Chapter 139

“Inspector Heavenly Ambassador?” Guihai Cheng and the azured-clothed guard, who were both kneeling on the ground, turned pale in the face .

“He’s actually an Inspector Heavenly Ambassador . That… That…” The two of them were cultivators, so they naturally knew what it meant to be an Inspector Heavenly Ambassador! The patriarchs of many second-tier cultivators sects were unqualified to be Inspector Heavenly Ambassadors . Very few could become one in the Jiang Prefecture .

As for Li Yuqing, who was carrying her daughter on her back, she was looking at Qin Yun in a daze .

She was once the daughter of an official’s family . She naturally knew of Inspector Heavenly Ambassadors .

“It’s only been eight years and Brother Yun has become an Inspector Heavenly Ambassador?” Li Yuqing found it unbelievable .

The youth that was obsessed with practicing his swordplay at Western Mountain Sword Garden was already an Inspector Heavenly Ambassador?

“Inspector Heavenly Ambassador, if there are any instructions for a lowly official like me, I will definitely do my utmost best . ” The silver-badge constable added politely . The constables behind him also bent their backs .

Qin Yun nodded . “The people here are from the Guihai family of Southbright County . I’ll be taking five of them with me . Send the rest of them back to Six Fans Gate and question them properly . After the investigations are done, send a letter to inform the Southbright County’s Guihai family, as well as a letter to Grand Dominance’s Qin Manor . “

“Grand Dominance’s Qin Manor?” The silver-badge constable immediately understood . He bowed again, “Yes, I understand . “

“Alright . ” Qin Yun nodded .

“Grand Dominance’s Qin Manor? He’s Qin Yun?” Guihai Cheng’s lips were already trembling .

“I heard he killed the three demon monarchs from Evil Dragon Mountain last year . The leader of the trio, Flood Dragon King, had once fought a Connate Golden Core expert head on but eventually escaped with his life . Yet, he eventually died under Qin Yun’s hand . Not one of the three demon monarchs survived . ” The azure-robed guard sent a voice transmission . “My master mentioned that this Inspector Heavenly Ambassador Qin Yun is unfathomable in strength . He’s probably the strongest Azure-token Inspector Heavenly Ambassador in Jiang Prefecture . “

“Cut it out . Do you think I’m not aware of that? Now, we need to think of a way to survive . ” Guihai Cheng said anxiously with a voice transmission .

“The Guihai family is nothing worth mentioning in front of Inspector Heavenly Ambassador Qin Yun . To survive, it will depend on that young widow,” said the azure-robed guard with a voice transmission . “If that young widow were to put in a few good words for us, we might be able to live on . “

“She? Helping us?” Guihai Cheng anxiously thought of solutions .

At that moment, Qin Yun said to Li Yuqing, “Sis Yuqing . If you don’t have a place to call home, why don’t you follow me to Grand Dominance? There are many of your friends in Grand Dominance . “

Li Yuqing nodded with brimming tears . “Yes, to Grand Dominance . I’ve been on the run, hoping to escape back to Grand Dominance . Only in Grand Dominance do I have the most friends I can deem as sisters and brothers . “

“Haha . Alright . ” Qin Yun nodded .

Qin Yun swept his gaze past the duo as well as the three guards that Li Yuqing had pointed out .

“Immobilize!”

Qin Yun said softly .

The Heaven and Earth powers instantly surged into the five people’s bodies under the Dharmic powers guidance . Like invisible chains, they were completely trapped . None of the five could move .

The Dharma spell—Immobilizing Spell!

One had to reach the Connate realm and attain Heaven Man Unity before one could cast it .

“Phew . ” Qin Yun immediately used his flying art and a cloud rose . The five were also thrown onto the clouds .

“Sis Yuqing, let’s go . ” Qin Yun led Li Yuqing and the five as they departed rapidly on the cloud .

“Immortal . “

“There is an immortal!”

The passers-by from afar were excited as they looked up to see Qin Yun and company leaving on a cloud .

Only then did the silver-badge constable stand up . He immediately shouted clearly . “Quick, apprehend all these people from the Guihai family and throw them into the dungeons . All of them will be interrogated . “

“Yes!” The constables immediately went forward to apprehend them .

None of the guards dared to resist .

If this were any other time, a silver-badge constable would let the matter rest considering the Southbright County’s Guihai family’s reputation . However, since Qin Yun had spoken, the silver-badge constable naturally had to be impartial!

“I’ll report this to Lord County Governor immediately,” thought the silver-badge constable .

******

After leaving Vessel Altar County City, they headed straight for Grand Dominance .

On the cloud .

The five men were shuddering with fear . However, with an Immobilizing Spell on them, none of them could move .

Li Yuqing carried her daughter and looked somewhat nervously down the clouds . She commented, “Brother Yun, you were the best among our group at Western Mountain Sword Garden . You attained one with the sword at thirteen and you were the best in Grand Dominance County’s youngest generation at fifteen . After eight years, you are already an Inspector Heavenly Ambassador, a legend among cultivators . “

“You didn’t hear of me becoming an Inspector Heavenly Ambassador?” Qin Yun asked . “The Guihai family is also a large family clan . “

“Never heard of it . “

Li Yuqing shook her head gently . “After I married into the Guihai family, I never left the manor or even step out of the compounds . I spent nearly all my time in the inner compound! Furthermore, my husband was not feeling well and he seldom left the manor . As such, I spent all my time accompanying my husband in the inner compound . Sometimes, I might converse with Sister Xing’er and a few old and young maids . How would I know anything about what was happening outside, much less know about someone becoming Inspector Heavenly Ambassador?”

