Chapter 793: Chapter 7: Earthshaker Flying Sword, Wrath of Thunder (6000 )_4
At that ti, Hao Yi was almost invincible in the sa realm, with Shi Caiming, the Martial Arts Master, overseeing him, making it exceedingly difficult to deal with.
Eventually, the Lu Family sent people to find Qi Jin and through trading with Westerners, acquired the Star Stone, which they provided to Qi Jin.
“The Lu Family again!”
Li Fei gritted his teeth.
He had initially found in the archives at Wu’an University that when Hao Yi made his breakthrough, many nobles from Datong Prefecture dispatched experts to stop him, but none were from the Lu Family.
Even Hao Yi himself believed that the ultimate failure of his breakthrough was due to the interference of those experts who ca to stop him.
He never considered other possibilities.
After all, the ‘Star Entering Life Technique’ was extrely covert!
“No wonder the Lu Family conspired with Xu Jing so early on.”
Li Fei suddenly understood a lot.
“Lord He, I owe it to you for completely unraveling the truth of those past events!”
Li Fei bowed to He Jian.
After Li Fei handed Qi Jin over to the Monitoring Pavilion, the pavilion invited a True Master from the Righteous Law Pavilion to dismantle the oath technique on him.
Ultimately, the oath technique was successfully dismantled, and Qi Jin was subjected to torture, revealing many secrets.
However, regarding the dealings with Martial Arts Secret Manuals and Deni Country, all evidence and clues stopped at the Zhao Family, and those who directly interacted with Qi Jin were all Zhao Family mbers, making it impossible to implicate the Lu Family.
But He Jian did not give up interrogating Qi Jin, ticulously questioning various details from start to finish, eventually extracting crucial information!
He Jian’s intention was to find any other connections between Qi Jin and the Lu Family, thereby uncovering clues of transactions between the Lu Family and Deni Country.
His interrogation skills were outstanding, coupled with his reputation as ‘You He,’ with keen insight, he finally managed to pry out the truth about Hao Yi’s past little by little from Qi Jin.
After being tricked into speaking by He Jian, Qi Jin decided to go all out.
Anyway, the cris he committed were enough for him to be shot ten tis, he didn’t mind admitting to one more charge.
“This affair happened so long ago that witnesses and evidence are nearly impossible to find. Plus, the Lu Family would have erased traces from back then once they knew he was captured. Moreover, Hao Yi was not an official then, so even if this matter is confird, it wouldn’t affect the Lu Family much.”
He Jian said to Li Fei, “But when you want to re-investigate Shangguan Xiao’s case in the future, this person’s testimony might be of so use.”
Qi Jin, lying on the ground, brightened at these words and hurriedly said:
“Yes, I’m willing to testify! I’m willing to identify the Lu Family for Marquis Jing’an!”
Even if he ultimately can’t escape death, living for a mont is still sothing.
If Li Fei agrees to let him identify the Lu Family in the future, then he can at least live a little longer.
Li Fei showed no emotion at these words but simply asked He Jian:
“Has this person’s testimony been officially recorded?”
He Jian nodded: “It has been recorded, and witnessed by other officials of the Monitoring Pavilion, making it valid.”
Li Fei spoke with a cold tone: “That’s good.”
After speaking, he turned and looked outside the jail, loudly shouting:
“Soone co!”
Monts later, the sound of footsteps was heard.
A Monitoring Bureau Official responsible for the entire dungeon approached this cell:
“Does Marquis Jing’an have any matters?”
Li Fei bowed respectfully to him: “Sir, I’d like to know the final verdict for this person.”
The official glanced at Qi Jin: “The final verdict will wait until we hand him over to the Judicial Pavilion, but with what he’s committed, it’s surely a gun technique!”
Li Fei expressed no emotion: “Aside from the gun technique, is there no harsher punishnt?”
The official hesitated, looking into Li Fei’s eyes: “What does Marquis Jing’an wish for the verdict to be?”
“Lingchi execution, death by a thousand cuts!”
Li Fei spoke decisively, one word at a ti.
Behind him, Qi Jin’s body trembled, he was about to speak, but was suppressed by a powerful force, unable to move.
In these days, the Emperor was benevolent, so at the Judicial Pavilion, severe punishnts were rarely imposed.
The official standing before Li Fei hesitated for a mont, then spoke:
“…I have good relations with a Great Judge at the Judicial Pavilion, plus Marquis Jing’an’s influence, I think it shouldn’t be difficult.”
“Excellent, how may I address you, sir?”
“I am Zheng Jun.”
“Lord Zheng, I’ll rely on you for this matter. Once accomplished, I promise great rewards!”
“Marquis Jing’an, you are too courteous.”
Zheng Jun smiled.
Monts later, Li Fei left the dungeon and returned to his office building at the Monitoring Pavilion headquarters.
He picked up the phone and dialed a number.
A few seconds later, a voice answered from the other end:
“Who is speaking?”
“Lord Bian, it’s Li Fei.”
“Marquis Jing’an?”
Bian Jingru on the other end sounded pleasantly surprised, “I’ve received the news about the Grand Assembly, congratulations!”
Li Fei wasn’t in the mood for small talk and directly stated:
“Lord Bian, you broke ties with the Provincial City two years ago, over the past couple of years, you should have quite a bit of evidence against them, right?”
Bian Jingru hesitated, sensing sothing amiss in Li Fei’s tone, cautiously asking:
“Are you planning to take action against the Provincial City?”
“Yes.”
“…Isn’t it a bit rushed to act now? You’ve just been promoted, if this gets out, people might accuse you of abusing your power.”
“It’s fine, having taken so many hits, it’s ti to fight back.”
“Well then, since you asked, I’ll fully cooperate!”
“…”
A thousand miles away, Bian Jingru put down the phone, feeling a mix of emotions.
He had no idea what prompted Li Fei to suddenly decide to retaliate.
But now, in the collaboration between him and Li Fei, the leading role had already shifted.
Since Li Fei decided to act, he could only fully cooperate.
Bian Jingru went to the window and looked at the sky outside, shaking his head:
“The sky over Feng Province is about to change!”
