With a flash of Spiritual Light, the talisman paper turned into a streak of light, shot out the window, and vanished into the night.
A moment later, a squad of Farm Teachings patrol disciples arrived.
Leading them was a young female cultivator in the azure robes of an Inner Sect disciple. A longsword hung at her waist, and though her features were delicate, they carried a hint of heroic spirit.
She spotted the Jade Tablet at Su Miao's waist at once—the Personal Disciple Jade Tablet Su Miao had just taken from her sash—as well as the aura of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm that Su Miao had deliberately released.
She immediately cupped her fists in salute, her movements crisp and efficient, respectful without being servile.
"Martial brother, is this man causing trouble?"
Su Miao nodded and tipped her chin toward the five people kneeling on the ground.
"Harassing a respectable woman. Take them away and deal with them according to the rules."
With a wave of the female cultivator's hand, the Patrol Squad pounced like wolves and tigers.
Today's quota was secured, and so was the bonus.
Several burly male cultivators each grabbed one person, hauling the young master and his four attendants off the ground and dragging them away like chicks.
Only then did the young master recover from the lingering effects of the pressure. Struggling, he twisted around, his face full of disbelief, his legs kicking wildly in the air as he wailed.
"Do you know who I am? My father is—"
Su Miao added lazily.
"Add another charge: threatening and intimidating others."
The corner of the female cultivator's mouth twitched upward before she quickly pressed her lips straight again.
She had never seen anyone so eager to pile charges onto himself. Cupping her fists, she answered.
