Chapter 93

Human trafficking and drugs.

When the shocking content that Yu Xin Yun had never thought of came out of his mouth, a cold silence enveloped the room.

But it didn't last long.

"…We, we have an urgent matter with the caravan and must go see to it."

"What! Suddenly, your wife's chronic illness has worsened?"

Those who belatedly realized the gravity of the situation that Yu Xin Yun had revealed judged that if they stayed any longer, they might get entangled in complicated affairs and hurriedly tried to leave.

Among them was Meng Denghao, who was also trying to hide his panic.

'Heavens! That guy is the mastermind behind everything! I must inform Lord Ling immediately!'

The moment he heard Yu Xin Yun's words, he could tell what was happening.

Meng Denghao quickly sent a secret message to the Jianglong Team members, instructing them to inform Yan Chianshi of this fact and get out as soon as possible.

However, the Jianglong Team members who received the order tried to leave but were stopped.

Paba!

"Stop!"

Yu Ziliang moved his subordinates a step ahead.

Gold Guard warriors, exuding a frosty aura, already had their swords drawn and were guarding the door.

"From now on, no one can leave this room until I give the order!"

With a roar, Yu Ziliang released an overwhelming aura from his body. His power, which had reached the Xianjing realm, instantly filled the room.

Those who were about to leave groaned and stopped in their tracks, their hearts pressed down by Yu Ziliang's aura.

Just as Meng Denghao was gasping.

Yu Ziliang, who had stopped everyone, turned to Yu Xin Yun and spoke.

"What you said are matters of utmost gravity, neither of which can be overlooked. Can you take responsibility for your words?"

"There is not a single lie in what I said."

Yu Xin Yun answered without hesitation.

Yu Ziliang was utterly perplexed.

In the Lian Kingdom, the two most severely punished crimes were precisely those related to human trafficking and drugs.

Even if one were of the royal family, one could not escape the death penalty. It was hard to believe that such matters were rampant here.

'…Moreover, how could this person know about matters that even our Dongchang (Eastern Factory) failed to uncover…'

Could there be something that both of the two major powers, which shared the power of the imperial palace, had failed to discover?

Currently, Yu Ziliang was a mix of doubt and shock.

"…Even if I take your words as true, how do you know about this?"

At Yu Ziliang's words, everyone in the room turned their attention to Yu Xin Yun. This was a point of curiosity for all, including him.

"When my subordinate tried to take over the Baiyun Escort Agency, he used that drug to forcibly addict my father and brothers."

Yu Ziliang looked at him with a shocked expression.

He knew that Yu Xin Yun had ascended to the position of Guozhu through the fratricidal conflict, as reported by his subordinate.

However, he had no idea that such a dark secret was hidden in the process.

"I saw with my own eyes how the drug was used to control my younger brother like a puppet, and I obtained the human trafficking ledger from the Jinjia Manor, which had secretly allied with him. …And finally, I was able to identify the mastermind behind all this."

"…Who is it?"

"They are here in this room."

When Yu Xin Yun paused, Yu Ziliang watched him with cautious eyes.

Then, at that moment.

Swoosh.

Yu Xin Yun's finger pointed at someone.

"…!"

"Ah!"

The people in the room, upon confirming who Yu Xin Yun was pointing at, were shocked.

He was pointing at the Jiulong Hall.

The people beside Meng Denghao scattered in an instant.

"Subdue them!"

With Yu Ziliang's command, the Gold Guard rushed at Meng Denghao and the Jianglong Team members like lightning.

Clang!

Meng Denghao and the Jianglong Team members also drew their weapons and stood against the Gold Guard.

Then, Meng Denghao, with a look of indignation, spoke.

"This is an unfounded accusation!"

Despite the tense situation, Meng Denghao maintained a calm demeanor and continued to deny everything.

'…If I can just get out of here, I can inform Lord Ling. If I can kill everyone here and cover it up, it will be as if nothing happened.'

Hiding his true thoughts, Meng Denghao put on a poker face and continued his act.

"Since he received the imperial protection for finding the escort item by chance, he has been blinded by greed and is now slandering us to gain dominance in Zhejiang Province. Why don't you see that he has no solid evidence, despite his flowery words!"

Meng Denghao spoke naturally, like water flowing.

Yu Ziliang still had a suspicious look, but since there was no evidence to support Yu Xin Yun's claims, he temporarily halted his subordinates.

Seeing this, Meng Denghao thought he had found a weak point and began to speak confidently.

"If we had engaged in such despicable acts to increase our power, how could we have escaped the eyes of the Censorate? Inspector, don't just stand there; please add your voice."

Meng Denghao appealed to Jiang Weixiao with a look of deep grievance.

-If you don't help us immediately, I will cut off your daughter's head!

At the same time, he secretly threatened Jiang Weixiao with his daughter's life.

However, the look in Jiang Weixiao's eyes was different from before. The lifeless, hollow eyes had returned to the sharp, alert eyes of the past.

Caught off guard by the unexpected situation, Meng Denghao was momentarily stunned.

"Do you think you can escape by intimidating the Inspector?"

