Zongzheng’s face was extrely grave, and the aura of the Profound Realm burst open.
Under the imnse pressure.
Even if so people didn’t know who they were looking for, they could tell sothing significant was happening. At this ti, even if they didn’t understand, they dared not ask any more questions.
Search... that’s right.
...
Chen Xuan didn’t know any of the white-robed mbers of this team, but the one in gold was a middle-aged fat man, his body estimated to be over three hundred pounds.
The whole person was round.
However, his eyes were very small, making him look quite humorous.
But he was genuinely at the early-stage Profound Realm in strength.
"Ah, I didn’t expect to encounter such a thing just after coming back. If I’d known, I wouldn’t have returned."
The fat man was quite unwilling, but there was no choice.
With that attitude of Zongzheng, he’d be beaten to death if he dared to have any opinions.
After complaining, he looked at Chen Xuan and the five of them, "Don’t call sir, sir, I’m not used to it, just call Fatty... hmm... Brother Fat is fine too!"
Um—
"Heh, this person is truly casual!"
Chen Xuan chuckled in his heart.
Of course, the few white-robed mbers didn’t dare to call him that, so they shouted in unison, "Greetings, Brother Fat!"
"Alright, let’s go! The Eastern Domain is so big, who knows how many days it’s going to take!"
Saying this, he led the way, revealing his shaking flesh as he moved past Chen Xuan.
...
One day!
Only a small portion of the Eastern Domain was searched, at most just a tenth of it.
At nightfall, Brother Fat was already complaining about not being able to go on.
Search again tomorrow.
And so Chen Xuan and the others were sent back to their respective hos.
Back at Chen Mansion.
Chen Xuan went to the study.
After waiting for a long ti, Qin Ke finally arrived, and as soon as he entered the study, he poured out his grievances to Chen Xuan.
"Master... you don’t know, that one in gold is simply insane!"
"Without saying a word, just barged in directly!"
"No matter who it is, as long as there’s a slight oddity, they’re imdiately thrown into the dungeon!"
"Today alone, just sending those people to the dungeon, us white-robed ones have been back and forth over a hundred tis!"
"The Three Judicial Departnts’ dungeon is almost full!"
"Almost all were caught by us!"
Chen Xuan pointed to the chair next to him, "Sit down and talk slowly!"
"Pour yourself so tea!"
After he sat down, he added another sentence.
Qin Ke didn’t stand on ceremony, poured himself a full cup, and drank it all in one go.
Only then did he feel much better.
The whole day, his head buzzing.
Then he asked Chen Xuan, "Master, how about that Liu San?"
"Liu San?"
Chen Xuan’s expression was a bit odd.
"Yes, don’t you know his na?"
"Oh, right!"
Qin Ke nodded to himself, "He’s been away from rMolan Mansion for so years, just ca back these days."
It was only now that Chen Xuan understood.
Why they called him Brother Fat.
The na was indeed a bit hard to utter.
Liu San!
Good na!
"It’s alright, it’s just for show anyway, I quite like it, hadn’t even gotten dark and we were sent back."
Chen Xuan said slowly, and Liu San’s personality was sowhat similar to his, very laid-back.
"Master is really lucky!"
Qin Ke fell silent for a long ti, looking at him with envy.
"Alright, it’s not a big deal, it won’t take many more days to finish the search!"
Chen Xuan patted his shoulder, consoling him.
"Just afraid of not finding anything and having to continue again!"
Qin Ke said with a bitter face, very worried, and he had a feeling that Zongzheng would not give up easily.
Um—
Chen Xuan couldn’t respond to that. Finding is bound to happen; he just had no choice if the search continued.
...
After about ten days.
The whole city had been carpet-searched once, the dungeon of the Three Judicial Departnts was stuffed full, not a single space left.
Of course, the person... was definitely not found.
But quite a few wanted criminals from Great Yu were captured.
It was so gain indeed.
At this ti in the Three Judicial Departnts.
Zongzheng had a cold face, very dissatisfied.
And Qin Ke just quietly sat below, waiting for his orders.
"Are you sure no place was overlooked?"
Zongzheng looked at him, sowhat unwilling.
After spending so much manpower, tens of days, with the dungeon of the Three Judicial Departnts full, not only did they not catch the person, but they hadn’t even found a trace.
This result... he couldn’t accept.
"No! We’ve confird with those gold-robed ones several tis, and also asked the white-robed ones, not a single place was missed, even those big families’ mansions were all searched this ti."
Qin Ke replied in a deep voice.
Upon hearing this, Zongzheng’s brows furrowed deeply.
"Could it be that they’ve already left the rMolan Mansion?"
Guessing in his heart.
But....
How did this person know Tian Bo was a World Spirit, and even had ans to restrain a World Spirit?
"Could it be....?"
Zongzheng suddenly thought of it; it’s highly likely that that day, the person was nearby and heard his conversation with Tian Bo.
"Sly dog! Hid for so long before taking action!"
...
As expected, just as Qin Ke anticipated, Zongzheng wouldn’t give up so easily.
Thus, the second round of search comnced again.
With Liu San around, Chen Xuan didn’t mind; it just affected his cultivation a bit.
But... Qin Ke!
It was hard for him.
That gold-robed one was particularly strict, especially towards their white-robed group.
By the end of the day, the whole person was utterly exhausted.
Soon, the second search ended, and of course, the result was the sa.
Zongzheng listened to Qin Ke’s report, although unwilling in his heart, he could only accept this result helplessly.
Furthermore, the search couldn’t continue. Not only the white-robed and gold-robed ones had opinions.
The city also started to buzz with discussions.
Especially the ordinary people, they began to criticize the behavior of the Three Judicial Departnts as it had started to affect their normal lives.
