Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 2461

Fade shook his head in puzzlement and said, "I was completely unconscious at that time. I thought I was dead, but when I woke up, I found myself floating in the sea."

"That..." Several chiefs frowned. His answer did not contain the answer that they wanted to know.

Hence, they asked a few more detailed questions.

Being unconscious at the time, he could not answer any of their questions. The chiefs couldn't tell if he was being truthful or not. Therefore, all they could do was discuss amongst themselves quietly. After some discussion, Thurl looked at Fade and said, "The heart of that tree is very special. It is the core of the Prohibition Tree, and also an integral part of Prohibition Island."

"You are the first one to successfully enter the heart of the tree and come back safely. For safety's sake, we'd better carry out a physical examination on you to check for any side effects"

They claimed it was just a health check-up, but in reality, they wanted to examine his physical condition to try and figure out if he was telling the truth or not.

Fade knew this, but he did not hesitate. Instead, he responded gratefully, "Many thanks to all of you for being so concerned with my health. I really appreciate it!"

"Chief, do I need to do anything?" Fade was at a loss.

Thurl replied, "Just stand where you are, and don't let your positive energy flow. Got that?"

"Got it!" Fade nodded and stood where he was obediently.

Then, he felt a different kind of energy enter his body. It explored every nerve, vessel, and organ inside him.

Naturally, the key part in which they explored was the dantian abdomen, as it was the core of his body.

It also contained the ever so important elixir core within.

Fade had already tried this before. Outsiders were able to examine his dantian abdomen, but not his elixir core.

However, after all, the sixteen chiefs were Lord Level masters.

He couldn't guarantee that they really wouldn't find out anything.

For a moment, he couldn't help getting nervous.

Under the eyes of the various chiefs, this sort of instinctive nervousness was a normal reaction. After all, when faced with the pressure of sixteen Lord Level experts, anyone would be shaking in their boots. After careful investigation, the chiefs looked at each other and shook their heads.

Obviously, they did not find anything abnormal in his body.

Eventually, Thurl spoke up. "We are done with the examination. Fade, your body is simple, and your positive energy has increased by quite a bit. It seems like this experience has been a good one for you." "Really? That's great. Thank you, everyone!" Fade's face was full of excitement.

Then, Janus said, "Fade, before entering the Prohibition Tree, we asked you to pick a Martial Hall to enter. At that time, you said you had to think about it. Have you come to a decision yet?" Sure enough, the Hall selection was inevitably brought up.

For a moment, Fade could sense that Camelia, Red Serpent, and the others behind him were looking straight at him.

He paused slightly and said, "It's my honor to be chosen by all of the chiefs. It would be an honor to me to join any one of the Martial Halls."

"However, there's something that I can't seem to get over."

"What is it?" Janus asked.

Fade's voice sank and he said, "It's the matter about pushing me into the center of the tree and almost killing me."

As he said this, the chiefs looked at each other and whispered. Soon, they understood what was going on.

At that moment, Abelard's

expression changed. He already had a vague idea of what Fade wanted to say. He rushed to speak and said, "My dear chiefs, the student named Jaston is the son from the Yowen family."

"Not long ago, Jaston was killed by Fade, and half of the Yuwen family was slaughtered."

"Moreover, this happened before Jaston had even been convicted of his supposed crime." Speaking of this, Abelard's expression darkened and he looked at Fade and Camelia.

"Jaston may be a suspect, but before being convicted, he was still a disciple of Poison Cloud Hall. In my opinion, this is an extremely unfair act. I hope to hear an explanation from Fade and Camelia." After Abelard finished speaking, Veda's expression sank to a frown.

Fade and Camelia also frowned slightly in response. It seemed that they didn't expect

Abelard to use this as a counterattack.

After a slight pause, Fade looked at

him and said without hesitation, "Since Mr Abelard wants me to explain, Kshall. Jaston was the one who repaid my kindness with evil by pushing me into the heart of the tree. It is only natural that I should kill him!"

"Before he is convicted, everything you say is just your one-sided story. Moreover, Jaston is dead now. He can't even defend himself," Abelard retorted.

Fade said, "It's not just my word. There were more than a dozen students present at that time and everyone saw it. If you don't believe me, you can go and ask them. The conclusion is clear."

From aside, Lamella said slowly, "Chiefs, I've called up those students and they are waiting outside. If you want to know the truth, call them in and ask them."

"Camelia, you..." It was apparent that Abelard didn't expect her to have made such a move. For a moment, his expression turned ugly.

At this time, Janus waved his hand and said.

"In that case, call them in for questioning!"

As a result, Bolton, Mina, Saimus, and several other students were summoned in.

They had joined the Martial Halls for some time, but this was the first time they were face to face with all the chiefs. Therefore, they couldn't help getting nervous. Then, Janus personally began to question them.

All these students had previously assumed that Fade was dead. In addition, they didn't want to offend Poison Cloud Hall. Hence, they had never stepped up to explain the matter. Now, Jaston was the one who was dead, and Fade was alive and well. He was even being highly valued at the moment.

In this situation, of course, they all chose to speak the truth about what happened.

There were even some people who vividly described how Fade did his best to rescue them. They also recounted how Jaston betrayed him and sent him flying into the heart of the tree at the end. Once they had finished testifying, Camelia's voice broke the silence, "All the students have spoken. It seems the truth is apparent! Mr. Abelard, is there anything else you have to say?"

Abelard's expression turned a little

ugly. He glanced at Veda in his seat,

but did not respond. He could only

grit his teeth and say, "It's great for all of us that this matter has been thoroughly investigated now."

"Since Jaston was the murderer, it's reasonable that he should die."
