Chapter 28 Putting the Facts Away
The two of them whispered to each other.

Tang Hao: What’s going on?
Yuan Tong: I don’t know!

Tang Hao: It’s not you who’s causing trouble again, is it?

Yuan Tong: I didn’t, it wasn’t me, don’t talk nonsense!
Tang Hao: Then why did he become hostile after you told him your name?

Yuan Tong: I also signed you up, why didn’t you say it was you who provoked me?

Tang Hao: This guy is an inner sect disciple. How can I, a mere servant, provoke him?
Yuan Tong: I’ve only been here for half a month and haven’t even met him.

What was going on? They both fell silent, confused.

But they reached a consensus on one point, that is, without knowing the inside and outside of the matter, they must not be taken away by the other party under any circumstances. Who knows what his plan is, what if it is a follow-up plan of the person who attacked him earlier?

Yuan Tong's mind raced. Tang Hao didn't know the rules of the Immortal City, but he understood them very well. He immediately had an idea in his mind. Even if it didn't work, at least he could delay for some time until the helpers Tang Hao called for arrived, and then see if there was any room for mediation.

They discussed it through voice transmission.

Then Tang Hao suddenly stepped forward and spoke.

"Senior Brother, please listen to me..."

Ignoring the other party's "no need to say more" interruption, Tang Hao pointed at the puppets on the ground and said, "These are not living people, they are all puppets. Have you heard of Jade-faced Shura?"

The leading monk felt extremely ashamed and annoyed by Tang Hao's disregard. He made a hand seal and was about to teach him a lesson, but when he heard the name of Jade-faced Shura, he immediately extinguished the spiritual light that was about to be stimulated.

"Jade-faced Shura?" The leading monk looked quite good, but unfortunately his eyes were cold, and coupled with his big hooked nose, he looked extremely sinister.

Is the name of Jade-faced Shura really that useful? Seeing that the sinister monk had finally stopped trying to capture them, Tang Hao breathed a sigh of relief and gestured to Yuan Tong, "You speak."

Yuan Tong nodded at him, then turned to the group of law enforcement monks and said, "To be honest, I've said before that I'm from Quelou. I came to Qingmu Immortal City from Fengming Palace over half a month ago to take up my post."

The leading cultivator looked up at Yuan Tong and said indifferently, "You've already announced your identity just now. Are you trying to use Fengming Palace to pressure me by bringing it up again? Since you've come to my sect to do business, you must abide by our rules."

"Of course, fellow Taoist, don't worry, just listen to what I have to say." Yuan Tong first smiled and bowed his head to show his agreement, but then his expression turned to anger.

"But who would have thought that we would encounter disciples of the evil Hehuan Sect kidnapping people on the road. As cultivators of the righteous path and orthodox sects, how could we sit idly by?" Yuan Tong swept his eyes over the law enforcement cultivators and saw that most of them nodded. Although the leader narrowed his eyes slightly, he said nothing more and waited for the next step.

Seeing this, Yuan Tong continued, "So, I attacked together with my fellow disciples. Unfortunately, one of the Foundation Establishment cultivators escaped. I think this attack must be revenge from the Hehuan Sect."

"None of our five major sects, no matter which one, would be attacked by the demon monks in the immortal city, but instead detained by our fellow monks, right?" Yuan Tong laid the groundwork for a long time and finally said this key sentence.

"Of course we can't do that."

"Yes, in this case, according to the rules, we just need to ask the reason and verify the identity."

"Indeed."

Upon hearing this, many law enforcement monks spoke up and confirmed Yuan Tong's statement.

Seeing this, Tang Hao and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The leading monk also nodded and said, "Then let's first verify whether these are Jade-faced Shuras."

As he spoke, he waved to someone in the team, and that person immediately stepped out of the crowd and went straight to where the puppet was lying.

Tang Hao and Yuan Tong looked at each other and stepped aside. Then they saw the man take out a magical tool that looked like a compass and began to fiddle with it to verify it.

As they observed, they whispered to each other again.

Tang Hao: Bro, are you sure it’s Jade-faced Shura?
Yuan Tong: There are many types of puppetry, and we have no means to verify them, but I just happened to offend the Hehuan Sect, and the characteristics of these puppets match those of the Jade-faced Shura, so they should be pretty much the same.

Tang Hao: That’s good, but I always feel that things won’t be so easy.

Yuan Tong: We'll just have to wait and see. If that doesn't work, try to delay. Speaking of which, brother, the person you're calling is from your clan, right? Do you think he has a say?

Tang Hao: It should be possible.

Delaying time?

If things continue to change, this is the only way. But according to the time, the person should have arrived a long time ago. Tang Hao was a little unsure of the situation.

After a moment, the results came back. The man nodded to the two of them, returned to the law enforcement monks, and reported, "Senior Brother Beishan, there's no doubt it's the Jade-faced Shura."

Tang Hao and Yuan Tong couldn't help but smile.

