Amber stood in the center of the hall. Wan Jiao walked to his side, politely called out "Director An", and then said to Xiao Lejin beside her, "Little guy, show everyone what you showed me last time."
Xiao Lejin nodded, "Okay."
Ma Geng committed murder, conspired with others to desecrate and dismember corpses, and then hired evil cultivators to seal the souls of the victims in dry wells to prevent them from reincarnating. Each and every one of these crimes is unforgivable.
After reading the report, Cui Lao immediately slammed his fist on the table and announced the verdict for Ma Geng: death penalty, to be carried out immediately.
Afterwards, Wan Jiao produced evidence of Jiang Luo and Duan Bingna's crimes, and Elder Cui quickly handed down a verdict, the same as Ma Geng's.
And that was the end of it.
As they left the courtroom, Xiao Lejin, her eyes red, asked Wan Jiao, "Master, they've harmed so many people, isn't it too easy for them to just die like this?"
Wan Jiao lowered her eyes slightly and replied in a cold tone, "Death is only the beginning of atonement; the tortures of the eighteen levels of hell await them."
Xiao Lejin nodded as if she understood, "If my sister knew this in the afterlife, she would be happy."
Wan Jiao affectionately patted Xiao Lejin's hair, "Come on, I'll take you home."
When Old Cui chased after them, Wan Jiao and Xiao Le Jin had already disappeared. He stroked his beard, looking into the distance with a complicated expression, lost in thought.
After dealing with the relevant matters, Amber came out and saw Elder Cui. She couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Senior, what are you doing here?"
Old Cui glanced at An Bo and answered irrelevantly, "Little An, is that girl one of your subordinates?"
Amber nodded respectfully, "Yes, senior."
"What level of mystic mage is she?"
Remembering Qi Mingyu's report, Amber respectfully said, "Senior, she is a level nine Xuan Master, and should have just been promoted."
"Just promoted?" Old Cui glanced at Amber meaningfully, thinking to himself: Doesn't look like it.
Amber said, "Senior, she said it herself, so it can't be false."
Amber's inner thoughts: So what if she just got promoted? Wan Jiao is only twenty years old. She's already promoted to level nine at twenty. That's simply unbelievable!

Wan Jiao returned to the villa with Xiao Lejin. The butler rushed forward as if facing a formidable enemy, "Young Madam, you're back? And this is..."
Wan Jiao glanced at Xiao Lejin and was about to speak when Xiao Lejin spoke first, "Hello Grandma, my name is Lejin, and she is my aunt."
Little Lejin is very cute. She calls the housekeeper "Grandma" so sweetly and smiles at her so charmingly. She is so lovable.
The butler immediately chimed in with a smile, "Young Madam, so she's your niece! She's quite the beauty. With the young master away, Miss Jin's presence is a good way to keep you company."
Wan Jiao smiled without saying a word.
Xiao Lejin tugged at Wan Jiao's hand, blinking her big, dark, and beautiful eyes, "Auntie, let's go back to our room."
"..." Wan Jiao: Is this really a spirit? Or is it a little fairy?
As soon as she entered the room, Xiao Lejin looked at Wan Jiao very seriously and said pitifully, "Master, I don't want to go back to that dark and stuffy place. I want to stay by your side forever."
The dark and stuffy place refers to the suona (a traditional Chinese wind instrument), which Wan Jiao understands.
She really wanted to refuse, but looking at the little girl's innocent eyes, she couldn't bring herself to say no.
So Wan Jiao gave a muffled "hmm," and said, "You can stay by my side, but you're not allowed to cause trouble. I have a bad temper, and if you piss me off, I'll seal you inside."
Little Lejin raised her three short fingers and swore, "Lejin will definitely obey her master and never cause trouble."
Wan Jiao has never had a pet or any friends to play with since she was a child. From now on, having a little spirit to accompany her as she travels through this mortal world seems pretty good, doesn't it?
"Since you're already calling her my niece, you can call me aunt from now on."
When Xiao Lejin heard Wan Jiao say that, her beautiful eyes lit up. "Is it okay?"
Wan Jiao nodded.
Little Lejin excitedly rushed into Wanjiao's arms, "Auntie, Lejin will definitely be a good girl."
Before my sister passed away, she said that she was different from ordinary artifact spirits. She was not born as an artifact spirit, but was first a soul and then a spirit.
My sister also said that she will definitely find her family in the future...
