The cold blade of the sword was pressed against Pan Zhenyuan's neck. In that instant, Pan Zhenyuan understood that he had hit a wall today.

An existence that could ignore his saber aura and scatter it afterwards must have stepped into the Earth rank. Pan Zhenyuan gulped and raised his neck, not daring to make the slightest movement.

"Earth grade?" Pan Zhenyuan looked at her with a hopeful expression on his face.

There were a lot of experts from different martial institutions in the Land of Daxing. However, the cultivation base of these masters was at most Xuan level. Therefore, in Pan Zhenyuan's subconscious, he wished that SiXue Yi was only a Xuan level master.

However, looking at the unshakable expression on her face, Pan Zhenyuan's heart turned cold.

On the path of martial arts, the sky and the earth were dark and yellow in color. As long as one was able to stabilize his or her inner strength, he or she would be a yellow level cultivator. Furthermore, the reason why the auras had turned into true qi was due to the fact that weapons were considered Xuan Artifacts. This was because of the high rank in Da Ning or the fact that most of the experts from the big sects had stepped into this realm.

As for the Earth grade item, this was the ability to transform true qi into astral form. It could split mountains and split rocks between fists, and split water between blades and swords. One person's strength could no longer be measured from an ordinary person's point of view. Those who had entered this realm could be said to be the backbone of any sect, major sect, or powerful figures within or outside the imperial court.

In addition, the rarity of Earth rank experts made these experts stand apart from the masses. Anyone with a high status would try to win over an Earth rank master. Even if they couldn't, they still had to be careful.

Earth rank treasure already had such a status in this world. It was a heaven rank treasure that was beyond the ordinary, and it was already a celestial being. Such an existence was not something that the ensign of a small city gate guard like Pan Zhenyu could guess.

At this point, knowing that Si Xueyi was an Earth rank master, Pan Zhenyu's heart was filled with despair. He had already decided that he must find out who brought such an Earth rank master into this small City Guards Institution.

The young master Pan by the side was also staring with wide eyes, as if he couldn't believe what had just happened.

Who was his father? He was a lieutenant of the City Guards Institution. His cultivation base was rare as he stepped into the Xuan Core realm, and he was highly regarded by the Liang Family. In the Azure Province, there were many people whose status and position exceeded Pan Zhenyu. However, these people still retained a bit of respect for Pan Zhenyu.

And in front of him, the father that Pan Mingping had always relied on was now being stabbed in the neck by the white-robed youth.

Even though Pan Mingping was a very arrogant person, he was definitely not a fool. To be able to deal with his father in such a straightforward manner, he was definitely not someone he could provoke. Thinking of how Jiang Youyu had mocked him time and time again, Pan Mingping suddenly felt a tinge of regret.

"It was I, Pan Tong, who did not recognize Mt. Tai and disturbed the three of you. Pan Zhenyu sucked in a breath of cold air as he looked at the situation before him. He had already made up his mind. Resisting the urge to cry, he said to Si Xue Yi, "This is my little wish. I'll buy some wine for the three of you to moisturize your throats."

Pan Zhenyu was a greedy person. He had used quite a few methods to get money for his position as the city guard's captain. However, the city guard could only manage a small area like the one in front of the city gates. The gold notes in his hand were almost half of Pan Zhenyu's wealth.

"Not bad, not bad, I didn't know that. Lieutenant Pan sure is cunning." "SiXue Yi hasn't replied yet. Jiang Youyu has already accepted the intentions of this Pan Zhenyu on her behalf." "Come on, put down your swords. General Pan isn't someone who doesn't know his place. Since this is what you're thinking, why not give him a chance."

As Jiang Youyu spoke, she moved Lieutenant Pan's tender neck away with the greatsword in hand.

Pan Zhenyu felt the sharp light that seemed to be able to take his life away from his neck as he slowly moved away. Looking at Jiang Youyu, his eyes were filled with gratitude. "Yes, yes. Young Hero is truly magnanimous. Give me a chance."

She looked at Jiang Youyu who was blinking at her with a bit of confusion, but she still put the sword away. This sword was a bit too heavy, so it would be a bit difficult to hold it without using his cultivation. After all, he still needed it. However, as she spoke, she kept the gold notes into her own pocket. In this way, she wanted to open her mouth.

