Chapter 1159 The Lawbringer of Knowledge: Mere Shackles!

Could this girl in front of me be... an absolute idiot who surpasses Kiana?

The Lawbringer was not very familiar with the newcomer, but Xing, who had lived on the Immortal Ship for a period of time, knew the person.

So he began to explain:

"Su Chang, a member of the Cloud Cavalry, has an ambiguous relationship with Lin Mao and ranked among the top in the previous martial arts ceremony."

He turned to look at Su Chang, sizing her up and down. Seeing that she was still dressed in the same Cloud Cavalry outfit, he felt a little strange.

"Hey? You didn't get a promotion?"

I originally thought that Su Chang's performance in the martial arts ceremony would lead to a promotion. I don't think she would be promoted to the top in one step, but she certainly wouldn't be a regular Cloud Cavalryman anymore, right?

As it turns out, she still seems to be just an ordinary Cloud Rider.

"You are... a member of the Starry Sky Train?"

Su Chang recognized Xing, scratched her head, and said somewhat embarrassedly, "Promotion requires studying various military books, those... I, I can't understand them."

After saying that, he seemed to feel too embarrassed, so he waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "Oh well, it's all for the sake of the Immortal Ship. There's nothing wrong with being a lowly Cloud Rider."

'So it turns out he was a father.'

Those who understand the laws of nature pondered this in their hearts.

No wonder when I saw her, I felt that she had a similar temperament to Kiana. It turns out that she is an idiot just like Kiana.

Xing chatted with Su Chang with a smile, and then found an opportunity in the conversation to make a quick escape.

But at the last moment, Su Chang remembered her duty here and stopped Xing from trying to escape.

His seemingly simple eyes were filled with sharpness.

"We have received a report from the public that unidentified individuals are gathering and causing damage in Suiyuan. Please come with me, the three of you."

The Lawbringer, arms crossed, asked, "What if I don't?"

Su Chang gripped her longsword tightly, her sharp eyes fixed on the Herrscher of Knowledge who had spoken, and said, "Then don't blame me for going too far!"

The Lawbringer grinned at her.

The Ten Kings' Office.

The three, Shi Zhilu, Xing, and Ying, sat side by side, each wearing shackles. A judge from the Ten Kings' Court sat at the table opposite them.

She was an old acquaintance of Lin Mao's; he would bump into her every time he went in. She was practically a tireless judge, like a crow.

"Hoo—" The crow exhaled, its eyes, with thick dark circles, looking at the three people in front of it. Two were obedient, while one was restless.

Ignoring all that, she recited the opening line with practiced ease, "Confess and you'll be treated leniently; resist and you'll be punished severely..."

Splash!

“I didn’t resist. I came here with you, and this is how you… you treat me!”

The restless Herrscher of Knowledge raised his hands, his silver bracelets reflecting the light of the lamps. The raven glanced at them and offered an explanation.

"This is something that every prisoner entering the Ten Kings Division must wear."

The Herald of Knowledge sneered, "What nonsense! Did Lin Mao bring it with him? If he didn't, I won't either!"

The crow patiently explained, "The nature of the things you committed is different."

It's important to understand that the Herrscher of Knowledge and others are defined as being related to violence, so naturally, there needs to be something to limit their power.

Those who understood the laws didn't care about any of that and impatiently said, "Untie me!"

The crow sighed and said, "Rules are rules, and I can't undo them for you."

The Herrscher of Knowledge sneered, "You won't untie me? You don't actually think a few small shackles can restrain me, the Herrscher of Knowledge, do you?!"

"Just with this tiny... shackles!"

The Herrscher of Knowledge exerted force with both hands, trying to tear the shackles apart. The crow opposite her watched her quietly as her face gradually turned red.

Click!

The crow was startled by the noise.

Ying and Xing exchanged a glance across the distance, blinked, and looked up at the Herrscher of Knowledge sitting between them.

The Lawbringer slowly lowered his hands and sat back down. The shackles on his hands remained firmly in place, reflecting the light from above.

That sound just now...

That crisp sound just now...

The two shifted their gaze to the Herrscher of Knowledge's arm. The Herrscher of Knowledge moved her arm slightly, blocking their view, and glared at them.

"What are you looking at? As a criminal suspect, what are you trying to do by looking around like that? Are you thinking of some crooked idea to escape?"

Han Ya snapped out of his daze, glanced at her swollen arm, and asked considerately, "Do you need me to arrange a doctor for you?"

The Herald of Knowledge scoffed, "No need! I'm not injured, what do I need a doctor for?"

The crows were silent.

Having served in the Ten Kings' Court for so long, this was the first time she had ever seen such a formidable person as the Herrscher of Knowledge, who had broken her own arm.

If a normal person realizes they can't break the bond, wouldn't they give up?

The one who knew the law was stubborn and insisted on breaking it. In the end, it broke as she wished, but it wasn't the shackles that broke, but her arm.

The Ten Kings' Office was a place that could imprison the leaders of the Buli people and the envoys of the Fengrao County.

The shackles provided to prisoners here could not possibly be something that can be broken off by brute force.

Looking at the Herald of Knowledge, who showed no signs of discomfort except for a slight twitch at the corner of his eye, the crow shook his head and ignored him.

"Confess and you'll be treated leniently; resist and you'll be punished severely. You three better tell me honestly what you were doing in Suiyuan."

The Herald of Knowledge remained silent as he recovered from his injuries, leaving the explanation to Hoshi and Ying.

The two exchanged a glance, one drew the Spear of the Void and the other the Greatsword of Fire, before beginning to explain what had happened.

This action made Han Ya's eyelids twitch.

She didn't know about the Spear of the Void, but the greatsword that Ying pulled out, with its style, was probably familiar to most people on the Immortal Ship.

The two followed Lin Mao's instructions and did not mention his name at all, but in Han Ya's eyes, the two kept mentioning Lin Mao in every sentence.

……

【Ding dong! 】

Funina: I knew they would definitely be arrested.

The news that the three—the Herrscher of Knowledge, Hoshi, and Ying—had been captured was immediately relayed to the chat group by the Pink Fairy.

Three unidentified individuals were fighting on the fairy boat without reporting it. If she had found out, she would have sent people to arrest them as well.

Lin Mao: Just don't mention my name.

Funina: It's no use not saying your name.

Fu Ningna: Xing and Ying each have something that can prove your identity. If they take it out, do you think it still matters whether or not your name is mentioned?

Lin Mao: ...

Upon closer reflection, it's true!

Lin Mao: Damn it! Meaning, I'm going to have to take the blame for these guys again!

Xing: What do you mean by taking the blame? We have always followed your orders, and everything we have done has been approved by you.

Lin Mao couldn't refute this statement even if he wanted to.

After all, when he gave away the Spear of the Void and the Greatsword of Fire, it meant that he had agreed to their decision.

Lin Mao: ...Did it cause any damage?

There was some damage in Suiyuan, but compensation is a minor issue; the key is how to comfort the victims' families.

Lin Mao didn't want to be known as a gravedigger.

Ying: Brother, don't worry, I held back. Apart from breaking a few artificial hills and burning a few small trees, I didn't cause any damage.

Big Black Tower: Are you sure you smashed a rockery?

Ying: ...Confirmed!

Lin Mao: Okay, give me back my things.

Xing: (Red envelope) Thank you, brother~

Ying: (Red envelope) Thank you, brother~

Ying: @Xing, ?

Xing: What's wrong?

Ying: Are you calling me?

If he's your brother, then call him that!

Xing: You can call me that, but I can't?

Xing: I don't even want to talk about you, you purebred beast!
