Start with the fisherman

Squeak.

When the gate opened, there were already many people standing outside.

"Take it?"

Before Cao Ze could ask the reason, the middle-aged man in the purple brocade robe shouted loudly and waved his hand, and two figures rushed towards Cao Ze.

Wang Yuxuan sneered in his heart. This time he brought two great masters of the fifth level. No matter if the opponent was just the invincible Xuanbao Pavilion master in the Dragon Blood Realm, or the assassin who killed Li Jiajun with the Ghost Head Knife, he would not have the slightest chance of escape.

It would be fine if the other party surrenders, but if he resists, he will take the opportunity to kill him and eliminate the trouble forever!
Cao Ze's heart sank. He had already sensed the cultivation levels of the two people rushing towards him, both of them were great masters of the fifth level.

Even if he made another breakthrough in his cultivation, it would not be easy to deal with these two people in a short period of time.

"stop!"

Just as Cao Ze was preparing to attack with all his strength and kill the two men as quickly as possible, a green sword light shot out and blocked the two people who were rushing towards Cao Ze.

The sword light was not fast and its power was pitifully weak.

But it still made the two fifth-level grandmasters stop.

Anyone who dares to draw his sword so recklessly in Donghai County cannot be an ordinary person.

Soon, a green figure came to the scene.

"Who are you? How dare you take action in the county town?"

Luo Qingyun stood in front of Cao Ze, looking down proudly at the two fifth-level grandmasters in front of him.

This is funny, but not surprising, because Luo Qingyun is now the chief of the County City Patrol Department, and he is indeed qualified to patrol the city and interrogate people. He represents the City Patrol Department, the City Lord's Mansion, and the Xuanbao Pavilion!
Of course he recognized these people as members of the Wang family, but he pretended not to know them.

"Luo Qingyun?"

Wang Yuxuan's face turned cold. He didn't expect Luo Qingyun to appear at this time.

"Who do you think you are? How dare you obstruct the City Patrol Department from doing its job?"

Since Luo Qingyun pretended not to know him, he naturally didn't need to know Luo Qingyun. Luo Qingyun was a Dusi, and he was also a Dusi. Who could he fool?
"Why don't you do it quickly?"

Wang Yuxuan looked at the two fifth-level grandmasters.

Luo Qingyun's face changed. He came here this time to invite Cao Ze to participate in the exchanges with the Wang family. Donghai County is usually very safe, so he naturally did not bring any guards. If Wang Yuxuan took action by force, he would have no power to resist at all. He was just a warrior in the Dragon Blood Realm.

The onlookers who were originally preparing to leave suddenly turned back again and looked at Cao Ze with some curiosity. They didn't know who this man was and how he could make the young master of the Luo family come out to protect him.

Of course, they all stood much further away. Those who often watch the fun know that watching the fun is a technical job.

Cao Ze was helpless and had to rely on himself in the end. However, with Luo Qingyun around, he had fewer worries. It was not impossible for him to deal with the two fifth-level grandmasters.

However, just as Cao Ze was about to take action, a terrifying pressure suddenly descended, as if freezing the world, and the two fifth-level grandmasters of the Wang family seemed to be fixed in place.

A figure in a white robe floated over and looked at Wang Yuxuan, "You dare to attack casually in the county city, are you looking for death?"

Behind this man, there was a skinny old man. The pressure that froze the heaven and earth came from this old man.

"Ye Shijie?"

Cao Ze recognized the person at a glance.

But it is not surprising when you think about it. The blood pool is about to begin, and as a true disciple of Xinghui Peak, it is reasonable for Ye Shijie to come to the county city.

Now the mayor of the county city is the mayor of Xinghui Peak, so it is natural for Ye Shijie to hold an important position in the county city.

"I knew you must have also broken through to the Grandmaster level!"

Ye Shijie came in front of Cao Ze, his eyes full of excitement.

He was very grateful to Cao Ze for saving his life, but as the number one person of this generation in Xuanbao Pavilion, he was undoubtedly proud, and he never thought that he was worse than Cao Ze.

"Commander Ye, I am trying to capture the murderer. What do you mean?"

Wang Yuxuan was already filled with anger. A higher-ranking official can crush a person to death. In the Donghai County, Xuanbao Pavilion has the final say after all.

His face remained calm.

They had expected that people from the City Lord's Mansion would show up, so they naturally prepared ways to deal with it.

"Catch the murderer? Who is the murderer? Do you have any evidence? Have you reported it to the City Patrol?"

After nodding to Cao Ze, Ye Shijie walked up to Wang Yuxuan, and the arrogance of a genius was pressed towards Wang Yuxuan without reservation.

"We had to act urgently. I was worried that the thief might escape, so I brought some people here first. We plan to capture the thief first and then report to the City Patrol."

Wang Yuxuan had already prepared and answered fluently, then looked at Cao Ze, "As for the thief, it's the one behind the commander. He broke into a private house in broad daylight, killed people and looted goods. His crime is extremely heinous!"

