162: Chapter 164 Li Dou is actually a lunatic

Just as Lin Kuang was about to act, a Law Enforcement Elder from the Cultivation Alliance burst into the arena with a team of Cultivators and checked a portrait.

They immediately surrounded Li Dou, and the Elder shouted, "Li Dou, we have received multiple complaints in Xuanwu City regarding you blocking roads, committing robbery, and forcing duels!"

"Please come with us!"

"Ah? A Law Enforcement Elder... of the Cultivation Alliance? I... I committed robbery? I... I... Is there some misunderstanding?" Due to his previous excitement and the sudden appearance of the Law Enforcement Elder, Li Dou began to stammer.

Li Li, who was halfway there, heard the list of crimes recited by the Alliance Elder, and her entire face darkened.

She rushed into the crowd to explain for her brother, "Elder, is there some mistake? My brother only sought private duels; he didn't commit any robberies!"

The Law Enforcement Elder looked at the pale Li Dou and then at Li Li, her expression completely unmoved. "You are his sister; your words cannot serve as evidence!"

"Furthermore, multiple Cultivators reported this together! I must take him away for investigation now!"

Hearing this, Li Dou's legs went weak with fear. He slumped to the ground, head in hands, trembling uncontrollably.

Xuanwu City had special regulations: forcing someone into a spar and injuring them without their consent was a serious crime.

Li Li was also in a panic. She had worked so hard to follow her brother and had paid off every Cultivator he injured. How could there be any she missed?

Li Li looked around the arena, desperately hoping someone would step forward to help her, but none of the ten thousand people in the stands moved.

Lin Kuang's lips twitched. He had no intention of helping this scum, but seeing Li Li's distressed expression, his heart softened after all.

Lin Kuang gave Li Dou another look of disgust and then walked over to Li Li's side.

In that moment, Lin Kuang's sudden appearance was like a beam of light shining into the darkness surrounding Li Li.

Li Li watched Lin Kuang's back with watery eyes, terrified that this light would slip away if she wasn't careful.

"Fellow Daoist, may I say something?"

When the Alliance Elder saw it was Lin Kuang, her stern, unquestionable expression gradually softened.

"Free speech is the right of every Cultivator, but even though you have helped the Alliance many times, we cannot allow a guilty Cultivator to go unpunished!"

"Of course, maintaining the fairness and justice of the Cultivation World is the duty of your Cultivation Alliance. I naturally won't interfere!" Lin Kuang looked back at Li Li. She was breathing rapidly, her eyes fixed on him, not daring to speak and interrupt.

"But what if these actions of his were non-subjective?"

"Non-subjective?" The Elder propped her chin in her hand, observing Li Dou with disbelief.

"Do you mean he has mental issues? For example, a damaged Divine Sense or an infestation of Heart Demons?"

Lin Kuang nodded, indicating it was exactly that.

"Then you take him for an examination first. If it really is a problem of that nature, he only needs to compensate those Cultivators for their medical expenses and undergo a few days of education with us!"

"Of course, the investigation must be conducted under our supervision, and the data must be backed up for us!"

"Take your brother for an examination, okay?" Lin Kuang turned to ask Li Li.

Li Li also knew that the Cultivation Alliance's methods could be compassionate. If they truly found her brother had a Heart Demon and could not control his actions, at most he would be sent to the Alliance's Recovery Room.

The Recovery Room allowed for regular visits, which was much better than going to a dungeon!

But did her brother really have mental issues? Li Li herself wasn't sure.

However, there was no other way to resolve the situation, so she bit her lip and nodded, agreeing to send her brother in for an examination.

The Cultivation Alliance Cultivators took the lead in escorting Li Dou away for the exam, while the Elder gave Lin Kuang a meaningful smile.

Only then did Lin Kuang see clearly that she was Sister Liu Ruyan! Before the match this morning, an Alliance Elder had found Lin Kuang to ask if Li Dou had maliciously attacked him.

Because Li Dou always liked to maliciously force others to fight, he was sent to spend a few days in a jail cell every year.

However, unlike those Loose Cultivators, Li Dou didn't use lethal force in duels, so he was always released once his time was up.

But this behavior seriously affected Xuanwu City's reputation, which gave the Alliance a massive headache. Having heard that Lin Kuang had also been threatened into a duel, they sent Liu Ruyan to investigate.

They also wanted to monitor him and nip such tendencies in the bud immediately...

However, this year Li Li had been secretly following her brother and settling conflicts in time, so he hadn't been sent inside yet.

"I saw what happened yesterday!" Liu Ruyan walked up to Lin Kuang and stroked his abs. "That little girl is quite green~"

"So it was you!" Lin Kuang suddenly remembered that when he left yesterday, someone had been sitting in the corner; it turned out to be Liu Ruyan.

"What's wrong? Am I not welcome?" Liu Ruyan gave a wicked smile.

"Mmh~" Lin Kuang let out a comfortable hum and allowed her to provide a bit of warmth.

"Hehe! I'm off now~" Liu Ruyan glanced at her glove, smiled at Lin Kuang, and followed the others.

"What happened? What happened?" Yu Xiaotang finally squeezed through and asked Lin Kuang curiously.

"Let's go, we're going to see if anything is wrong with Li Dou!" As he spoke, Lin Kuang took Yu Xiaotang's small hand and flew up.

"Hmm? This feeling... could it be..." Yu Xiaotang noticed something on Lin Kuang's hand.

Oh no! It's all my fault for not looking for him last night! How could he do something like this before going on stage?

It would be terrible if someone found out! No! I must satisfy him tonight!

...

"What? I'm mentally ill?" Li Dou jumped up after hearing the diagnostic results from several parties. "I can't be mentally ill!"

"Your Divine Sense is so fragile! You're most likely mentally ill!"

"I am not!"

"Mentally ill people usually don't say they're mentally ill!" Li Dou began to argue with the doctor like this.

Lin Kuang hadn't expected the Cultivation World to have a concept of mental illness, and that this jerk would actually have it!

But it wasn't surprising; it was indeed strange for an Alchemist to neglect his pharmacy and obsess over combat like a combat professional.

Seeing the doctor's diagnosis, Li Li breathed a sigh of relief. Her brother finally didn't have to go to the dungeon!

Once Liu Ruyan confirmed Li Dou had issues, she had him placed in the Recovery Room for treatment. She estimated he wouldn't be out for at least ten days to two weeks.

By this time, Li Dou had been forced to swallow a Medicinal Pill, and his emotions had normalized slightly. He took his sister's hand and said with relief,

"Sister, I didn't realize you'd grown so much! My memory of you is still when you were only half as tall as me..."

As he spoke, his mood shifted again, and he became agitated.

"Can you let me go watch Lin Kuang in the Grand Finals tomorrow?"

"As long as he's the champion, he can help me become stronger!"

At this point, the doctor shook his head and spoke slowly, "This obsession has already become a Heart Demon. It's best not to let him come into contact with any information regarding combat!"

"But the one who tied the knot must be the one to untie it. *Sigh*. Tomorrow, I'll go with you; I'll keep an eye on him from the side!"