The response came not from Jiang Weixiao but from Yu Xin Yun.

Seeing his expression, Meng Denghao realized that things were not going as planned.

Before he could react.

"Since you want evidence, I will show it to you."

Creak.

With Yu Xin Yun's final words, the doors of the banquet hall opened wide.

Everyone's eyes turned to the door.

"…!"

Dang Haling and Zhuge Jun supported a mysterious woman as she entered.

'How did she get here!'

Meng Denghao's eyes trembled as if an earthquake had struck. It was only natural, given the situation.

The identity of the woman, who appeared weak at first glance, was.

"Dan Ye!"

She was Jiang Dan Ye, Jiang Weixiao's daughter, who should have been imprisoned in a secret dungeon.

Jiang Weixiao rushed to her side and embraced her tightly, bursting into tears.

'Success.'

Yu Xin Yun smiled in satisfaction at the sight.

Just before entering the banquet hall, Yu Xin Yun had secretly sent troops to the secret dungeon where Jiang Dan Ye was imprisoned, as he had learned from the Xiaowen Sect.

The elite troops consisted of the Tianmu Sect's elite warriors led by Dao Nanjiang, the Xiaowen Sect's experts led by Shen Wuyang, and finally, Zhuge Jun and Dang Haling.

Dao Nanjiang readily agreed to Yu Xin Yun's request without hesitation, and Shen Wuyang had no choice but to comply with the order.

Yu Xin Yun knew in advance that the security was very lax due to Yan Chianshi giving his subordinates a break after the escort item was found, so the operation was a success.

Shen Wuyang and Dao Nanjiang were still attacking other dungeons, while Zhuge Jun and Dang Haling brought Jiang Dan Ye to the banquet hall.

At that moment, Jiang Weixiao, standing beside his daughter, glared at Meng Denghao with a murderous intent and spoke, emphasizing each word.

"Ziliang, everything he said is true. The masterminds behind this are the Huashan Sect and the Jiulong Hall."

"These despicable scoundrels!"

Jiang Weixiao's tears and words made Yu Ziliang instantly realize the situation his friend had been in, and he roared in anger.

"Attack!"

Realizing that the situation was beyond repair, Meng Denghao ordered his subordinates to launch a full attack.

Paba!

The Jianglong Team members revealed their true colors and attacked Yu Ziliang and the Gold Guard without hesitation.

Clang! Clang!

Sharp sword sounds echoed throughout the banquet hall, plunging it into chaos.

People scrambled to avoid the raining sword strikes.

The Gold Guard warriors, known for their elite skills comparable to the best of the martial world, were struggling to subdue the Jianglong Team members.

As the Jianglong Team members unleashed their hidden demonic aura, the Gold Guard began to be pushed back.

However, when Yu Ziliang drew his sword from its scabbard, the tide turned instantly.

A scorching aura, like the sun in the sky, began to rise from the Qinglong Sword, one of the Ten Great Treasures of the martial world. This was Yu Ziliang's Qinglong True Qi, known as the ultimate martial technique.

The boiling Qinglong True Qi was transforming into a new form, beyond the level of sword beams.

The power of the sword beams concentrated into a fine point, eventually forming a small sphere.

This was the realm beyond sword beams, known as the Sword Ring.

Six Sword Rings now floated above the blade of the Qinglong Sword.

In the next moment, Yu Ziliang lightly slashed the Qinglong Sword.

Whoosh! Bang!

The six Sword Rings shot out like arrows towards the enemies.

Boom! Bang!

The six Sword Rings, as if possessing their own will, began to ravage the enemies.

The Sword Rings pierced through the enemies' qi-infused swords and created holes in their armor.

The Jianglong Team members fell, unable to even scream, spewing blood.

Meng Denghao, watching this futile scene, bit his lip.

'Gah! There's no hope. I must buy time to escape!'

Indeed, a martial artist at the end of the Xianjing realm was different. Sensing defeat, he began to chant an unknown incantation.

"Gah!"

"Rumble!"

The reaction of the Jianglong Team members was strange. They suddenly froze as if struck by lightning.

Thud!

Thud!

As they stopped moving, the Gold Guard seized the opportunity and stabbed their vital points.

However, they made no sound. Their eyes turned completely white, as if in a seizure.

An even more bizarre scene unfolded.

Thick veins began to bulge on their skin, and their bodies started to swell like balloons.

Yu Ziliang felt a chill down his spine.

'This is!'

To his knowledge, there was only one thing that could cause such a phenomenon.

"Everyone, fall back!"

The forbidden insect, Liu Ma Xue Gu, which turns its host into a bomb, was known for its explosive power comparable to a wall-breaking bomb.

'If these guys explode here, ordinary people like Weixiao won't survive!'

Rumble!

Yu Ziliang, having recalled the Sword Rings, gathered all his power and enveloped the Jianglong Team members, who were swelling like balloons. He was trying to contain the explosion with his Qinglong True Qi.

At that moment.

Paba!

"Ah! That guy is escaping!"

Seizing the moment, Meng Denghao began to run.

None of the Gold Guard dared to move rashly, but only Yu Xin Yun immediately followed him.