As he said this, he turned around and glanced at the people around who were watching the excitement.

Under their deliberate guidance, no less than three hundred people have gathered around. He can guarantee that what happened here today will spread throughout the Donghai County within half a day.

This was exactly the effect he wanted. He wanted Xuanbao Pavilion to consider the consequences of shielding Cao Ze.

Ye Shijie listened to Wang Yuxuan patiently, and his expression suddenly became stern, "In an emergency, you must take the necessary measures?"

“Who gave you the right?”

Wang Yuxuan's breathing choked, and he felt as if a stone was pressing on his heart, making him extremely uncomfortable.

He had heard of this name a long time ago, but had never dealt with Ye Shijie. Now that he had seen him, he could only say that there was no false reputation.

This commander has such great authority!

If it were any other dusi, this show of power alone would probably be enough to make him lose his composure.

But Wang Yuxuan is not an ordinary person, and their Wang family is not an ordinary family either.

"Go to the City Patrol Office to receive your punishment afterwards!"

Ye Shijie didn't give Wang Yuxuan any chance to argue and put an end to the matter.

Then he asked without hesitation, "Do you know that Cao Ze is my Xuanbao Pavilion's true disciple?"

"Excuse me, sir, can a disciple of Xuanbao Pavilion kill people in the streets of the county city?"

"A prince who breaks the law is guilty of the same crime as a commoner. I am only doing my duty, regardless of whether he is a direct disciple of Xuanbao Pavilion or an ordinary civilian."

Wang Yuxuan sneered. He had thought that Ye Shijie had the ability, but he didn't expect that he was just a fool.

He actually revealed Cao Ze's identity in public. What would everyone think if he was protecting Cao Ze?
Ye Shijie still had no expression on his face. "Breaking into a private house, killing people and looting goods is a capital crime. Do you have any evidence?"

"Naturally there is."

A smile appeared on Wang Yuxuan's lips. This kid is still a little naive after all.

"That day, after Cao Ze left Zuixianlou, he asked a guide for directions. Merchants along the way also saw him coming to Wang's house. There was also a maid in the Wang family who witnessed him killing the Wang family's guest, Ghost-headed Knife Li Jiajun!"

"unambiguous evidence!"

The onlookers were suddenly in an uproar. This matter had already been reported in Donghai County.

"It turned out that he was the one who killed Gui Toudao!"

"He's a pretty handsome guy, I didn't expect him to do something like this."

"Are you focusing on the wrong thing? Look at how old that kid is, and he can actually kill Gui Tou Dao, who is a second-level grandmaster!"

"So what if he's a second-level Grandmaster? Is the killing of a second-level Grandmaster not worthy of sympathy? If he can kill a second-level Grandmaster today, he can massacre the whole city tomorrow!"

"Great pen!"

Wang Yuxuan was very satisfied with the effect. A smile appeared on his face, and he looked at Ye Shijie with a hint of provocation.

Ye Shijie did not comment, and looked directly at Wang Yuxuan, "Since the evidence is irrefutable, why did you wait so long to arrest him?"

Wang Yuxuan's smile did not fade. "Of course it is to collect evidence. If there is no solid evidence, we dare not touch the people of Xuanbao Pavilion at will."

"Oh?"

"Since you have been collecting evidence these days and have the time to do so, why don't you report it to the City Patrol Department?"

Ye Shijie's words were like a sharp knife, catching Wang Yuxuan off guard.

"This this……"

Wang Yuxuan hesitated for a long time before he thought of a solution. However, before Wang Yuxuan could speak, Ye Shijie turned around and said to the old man behind him, "Uncle Jue, take him down!"

Swish!
The figure flashed.

Wang Yuxuan appeared in the old man's hands, and he picked up Wang Yuxuan in his hands like a chicken.

Wang Yuxuan was stunned. He thought Xuanbao Pavilion would protect its young master, but he didn't expect Ye Shijie to take him down directly. By doing this, is Xuanbao Pavilion really not afraid of criticism from others?

The two fifth-level masters he brought with him also looked at each other, but neither of them acted rashly.

As early as when Ye Shijie arrived, they had already determined that the old man was a ninth-level peak grandmaster. Even if they attacked together now, they would not cause any hindrance to the opponent.

"Commander, what crime have I committed? Why are you arresting me?"

"The commander is so partial to the disciples of Xuanbao Pavilion. Where do you put the other people in Donghai County?"

"Does the commander want to destroy the prestige that the city lord has built up over the years?"

Wang Yuxuan spoke a long paragraph in a loud voice at a very fast speed, and every word was heart-piercing. He knew that if he didn't speak eloquently at this moment, he would be in real danger.

"You broke into a private house the other day, killed people and looted goods. I was ordered to come and arrest you. What do you have to say?"

Ye Shijie looked down at Wang Yuxuan in the old man's hand with a joking look.

"Where's the evidence?"

"Where's the evidence?"

"You can't just arrest people whenever you want, right?"

