Chapter 278 - first confrontation (3)

n
n
nShen Yiming’s eyes lit up.”I’ve been waiting for an entire day. Finally, I’ve received the news.”
n
nHe quickly stood up from his chair.
n
nHer eyes fell on Xiao ran.”Let’s go.”
n
n“What about the Taoist priest and I?” Xiao Zhou asked.
n
n“You guys stay here. We have other arrangements.” After that, Shen Yiming and Xiao ran left.
n
n“I didn’t see any other arrangements.” Xiao Zhou was puzzled.
n
nDaoist priest Xuan Yang explained,”no arrangements are the best arrangements. Our Foundation is shallow, so he’s protecting us in disguise. If we get involved, it won’t do us any good. ”
n
n“What about brother Xiao?”
n
n“He has the eldest Princess” protection and can even drink such a precious spirit tea as the snow ginseng tea, do you have this ability? If he does, this poor Daoist will go find him now and plead for you to go over. ” Daoist priest Xuan Yang rolled his eyes at him.
n
nXiao Zhou mumbled,”have you developed feelings for him after being imprisoned here?”
n
nBang! Bang!
n
n“Be careful with your words!” Taoist master Xuan Yang knocked on his head.
n
nIn the hall.
n
nQin Fangzhen put his hands behind his back and looked at the calligraphy on the wall. The two words “loyalty” were written on it.
n
nTwo sets of footsteps could be heard from behind.
n
n“You guys are here.”
n
nShe turned around and looked at Xiao ran and Xiao Yan.
n
n“I’m sure you all know that this is a rare opportunity to investigate the ninth Prince. Master Fu has gone all out, and even the four Academies and the three Ducal Ministers have appeared. Tell me, if I hand this case over to you, can you solve it within three days? Find the mastermind behind the scenes?”
n
nShen Yiming and Xiao ran looked at each other. Xiao ran nodded at him. Shen Yiming said, “Don’t worry, Your Excellency. We’ll do our best to find the real mastermind and bring justice to all the scholars in the world.”
n
nQin Fangzhen said,”if you don’t have enough people, just transfer them from the divine sword guards!” No matter who is involved, take them down as soon as you find them. ”
n
n“Understood.” Shen Yiming replied.
n
n“Go!” Qin Fangzhen waved his hand.
n
nAfter they left.
n
nLei Yuantai walked out from the side and sighed,”you think so highly of them?”
n
nQin Fangzhen shook his head,”they were the ones who discovered this matter. If we let others interfere now, they will not be convinced. It is too obvious that we are trying to take advantage of them. It is not good for the divine sword guards ‘reputation.”
n
nAt this point.
n
nThere was an unprecedented seriousness in his eyes.”They are my people. No matter what, even if they fail, I will let them try! If anything goes wrong, I’ll take the blame!”
n
nLei Yuantai patted his shoulder twice and turned to leave.
n
nHe left the courtyard.
n
nShen Yiming said,”we have no way out. Everyone is watching. We can only succeed. We can’t fail!”
n
nXiao ran gave him a reassuring look.”Don’t put too much pressure on yourself. Do your best and live up to your own heart.”
n
n“Yes.” Shen Yiming nodded.
n
nHe gathered his men and brought two hundred people.
n
nAll of them were at the connate realm and above. There were also many grandmasters and more than twenty grandmasters. There were even two purple sword guards at the mystical Grandmaster realm.
n
nThey left the divine sword guards.
n
nA group of people rushed towards the Azure Dragon market.
n
nAlong the way, the surrounding commoners made way for them, not daring to stop them.
n
nThe scholars clenched their fists as they watched them leave. Some of them even cried out in excitement.
n
nThe news that the divine sword guards had moved out spread like a gust of wind in the capital.
n
nAll the forces were watching and waiting for the results of their investigation.
n
nThey arrived at number 88 of the Azure Dragon market.
n
nThe guards outside the ninth Prince’s residence stopped them.
n
n“Stop!” The leader of the guards took a step forward.
n
n“What are you trying to do by mobilizing such a large force and bringing weapons with you?”
n
n“Get lost!” Shen Yiming berated.
n
nThe commander of the guards was furious. Shen Yiming’s eyes turned cold. He grabbed the commander’s head and violently slammed it against the wall, causing him to faint.
n
nHe looked coldly at the guards around him who were about to rush up and shouted,”I’ve been ordered to investigate the case of ‘leak of the exam questions’. If you don’t want to die, get lost!”
n
nIt was simple and brutal, without any nonsense.
n
nThe surrounding guards were stunned and did not dare to step forward.
n
n“Let’s go!” Shen Yiming greeted.
n
nA group of people rushed into the manor.
n
n“Surround this place,” Shen Yiming ordered.”Don’t let anyone leave without my order.”
n
nThe two purple sword guards at the mystical Grandmaster realm immediately took action.
n
nXiao ran and Shen Yiming led the rest of the people and rushed towards the palace at the back.
n
nThe people in the mansion seemed to have received the news and did not stop him. On the contrary, they were very cooperative.
n
nWhen Xiao ran and the other person arrived at the main hall of the rear hall.
n
nThe ninth Prince sat calmly on the main seat and sipped his tea. When he saw them enter, he put down his tea cup and smiled.”What are you doing, bringing so many people into my residence?”
n
n“You’re coming with us? Or do you want us to help you?” Shen Yiming said with a cold face.
n
n“Have you considered the consequences of your actions? If I didn’t do this, can I bear the responsibility?”
n
n“Now all the suspicions are pointed at you. Before you are cleared of suspicion, you are a suspect, and as long as you are a suspect, we have the right to arrest you! If you want to take revenge after this, just bring it on, we’ll take it all on. ” Shen Yiming retorted firmly, word by word.
n
n“Your name is Shen Yiming, and his name is Xiao ran. I’ll remember this.” The ninth Prince stood up from his chair.
n
nXiao ran took a step forward and grabbed his shoulder. He took out a chain and quickly tied him up.
n
n“You dare!” The ninth Prince was really angry this time.
n
n“You can resist! We definitely won’t stop you, but you have to think carefully before you resist. If you do so, you’ll be resisting arrest. ” Xiao ran said.
n
