As soon as he entered the Chaoyuan Hall, Fang Jian saw a man with a majestic figure wearing a Xuanzhang Taoist robe sitting high in the hall. His aura was so vast and majestic that one would feel insignificant at the sight of him.

Only a powerful person at the first level of the Pure Realm could have such a powerful aura. Those powerful people above the first level of the Pure Realm in the conference room did not release their power in this way, but instead released their power of the first level of the Pure Realm here.

There was no doubt that the person sitting high in the hall was none other than the Taoist Grand Emperor, and on the lower left side of the Taoist Grand Emperor stood another person. This person was a Hunyuan Wuda Daluo Jinxian, but Fang Jian had never seen him before, and he was not from the Ministry of Justice.

"Night Patrol Captain Fang Jian pays his respects to the Grand Emperor Dao Zun." Fang Jian walked to the center of the hall and bowed.

The Grand Emperor Daozun said with a smile, "Captain Fang, please stand up."

"Thank you, Taoist Taihuang." Fang Jian stood up straight after expressing his gratitude.

Immediately, the Grand Emperor Daozun turned to Fang Jian and asked, "Captain Fang, what brings you to my Court Law Office? What's the matter?"

Fang Jian said, "Replying to the Grand Emperor Daozun, a friend from the Jingshan Dao Kingdom came to me and said that the Jingshan Dao Kingdom's junior ministers and ministers were arrested and imprisoned by the Court of Justice, so I came to inquire about the reason."

The Grand Emperor Dao Zun smiled and said, "Captain Fang, as far as I know, your Night Patrol Office is only responsible for night patrols and law enforcement in Yujing City. Criminal law matters are the purview of our Imperial Court, and matters concerning the nobles of various countries are also the purview of the Honglutai. It seems to have nothing to do with your Night Patrol Office, right?"

Fang Jian bowed and said, "The Daoist Grand Emperor is absolutely right. Whether it's criminal law or the affairs of the nobles of various countries, they are not within the jurisdiction of my Night Patrol Office. However, I have another identity. That is, the hostage sent by the Daoist Kingdom of Xuanjian to Yujing. Therefore, I support the Daoist Kingdom of Jingshan in this matter. I was about to join my fellow Daoists of the Daoist Kingdom in a street demonstration. After hearing about this, I came here to ask. If the junior ministers and nobles of the Daoist Kingdom of Jingshan are being detained without any crime, I will go to the Court of Justice with everyone in the Daoist Kingdom of Jingshan to seek an explanation after returning."

In an instant, the smile on Taihuang Daozun's face froze. He suddenly realized that he had ignored Fang Jian's identity as a hostage and only valued his duties as a captain of the Night Patrol Captain's Mansion.

But after a brief smile froze, the Grand Emperor Daoist Master smiled again and said, "Captain Fang, why are you being so harsh? If you're asking as a hostage from the Xuanjian Dao Kingdom, then this is perfectly reasonable. The Imperial Court arrested the Junior Officials and Imperial Officials of the Jingshan Dao Kingdom simply because they were fighting with people from the Ganzhao Dao Kingdom at the Honglutai Palace, disrupting the palace and the order in Yujing City. Therefore, the Imperial Court detained them according to the law."

Fang Jian asked, "May I ask, Grand Emperor Daozun, how long does the Court of Justice intend to detain them?"

The Grand Emperor Dao Zun smiled and asked, "I'd like to ask Captain Fang, when do you plan to transfer Yao Shu of the Ganzhao Dao Kingdom to the Ministry of Justice?"

Hearing this, Fang Jian was stunned at first, then he smiled with relief.

Seeing Fang Jian laugh, Taihuang Daozun also smiled and pointed to the side, saying, "Captain Fang, this is the special envoy of Ganzhao Dao Kingdom to Yujing, Fengli Shangqing."

Fengli Shangqing immediately bowed to Fang Jian and said with a smile, "Captain Fang, I have long heard of your great name."

Fang Jian chuckled and returned the greeting, saying, "Greetings, Lord Fengli."

Fang Jian then said, "Yao Shu's crimes are far more serious than those of the other junior ministers and ministers of the Jingshan Dao Kingdom. Furthermore, I'm not very familiar with the people of the Jingshan Dao Kingdom. I'm just asking. If you want to use them to exchange for Yao Shu, that... is probably a bit too much."

Hearing this, the Grand Emperor Daoist Master glanced at Feng Li, who immediately stepped forward and said, "Of course, I know about this as well. Master Yao Shu's crimes are indeed serious, so I, Gan Zhao Dao State, have also prepared a ransom."

As he spoke, Fengli Shangqing pulled out a small 'Jingyu Box' from his sleeve and handed it forward, saying, "This is 500,000 dust funds, used to redeem Master Yao Shu from the Night Patrol Mansion."

Fang Jian looked at the Jingyu Box in the hands of Fengli Shangqing and couldn't help but laugh, "A Shangqing's son is worth 1.3 million dust. How come a Daoist master's son is only worth 500,000 dust?"

Fengli Shangqing laughed and said, "Although Yao Shu is a prince of the Ganzhao Dao Kingdom, he ranks low in the family. He is neither a crown prince nor a wielder of state power. At best, he is just a playboy. There is also much dissatisfaction with him in the country. Therefore, offering 500,000 dust to redeem him is already the greatest favor my king has done him."

Fang Jian asked, "Lord Fengli, do you need me to pass these words on to Master Yao Shu?"

Feng Li's face changed drastically upon hearing this, and he quickly said, "No need, no need. This... Captain Fang, if you feel that these 500,000 dust forces are insufficient, I can still make up for it personally. However, Captain Fang, please do not mention our conversation today to anyone."

"That's easy...it just depends on how much you, Lord Fengli, want to make up for it." Fang Jian said with a smile.

Fengli Shangqing pondered for a moment, then said with an embarrassed look: "I will make up 100,000..."

"Not sincere." Fang Jian said with a smile.

Fengli Shangqing was stunned for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Then... give me 300,000!"

Fang Jian said calmly, "How about rounding it up to an integer, one million, one million dust forces, plus the release of the people of the Pure Good Dao Nation, then you can come with me to the Night Patrol Mansion to take Yao Shu away."

"One million dust!" Fengli Shangqing exclaimed. He originally had 1.5 million dust, but he had already presented 500,000 to Taihuang Daozun.

At this moment, Taihuang Daozun was just sitting there drinking tea leisurely, as if the conversation below had nothing to do with him at all. He had already done the matter of the 500,000 dust situation, so the rest of the things had nothing to do with him.

"Don't agree? Then forget it." Fang Jian said calmly, and then said to the Grand Emperor Dao Zun at the top: "Grand Emperor Dao Zun, I take my leave."