"Oh, really? Then, how strong are these puppets?" Beishan nodded calmly and asked.

"One is at the ninth level of Qi Refining, and the other four are at the eighth level." Beishan's lips suddenly curled up into a barely perceptible smile: "I understand."

Seeing this, Yuan Tong quickly asked, "Now that everything is clear, can we leave now?"

"Okay." Beishan nodded. Yuan Tong just smiled when he heard him continue, "You can go now, but he has to stay."

Tang Hao's pupils suddenly trembled. Damn it, he is actually coming for me.

On the surface, he calmly asked, "I wonder what Senior Brother Beishan wants me to do?"

"Tell me! What is your intention in sneaking into my Qinghua Sect?" Beishan's eyes, which had been narrowed, suddenly widened and his gaze fixed on Tang Hao.

Can a piece of shit have privacy? Tang Hao was stunned. Bro, what are you talking about?
Not to mention him, Yuan Tong and a group of law enforcement disciples were also stunned. They did not expect such a turn of events to happen.

How come after the truth was revealed, the real perpetrators from other sects were able to leave, but the disciples from our own sect who were implicated were...

Some people with quick minds looked between the two, secretly wondering where this menial disciple came from and how he had offended Senior Brother Beishan.

"However, it's fine to settle a personal grudge, but if there's no justifiable reason, it might be difficult to fool the Law Enforcement Hall afterwards."

This thought came to the minds of many law enforcement disciples. The photo-recording magic in their collar lapels was turned on. Some of them were lazy and did not turn it on, and even quietly activated the spell at this moment.

"You said I was a spy? How can you smear someone's innocence out of thin air?" Tang Hao pointed at his nose with an absurd look on his face.

As a result, he saw a strong sense of mockery in the other party's eyes, and he immediately became angry, and his words were no longer polite: "Are you kidding me? How many dishes are there? You drank so much, I...well..."

Tang Hao felt as if someone had covered his mouth with a pair of smelly socks that had not been washed for several months. A feeling of suffocation and an indescribable feeling of nausea came over him at the same time.

Foundation Establishment Monk! This guy is actually a Foundation Establishment Monk!

I'm all too familiar with the feeling of suffocation. But where does this stinky sock smell come from? Ugh!

Yuan Tong's face changed. If he was taken away for this reason, even if it was finally found out that the facts were not true, after a series of interrogations, Tang Hao would probably be skinned alive if not killed.

So, he quickly chimed in, "Fellow Daoist Beishan, you must be mistaken..."

"The matter of Yuan Li is my [Qinghua Sect]'s business. Could it be that you [Fengming Palace] still want to interfere in my sect's affairs?"

Beishan's sharp gaze fell on Yuan Tong. The pressure from the foundation-building cultivator immediately made him look uncomfortable, and he was speechless for a while.

Fortunately, since he was a disciple of Youzong after all, Beishan did not go too far. He immediately retracted his aura and let Yuan Tong breathe deeply.

He said, "However, considering that you are the person involved and the one being deceived, I will be kind enough to talk to you."

"The one who is deceived? What do you mean?" Yuan Tong, who stuttered again, asked while stroking his chest.

Beishan snorted and sneered, "This person is probably putting on this act to gain your trust. It's ridiculous that you can't see through such a clumsy performance?"

Yuan Tong was stunned, completely unable to understand the other party's train of thought. He waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Absolutely impossible, Beishan..."

Once again, the momentum was released and then subsided, and Yuan Tong was speechless again. He hated it to death in his heart, but the situation was stronger than the person, and he understood that this was probably a revenge for Tang Hao's previous ignoring of the other party and talking to himself.

"You two were attacked at the same time, facing five cultivators in the late Qi Refining stage. Look at your miserable state, fellow Daoist. And then look at him, haha, he's only at the second level of Qi Refining, yet he's completely unscathed. If you say he's fine, who would believe you?"

Oh my god! Don’t tell me, don’t tell me.

Putting aside the facts, just based on Beishan's analysis, not to mention that the law enforcement disciples nodded secretly, even Tang Hao himself felt that there was no problem with this logic. What a talent!

Yuan Tong wanted to explain what had happened in detail, but noticing the look in Beishan's eyes, he knew that if he opened his mouth, he would not be able to utter a single word. He couldn't help but feel anxious, as this man was determined to take Tang Hao away.

Seeing Yuan Tong's understanding, Beishan rubbed his chin with satisfaction and said proudly, "When all impossible factors are eliminated, no matter how improbable the remaining factors are, they must be the truth!"

Seeing him pretending to be cool, Tang Hao's face turned purple, and he screamed silently: "Stop pretending to be cool, Holmes, let me go, I can't breathe!"

At the same time, I cried out in my heart: "Sister, if you don't come, I will die here!"

It seemed as if he really heard Tang Hao's call, and the thought had just come to his mind.

A delicate shout came from far away: "Beishan Ming, let him go!"

The next moment, a white figure as graceful as a startled swan appeared in an instant.
