When Yuan Ning and the other two left, they took Chen Zhen with them. Therefore, the only ones left were Su Rui, Chi Jiao, and the little fox demon in Su Rui's arms.
Yuan Ning and the others' departure made Chi Jiao, who had been sullen and silent, suddenly breathe a sigh of relief. She said to Su Rui with a serious look in her eyes, "This fellow named Yuan Ning may not look very advanced, but he exudes a dangerous aura. I can sense that if I fight him, there's a high chance I'll be killed!"
Su Rui was a little stunned. Perhaps it was because of his lack of cultivation or some other reason, he did not feel any threat or pressure from Yuan Ning, so he felt that Chi Jiao's words were a bit exaggerated.
"Don't worry, Senior Brother Yuan and I are both true disciples of the Qingcheng Sect. We will not become life-and-death rivals!" Su Rui comforted Chi Jiao.
…
On the other side, after Yuan Ning and the other two took Chen Zhen away from Su Rui, they parted ways.
Zhang Beiyang left in the direction of Lingguan Hall, while Yuan Ning and Yu Shuangshuang took Chen Zhen to the right wing of the Patriarch Hall. The small hall here is generally called "Yinfang" by Taoists, and the Qingcheng Sect's Law Enforcement Hall is located inside.
At this time, in the Law Enforcement Hall, a tall, well-proportioned young woman dressed like a Taoist nun was half lying on a cloud bed, holding a wine gourd and pouring wine into her mouth in big gulps.
When Yuan Ning entered the Law Enforcement Hall and saw this, he immediately frowned, wanting to say something but stopping himself. Finally, he sighed and said in a loud voice, "Yuan Ning greets the Law Enforcement Elder!"
Hearing this, the young woman wiped the corner of her mouth, which was wet with wine, with her sleeve and said in a lazy tone, "Yuan Ning, you're here. What do you want to talk to me about?"
"Uncle Zhou, our new true disciple, Junior Brother Su Qinghe, has captured Chen Zhen, a robber disciple of the Bamboo Mountain Sect. Now Chen Zhen has been handed over to our Law Enforcement Hall. Elder, please decide how to deal with him?" Yuan Ning said.
The young woman took a deep gulp of wine, burped, and casually replied, "Who accepted this new true disciple?"
"Junior Brother Su is the new disciple of Senior Uncle Yu'e!" Yuan Ning said truthfully.
"That idiot comes back no more than twice a year, yet he dares to imitate others and take in apprentices. He's not ashamed!" The young woman cursed.
Then he added, "Bring that new disciple into our Law Enforcement Hall. I'm going to undermine that idiot Yu'er. Let's see if he still has the nerve to call me a drunkard when he comes back next time!"
"Uncle Zhou, this is not good!" Yuan Ning frowned when he heard this.
"What's wrong with that? It's settled! Ask him to come and serve tomorrow, so that this elder can take a good look at what kind of person this new disciple is!" the young woman said in a firm tone.
Yuan Ning had no choice but to change the subject and asked, "Uncle Master, what about Chen Zhen..."
The young woman said nonchalantly, "Send it to the mines!"
"Yes, sir!" Yuan Ning responded with a salute without objection.
Chen Zhen behind him was not happy and immediately jumped out: "Elder Zhou, my brother is Chen Ting, the head disciple of the Zhushan Sect. My brother will definitely come to redeem me. Please don't drag me into mining!"
"Quack!" the woman shouted angrily, her phoenix eyes glared, and a majesty like a landslide and tsunami pressed down on Chen Zhen, shocking him immediately!
Yuan Ning looked at Yu Shuangshuang beside him and gave her a wink. Yu Shuangshuang immediately pulled the trembling Chen Zhen out of the law enforcement hall.
"Uncle Zhou, if you have no other instructions, I will take my leave now!" Yuan Ning said with a bow.
"Let's go, don't disturb me drinking!" The young woman waved her sleeves, picked up the wine gourd and started drinking again.
…
Su Rui, holding the little fox demon, took Chi Jiao and started from the small hall on the left wing. He walked through the Transmission Hall, Merit Hall, Internal Affairs Hall, Foreign Affairs Hall and other halls one by one. When he arrived at the door of the Law Enforcement Hall, he happened to meet Yuan Ning who was leaving the hall.
Upon seeing him, Yuan Ning sighed and said, "Junior Brother Su, you shouldn't go into the Law Enforcement Hall today. Uncle Zhou has ordered you to come directly to perform your duties tomorrow!"
Su Rui was stunned when he heard this, and his first reaction was: I didn’t do anything, why did Master Zhou fall for me?
Su Rui fully demonstrated the spirit of asking questions when he didn't understand something, and asked Yuan Ning with a puzzled look: "Brother Yuan, isn't Uncle Zhou's move... too hasty?"
Yuan Ning shook his head and said, "Uncle Zhou is very impatient, so his orders were usually carried out immediately. Junior Brother Su, you are not being rushed this time!"
"Brother Yuan, Uncle Zhou suddenly assigned me to the Law Enforcement Hall. Is there any hidden story behind this?" Su Rui asked in a low voice.
"Well...Uncle Zhou just cares about you more!" Yuan Ning said with a vague look.
Although Su Rui was not an experienced person, his heart skipped a beat when he saw his expression and tone. He thought, oh no, it is very likely that he was being targeted by the big boss!
Seeing Su Rui's face suddenly turn pale, Yuan Ning immediately comforted him, "Don't worry, Junior Brother. Although Uncle Zhou is impatient, he is not unreasonable!"
After saying that, he patted his arm and turned away.
"You humans have such complicated thoughts!" Chi Jiao, who had been listening nearby, suddenly said this.
"Yes, people's hearts are sometimes complicated! However, many things or people can often be solved!"
Su Rui responded with a sigh, then walked towards the next hall.
"Sword Tomb?"
Su Rui looked at the closed door and the plaque hanging outside the door, a little stunned.
"True disciples can enter the sword tomb once unconditionally. The rest of the disciples, please show the master's order!" A man wearing a black cloak and his whole body hidden in black clothes suddenly appeared in front of the door, blocking Su Rui's way, and said in a low voice.