He had been the one to contribute throughout the entire process, and he was also the one who had to contribute through injuries. How could Jiang Youzi accept this? He might as well have just accepted it, but why was he so shameless as to put it all in his own pocket?

Seemingly seeing through Si Xueyi's thoughts, Jiang Youyu grinned, "I'll keep this kind of thought for now. Don't worry, I'll be able to save your share when we get back."

Jiang Youzi patted her shoulder as if she was one of her own and turned to look at Pan Zhenyu.

"Lieutenant Pan, ah, we have been wrongly accused. Look at the three of us, we can tell that they are all good people, but those city guards of yours are just saying that we are some kind of gangster. When Jiang Youyu said this, he tried his best to make his face look as if he had suffered a great injustice. He then looked at Pan Zhenyu, who was gnashing his teeth as he sized up the green skins of the people in the City Guards Institution, and continued, "You said that the three of us have to rely on our faces to survive. If these individuals want to torture us to the point where our faces can be broken by blowing bullets, then it would be a disaster for us. Therefore, our family's little division accidentally caused a little too much self-defense. After that, they actually wanted to use you, Lieutenant Pan, to harm us three good people. This group of people were truly devoid of conscience and deceiving the world. We have also heard of Lord Yu Pan's righteousness in this city. These people are undoubtedly trying to trap General Pan in a situation of injustice. "

Jiang Youyu's mouth was parched, but when he saw the cold sweat that broke out on Pan Zhenyu's forehead, he said seriously, "I plead for Lieutenant Pan to be able to find out the truth and return the innocence of the three of us."

Pan Zhenyu knew that something bad was about to happen when he heard Jiang Youyu's words. What kind of morals did his brother and his second son have? How could he not know? Although Pan Zhenyu had thoughts of killing the two of them, it was still just a thought. Tiger poison wasn't something he could eat, not to mention that he had a blood brother.

Then how could General Pan return the innocence that Jiang Youyu wanted? The answer was yes.

"I will definitely not worry about this matter. Please do not worry, I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly and give the three of you an explanation. However, it's already too late, and the City Guards Institution is a little too small. If it's any of you who have left an address, I will immediately inform the three of you if there's any result? " Pan Zhenyu prepared to use the "drag" spell. He wasn't a saint, and this matter was caused by his own brother and son working together. He definitely wouldn't be able to give any sort of explanation. At this point, he could only persuade these three people to leave first. As for how he was going to account for it, he would think of a way to deceive them.

"From what Lieutenant Pan said, I have complete confidence in Lieutenant Pan's ability. Everyone here is here to interrogate them one by one. If it doesn't work out, then we'll torture them to death. Isn't that the truth?" That kid is still leaning on that chair. "How about I help Lieutenant Pan interrogate him? He doesn't look like a good person at first glance."

General Pan looked at Pan Mingping, who was pointed at him by Jiang Youyu, and a hint of anger appeared on his face. However, after looking at Si Xue Yi, who was standing next to Jiang Youyu, acting as if he was just watching a show, General Pan's anger was suppressed.

"Men, lock Pan Mingping up. I'll interrogate him myself later." The two green furs beside Pan Mingping were quite quick-witted. When they heard Pan Zhenyu's order, they immediately lifted him up from the chair and walked towards the inner hall's back door.

Jiang You Yu gave a cough, glanced at the two cyan skins, and laughed lightly, "It's better to interrogate them as soon as possible, I don't think Lieutenant Pan is busy right now, why don't we do it in front of us first."

Jiang Youyu entered the inner hall and casually picked a chair to sit on before looking at Pan Zhenyu.

At this moment, a figure ran through the city guard station's entrance, probably in a hurry, so he didn't see the situation inside the city guard station. "Big brother, where's Commander Liang looking for you?"

As soon as he finished, he looked at the eerie silence of the City Guards Institution, then looked at Jiang Youyu who was sitting in the inner hall, and then looked at the gloomy face of General Pan in the courtyard.

"The three of you, are you willing to give this matter up to the next person? My attitude is already too low." Pan Zhenyu glared at his younger brother before turning to look at Jiang Youyu.

He could already tell that this Jiang Youyu was obviously the leader of the trio. Yet, this Jiang Chen insisted on holding onto this matter. He kept lowering himself, but the young man before him did not do anything. This made Pan Zhenyu lose his patience.

