"You should be aware of the prince’s temperant."
Long Da spoke slowly, a faint smile appearing on his face.
"Agreed!"
Zong Peng had no hesitation and imdiately agreed.
He had a spot for the Burial Ground!
Given to him by Elder Zhan.
But Zongzheng didn’t, so for his only brother, it was either do or die.
"Then trouble Director Zong to lock down the city imdiately!"
"Alright!"
...
Taking favors to resolve others’ problems, Zong Peng was quite suitable for this.
He promptly mobilized all the chief constables from the Three Judicial Departnts to seal the four city gates.
The reason given was that a depraved demon was trying to slip into the city, thus from today, everyone had to be searched to enter or exit.
Though many had complaints, after all, this was about a depraved demon, no joke.
And all the chief constables of the Three Judicial Departnts were stern-faced, allowing no room for negotiation.
Ultimately, no one dared to act rashly and obediently cooperated.
At the East Gate entrance.
Chen Xuan had a very bad feeling.
He suddenly received the Three Judicial Departnts’ order to guard the East City Gate.
And it was all to cooperate with the two black-clad n in front of him.
Coincidentally, they were the sa ones who inspected Chen Xuan’s Mansion that day.
"Sir, what exactly is going on?"
Wang Man, who was already late-stage Immortal Grade, craned his head and asked softly.
"I don’t know!"
Chen Xuan shook his head, but his expression was sowhat grave.
Until dark!
Anyone entering or exiting the East City Gate, besides ordinary people, any martial artist would be interrogated by these two black-clad n.
And they utilized spiritual power.
"I’ll head back first. You five organize yourselves, split into two groups, take turns, report to if there are any issues!"
"Yes, sir!"
The five replied in unison.
But just as Chen Xuan was about to leave, one of the black-clad n spoke up, his tone very rude,
"You from the Three Judicial Departnts are supposed to fully cooperate with us, and as the head of the Eastern Domain Three Judicial Departnts, you just leave like this?"
Chen Xuan turned around, staring at him coldly.
The bastard, it was him last ti too!
With a lewd look and an arrogant deanor.
Sooner or later, I’ll find an opportunity to kill him, he’s really damn annoying.
"Should I sleep here with you then?"
"You!"
The man was instantly furious, pointing at Chen Xuan, "A re white-clad, in the Imperial City I could kill you with one slap!"
"Boom!"
A late-stage Immortal Grade aura, nearly reaching the Profound Realm, suddenly erupted, sending an overwhelming pressure towards the man.
"Bang!"
Under this pressure, the man’s knees buckled directly, even shattering the blue stones on the ground.
"Ah...."
The man let out a painful sound, he was just a spirit cultivator, his body was not even comparable to so third-grade martial artists.
"What are you doing? Stop! Let’s talk it out!"
The other black-clad man panicked and hastily said, but his tone was much more conciliatory.
"Humph!"
Chen Xuan snorted coldly, then restrained his aura.
"Huff huff huff..."
The man panted heavily, being helped up, his gaze towards Chen Xuan turned wary.
Unexpected... with just a disagreent, he took action.
Completely without any regard!
"This is just a warning, don’t bla for being rude next ti, no matter whose man you are!"
Chen Xuan’s cold stare made the man’s heart tremble.
He didn’t doubt his words at all.
And Wang Man and the others were stifling their laughter, especially him, looking teasingly at the two n.
Really bold, even if a spirit cultivator, it’s just at the early stage of Immortal Grade, knowing full well the sir is almost at the Profound Realm.
Until Chen Xuan left, the man’s gaze turned sinister.
Glancing over the five of the Eastern Domain Three Judicial Departnts.
But he was directly ignored.
In their eyes, this person was no different from a clown.
"Alright, the important thing is priority, we’ll talk about this later!"
The other man advised softly.
...
Leaving the East Gate, Chen Xuan initially wanted to find Qin Ke, but he hadn’t returned.
So he went to the study.
He waited until late at night.
"Master, there’s trouble!"
Upon entering the study, he spoke imdiately.
He even forgot to bow.
Instantly Chen Xuan knew this matter wasn’t simple.
"Sit, speak slowly, the sky isn’t falling!"
He pointed to a chair beside him.
With a slight nod, he sat down and hurriedly said, "Today, soone from the Imperial Family ca to the Three Judicial Departnts, spoke with Lord Zong Peng, and then Lord Zongzheng gave the order to begin the lockdown!"
"According to my guess... they might have received news that Ning Family mbers are in the city."
After finishing, he looked worriedly at Chen Xuan.
He had always had a vague suspicion in his heart.
And he believed there should be no mistake.
So after learning this news, he was anxious to co back and tell Chen Xuan, but Zongzheng had assigned the task to him this ti.
So he was busy until now, and once he returned, he ca directly to the study.
Because he knew that his master would surely be waiting for him here.
"I see!"
Chen Xuan said blandly, but his expression beca heavy.
He had guessed beforehand.
It probably had sothing to do with Qin Ying, and looking at it now, it seed the people sent to the Imperial City had returned.
And the answer given by the Star Hall Master was that the Ning Family was in the city, which led to today’s events.
"Incredible!"
Chen Xuan was shocked in his heart by the tactics of this Hall Master.
"Master, what should we do now?"
Qin Ke asked softly.
"You don’t need to worry, just do what you need to, the rest... don’t worry about it!"
Even if they knew, so what? Ning Xin and the others were no longer the sa as when they were on Huaining Island, especially the two youngsters.
They were no different from adults now.
And their identities definitely had no issues.
Even if they stood right in front of them, could they find them?
"But I heard this ti the Imperial Family has made full preparations, they won’t stop until they find them!"
Qin Ke looked very worriedly at Chen Xuan.
