Chapter 225: Questioning by the Divine Constable



"Ah?" Ning Zhuo looked surprised.

"Speak!" Zhu Xuanji shouted, and at the same time a huge pressure burst out, like an invisible mountain, suddenly pressing down on Ning Zhuo.

The pressure was so great that Ning Zhuo was caught off guard and almost fell to his knees.

He staggered and his back inevitably bent, but he did not kneel. Instead, he maintained his standing posture with difficulty, looking at Zhu Xuanji with a hint of stubbornness in his eyes.

Zhu Xuanji's eyes were shining with golden light, and he saw through Ning Zhuo with an unprecedented tough attitude!

The extremely sharp gaze made Ning Zhuo feel as if he was naked and surrounded by snow and ice.

Ning Zhuo frantically urged the ninth level of magic power and injected it into the cloud shadow bud under the root of his tongue.

Yunying Yinhanbao was activated, temporarily and with difficulty resisting Zhu Xuanji's insight.

But it is clear that resistance has a time limit.

Ning Zhuo was sweating profusely, gritted his teeth and spoke with difficulty: "Yes, I am selfish."

"I want to start a business of making explosive monkeys. I want to expand my business. The Monkey Head Gang is my biggest obstacle."

"Yuan Dasheng's existence has blocked my path to wealth."

"So when I saw it was seriously injured and dying in the Fire Persimmon Festival, I secretly had the intention to kill it and took the initiative to ask Master Feisi for a token."

"With this identity token, I entered the Monkey Head Gang and convinced Yuan Er to give up treating Yuan Dasheng."

"Yuan Dasheng eventually died from his injuries, and I am the real murderer!"

"Haha." Zhu Xuanji sneered three times: "What else?"

His questioning was like a cold blade, directly pointing at Ning Zhuo's neck.

Ning Zhuo looked at Zhu Xuanji with difficulty, his expression full of shock and panic.

Zhu Xuanji's eyes were like those of a hawk, fixed firmly on Ning Zhuo: "Don't tell me that this is the only reason you killed Yuan Dasheng!"

"Speak nicely."

"Confess and be treated leniently; resist and be treated severely."

"You should understand: if you continue to conceal it, what will happen to you?"

"You should know that I am a member of the Nandou royal family and a member of the Divine Detective Department."

"If we really want to settle accounts, your Ning family is just a mantis under the wheels. Even the Meng family is nothing more than a jerk!"

Ning Zhuo was covered in cold sweat, his face was extremely pale, and his body was shaking.

His mind was boiling with thoughts, various ideas and countless questions.

"What on earth did Zhu Xuanji discover that he suddenly came to question me?"

"What should I say? What do I need to say?"

"How far can I gamble?!"

Seeing Ning Zhuo's hesitation, Zhu Xuanji snorted unhappily and suddenly increased the pressure.

Ning Zhuo could no longer hold on, and under the huge invisible pressure, he knelt on one knee on the ground.

Seeing Ning Zhuo's stubborn look, Zhu Xuanji asked again: "Where is the Demonic Scripture?"

Ning Zhuo raised his head with difficulty, his doubtful expression was not fake, he really didn't know what the Demonic Scripture was! "I don't know. What kind of Demonic Scripture is it?" Ning Zhuo immediately said, "I have never seen any Scripture, nor have I heard of any Scripture."

This is true! Zhu Xuanji has a strong lie detection ability and can distinguish the truth from the lies.

Zhu Xuanji frowned: "If you don't have the true scriptures, how can you practice magic? How can you collect the flesh and blood of your people?"

Ning Zhuo hurriedly said, "Sir, it's unfair!"

"I've been working on stand-in puppets."

"It is normal to collect the blood and flesh of the tribe members and use them for this purpose."

"You can look at my research log. It's right here."

Zhu Xuanji glanced around, and the next moment, he used his mind to obtain many drawings and several jade slips.

Among them, there are indeed records of research and experiments on substitute puppets, as well as many small directions and small results that Ning Zhuo had envisioned.

Ning Zhuo was cautious by nature, and he had already been preparing these evidences when he announced to the public that he was going to develop a substitute puppet.

Zhu Xuanji looked at the evidence and remained silent.

puff.

Ning Zhuo resisted the pressure hard and reached his limit, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

He let out a miserable laugh, then simply changed his posture and sat down on the ground.

He looked at Zhu Xuanji, breathing heavily, and put on an attitude of admitting his guilt and accepting punishment.

He said sadly: "This day has finally come."

"I knew this day would come. I knew..."

Seeing Ning Zhuo admitting defeat and wanting to cooperate, Zhu Xuanji slowly eased some of the pressure, giving Ning Zhuo some breathing space: "You are finally willing to say it?"

However, such a small action brought great spiritual touch to Ning Zhuo, allowing Ning Zhuo to collect the most crucial information.

Ning Zhuo secretly gritted his teeth and decided to take a gamble! He swallowed hard and shook his head at Zhu Xuanji, saying, "Master Shenpo, you know the inside story, and I've been exposed, but I can't say anything."

"I am just a nobody. If I tell the truth, I will surely die!"

"Huh?!" Zhu Xuanji raised his eyebrows. "You dare to resist?!"

He looked Ning Zhuo over with a scrutinizing gaze: "Ning Zhuo, it's not easy for you to get to where you are today. You must cherish it."

Ning Zhuo smiled bitterly: "Of course I know - it's really not easy for me to get to where I am today! No one knows it better than me."

"I was born in the lower class, on the edge of the family branch, just a small figure."

