Chu Xisheng, with a forced smile, cupped his hands together slightly, his words tinged with an apology, “I had intended to help you two intercept this crazed assassin, but unfortunately, my spirit pet made a slight mistake, allowing the assassin to escape.
Please forgive us.”
The two Daoists from the Chu family, however, were unable to suppress their anger.
The man in front of them was treating them like fools!
Was that Five-tailed Wind Beast intercepting the assassin?
It was clearly blocking them!
Moreover, this man had several followers, and their cultivation was not weak either.
Even if the Five-tailed Wind Beast had slipped up, these people could have taken action to intercept, but they just stood there, motionless!
In addition, Chu Xisheng’s subordinates seed to be deliberately or inadvertently blocking every gap in the entire corridor.
The Five-tailed Wind Beast continued to lock them down with a force of Divine Intent.
One of the older Daoists pointed his sword at Chu Xisheng and his followers, his gaze sharp and his aura chilling, “Stand aside!
That person is a criminal wanted by the Ministry of Justice for nearly a year, ranked three hundred seventy-two on the Ministry’s Black List.
Are you intentionally obstructing us to assist the assassin, colluding with the fugitive?”
Lu Luanti slightly raised her eyebrows and imdiately took out a copy of “Debating Martial Arts” from her sleeve to check.
She soon found the Ministry of Justice’s Black List and located the person ranked three hundred seventy-two.
‘Iron-faced Judge’ Luo Yang—originally a house guard of the seventh seat in the main branch of the Western Capital Chu family, thirty-two years old, Fourth Grade cultivation.
A year ago, he defected from the Western Capital Chu family, wreaked havoc in the Capital City and Heluo, killed nurous civilians, assassinated court officials, hence he was wanted, with a bounty of 150,000 taels of Demon Silver.
The expression on Chu Xisheng’s face imdiately darkened.
He looked displeased and placed his hand on the hilt of his sword, “I don’t like what you’re implying.
Which of your eyes saw colluding with the assassin?
What proof do you have?
You think you can arrest and accuse ?
Make your intentions clear, or none of you will get past here today.”
The two Daoists frowned deeply, seeing that the ‘Iron-faced Judge’ Luo Yang’s presence was growing fainter, already disappearing into the stairwell ahead, vanishing completely into the black fog, untraceable.
“It seems you wish to die!”
The slightly younger Daoist was furious, stepping forward with his sword glittering coldly, “Offending the Western Capital Chu family, no one escapes without paying a price.”
However, he restrained the impulse to strike imdiately.
The Five-tailed Wind Beast had the sa Sixth Grade cultivation as them, but its combat power was far superior to theirs.
Chu Xisheng himself, capable of defeating Chu Ming, was also very formidable.
The two of them dared to pursue the ‘Iron-faced Judge’ Luo Yang, not because they were capable to contend with Luo Yang in combat, but because he had been severely wounded by ‘Tiger Roar Dragon Soar’ Long Heihu, nearly to the point of death.
If they really started fighting, the two of them, being overmatched, were likely to embarrass themselves.
“Then I really want to know, what price can you make pay?”
Chu Xisheng’s expression grew even colder as he scoffed, “I’d like to ask Chu Ming, before she even joined the Formless Divine Sect, was she planning to use her status as the young miss of the Western Capital Chu family to lord over her fellow sect brothers?”
“How dare you!”
The two Daoists suddenly held their breath, their complexions slightly changed.
They actually hadn’t taken this ‘Blood Vengeance Candidate’ seriously at all.
A re Shenxiu’s Ten Outstanding Sabers seventh seat, ranking ninety-first on the Qingyun General List, might sound impressive but was in reality scoffed at by the true noble families,
The Qingyun General List was frequently updated, each year seeing two to three hundred geniuses erge, only to then be subrged in the tide, disappearing without a trace.
This Chu Xisheng was rely one among them.
Even though he defeated Chu Ming with forty-four strikes, they did not take it to heart.
In their view, Chu Ming’s rapid defeat was rely due to a lack of combat experience, fooled by this man’s tactics,
It didn’t an that Chu Xisheng’s combat power was superior to their young miss.
It’s said that this man was also the Flag Leader of the East State Iron Banner Gang.
However, a re local gang, in front of the Western Capital Chu family, was nothing to speak of.
Any of the nineteen house guards from the fourth branch of the Chu family could easily obliterate this Iron Banner Gang.
Not to ntion their Family Head held the position of Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, directly overseeing all Jianghu forces.
The two Daoists were primarily concerned that their actions could damage Chu Ming’s reputation within the Formless Divine Sect, hindering her from becoming the ‘Blood Vengeance Saint’.
Before they left, the housekeeper of the Chu family repeatedly instructed them, emphasizing that they must prioritize Chu Ming’s future prospectsabove all else.
Whether Chu Ming could secure the ‘Blood Vengeance Holy Transmission’ was tied to the rise and fall of the Western Capital Chu family, and the future of the Chu family’s fourth branch, absolutely nothing could go wrong.
“Enough!”
Just as the two were hesitating, a hoarse voice reached them.
Subsequently, two powerful Qi Yuan, one dragon and one tiger, converged from the left and right sides of the front corridor, finally condensing five feet in front of Chu Xisheng into a burly middle-aged man with a slightly pallid complexion.
His eyes glittered sharply, and with a cold deanor, he scrutinized Chu Xisheng, “Are you treating us as if we are blind, unable to see that you are obstructing us and allowing the felon to escape?
You keep saying that our young miss is flaunting her status, but aren’t your actions disregarding the camaraderie among fellow disciples?”
Chu Xisheng narrowed his eyes when he heard this.
He knew that this burly middle-aged man was indeed ‘Tiger Roar Dragon Soar’ Long Heihu!
