Chapter 663 Ambush

"It's this person." Peacock nodded with a strange expression.

The efficiency of the government took her a long time to react.

"That's right." The leading constable breathed a sigh of relief.

If you spend the whole day trying to catch the wrong person, that would be really fun.

But even if they arrested the wrong person, the one they arrested is not a good person either.

According to the evidence currently available, the man arrested is a serious criminal with numerous crimes, and everyone who participated in this operation can be credited with a great achievement.

"According to the regulations, Miss Peacock needs to make a statement of identification. Can you go with us to the government office?"

Peacock nodded. This was her obligation according to the law.

"Can they go with me?" Peacock pointed at Lu Yang and his two friends and his sister Fuling. She was a little nervous about going to the yamen alone.

"Of course they can, but they can't stand by and watch while the statement is being taken." The leading constable could understand Peacock's concerns, it was human nature.

While they were talking, two more detectives came upstairs.

"Who is Miss Fuling? Hey, Brother Li, you are here too? Didn't you go to arrest someone?" The two constables who came later were stunned when they saw the leading constable.

Brother Li was the leading constable. He said casually, "After arresting the person, we are going to check with the victim. What are you doing here, Xiao Wu?"

"Oh, we just finished interrogating the suspect. According to the suspect, she tried to hire a local gangster named Hong to assassinate a girl named Fuling. We came over to check it out."

"Who is Miss Fuling?"

"I, I'm Fuling." Fuling sat up from the bed and stood with her sister Peacock.

But who wants to kill her? Brother Li: "..."

Xiao Wu: “…”

The killer has taken a fancy to you two sisters and is following you two.

"Will the two girls come with us?"

The two sisters nodded.

"Miss Kongque, you are also lucky. The killer you encountered last night was a Qi training killer. According to the killer who was captured, there are killers in the foundation building stage, the golden elixir stage, and the Yuanying stage above him. If he fails in his mission, there will be stronger killers coming to kill you later."

"Although it was our poor management that allowed the assassin to sneak into the hostel last night, don't worry, young lady. Now that we know the clues, there will definitely not be a second assassination incident."

If the killer had not confessed everything last night, the government would not have dispatched three Spiritualization Stage cultivators and fifteen Nascent Soul Stage cultivators.

As for whether higher-level cultivators were sent secretly, Brother Li didn't know.

The five people came to the yamen again, just like last night.

The officers in charge of guarding the gate were surprised. They were on night shift and they had seen this group of people for two consecutive nights.

"I want to ask about the origin of the donor who threatened Miss Peacock?"

"I'm sorry, Master. We have a rule that outsiders are not allowed to inquire about the case."

Shi Chan nodded to show his understanding.

The imperial court was very professional in this regard.

The five major immortal sects do have the power to enforce the law, but they cannot use it at will based on personal curiosity, which goes against the original intention of establishing the power to enforce the law.

Last night, the three people were recorded as witnesses. They confessed that they were ordinary cultivators and used pseudonyms. They did not say that they were from the immortal sect. The government will not investigate the identity information of the witnesses in detail.

According to Shi Chan's experience, if you say you are a cultivator from one of the five major sects, then the city lord will definitely be alarmed. The city lord will warmly entertain you and then ask you when you are leaving in a roundabout way...

After all, the Immortal Sect still has the right to supervise. If they were to make a comment, all this year's work would be in vain.

The two sisters were taken away by two groups of detectives to take statements, and the other three stayed in the case handling area, waiting for the results.

"Fairy, can you help me listen to the interrogation?" Lu Yang couldn't help but say.

At this time, the Immortal Fairy was painting on the wall of the Main Hall, holding a brush, with a pile of buckets full of paint under her feet, and her face was covered with colorful paints.

As for what the painting was about, it was too abstract and Lu Yang couldn't figure it out for the time being.

"Okay." The immortal fairy threw the brush into the bucket, wiped her face with the back of her hand to make it more flowery, and shared her immortal consciousness with Lu Yang to explore the interrogation process of the arrested man.

The interrogation room has a special formation that is designed to block the detection of spiritual consciousness, but it obviously cannot block the immortal consciousness.

…

In the interrogation room shrouded by layers of formations, two experienced detectives were staring at the man they had just captured with serious faces.

