章 294: Chapter 293: Speak Conscientiously

"Nephew, this matter was simply a misunderstanding, and I, Jing, accept my bad luck. What outstanding matter could there possibly be between us?"

"Elder Jing, the misunderstanding is not between you and me, but between you and Lin Buyan."

Lu Bei stated his case logically, "To my knowledge, Mei Wangsu, Wen Bubei and others caused a ruckus in the secret realm, interrupting the Iron Sword Tournament and causing the secret realm to disappear unexpectedly. In order to appease Lingxiao Sword Sect, Heavenly Sword Sect has not only expelled Mei Wangsu from the Elder Directory, but also issued an Iron Sword Manhunt Order. Any sword cultivator within the Iron Sword League is awarded for killing either of them."

"Ahem."

Jing Ji coughed slightly and clenched his fist, "Nephew, you're right. However, most of the reward money is provided by Lingxiao Sword Sect. Your presence there now might not be appropriate."
