In this situation, those who came to them were like the Prince of Jin, who were seeking revenge, so the intentions of this group were quite suspicious.
Jiang Luofu secretly admired him. No wonder that boy had grown to such a level in such a short time; his meticulous mind was indispensable.
"N-nothing, just a routine patrol, and I happened to come by to check things out," the official stammered.
"Tell the truth!" Zuan released the power domain of the Tai'a Sword in a small area, and the remaining people were so frightened that they wet themselves and their minds collapsed in an instant.
"I'll talk, I'll talk. We're here to interrogate members of the Murong family."
"Torture them thoroughly, cripple a few key figures, and cripple their cultivation along the way."
...
Upon hearing their words, the members of the Murong family were immediately shocked and their expressions changed drastically. They never expected the other party to be so ruthless, and they all cursed them angrily.
"Who ordered you to do this?" Zuan's face darkened.
The officials shuddered: "We don't know either. We were following Lord Ye's orders. It seems we offended someone and need to make an example of them. The Murong family is like that, and so is the Qin family from earlier."
"What!" Upon hearing this, Qin Wanru almost fainted.
Zu An's heart sank as well. Judging from his words, they had just come from the Qin family.
"What did you do to the Qin family?"
The man swallowed hard, sensing extreme fear under the other's gaze, and cautiously replied, "I didn't do anything, just broke a few people's legs and crippled a few others..."
"Ah?" Qin Wanru trembled and fainted completely.
The Chu sisters kept pinching her fingers, which finally brought her back to her senses.
After she woke up, she immediately said, "Grandma, I want to go see Father and the others."
Zuan nodded and immediately shouted, "Lead the way!"
The group felt extremely heavy-hearted. They hoped that the attackers would only target a few insignificant people, but they also knew very well that if they were going to take action, how could they only choose a few insignificant people?
At Zu An's signal, the officials from the Ministry of Justice, who were still awake, carried those who had fainted and followed them.
Many people were already trembling, clearly realizing that this group had a close relationship with the Qin family, but they had no way to refuse under Zu An's pressure.
At this moment, the guards on the prison finally realized what was happening, and a group of soldiers rushed over upon hearing the news.
Upon seeing a group of Ministry of Justice officials being held hostage, their expressions changed drastically, and they drew their knives and surrounded the group.
Seeing this, Qin Wanru turned pale. Only now did she truly realize how terrifying the Heavenly Prison was.
But when she thought of the suffering her father and brothers had endured in the prison, a surge of anger rose in her heart, and she was no longer so afraid.
"Release the lords immediately!" the soldiers shouted.
"Get lost!" Zuan directly used the Lion's Roar technique, and an invisible sound wave spread out.
"Ah!" A series of screams erupted as the soldiers clutched their heads and crouched on the ground in agony.
Jiang Luofu was secretly alarmed. How could a casual shout have rendered so many soldiers incapable of fighting?
How many secrets does this kid still have that I don't know?
She strode forward and stood in front of the crowd, saying loudly, "This is the Chancellor of the National Academy. I am Jiang Luofu. We are investigating this case because we suspect that someone in the prison is using torture. Everyone should stay at their posts and not get involved if you are not a member of the group!"
Those people were originally stunned and terrified by Zu An, but now that they had this way out, naturally no one was foolish enough to go and die.
The group headed straight for the place where the Qin family was being held. Along the way, the guards of the prison would involuntarily make way for them.
Seeing this scene, Murong Qinghe was somewhat lost in thought. There are often legends on the battlefield, and some brave generals who are invincible on the battlefield are just as unstoppable. But these usually only exist in legends. After all, the battlefield nowadays is full of various large formations. If you charge too fiercely alone, you will easily be wiped out by the enemy's formation. How can you have the chance to achieve the effect in the stories?
But it was only at this moment that Murong Qinghe realized that such a person truly existed in the world.
No wonder Miss Chu was so attached to him even though she knew he was her brother-in-law...
Sigh, I wonder how the Qin family is doing now.
In no time, a group of people arrived at the cell where the Qin family was being held.
"Guangyuan, Yongde!" They were not hard to find; with obvious groans of pain, Qin Wanru and the others arrived at their cell first.
Seeing the two men clutching their legs and screaming in pain, Qin Wanru's eyes immediately turned red. It was clear that their legs had been broken!
