Just at this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door outside, which stunned Yan.
Who could it be in the middle of the night?
Li? Or the fourth elder, or Lu?
After a brief hesitation, he still got up and walked over. As he opened the door, he saw, under the moonlight, the mysterious figure appearing again on the treetop not far away.
He still had his back facing Yan, slightly turning his face, and said, "It’s not that I look down on you, but I don’t see you at all!"
Yan immediately roared angrily, and the broadsword in his hand burst out, directly chasing after him...
The next day, Zhou Qing, still immersed in Master Lin’s handnotes, received a message from the Academy Law Enforcement Envoy and quickly went outside.
Just as he arrived at the Outer Courtyard, he encountered Lu Yaoyao, who had also received the same news. The two exchanged a glance, unable to say much, they hurried towards the direction of the Law Enforcement Hall.
Soon, they saw Yan Xiaohu tied to a stone pillar, his face full of frustration.
"Third Elder Brother, what happened again?" Zhou Qing hurried forward, spiritual power surging in his hands, directly tearing off the ropes.
Just as Yan Xiaohu was about to say something, several Law Enforcement Envoys emerged, with displeased expressions on their faces.
The leading Law Enforcement Envoy frowned, revealing displeasure and authority in his eyes, coldly saying, "Zhou Qing, even if you are an Inner Courtyard student, you are too contemptuous of our Law Enforcement Hall. What do you mean by unauthorizedly freeing the prisoner?"
His voice was low and powerful, with the pressure of Nascent Soul Great Perfection directly enveloping Zhou Qing.
But Zhou Qing acted like nothing happened, continuing to check the injuries of the third elder brother. Fortunately, he was not injured, allowing Zhou Qing to silently breathe a sigh of relief.
Then Zhou Qing slowly raised his head, looking coldly at the few people, his gaze like a knife, saying, "I only know you tied up my elder brother and made him suffer humiliation here. What do you mean by that?"
The few people, for some unknown reason, felt a chill down their spine upon meeting Zhou Qing’s gaze, as if an invisible coldness was creeping up their backbone.
Even more eerily, they couldn’t help but feel a sudden urge to kneel and surrender.
Yan Xiaohu didn’t want the fourth elder to get into a fight with them, hurriedly saying, "I’m fine, they were just doing their duty, I ran a bit too far last night and disturbed others."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Qing finally withdrew his Emperor’s Might.
As the few people returned to normal, they only felt their backs were soaked with cold sweat, their clothes unknowingly drenched.
This Zhou Qing seems to have just been promoted to an Inner Courtyard student yesterday, but he appears to be another hidden master.
"What exactly happened?" Zhou Qing asked. For origınal chapters go to novel-fire.net
Yan Xiaohu sighed heavily, his face filled with helplessness, and had to recount the events of the previous night in detail.
This left Zhou Qing and Lu Yaoyao looking at each other in dismay.
Who exactly is the opponent?
Why do they only target you and not others?
After a brief hesitation, Zhou Qing suddenly smiled slyly at the few Law Enforcement Envoys, imitating the second uncle’s demeanor, and immediately produced several top-grade Spirit Stones in his hand, quietly handing them over under the cover of his sleeve.
"I’m really sorry, esteemed sirs, I was just in a rush, but you heard it, my elder brother was purely provoked and agitated by that person. Normally, he’s not ."
While speaking, Zhou Qing’s face was full of smiles, continuously bowing and apologizing, his eyes full of sincerity.
The few people’s faces froze, first instinctively glancing around to ensure no one was paying attention, then slightly turned their bodies, sweeping the Spirit Stones into their storage bags with their wide sleeves, the movement skillful and discreet.
After all, no one wanted to oppose money, let alone offend two Inner Courtyard students because of it.
