Chapter 58 Seeking Justice
Ruan Wei: Fu Yi is worthy of being the male lead, even the divine eye can’t recognize his face.
Chen Yuan couldn't see herself, perhaps because she was an alien soul.
It’s okay if you can’t see clearly.
Chen Yuan, "Don't get sidetracked."
He narrowed his eyes slightly, but a flash of light still passed by. "I'm not curious about what you and that cripple from the Ten Thousand Swords Sect are. I know you're a natural spirit, so I don't care what he is."
"Tell me your humble opinion."
Ruan Wei's expression became more serious. "May I ask, sir, what you are doing is seeking justice for Qin Luo?"
In an instant, Chen Yuan's expression turned a little cold, and his voice was clear and it was difficult to tell whether he was happy or angry:
"Him? What justice can I ask for him?"
Ruan Wei looked up at Chen Yuan, her eyes clear and bright, like only a young person could be. She continued, "I've thought about this for a long time. What is the purpose of sir capturing people but not killing them in order to lure us cultivators here?"
"You asked Qin Luo to look for someone who could see him, so he started looking two months ago and finally found me."
Her eyes were calm, her eyelashes fluttering. "But the news that I'm a natural spirit has been circulating for a few days now."
"I think being born with a spiritual body is not a necessary condition. There are many people in the world who can recognize Qin Luo as a spirit. Or maybe he is looking for one of the ten major sects or a certain family."
For example, the Wanjian Sect and the Penglai Immortal Sect.
"Only the ten great sects and aristocratic families can have such talented people."
In short, Chen Yuan wanted to find a sect or family that was quite influential in Tongzhou.
Ruan Wei paused for a moment.
Chen Yuan, "Continue."
He opened his third eye and looked at Ruan Wei for a long time.
Chen Yuan never thought that Ruan Wei would guess so clearly.
"I have a guess. Sir, you captured people to lure them in. Qin Luo sought me out to seek kindness. Then why did Empress Qin?"
Ruan Wei smiled and pointed her finger at her spine:
"She is used for communication, for half-demons, for Buddha bones, and for killing."
"Sir, since you have divine eyes, you can see that my brother died in his previous life by offering Buddha bones; Cang Ling is a half-demon, his soul is disordered and his way of cultivation is killing; Qin Luo is a half-demon born from your brother and the spirit race."
The girl in front of him was like a deity descended to earth, with her seven orifices sharp enough to see through the world. As she chuckled, a few strands of silk slipped down from her bun and softly rested in front of her eyelashes, somewhat breaking the cold and insightful aura around her.
She laughed.
"That's enough hints."
Ruan Wei slowly spoke:
"I guess what you are investigating is the whereabouts of Qin Luo's body and the death of your brother."
As she spoke, she noticed Chen Yuan's expression suddenly change.
Guessed it right.
"The source of Queen Qin's spirit stone is not legitimate, the mayor is guilty, and the townspeople are indifferent to Qin Luo, with a bit of disgust but not fear."
In fact, Ruan Wei had thought of many, many options.
This was the one thing she was most unsure of, but it was also the one she inexplicably believed in.
To be honest, they had almost no evidence and could not move forward.
But Ruan Weitian felt that something was wrong. The story about the demons and spirits that Empress Qin told was not right.
The demon race loves freedom, but they will never take away only their spirit race wives and abandon their own children. Because reproduction is difficult, the demon race's feelings for their cubs are even deeper than those of the spirit race.
This is the nature of the demon race to love their children deeply.
Ruan Wei sensed something was wrong with the story almost instantly.
The demon race, even cold-blooded animals like snakes, would not abandon their own children; only the spirit race would have various reasons to harm their own children.
It can't be the cuckoo bird family, right?
Ruan Wei looked at Chen Yuan carefully. Seeing that he was dressed in crow-blue clothes, he didn't look like a birdman who loved bright colors.
Chen Yuan, “…”
He clapped his hands and couldn't help laughing: "You are really - smart."
"right,"
Chen Yuan nodded. "My brother, Qin Luo's father, has been dead for more than ten years."
"You spirits have life cards, and we demons naturally have similar methods."
He shook his sleeves, revealing his wrist. On his wrist, a red jade ring was flashing, and the halo was gorgeous. It seemed to condense into a ray of light pointing directly to the door, where Qin Luo had run out.
Chen Yuan, "This is a guide bracelet made from my brother's heart blood. I followed the thread all the way to this town."
Speaking of this, he couldn't help feeling a little irritated.
Chen Yuan was furious. "You Spirit Tribe members are always so troublesome. We, the Xiantian Demon Tribe members, have to take an exam when we come to search for people. If we fail, we are not allowed to come. If we come secretly, we will be wanted. This makes me so angry!"
