Starting From The Equal Opportunity To Become A Saint

261. Chapter 261 Please Come To The Door!

In front of the Hall of Law Enforcement, a group of people stood by, pointing and whispering.

Although Wu Kai was acquitted, his reputation among the outer and inner disciples was completely ruined.

At least for the time being, he couldn't shake off the reputation of killing fellow disciples and bullying the weak.

Even if the Hall of Law Enforcement could prove his innocence, people would rather believe the gossip they heard.

This can be seen from the disdainful eyes of the onlookers towards him.

Wu Kai's gaze was cold as he scanned the disciples who looked at him like a monkey. The anger in his heart continued to accumulate and was becoming difficult to suppress.

"Oh, isn't this our Chief Wu?"

"Such great skill! To commit such a heinous act and still be able to walk out of the Hall of Law Enforcement alive, I admire you!"

"Wu Kai, you probably don't know who Tang Dahai is, do you? How dare you lay a hand on him?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, I used to consider you as the biggest competitor for this promotion to the true disciple, but now it seems that I overestimated you!"

"..."

Several inner disciples who usually didn't have much conflict with Wu Kai walked out from the crowd and openly mocked him.

Zhao Yi, Sun Zishan, Wang Chuanxin, Wang Chuanwu.

Wu Kai clenched his teeth, tightly gripped his fists, and looked at each of these four people, silently reciting their names in his heart.

He knew that the sudden appearance of so many disciples watching in front of the usually deserted Hall of Law Enforcement must have been caused by these four.

These four were his biggest competitors for this promotion to the true disciple. Now that they saw him in trouble, they couldn't wait to come and kick him while he was down.

"Whether I am innocent or not, the Hall of Law Enforcement will make a fair judgment. If you think there is a conspiracy or unfair treatment, you can go to the Elder's Court or the Azure Cloud Hall to complain!"

Wu Kai took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the anger in his chest. His gaze coldly swept over the faces of the four people and said in a low voice,

"Also, don't let me find out that you four are involved in framing me this time, otherwise, my immortal sword in Wu's hands won't spare you!"

The four of them all heard the cold killing intent hidden in Wu Kai's calm tone, but they didn't care at all. They even laughed out loud after exchanging glances.

If they were really afraid or wary of Wu Kai, they wouldn't have come to watch his jokes today and mock him face to face.

"Wu Kai, don't you think that you have offended too many people in the past, so you are deliberately targeted?" Sun Zishan took a step forward, lowered his voice, and said to Wu Kai,

"And, whether you are the killer who killed Tang Dahai is still debatable. Although the Hall of Law Enforcement's Heart-Questioning Formation is powerful, there are still ways to avoid it!"

"You should first solve your own troubles before worrying about other things!"

"As a former fellow disciple, I kindly remind you that Tang Dahai is the uncle of Tang Ziyin, the chief true disciple of the Azure Cloud Peak, and they have a close blood relationship!"

Wu Kai was shocked when he heard this. Is this a mistake?

Tang Ziyin, the chief true disciple of the Azure Cloud Immortal Sect, is actually the niece of that old Tang Dahai?!

If Tang Dahai had such a powerful backing, how could he have stayed in the Menial Hall as a lowly servant all this time?

"How about that? Didn't expect it, did you?" Sun Zishan laughed even more happily when he saw a hint of doubt in Wu Kai's eyes. He continued to provoke,

"Even our Peak Master was stunned for a long time when he heard this news."

"If Tang Ziyin hadn't come to the Hall of Law Enforcement yesterday to claim Tang Dahai's body in person, this secret might still not be known to anyone!"

At this moment, Zhao Yi also chimed in with a gloating tone,

"Also, let me tell you one more thing!"

"That is, when Tang Ziyin came to collect Tang Dahai's body yesterday, she openly stated that although her uncle had been expelled from the Tang family long ago, he is still her uncle, connected by blood."

"Next, she is determined to expose the true culprit who killed her second uncle and personally kill them to avenge her second uncle!"

"And you, Chief Wu, as the number one suspect in this matter, your days ahead will not be easy!"

Zhao Yi's words cast another layer of gloom over Wu Kai's already not-so-beautiful mood.

Damn it!

Why is luck so bad?

He was framed for killing a fellow disciple, missed the opportunity to break through and advance to the true transmission, and now it has even implicated the Chief of the main peak's true transmission!

In the Hall of Law Enforcement, everyone still pays attention to evidence. As long as they pass the questioning of the Heart-Asking Formation, they can basically pass safely.

