Chapter 393: Seven Words from the Sword Holding Palace

~14 min read 2,681 words

Seeing this scene, the two Law Enforcement Palace cultivators escorting Xu Qing had their expressions change completely, endless shock and anger rising in their hearts. They were very certain they had not tortured Xu Qing.

Not only did they not, but the entire Third Division did not.

In these three days in prison, they did not even see Xu Qing once.

At this moment, in their anxiety and anger, they spoke repeatedly.

"This is impossible, we did not use torture!"

"This is clearly something you fabricated. Do you not know what kind of place the Law Enforcement Palace is? How dare you come to blackmail the Law Enforcement Palace!"

Seeing that the Captain's miserable wailing had reached its mark, Immortal Zixuan knew it was time for her to step forward, so she took a step forward. As this step landed, the cultivation of the Void Returning Realm erupted from her body.

Dao lines flowed in her eyes, and the terrifying fluctuations of her body caused the heavens and the earth to change color, with all directions rumbling.

Even in the Capital, the Void Returning Realm was the Void Returning Realm. One person's aura shocked all directions, and her expression was even more gloomy, containing anger. She did not pay attention to the two nameless pawns who were arguing, but raised her head to look into the depths of the Law Enforcement Palace.

"Immortal Zixuan, a cultivator of the human sect in Yinghuang Province, escorting the brilliance of our sect, the newly promoted Sword Holder personally appointed by the Great Emperor. Xu Qing entered the Capital. Regarding this matter, I ask the Law Enforcement Palace to give an explanation. Is our sect's Dao Child Xu Qing being framed out of jealousy, or is he truly guilty!"

The Law Enforcement Palace was very large, and the place where the Third Division was located was only a small part of it. However, whether it was the Captain before or Immortal Zixuan, their voices were louder, spreading to all directions.

Many Law Enforcement Palace cultivators heard it from their respective locations. At first, when they heard the Captain's roar, some experts in the Law Enforcement Palace were dissatisfied and prepared to go over to stop the noise.

After all, making such a scene here in the Law Enforcement Palace would naturally cause the Law Enforcement Palace to feel disgusted. But after hearing about the jealousy mentioned in the words, some stopped.

The word "jealousy" clearly carried personal grievances and had nothing to do with official business, nor was it related to themselves, so naturally, there was no reason to intervene.

Even if there were still some who were still maintaining their majesty and wanted to come to stop it, after hearing about the brilliance and the Great Emperor's personal appointment in the Captain's words, they all withdrew and did not participate.

After all, those who could serve here were not stupid.

Even colleagues who were familiar with that Third Division Chief, Yao Yunhui, were hesitant now that they saw Immortal Zixuan step forward. Besides Immortal Zixuan's attitude, what made them hesitate were the dozens of indignant Sword Holders.

And with no one coming to stop it, this matter naturally grew bigger and bigger, and even those Sword Holders called their colleagues via sound transmission. Seeing the situation change like this, Zhang Siyun's mother could not sit still.

She realized Xu Qing's difficulty, and even more understood that this matter could not be dragged on and must be resolved immediately, otherwise, it would be extremely unfavorable to her.

After all, this matter did not stand to reason. If it had gone according to her original plan, it would have been fine, but now the other party's counterattack was too swift and sharp, and it hit the key point directly.

So she walked out of her office with a gloomy face, and with one step, she arrived outside the Third Division prison, appearing before everyone.

Her arrival immediately made the two Law Enforcement Palace disciples breathe a sigh of relief, and they hurriedly ran to pay their respects.

At the same time, the Eight Sect Alliance members and those Sword Holders all looked at the arriving Yao Yunhui.

Especially Immortal Zixuan, whose aura caused the wind and clouds to change color, her phoenix eyes carrying a coldness as she looked at the stunning beauty before her who was on par with herself in appearance.

Yao Yunhui was silent. Her cultivation was not Void Returning, only Spirit Storage. If she were in a place with no one around, she would naturally fear Immortal Zixuan, but here in the Law Enforcement Palace, she was not afraid.

But her arrival was to deal with the problem, so she took a deep breath, bowed to Immortal Immortal Zixuan, and when she turned to look at Xu Qing, an apologetic look appeared in her eyes, and she spoke softly.

"Xu Qing, this matter is the negligence of my Third Division. As the Chief, I will definitely investigate it to the end and give you an explanation. And now I can prove that this time the Eight Sect Alliance branch and you personally were only here to assist in the investigation. Now everything is clear, and you have not committed overstepping."

