273: I understand the law.

Hearing his arrogant words, everyone was stunned. No one could have imagined that he would be able to say such things while facing so many Powerhouses.

Except for him, all ninety-nine supervisors were here, yet he still dared to speak so boastfully.

"Very well, you are very well. Just wait and see what happens next."

After delivering their threats, the group did not leave but waited in place. Li Haotian also watched them with interest.

"Why are so many of you still surrounding this place? Are you trying to fight me?"

Li Haotian stretched his limbs. Now that he had an Immortal Rank golden magical treasure worn on his body, the people before him were absolutely no match for him.

One had to know that the strongest among these people was only at the ninth level of the Earth Immortal Realm.

Even with their Magic Treasures, they would absolutely not be Li Haotian's opponents.

Li Haotian stretched his fists and walked directly out of his Immortal Cave. Everyone was startled upon seeing this. They had originally intended to directly besiege the other party's Immortal Cave and break through his defensive array, but now that he had walked out, it saved them that trouble.

"Kid, this is your own arrogance. Even if you are beaten to death today, you have to accept it!"

Everyone grinned, then lunged at him. Li Haotian showed no signs of fear. A layer of golden light suddenly flashed on his body, and then, with a swift stroke of his hand, heads rolled to the ground one by one.

Everyone was shocked by his ruthlessness. It was strictly forbidden to kill people easily here, and they only wanted to teach Li Haotian a lesson.

But Li Haotian had just killed them outright. This violated the law, and everyone's expression changed.

"Audacious! Who dares to kill in Anbei Royal City?"

A group of people wearing blue robes flew over. The aura they emitted was no lower than that of a Heavenly Immortal. This was the city's Law Enforcement Team.

These members of the Law Enforcement Team were basically former regional supervisors who had gradually worked their way up.

"Brother Li, this kid killed our people!"

"According to the Immortal Sect rules, a life must be paid for with a life. Hurry up and arrest him!"

Many people instigated, truly not expecting Li Haotian to be so bold. Now that he had violated the rules, even a god couldn't save him.

The Law Enforcement Team believed in seeing is believing. The pile of corpses was enough to prove that the other party had indeed killed someone just now, so they immediately prepared to take action to capture him and send him back for trial.

Golden chains flew out from their bodies and circled in the air, looking like a giant spider.

This was a heaven-rank golden magic treasure that every member of the Law Enforcement Team possessed, issued to them by their superiors for enforcing the law.

Once such a Magic Treasure wrapped around someone, it would absorb their spiritual energy. The more spiritual energy it absorbed, the tighter it would wrap.

In this way, they could easily and tightly bind those criminals who were powerful but refused to obey the law.

"Wait."

Li Haotian smiled and reached out his hand to stop these people from continuing their attack on him, then gently picked his ear with his right hand.

"Since you are the Law Enforcement Team, you should understand the laws of this city better than anyone, right?"

The members of the Law Enforcement Team frowned, but they still nodded in response to his question.

They had already investigated the background of this supervisor in front of them. The other party had just completed his Ascension not long ago. Although they didn't know by what strange Opportunity he had reached the Earth Immortal Realm, breaking the law was breaking the law.

If the other party had any powerful background, they would absolutely not dare to directly confront him like this, but their investigation results showed that he had absolutely no background at all.

This proved that as long as they could take him down, it would be a great achievement. He was a ruthless person who had violated the law and killed someone in the street.

When the time came, they would receive generous rewards; promotion and wealth were certain. That was why everyone was so full of fighting spirit, ready to strike as soon as they met.

"I remember the law very clearly. Article 793 states that if a large number of Powerhouses simultaneously besiege one person, that Cultivator may counter-kill."

"This counts as self-defense, not premeditated murder, so you cannot arrest me. Instead, you should be arresting them. They have clearly violated the law by gathering a mob to cause trouble."

"Given the extent of their actions, they are knowingly breaking the law. At the very least, they should be confined for three to five years!"

Li Haotian had been bored these past few days and had been reading the laws of Anbei Royal City. He found many of the legal provisions quite interesting, so he had memorized them. He didn't expect that they would actually come in handy today.

The Law Enforcement Team had also thoroughly read the legal provisions and committed them all to memory. What Li Haotian said was completely correct.

"What are you still waiting for? Hurry up and take action now. Arresting such a large criminal group and taking them all back will definitely be a great achievement for you!"

As Li Haotian spoke, he pointed at the supervisors who had gathered to cause trouble, and everyone's Faces turned green.

In the past, there were others who wanted to be like Li Haotian, not accepting bribes or tribute, but after being beaten up by them, they immediately became obedient and willing to take these benefits.

Those previous people had never beaten them, but the Li Haotian before them had beaten them severely and even killed quite a few.

As a result, the Law Enforcement Team had arrived, preparing to take him away, but this kid directly cited the law, forcing the Law Enforcement Team into a difficult position, and even pointed the finger at them.

Before this, they had gathered mobs to cause trouble and beaten up those upright officials, but those people were all concerned about Face and none of them contacted the Law Enforcement Team to enforce the law and arrest these people, which fostered their extremely arrogant habits.

Once anyone dared to be independent or refused to listen to their orders, they would swarm up and beat the person up.

As long as the other party cared about their reputation and wanted some Face, they would not seek out the Law Enforcement Team.

Therefore, this method, which had always worked, not only failed today but would also cost them dearly.

The Law Enforcement Team finally turned their gaze upon them. These were a group of Heavenly Immortal level Powerhouses, while they themselves were just a group of Earth Immortals, and with several people already dead, their combat power was somewhat affected.

Everyone was just like that taken away by the Law Enforcement Team.

Li Haotian curled his lips in disdain, a calm smile on his Face, and then turned around and walked directly back into his Immortal Cave to continue to Cultivate.

In his eyes, this bunch of guys were just a group of small fry. He had even beaten King Anbei herself; what were these guys worth?

Speaking of which, he didn't know if his Great Memory Erasure Technique was actually effective. If King Anbei remembered what happened before, would she come to trouble him?

Li Haotian's worry was obviously very valid, because at this moment, King Anbei always felt that something had happened that day, but no matter how she investigated, no one knew anything.
