Chapter 465: Chapter 465: Soul Out of Body!

Zhou Yu sneered,

"Fine, since that’s the case, hand over Qiu Baiwan."

Yang Tianpeng furrowed his brow.

Hand over Qiu Baiwan?

Wouldn’t that be tantamount to admitting his collusion with the local forces of Qin state?

"Qiu Baiwan is critically injured and is currently receiving treatment."

"Once he has recovered, I will need to understand the details of the incident. At that time, our Punishment Hall will naturally make a fair judgment."

"You needn’t trouble yourself over this matter."

"Fine,"

Zhou Yu sneered.

"In that case, I shall wait for the ’fair judgment’ of the venerable envoy from the Punishment Hall."

With that, Zhou Yu turned around to leave.

However, just as he turned, he took a deep look at Yan Maozong and Yang Shiwu, signaling them with a glance.

The two immediately understood.

"Wait a moment,"

Yan Maozong spoke up.

He looked at Yang Tianpeng.

"The governor mentioned that since this matter involves the deputy minister of the Martial Cabinet, to ensure fairness, our state office must also send someone to participate in the treatment and the subsequent interrogation..."

As Yan Maozong spoke, a powerful aura emanated from him.

Yang Tianpeng’s face darkened, naturally unwilling to yield, he released an aura of his own:

"This is an internal affair of the Martial Cabinet; it’s not something the state office should intervene in..."

While Yang Tianpeng and the others were completely distracted by Yan Maozong,

Behind them, Zhou Yu’s shadowy Primordial Spirit silently left his body and headed straight for the medical room of the Martial Cabinet.

In an instant, his shadowy Primordial Spirit located Qiu Baiwan, who was being treated.

Zhou Yu sneered, activated his shadowy Primordial Spirit, and fiercely struck at Qiu Baiwan’s sea of consciousness.

The treated Qiu Baiwan suddenly jerked, his eyes opened wide, his pupils dilated—looking as though he had seen a ghost, startling the medical staff.

However, moments later, the light in Qiu Baiwan’s eyes faded and he closed them again.

Nobody realized that Qiu Baiwan’s sea of consciousness had been destroyed, and even if he survived, he would become a complete idiot.

Zhou Yu withdrew his shadowy Primordial Spirit, his lips curling up slightly.

Meanwhile, Yan Maozong and the others were still quarreling.

Zhou Yu spoke.

"Elder Yan, Elder Yang, let’s go."

Upon hearing this, Yan Maozong knew that Zhou Yu had completed his task, a sly smile flashing in his eyes.

"Fine, after this matter is concluded, you personally go report to Governor Qi."

Having said that, he led Zhou Yu and the three others briskly away.

After the three had left,

Yang Tianpeng’s face was grim; he remained silent, feeling that Yan Maozong’s sudden surge of aura was somewhat strange, but couldn’t quite pinpoint what was odd.

Meanwhile, Zhao Songqing spoke angrily,

"Damn it, I can’t stand it anymore."

"This little bastard is too arrogant."

"To think we just let him walk away like that."

Quan Yulong also spoke furiously,

"Jiang Fengnian even gave that young scoundrel the oversight order, allowing him to act so arrogantly in the Martial Cabinet."

"Jiang Fengnian should die, so should that boy."

"Shut the fuck up,"

Yang Tianpeng couldn’t listen any longer.

When Yan Maozong and the others were there, Quan Yulong and Zhao Songqing didn’t make a sound; now that they had left, they wouldn’t stop babbling.

Such idiots.

Especially Zhao Songqing, backed by the Capital City’s Zhao Family, it was also he who had organized the Liu, Dong, and Gao families to unite against Zhou Yu.

Yet it turned out like this.

What a total failure.

No wonder he couldn’t make a name for himself among the younger generation of the Zhao Family in Capital City.

...

On the way back, Yang Shiwu laughed heartily.

"What a relief."

"Honestly, I never thought I would see the day when I could put such pressure on an envoy from the Punishment Hall right in the Martial Cabinet."

"I guess, the envoys from the Punishment Hall are not so fearsome after all."

Yang Shiwu was the Hall Master of Shenwu Hall, a typical organization of martial artists.

For such organizations, there’s nothing more daunting than the Martial Cabinet and the Punishment Hall.

In the past, when encountering deputy ministers from the Martial Cabinet, they truly had to act subservient, let alone someone from the Punishment Hall.

Yet today, he could stand on the Martial Cabinet’s territory and question a person from the Punishment Hall; it was something he couldn’t have even dreamed of.

Noticing this, Zhou Yu asked with a smile,

"Elder Yang, it seems you really are fed up with the people from the Martial Cabinet."

Yang Shiwu laughed and said,

"You might not know, but over the years, my Shenwu Hall has been extorted many times by them; the fines alone have added up to billions."

"Those people are like blood-sucking parasites, always finding fault even when you haven’t broken any rules,"

As he spoke, Yang Shiwu suddenly became serious.
