Chapter 402: The Best Offense is a Good Defense!
“What’s going on!? Is this not the Li Family? Why have you brought me here!”
Mo Youqing’s face changed dramatically, unable to stop struggling.
He could accept being judged, but he could not accept being seen in such a miserable state by an ant.
Just a moment ago, he had been flaunting his strength in front of Zhou Tong, belittling him as a weakling.
Now he was about to become a prisoner in front of the other party, which would be a devastating blow to his dignity.
“This is against the rules; you’re clearly setting up a private court, which is strictly prohibited by the enforcers. Are you trying to break the law while knowing it!”
As soon as these words were spoken, they instantly attracted two disdainful gazes.
“A mere killing demon dares to say such things; this world is truly ridiculous!”
“What of it? As enforcers, you should lead by example and absolutely respect the rules!”
With a loud slap!
Before he could finish speaking, Mo Youqing was dealt a heavy slap that split his lip, and a few of his teeth flew out!
“I’m not afraid to tell you that usually, a private court cannot be established, but this case is special because the Chief Enforcer is here to judge you!”
Upon hearing this, Mo Youqing felt a buzzing in his head, doubting for a moment if he had misheard.
What kind of person was he to have attracted the attention of such a big shot!
To someone who wields the Authority of Law like the Chief Enforcer, they were like a moving Enforcement City; a private court was merely a normal operation.
“Damn it, that damned kid set me up!”
The figure of Zhou Tong floated in Mo Youqing’s mind, making him grittily clench his teeth in hatred.
In the previous instance, the other party had guided him step by step, aiming for him to fall into the enforcer’s trap; it seemed that kid’s strategy had succeeded.
Now he could be sure that a Chief Enforcer was indeed on site at the Li Family!
“Wait a minute, I admit my guilt. Can I request the Chief Enforcer to interrogate me independently? I have important information to present to him!”
Upon hearing this, the two enforcers stopped.
“Are you serious?”
“Of course I’m serious! I have long admired the Chief Enforcer and have been wanting to have a private conversation with him.”
Mo Youqing revealed a sincere expression, acting as if it were real.
He had calculated in his mind that as long as he could get the Chief Enforcer to interrogate him alone, he could avoid Zhou Tong, escaping humiliation.
Moreover, if they met privately, he would have more room to maneuver, making it easier to exonerate himself.
“I can help you make the request!”
With that, one of the enforcers turned around, took out a Jade Amulet, and began to inquire with the person on the other end.
The other enforcer lifted his head to the sky, one side of his face bulging, as if he was holding back laughter.
Mo Youqing shook his head vigorously; how could this be funny? He couldn’t understand what was amusing.
A moment later, he received the result that delighted him.
“The Chief Enforcer has agreed; he is especially lenient and will personally interrogate you!”
“That’s wonderful!”
Mo Youqing cheered in excitement, now he could avoid Zhou Tong and escape humiliation.
…
A moment later, Mo Youqing was taken to a dungeon. His cultivation was sealed, making him no different from an ordinary person, but his senses remained extraordinarily sharp, quickly detecting someone approaching.
“Mo Youqing, your time has come!”
At that moment, a shadow dressed in black robes, concealing his features, walked in and sat down opposite him.
“I greet the Chief Enforcer!”
Despite being bound and suspended, Mo Youqing still insisted on saluting, his face bearing a look of reverence.
One had to admit, this esteemed individual was indeed deeply concealed.
Not only was his cultivation retracted, making it impossible to gauge his depth, but even the spiritual energy he inadvertently emitted made Mo Youqing tremble.
One could imagine that, even if this person was not at Sage Peak, he was probably not far off.
This was undoubtedly the Chief Enforcer!
“My lord, I’m being wronged! I am a law-abiding good person, a truly good person; you must not be deceived by the small folk!”
The other party opened his mouth to start crying out.
“Stop pretending there!”
Zhou Tong’s voice boomed like thunder, mixed with spiritual fluctuations, hitting Mo Youqing’s brow heavily.
“Ah, ah, ah…”
Mo Youqing felt a sharp pain and hurriedly shut his mouth.
“How dare you claim you’re innocent; that’s the biggest joke! In your conversation with the Young Master of the Li Family, you personally admitted to harming the Li Family; can there be any falsehood!”
“That was just to scare him; I was merely bragging!”
“Impudent! Still daring to deny it? Chu Yin has already exposed you; you’re being stubborn, and it looks like you’re courting disaster!”
In an instant, a chilling killing intent filled the entire dungeon, leaving Mo Youqing pale; he knew if he tried to argue further, he would die here.
“My lord, please wait, I admit my punishment. On the basis of the Profound Sky Hall, please give me a way out!”
Mo Youqing took a deep breath, pulling out his backing, hoping to salvage a bit of life.
He knew that at this moment, it wouldn’t make much difference whether he admitted guilt or not; with solid evidence against him, the Chief Enforcer could kill him with just a word.
“Profound Sky Hall? You’re quite bold to threaten me with that; don’t you know we are about to take care of the Profound Sky Hall?”
“You even joined in; are you trying to oppose the entire enforcer organization?”
Upon hearing this, Mo Youqing felt as if struck by lightning, disbelief flashing in his eyes.
He understood; in an instant, everything clicked!
The reason the Chief Enforcer personally targeted him was not for any other matter but because he had joined the Profound Sky Hall!
It was ridiculous that he had thought of the Profound Sky Hall as a backing; truly seeking death!
Sure enough, the Hei Yi Ren seemed to see through his thoughts and immediately followed up, “Originally, we had forgotten about you, but you had to announce your joining there so loudly. This matter even alerted the Law Master; I have to deal with you!”
With a loud slap!
Mo Youqing’s face suddenly added a handprint; this slap was extremely heavy, causing blood to drip from his seven orifices.
The one who struck was none other than himself!
At this moment, his face was filled with regret, and deep resentment towards the Profound Sky Hall surged within him.
“My lord, I repent; I am willing to atone for my sins. Don’t you want to gather evidence against the Profound Sky Hall? I have a lot of information; I can reveal everything!”
“A teachable child; speak!”
Under the black veil, Zhou Tong’s lips curled up as he spoke with great authority.
“You dare!”
At that moment, a shadow suddenly appeared above Mo Youqing’s head.
“Netherworld Master!”
Seeing this figure, Mo Youqing couldn’t help but tremble violently.
“Dare to betray the Profound Sky Hall; you will surely die!”
With the words just spoken, he raised a hand and struck down at Mo Youqing!
