After speaking, a flash of golden light.
Lin Junxian was struck hard and flew backwards, crashing onto the spear handle!
Under the powerful force, the spear handle pierced his armor and brutally stabbed through his right abdon, pinning him back onto the wall!
"Puff!"
Lin Junxian spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, the intense pain nearly causing him to pass out!
The scene was silent and still.
Everyone stared dumbfounded at this scene, so unable to believe it.
Chu Yanli didn’t care about their gazes, she ca to Chen Mo and scrutinized him, "I didn’t expect you have so skills, to make the Three Departnts nod simultaneously. No wonder you’re so unyielding before ."
"Daring to wield a blade in the Prince Mansion, you have quite the courage. Aren’t you afraid that soone from Qianji Palace will trouble you?"
Chen Mo replied earnestly, "A prince who breaks the law is punished the sa as a commoner, I enforce the law impartially, what’s there to fear?"
Upon hearing this, a gleam flashed in Chu Yanli’s eyes, her lips curved, "Alright, I’ll rember those words. Since that’s the case, I hope you can stay firm to the end, don’t soften halfway."
"..."
Li Yuan and Qiu Longgang exchanged a glance, why did those words sound a bit odd?
Lin Junxian’s eyelids twitched.
These two keep talking about enforcing the law impartially, yet my kidneys have been repeatedly stabbed, isn’t this intentional injury?
Am I really considered a person...
However, Chen Mo clearly has a close relationship with the Princess, it was his mistake to misjudge the situation, he hung his head and dared not say a word more.
"Speaking of which..."
Chu Yanli pondered, "Even if you capture him and take him back to the Imperial Prison, you only have the power to interrogate, convicting him won’t be so simple."
Chen Mo naturally understood this principle.
The saying "a king and the commoner are equal under the law" is ultimately just empty talk.
In Da Yuan Law, it clearly stipulates an "Eight Deliberations" system, naly: relatives, elders, sages, capable, ritorious, prestigious, diligent, guests.
When these eight types of people commit cris, either the emperor decides or the punishnt is mitigated.
As a mber of the Imperial Family, Chu Heng belongs to "Deliberation of Relatives" and "Deliberation of Prestige", having double BUFF.
The Sky Scale Guard can’t directly convict and sentence, it requires the consensus of all officials, finally the Qianji Palace sets the cri.
Generally, the cri will be reduced one level, sotis even exempted.
But if suspected of rebellion and betrayal, the "Eight Deliberations" rule does not apply... In other words, he must find concrete evidence of Chu Heng secretly allying with the Demon Clan, otherwise capturing him is in vain.
This is why the docunts from the Three Departnts only ntion "suspected rebellion", without listing other cris, because listing them ans nothing.
Chu Yanli blinked and laughed, "I can help you resolve this matter, the terms I ntioned last ti are still effective, you might want to consider it."
"..."
Chen Mo knew what she had in mind, he was about to refuse when Chu Yanli seed to sense sothing.
"This is..."
She furrowed her dark brows and leaned in closer, then stretched out her soft hand to press on Chen Mo’s chest.
"Roar!"
The tiger phantom on Chen Mo’s chest seed to be stimulated, roaring and erging from his body.
"Sure enough, it’s about to break through."
Looking at the colorful tiger, Chu Yanli lost focus montarily, sighed lightly, and said, "Alright, it seems we’re destined, consider this my greeting gift to you."
In the next mont, Chen Mo felt a surge of heat flow into his chest.
Text flashed before his eyes:
[Absorb Blood Evil Qi, Soldier Control Seal·Refining Body (1000/1000).]
["Soldier Control Seal·Refining Body" evolves into "Soldier Control Seal·Array Formation".]
At the sa ti, a silver glow spread from his chest, quickly covering his body, reflecting sunlight with a tallic sheen, like a sword unsheathed.
Then it completely vanished.
The tiger phantom on his chest beca more solid.
Chen Mo could clearly sense an intense aura within him.
Unlike True Yuan and Dao Power, it contained fierce tyranny and destruction, yet this Evil Qi was controllable, causing no harm to himself, flowing slowly like rcury in his ridians.
"So-called soldier control consists of Refining, Array Formation, True Martial Arts, three stages."
"Now you’ve just begun, ’Blood Evil’ is refined into ’Soldier Evil’, continuously refining the body as if casting a weapon, until the body becos a divine weapon that can cut tal and stone..."
Countless insights surged to his mind.
Chen Mo looked down at his hands, his fingertips moved slightly, dozens of swords and blades on the ground jumped simultaneously!
This feeling of perfect control was indescribable, as if he was the true master of these weapons!
"How does it feel? Do you like it?"
Chu Yanli asked with a smile.
For so reason, Chen Mo felt her gaze towards him had beco inexplicably kinder.
He pondered for a mont and asked, "If I may boldly ask, who was the previous master of this Soldier Control Seal..."
"Dead, you don’t need to know her na, since the Military Dao Xuan Su chose you, there must be a reason."
Chu Yanli’s eyes glowed with gold as she spoke softly, "Rember what I’ve told you, anything gained must be compensated, many things in the world are beyond you and ..."
Chen Mo sensed hidden aning in her words, he didn’t respond directly, and instead cupped his hands, "Thank you for the grace, Your Highness."
"No need for thanks, co to Changning Pavilion tonight, I have urgent matters to discuss with you." Chu Yanli said casually.
"..."
The Princess is not yet married, still residing in the inner court of the Imperial Palace, Changning Pavilion is her bedchamber.
No wonder she sent this Evil Qi, she was waiting for here?
What urgent matter must be discussed at night?
Could it be she wants to play the tyrant’s forceful approach!
Chen Mo’s mouth twitched, "I still have to interrogate the criminal, I’m afraid I won’t have ti..."