Wang Yuxuan argued loudly as if he had grabbed the last straw.

He was very excited and felt that he had found Ye Shijie's flaw.

The crowd around also became noisy. They were just ordinary people or independent cultivators, and they had no good feelings towards the high and mighty Xuanbao Pavilion.

Now seeing such a domineering scene, people naturally talked about it and even cursed secretly.

"The maid of that master's family saw you killing the pig with her own eyes, and the merchants along the way also saw you going that way."

"unambiguous evidence!"

Wow!
There was a sudden silence.

Wang Yuxuan's face turned the color of liver.

Isn’t this the reason why he arrested Cao Ze before?

The onlookers are not fools, so they naturally understand what it means.

Many smart people had already come to their senses when they heard that Wang Yuxuan spent so much time collecting clues but did not report them to the City Patrol Department.

This is not impartial law enforcement at all, it's just a fight between the Wang family and Xuanbao Pavilion.

They adjusted their mindset instantly, stopped getting involved in the story, and became spectators, just watching for fun.

Ye Shijie also retracted his gaze, and after just glancing at the people around him, he looked at Wang Yuxuan again, "As much evidence as you want, I can give you as much as you want."

"If this counts as evidence, your Wang family has now been exterminated for rebellion!"

"Uncle Jue, let him go!"

Ye Shijie was too lazy to deal with Wang Yuxuan, he was just a small character.

Wang Yuxuan's face turned purple. He stood there and performed face-changing for a long time before he finally regained his composure.

"I was a little careless in this matter. I am willing to accept the punishment!"

"But Cao Ze is a serious suspect, so it is reasonable for me to ask him to return to the City Patrol Office for questioning."

Wang Yuxuan admitted his mistake decisively. Since he was assigned to do this job, he must have some real skills.

He still has a trump card, so there may be a chance of turning the situation around.

"Besides, he is also involved in another major case, which is why my subordinates are so anxious to arrest him."

Wang Yuxuan looked at a young man in brocade clothes in the crowd and said, "Mr. Chen, please take out the photo beads!"

This time, without waiting for Ye Shijie to ask questions, he was a little impatient to produce the evidence.

The young man in brocade clothes glanced at Ye Shijie and his figure trembled slightly.

He looked at Cao Ze again and lowered his head in shame.

Cao Ze recognized the young man at a glance. He was one of the young heroes he rescued in the canyon of Donghai County.

At this time, the young man also had an ordinary crystal-like, crystal clear, walnut-sized bead in his hand.

There are countless images flowing in the beads, as if they are a brain storing memories.

This is the photo-taking bead.

Swish!
The next moment, the image-retaining bead was activated.

A picture appeared out of nowhere in the air, and everyone could see the dreamy and blurry elixir in the picture.

"Nine-turn Blood Soul Flower!"

Informed people have already called out the name of this flower.

Later, they saw a middle-aged man picking the flower.

"Gentleman Sword King Ning!"

Wang Ning is quite famous in Donghai County, and many people know him.

Then, the scene changed and the middle-aged man had already arrived outside the cave, with a long sword coming through the air.

Cao Ze's figure appeared in the picture.

Then there was the scene of Cao Ze killing Wang Ning and taking away Wang Ning’s storage magic weapon.

The scene ended, and Wang Yuxuan looked at Cao Ze with his head held high. "You killed my Wang family's grandmaster, took away the Nine-transformation Blood Soul Flower, and killed people to steal treasures. What else do you have to say?"

It is normal to kill people and steal treasures in the wild, but it would be embarrassing to be caught red-handed.

It is understandable that the Wang family came to seek revenge.

Cao Ze was also stunned.

Wow, I didn’t expect there are editing masters in this world.

Ye Shijie also frowned. Now that things had come to this point, he didn't know what to say.

There is nothing wrong with killing people for treasure.

It is only natural that a life should be paid with a life.

Of course he would not let the Wang family take Cao Ze away, but now they were undoubtedly in a very passive situation.

"Kill someone and pay for your life. Debts should be paid back. Cao Ze, we are here to ask you to pay for your life. Do you have anything to say?"

Wang Yuxuan looked at Cao Ze, then at Ye Shijie, "Commander, are you going to stop us now?"

Of course, he didn't think that he could kill Cao Ze so easily. He just wanted to put himself on the moral high ground first, and then force Cao Ze to death step by step.

"Wait!"

Just as Cao Ze stepped forward, a girl in a light yellow dress walked out of the crowd.

The girl walked quickly to the center of the field, first glared at the young man fiercely, then looked at Wang Yuxuan with anger in her eyes.

"The dead are the greatest. I didn't want to ruin the old man's reputation after he died."

"But since you are so shameless, there is no need for me to save your face!"

The girl suddenly turned around and raised her right hand. In her hand there was a crystal clear, walnut-sized bead with a faint image constantly flowing in it. It was the photo-retaining bead!

"I also have a photo bead here, would you like to see it, Prince?" (End of this chapter)
