"Who killed him!"

Discipline Hall Enforcer received the news and came to Third Floor Dungeon. He looked at the two mummies on the ground and asked angrily.

If something happens to the temporarily detained disciples in Black Dungeon, they Discipline Hall will be punished.

At least one month's offerings will be deducted.

Everyone looked at the cell where Jiang Ping An was.

Jin Di had a dark face and kicked open Jiang Ping An's door angrily, "Get out! Do you think hiding inside is useful?"

Jiang Ping An opened the formation, raised his eyes, "What to do?"

"What are you doing? You killed someone and you pretended to be innocent?"

Jin Di walked over, grabbed Jiang Ping An's collar, "Press Ascension Pavilion Rules, kill Ascension Pavilion Disciple at will, and execute him!"

Jiang Ping An looked at him directly, "Why do you say I am the murderer?"

"Everyone has identified you, but you still pretend?"

Jin Di punched Jiang Ping An in the chest.

Body Integration Realm A powerful blow, even if it is casual, is still extremely powerful.

Jiang Ping An hit the stone wall hard, his bones and internal organs cracked, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, "Are you sure they identified me?"

"You're still pretending to be a coffin, and you won't cry until you see the coffin."

The irritable Jin Di turned around and asked everyone, "Did this guy kill the person?"

Everyone looked at each other, no one said anything.

Jin Di was stunned, "He wasn't the one who killed him? Then why did you look over just now?"

The two-meter-tall Cheng Han walked out scratching his chest and said, "I didn't see who killed him."

"It's just that this newcomer had some conflicts with the two deceased people, so everyone subconsciously suspected it was him, but he never came out of the room from the beginning to the end."

"Then you didn't tell me earlier!"

Jin Di knew that he had misunderstood Jiang Ping An, but he didn't care. A misunderstanding was just a misunderstanding. So what?

"None of you saw who killed him?"

Everyone shook their heads.

These two people died suddenly, and they died very strangely. They became mummies, as if they had been sucked dry by something.

Jin Di's face became gloomy. Two disciples died in Black Dungeon, which was enough for them Discipline Hall to drink a pot.

If the murderer cannot be found, the punishment will be even more severe.

Jin Di's face changed back and forth several times, he turned his head and glanced at Jiang Ping An, then looked at everyone and said:

"Not long ago, this newcomer was dissatisfied with the oppression of these two disciples, and a conflict broke out between the two parties. After Black Dungeon was imprisoned, this newcomer was unwilling to accept it and assassinated him. You all saw it, right."

Everyone was stunned for a moment and immediately understood what Jin Di meant.

Now a scapegoat is needed.

Jin Di doesn't bother to investigate at all. Even if they investigate, they can't investigate it at their level.

Simply, arrange the most likely murderer directly.

A new person with no background and a history of conflict is the best scapegoat.

Everyone despised Jin Di's behavior, but no one jumped out to contradict it.

This newcomer has nothing to do with them. If he dies, he will die. If he offends Discipline Hall, he will not be able to live with it.

There is no emotion on Jiang Ping An's face. Anyone who knows Jiang Ping An will know that the more he looks like this, the angrier he feels inside at the moment.

Jin Di was very satisfied when no one said anything, so he decided to convict directly and the case would be closed.

In order to avoid long nights and many dreams, the people were executed directly and the whole thing was over.

At this moment, the sturdy Cheng Han suddenly said, "You Discipline Hall are still as disgusting as ever. If you dare to do this, I will report you."

Hearing this, the other disciples froze and hurried back to their rooms, not wanting to get involved in this matter.

Whether it is Cheng Han or Discipline Hall, ordinary disciples like them cannot provoke them.

Jin Di stared at Cheng Han coldly, "This is none of your business, so don't interfere."

If anyone else dared to talk so much, they would be punched.

But this person is not good. Cheng Han's master is not an ordinary person.

"It's really none of my business, but I find you Discipline Hall disgusting."

