I, Tianlaozhen Wangu, support the Empress from behind!

"A better way?"

Chu He and the other man looked at Ye Yixiao curiously.

"Haha..." Ye Yixiao smiled mysteriously, "I'll keep this a secret for now, you two will know when the time comes."

They both smiled.

"Well, for now, you can just pretend you don't know about this matter, and there's no need to make any other arrangements."

"Later, I will notify you, the prison warden, at three quarters past midnight tonight."

"All of us, the jailers from the first to the fourth floors of the inner prison, are gathering at the martial arts arena for a 'ghost-catching competition.'"

"Then we'll know who the traitor is!"

What else could Chu He and the others do? They could only bow and say, "Your Excellency, your opinion is excellent!"

"hehe…"

Time flies by.

Although there is no sunlight in the inner prison, the stars in the dome will appear in different brightness as the sunlight outside changes.

Soon it was the hour of Xu.

"Hey, Brother Lei, do you know what's going on? How come Lord Yuzheng asked us to come here out of the blue?"

"I just heard from the brothers on the first floor that a very important prisoner has died. The prison warden has invited a third-rank master of literature to come and interrogate us!"

"real or fake?"

"..."

Hundreds of people gathered in the martial arts arena, and it didn't seem crowded, but the various discussions made the scene extremely noisy.

"Does Wen Dao ask about one's heart?"

Chu He frowned slightly when he heard this.

He had seen similar records in ancient books before. This was a magical power possessed by those who practiced the Way of Literature.

Only by breaking through to the third level, the realm of the master of literature and Taoism, can it be achieved.

Moreover, throughout Daqian, there are tens of thousands of students, but the number of those who can truly enter the realm of literature can be counted on the palm of one hand.

"There are at least several hundred people in the martial arts arena right now. Can the great scholar invited by Lord Yuzheng hold up?"

Chu He was also a little confused about what this Lord Prison Chief was up to.

"quiet!"

Suddenly, a light shout was heard from above the martial arts arena.

The noisy discussions below were immediately suppressed.

Everyone couldn't help but look up.

Suddenly, several men appeared in the air, two of whom were familiar to everyone.

They are Sikong Sheng and Ye Yixiao, the elders of the Demon Refining Department who are in charge of the Inner Prison and are elusive.

There was only one person left. He was wearing a Confucian robe, with handsome eyebrows and eyes, and the elegant temperament of a scholar.

"Elder Sikong, Brother Ye, let's start as planned!"

The elegant man nodded at the two of them.

Then the three of them landed on the martial arts stage.

Ye Yixiao took a step forward, cleared his throat, and said in a loud voice, "I'm sure you're all curious why I invited you all here."

Everyone in the audience, except for a few who knew the inside story, nodded.

"Haha, of course, this is not important..."

"The important thing is, there's a thief inside our inner prison, and there might be more than one!"

Ye Yixiao's cold tone swept the entire audience in an instant.

The crowd who were just surprised suddenly felt a chill in their hearts, their expressions changed drastically, and they immediately became serious.

"Do you want to alert the enemy?"

Chu He muttered to himself.

"So, this time, I invited the Jixia Academy's chief academician, Mr. Dongfang Zishan, to come over."

"As long as you can survive a moment under the Master's true words, you'll pass, proving you're not a thief!"

"But I can tell you that Mr. Dongfang is a third-grade Grandmaster, and is about to enter the realm of a second-grade Transcendent Saint..."

“Using the mantra is as easy as drinking water.”

"I advise you not to rely on luck."

"You're not going to make it, thief!"

So much for that.

Ye Yixiao's eyes were filled with coldness, and he swept across the entire audience fiercely.

Everyone in the field was secretly shocked when they heard this.

Several people even lowered their heads slightly, not daring to look him in the eye.

Only Chu He felt that Ye Yu was exaggerating after hearing this.

After Ye Yixiao finished speaking.

He winked at the elegant man behind him.

Mr. Dongfang understood.

He moved forward.

He stretched out his hand and drew a circle of light in the air, muttering poetry silently.

Then the aperture suddenly doubled in size and fell to the ground, forming a light film-like cover with a radius of three meters.

"I also ask all the gentlemen in the inner prison to line up and step forward. Pass through the aperture one by one. If there is anything unusual, the aperture will emit an abnormal signal."

Everyone in the audience looked at each other, not knowing whether to pass or not.

Then a man gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and jumped onto the aperture. As a result, he rushed out of the aperture without any hindrance.

The man stood outside in a daze.

Mr. Dongfang gave him a look of approval.

The man was overjoyed and walked to the queue marked on the side, watching the crowd pass by one after another.

As more and more figures passed through the aperture easily, everyone was about to think that it didn't matter.

Although, one person was blocked.

"Hurry...let me out..."

The man in the aperture was very anxious, with cold sweat constantly coming out of his forehead.

The people watching around were not stupid. Just by looking at the man, they knew that he must be hiding something.

“So this aperture is real?”

"Fortunately, I have nothing to hide..."

"Me too…"

Those who passed were secretly glad.

Those who didn't get their turn started to get nervous.

"Take him away, the others continue!"

As the number of people in the queue decreased, five more people who were unable to get out of the aperture were discovered, and they were all taken away without exception.

"Well, is there something fishy about that prison guard?"

Chu He looked at a second-level prison guard who was three figures in front of him. Under Chu He's spiritual perception, he saw that the prison guard had a little sweat on his forehead and his true energy was faintly visible.

This way.

No matter how Chu He looked at him, he felt that he had something to hide.

"But, it's his turn soon..."

"Sir, I suddenly remembered something. Can we take the test another day?"

The jailer in front of Chu He suddenly confessed his crime and was about to go outside.

Beads of sweat the size of beans were still appearing on his forehead, and his fingers were slightly clenched, looking nervous.

"Well?"

The three big men on the stage locked eyes and exchanged secret thoughts.

Ye Yixiao stepped forward and said, "Is there anyone who doesn't want to be tested today? Go aside first and think of a better reason. I will forgive you!"

"Everyone else continue."

Soon, two more sneaky people stood up from the crowd and each gave their own reasons.

Ye Yixiao smiled and nodded, asking them to stand aside first.

A moment later, Chu He also walked onto the stage and entered the aperture.

Then, he walked out without any hindrance.

As the number of people in the queue decreased, this "thief-catching meeting" soon came to an end.

Until the last person has finished testing.

Ye Yixiao glanced at everyone and said loudly: "I am deeply relieved. Among hundreds of colleagues, there are only three people with guilty consciences..."

Everyone: "???"

Didn’t we just arrest seven or eight people?

The result, the next second.

On the side of the martial arts field, several people who had just been captured walked out talking and laughing.

"Hey, Lao Liu, I was pretending just now, wasn't I? I've been acting in my mind all afternoon..."

"Haha, it's quite similar. I was shocked. But I'm not bad either..."

Everyone in the audience: "..."

It seems like you are all the sixth one???

Afterwards, Ye Yixiao looked at the three people who were about to escape and said coldly, "Don't even think about running away. Can you escape from under the eyes of a third-grade grandmaster?"

"Brother Zishan, thank you for your help."

Mr. Dongfang smiled slightly, looked at the three people, and once again waved a green light from his hand to cover the three people.

The three people who had been unable to move for some time suddenly began to struggle with ferocious looks on their faces when they were enveloped by the green light.

The people in the audience were shocked.

It seems that they were just acting, and the real self-examination of the culture and morality has only just begun.

With the green light covering it.

The three of them struggled violently for a moment.

Their eyes dimmed and they became stunned.
