Chapter 618: Xi Muchen's Intentional Act

Xia Wanwan was slightly puzzled, not quite understanding the meaning behind Shangguan Junwu's words.

She looked at Xi Muchen and asked, "What does he mean by that? Had you already investigated this matter before?"

Xi Muchen's gaze turned frosty as he cast a glance at Shangguan Junwu, seeming to have no intention of concealing the truth.

"Yes. I've looked into it."

"Merely looked into it?" Shangguan Junwu spoke up, "After investigating, you also sent the information to Mo Bai, so he could look into this matter himself. Am I right, Emperor Muchen?"

Xi Muchen let out a cold laugh, neither confirming nor denying.

However, his reaction angered Mo Bai, who turned to Xi Muchen and demanded, "The information and evidence I received were from you?!"

"Yes." Compared to Mo Bai's agitation, Xi Muchen appeared quite calm, and his face even bore a hint of innocence, "I told you about the evidence—shouldn't you be grateful to me? What's the point of getting angry?"
