The cold voice fell, and everyone present was stunned.

"Damn, this guy has a big tone, actually telling the chiliarch to release Wang Xuan as soon as he opens his mouth. What's his background?"

"I don't know, but looking at the chiliarch's expression, this guy obviously has an extraordinary background, and he even came flying on a sword!"

"Definitely a strong person!"

The crowd had never seen Li Qingyi and didn't know its identity. Hearing Li Qingyi's words at this moment, they couldn't help but be stunned, and then began to whisper.

Wang Xuan heard the voice and turned his head, his eyes narrowing when he looked at Li Qingyi!

"It's them?"

"Why would they come to save me?"

Wang Xuan was puzzled.

He had only met Li Qingyi twice.

There was no friendship between them!

The only connection was when he met Zhou Laifu a few days ago, and they stepped in to save him!

But that was also because of Li Qingyi's own identity as a member of the Demon Slayer Division.

Yang Tianfeng frowned.

Although he also wanted to let Wang Xuan go, Wang Xuan had killed someone in the military camp and was seen by everyone. Even if he wanted to let Wang Xuan go, it was impossible to release him in front of everyone.

"Young Master Li, Wang Xuan killed someone in the military camp. According to the laws of the Great Yuan, he must be imprisoned and await punishment."

"Releasing him... I'm afraid that won't work!"

Yang Tianfeng shook his head and refused.

Li Qingyi's expression remained indifferent.

They turned to look at Wang Xuan and said, "You said just now that the person you killed was from the Pity Life Sect, is that right?"

Wang Xuan nodded.

"Yes."

"Good."

"Chiliarch Yang, in my capacity as an Inspector of the Demon Slayer Division, I will guarantee him three days!"

"Within three days, I will help him find evidence to prove his innocence."

As Li Qingyi spoke, a cyan-white token appeared in their hand.

It bore an ancient character for "Inspector"!

Hearing the words "Demon Slayer Division."

The expressions of everyone around changed drastically, and their eyes towards Li Qingyi showed a bit more fear!

This young man turned out to be an Inspector of the Demon Slayer Division!

No wonder they dared to speak to the chiliarch like that!

But!

What relationship did they have with Wang Xuan, and why did they come to help him?

Could it be that Wang Xuan had a backer?

In the crowd.

Fan Hong and Sun Qingfeng's expressions were a little unsightly.

They originally thought that Wang Xuan was only backed by Yang Tianfeng. Now that Wang Xuan had killed someone, even Yang Tianfeng couldn't protect him!

But!

If Wang Xuan had a relationship with the Demon Slayer Division, then the situation would be completely different!

The Demon Slayer Division had a strict hierarchy.

The lowest level was the Demon Slayers, and above them were the Inspectors!

To some extent, the Inspector's position was half a level higher than the chiliarch!

They had great power!

Yang Tianfeng was stunned when he saw Li Qingyi take out the Inspector's token, and he didn't react for a moment.

He knew Li Qingyi's identity better than anyone!

They had absolutely no relationship with Wang Xuan!

But why did they want to protect Wang Xuan?

Xu Kui frowned and said, "Inspector, I'm afraid this is inappropriate."

"Wang Xuan is a member of the military camp. Since he killed someone, he should be dealt with according to the regulations of the military camp. Although you are an Inspector, you have no right to interfere in the affairs of the military camp, right?"

The moment the words left its mouth, Li Qingyi frowned.

Its cold gaze fell upon Xu Kui.

Instantly!

Xu Kui instantly felt a terrifying pressure bearing down!

Even though he was at the Entangling Serpent Realm Completion, facing this pressure, he felt as if a mountain was pressing down on him!

He groaned, and with a thud, he knelt on one knee!

Yang Tianfeng inwardly cursed.

This Xu Kui was a confidant of Lord Commander, upright and inflexible!

Seeing Xu Kui about to be forced to kneel, Yang Tianfeng quickly released a wisp of his aura to counter the pressure, and said:

"Silence!"

"How dare you interrupt when I'm speaking with the Inspector!"

Xu Kui immediately fell silent.

Yang Tianfeng frowned and said, "Young Master Li, while Xu Kui's words may be unpleasant, he didn't lie. This is, after all, a matter for our military camp."

"Moreover, even if I give Wang Xuan three days, what if he can't find any evidence after three days?"

In front of so many people, Yang Tianfeng didn't show any favoritism towards Wang Xuan.

Before Li Qingyi could speak, Wang Xuan said, "Commander, give me three days. If I can't find any evidence after three days, I, Wang Xuan, am willing to accept any punishment!"

Li Qingyi also said, "If any other problems arise during this period, I will take full responsibility."

Yang Tianfeng felt a sense of unease.

