I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 1373: Chapter 743 Call Me “Daddy” (7K) Chapter 1373: Chapter 743 Call Me “Daddy” (7K) Shi Xiao Hei didn’t even know where she had ended up.

She only felt a sudden burst of radiant light in front of her, followed by a force full of elasticity that began pushing against her, preventing her from moving forward.

[Is this a private territory?]

She stopped somewhat unexpectedly, recognizing the feeling of having entered a domain with a Restriction Array.

She hesitated for a moment, about to retreat.

Suddenly, two Spiritual Lights appeared out of nowhere, and then two cultivators in military uniform stepped out from within the formation, expressionless as they floated towards her.

Shi Xiao Hei felt an unprecedented serious and murderous aura approaching her, causing her brows to furrow slightly. She realized she might have unintentionally entered a military base. Suppressing the urge to unleash the Tai Yi Wu Yan Luo, she surrendered immediately.

In the Immortal Gate, all cultivators knew that while you could question Law Enforcement Cultivators or even curse officials on the streets, when encountering cultivators from the Military Department, it was best to do exactly as they said.

Shi Xiao Hei was then confined by two Military Department Foundation Establishment Practitioners with a Restriction that sealed her Spiritual Power. She clearly knew, with her background, as long as she stayed composed and explained the misunderstanding, she should be able to leave this place.

“I am a clerical worker from Yu Wood City’s Forestry Bureau…”

Thus, she immediately revealed her identity, letting the Military Department know she was part of the system. Even if they decided to handle her, they would need to inform the Immortal Gate officials of Yu Wood City.

In doing so, her message could possibly get out.

Her hope didn’t lie with the officials of Yu Wood City, but with Wangxian Peak; however, to stay low-key, she had not listed this in her records and Yu Wood City also had no direct channel of communication with Wangxian Peak.

Shi Xiao Hei thought that the Immortal Gate officials of Yu Wood City would likely inform her mother, and Shi Wanyu had the contact of Yu Huiping.

But after waiting for two days, she realized the Military Department personnel only interrogated her for some basic information and made no further moves.

If it weren’t for the female officer who came daily to bring food and clothes, she would have thought she had been forgotten.

At this point, having never experienced such events, Shi Xiao Hei was quite frightened internally.

She was scared that she might be confined here for life.

Why was there a territory of the Military Department within Yu Wood City?

Shi Xiao Hei also requested the Military Department cultivators interrogating her to let her send a message of safety to her family, but they refused using military confidentiality as their reason.

She also asked how long she would be held, and the answer she received was that they were waiting for instructions from above.

Shi Xiao Hei then questioned who “above” referred to?

But she received no answer.

By the fifth day, Shi Xiao Hei started to worry; having not returned for so long, Shi Wanyu might be going frantic with worry.

She also started resenting the inefficiency of the Yu Wood City officials. Being a new clerical worker who hadn’t shown up as agreed, didn’t they think to investigate?

The inefficiency was so significant that once she got out, she definitely needed to have Uncle Chen give them a thorough scolding.

While Shi Xiao Hei thought this through, in the top-floor office of the building where she was detained, Chen Mobai was sitting on a sofa, facing a middle-aged man in a military uniform who just poured freshly brewed tea into his cup.

“Councilman Chen, according to the rules, if we cannot prove the suspect’s guilt with solid evidence after seven days, we must release them,”

The middle-aged man, named Miao Wanliang, reminded Chen Mobai with a wry smile.

This prison was established by the Hall of Orthodox Law to hold criminals, where Qing Nu’s former master Gu Changfeng had been imprisoned.

Though the prison was within the boundaries of Yu Wood City, it was indeed beyond the local officials’ jurisdiction, directly managed by the Military Department cultivators dispatched by the Hall of Orthodox Law.

However, facing Chen Mobai, a Golden Core Master with deep connections, Miao Wanliang had to show respect.

After all, according to reliable information, this man with the Qualification of Deification had been personally recruited by the Righteous Law Hall Master, and just joining the Hall as an official could probably start at least at the rank of Major General!

Therefore, Chen Mobai asking him to handle some matters without breaking any rules, he was naturally willing.

With this favor, perhaps it could be of great use when opening battles in the future.

Chen Mobai had initially thought to intervene when he saw Shi Xiao Hei walking this way, but suddenly it occurred to him that his daughter, currently in a state of emotional instability, might benefit from a few days here to calm down.

After she calmed down, he could then step in to extract her and earn some impression points.

“Hmm, the timing is about right; please assist me in staging this, Camp Commander Miao.”

Chen Mobai calculated that five days should be enough to calm his daughter, nodded his head, and finished the cup of tea on the table.

This was also tea he had brought himself, considered Rank-2 Superior Quality, available on this side of the Immortal Gate.

He had originally obtained all the varieties of tea collected by Wen Ren Xuewei and had Zhuo Ming plant them in the Xiao Nanshan tea garden to cultivate. Planning to utilize the abundant resources of the Tianhe Realm for growth, he intended to eventually incorporate Enlightenment Tea.

Among these was the Rank-2 Spiritual Tea, which he personally didn’t regard highly due to its lower grade, but it was considered a premium gift in the Immortal Gate.

The Foundation Establishment Practitioners here felt luxurious even drinking Rank-1 Superior Quality Spiritual Tea.

Chen Mobai having Miao Wanliang help, directly gifted a whole kilogram, making him somewhat hesitant to accept because it was indeed too much.