The man had a handsome face and an evil expression. His hands were locked with soul-binding chains, and he was unable to use his spiritual power.

The two experienced detectives were under great pressure as the other party was suspected of having a mental illness and his way of thinking was different from that of ordinary people. They were not sure whether he was pretending or was really ill.

"Name?"

The handsome man smiled nonchalantly and fiddled with his nails out of habit, but unfortunately he was locked with the Soul Binding Lock and could not fiddle with them.

"Heh, this is the first time someone has dared to ask me my name so bluntly. It's okay to tell you, my name is Night Owl."

"age?"

"One thousand six hundred years old."

Bang! The constable slammed the table angrily, pointed at the other party and shouted: "I advise you to tell the truth, don't play dumb!"

Night Owl's eyes were gloomy. "If I were you, I wouldn't raise my hand. They are just two low-level cultivators who dare to point fingers at me. Call the fusion stage cultivators who are qualified to talk to me."

Another experienced constable seemed to have thought of something, and pulled his companion aside, asking suspiciously, "Are you from the ancient fusion stage who has dispersed his energy and is now practicing again?"

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

"I still have some vision."

It was no surprise that the two detectives suddenly realized what was going on.

"Specific identity?"

"You don't even know my identity, yet you still dare to arrest me. You are so brave!"

"I am the master of the Black Night Pavilion, Night Owl. Even if the Emperor of Dayu sees me, he must treat me with courtesy!"

The two detectives recalled some ancient knowledge and it seemed that there was such an organization in ancient times, a killer organization, which was established in the 60,000th year of the Dayu calendar, which is 140,000 years ago.

"Then why did you continue to form a killer organization after you dispersed your power and started over?"

Judging from the arrests, this man called Night Owl has formed a new killer organization and is a domineering person.

"You are just two insects, yet you dare to ask about my plan. It's okay for me to tell you."

"In a great struggle, human power is limited. Fighting for resources alone is ultimately no match for a large force. That is why I have reorganized the Black Night Pavilion."

"Do you know what the strongest cultivator is? It's not the sword cultivator who can break everything with one sword, nor the physical cultivator with unparalleled physique. That's just a head-on battle. In a fight between cultivators, all means are used. Assassination is the best way to fight, so the killer is the strongest cultivator."

As he spoke, Night Owl slowly stood up and said, "The Black Night Pavilion has returned to the human world, and you are all sacrifices!"

"As for the woman who aroused my interest, her name is Peacock, right? She can't escape from my grasp!"

"I said that she must either submit to me or die."

"The one who disobeys me has never been born yet!"

The constable slammed the table angrily: "Be quiet and sit down!"

As if he hadn't heard anything, Night Owl continued to talk to himself, "I will disperse my energy and start cultivating again. There will be people to protect me."

The two detectives' faces changed as they realized something.

There are also accomplices they haven’t caught, and their cultivation is not low!

A terrifying pressure enveloped the City Lord's Mansion, and it turned out to be a cultivator in the fusion stage!

In the dark night, the fusion stage cultivator stretched out his big hand, crushed the layers of formations in the interrogation room, lifted the roof, and said respectfully: "Pavilion Master, I am late."

"Too slow, go back and receive your punishment!"

The deputy pavilion master was trained by Ye Xiao since childhood, and was branded with the mark of master and servant. Even if he had to disperse his power and start over, because the difference in their cultivation levels was huge, the deputy pavilion master had to obey Ye Xiao's orders.

Suddenly, three more auras of the Fusion Stage rose into the sky and locked onto the Deputy Pavilion Master. Each of these three auras was stronger than the Deputy Pavilion Master! "Lord Governor has foresight. There really is someone behind us."

"Stop talking nonsense, catch the man quickly and go back to rest."

“It’s a big fish.”

The deputy pavilion master's eyes were about to burst with anger: "A running dog of the imperial court!"

We've fallen into a trap. The imperial court has set up an ambush! The deputy pavilion master turned around and tried to run, but the three fusion-stage masters would never give him the chance. They attacked at the same time and captured the deputy pavilion master.

The two detectives breathed a sigh of relief and pressed Night Owl onto a chair: “Behave yourself!”

"I'll tell you everything."

The second update will be at 11 o'clock