"That is why I ordered your release before. But now that such a problem has occurred, no matter the reason, it is not important, and there is no need to look at the prison recording. This must be my responsibility, my negligence."

Yao Yunhui spoke sincerely. After finishing, she even took out a jade slip, as if she were investigating the matter.

And her words were very meaningful. She seemed to be apologizing, but it was in the capacity of the Third Division Chief.

In this way, it naturally implied that she was unaware, as if everything was the chaotic behavior of her subordinates. At the same time, she stood out, revealing her own responsibility.

In addition, she explained that everything was an investigation, using the release as proof that this was not a personal grievance of jealousy.

This removed herself from the matter.

Finally, she pointed out the recording, implying a warning. This scene made Xu Qing's eyes narrow slightly, while the Captain raised his eyebrows and swept a glance at Yao Yunhui.

Although the other party's layout was crude, her means of dealing with the problem were still acceptable.

"I am investigating the cause and effect of this matter, and there will be an answer soon. Xu Qing's injuries are very serious. I have a Spirit-Nurturing Pill here, please accept it and treat your injuries first."

Yao Yunhui looked apologetic and took out a pill.

This pill shone with a soft light, and one look showed it was definitely not ordinary.

"Don't worry, let alone the brilliance personally appointed by the Great Emperor, even ordinary people are treated equally in the eyes of my Law Enforcement Palace, enforcing the law impartially. This is our duty."

Yao Yunhui said, placing the pill aside. Then the jade slip in her hand flashed. After she checked it intently, a look of majesty appeared on her face, and she looked at the two Law Enforcement Palace disciples beside her.

"So it was you two. It has been verified that you two used private torture."

Before the two Law Enforcement Palace disciples could speak, the moment their expressions changed, Yao Yunhui waved her hand. In the next instant, the two let out miserable screams, their bodies exploded with a loud sound, spitting out large mouthfuls of blood, and they were directly rolled away to the distance, life or death unknown.

"Lock them in the prison."

Immediately, Third Division disciples flew out and dragged away the two, not knowing if they had become corpses.

From beginning to end, Yao Yunhui handled this cleanly and extremely quickly, and even directly defined the nature of the matter. Of course, this was also because the information she got from the jade slip was that the prison recording jade slip had been artificially damaged and could not be used as evidence.

At this moment, having dealt with the two subordinates, she bowed to Xu Qing and Immortal Zixuan respectively, looking ashamed.

"This matter is my negligence in management, causing Xu Qing to suffer grievances. I see that Xu Qing's injuries are very serious. You can go back and rest first. This matter has been investigated, and I will give you an explanation later, and I will personally visit you."

A cold glint flashed in Xu Qing's eyes. The other party's various actions resolved most of this matter instantly. If he continued to dwell on the injuries, the situation would evolve, giving people a feeling of being aggressive.

Xu Qing thought in his heart. Although from the result, his resume would not have problems, but if it ended like this, he felt it was not enough, so he opened his mouth slightly, as if wanting to say something.

But his injuries were too serious, he was extremely weak, and neither his divine sense nor his voice could be transmitted. The Captain saw this and leaned over to listen. Soon, the anger on his face turned into disbelief, and he exclaimed. "What, Little Junior Brother, those two beasts whose life or death is unknown took 30 million spirit stones from you?"

Yao Yunhui's phoenix eyes narrowed, and her mood inevitably fluctuated. She realized Xu Qing's difficulty again. Even though she had resolved the other party's previous counterattack, in an instant, the other party changed methods and continued to attack.

30 million spirit stones was not a small amount for her. This feeling of being blackmailed to her face made her feel like she had eaten dog shit, but she had to swallow it.

Yet she could not get angry. At this moment, she could only take a deep breath, suppress the agitated emotions in her heart, look at the Captain and Xu Qing deeply, squeeze out a smile, and nod slowly.

"I will investigate this matter, if..."

Before she could finish her words, Xu Qing spat out a mouthful of blood again, and his body's aura became even weaker. The Captain looked indignant, immediately fed Xu Qing medicine, and while feeding, he laughed miserably.

"Is this still the Law Enforcement Palace? Arbitrary beating, open robbery, Little Junior Brother, are we still in the human Capital!"

"This matter is intolerable to heaven, this matter..."

Seeing that the matter was about to rise again, Yao Yunhui's forehead veins jumped, and anger rose in her heart, but she knew she could not drag it on, so she gritted her teeth and spoke.

"This matter needs time to investigate, but the 30 million spirit stones, the Third Division can advance it!"

When these words were spoken, her heart was dripping blood.