But in private, Tang Ziyin would never talk to him about rules and evidence. If things go wrong, it is even possible to directly search his soul!

"Wu Kai, don't linger in front of the Hall of Law Enforcement, come to Autumn Maple Residence quickly!"

At this moment, a majestic and solemn soul transmission suddenly sounded in Wu Kai's ears.

"Master?!"

Wu Kai's eyes lit up as if he had found a savior. He no longer paid attention to Zhao Yi, Sun Zishan, and others in front of him. He flew up directly and quickly rushed to Autumn Maple Residence where his master was.

Now, only his master Ji Changming in the inner sect can protect him.

Ji Changming is not only an elder in the inner sect, but also the peak master of the same sect. Whether it is strength or status, he is outstanding in the entire Cui Zhu Peak.

If there is anyone that Wu Kai can rely on now, it is only his master in the inner sect!

Swish!

In just a moment, Wu Kai flew to Autumn Maple Residence, entered the inner courtyard, and saw Ji Changming sitting calmly on the bamboo chair in the pavilion in the courtyard. He immediately went forward and bowed respectfully.

"Greetings, Master!"

Ji Changming responded lightly, slowly raised his head to glance at Wu Kai, and said in a calm voice,

"Do you know that you have caused a great disaster this time?"

Wu Kai's heart trembled, and he knelt down with a thud, hurriedly defending himself,

"Master, I have been wronged!"

"Disciple has never killed Tang Dahai, let alone any reason to kill him!"

Ji Changming's gaze lingered on Wu Kai for a moment, nodding slightly,

"Get up, for the teacher also believes that you are not that foolish, otherwise you wouldn't have passed the Heart-Asking Formation in the Hall of Law Enforcement!"

Indeed, the Heart-Asking Formation is a reliable method, but with Wu Kai's current cultivation level, it is not even worth considering.

Therefore, Ji Changming did not doubt Wu Kai's innocence, but now that the true transmission chief of Qingyun Main Peak has been implicated, the problem has become complicated all of a sudden.

"For now, just stay in Autumn Maple Residence and cultivate in seclusion. With the teacher here, Tang Ziyin won't dare to act recklessly!"

"As for the true culprit who attacked Tang Dahai, the teacher will also have someone investigate secretly, hoping to resolve the misunderstanding between you and Tang Ziyin as soon as possible!"

Thud!

Wu Kai knelt down again, continuously kowtowing to express his gratitude to his master.

"That's enough, you may leave now!"

Ji Changming waved his hand at him, dismissing Wu Kai.

"Ah, I thought another true transmission disciple would emerge from my sect, but I didn't expect such trouble to occur at this critical moment!"

Watching Wu Kai's departing figure, Ji Changming couldn't help but shake his head and sigh softly.

Regardless of whose calculation this was, the other party has undoubtedly succeeded.

At least this year's quota for advancing to the true transmission is now out of reach for Wu Kai.

Library.

Liu Zimo also heard from the outer disciples who came to the library to borrow books that Wu Kai had been released from the Law Enforcement Hall.

However, there was no ripple in his heart.

Not only because he learned that Wu Kai was already in trouble and had his own concerns.

But also because his cultivation level had far surpassed Wu Kai's.

Even if Wu Kai investigated him in the end, Liu Zimo was confident that he could capture or kill him.

"It's a pity that after Wu Kai was released from the Law Enforcement Hall, his master called him to practice in seclusion. Otherwise, I wouldn't mind dealing with this security threat ahead of time!"

Sitting in the library, Liu Zimo watched the books in his hands and muttered to himself.

Waiting passively for the enemy to come knocking was never his style.

Compared to being passively beaten, Liu Zimo always preferred to eliminate all troubles at the source.

If it weren't for Wu Kai being protected by his master, Liu Zimo might have found Wu Kai's residence tonight and sent him to meet Tang Dahai and Wu Xuan.

Ordinary outer disciples were unaware of the matter regarding Tang Ziyun, the chief disciple of Qingyun Peak, so Liu Zimo had no way of hearing about it.

Otherwise, his hit list would definitely have one more name.

Bang!

Approaching noon.

The door of the library was rudely pushed open, making a loud noise that caused several outer disciples inside to look up.

Even Liu Zimo was startled by the sound of the door being slammed.

Then, he saw a dazzling golden light shining at the entrance, very eye-catching.

The light was three feet long, comparable to Ouyang Xinxin's.

"Which one of you is Liu Zimo? Step forward and let this young master have a look!"

