Chapter 2742: Ye Liuyun, the Inspector

Huo Ting'an turned his head and glanced at the Sixfold Sovereign Martial Cultivator, who immediately stepped forward and said, "Just because you haven't moved the place doesn't mean the people of your Space World or your comrades haven't moved."

"I advise you to come forward truthfully, to avoid flesh‑and‑blood suffering!"

Ye Liuyun heard this and retorted, "I was just staying peacefully in the inn, doing nothing. What is there to summon?"

"Yet you have no evidence, but act as if you've nailed me for stealing something."

"On what grounds?"

"On what grounds?"

The Martial Cultivator sneered lightly, contemptuously saying, "Just because my strength surpasses yours, and you are merely an outsider Mercenary."

"Even if I wronged you, your death would be in vain! So if you have any sense, you'd better recount how you committed the crime."

"Heh, you can't provoke every Mercenary! To frame me, you're not even qualified!"

Ye Liuyun spoke calmly, paying no heed to the Martial Cultivator's threat.

This made Huo Ting'an unable not to suspect that Ye Liuyun might have some background.

Otherwise, what qualification would a Zhuanzai Sanchong Martial Cultivator have to be so unflappable?

He had already sent someone to inquire of Xue Liang, learning that Ye Liuyun was no ordinary person—he had managed to defeat a Zhuanzai Wuchong Martial Cultivator and a fierce beast—so based on that, he thought Ye Liuyun should not be underestimated.

"Young Master Ye!"

Thus he spoke up and stopped that Martial Cultivator.

"Since Young Master Ye is upright and honest, why not let us send someone to enter your Space World for an inspection, how does that sound?"

"Rest assured, we will not touch any of your belongings; if we find no stolen goods, we will leave immediately."

"What do you think?"

"Otherwise, with such a big incident, I cannot refrain from investigating."

"But the suspicion on Young Master Ye is still huge."

"If we take action, it benefits no one."

"I think we should avoid using force if possible."

"What do you say?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Liuyun thought to himself, "If they enter my Space World, they'll surely be controlled by me! What is there to fear?"

But outwardly, he still pretended to be reluctant.

In the end he reluctantly agreed, but insisted that those entering must sign a Divine Soul Contract and not touch anything inside.

And the one Huo Ting'an sent was the Sixfold Sovereign Martial Cultivator from earlier.

He thought that someone of a lower realm entering would be controlled by Ye Liuyun.

Thus he sent a Sixfold Sovereign Martial Cultivator in, both to investigate and without worrying about a Zhuanzai Sanchong Realm Martial Cultivator like Ye Liuyun.

That Martial Cultivator, named Qiao Yu, after signing a Divine Soul Contract with Ye Liuyun, was taken into the Space World by Ye Liuyun.

Upon entering, he was immediately shocked by Ye Liuyun's Space World.

He hadn't imagined that a Zhuanzai Sanchong Martial Cultivator could possess such a vast Space World.

He was instantly restrained by Ye Liuyun's powerful Spatial Power, unable to move.

Then Ye Liuyun placed a Slave Seal on him and began a Soul Search to learn the information in his Sea of Consciousness.

It turned out Huo Ting'an had already instructed Qiao Yu to be cautious, as Ye Liuyun might belong to a powerful faction.

To check inside, and if everything is fine, to leave.

Moreover, Qiao Yu knew that most of Huo Ting'an's wealth was hidden within the Space World, and the thief cat had only taken a small portion.

Ye Liuyun searched Qiao Yu's Sea of Consciousness for memories of important figures and suddenly discovered that the Star Disk Empire has a position called Inspector, responsible for handling major dynastic cases, wielding great authority, even able to kill local officials outright.

Qiao Yu had once seen such an Inspector's Token.

Ye Liuyun immediately had Qiong Qi forge an Inspector's Token based on Qiao Yu's memory.

The token was simple: one side bore the shape of a Star Disk, the other side bore the character "Inspector".

Qiao Yu was then promptly released back by Ye Liuyun.

After leaving, Qiao Yu bowed to Ye Liuyun, which greatly surprised Huo Ting'an.

Then Qiao Yu used Transmission Voice to tell Huo Ting'an that within Ye Liuyun's Space World, he had seen the Inspector's Token.

Huo Ting'an was also startled, quickly rising to bow to Ye Liuyun.

But he asked, "Sir, why are you dressed in these clothes?"

"Just to make it easier for me to hide my whereabouts! Since you have all seen it, I no longer need to conceal anything from you."

"I came here to investigate that master thief!"

At that moment, Ye Liuyun also took out the freshly forged Token from Qiong Qi and waved it before Huo Ting'an's eyes.

Huo Ting'an had never seen such an Inspector's Token before, but after hearing Qiao Yu say so, he thought it must be correct.

"Please, Inspector, forgive me! I was negligent, I was negligent!"

Huo Ting'an also quickly apologized.

Ye Liuyun pretended to be helpless, saying, "Fine! My attire inevitably caused you to misunderstand! But you have ruined my major pursuit of the thief; if you hadn't captured me, he wouldn't have escaped."

"Yet if I hadn't come, I would have still disturbed him!"

"He is no longer in the city; no matter how you search, it will be in vain."

"This matter, I must report to the Empire."

"As for how the Empire will deal with you, just wait for the news!"

While speaking, Ye Liuyun, based on Qiao Yu's memory, fashioned a set of Inspector's official robes using gilded armor.

At that moment his entire demeanor changed, exuding an aloof, overbearing aura.

Huo Ting'an was startled, nearly kneeling directly before Ye Liuyun.

He has no real foundation in the Empire either; a single word from this Inspector Envoy could get his family confiscated and exterminated by the Empire directly.

The Empire's punishment measures for these officials are indeed very severe.

Qiao Yu also followed Ye Liuyun's instructions at this time, reminding Huo Ting'an: 'City Lord, you must definitely keep the Inspector Envoy; as long as he stays, there is still a chance.'

Even if you have to bring out all your resources, it's worth it!

'Yes, yes.'

Huo Ting'an quickly replied.

At the same time he also suggested to Ye Liuyun: 'Inspector Ye, since the thieves are no longer in the city, please let me do my duty as host and go after them again.'

I will also gather all the experts in the city here and cooperate with you to capture the thieves.

After all, many hands make light work! It's also much easier than you going after them alone.

Ye Liuyun first pretended to frown, but hearing that many hands make light work, he deliberately hesitated a moment.

Then he also said: 'Alright, quickly gather the capable people in the city.'

Those thieves' methods are indeed unusual, very hard to deal with!

He also found a reasonable excuse for himself to stay.

Thus Huo Ting'an, on one hand, arranged people to set up a banquet, and on the other hand had Qiao Yu arrange to summon all the martial cultivators who dominate the Fifth and Sixth Layer Realm in the city to report to the City Lord's mansion.

Huo Ting'an also took this opportunity to discuss with Ye Liuyun not to report this matter to the Empire.

'You know fear now?'

'As a local official, you arbitrarily arrest people and abuse private punishment, truly lawless!'

Ye Liuyun certainly won't let him off easily; he won't rest until he extorts him.

Upon hearing these charges, Huo Ting'an knew that if this were reported, he would surely have no good outcome.