Ruan Wei, “…”
She calculated the days and said cautiously, "Could it be...it took the teacher more than ten years to pass the exam?"
Isn’t this too stupid?
Chen Yuan instantly became even more furious, "It's all your fault, the Elven Clan!"
"Your spirit people's calligraphy is like painting. It takes years to learn a single character from a master! Also, who made the brush and ink? You can't even hold it steady, and yet you stipulate that you have to finish writing within an incense stick!"
"Finally, who the hell is responsible for setting the exam questions? The questions change every year, and I'm almost dying of memorizing them!"
Chen Yuan's resentment is so deep that no evil spirit in the world is as powerful as him.
It was obvious that he was extremely angry, and he even dropped his scholarly gentle demeanor.
This is learning!
Ruan Wei shrank his neck.
But she still asked a question very seriously, "So, how did you become a teacher?"
This is really important!
The demons teach the spirits their own knowledge, it's magical.
Chen Yuan, “…”
He gritted his teeth.
"Thanks to those rubbish questions, I'm more than capable of teaching this young man from this shabby town!"
Ruan Wei realized.
That is to say, a good memory is indeed not as good as a bad pen.
How about asking Mr. Chen Yuan to teach the eldest and third brothers some learning methods?
Reduce some of the teaching burden of the audience.
Chen Yuan quickly calmed himself down and said in a deep voice, "You guessed right."
"Unlike you fakes, I'm here to truly find my relatives."
He looked at Ruan Wei with disdain, but Ruan Wei didn't feel embarrassed at all. Instead, she smiled at him.
Chen Yuan, “…”
He had never thought that a female cultivator from the Spirit Clan would be even more shameless than their demon clan. Chen Yuan had no choice but to ignore this taunt and continued:
"I know my brother is dead, but it's common for demons to die while undergoing tribulation. It's nothing serious. The clan leader asked me to come out and see where he died. I'll take whatever I can back."
"After all, we Xiantian demons are full of treasures, and we can't let you black-hearted spirits get away with it."
Ruan Wei, “…”
That being said, I really want to ~
Chen Yuan said that he came to this town following the guide bracelet, but found that the bracelet pointed to Qin Luo's soul, and Qin Luo's body was missing.
Qin Luo is his brother's bloodline, so it's normal for the guiding bracelet to point to the wrong person.
A half-demon is still a demon, so Chen Yuan planned to find Qin Luo's body first, and then take him back to the tribe to teach him well.
It turned out to be a big deal to find it.
Chen Yuan discovered that his brother's death was closely related to this small town.
Then Chen Yuan followed Qin Luo's clues and found out about Queen Qin's money and the mayor... Although the demons accepted their fate, they were also vengeful. This grudge had to be avenged, so Chen Yuan stayed.
Things have reached a bottleneck here.
Chen Yuan knew that this matter was related to the mayor, but he was unable to find the next clue.
He felt that this was related to a lack of power.
Then, he pretended to be a god or Buddha and tricked Queen Qin into giving him her divine eyes. He also captured a few people every month to attract the attention of the Wanjian Sect.
This is to attract the Wanjian Sect to help investigate the case.
After hearing this, Ruan Wei was full of questions.
After a while.
Ruan Wei: "...Why not just arrest the mayor and question him?"
In Ruan Wei's opinion, this was the most convenient and effective method. She didn't understand why Chen Yuan was willing to spend two months setting up such a complicated plan.
Hearing this.
Chen Yuan looked at her in disbelief, and said confidently:
“It’s against the law!”
Chen Yuan, "According to your Elven laws, capturing and raising someone is not considered a serious crime. The old woman gave it to me voluntarily, but interrogating her privately is a serious crime!"
"You don't even know this?"
He looked doubtful, "Are you still a spirit?"
Speak righteously and with a sense of justice.
“…”
Ruan Wei seemed to be able to see the extremely shining and piercing halo of justice behind Chen Yuan.
Very good, I am not, you are.
Ruan Wei was silent for a long time, trying to confirm, "Because it would violate the laws of the Eldar, so you don't do it?"
"nonsense."
Chen Yuan, "You spirits are very overbearing. In Tongzhou, no matter who breaks the law, they are all guilty."
"Even if I'm too... ahem, it's useless."
He was extremely righteous. "I have violated the laws of your Eldar. Everything can be judged by the law. Seeking revenge privately is a sin."
Ruan Wei, “…”
Ruan Wei recalled his past exploits, including but not limited to: breaking into the Ruan family, kidnapping Ruan Jianjiang, opening Ruan He's private vault, picking locks and ransacking homes, etc.
OK, OK.
It is you, the innate demon race, who abide by the law.
She can't continue to be a proper disciple for even one more day!