Hearing this, the Captain felt hot in his heart, his heartbeat even accelerated a bit. After licking his lips, he hurriedly leaned over to Xu Qing again. This time Xu Qing did not speak...

But the Captain clenched his right hand into a fist and slammed it hard on the floor tiles. As the tiles shattered and exploded, his eyes were bloodshot, his voice became hoarse, and he spoke loudly.

"What, there are also the seventeen killing formations and fifty-seven magic tools I lent you, they didn't let those go either?"

The Captain was heartbroken and devastated, his eyes completely bloodshot.

Xu Qing looked at the Captain, felt the Captain's inner heat, and nodded.

Yao Yunhui's breathing was faster than ever, her emotions fluctuating violently. She stared at the Captain, and her disgust for this person had surpassed Xu Qing.

Just as she was about to speak, in the next instant, a terrifying divine sense spread from the depths of the Law Enforcement Palace, covering this place as if inspecting it.

After feeling this divine sense, Yao Yunhui's heart trembled. She knew that what she had done had already caused the dissatisfaction of the higher-ups, so she could only grit her teeth again, and she had to put on a calm face.

But she underestimated the Captain. At this moment, just as the calmness appeared, the Captain wailed. "The three magic treasure fragments given by Master were also taken?"

"The more than 10 million spirit stones that the Sword Holder friends wanted to buy the specialties of my Seven Blood Eyes, they actually didn't let those go either? That is the hard-earned money of the Sword Holders."

"Ah, and the three Heavenly Palace Pills given to you by Immortal Immortal Zixuan, they actually dared to take those too?"

Immortal Zixuan's expression sank, and she looked coldly at Yao Yunhui.

The Sword Holders on the side, including Chen Tinghao, looked at the Captain with strange expressions and nodded one after another.

This scene made Yao Yunhui somewhat unable to suppress the monstrous anger in her heart. Her hatred was strong. This matter of being blackmailed again and again, eventually evolving into collective blackmail, made her feel extremely aggrieved.

Seeing this, Xu Qing's fingers moved, signaling that it was about enough, and to stop while ahead.

He felt that if it continued, it would be counterproductive.

The Captain was somewhat unwilling and was about to continue, but Xu Qing spat out a mouthful of blood again.

Only then did the Captain stop, and with an indignant expression, he carried Xu Qing on his back and walked toward Immortal Immortal Zixuan. Finally, under Yao Yunhui's gaze, the Eight Sect Alliance members left quickly.

With their departure, this place became quiet, and the terrifying divine sense that came from the depths of the Law Enforcement Palace turned into a calm voice at this moment.

"Chief Yao, this is the Law Enforcement Palace, the palace of human justice. The power given to you is for the justice of the human race, not a place for you to resolve personal grievances. Regarding this matter, you have overstepped."

Yao Yunhui's heart trembled, and she lowered her head.

"The Sword Holding Palace just sent an official document, and the content of the document is only one sentence, seven words." "Yao Yunhui, are you looking for death?"

Yao Yunhui took a deep breath, and after a long silence, she spoke in a low voice. "Palace Master, this subordinate knows her mistake."

"Take care of yourself." The terrifying divine sense in the Law Enforcement Palace dissipated with the transmission of these four words.

Yao Yunhui stood silently in place. After a long time, she turned around and walked into her office with an expressionless face.

As soon as she walked in, she saw Zhang Siyun waiting there, his face full of concern. "Mother..."

"Yun'er, these two colleagues of yours are not simple." Yao Yunhui walked to her son's front and spoke expressionlessly.

Zhang Siyun's heart trembled, not knowing how to speak, when Yao Yunhui raised her right hand and slapped him hard.

This slap was very forceful. Zhang Siyun spat out blood, his body was directly rolled onto the wall, and when he fell, his internal organs were churning, blood spat out again, and half of his face was swollen high.

"Trash!" "Your father is trash, the Taisi Immortal Gate is trash, and you are also trash!"

Yao Yunhui gritted her teeth, venting the anger in her heart in this slap.

Facing his mother's scolding, Zhang Siyun dared not refute, and even dared not wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and could only lower his head. This scene was something he had experienced countless times since he was a child.

After scolding Zhang Siyun, Yao Yunhui sat on the chair, took a deep breath, and after calming her emotions again, she picked up the bird's nest soup on the side, took a sip, and raised her elegant head.

On her flawless pretty face, those gem-like eyes looked toward the direction of the Eight Sect Alliance branch, her small mouth curled slightly, revealing a beautiful arc, her red lips parted slightly.

"Warning me? But this is even more interesting." ===== CHAPTER 394 =====
