25: Qu Zhiyin breaks into the Law Enforcement Hall
“How dare you!”
“Presumptuous!”
Several powerful auras shot out from the Enforcement Hall, instantly surrounding Qu Zhiyin.
“Which peak’s Disciple are you? How dare you trespass into the Enforcement Hall and openly destroy its plaque? What crime have you committed?!”
The person leading them, seeing the plaque split in half, had a face ashen with fury, and he questioned her, seething with rage.
Qu Zhiyin’s gaze swept over them, her expression growing colder, and her red lips parted, her tone full of sarcasm.
“Two Divine Sea Realm cultivators and ten Naling Realm cultivators, what a grand display.”
“But… it’s not enough!”
With a soft shout, Qu Zhiyin swept her jade hand, her azure robes fluttering, and a terrifying power erupted, instantly sending everyone flying.
“I told you, tell your Hall Master to get out here!”
Pfft…
Everyone fell, spitting blood, staring in shock at the Azure-robed Woman before them!
Deep within the Enforcement Hall.
Shen Ruyu felt this aura and instantly awoke.
He frowned slightly, his vast Divine Sense instantly covering the entire Enforcement Hall, and sensing what was happening at the entrance, a hint of anger flashed across his face before he vanished from his spot.
“Who exactly are you? What you’re doing is completely suicidal!” The Divine Sea Realm Disciple who had been leading them wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes fixed angrily on the woman.
He dared not act rashly again; this woman was too terrifying, and he was no match for her.
“I told you, tell your Hall Master to come out!” Qu Zhiyin did not continue to attack him, still repeating the same demand.
“You… fine, I’ll go invite the Hall Master now. Don’t regret it then!” This Disciple dared not retort; he also knew that since the Elders were not present, only the Hall Master could subdue this person.
He turned to go in and seek out the Hall Master.
“No need, I’m already here!”
At this moment, a low voice came from within.
Immediately, a flash of light, and Shen Ruyu’s figure appeared before everyone.
He looked at the chaotic scene before him, frowned slightly, and asked, “What happened?!”
The Divine Sea Realm Disciple who was about to go find him was overjoyed to see the newcomer. He quickly approached, explaining everything.
“Hall Master, for some unknown reason, this person destroyed our plaque without a word and injured all our people.”
“Please, Hall Master, take action and severely punish this person!”
As his words fell.
The others also pleaded.
“Please, Hall Master, take action and severely punish this person!”
After learning what had happened, Shen Ruyu’s expression grew even more somber. He turned and began to scrutinize Qu Zhiyin.
“May I ask which peak’s Disciple you are, and why are you targeting my Enforcement Hall?”
He narrowed his eyes, vaguely feeling that the woman before him was very familiar.
For a moment, he couldn’t place her, but to avoid misunderstanding, he decided to clarify things first.
Qu Zhiyin showed a strange expression upon seeing the newcomer.
The current Hall Master of the Enforcement Hall was actually him!
In that case, this matter would be much easier to handle!
She suddenly smiled, her voice gentle, saying, “Junior Brother Shen, it’s been a hundred years since we last met. I didn’t expect you to become the esteemed Hall Master of this Enforcement Hall.”
“Could it be that Senior Sister I have aged so much that even Junior Brother no longer recognizes me?!”
That’s right, the Hall Master of the Enforcement Hall before her, Shen Ruyu, was one of the Personal Disciples of the same generation as her back then!
Hmm?
Upon hearing these words.
Shen Ruyu’s pupils slightly constricted, his gaze fixed intently on Qu Zhiyin.
After a long while, he finally spoke with uncertainty.
“You are… Senior Apprentice Sister Qu?”
“Indeed.” Qu Zhiyin nodded gently in response.
Boom!
A smile immediately bloomed on Shen Ruyu’s face, and he excitedly said, “Senior Sister, you’ve finally decided to come back!”
“Heh heh, I’ve been outside for a while and missed the Sect a bit, so I came back!” Qu Zhiyin did not offer much explanation.
The surrounding people exchanged glances.
How did things suddenly turn into a friendly chat?
And, they seemed to have heard something incredible?
This woman before them.
She was actually their Hall Master’s Senior Sister?
Doesn’t that mean, according to seniority, they should call her Senior Martial Uncle?
Thinking of this, everyone felt distressed.
Was this beating for nothing?
Shen Ruyu also felt the surrounding gazes and then gave a wry smile. “Senior Sister, it’s good that you’re back, but you didn’t have to give me such a grand greeting, did you?”
Now he was a little vexed; what a commotion this had caused.
“My apologies, Junior Brother Shen. If I had known you were the Hall Master of the Enforcement Hall, I wouldn’t have come knocking in this manner!” Qu Zhiyin said helplessly.
She also hadn’t expected such a coincidence.
“What exactly happened to make Senior Sister so angry?” Shen Ruyu pondered for a moment, his expression turning serious.
He knew Qu Zhiyin’s character; she wouldn’t act like this without reason.
“See for yourself!” Qu Zhiyin took out a Jade Slip and threw it towards Shen Ruyu.
Inside were all the records she had collected concerning the Yang Family over the past few decades.
Shen Ruyu took the Jade Slip and then released his Divine Sense to investigate it.
After a long time, Shen Ruyu’s face turned ashen. With a crack, he crushed the Jade Slip!
Then, he gritted his teeth and roared, “Good, good, good, a bunch of scoundrels!”
At this moment, people continuously began to appear around them; the commotion just now had attracted many people’s attention.
When they saw the Enforcement Hall’s plaque broken in half at the entrance, they couldn’t help but grow curious.
Who dared to cause trouble at the Enforcement Hall!
Shen Ruyu saw more and more people gathering, and his expression grew even worse.
“What are you looking at? What’s there to see? All of you, get out!”
Shen Ruyu’s temper flared, like an enraged lion cub, instantly scaring everyone away!
“Let’s go, Senior Sister, come inside!”
“Alright!”
On the other side.
After Elder Song sent out several messages, he arrived at the entrance of the Enforcement Hall, filled with worry.
When he saw the Enforcement Hall’s main gate, he was completely stunned.
He quickly asked a Disciple who was tidying up nearby.
“What happened here?”
The Disciple was already feeling annoyed and was about to retort, but upon turning and seeing the newcomer, he immediately greeted him respectfully.
“Greetings, Elder Song!”
Elder Song waved his hand, “No need for formalities. First, answer me, what happened here?”
The Disciple suddenly stammered, “N-nothing, it was just accidentally done by someone!”
Elder Song’s mouth twitched slightly.
Wasn’t this clearly trying to fool him?
However, he was not in the mood to pursue these matters now, and he politely asked.
“By the way, where is your Deputy Hall Master? Is he inside?”
The Disciple replied, “The Deputy Hall Master is not here right now, but the Hall Master has already sent someone to find him. He should be here soon. If you have an urgent matter, you can go inside and wait!”
Elder Song didn’t think much of it. Since the Deputy Hall Master would be back soon, he might as well go in and wait.
“Alright, this old man understands. You may continue with your work!”
With that, Elder Song walked inside.
Inside the Enforcement Hall.
Shen Ruyu and Qu Zhiyin sat on chairs, quietly waiting for the Deputy Hall Master to arrive.
Many things were already clear to Shen Ruyu.
This time, there would likely be a major purge to prevent these parasites from harming the Sect and its people.
At this moment.
Elder Song suddenly walked in.
The gazes of everyone present froze for a moment.
