The sound of fighting attracted all the law enforcement officers who were resting in the palace.
"Ah - this person is the one who cut off my arm!" shouted a law enforcement officer. It was Zheng Qiao, one of his sleeves was empty.
Wang Xiaohai glanced at Zheng Qiao. If an arm is broken in this place, it can't be reconnected! It's indeed the era of low medical standards, or maybe it's because they don't have evil spirit constitutions.
"Who is this person?" At this moment, there were five law enforcement officers in the palace on Jietian Peak, and the other five had gone out and had not returned.
That evening was the birthday of Gao Fan, the captain of the third team's law enforcement team. The five of them went out to get gifts and food in preparation for the celebration.
"He's an inspector. May I know which team he's from?" Zheng Qiao said.
"Could it be from our team three?" someone exclaimed.
"So what if he is from Team Three? Can he still supervise me, the captain?" A tall and mighty man walked out of the hall and glared at Wang Xiaohai in front of him. It was Gao Fan, the captain of Team Three, who had awakened to his limit and was at the same realm as Jue Tianhe before, but his level and experience might be slightly inferior. After all, Jue Tianhe had thousands of years of experience.
Gao Fan couldn't control his anger. Today was his 300th birthday, but this inspector arrested his men in front of the palace and slapped him in the face, clearly showing no respect for him!
Inspectors can only investigate personnel below the rank of team leader. Team leaders need the personal instruction of the deputy palace master or even the palace master before they can be investigated. They are high-ranking officials in Baiyu Palace.
"I suddenly thought of something. Your team members all have so much money, so wouldn't you be as wealthy as a nation? I heard that you designated the Great Power's tribute. Do you privately set a price, like how much for ten years, or how much for fifty years?" Wang Xiaohai said, "It's precisely because these awakened ones bought the Great Power's tribute position from you that they let their families make a fortune after taking office to pay off the money they owe you!"
"You... are talking nonsense!" Gao Fan clenched his fists. "You are slandering and framing a Bai Yugong law enforcement captain. Do you know what the consequences will be?"
"I don't know. Will you give me half of the silver you got? Or even more extreme, give me all of it?"
Wang Xiaohai grabbed the chained Sun Chunbai and said, "This man is from your law enforcement team. He attacked me, spoke rudely, and even embezzled money from Bai Yugong. What do you think we should do?"
"You are a new inspector, but you are so aggressive. I advise you to be careful and don't hang around outside and die accidentally. Bai Yugong will only record the accidental death of an inspector and replace him with a new one." Gao Fan said coldly.
"Are you threatening me?"
"If you think so, what can you do even if I threaten you?" Gao Fan pinched his knuckles and twisted his neck.
"Nothing much, I just like to eliminate those who threaten me like mosquitoes." Wang Xiaohai said, "Unless... unless he obediently hands over all his assets to me, then I will consider sparing his life."
Wang Xiaohai didn't want to say "unless," but the image of Lin Yiyi surfaced in his mind. He thought that if he killed the captain of Team Three, he would really offend Bai Yugong! He wasn't afraid, but after he left Beixingzhou, it was inevitable that the people of Bai Yugong would cause trouble for Lin Yiyi. The captain of Team Nine would definitely not be able to keep the secret under pressure from the top, and he also wanted to avoid killing. Peace is the most valuable thing. With ties and concerns, an invincible person will have weaknesses.
"You are an inspector at the peak of awakening, yet you speak such nonsense to me, a person at the limit. Who gives you such courage?" Team Three captain Gao Fan did not dare to fight with Wang Xiaohai easily. After all, they were all colleagues of Bai Yugong, not ordinary team members and worshippers, but high-level officials. If something happened to the inspector here, it would be obvious that he did it!
The situation this time was that neither of them could kill anyone, as they both had concerns, so they just exchanged a few greetings and threatened each other.
It is a fact that Sun Chunbai really attacked Wang Xiaohai. There is nothing wrong with Wang Xiaohai arresting him. No one can say anything, not even the deputy palace master of Baiyu Palace can defend him.
"You are just talking nonsense to me. I am not your subordinate, so there is no need for me to act according to your mood." The red sword in Wang Xiaohai's hand was as red as blood. It stabbed into the ground and half of it sank into the ground. It was extremely sharp.
There is a special symbol on the sword that is faintly visible, as if telling everyone the power of this sword condensed from martial energy.
Gao Fan, the captain of Team Three, saw the symbol, and his face changed. He also had a similar symbol within him. This symbol represented someone who had mastered awakening skills, signifying an unparalleled noble status! There were thousands of awakened individuals in Beixing Continent, but fewer than ten possessed awakening skills! He understood why the Baiyu Palace leadership valued this person so highly, and why he could become an inspector at such a young age!
Now Gao Fan was not sure whether he could defeat this inspector. If the opponent's awakening skill happened to restrain him, he really would not be able to gain the upper hand.
In reality, Gao Fan had no idea that Wang Xiaohai didn't even consider him as a teammate. Wang Xiaohai thought, "At the Grandmaster level, I can fight Jue Tianhe, who is at the limit of Martial Saint. No matter how strong this guy is, he can't be stronger than Jue Tianhe. I guess he can't even beat me before I awaken, let alone after my special awakening. I guess he'd be lucky if he can just block one of my attacks!"
"Today is my birthday. Please give me some face and let my team member Sun Chunbai go, okay? Or how much money do you want?" Gao Fan's tone weakened. He believed that there was nothing in the world that could not be solved with money. If it really could not be solved, it must be because the money was not enough.
Wang Xiaohai really didn't have much hatred towards Sun Chunbai. This guy just spoke rudely and he simply wanted to teach him a lesson. Since the other person had taken a step back first, he didn't feel comfortable pressing him any further.
"Do I look like someone who's short of money? Forget it, since you've said so, it would seem stingy if I don't take it." Wang Xiaohai said, "I'll just take half of Sun Chunbai's property as compensation. If he only has two taels of silver, then only one tael is enough. If he has more, then more will be required."
Although he is not short of money, he cannot refuse something that is offered to him for free!
"Sun Chunbai, how much property do you have? Tell the truth. You know I have the ability to detect lies!" Captain Gao Fan asked the tied-up Sun Chunbai.
This kind of question is private. Generally, few captains would ask their team members this question. Asking it would mean no trust and would lose people's support. But now it is a special case. The inspector has said that the bigwigs are trustworthy and they will generally let them go if they say so. Of course he has to ask. In fact, he also has selfish motives. He also wants to know how much money the team members have earned in the hundreds of years with him?
"Captain, this..." Sun Chunbai stammered.
"Stop nagging and just speak!" Gao Fan shouted.
"Six...six billion taels of silver." Sun Chunbai was shocked. The captain's power had been engraved in his heart for a hundred years, and he didn't dare to hide anything.
"What? Six billion! You are richer than me! How did you do it?" Gao Fan was also shocked. He thought it would be good enough if his team members had 100 million silver taels, but he didn't expect there were so many. His property was only 1 billion!
