507 Six Words of the Sword Holding Palace (1)

Seeing this scene, the expressions of the two Law Palace cultivators who were escorting Xu Qing changed drastically. Endless shock and anger rose in their hearts. They were very sure that they hadn’t tortured Xu Qing.

Not only did they not do it, but no one in the Third Department did it.

During these three days in prison, they didn’t even go to see Xu Qing.

At that moment, in their anger, they spoke one after the other.

“That’s impossible. We didn’t torture him!”

“This is clearly fabricated by you guys. Don’t you know what kind of place the Law Palace is? You actually dare to slander the Law Palace!”

Seeing that the captain’s acting was already in place, Zi Xuan knew that it was her time to act. She took a step forward. With this step, the Nihility cultivation base instantly erupted from her body.

Thousands of Dao threads flowed in her eyes, and her terrifying energy fluctuations caused the sky and earth to change color as rumbling sounds rang out in all directions.

Even in the county capital, Nihility was still Nihility. Their anger alone could shake the surroundings. Her expression was gloomy and furious. She didn’t bother with the two nameless p.a.w.ns who were trying to defend themselves but looked into the depths of the Law Palace.

“Zi Xuan, a human sect cultivator from the Yinghuang Province, escorted my Alliance’s boundless light holder. The emperor personally appointed the new Sword Holder, Xu Qing, to enter the county. I hope the Law Palace can give me an explanation for this. Is my Alliance’s Dao Child Xu Qing being framed due to jealousy or is he really guilty?!”

The Law Palace was very large and the location of the Third Department was only a small portion of it. However, regardless of whether it was the captain or Zi Xuan, their voices were loud and spread in all directions.

Many cultivators from the Law Palace heard it from their respective locations. Originally, when they heard the captain’s shout, some experts from the Law Palace were dissatisfied and prepared to go over to stop the commotion.

After all, causing such trouble in the Law Palace would in itself arouse the disgust of the Law Palace.

However, after hearing that the matter involved jealousy, some of them stopped.

The word ‘jealousy’ clearly revealed personal grudges. It had nothing to do with official matters or with them, so there was naturally no reason for them to interfere.

Even those who still had a dignified expression on their faces and wanted to stop the captain stopped one after another after hearing the captain mention the great emperor.

After all, there weren’t many stupid people here.

Even the colleagues who were close to the Third Department’s director, Yao Yunhui, hesitated when they saw Zi Xuan stepping forward.

Other than Zi Xuan’s att.i.tude, the dozens of indignant Sword Holders also made them hesitate.

No one came to stop the situation, so this matter naturally became bigger and bigger. The Sword Holders even sent messages to summon their colleagues. Seeing that the situation had changed, Zhang Siyun’s mother couldn’t sit still anymore.

She realized how difficult Xu Qing was. She also understood that she couldn’t let this matter continue like this. Otherwise, it would be extremely disadvantageous to her.

After all, this matter didn’t make sense to begin with. It would have been fine if she had followed her original plan, but now, the other party’s counterattack was too swift and sharp, and it directly hit the critical point.

Hence, she walked out of her office with a gloomy expression. With a step, she arrived outside the prison of the Third Department and appeared in front of everyone.

Her arrival immediately made the two disciples of the Law Palace heave a sigh of relief and they hurriedly ran to greet her.

At the same time, everyone from the Eight Sects Alliance and the Sword Holders also looked at Yao Yunhui.

This was especially so for Zi Xuan. Her aura fluctuated, causing the weather to change. Her beautiful eyes were cold as she looked at the peerless beauty in front of her who was on par with her in terms of appearance.

Yao Yunhui fell silent. Her cultivation wasn’t at Nihility but only at the Spirit Repository. If she was in a place with no one around, she would naturally be afraid of Zi Xuan. However, in the Law Palace, she wasn’t afraid.

However, she came to deal with a problem. Hence, she took a deep breath and bowed to Purple Mystic Fairy. When she turned to look at Xu Qing, her eyes revealed apologies as she spoke softly.

“Xu Qing, this matter is due to my Third Department’s negligence. As the director, I will definitely investigate thoroughly and give you an explanation. The Eight Sects Alliance’s branch sect and you, Xu Qing, are only here to cooperate with the investigation. Now that all the investigation is finished, you guys have been found to not have committed the crime of overstepping your authority.”

“That’s why I ordered your release. However, now that such a problem has happened, no matter what the reason is, it’s not important. There’s no need to look at the prison’s recording. This is my responsibility.”

Yao Yunhui spoke sincerely. After she finished speaking, she even took out a jade slip, as though she was really investigating this matter.

Her words were filled with deep meaning. She seemed to be apologizing but in reality, she was using her ident.i.ty as the director of the Third Department.

As such, it naturally implied that she didn’t know anything. It was as though everything was a random act by her subordinates. At the same time, she stood up and said that it was her responsibility.

She also mentioned that everything was an investigation and using release as evidence that this matter wasn’t caused by personal grudges.

This removed herself from this matter.

In the end, she even pointed out the recording with a hint of warning.

This scene caused Xu Qing’s eyes to narrow slightly. As for the captain, he raised his brows and glanced at Yao Yunhui.

Although the other party’s plan was rough, her methods of dealing with problems were not bad.

“I’m investigating the cause and effect of this matter and will provide an answer very soon. Xu Qing’s injuries are very serious. I have a Spirit Acc.u.mulation Pill here. Please accept it and treat your injuries first.”

Yao Yunhui took out a pill with an apologetic expression.

This pill shone with a gentle light. One look and one could tell that it was definitely extraordinary.

“Don’t worry, not to mention you who was personally appointed by the emperor, even mortals are treated equally in the eyes of our Law Palace. It’s our duty to enforce the law impartially.”

As Yao Yunhui spoke, she placed the pill to the side. After that, the jade slip in her hand flickered. After she focused her attention and checked it, a dignified expression instantly appeared on her face. She looked at the two disciples of the Law Palace beside her.
