178: If you are dissatisfied, I will accompany you at any time

Imperial Palace.

On the dragon throne, the Xia Emperor was holding a memorial to read.

“Reporting to Your Majesty, the Third Prince has been taken to the Tianquan Division.”

Eunuch Huang respectfully bowed to the Xia Emperor.

The Xia Emperor said indifferently, “Imprison him for half a month, let him reflect properly. If he dares to resist, break his legs directly.”

“Understood.”

Eunuch Huang nodded slightly.

The Xia Emperor asked again, “What about Lumin from the Saint Academy?”

Eunuch Huang smiled and said, “He was also taken back to the Tianquan Division by Xie Weilou. The Captian of the Tianquan Division even drew his sword in Haoran Hall at the time.”

The Xia Emperor was a little surprised, “Drew his sword in Haoran Hall?”

The Tianquan Division’s blades contained malevolent energy. Those in Haoran Hall, who prided themselves on cultivating Haoran Righteous Qi, should not casually allow people to draw swords there.

Eunuch Huang chuckled, “Xie Weilou said at the time that the Tianquan Division’s blades cut down demons and evil, fought ghosts and gods, eliminated traitors, and were things of Haoran. Using things of Haoran in Haoran Hall is naturally not a problem.”

“Silver-tongued, he can talk black into white.”

The Xia Emperor gave a wry smile.

However, Xie Weilou’s actions this time made him very satisfied.

Taking Lumin away protected the dignity of the Tianquan Division, and also protected the dignity of him, the Emperor. After all, the authority of the Tianquan Division came from him.

“Xie Weilou has rendered meritorious service in this investigation. How does Your Majesty plan to reward him?”

Eunuch Huang asked.

The Xia Emperor said, “How about making him a Consort?”

“……”

Eunuch Huang did not dare to say more.

The Xia Emperor put down the memorial, “After this case is over, have him come to the Imperial Palace. I plan to give him some good things!”

——

Tianquan Division.

There are three major prisons: First Hall, Second Hall, each with one.

And above these two prisons, there is a third prison, which is the Eighteen Levels of Hell, also where Xie Weilou was before. Most of the prisoners held inside are vicious cultivators.

The Eighteen Levels of Hell is the most heavily guarded, directly under the jurisdiction of the Siming (Sī Mìng). Each level of prison has an extremely mysterious Prison Warden.

It is rumored that these Prison Wardens are powerful and of extraordinary origin. Some of them are even major criminals of the Tianquan Division who eventually became prison guardians. Some of them are even more terrifying than Pacification Envoy Baili Changqing.

Once one enters the Eighteen Levels of Hell, without permission, even a Dragon Transformation Realm expert would find it difficult to leave alive.

At this moment, inside a cell in the Eighteen Levels of Hell.

Yan Wuchen lay on the straw. He glanced outside and happened to see Xie Weilou walking over with Lumin.

“He actually really brought the Saint Academy mentor…”

Yan Wuchen muttered to himself.

He was naturally displeased when he was brought here earlier.

But at this moment, seeing that Lumin had also been brought, some of the resentment in his heart dissipated.

Xie Weilou stretched out his hand, and Zhang Long stepped forward to open the adjacent cell door. He looked at Lumin and said with a smile, “Senior Lu, you’ll be staying in the cell next to the Third Prince from now on! The Tianquan Division’s environment is harsh, and ordinary people who come in will definitely suffer, but you are different. You are a Saint Academy mentor, so there’s no need for you to suffer.”

After speaking, he looked at Zhang Long, “Remember, both the Third Prince and Senior Lu cannot suffer. All coarse tea and plain food, cabbage and tofu, are to be exempted!”

He had been in the Eighteen Levels of Hell for three years and had not been tortured, but his life was not easy. At the most difficult times, rats would chew through his shoes, and he could only make his own straw sandals.

Cabbage and tofu for every meal was actually quite good. He had also seen some major criminals who had been imprisoned for several years, only eating once a month, and most of the time, they ate rats!

