Chapter 361 - Innocence and Merits
"What kind of reason is that? Palace Chief Zhao, are you trying to amuse me?" Master Long shook his sleeves and shouted with dissatisfaction.
"What does this Master Long mean?" Palace Chief Zhao asked anxiously, he had once again asked about the higher ups of Misty Rain House, f * cking. If not for this idiot from Misty Rain House behind him interrupting him with an arrogant attitude, he might have been able to negotiate peacefully with Master Long.
No matter how weak it was, there was no need to be choked by the Master Long!
"Do you really not know or are you just pretending?" The Master Long asked coldly.
The Palace Chief Zhao shook his head, but the Three Sects did not dare to speak carelessly, especially the higher ups of the Misty Rain House. While feeling stifled in their hearts, they also regretted not holding back earlier and blurted out that they did not have a good attitude.
"In that case, I will tell you everything!" "First of all, the Yun Family and the Ling Family where Wang Hao's mother is from always have grudges. It is understandable that Wang Hao would want to take revenge.
"Furthermore, both Misty Rain House and Zheng Family had mothers who lost to Wang Hao back then. As the son of a human, Wang Hao helped his mother gain justice, what is wrong with that? Misty Rain House allying with your County Palace and two sects, are they trying to bully others? You think my Crouching Dragon Villa is easy to bully? "
"Although our village does not dare to say how strong it is, but in this crouching dragon territory, we believe that there is no one who can threaten and oppress us."
"As for the death of Mingzhou City Master Zheng Ji, it is against the laws of the empire." Saying that, the Master Long paused.
Palace Chief Zhao and Three Sects did not even dare to breathe loudly when they heard this, feeling extremely stifled and aggrieved in their hearts. Now that they heard Master Long admitting to the violation of the law, their tensed hearts immediately lit up with hope, and could not help but say to themselves: Although the Master Long is tyrannical, they still know the big picture. After all, he is the sect master of a sect, so to come knocking on his door like this, it is equivalent to slapping his face.
However, just as Palace Chief Zhao's group of four's impression of him changed and the heavy weight in their hearts was put down, Master Long's following words were like an iron hammer that ruthlessly smashed onto their chests.
"But you said it yourself just now, was the one who killed Zheng Ji, the culprit was Zheng Yi, you can go and capture him, why did you want to frame Wang Hao and say that he was the one who instigated it, Zheng Yi was even able to inflict heavy injuries on you, such a strong being, do you think you will listen to Wang Hao? Who would believe it when it came out? Or do you think that by joining together, if you feel confident enough, you will be able to oppress our village? Do you really think that I have no temper? " Master Long shouted coldly, showing his intent to attack immediately.
Ga!
Palace Chief Zhao's group of four once again froze, their heartbeat seemed to stop for a short moment as they felt the pressure on their chest pressing down. For a moment, even breathing became difficult for them.
It was because he was affected by the Master Long's Jindan Nine Circulation and even more so angered by the Master Long's coquettish words.
However, the excuse given by the Master Long was extremely reasonable. How could a Ranker like Zheng Yi listen to the orders of a Upper Sky warrior like Wang Hao?
Furthermore, now that Zheng Yi was nowhere to be seen, even if they wanted to make Zheng Yi come out to confront them, they would not be able to find him!
There was no solution!
Palace Chief Zhao had just listed a few crimes against Wang Hao, and those were erased with just a few words. Although they could not say that it was perfect, they were still unable to refute it.
Amongst these crimes, Zheng Ji's death was the greatest. After all, he was a four cycles of Jindan cultivator and he was also a City Lord, so the weight of him was not light.
"Master Long's words are reasonable. Zheng Ji's death is not's fault. Lingyun City and his family's grudge against each other, as well as the relationship between Wang Hao and his family, are not suitable for County Palace and the other two sects to interfere." Palace Chief Zhao pondered for a moment, knowing that he had no way to refute, he complied with Master Long's words.
When the higher ups of the Misty Rain House heard this, they were extremely anxious, but they did not dare to interrupt again.
However, Palace Chief Zhao has not completely given up. Your Master Long needs dignity, and I represent your County Palace. I also need it.
"However, my group of four following orders came here to capture Wang Hao, and most importantly, it wasn't because of these matters. Zheng Ji's death was also outside of our expectations, and wasn't under County Palace's orders." Palace Chief Zhao changed the topic and changed the focus of his conversation.
Wang Hao's crimes were not only limited to these, they were also committed against the interests of the County Palace.
Master Long's eyes were still cold as he said: "Then what happened? Tell me about it! "
"Remember, do not frame Wang Hao. Otherwise, with Great Elder's temper, he would not be able to explain things peacefully like this Villa Master."
When Master Long said this, the hearts of the four suddenly jumped.
Oh my god! Your Jindan Nine Circulation alone is enough to scare us. Do you want to use the Taoist Master Yunxiao to scare us again?!
The corner of Palace Chief Zhao's mouth twitched unnoticeably. He had planned a rather strict explanation at the beginning, but because of the Taoist Master Yunxiao's deterrence, he had no choice but to change it slightly.
"Haha, it's not a big crime, it's just that after Wang Hao caused a ruckus in the Mingzhou City, he asked the County Palace to return the tax. This request is in violation of the empire's laws, adding that the sects and families have also been asked to return the money, that's why I, four people, came here to investigate." Palace Chief Zhao smiled euphemistically, he was already looking for a way out.
Master Long also felt that it was more or less enough. After all, County Palace had the backing of an official, adding the three sects, no matter how strong they were, it was still a little hard to bear.
"I, Long Yi, have heard of this matter, and it seems to be due to Zheng Family's corruption, through many years of usurping power to harm the citizens, stealing money, Wang Hao is young and vigorous, upright and righteous, and naturally wants to seek justice for the citizens, and not only there is no crime, Palace Chief Zhao, you also have to praise him." Master Long once again put on a gentle and refined smile, and threw the pot to the main culprit, Zheng Family, saving her face.
Seeing that, the Palace Chief Zhao was dissatisfied, but he still smiled: "Haha, what Master Long said is true, I am truly enlightened, Wang Hao's actions exposed the evil deeds of the Zheng Family, and helped us County Palace cleanse the bad wind, not only is he innocent, he even has merits!"
"Then please give your rewards to Palace Chief Zhao!" Master Long smiled warmly, and did not mention anything else.
Palace Chief Zhao also did not mention anything wrong with Wang Hao. He flipped his palm and took out a storage ring, and said with a smile: "After this mission is completed, Wang Hao is innocent and has rendered meritorious.
"Sure!" I thank Palace Chief Zhao on behalf of Wang Hao. " Master Long waved his sleeves, and threw his storage ring towards Wang Hao who was on the ground.
Wang Hao, who was meditating, had been paying attention to the situation in the air the entire time.
When he saw the storage ring fly over, he immediately stretched out his hand and sucked it in, then happily accepted it.
After inspecting the items within the storage ring, Wang Hao could not help but smile.
As expected of the County Palace's Vice Palace Chief, the moment she attacked, she was different. The resources inside were still quite abundant, and were far from what Zheng Ji could compare to.
