Chapter 1831

“Lord Bai…” Xia Jingwu’s forehead was dripping with cold sweat, and he forcibly squeezed out a smile and stepped forward to cupping his hands and said, “Lord Bai, this little man is Xia Jingwu. Three years ago, I had a chance encounter with Lord Bai. I wonder if Lord Bai still remembers this little man？”

Bai Zhengchu looked at him coldly： “Who the hell are you？”

“Hehe…” Xia Jingwu smiled awkwardly. “Your Excellency has a lot of important matters to attend to and naturally doesn’t remember this little person. However, this little person has quite a good relationship with the Kang Sheng, Lord Kang under your Excellency. There is a reason for today’s matter. Can your Excellency please enter the inner hall and wait for a while, and let this little person report to you in detail？”

As he spoke, Xia Jingwu took off the space ring on his hand and handed it to Bai Zhengchu without a trace.

All his possessions were in the space ring, and almost all his property was stored in that one ring. But he still handed it over without hesitation because he knew that if the Chamber of Commerce couldn’t survive this disaster, even if he had more things, he wouldn’t have the life to enjoy them.

“You still know Kang Sheng？” Bai Zhengchu looked at Xia Jingwu in surprise.

Xia Jingwu nodded and bowed repeatedly： “This is the good fortune of this little person.”

Bai Zhengchu sneered： “It seems that this Kang Sheng, the captain of the guards, doesn’t need to do his job anymore. Why does he make friends with all kinds of messy people？”

As soon as these words came out, Xia Jingwu’s face changed drastically.

With just one sentence, he dragged the guard captain named Kang Sheng into trouble and caused unnecessary disasters. After this matter, even if Bai Zhengchu didn’t make things difficult for him and the Five Directions Chamber of Commerce, I’m afraid Kang Sheng wouldn’t let it go easily either.

His relationship with Kang Sheng was completely based on holy crystals, and this kind of relationship was simply extremely fragile.

“You have a lot of nerve, actually daring to bribe this vice-captain in full view of everyone!” Bai Zhengchu snorted coldly, reached out and took Xia Jingwu’s spatial ring, didn’t even look at it, and directly threw it to a martial artist who came with him. “The Five Elements Chamber of Commerce hit people first, contempt the laws of Purple Star City, and bribed this vice-captain later, with the crime tripled. Take them all down for me.”

“Yes！” A group of martial artists shouted and then surrounded the people of the Five Elements Chamber of Commerce.

In the chamber of commerce, apart from Hua Youmeng being a powerhouse at the Return to Void Third Layer Realm, only the woman named Gao Hong was at the Return to Void First Layer Realm. The others were all at the Saint King Realm cultivation level. If Hua Youmeng was intact, perhaps there would still be a fighting chance, but she was hit by Xia Jingwu’s Flower Rain Strange Lin, and her whole body was weak and powerless. Although her consciousness was clear, she couldn’t use her Saint Yuan and could only watch helplessly as her brothers and sisters were captured.

Soon, the people of the Five Elements Chamber of Commerce were all captured one by one, and Xia Jingwu and Yao Qing were even beaten black and blue.

“The people weren’t beaten by us, what are you arresting us for？ I’m not convinced！” Yao Qing shouted loudly with his neck stuck out.

“Oh？ They weren’t beaten by you？ So many people outside the city gate saw that the ones who hit people were precisely your Five Elements Chamber of Commerce. Could there be a fake？”

“I said they weren’t beaten by us, and they weren’t beaten by us.” Yao Qing gritted his teeth and roared angrily.

“Lord Bai…” Gao Hong struggled with her expression for a while and then shouted loudly, “In response to the lord’s words, the person who hit the person was indeed not from our chamber of commerce. That person was able to defeat Manager Min with one move. What virtue and ability does our small Five Directions Chamber of Commerce have to be able to invite such a master? The lord is wise and awesome, wouldn’t he not even think of this?

Bai Zhengchu narrowed his eyes and looked towards Gao Hong, coldly snorting and saying, “Are you accusing this vice commander of being unable to distinguish right from wrong and being ineffective in handling affairs？”

“Dare not! Under his pressure, Gao Hong’s delicate body trembled, but she still gritted her teeth and said, “It’s just that if the lord only arrested us innocent people and let the real culprit go free, if this matter were to be known by Commander Lu, I wonder if Commander Lu would think that the lord you are unable to distinguish right from wrong and ineffective in handling affairs.”

“Presumptuous！” Bai Zhengchu shouted sharply, with a fierce expression.

Gao Hong forcibly endured the spirit and looked at him.

After a long while, Bai Zhengchu then chuckled: “Youdaoplaceholder0, in this small chamber of commerce, there are actually so many audacious guys. I like it! Alright, since you said that the person who hit the person is not from your Five Directions Chamber of Commerce, then… where is he?

“He is still here！” Gao Hong couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief and quickly replied.

“Gao Hong！” Hua Youmeng’s pretty face changed slightly, and she looked at Gao Hong with a blaming expression.

Gao Hong gave a desolate smile. “President, since that person has caused trouble himself, our Chamber of Commerce can’t possibly bear the responsibility. No matter whether you will blame me or not, I must expose him.”

As she spoke, she reached out and pressed a acupoint on the back of Hua Youmeng, instantly silencing her so that she could only watch her helplessly.

“The person who hit someone is still in your Chamber of Commerce, and yet you dare to say he’s not one of yours？” Bai Zhengchu sneered as he looked at Gao Hong. “Do you think this vice commander is an idiot？”

Gao Hong said in a deep voice, “Precisely because he’s not a member of our Chamber of Commerce, that’s why this little woman has tried to stabilize him and wait for the arrival of you adults so that you can apprehend the real culprit.”