“I’m like a little grass that pops up from the soil, taking root in the mud and shit.”

"I need to work as hard as I can and absorb all the nutrients I can get so that I can grow."

"Just like I control the black market, I also know that this job is very dirty and the righteous monks would not bother to get involved."

"What can I do?"

"No matter how smelly the feces is, as long as it is nutritious to me, I will do my best to get it."

Having said that, Ning Zhuo looked up at Zhu Xuanji with a look of jealousy in his eyes.

"Master Zhu, you will never understand me!"

"You are a royal family, you are superior from birth."

"Your cultivation is as high as the Golden Core, you can easily crush me."

"Just like now, you can easily crush me to death with just one foot, just like crushing an ant on the roadside."

"You obviously know the truth, why are you making things difficult for a nobody like me?!"

The more Ning Zhuo spoke, the more aggrieved he felt, and the angrier he became.

His face was twisted with horrible hatred.

"I actually just want to live well and practice well!"

"I have no choice. At certain critical moments, I am too weak and I have no one to rely on. I can only do some not-so-glorious things in exchange for the support of others."

"I expected you to arrest me today. As long as you produce evidence of my crime, I will confess."

"But if you want me to testify, to serve as a witness, and to become a breakthrough in the case, I absolutely cannot do it."

"You can just kill me."

"Because I am not just one person, I also have my family, my relatives and friends, and I don't want to implicate them."

"I am responsible for my own actions!"

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Having said this, Ning Zhuo revealed a resolute look of being ready to die.

Zhu Xuanji fell into silence.

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit had been watching the fun, but now it had a look of confusion on its face.

It couldn't understand what Ning Zhuo was saying now.

"What on earth are you talking about?"

Although it didn't understand, it had already sensed a bad trend.

Because Zhu Xuanji actually slowly restrained his momentum and no longer put pressure on Ning Zhuo.

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit couldn't help but growl, "Zhu Xuanji, what are you doing? You've already found him!"

"That's right, the young monk in front of you is the murderer. He is the murderer who blew up the Immortal Palace!"

However, when Zhu Xuanji looked down at Ning Zhuo at this time, there was a hint of compassion in his eyes.

His name is Zhu Xuanji, and his title is Cha Yin and An Min.

He has always shown great sympathy and compassion to the lower-level monks.

In Xuanlin City, he could take risks just for a bowl of sugar water from a village elder and investigate the corruption of the Su family.

In the royal capital, he faced the King of Nandou and bluntly told him that he wanted to curb these large cultivation clans and actively support talented cultivators at the grassroots level.

He was framed by Li Leifeng before his death. Instead of being angry, he was sad and willing to be schemed in order to search for the most suitable principal for the Salesian Kindergarten.

He was naturally wary of the huge forces that were deeply entrenched in the Nandou Kingdom, and he had deep compassion for the monks at the middle and lower levels.

Looking at Ning Zhuo who was slumped on the ground, sweating profusely and in a very miserable state.

Zhu Xuanji sighed, and for the first time, his expression showed some fluctuations: "You little brat, are too good at monopolizing. If you try to gain advantages like this, you will only end up seeking your own death."

"You obviously have talent, why are you so eager for quick success?"

There was a sense of disappointment in his tone.

Ning Zhuo smiled bitterly: "My Lord, it was after my soul entered the Immortal Palace that I discovered that the head of the puppet's body was very large. After that, I realized that I have talent."

Zhu Xuanji remained silent.

In his eyes, Ning Zhuo was given another impression of being pitiful, sad and ridiculous, a person who had been cruelly mocked by fate.

"Ning Zhuo, you have talent, you are an outstanding young man."

"I'll give you one chance."

"Think about it carefully, and give me an explanation within three days!"

"Please remember that your explanation to me will determine your future."

Zhu Xuanji put his hands behind his back, flew up into the sky, and then his body turned into a rainbow of light and flew away into the sky.

Ning Zhuo remained slumped in the same place, motionless, for a long time.

The noisy sound was getting closer and closer. It was the monks’ guards who were rushing over from near his house.

But what's the use of this? Facing Zhu Xuanji, the power that Ning Zhuo had built up was like paper, and he couldn't rely on it at all.

"Too weak, too weak!"

"My strength is still too weak."

Ning Zhuo clenched his fists tightly, his fingers digging deeply into his flesh.

Lava Fairy Palace, main hall.

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit was dumbfounded! He continued to watch eagerly until Zhu Xuanji flew away, hoping that he would come to his senses and go back to kill Ning Zhuo.

"No, are you leaving now?"

"He is the murderer, he is the real murderer!"

"But why do I feel that you still pity him?"

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit was completely puzzled and felt it was quite outrageous.

It wanted to watch the fun and wanted to see Ning Zhuo being caught, but what it saw was that Ning Zhuo had survived another fatal crisis.

Even the great detective Zhu Xuanji was fooled by Ning Zhuo.

"Are you a detective?"

"You are fake!"

The dragon turtle's fire spirit was rapidly weakened.

It shifted its gaze back to Ning Zhuo, who was being helped up and surrounded by many monks.

"He's really good at pretending!"

Looking at Ning Zhuo who was being comforted and consoled, Long Yuan Huo Ling felt a chill in his heart.

"This young man is so cunning and scary!"

"Is he really only sixteen?"

"Could he be an old monster who has practiced for five hundred years and is reincarnated?"

The dragon turtle fire spirit became more and more afraid of Ning Zhuo.

It warned itself that it must be careful with its words and actions the next time it came into contact with this young monk!

Be careful with what you say and do!
