Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 1183: Chapter 707 Destiny

In the eyes of the Sword Cultivator in the blue Taoist Robe, a deep fear flashed.

Mr. Jin’s expression was even graver.

Qianxue State Boundary, Third Grade Supervisor of the Daoist Court… Gu Changhuai.

Early stages Golden Core Cultivator.

Outside the tavern, Gu Changhuai stood tall and proud, and even in rough clothing, his extraordinary demeanor was hard to conceal.

Splendid Wind Blades encircled him.

The robust essence of his Golden Core cultivation, unrestrained, emitted a faint oppressive force.

Mr. Jin frowned, pondering momentarily before his gaze turned sharp, his voice carrying anger:

“Gu Changhuai…”

“Did you orchestrate all of this from the shadows?”

Gu Changhuai was composed, yet slightly surprised inwardly.

He wasn’t quite sure which setup he was referring to.

Always aloof, he couldn’t be bothered to explain, especially to such degenerate noble family’s sons, whom he deemed unworthy.

Gu Changhuai simply said:

“Will you surrender willingly, or should I disable you, bind you with Spiritual Locks, and throw you into the Daoist Prison?”

Mr. Jin smirked sinisterly, unfazed, “Supervisor Gu, on what grounds are you arresting us?”

“You said it yourself,” Gu Changhuai replied with a cold expression, “trafficking cultivators, harming lives, crafting Human Pills—any one of these is enough to throw you into the Daoist Prison to face severe torture.”

Mr. Jin smiled slightly, “I was just blustering to scare that kid… With no proof, Supervisor Gu, you wouldn’t wrongly accuse a good person, right?”

Gu Changhuai’s lips curled with a hint of sarcasm, “Worse than a beast, not even worthy of being human, yet you claim to be a ‘good person’?”

Mr. Jin’s face changed immediately, “Supervisor Gu, I urge you to watch your language!”

Gu Changhuai pointed to Mr. Jin’s storage bag, “Don’t think I don’t know, the Human Pill is still on you. Now that we have both the thief and the goods, how will you defend yourself?”

“Human Pill?” Mr. Jin casually tossed the storage bag with a confused expression, “Supervisor Gu, what are you talking about? Where is the Human Pill? I didn’t see it.”

Gu Changhuai’s gaze slightly hardened.

Mr. Jin pointed to the storage bag on the ground presumably containing the Human Pill and said with a smile:

“Supervisor Gu, you’re not saying this contains Human Pills, are you? How is that possible?”

“Moreover, even if it does contain what you call ‘Human Pills,’ I know nothing about it…”

Mr. Jin, pointing at Crossing River Dragon with a sneer, said:

“This Fish Cultivator told me he had superb Pills for sale, so I came specifically to check. Who knew his bag would contain all sorts of Pills; what are these Pills really?”

Crossing River Dragon turned pale.

“This matter is unrelated to me…” Mr. Jin smiled lightly, then added:

“Perhaps this commoner, following someone else’s instigation, tried to frame me…”

“You’re right, aren’t you,” Mr. Jin said to Gu Changhuai with a mock smile, slowly continuing: “…Supervisor Gu.”

Gu Changhuai was unbothered, only nodding slowly, casually saying:

“You make some sense. Let’s head to the Daoist Court together, I will clarify things, and then release you.”

Mr. Jin said: “This matter is unrelated to me.”

“Related or unrelated, let’s discuss it at the Daoist Court…”

“These Pills aren’t mine…”

“You’ve touched them, after all, let’s discuss the karmic consequences at the Daoist Court.” Gu Changhuai said lightly.

“Supervisor Gu, I already told you, I was just spouting nonsense…”

“But since you said it, it must be verified, let’s head to the Daoist Court to discuss…”

Gu Changhuai was unyielding.

No matter how Mr. Jin tried to argue, his response was always “Let’s go to the Daoist Court to discuss,” looking nothing less than officious.

Mr. Jin stopped talking.

His expression turned ugly.

To discuss at the Daoist Court, to discuss at the Daoist Court is crap!

Once in the Daoist Court, one’s fate is out of one’s hands, even if not killed, being punished would skin one alive.

Moreover, the high-grade Daoist Court has the “Karmic Retribution Statutes.”

Some words, once spoken, are acknowledged, some deeds, once done, cannot be denied.

One can argue outside, but inside the Daoist Court, arguing is futile.

Mr. Jin inwardly cursed.

This Gu Changhuai, truly despicable! He never cared about what you said, nor quibbled, just solely focused on getting you into the Daoist Court.

Then he would treat you like fish on the chopping block, completely at his mercy.

The Sword Cultivator in the blue Taoist Robe sternly said: “Supervisor Gu, considering Mr. Jin’s prestigious status, is sending him to the Daoist Court appropriate?”

Gu Changhuai glanced at him, “No worries, you’re coming too.”

The Sword Cultivator in the blue Taoist Robe was taken aback.

Gu Changhuai, expressionless, continued: “Xie Liu, Gui Water Sect’s Inner Gate Instructor, today in my presence, you attempted to kill a Gu family cultivator, Execution Leader from Taixu Gate… ”

Gu Changhuai glanced at Mo Hua, “…a powerless little disciple.”

“You will also accompany me back to the Daoist Court to clarify this matter.”

Mo Hua felt somewhat unhappy.

The Sword Cultivator dressed in the blue Taoist Robe, also the Gui Water Sect’s Inner Gate Instructor Xie Liu, hearing this, his expression turned icy cold, his eyes brimming with a cold light.

Gu Changhuai and he locked eyes, his expression still faintly indifferent.

Xie Liu managed a smile, but it was only a surface smile, “Supervisor Gu, to think you even know me…”

Gu Changhuai with a semblance of a smile, “If I didn’t know you, how could I call you a ‘scourge’?”

Xie Liu’s face twitched, his expression turned fierce, but he felt a chill inside.

Knowing…

That means he was targeted.

When exactly did it happen?

Mr. Jin also sensed something was amiss and covertly gave Xie Liu a look.

Understanding the hint, Xie Liu then said to Gu Changhuai with a smile:

“Supervisor Gu, isn’t it said, ‘Want to charge someone, why lack excuses?ʼ”

Gu Changhuai calmly responded: “Oh? Are you suggesting I am fabricating charges out of nothing? You do realize, that’s slandering a Dao Court Official, and that’s an added crime.”
