Soon, a royal physician respectfully addressed Qitian Yu, “Reporting to the Crown Prince, the powder inside the bottle indeed causes Arcane Masters to lose their arcane power. As for whether they will become completely disabled and unable to cultivate again, no one has personally experienced it, so it is currently difficult to determine.”
Gu Zhixin’s legs went weak, almost sitting on the ground.
He immediately exclaimed, “This poison is theirs! Breaking Spirit Powder was stuffed into my son’s arms by that little white fox, framing him!”
Feng Yuanxi’s eyes flashed with wisdom, and his young voice remained calm and composed, “Didn’t you just say this belongs to your son?”
Gu Zhixin tried to defend himself, “1 saw it fall next to him, so I thought it was his, but he couldn’t have such a thing! It must have been forcibly planted on him by that little beast, which belongs to Gu Xiaonan!”
Feng Yuanxi calmly stated, “With everyone’s keen eyesight, the petite little white fox couldn’t have concealed any poison, especially not from so many people. The poison clearly fell out of Gu Jirong’s embrace!”
He had an unwavering demeanor, impartially stating the facts, making people involuntarily convinced.
Many people nodded in agreement with Feng Yuanxi. Gu Zhixin pointed at him angrily, “You’re on their side, naturally speaking for them!”
“Outrageous!” Qitian Yu shouted in anger.
Gu Zhixin was startled, not understanding, and asked, “Crown Prince, did… did… I say something wrong?”
“This young master won’t favor anyone; Second Master Gu, please be cautious.” Qitian Yu secretly glanced at the loft above.
Did Lord Lan get angry?
If Qitian Yu provoked him, nobody would be able to leave unscathed.
Gu Zhixin looked puzzled as he glanced at Feng Yuanxi.
This young man indeed exuded an extraordinary aura, but why did the Crown Prince seem wary of him?
In the whole of Tianjing City, there shouldn’t be any legitimate heir who would command such… reverence from the Crown Prince, right?
“Crown Prince, who is this young master?”
Gu Zhicheng’s eyes flickered. Someone with such treatment from the Crown Prince must have an extraordinary background, and he seemed to have a good relationship with Miss Gu Qingluan.
Feng Tianlan didn’t nod, and Qitian Yu dared not reveal Feng Yuanxi’s identity.
He explained, “This young master has a special identity, and he won’t favor any side in the selection competition. A/loreover, we all witnessed the poison falling out of Third Young Master Gu’s embrace. For now, it seems that Third Young Master Gu has a greater suspicion of fabricating and framing his opponents.”
Gu Zhixin cried out in protest.
“All the evidence is right here. Second Master Gu, can you provide any evidence to prove his innocence?” Qitian Yu asked.
Naturally, Gu Zhixin couldn’t produce any.
Suddenly, he remembered his son’s slip of the tongue and quickly said, “Why would my son poison himself if he had administered the poison? It’s evident that the opponents are framing him and attempting to harm him. They fear my son will expose their act of poisoning, so they silenced him!”
The more Gu Zhixin thought about it, the more he believed it was Gu Xiaonan’s doing.
This boy was very strange. When Wang Shi sent people to capture Gu Xiaonan, she ended up being poisoned and almost lost her life.
At that time, Wang Shi had several experts and still ended up in such a miserable state.
How could his son, all alone, be a match for such a despicable scoundrel?
“Water…”
A hoarse voice came from behind.
Gu Zhixin’s back stiffened.
Was that Rong’er’s voice?
Did he wake up?
In one moment, he claimed that his son was poisoned and rendered mute, only to be proven wrong the next second.
That was a quick self-inflicted embarrassment.
Gu Zhixin couldn’t dwell on the embarrassment of being proven wrong instantly.. He turned around and rushed to Gu Jinrong’s side, asking, “Rong’er, how do you feel?”
