Dispute, Faces Completely Torn Apart

"Scoundrel!"

"You're courting death!"

"How dare a toad like you claim to know my Sister-in-law."

Hearing his Sister-in-law mentioned again, He An's rage could no longer be contained. It erupted instantly, and he cursed loudly in front of the passing Town Martial Division clerks.

For a moment.

Sun Wangxian froze in place.

Upon hearing the curses, the passing Town Martial Division clerks and constables widened their eyes and looked over in disbelief.

"You..."

Meng Cao's chest heaved with anger.

In his many years at the Town Martial Division, this was the first time he had been publicly insulted.

"Damn it, a brat who became a Martial Artist halfway, dares to speak to me so disrespectfully."

"Good, very good!!"

Meng Cao said sinisterly, "Since that's the case, I'll teach you a good lesson about how things work in this division, saving your Eldest Brother the trouble."

His aura suddenly erupted.

The might of a Ninth Rank expert instantly forced Sun Wangxian back several steps, his eyes filled with shock.

Ninth Rank.

Also known as the Refining Essence Realm.

Temper Physique, refine Qi and Blood, strength far exceeding the basic four-realm Martial Artists.

At this realm, one had already transcended the scope of ordinary people. Not only would their appetite be astonishing, but their vitality would also be enhanced.

Sun Wangxian quickly shouted, "Clerk Meng, the Town Martial Division has rules. Attacking one's own people will result in severe punishment. Brother Gu was just anxious, which is why he spoke out of turn."

"Shut up!"

Meng Cao roared, "How could I not know the rules of the division? It's just that this brat is too arrogant and still dares to speak so disrespectfully to his superior."

"If I let this go, where will my authority be in the future?"

"No matter what, I must teach him a lesson, make him understand that in the Town Martial Division, not just anyone can provoke their superiors."

He An's expression remained unchanged.

As long as he was within the Sinei, his safety was guaranteed.

No matter how angry Meng Cao was, or how much he wanted to kill him to vent his anger, he wouldn't dare do it in front of so many people.

Suddenly.

A shout interrupted Meng Cao's actions.

"Stop!"

Following the sound, a familiar figure suddenly appeared.

It was Clerk Wei Yangyun, who had helped He An join the Town Martial Division and was at odds with Meng Cao.

His expression was cold and grave. "Clerk Meng, you're quite the bully. To lay hands on our own people in broad daylight, in front of so many witnesses?"

"Have you forgotten the rules of our Town Martial Division?"

"Striking our own people will result in the forfeiture of your cultivation and immediate expulsion from the Town Martial Division."

"Or perhaps, you simply don't care about those rules."

Some things are fine as long as they aren't weighed.

But once they are, even a thousand pounds won't hold them down.

Therefore, upon hearing Wei Yangyun's words, Meng Cao's pupils contracted sharply, and his actions halted abruptly.

"Brother Wei, I was merely disciplining a newcomer, and you're trying to pin such a serious accusation on me. Isn't that a bit inappropriate!"

He pointed at He An and said coldly, "This brat was disrespectful, not only insulting me but also slandering me."

"If I were you, I wouldn't be able to remain calm either."

"That's not necessarily true!" Wei Yangyun looked at him with a half-smile.

Seeing the growing crowd, Meng Cao had no choice but to give up on attacking He An. He threatened, "He An, I'll remember today's incident."

"Don't worry, I won't retaliate against you!!"

"I'll be waiting!"

He An gritted his teeth and said each word deliberately.

Seeing Meng Cao leave, He An cupped his fists and thanked him, "Thank you, Clerk Wei, for your assistance."

Wei Yangyun chuckled, "No need for pleasantries. Even without me, he wouldn't have dared to go too hard. Otherwise, the Captain would definitely not have let him off."

"Regardless, I still thank Lord Wei for his righteous intervention."

Wei Yangyun looked at He An with admiration.

"He An, I was the one who processed your entry into the Town Martial Division. I just didn't expect you to have such a fiery temper, not holding back at all in front of that guy."

"This attitude of yours, I find it quite admirable."

He An smiled slightly, "It is my honor to be admired by Lord Wei. Today, seeing Clerk Wei, I should indeed thank you publicly."

"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have joined the Town Martial Division."

With that, he bowed again, sincerely saying, "Thank you, Clerk Wei!!"

"No need for thanks!"

Seeing He An like this, Wei Yangyun's admiration for him grew even stronger.

Anyone would find someone who understands gratitude, values loyalty, and is brave and fearless likable, and he was no exception. It was just a pity that he started learning martial arts halfway through; his future path might not be far!

He shook his head and sighed inwardly.

"Alright, since there's nothing else, I'll be going now. There's a lot of work in the division. If you ever run into trouble in the future, you can always come find me."

After Wei Yangyun left, the others also dispersed.

Sun Wangxian breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother He, you are truly bold."

"Do you know how scared you made me just now?"

"If Clerk Wei hadn't intervened suddenly, and if he didn't have a good impression of you, Clerk Meng's demeanor would have truly led to a fight to the death with you."

"And in that situation, no one present could have stopped him."

"Don't worry, Brother Sun, I know what I'm doing."

"Knowing what you're doing is a ghost!" Sun Wangxian muttered inwardly.

At this moment.

He An asked, "Brother Sun, you mentioned I should leave the Criminal Prison. When will that be, or can I follow you now?"

"Now!"

Sun Wangxian replied without hesitation, "It's just a matter of time. It's better to follow me now so you can get acquainted with the brothers properly."

"Oh, right!"

He suddenly thought of something, "This morning, a murder case was discovered in the city. Several people were killed during the night. Why don't you come with me to take a look?"

"Alright!"

He An didn't think much of it.

"Then Brother Sun, wait for me. I need to go back to the Criminal Prison and talk to Brother Wu."

Not long after.

He An rushed back.

This time, He An wasn't alone. Wu Wenming was with him.

"Young Master Wu, you are..."

Sun Wangxian was a bit confused.

He An gave a wry smile and explained, "It's nothing. Brother Wu heard I had already left the Criminal Prison, so he also intends to leave the Criminal Prison."

Sun Wangxian's mouth twitched.

However, looking at the familiar way the two interacted, he was inwardly surprised. He hadn't expected their relationship to be even better than he imagined.

The Wu Family Patriarch, the Wu Family Young Master.

One old, one young, both thought highly of He An.

Just this alone meant that his protection of He An today would surely bring him great benefits in the future.

Thinking of this.

Sun Wangxian was overjoyed.

From his current perspective, his future was boundless!

Afterward.

The group left the Town Martial Division and headed towards a certain place within the city.

But as they walked, He An gradually realized something was wrong. He had a vague premonition about where they were going.

"No way, it can't be this coincidental. The criminal they're apprehending this time isn't someone else..."

"But me??"