“What about your father?” asked Qin Yun . “He just watched you get bullied by the Guihai family?”

“My father had led the troops to fight demons and was killed by them . ” Li Yuqing’s eyes were brimming with tears .

Qin Yun sighed lightly .

The government’s troops dealt with demons but they similarly could perish .

“My father had passed away . And when my husband died of his illness, I no longer had anyone to rely on . Perhaps I gave birth to a daughter, so the Guihai family didn’t care about me at all . ” Li Yuqing looked at her daughter in her arms . “If not for Lianlian, I’d would have long committed suicide to accompany my husband in death . “

“What’s the matter with the five of them?” asked Qin Yun .

Guihai Cheng and company looked at Li Yuqing with pleading expressions .

However, she clenched her teeth as she glared at the five with tears welling up in her eyes . “After my husband died, this Guihai Cheng showed me great concern and took rather good care of me . I thought he was a kind person since he was my husband’s elder brother! Who knew that he was a wolf with a savage heart . He machinated against me time and time again . Sister Xing’er that joined the family with my marriage was raped by them and eventually killed . If I had not been accomplished in Qi Refinement, I would have probably been raped by them . After they drugged me, I escaped with great difficulty using my sword arts . I knew that if I continued staying in the manor, I would definitely not be able to escape their evil claws . Therefore, I escaped with my daughter . We headed north all the way, hoping to escape back to Grand Dominance . “

Qin Yun nodded . “The three guards you pointed out?”

“Yes, the three of them . They are the underlings of Guihai Cheng . The three of them have committed the most atrocities . Sister Xing’er was raped to her death by the three of them,” said Li Yuqing .

“I see . ” Qin Yun nodded .

The three guards revealed a pleading expression of horror .

Qin Yun glanced at them .

“Chi! Chi! Chi!”

The trio immediately turned to dust and vanished from the world .

The sword intent domain was excellent at destroying a corpse completely .

The youth with the triangular eyes, Guihai Cheng, and the azure-clothed guard were frightened out of their wits .

“The three of them turned to dust and just vanished?”

“Would he deal with us like that as well?” The two of them were horrified with unease .

Li Yuqing was somewhat astonished as she said solemnly, “Sister Xing’er, if you can see this in heaven, I hope you rest in peace . These three vile men have gotten their retribution . ” She was also considered quite a tolerant person . The three guards were Guihai Cheng’s underlings she hated the most .

“For the three underlings to be this ruthless, Guihai Cheng must be the mastermind behind this, right?” asked Qin Yun .

“Brother Yun, he… He is, after all, a cultivator from the Guihai family . ” Li Yuqing could not help but say .

“It’s because you are too tolerant . ” Qin Yun shook his head . “However, there’s no rush in killing the two of them . When the people from the Guihai family comes, we’ll have a good chat with them . Is this how they bully a daughter-in-law of the Guihai family?”

Li Yuqing whispered, “The Guihai family might not think too much of me either . “

“Regardless, the Guihai family still needs to give an explanation,” said Qin Yun .

…

Back in Grand Dominance County City, they entered Qin Manor .

“Men, throw these two into the dungeons . ” Qin Yun ordered his servants . The both of them had been sealed off their strength .

“Yes . “

There were already a lot of servants and guards in Qin Manor . Guihai Cheng and his guard were quickly escorted to the dungeons .

“Sis Yuqing, be at ease and live here,” said Qin Yun .

“Alright . ” Li Yuqing hugged her daughter and only felt at ease . She had been living the past few days in horror . Now, she could finally calm her mind .

“Yun-er . “

Changlan walked over from a distant corridor . When she saw Li Yuqing, she said with a smile, “Is this your friend?”

“Mother, do you not know her? She’s Sis Yuqing from Lord Li’s family,” said Qin Yun .

“Miss Yuqing?” Changlan was astonished as well . The woman in commoner garb was carrying a daughter and that stood in stark contrast to the heroic young girl from her memories . However, she could still identify her from her looks .

Li Yuqing immediately said softly, “Madam, greetings . I’m Yuqing . “

“How’s your father now?” Changlan asked out of curiosity .

“My father was killed by demons while leading troops to deal with them,” said Li Yuqing softly .

Changlan was taken aback .

“Mother, help her settle down . Let Sis Yuqing stay in my Qin Manor for now,” said Qin Yun .

“Alright . I’ll settle it . ” Changlan looked at Yuqing with a pained heart . Immediately, she accompanied Yuqing in conversation .

…

After understanding the situation, be it Qin Liehu, who had ties with Lord Li, or the kindhearted Changlan, they were furious over the actions of the Guihai family . They also pitied Li Yuqing greatly .

Early the next morning .

Qin Yun was practicing his flying sword arts in his compound .

“Oh?” Qin Yun was a little astonished as he flipped his hand to produce the Inspect Heavenly Token .

Buzz .

A phantom projection appeared beside it in midair . It was Palatial Lord Essence Charm .

“Senior Essence Charm,” greeted Qin Yun .

“Qin Yun, my friend,” Palatial Lord Essence Charm said with a smile . “After returning to the Scenic Mountain Sect yesterday, we quickly discussed the matter internally and communicated with the other five parties that possess a token . The date for entering the Scenic Yang Cave Abode has been decided . “

“It only took a day to determine it? That sure is fast . ” Qin Yun’s eyes lit up as he said with a smile .

“My Scenic Mountain Sect has been waiting for this day for too long . ” Palatial Lord Essence Charm smiled . “The date is fixed to be 12th June . Gather at my Scenic Mountain Sect before noon, alright?”

Qin Yun smiled and nodded . “Alright, I’ll definitely be there before noon on the 12th of June . “
