Chapter 155 Finally Arrested
Nanshan and the others ran out and handcuffed Shangguan Peiyu. "Shangguan Peiyu, you killed him for the evil cultivator, and you cursed Lord Tang. Who instructed you to do this?"
Shangguan Peiyu had never been so disheveled. Her face was covered in blood, her hair was messy and stained with sweat, and her clothes were filthy. She glared angrily at Nanshan and Yu Xiaoluo, "Kill them if you want, why ask me anything?"
Yu Xiaoluo giggled, "Brother Nanshan, we already know who the mastermind is, because that person has already suffered a backlash, and even the roof of his house collapsed."
The crowd began to discuss the incident, asking, "The roof collapsed, do you know who did it?"
"Let me think, let me think... There seems to be a house in our neighborhood whose roof was struck by lightning and collapsed. It looks like it belongs to Deputy City Lord Mo... Could it be—"
Everyone exploded at this point, "Deputy City Lord Mo, Mo Qunfei? It's highly possible that the deputy is messing with the head!"
Among the viewers watching the live stream were people from that neighborhood. One viewer commented, "I'm going to check it out, I'll be right there—wait for me, wait for me."
A short while later, he excitedly replied, "[It's true, it's true! Both roofs of Vice City Lord Mo's houses have collapsed. Master Yu, handsome Yu, is that him?]"
Upon seeing this comment, Yu Liang coughed forcefully, "I didn't say anything, but if Luo Luo said she suffered a backlash, then she must have suffered a backlash. My sister only speaks the truth, and she might even go crazy, hehe. That's the terrifying thing about evil magic. So, you shouldn't try it lightly or have any crooked thoughts. You should be righteous people."
In an instant, Yu Liang had transformed into a champion of justice.
Yu Xiaolu waved to everyone, "Alright, alright, everyone, we've caught Shangguan Peiyu, that's all for the live stream."
Netizens were stunned. This was the first time they had ever seen such a casual live stream. It started and ended whenever it wanted, without any prior notice. It was unprofessional, but everyone accepted it without complaint.
Just as everyone was about to say something, the screen went black. They wailed at the screen, while the netizens who had rushed to the scene to watch the commotion were amused. It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early.
Although Shangguan Peiyu was handcuffed, Nanshan was still a little scared. She could suck people's souls, and she was no ordinary prisoner. "Luo Luo, can this really hold Shangguan Peiyu?"
He remembered how Ming Jiuyou escaped and how much effort it took to kill him. This Shangguan Peiyu was also a troublesome person.
Yu Xiaolu tilted her head and thought for a moment. That's right, it would be troublesome if she escaped.
"Then I'll perform a minor surgery on her."
Yu Xiaoluo picked up a small knife and made a series of quick, swift movements in just a second. Before anyone could even see what she was doing, Yu Xiaoluo had already withdrawn her hand and said with a grin, "It's done! You can take it now."
Only then did Shangguan Peiyu feel the excruciating pain in her wrist, and her cultivation was dissipating like air leaking out. She was both angry and anxious, "Yu Xiaoluo, what have you done to me! You bitch, I will haunt you even as a ghost!"
"I was afraid you'd be too much trouble jumping around, so I cut all your tendons and ligaments to save you some energy. You have to understand my good intentions, Sister Shangguan."
"I understand your sister!" Shangguan Peiyu was so angry that her blood boiled, and she fainted on the spot.
Yu Xiaoluo happily shouted "Yay!" and made a hand gesture.
Everyone watching the commotion took pictures of the scene.
At this moment, Lord Tang also arrived and tightly grasped Yu Xiaoluo's hand. "Thank you, Miss Yu. On behalf of the people of Kangba City, I am prepared to present you with the Kangba City Outstanding Contribution Award and the Enthusiastic Citizen Award. We especially thank you for your contributions to Kangba City and for maintaining the safety of the citizens."
Yu Xiaolu happily hummed in agreement and nodded, "I just did what I could. Today, with the help of other colleagues in the metaphysics community and police officers, it wasn't just my achievement. It was the cooperation of all parties that made it go so smoothly. Lord Tang, you're too kind."
Actually, everyone knows that Yu Xiaoluo could handle this all by herself.
But she insisted on calling so many people.
Since the members of several major metaphysical schools have come together today, I'll do them a favor and ease the tension with them. Otherwise, I might become too powerful and offend others, which wouldn't be a good thing.
Yu Xiaoluo had no ambition for a monopoly. After all, she was the kind of person who wanted to complete her mission and run away. Why would she want to create a monopoly and become the dominant player? Who would clean up the mess?
Fortunately, we've recruited so many truly talented metaphysicians now, so when Third Brother takes over, things shouldn't get too messy. As long as Third Brother can lead everyone to make a living and do some good deeds, that's fine.
To avoid straining relations with other families, if she runs away, the Yu family's metaphysics school will be smashed to pieces.
Therefore, everyone was very satisfied with these words, and the people from other metaphysical families became more and more convinced of Yu Xiaoluo's abilities.
Reporters at the scene quickly captured the moment, knowing it would soon trend on social media. So, whoever posted it first would get more attention, and everyone was taking photos while simultaneously sharing the information on their social media accounts.
Just then, a girl suddenly rushed over and hugged Yu Xiaoluo. Yu Xiaoluo instinctively wanted to fight back, but luckily she realized it was Zhao Tianxin.
Zhao Tianxin was crying her eyes out, sobbing as she said, "Thank you, Miss Yu, you caught my father's murderer—my father can finally rest in peace—"
She originally wanted to say that her father could rest in peace, but when she thought that his soul had disappeared and he had completely vanished from this world, she couldn't help but shed tears again.
Yu Xiaolu patted her shoulder, "Live well and treat your family members well; that's the best way to repay your father. Go back and get some rest."
Yes, although Zhao Tianxin was arranged to stay at the Yu family's house these past few days, she had been worried and fearful, often dreaming about her father and the person who saw Shangguan Peiyu's Soul Eater. She hadn't slept well at all and had dark circles under her eyes. Now she can finally get a good night's sleep.
Zhao Tianxin nodded, wiped her eyes, and said goodbye to Yu Xiaoluo with a grateful look.
Yes, she can finally go home now. Shangguan Peiyu is in jail, and Tian Tie is facing the death penalty. She can still fight to get back the right to use the villa, and her father's things can be returned to their rightful owners.
However, this matter should be taken slowly. She needs to rest and adjust her mindset. After experiencing all this, Zhao Tianxin seems to have matured a lot.
This matter has finally come to an end, and the city of Kham, which was filled with anxiety, can finally have some peace and quiet for a while.
