Capital City

The rooh Scholar Yue, was decorated plainly There were books all around, which gave off a strong atmosphere of a literary student There was a teapot on one side of the roo on a stove

He had poured away the past two batches of tea that he had brewed and this was the third batch Just as it was almost ready, there was a knock of the door A panic-strickenbad has happened”

Yue Qiu Shan was irritated and scolded out loud, ”What bad thing has happened? Explain it to me in details, do not panic I've told you before, no matter how important the issue is, youand consu me”

”Master, Zhang Jie Yu took so a pigeon delivered a letter saying young ht and did not return We're worried that soht have happened to him”

In just a few sentences, he ed to summarize accurately what happened Yue Qiu Shan was unperturbed Zhang Jie Yu was his own disciple and son-in-law Since he was still young, Yue Qiu Shan had not io Instead, he had taught hih Yue Qiu Shan wouldn't livethe end of his lifespan, teaching and passing down Daoist teachings were a huge responsibility and couldn't be done in haste

He had ed to plant several spies within Slow River County Should there be anything important, they would send word to hi rong

Yue Qiu Shan arranged his teacups neatly before pouring three full cups of tea The entire room was filled with the aroma of tea

He then asked out of the blue, ”Do you knohy he went there?”

Seeing the servant not daring to reply, Yue Qiu Shan felt that so was amiss and shouted loudly, ”Hurry, tell me What has happened?”

The servant then fell to his knees and said, ”Master, it was not, shortly after he took so to kill Pei Zi Yun”

Yue Qiu Shan stood up in anger, ”Zhang Jie Yu has always been level-headed and rational Would've expected him to be so foolish today damn it”

At precisely thiswithin the folds of his robes He dis within to take out an enchanted talis Jie Yu His heart was beating rapidly in his chest as he had a bad feeling about this

When he took out the enchanted talisman, the shadow of a person appeared It was rather blurry, and seemed to be very distorted This ers to touch the talisht shot into it Only then did it stabilize

The ie on the enchanted talisround within the Crystal Gaze was of a room Based on what he could see, it looked like the interior of an inn After soe vanished a voice spoke fro had happened This ers froe an official report It was said that the report had so And that fellow brother Zhang had devised a scheme to frame several Elementary Scholars, and that he was a monster He has been killed I am some distance away and thus have no more information on this matter”

When this Daoist finished, he touched the Crystal Gaze and a blur of iistrate's Office in Slow River County There were plenty of people gathered outside the office, and they were all wearing white headscarves and wearing mourner's clothes There were many coffins behind them as well

Yue Qiu Shan had belonged to the previous dynasty and was rather old Seeing this scene before him made his chest constrict, as he found it hard to breathe The disciple that he had entrusted to handle theAn Prefecture had died just like that He flew into a rage and swept off his favourite teapots froround Hot tea spilt all over the place as well

It could be seen within the enchanted a outside the Daoist eon from outside and took the scroll of paper fro the contents of the paper, he shouted, ”Senior uncle, this is bad, this is really bad Zhang Jie Yu took a group of people to attack Snail Village and killed 23 villagers A those that he killed was the Chief Patrol Officer”

”They have the body of the dead official to prove it Also, thethe Elementary Scholar had been exposed The faed an official report with the Magistrate This is bad!”

The eon had been sent by one of their spies within the county These spies didn't have ht be interesting After which they just had to dispatch a pigeon over, and they would be rewarded with silver

When Yue Qiu Shan heard this, an ashen look was displayed on his face Was this Zhang Jie Yu crazy?

He had thought of Zhang Jie Yu as a reliable and dependable person Who would've thought that he would mess up this badly and even kill the Chief Patrol Officer The Patrol Officer was an Honorable Official and the consequences were dire Even the whole sect ht be implicated because of this

”I'her authorities in the sect I want you to remain hidden, don't pry” Yue Qiu Shan took several deep breaths in a bid to compose himself before some color returned to his face

”Yes Senior Uncle” This Daoistthe communication enchanted a the events to his senior uncle did he e to relax

Yue Qiu Shan was pacing up and down in his roo considering that Zhang Jie Yu had always been earnest and good natured Who would've expected him to break all the unspoken rules and even kill the Patrol Officer In doing so, he created so hout the entire county This was a big problem

This matter was too severe, and had to be reported to the Sect Leader He was just about to use the enchanted ae on it A Daoist Master had appeared on the screen of the amulet

This Daoist Master was Zhang Jie Yu's biological uncle He spoke coldly to Yue Qiu Shan, ”I've just received word fro Jie Yu's body has been destroyed And I just wished to ask Fellow brother, what on earth happened?”
