ALL NOVEL Chapter 42 – Enforcement team
Shui Ling'er possessed a water spiritual root, so naturally, she cultivated water-based techniques. The spiritual energy in her palm transformed into countless water arrows, shooting fiercely towards Lin Hao.
However, Lin Hao was prepared. He raised his hand and conjured a wall of fire.
The water arrows hit the fire wall, making a sizzling sound as steam rose.
"Oh, a woman from Little Bamboo Peak, such a fiery temper?"
Shui Ling'er was a bit surprised. After leaving last time, she had someone investigate the man's background. She knew he was a newly accepted disciple of Great Bamboo Peak, and his cultivation had just broken through to Foundation Establishment. How could he so effortlessly neutralize the sudden lethal move she unleashed?
"Are you at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment?" Shui Ling'er raised her eyebrows and asked.
"What else?"
He really was at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment. Shui Ling'er was astonished. This guy had just become a Foundation Establishment cultivator and had already broken through a minor realm. What kind of heaven-defying cultivation aptitude was this?
"How did you cultivate so quickly? You didn't practice some demonic technique, did you?"
"Want to know?" Lin Hao's lips curled into a smile as he said indifferently, "I'm not telling you!"
"You..."
Facing someone with a higher cultivation level, Shui Ling'er dared not act recklessly.
"Lin, you walk your broad road, and I'll cross my single-plank bridge. Let's not interfere with each other, okay?"
"I'm afraid that's not possible. You're causing trouble on my turf, how can I ignore it?"
Sensing the inappropriate gaze from the other party, Shui Ling'er cursed inwardly, calling him a lecher.
"What exactly do you want?"
"It's not about what I want, but what you can make me want."
Shui Ling'er felt a chill from the aggressive gaze and dared not stay any longer. She walked away with her alluring legs.
Lin Hao watched her snake-like waistline, feeling a surge of wicked fire in his heart. He was just about to turn back and find the little fox to complete his unfinished business.
Unfortunately, Han Liyue arrived. The woman swayed her graceful hips as she walked up to Lin Hao, a hint of charm in her eyes.
"The enforcement team is coming, better behave today."
Enforcement team? Lin Hao looked up along the dim prison path towards the outside of the tower.
Indeed, he saw a team of people dressed in white. They didn't walk on the ground but stepped on a floating carpet, seemingly disdaining the dirtiness of the prison, even covering their mouths and noses, looking somewhat... pretentious.
"They look like a flock of geese..."
Hearing Lin Hao's whisper, Han Liyue almost couldn't hold back her laughter.
She quickly stepped forward to liaise with the enforcement team.
"Lin Hao, come quickly to meet Captain Wang of the enforcement team."
She secretly gave Lin Hao a look, signaling him to show some respect to these fussy geese.
She wasn't afraid of the geese but didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble with these nitpickers.
Before Lin Hao could act, the so-called Captain Wang took two steps forward, his eyes like mung beans, sizing up Lin Hao.
"You're Lin Hao?"
"I've heard about you, the fool toyed with by the witch."
Clang!
Lin Hao drew a flying sword and said coldly, "Say that again!"
"Say..."
The mung bean-eyed cultivator, accustomed to arrogance, instinctively wanted to retort, but before he could finish, he felt the scorching sword aura aimed at his neck.
He had long heard of Lin Hao's unruly nature, someone who feared neither heaven nor earth, but he hadn't expected him to dare draw his sword in front of him!
He was arrogant but not stupid.
He wasn't afraid of Lin Hao but feared the person behind him.
"Elder Han, as the manager of the demon-suppressing tower, don't you usually manage your people?"
Han Liyue didn't have a good impression of these geese, her words laced with subtle barbs.
"I manage demons."
"Hmph!"
The mung bean-eyed man snorted coldly, flicking his robe sleeves.
"Then let me see how you manage these demons!"
The mung bean-eyed man led a group of geese to inspect the cells, only to find many demons either crippled or withered, and quite a few empty cells.
He immediately acted like a wild cat smelling fish, jumping and shouting, "Elder Han, what's going on here? I need an explanation!"
Hearing this, Han Liyue smiled wryly. She couldn't explain this situation. She couldn't possibly say it was caused by two direct disciples, could she?
Not to mention, if reported, the masters behind the disciples might take offense.
Even if she offended these geniuses, once they grew, she wouldn't have a good time either.
This demon-suppressing elder treated her fairly well, so Lin Hao didn't let her take the blame, taking responsibility himself.
"In such a large prison, isn't it normal for a few demons to die?"
"Do you think it's normal or not, Captain Wang..."
Captain Wang's face turned a bit ugly, "Hmph!"
With a cold snort, Captain Wang led his men away.
At the door, he finally dared to issue a threat, "I'll report the situation here truthfully!"
Seeing this, Han Liyue couldn't help but smile.
Lin Hao was truly domineering, not even putting the enforcement team in his eyes.
Despite her admiration, she still reminded him earnestly, "The enforcement team is the Discipline Elder's direct line. Offending them might lead to trouble in the sect."
Lin Hao said nonchalantly, "Is there still room for maneuver between me and the Discipline Elder?"
Han Liyue knew that the master of Great Bamboo Peak had turned against the Discipline Elder to protect Lin Hao, causing him to lose face in front of everyone.
The Discipline Elder couldn't do anything to Feng Cangyue, so naturally, he would hold Lin Hao accountable.
"Even so, you should still watch your words and actions. After all, little devils are hard to deal with."
"When there are too many lice, they don't bite. When there are too many debts, they don't worry. We'll deal with it as it comes!"