Cheng Han took out a Image Recording Stone and said, "Continue to enforce the law. I will record it so that all the disciples of the Ascension Pavilion can see how you enforce the law."

Jin Di The corners of his mouth dropped down, as if his mother was dead. This damn bastard always caused trouble for him.

"You want to investigate, right? Well, let's get to the bottom of it, starting with you."

Jin Di is very annoyed now. No one can take it easy when Cheng Han messes up something that was originally very simple.

Over the next two days, Discipline Hall launched an investigation into the matter.

But Hu Xu Ran and Fu Hui died so strangely, and no one saw them, that the murderer could not be found at all.

Finally, Jin Di brought Jiang Ping An into the room alone, turned on the formation, and blocked the outside view.

Jin Di made a cup of tea for Jiang Ping An and said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to be a genius. I heard that you have good fighting ability and can compete with Cheng Han in pure physical fitness in this realm."

"Among Body Cultivator of the same level in the entire branch, you can rank in the top thirty."

"We Discipline Hall are short of manpower right now. Your skills are good and you can kill Fu Hui and Hu Xu Ran quietly. Are you interested in joining us? As long as you join us Discipline Hall, you will not be short of training resources."

Jin Di smiled and was extremely enthusiastic.

Jiang Ping An did not respond to the other party's question, but said, "I didn't kill the person, I'm not that powerful."

As long as Jiang Ping An answers Jin Di's question, he has fallen into Jin Di's language trap and become a murderer.

Because the other party was not inviting at all, but was using words to guide Jiang Ping An to admit the fact of murder.

Hearing Jiang Ping An's answer, the smile on Jin Di's face disappeared. He poured hot tea on Jiang Ping An's face and grabbed Jiang Ping An's neck.

"I will give you one last chance. Don't let me get into trouble. Admit this matter. Otherwise, even if you can walk out from here, I can bring you back again! You will never be able to practice!"

Jiang Ping An said nothing, his eyes were like stagnant water, staring straight at Jin Di.

Jin Di, who was still aggressive at first, suddenly felt a creepy feeling.

This Jiang Ping An was obviously not at a high level, but it gave him a very dangerous illusion.

Jin Di subconsciously wanted to hide. As soon as this thought occurred, he felt humiliated. He was actually frightened by a low-level monk.

"Look at what the fuck!"

Jin Di pulled out the dagger from his waist and stabbed Jiang Ping An hard in the eye, causing blood to fly.

"Made!"

Jin Di opened the formation and left cursing.

This incident was not handled well, the murderer was not found, and several months of resources were withheld.

Jiang Ping An stood there, with daggers stuck in his eyes, and blood slowly slid down Jiang Ping An's stern face.

The other eye stared at Jin Di as he left, as if looking at a dead person.

Jin Di and all the Enforcement Team members left, and Third Floor Black Dungeon restored tranquility.

Cheng Han came over and handed Jiang Ping An a pill.

"Discipline Hall people are like this. They use law enforcement to engage in illegal activities. The sect has nothing to do with them. If you see them in the future, stay away."

"Thank you, I owe you a favor."

Jiang Ping An said thank you without taking the elixir.

If Cheng Han hadn't spoken out, I still don't know what would have happened.

Jiang Ping An pulled out the dagger without saying a word and walked silently towards his previous residence.

Cheng Han stared at Jiang Ping An's back for a long time, not knowing what he was thinking.

Sitting in the cold cell, Jiang Ping An tried hard to calm down the murderous thoughts in his heart.

He wanted to kill someone, but he couldn't do it yet.

Not to mention the Discipline Hall behind Jin Di, that is Jin Di himself, who is also a strong Body Integration Realm, and is simply not something he can fight against now.

The realm is still too low. Only by fully understanding all the laws and cultivating Heaven Origin Realm to the extreme can we perhaps be able to fight against the strong Body Integration Realm.
