Chapter 689: Hearing Qing Que wailing: No, don't!!!

~7 min read 1,378 words

"There is no need for this."

Seeing Cheng Cheng Jie suddenly about to kneel, Lin Mo wore a strange expression and shook his head.

With a light wave of his hand, he prevented Cheng Cheng Jie, who had been about to kneel, from being able to do so no matter how hard he tried.

Cheng Cheng Jie could feel an immensely heavy force obstructing his movements.

The next second, after hearing Lin Mo's words, Cheng Cheng Jie's expression became excited: "Really?"

If Guest Lin Mo said so, didn't that mean Guest Lin Mo had agreed?

"Hehe."

At this moment, Hearing Qing Que chuckled and said, "We can go over right now, because there is a Judge from the Ten-Lords Commission who needs to meet with the Master Diviner."

"With Guest Lin Mo there, this matter will be even easier to handle."

As she spoke, Hearing Qing Que looked at Lin Mo.

"By the way, how do you know so much about this?"

Hearing Hearing Qing Que's words, Bai Lu looked at her suspiciously.

It seemed as if Hearing Qing Que could handle it all by herself.

"Because ever since the Ambrosial Arbor was reborn... the Master Diviner has been tasked with calculating the future. And so, she had me, the Treasurer, organize and report the divination results, and I even stamped the documents with the 'Report to the Ten Lords' seal."

Hearing Qing Que spread her hands: "But I must say this in advance: from here on out, you have to strive for it yourself, Cheng Cheng Jie. Because the help that Lin Mo and I could provide, we have already provided. You are looking for your Master."

"Mm-hmm."

Hearing Hearing Qing Que's words, Cheng Cheng Jie nodded heavily.

Immediately, the group left and headed toward the Divination Commission.

Upon arriving at the Matrix of Prescience in the Divination Commission, they saw the familiar Judge Hearing Xue Yi and Fu Xuan in conversation.

"If the Ten-Lords Commission wants the Divination Commission to provide more precise calculations regarding these traitors, you must provide sufficient information."

Fu Xuan looked at the Hearing Xue Yi before her and spoke.

"I have already given enough."

Hearing Xue Yi shook her head: "Not only have I opened the case files to you, but I have also personally apprehended the criminals."

"But as far as I know, the people from the 'Disciples of Sanctus Medicus' who fall into your hands all end up dead."

Fu Xuan looked at Hearing Xue Yi expressionlessly: "What do you expect me to calculate for dead people whose paths have already ended?"

If it were anyone else, she would have chased them away long ago.

"Hmph."

Hearing this, Hearing Xue Yi let out a cold snort: "Abominations are dangerous; showing mercy and not killing them only leads to harm. Dead people can also provide evidence."

Hearing Hearing Xue Yi's words, Fu Xuan looked at her thoughtfully and said: "I have heard that Judges have four duties: 'Detention, Sealing, Sentencing, and Interrogation.' You wouldn't happen to specialize in the execution part, would you?"

As she spoke, Fu Xuan paused, then continued: "Then, in order to complete the task, please, Judge, turn a blind eye and leave the duty of showing mercy to my people."

"Your people?"

Hearing Fu Xuan's words, Hearing Xue Yi frowned.

In the current Divination Commission, every single diviner was busy to the point of exhaustion; where would Fu Xuan get people from?

"Look."

Fu Xuan looked toward the direction of Hearing Qing Que and the others who were approaching: "Aren't they here now?"

"Guest Lin Mo, Dragon Lady Bai Lu."

Hearing Fu Xuan's words, Hearing Xue Yi turned her head instinctively. At a single glance, she saw Lin Mo and the others approaching and immediately greeted them with a look of surprise.

She truly had not expected to encounter Lin Mo here.

"Alright, Cheng Cheng Jie."

Hearing Qing Que turned to look at Cheng Cheng Jie: "Tell your request to this Judge from the Ten-Lords Commission."

Hearing Hearing Qing Que's words, Cheng Cheng Jie swallowed hard and gathered his courage to step forward.