Jiang Youyu looked at Pan Zhenyu with a smile that was not a smile. He picked up the teapot on the table beside him and poured himself a cup of tea. If he talked too much, he would become really thirsty. First, he would drink a cup of wine to moisten his throat.

"It's not that I'm not giving face to you, Lieutenant Pan. Just ask this person who just entered, I've already told him that capturing me is easy, but letting me go will be difficult." What I said myself, it can't be slapping my own face, right? " Jiang Youyu smiled, but there was a hint of helplessness in her tone.

Pan Zhenyu took in a deep breath, trying his best to keep his voice calm. "Then, I wonder what it is you can do about it."

Pan Zhenyu was already prepared to bleed again. After all, it was his own son on one side and his own brother on the other. He didn't have any other choice. If it was anyone else, he wouldn't bother to care.

"Pass? "It's very simple. As long as you give me a cyan white, this matter will be over." Jiang Youyu's request had always been simple, but it was a simple request for Jiang Youyu, but it was difficult for Pan Zhenyu.

It took a lot of effort for them to help the two to their respective seats. One was the head of the Azure Province while the other was at the City Guards Institution. It was unknown how many people were keeping watch over these two seats. However, since Jiang You Yu had returned his innocence according to his request, the two of them naturally could not continue to dominate the other two seats.

Pan Zhenyu took in a deep breath before raising his head to stare at Jiang Youyu, "Fine, if you want me to prove my innocence, then I'll give you my innocence." "Pan Zhenyong, commander of the Qingzhou City Guard Army, abused his power and joined forces to carry out private punishments. Right now, our Qingzhou Battalion Commander-in-Chief Pan Zhenyu commands us to hold both of them in custody."

Pan Zhenyu spoke in a single breath, and then Pan Zhenyong, who was standing next to the door, rushed in front of Pan Zhenyu, shouting crazily, "Pan Zhenyu, have you gone crazy? How much did I pay to sit on this man's seat? Did you say it was for me?"

Pan Zhenyu looked at the crazed Pan Zhenyong with disgust before snorting, "Drag him out."

Qing Pi, who was in the courtyard, seemed to have seen through Pan Zhenyu's determination. He looked at the crazy Pan Zhenyong, and in the end, under the pressure of Pan Zhenyu, two of them went up and restrained him.

"Sir, are you satisfied with this situation?" Pan Zhenyu took in a deep breath and looked at Jiang Youyu deeply. Then, he turned to Jiang Youyu and asked.

Jiang Youyu nodded without denying anything. She then looked at the entrance of the City Guards Institution, "What? You've been watching for a while. Why haven't you come out to meet me?"

After finishing all the tea in the cup, Jiang You Yu stood up and looked at the gate as she said this. Not long after he finished speaking, a handsome figure appeared outside the courtyard door.

"I am Liang Family's Liang Zong. I didn't expect to have met Young Master Jiang so soon." After this person entered the courtyard, he paid no heed to the chaos within the City Guards Institution. It was precisely the Commander of the Azure Province, General Liang Feng Ji.

"Lord Governor." The people in the courtyard bowed towards Liang Cangji, while Pan Zhenyu also walked up to Liang Cangji and bowed, "This subordinate's teaching is not good, please punish him, milord."

Liang Cangji turned to look at Pan Zhenyu with a smile on his face.

"Pa!"

A resounding slap across the face of the entire courtyard caused Pan Zhenyu's cheeks to swell up rapidly.

"Tsk tsk tsk, the face of the Governor is loud and clear. However, there's no need to discipline a subordinate like this in front of me. I don't want to see Young Master Liang put on a show. Alright, this also proves my innocence. Since Mister Liang gave me a show, I'll be leaving first. " Jiang Youyu clasped his fists towards Liang Cangji, ignoring the embarrassment on his face as he led Old Gu and Si Xueyi out of the courtyard.

However, seeing that there was already a quick-witted city gate guard pulling a carriage to stop at the entrance of the City Guards Institution, Jiang Youyu, who was preparing to board the carriage, suddenly recalled something and greeted him from afar. "Young Master Liang, remember to bring that treasured sword worth a thousand taels to my residence."

With that, the carriage slowly left the City Guards Institution.

Liang Zhen Ji glanced at Pan Zhenyu, and then at the short sword lying on the floor in the courtyard. The corners of Liang Zhen Ji's mouth twitched uncontrollably.
