133: Interrogation of Mu Yaoling

The explosions ceased abruptly, and the ground covered in ruins proved that multiple fierce battles had taken place here.

With the arrival of the six Alliance Leaders and the Hall Master, the stone hanging in the hearts of Mayor Cai Weiyi and Law Enforcement Brigade Captain Zhao Guangyuan finally fell.

"How did you know we were hunting someone down?"

Hall Master Shen Duanhong of the Tribunal Hall looked at Lu Yuan.

Not only him, but the Alliance Leaders were also curious.

Hunting that person was top secret, known to no more than five people.

Clearly, Lu Yuan was not one of those five people.

"Lu Yeli told me that the Alliance Leaders were having her and Ke Yueyao test a Spirit Skill that tracks the fusion of Space Attribute and Time Attribute," Lu Yuan said.

"You could deduce it based on just that?"

"Of course not, there's a lot more." Lu Yuan elaborated on his analysis.

Principal Lao Qiyuan, a God Emperor Realm Eight-Star, was severely injured. According to regulations, the Great Elder of the Seven Alliances and One Hall should have come to Pengcheng, but instead, an Elder came... "That's right, we are indeed hunting a person."

Shen Duanhong nodded in admission.

At the same time, Lu Yuan learned that person's name.

Lu Jingyuan!

"Lao Qiyuan and Lu Jingyuan have a blood feud. He killed Lao Qiyuan's wife and two daughters. As for why we are hunting him..." Shen Duanhong showed a look of recollection.

"The matter concerning Lu Jingyuan cannot be finished in a day and a night. You just need to know that he deserves to die and almost caused Huaxia to be destroyed!"

It's that serious?

Lu Yuan thought, no wonder so many Alliance Leaders were hunting Lu Jingyuan.

Judging by the Principal's actions, even though twenty God Emperor Realm Experts set up a dragnet, Lu Jingyuan still managed to escape!

The Space Attribute is inherently good at escaping, let alone Lu Jingyuan, who possesses both Space and Time Attributes.

As if sensing Lu Yuan's thoughts, Shen Duanhong smiled indifferently.

"If it were a life-and-death battle, Lu Jingyuan would not be a match for the Supreme Alliance Leader and me, but if he insists on escaping, no one can stop him."

They chase and Lu Jingyuan flees. This situation has lasted for many years.

After countless pursuits, only this time did they have the best chance.

Yet Lu Jingyuan still managed to escape!

During the conversation, Mayor Cai Weiyi led several Law Enforcement Officers over.

"Greetings, Hall Master!"

"Mhm."

"Hall Master, how should Lu Yuan and Fu Jingjie be dealt with?" Cai Weiyi asked.

He did not mention Tang Jinghui.

Tang Jinghui was interrupted before he could even cast his Forbidden Curse.

Lu Yuan and Fu Jingjie were different; these two genuinely took action inside the city.

Especially Lu Yuan, who first destroyed the Hengsheng Headquarters and then killed more than a dozen people.

Moreover, the impact caused was extremely severe; the citizens gathered in the city center alone numbered over a million!

"They will most likely be sent to prison," thought Zhao Guangyuan, Captain of the Law Enforcement Brigade.

He did not dislike Lu Yuan, and neither did those who knew the history between Lu Yuan and Prosperous.

It had to be admitted that Prosperous had pushed Lu Yuan too hard.

Under such immense pressure, anyone would fight to the death.

They just hadn't expected Lu Yuan's desperate struggle to be so insane!

Shen Duanhong did not immediately state how Lu Yuan would be handled; instead, he tossed a storage ring to Cai Weiyi.

"Take a look. This is the Prosperous you vigorously supported."

Shen Duanhong said.

Cai Weiyi was confused.

As the Mayor of Pengcheng City, considering economic and other factors, Cai Weiyi decided to vigorously support Prosperous.

Therefore, the Hengsheng Headquarters was built in the most Prosperous area of the city center and was the tallest building in Pengcheng!

Taking out a thick stack of documents from the storage ring, Cai Weiyi was horrified by what he saw.

Prosperous had always been colluding with demons, and even the Ancient Professionals of the Great Shun Dynasty, who had recently caused a huge uproar, were inextricably linked to Prosperous!

"This..."

Cai Weiyi looked at the people on the list.

All Practitioners of Prosperous above the Transcendent Realm were involved in colluding with demons and conspiring with the Great Shun Dynasty.

Among them were fifteen Law Realm supervisors and eight Divine Power Realm employees.

"I'll send people to arrest them immediately!" Cai Weiyi was sweating profusely.

