Now that you have betrayed the sect, who will still pamper you?.

Chapter 243 How could he not know whether he was greedy or not?

Thinking of this, Lin Xuan's heart suddenly skipped a beat. He had just obtained the spirit stone. It couldn't be so fast, right?

No, it definitely couldn't be about the spirit stones. Junior Sister Xin hadn't entered the money into the account yet. At most, these spirit stones were kept here by him waiting to be handed over. It couldn't be considered embezzlement at all!

Thinking of this, he quickly calmed down, sat up straight and asked doubtfully:

"Third Elder, what is this..."

He glanced at the group of Law Enforcement Hall disciples behind him and asked in a questioning tone, "What are you all doing here?"

The Third Elder was followed by more than 20 people, all of whom were at the Jindan Great Perfection or Yuanying stage. He looked at Lin Xuan but did not answer. Instead, he asked expressionlessly:

"Are you Lin Xuan?"

Looking for me?

Lin Xuan's heart tightened and he subconsciously tensed his body.

Everyone in the sect knows that anyone who is targeted by the Law Enforcement Hall will not have a good ending. Either their soul will be extracted and refined to death, or their cultivation will be abolished and they will be expelled from the sect. Even if they are fine and can be put in, they will be skinned alive.

But no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't figure out what he had done wrong.

Since joining the sect, he has always been cautious, fearing that he would be caught doing something wrong. He has never disobeyed the sect's rules. At most, he made some minor mistakes, but they were definitely not enough to alarm the Law Enforcement Hall.

These days, he has been staying at the Baoge Gate without taking a single step out. Even if he wanted to commit a crime, he has no chance.

Thinking of this, he nodded calmly:

"Yes, I am Lin Xuan. What does the Third Elder want from me?"

"It's good that you admit it." The Third Elder nodded slightly, then said solemnly:

"Lin Xuan, listen to my orders. We have received reports from disciples within the sect, saying that you have exploited your position to embezzle sect resources multiple times, taking a large amount of spirit stones for yourself. The amount is extremely huge."

"The Law Enforcement Hall has taken over this matter. Please cooperate with us and go to the Law Enforcement Hall for investigation."

Lin Xuan was stunned. Why did this sound so familiar?

But when he figured out what this meant, his body suddenly went limp and he almost collapsed in his chair.

How could this be possible? How could this be possible? He had just received his first batch of spirit stones, and the lid of the box wasn't even warm yet, and they'd already found him out?

What a fuss! When did the Law Enforcement Hall become this efficient?

What's more, the spirit stone was placed in the secret compartment of the table. It was a public place, not his personal property. How could he be accused of corruption?!

Thinking of this, he suddenly became much more courageous and shouted at the Third Elder:

"What do you mean, Third Elder? I am the Sect Master's personal disciple, and now I am the manager of the Treasure Pavilion. In the entire sect, only the Sect Master can control me."

"You are just a small Yuanying stage elder. Don't say that I am not wrong. Even if I did something wrong, it is not your turn to criticize me!"

"Assisting in the investigation? What qualifications do you have to ask me to assist in the investigation?"

He took out the Sect Master's Seal and placed it on the table, looking at the Third Elder without fear:

"As the saying goes, to catch an adulterer, catch both; to catch a thief, take the stolen goods. Just with your empty words, you think you can take me to the Law Enforcement Hall? You're dreaming!"

"Third Elder, you've been in the Law Enforcement Hall for so long, you should know better than me that no matter what you do, you must have evidence."

After saying that, Lin Xuan picked up the teacup and took a sip. Even though his toes were gripping the ground with nervousness, his face did not show any sign of it, showing his calm demeanor.

However, his slightly trembling teacup revealed that he was not calm at the moment.

But even so, he still gritted his teeth and said sternly:

"If you don't tell me the truth today, I will definitely go to the Sect Master and file a complaint against you!"

Hearing this, the Third Elder was not surprised. He glanced at the sect leader's seal, and his face showed no joy or anger.

"The Law Enforcement Hall never needs evidence to arrest people. Whether they did it or not, I'll tell you after I search their souls!"

"Besides, do you think I don't have evidence?"

Lin Xuan's pupils suddenly shrank when he heard this, and he stared at the third elder.

He has evidence! He actually has evidence? Where did he get it? Don't I know whether I'm greedy or not? And I need you to get the evidence!?

His mind raced as he thought about everything he had done since entering the Treasure Pavilion, but until the end, he still couldn't figure out where he had embezzled money.

He has always been extremely cautious and has never dared to take an extra spirit stone before. This time, for the purpose of settling accounts, he temporarily placed these spirit stones in the treasure pavilion for safekeeping.

He just put it in the treasure pavilion first, and he didn't put it into his own storage bag. Once there is any movement, he can immediately record it into the account and return it to the warehouse. How can this be considered embezzlement?

"Impossible! Ever since I took over the Treasure Pavilion, I have never coveted a single Spirit Stone. Where did you get this evidence? It must be fake. You are framing me. I want to find the Sect Master!"

But the Third Elder did not reply to him. He just waved his hand and shouted:

"Take him away! If you have anything to say, we can talk about it in the Law Enforcement Hall!"

As soon as these words came out, the disciples behind him could not wait to step forward quickly, took out a talisman in their hands, and slapped it on Lin Xuan's forehead with a sound. A golden light spread out, instantly sealing his meridians.

Then, several people took action, grabbed Lin Xuan and dragged him out very roughly.

"Stop! Stop it! I'm the Sect Master's personal disciple, you can't do this to me! If Master knew you were doing this to me, he would definitely not forgive you!"

Lin Xuan staggered when he was pulled, and he shouted anxiously in fear. He didn't expect that these people were serious and they actually dared to attack him!

He is the sect master's personal disciple, and he holds the sect's seal. He is the most powerful person in the sect besides the sect master. How dare they treat him like this?!

Rage surged up in his chest, and he immediately struggled hard, but his meridians were now sealed, and he couldn't mobilize even a trace of spiritual power. He was not even as good as a mortal, so how could he be their opponent?

"Dare to resist?"

The disciple from the Law Enforcement Hall sneered, then exerted a little force with his hands, pressed his head hard on the ground.

"boom--!"

Lin Xuan hit his head on the floor, his entire body slammed hard on the ground. With a crisp sound, two streams of blood flowed out of his nose.

"Ah!" He let out a scream like a slaughtered pig, "I'm the sect master's personal disciple, how dare you hit me?!"

"Behave yourself!" the Law Enforcement Hall disciples shouted. "Once you enter the Law Enforcement Hall, even a dragon will have to coil around you! Let alone a useless insect like you."

"take away!"

Following his command, several more people came up, two of them pulled his arms, two of them pulled his legs, and carried him out like a piglet.

"Let go! Let go! How dare you catch me? Do you want to die? Let me go now!"