A young face in his twenties stood arrogantly in front of the library, shouting loudly.

Seeing the purple waist badge hanging from his waist, it was clear that he was a true disciple of Qingyun Immortal Sect.

Many outer disciples quickly stood up and bowed to him.

Liu Zimo took the opportunity to focus his mind and directly locked onto the golden lock shadow above the other party's head.

[Binding successful! Your good brother Yue Zhixin is online, current bindable targets (18/1000)]

After successfully binding, Liu Zimo habitually clicked on the "!" symbol above the other party's head.

[Name] Yue Zhixin

[Age] 252

[Spirit Root] Top-grade Golden Spirit Root, Low-grade Earth Spirit Root

[Cultivation Level] Foundation Establishment Third Stage

[Cultivation Techniques] Golden Cicada Nine Transformations, Turtle Breath Dao Technique, Spirit Cultivation Technique...

"Foundation Establishment Third Stage?"

Liu Zimo shook his head slightly. This true disciple seemed a bit weak, with a cultivation level one level lower than his own.

But he wondered why the other party suddenly came to find him?

Liu Zimo was puzzled. He was just a peaceful library janitor, so why would a true disciple have him in mind?

And also, where did the librarian go?

At this moment, shouldn't the guardian of the books step forward to stop the other party from wantonly destroying the rules of the book pavilion?

"I'll ask again, who is Liu Zimo, come forward now!"

Yue Zhixin was clearly getting impatient, with a hint of anger in his eyes.

Hoping for the guardian to no avail, many outer disciples had already stood up to prove their identities.

Liu Zimo had no choice but to stand up from the corner, trembling, and said, "I... I am Liu Zimo. What does this immortal master want with me?"

"You?!" Yue Zhixin looked Liu Zimo up and down, showing a disdainful look.

"I didn't expect you to be a mere mortal with no cultivation at all!"

"It seems that you are not the thief!"

"However, since you didn't respond to me immediately, you need to be taught a lesson!"

As he spoke, Yue Zhixin raised his right hand and shot a stream of light directly at Liu Zimo's chest.

Seeing this, Liu Zimo's expression changed.

He never expected Yue Zhixin to be so bold as to attack him in the book pavilion!

What should he do next?

A casual strike from a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator would naturally pose no threat to Liu Zimo.

But now, his public image was that of a useless ordinary person.

Judging from the intensity of the spiritual power released by Yue Zhixin, an ordinary person would definitely have broken bones and be severely injured, if not dead!

If he were to rashly make a move or not be severely injured by Yue Zhixin's attack, it would undoubtedly expose his true cultivation level.

By then, not only would his public image be shattered, but his previous killings of Wu Xuan and Tang Dahai would most likely be exposed as well.

While Liu Zimo was calculating how to perfectly withstand Yue Zhixin's attack without revealing his true cultivation level, a breeze passed by in front of him.

Not only did it disperse the spiritual power released by Yue Zhixin, but it also sent the arrogant Yue Zhixin flying out of the book pavilion's gate.

"Ah~!"

Yue Zhixin screamed and fell to the ground, then "pu" sound, directly spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"The book pavilion is not a place for you to show off and bully the weak!"

"Considering that you are only a first-time offender and a disciple of the main peak, I will spare your life!"

"However, capital punishment can be forgiven, but living punishment is inevitable! Later, you will go to the Hall of Enforcement to receive twenty lashes of the God's Whip. At the same time, for the next ten years, you are forbidden from entering the book pavilion!"

The voice of the guardian echoed calmly in the book pavilion.

Upon hearing the punishment of twenty lashes of the God's Whip, Yue Zhixin, who had just climbed up from the ground, suddenly changed his expression.

"Who are you? How dare you..."

Yue Zhixin felt dissatisfied and raised his hand to point at the book pavilion, about to curse, but was directly covered by another true disciple who had just arrived.

"Senior, please forgive him! Junior brother Yue has been practicing in the outer sect all this time and is not familiar with the rules of the sect, so he has offended many!"

"Senior, rest assured, I will take him to the Hall of Enforcement to receive punishment and guarantee that he will not offend again in the future!"

As he spoke, the person forcibly dragged the slightly injured Yue Zhixin away from the courtyard of the book pavilion.

"Thank you, senior guardian, for saving my life!"

Liu Zimo pretended to look frightened and bowed to express his gratitude.

However, he did not receive any response from the guardian. From beginning to end, the guardian did not even show his face. (End of this chapter)