“Eloquent！” Bai Zhengchu smiled slightly, seemingly quite satisfied with this answer. “Well, since that’s the case, you lead the way ahead. I really want to see which bastard dares to act recklessly in my Purple Star City！”

“This way, my lord！” Gao Hong gestured with her hand and immediately led the way ahead.

Even when leading the way, she didn’t put down the completely limp Hua Youmeng. Instead, she carried her horizontally in her arms.

She squints her eyes looked towards the side room where Yang Kai was located her expression constantly changing. After a moment her beautiful eyes became firm, as if she had made up her mind about something. One of her hands quietly hung down, and her fingers moved slightly, swing regularly a few times.

Xia Jingwu, who was following behind, couldn’t help but look solemn when he saw this.

In a short while, under the leadership of Gao Hong, a group of people bustlingly crowded outside the wing where Yang Kai was located.

“My lord, that person is right inside. If my lord doesn’t believe it, just call him out to confront face to face, and you will know whether what we said before is true or false. Gao Hong stood aside and pointed to the side room.

Bai Zhengchu ignored her and instead squint looked at the side room, and his spiritual thoughts swept inward.

He indeed detected thesmell of a person inside, but when he wanted to spy on the opponent’s cultivation level, he found that his spiritual thoughts didn’t have any effect at all. They actually penetrated through the opponent’s body like a stone sinking into the sea.

This discovery made Bai Zhengchu’s face froze, realizing that the opponent’s strength might not be low.

After all, it was someone who could injure deacon Min with one move. If the strength was poor it would be impossible to achieve this.

So he didn’t dare to be too presumptuous and quickly took back his spiritual thoughts. However, this place was Purple Star City, and as the deputy commander, he was used to being arrogant and domineering on weekdays. He didn’t take Yang Kai too seriously either. He shouted loudly: “Who on earth are you, Why don’t you come out and meet me quickly!”

As soon as the voice fell, there was no movement at all in the box.

Bai Zhengchu’s face suddenly couldn’t hold back, and he sneered and said, “Friend, if you are sensible, come out by yourself. I don’t care what your background is or what your cultivation level is. Those who dare to act recklessly in Zixing City will not end well. If you cooperate obediently, there may still be a glimmer of hope. Otherwise…”

He waited for a while with a sullen face and still didn’t get a response. He couldn’t help being a little angry and furious, and shouted angrily, “Playing tricks, when this deputy commander throws you into the cold prison, let’s see if you can still be so arrogant.”

As he spoke, he pointed to five or six martial artists beside him and said, “Go in and catch him.”

Those five or six martial artists were not stupid either. They knew that the people in the room might not be easy to mess with, but when Bai Zhengchu’s order was issued, they didn’t dare to disobey and could only rush in with a stiff head.”

Originally thought there would be some movement inside, at worst there would be some fighting sounds, but to everyone’s surprise, after those five or six people entered the room, they seemed to disappear out of thin air, and there was no sound at all.”

If it weren’t for the fact that their vitality and breath were still there, I’m afraid everyone would really think they had disappeared.”

Bai Zhengchu’s face became even more solemn.”

Several people from the Wufang Chamber of Commerce also looked at each other in dismay, and didn’t know what had happened inside.”

Just at this time, several figures flew out from the inside, and each of them fell to the ground and didn’t move.”

They were exactly the several martial artists who had rushed in earlier. Each of them had a peaceful expression, as if they were asleep. On the surface, they didn’t seem to have suffered any harm. Even a fellow had a smile on the corner of his mouth. No one knew what good thing he had dreamed of.

Hiss…

Bai Zhengchu took a deep breath in surprise. These several martial artists were all at the Void Returning Mirror level. Although they were only at the first level of the Void Returning Realm, they were not easy to control casually. Even if he made a move himself, it would be impossible to achieve such a degree.

Who on earth was the person inside this house？ Bai Zhengchu’s heart was beating nervously.

But as one of the eight deputy commanders of Purple Star City, he couldn’t show weakness in this situation. After his complexion changed for a while, he said, “All follow me.”

If they couldn’t take down this troublemaker today, he wouldn’t be able to be this deputy commander anymore. At this moment, he could only secretly pray that the other party was not a Void King Realm expert. Otherwise, none of them had a chance of winning.

A group of people rushed into the house with a clatter.

This time, it was no longer silent. Instead, the sounds of fighting and exclamation were immediately heard. Immediately after that, one martial artist after another flew out of the room and fell to the ground, wailing continuously.

In just the blink of an eye, all the people who had rushed in were thrown out, leaving only Bai Zhengchu still inside. However, from his exclamation, it could be heard that his situation was very bad.

“Now！” Gao Hong, who had been watching coldly all along, suddenly shouted and rushed into the sky with Hua Youmeng in her arms.

Xia Jingwu, who had already understood, also shouted loudly： “Let’s go！”

Yao Qing and Haitang didn’t react until this moment. They followed the steps of Xia Jingwu and Gao Hong one after another. trying to take advantage of the chaos and escape from this place.

But when they had only flown up to a height of ten zhang, a terrifyingsmellrushed towards them. Thatsmell was like a heavy quilt pressing down. Gao Hong and the others were caught off guard for a moment. Their bodies all paused and they were directly pressed back.

In the mid-air, a layer of ripples flashed, and at the center of the ripples, a figure ghostly appeared.
