With the truth talisman, no matter what Qi Yongde thought in his heart, all the truth in his heart was dug out by Jiang Chunian and Taoist Qinghui.
After asking, Qi Yongde's face turned pale.
"I never thought that despite my brilliant life, I would end up falling into your hands." Qi Yongde looked at Jiang Chunian with a complicated expression. "However, my defeat is not unfair. Miss Jiang was a fairy-like figure eighty years ago, and her charm remains the same eighty years later. I am convinced by my defeat to you."
Jiang Chunian looked at Qi Yongde and said, "You have practiced Taoism for decades and have mastered the Dao. If you hold fast to your Dao heart, you may be able to achieve Dao and transform into a feather in the future. It's a pity that you ruined it all with a single thought."
Qi Yongde sneered: "Achieve enlightenment and transform into a fairy? What a joke you are talking about. In this world, have you ever seen anyone achieve enlightenment and transform into an immortal? We practice Taoism, but in the end, we are just a handful of yellow earth and our souls return to the underworld. If I go to the underworld, I can be reborn into a good family with my merits, but the birth rate in the human world has dropped significantly, causing the underworld to be overcrowded with ghosts. Even if I go to the underworld, I don’t know when I can return to the human world, and I can only be a lonely ghost! But why? I can call the wind and rain in the human world, and I have achieved success and fame. Why should I go to the underworld and be a lonely ghost? I am unwilling to do that."
"So you want to harm the women of the mortal world?" Jiang Chunian sneered. "Just for your slim hopes, you've exploited all the women of the mortal world. Have you ever thought about who will be harmed in the end? Not just the mortal world, but the underworld as well. When there are fewer and fewer women in the world, there will be fewer and fewer children born every day, and you will have even less chance of reincarnation. Both the mortal world and the underworld will face great disasters! When that happens, no one will benefit."
"No," Qi Yongde said, "It's true that too many women are being lost in the human world these days, but that's because we haven't found a better way to prevent women in the mortal world from being contaminated by Yin energy while being with male ghosts. As long as we find a way, women in the human world won't be lost as easily as they are now. What's more, Tian Ling is already pregnant with a ghost baby. As long as we figure out the secret of her pregnancy, we can greatly increase the chances of women getting pregnant, and then more children can be born!"
Jiang Chunian sneered, "These women are already fertile. If that's the case, why don't you find a way to make them reproduce willingly? Instead, they have to reproduce with ghosts, letting you old monsters rely on rebirth and disrupt the order of the human world? What's more, you don't like the underworld simply because it's the same as it was thousands of years ago: eerie and terrifying, with countless ghosts, yet poorly managed, it's a mess, and there's no happiness at all. But what if the underworld could be like the human world with tall buildings and advanced technology?"
"How could the underworld be the same as the human world?" Qi Yongde laughed at Jiang Chunian's naiveté. "The underworld has existed for thousands of years, and those judges are rigid and old-fashioned. They only manage according to their existing methods. How could they possibly dream of making the underworld like the human world? Even if they had the idea, how could they possibly achieve it?"
"I've never done it before, so how do I know it won't work?" Jiang Chunian sneered, "I, Jiang Chunian, simply don't believe it. Just wait, I will persuade the King of Hell to reform and rebuild the underworld."
"Okay, then I'll watch." Qi Yongde laughed at Jiang Chunian for being too conceited.
Jiang Chunian and Taoist Qinghui came out of the interrogation room.
Taoist Qinghui handed the list to Wubai and said, "Immediately arrange for someone to arrest them."
Qi Yongde has already revealed the responsible persons for the four districts of East, West, South and North, as well as some important accomplices. Except for Ming Chi who has been executed, all the others must be brought to justice.
Wu Bai looked at the number of people and said, "With so many people, I'm afraid we don't have enough manpower."
Taoist Qinghui said, "Then let the Ministry of Public Security and the special police assist in arresting him."
Wubai nodded, "Yes. I'll go apply right away."
Taoist Master Qinghui returned to the office and first called the senior leader to briefly explain the situation of the case. He also asked the Ministry of Public Security and the special police department to assist in arresting the suspect. The senior leader attached great importance to this case and agreed immediately.
"These people are completely devoid of conscience. They actually resorted to such cruelty to women. If they are not apprehended, I'm afraid there will be countless more women who have been persecuted by them. Therefore, none of these people can be spared. They must all be brought back." The leader said, "I'll tell the Ministry of Public Security and the Special Police Department later and ask them to cooperate with your arrest. When you are free, please come over. Also, I heard that one of your junior senior apprentices has also joined our Ninth Division? Next time you come, ask her to come with you."
Taoist Priest Qinghui first thanked the senior leader and then said to Jiang Chunian, "My junior uncle is quite free-spirited and doesn't like to be constrained. Plus, she's been busy lately, and I don't know when she'll be able to find time. I'll tell her later that if she happens to be free, she can come with me. If she really can't, we can wait until next time, okay?"
The big boss, even the strange tempers of these eccentric people, were not angry. He laughed out loud when he heard this: "Okay, I'm just curious, so I want to meet her. If she is really not free, then forget it."
Taoist Qinghui hung up the phone, and Jiang Chunian turned to look at him: "Why are you talking about me?"
Taoist Qinghui said, "The big boss heard about you from somewhere and wants to meet you. If you are willing, I will take you to meet him someday. If you don't want to meet him, I will help you decline."
Jiang Chunian was amused: "So our big boss is quite easy to talk to. He can meet me when he wants to, and not meet me when he doesn't want to, and he doesn't get angry?"
"If it were anyone else, they wouldn't have received such treatment, but you, Junior Master," Taoist Qinghui said. "Last night, the small western-style building collapsed, and the story of your battle with Judge Cui spread throughout the Ninth Department and the Ministry of Public Security, naturally reaching the ears of the higher-ups. We, the Xuan Sect, abolished feudal superstitions for the sake of national development, and for many years, we've prohibited the promotion of feudal superstitions. Although we established the Ninth Department, it's not visible to the public, which has been detrimental to the development of the entire Xuan Sect and led to its decline in recent years. It can be said that we suffered a great loss. Fortunately, the Xuan Sect's heritage has been preserved. Furthermore, although we can't be seen in public, the national leaders still rely heavily on us and treat us with great courtesy. Therefore, even though Junior Master has such abilities, the higher-ups won't treat you as a mere subordinate."
Jiang Chunian nodded: "That's about right."
Taoist Qinghui continued, "But generally speaking, a senior leader wouldn't ask to meet with you. I'm afraid he has something to discuss with you. If you can spare the time, you should go."
Jiang Chunian: "Okay, if it's not urgent, let's wait until I'm done with this."