As a Xianzhou native, there was no one who didn't fear the Ten-Lords Commission.

Especially when facing a Judge of the Ten-Lords Commission directly!

If it weren't for Guest Lin Mo behind him, he would have almost knelt down entirely.

Hearing Hearing Qing Que's words, Hearing Xue Yi raised an eyebrow and looked at Cheng Cheng Jie.

This kid wanted to find her?

What kind of matter could warrant Guest Lin Mo accompanying him?

"It, it is like this."

At this moment, Cheng Cheng Jie forced himself to stay calm and explained his needs, the beginning and end of the matter, and his hope for Hearing Xue Yi's help.

"I, I want to speak with my late teacher, Ryan. Please, Master Diviner, please, Judge, help me."

By the end, Cheng Cheng Jie was pleading very earnestly.

After listening to Cheng Cheng Jie, Hearing Xue Yi frowned and said: "According to the laws of the Ten-Lords Commission, once a soul enters the Hall of Karma, it may not return to the world of the living."

If everyone were like Cheng Cheng Jie, wouldn't everything fall into chaos?

Hearing Hearing Xue Yi's words, Cheng Cheng Jie's face turned pale in an instant.

The Judge of the Ten-Lords Commission did not agree to this.

Did that mean he wouldn't be able to see his Master?

"However, orders have their urgency, and matters have their priorities."

The next second, Hearing Xue Yi changed her tone. She glanced at Lin Mo, then looked at Cheng Cheng Jie and said slowly: "As a Judge of the Ten-Lords Commission, I have the authority to act with discretion. It is not impossible for me to make an exception?"

· ·Seeking flowers· ······

Since Guest Lin Mo had come along, it was not impossible to make an exception for this matter.

She didn't even need to ask.

Cheng Cheng Jie, who had been dejected and pale, saw his eyes suddenly burst with dazzling light upon hearing Hearing Xue Yi's words, and he became excited.

It was actually possible!

For a moment, Cheng Cheng Jie looked at Lin Mo with excitement.

He knew it must be because the Judge of the Ten-Lords Commission was giving face to Guest Lin Mo.

For a moment, Cheng Cheng Jie was filled with gratitude toward Lin Mo.

"However, before that, I still need your help with something."

The next second, Hearing Xue Yi turned her gaze toward Hearing Qing Que and Hearing Su Shang: "The two of you—one a Cloud Knight, one a Diviner of the Divination Commission—can join forces to help my Ten-Lords Commission capture some escaped prisoners."

"Because of the Ambrosial Arbor eruption and the Stellaron crisis, many prisoners escaped not long ago."

"However, these prisoners all have trackers on them. My Ten-Lords Commission is currently busy and lacks manpower, so I will provide you with a list of fugitives to capture."

"There are criminals running loose in Aurum Alley; bring them back alive, and then we shall discuss the matter of returning to the living."

"I believe that with a Diviner and the cooperation of the Cloud Knights, it will be very convenient for you to capture them."

Hearing Su Shang: "??????"

Hearing Qing Que: "???????"

Hearing Hearing Xue Yi's words, Hearing Qing Que and Hearing Su Shang widened their eyes, wearing expressions as if they had seen a ghost.

Had they just been press-ganged by the Ten-Lords Commission?

"No, don't."

For a moment, Hearing Qing Que wailed: "I don't want to face those heinous fugitives."

One had to know, the fugitives captured by the Ten-Lords Commission were certainly not ordinary criminals.

Ordinary criminals wouldn't have lists of them running around.

She was just a very weak Diviner of the Divination Commission.

Did she really have to participate in such an activity?

If she didn't capture them, would it affect Cheng Cheng Jie's Master?

For a moment, Hearing Qing Que deeply felt the sensation of lifting a rock only to drop it on her own feet.

If she had known, she wouldn't have come to help Cheng Cheng Jie.

Then she wouldn't have been press-ganged by the Judge of the Ten-Lords Commission. **CHAPTER 690**
