looking at the angry wife of the sixth elder.

"Yes, she's lying! I would never cheat on my husband, much less with my son!"

"Well, what if I could prove it?"

Her confident tone and the outrage as if she's being falsely accused amused Yang Ming; he wanted to see what she would look like in a few minutes.

"I'm ready to die!" - she replied.

She was sure that it was impossible to prove her intimate connection with her son. The last time they did this was a week ago, and at that time Yang Ming was not yet in the lower realm, so it was impossible for him to provide any proof.

After her words, many people changed their minds about this woman: if before they might have had some doubts about her, now they were convinced that she was innocent, and the events that Shui Han Yin spoke about were a complete lie. After all, who would put their life on line for something like that?

"I knew it, she's a spoiled little girl!"

The sixth patriarch smiled, cursing himself for doubting his wife and believing that she had slept with another man, even though she herself had a marriage contract.

Bai Lin felt as much as his mother that it was impossible to produce proof of their intimate connection. This was something that was impossible to prove, but he was a little nervous, for she might lose her life if Yang Ming somehow got hold of anything that could be considered a proof.

"Well, if you want to die, I'll let you!" - Yang Ming laughed to himself.

"All right, if you say so! Old man!"

Suddenly, a figure dressed in black appeared in front of Yang Ming, his face was completely covered by a mask but you could tell from his physique that it was a man. From the way Yang Ming called him, it was obvious that he was an elderly man.

"Sir!"

Shui Wai Tian lowered his head, while kneeling on his right knee.

"Give me a spiritual crystal of images."

After Yang Ming took the image crystal and looked at what was in it, his expression changed slightly, while his smile turned into a wicked sneer.

"Who is he?" - many wondered when Shui Wai Tian appeared, for they could not even feel this man's presence, they could not sense how long he had been in this place.

"He..."

The patriarch and the six elders, as well as all the others gathered, could not see how Shui Wai Tian appeared. But, unlike the others, they could tell for sure: He was tyrannically powerful. They could only assume that no one in the lower realm could be his rival or even approximate his level of cultivation.

Only two people, unlike the others, became uncomfortable after the appearance of Shui Wai Tian. And it was not at all the presence of this man that made them uncomfortable but the thing he handed to Yang Ming.

'A spiritual crystal of images!' - they shuddered even at the thought of it.

Both swallowed hard, though they were not in the middle or higher realm, they knew what it was. Simply put, it could record a small snippet of time, mostly used by alchemists to view the repetition of reactions over alchemical reactions. But that wasn't important, the problem now was what was recorded on it.

But the next action of the figure in black made Bai Lin and his mother sweat a little, and they felt a chill run down their backs.

After Yang Ming looked at the contents of the spiritual crystal of images, Shui Wai Tian handed him five more of the same spiritual crystals, but with different contents.

"Pfft... Ahahahahaha," Yang Ming tried to hold back a laugh, but after viewing the spiritual image crystals, he could no longer contain himself.

It was really very funny, each crystal had a recording of Bai Lin having sex with a woman.

But each of the spiritual crystals contained a recording of different women, and the most important thing is that they were the wives of all the elders, from first through sixth.

"Fuck, I couldn't even imagine what whores they are!" - with disdain Yang Ming regarded them as not worthy of life, even in his past life he hated betrayal and treason more than anything else.

Hearing Yang Ming's crazy laughter, which was completely different from the way he had acted before, many shuddered and were puzzled as to what was inside the spirit crystals of the image.

"Old man, fulfill his request!"

Many people didn't understand what Yang Ming meant, but the old man seemed to know what he was talking about, because he disappeared right after that.

Where did Yang Ming get the spiritual image stones? It was quite simple.

Even before Yang Ming arrived in the Shui Clan, Shui Wai Tian was already here gathering information about the lower realm and the supposed place where the treasure that Yang Ming was looking for might be stored.

But later he found out that one of the Shui clan servants had a peculiar hobby: he recorded on a spiritual crystal images of one of the clan members as he slept with different women. Shui Wai Tian completely ignored him until Yang Ming gave him the task of finding out all about Bai Lin and his weaknesses.

And at that moment, he remembered this man; in short, they made a deal in exchange for these 6 spirit image crystals, he would be able to get to the northern region, Yang Ming did not think long, as this was a very good deal and quickly agreed to it.

"It's time!" - Yang Ming smiled wickedly.

"Before I kill the wife of the sixth patriarch, I would like to show you something."

After these words, he sent six spiritual image crystals into the hands of the elders.