He was right to support Prosperous, but who knew Prosperous had such guts.

"Lu Yuan, your only remaining problems are disturbing the public late at night and destroying the Hengsheng Headquarters," Shen Duanhong said with a smile.

In a few words, he turned a capital offense into the minor offense of disturbing the public.

Disturbing the public, destroying buildings... Lu Yuan looked at the dense crowd of citizens who had retreated thousands of meters away, and the ruined site next to him, engulfed in flames.

"How much money do I need to pay in compensation?" Lu Yuan asked.

"I'll pay! Our Cangqiong Chamber of Commerce will pay!"

When he heard that Lu Yuan was innocent and only needed to pay compensation.

Vice President Fu Dechang of the Cangqiong Chamber of Commerce instantly perked up, walked up to Lu Yuan, and raised his hand.

"Greetings, Hall Master Shen. As long as it's something that can be settled with money, the Cangqiong Chamber of Commerce is willing to take responsibility for Lu Yuan!" Fu Dechang promised.

The Cangqiong Chamber of Commerce, the number one chamber of commerce on Blue Star.

All countries, big and small, on Blue Star have branches of the Cangqiong Chamber of Commerce.

The money earned by this chamber of commerce cannot even be described as rivaling a nation's wealth; rumors say that sixty percent of Blue Star's wealth is held by the boss of the Cangqiong Chamber of Commerce!

Vice President Fu Dechang?

Lu Yuan had seen him on television.

As early as after the Martial Examination concluded, the Cangqiong Chamber of Commerce had sent him a black gold membership card.

Holders of this card receive a 90% discount on all purchases at all branches on Blue Star, enjoying the most premium treatment.

"Hello, Lu Yuan." Fu Dechang smiled warmly and proactively shook hands with Lu Yuan.

"Is there anything you need me to do?"

Lu Yuan asked.

There is no such thing as a free lunch, and it is better to clarify some things beforehand.

"No need. Everything is a unilateral contribution from our Cangqiong Chamber of Commerce!" Fu Dechang's smile grew even richer.

Since Prosperous is gone, the Cangqiong Chamber of Commerce can replace Prosperous in the No Mans Land supply point business.

Everyone knows how lucrative the supply points are; they make money faster than robbing a bank!

Fu Dechang couldn't thank Lu Yuan enough—or rather, Lu Yuan had already paid the compensation!

"Since the Cangqiong Chamber of Commerce is willing to pay, this matter ends here," Shen Duanhong said.

Even if the Cangqiong Chamber of Commerce didn't pay, the Seven Alliances and One Hall would cover the cost.

They couldn't send Lu Yuan and Fu Jingjie away for such a minor incident.

The night returned to peace.

The Teleportation Array at the Pengcheng High-Speed Rail Station was undergoing emergency repairs, and Lu Yuan returned to his independent villa at the school.

"That was truly exciting."

In the living room, Fu Jingjie was still savoring the recent madness.

His clothes were re-pinned with the Wind-Splitting Alliance badge, proving that he was still serving as a Wind-Rending Alliance Elder.

"Congratulations, Teacher, on breaking through to the Saint Realm," Lu Yuan said, sitting on the sofa.

Compared to Fu Jingjie, who always maintained a reserved attitude toward Tang Jinghui, Lu Yuan was quite casual.

Saint Realm!

Experts of this level are few and far between, even within the Seven Alliances and One Hall.

"I have you to thank for that." Tang Jinghui sat upright.

Having broken through to the Saint Realm, he was the same as usual, speaking calmly and without excessive excitement.

It was just that after his injuries completely healed, Tang Jinghui's complexion was rosy, and he looked much younger.

"Where did you get fifty stalks of high-grade heaven and earth spirit treasure?" Tang Jinghui asked.

In fact, he had already calmly accepted the fate of death; Lu Yuan was the one who forcibly dragged him back from the gates of hell.

Fu Jingjie listened intently; he was also very curious.

"The Great Shun Dynasty!" Lu Yuan explained the entire sequence of events.

"You mean to say that these heaven and earth spirit treasures were originally prepared for the Emperor of the Great Shun Dynasty, but were obtained by you through a fluke, and then given to me?"

Tang Jinghui clarified the sequence of events.

According to historical records, the Emperor of the Great Shun Dynasty possessed both Fire and Gold Attributes.

At the same time, Fu Jingjie received a call.

"It seems I'll be busy for a while." Fu Jingjie stretched, making cracking sounds.

He had to immediately return to the Imperial Capital to interrogate Mu Yaoling, the Princess of the Great Shun Dynasty whom Lu Yuan had captured alive!