Could it be that the guy who died earlier really had something to do with the Pity Life Sect?

After a moment of contemplation, Yang Tianfeng said, "Alright."

"Since Young Master Li is willing to vouch for you, then I'll give you three days!"

"If, after three days, you have no evidence to prove your innocence."

"Then you must return to the military camp to be interrogated!"

Yang Tianfeng nodded towards the two flag officers who were holding Wang Xuan, and they immediately released Wang Xuan.

"Thank you, Commander, thank you, Young Master Li."

"Commander, I was wondering if I could have a bow and a Pudao!"

Wang Xuan said to Yang Tianfeng.

His strength and martial arts were all focused on archery and the Pudao. Without weapons, his strength would be greatly reduced.

Yang Tianfeng heard this and said, "Wu Shan!"

"Go get a heavy bow and a Pudao!"

Wu Shan immediately turned and left, and soon returned with a heavy bow, twenty arrows, and a Pudao.

"Brother Wang, take care!"

Wu Shan handed the bow, arrows, and Pudao to Wang Xuan.

"Thank you, Chief Wu!"

"Thank you, Commander!"

Wang Xuan cupped his fist towards both of them.

Li Qingyi grabbed Wang Xuan with one hand out of thin air, and the two instantly turned into a streak of sword light and flew away.

Watching Wang Xuan being taken away, the surrounding new recruits looked at each other.

In their opinion, once Wang Xuan was taken away, he most likely wouldn't be coming back.

However, with the Demon Slayer Division intervening, even if Wang Xuan was fine, they wouldn't dare to say a word.

"Commander, why did you let it take Wang Xuan away? According to the laws of our Great Yuan, the Demon Slayer Division has no right to interfere in our military camp!"

Xu Kui looked at Li Qingyi leaving with Wang Xuan, his face somewhat unnatural as he asked.

"Silence!"

Yang Tianfeng coldly glanced at Xu Kui.

"It is an Inspector. If it wants to take someone away, could you stop it?"

"Moreover, Wang Xuan also said that he killed the man because the person he killed was related to the Pity Life Sect. If Li Qingyi wants to investigate, would you dare to stop it?"

Two sentences left Xu Kui speechless.

Yang Tianfeng narrowed his eyes.

"Wang Xuan, ah, Wang Xuan, I hope you don't disappoint this Commander!"

"After all, this Commander has high hopes for you!"

He had a very good first impression of Wang Xuan, and Wang Xuan's performance last time only made him rekindle his hope of returning to the Imperial Capital.

"Li Qingyi came to the military camp to save Wang Xuan at this time. How did it know Wang Xuan would kill someone?"

"The one who died, is he really related to the Pity Life Sect?"

Yang Tianfeng narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking to himself.

"Xu Kui, have someone keep a close watch on the body of the person who was killed just now. This Commander wants to investigate it personally!"

Yang Tianfeng waved his hand and turned to leave.

The surrounding flag officers and recruits also retreated.

Xu Kui glanced in the direction Wang Xuan left, a cold light flashing in his eyes!

Wang Xuan was grabbed by Li Qingyi and flown away. Before he could react, he saw the mountains below rushing past.

His breathing quickened instantly!

He was actually flying in the sky!

It's just that the posture was a bit unsightly.

A moment later.

Li Qingyi brought Wang Xuan to a mountain top before putting him down.

Wang Xuan landed and gasped for breath.

This was the first time he had experienced the feeling of flying in the sky, and it was really exciting!

He calmed down and cupped his hands towards Li Qingyi, "Thank you, Young Master Li, for saving my life."

Li Qingyi's expression was indifferent, only looking at Wang Xuan coldly.

Seeing that Wang Xuan had caught his breath, Li Qingyi directly asked, "Tell me everything that happened just now, word for word."

Wang Xuan was wondering why Li Qingyi had saved him. Hearing the other party's question, he immediately told everything about Lu Qing spying on him and his encounter when he was bewitched by Lu Qing.

After listening to Wang Xuan's account, killing intent surged in Li Qingyi's eyes!

"It really is this guy!"

Wang Xuan was puzzled when he saw this.

"Young Master Li, what do you mean by that?"

"I want to know, why did you save me!"

Wang Xuan asked the question in his heart.

He had only met Li Qingyi twice.

The other party saved him last time and gave him a token, but the friendship between the two had not yet reached the point where Li Qingyi would protect him for killing someone!

Therefore.

Li Qingyi was willing to help him, definitely because of Lu Qing!

Li Qingyi looked at Wang Xuan and said coldly, "Take a look at your chest, and you'll know."

"What, my chest?!"

Wang Xuan tore open the clothes on his chest.

He saw a strange Black Face Mark on his chest, constantly twisting, like some kind of curse!

"This... what the hell is this!"