“Understood.”

Zhang Long bowed.

“……”

Lumin glanced at Xie Weilou and walked into the cell with an indifferent expression.

Xie Weilou stared at Lumin’s back and said with a faint smile, “If Senior Lu is not convinced, This Young Master is always ready to oblige.”

“Kid, remember what you said.”

Lumin said coldly.

A dignified Saint Academy mentor being brought to the Tianquan Division by a junior made him feel very humiliated.

He dared not provoke Song Shenfeng, so he naturally held a grudge against Xie Weilou.

Xie Weilou said with a smile, “Inside these Eighteen Levels of Hell, there are actually some Mystic Form and even Dragon Transformation Realm experts imprisoned. I’ll find them to spar with Senior then.”

“You…”

Lumin’s face changed.

Xie Weilou ignored Lumin and looked at Yan Wuchen, “Third Prince, do you have anything to say?”

“Nothing to say!”

Yan Wuchen closed his eyes. Xie Weilou did things unconventionally. If he continued to speak, this guy might really find those powerful prisoners to deal with him.

“……”

Xie Weilou smiled faintly and turned to leave.

Not long after.

He arrived outside another cell, which was where he had stayed before. Next to it was another cell, which originally had a drunkard inside, but now the drunkard was gone.

“Kid, what are you looking at?”

A sinister voice sounded. A withered, emaciated old man in a gray robe walked over. His body exuded a deathly aura, and his hands were pale, like the claws of a ghost.

Upon seeing the old man, Xie Weilou quickly bowed, “Greetings, Senior Tu.”

Butcher Ghost Hand was the Prison Warden here. His strength was terrifying. Lin Qinghuang seemed to have mentioned once that this Butcher was a Dragon Transformation Realm expert.

The Butcher stared at Xie Weilou, “Tell me, what are you looking at?”

Xie Weilou pointed to the adjacent cell, “I’m very curious where the drunkard inside went.”

“Hmph!”

The Butcher snorted coldly, unwilling to answer the question.

Xie Weilou took out a flask of fine wine from his sleeve and handed it to the Butcher, “A jar of fine wine, a filial offering to Senior Tu. The person who just came in is Lumin from the Saint Academy. I trouble Senior to take good care of him! Oh, right, the other one is the Third Prince. Senior, please don’t be biased and take care of him as well!”

Lumin was displeased with him?

Then don’t blame him for treating the other party like a Japanese person to mess with.

As for Yan Wuchen, he also needed to be taken care of incidentally.

“Heh! The kid knows how to behave!”

The Butcher snatched the fine wine, a smile appearing on his old face.

He was a Prison Warden, but also a major criminal. Without special permission, he could not leave here, so he rarely got fine wine.

“Thank you, Senior.”

Xie Weilou bowed and turned to leave.

The Butcher ignored Xie Weilou. He took a big gulp of fine wine and then looked at the cell Xie Weilou had pointed to, a hint of apprehension in his eyes.

After exiting the Eighteen Levels of Hell.

Xie Weilou happened to see Baili Changqing. He stepped forward and bowed, “Greetings, Pacification Envoy.”

Baili Changqing pondered, “News from the palace says that the Third Prince only needs to be imprisoned for half a month. Also, regarding the things he did, including all the evidence… it all points to Xue Li…”

The implication was that Xue Li would take the blame, and the Third Prince was innocent!

As he said this, he couldn’t help but look at Xie Weilou, wanting to see his expression.

Xie Weilou’s expression did not change in the slightest, “I am just a small Captain. I will do whatever the superiors say.”

A strange look appeared in Baili Changqing’s eyes. He had thought Xie Weilou would be very displeased to hear that Yan Wuchen would only be imprisoned for half a month, but he didn’t expect him to be so calm.

He added, “As for the rest of the people, you may deal with them as you wish! After the matter is handled, go to the Imperial Palace.”

“Understood.”

Xie Weilou nodded slightly.
