Compensation

Seeing that Zhou Siyi was also emanating a corpse aura greatly shocked Leng Tianlu.

Zhou Siyi is the daughter of the deputy Peak Master Spirit Beast Peak. She has outstanding cultivation talent and is a well-known cultivation genius in the Beast Taming Sect. Leng Tianlu naturally recognizes her.

He had never expected that Zhou Siyi, who had grown up in the Beast Taming Sect since childhood, would possess such a dense Corpse-Baleful Qi.

Considering Song Wen's composure throughout the entire process from his arrest to his imprisonment, it's worth noting.

A bad feeling rose in Leng Tianlu's heart.

"Could it be that Wu Sheng isn't secretly cultivating Devil Cultivation Method, but rather, under someone's instruction, is secretly developing some kind of new elixir that requires the use of Corpse-Baleful Qi?"

Since Song Wen was from Pill Peak, Leng Tianlu subconsciously thought that Pill Peak was developing some kind of new elixir.

Rong Jingyun's face was ashen, her eyes blazing with murderous fury, and her tone was icy cold.

She gritted her teeth and spoke slowly, word by word.

"Elder Leng, just because there is Corpse-Baleful Qi in Elder Wu's cave abode, you concluded that he was a spy and even tortured him. Your Law Enforcement Hall acts so arbitrarily; it's simply harming your fellow disciples."

Rong Jingyun had initially thought that Leng Tianlu had obtained some important evidence, but it turned out to be just because Song Wen's cave abode had the aura of a corpse.

This made her very angry.

She received a message from Song Wen that the Man-Snake that Song Wen had created was showing signs of merging corpse energy and life energy, but it had been kidnapped.

When she arrived at Song Wen's cave abode was already empty.

Following the lingering aura within the cave abode, they arrived at the Law Enforcement Hall.

She had assumed that the Man-Snake was also Law Enforcement Hall.

It now appears that Leng Tianlu and the others never actually saw the Man-Snake Man-Snake; it was abducted by someone else.

The longer this delay, the lower the chance of finding the Man-Snake.

Moreover, the existence of Man-Snake hybrids is inherently against human ethics and must never be known to the outside world.

If those who abduct the Man-Snake were to take Man-Snake out of the Beast Taming Sect, who knows how badly it would affect the Beast Taming Sect's reputation.

"You will definitely pay the price for what you have done."

Rong Jingyun, her anger blazing, said to Leng Tianlu.

After saying that, she ignored Leng Tianlu and turned to look at Song Wen.

"Elder Wu, who raided your cave abode?"

Song Wen said, "Wang Ming from the East Birch Market Enforcement Team."

Rong Jingyun turned to look at Zhou Siyi.

"Elder Zhou, you stay here and guard Elder Wu. I'm going to capture Wang Ming."

After saying that, she turned and fled out of the prison.

Suddenly, a voice rang in everyone's ears.

"Elder Rong, I heard everything you said. I have already sent men to arrest Wang Ming. Please come to the main hall of the Law Enforcement Hall."

Upon hearing this, Rong Jingyun's expression brightened, and she quickly stopped her escape.

The speaker was Fang Pengyi, the peak master of Danfeng.

On her way to the Law Enforcement Hall, Rong Jingyun had already reported the kidnapping of the Man-Snake to Fang Pengyi via Message Jade Slip.

What she hadn't expected was that Fang Pengyi would arrive so quickly.

Zhou Siyi stared at Leng Tianlu, looking somewhat smug.

"Junior Brother Wu is a hero of our Dan Peak. You have framed him, and now our Dan Peak Master has come to cause you trouble."

After saying that, she turned and walked towards Song Wen, helped Song Wen untie the chains binding him, and then took out two healing pills and fed them to Song Wen.

"Junior Brother Wu, let's go."

Leng Tianlu's face was deathly pale, his hands clenched tightly, and his eyes were filled with hatred.

"That bitch really got me into trouble this time," he thought to himself.

After an incense stick has burned.

Song Wen and the other three arrived at the main hall of the Law Enforcement Hall.

Two people were sitting in the main hall.

The person seated at the top was none other than Feng Xinghai, the deputy hall master of the Law Enforcement Hall, who had monitored Song Wen for any demonic aura when Song Wen joined the Beast Taming Sect.

The person sitting on the left side is Fang Pengyi, the peak master of Danfeng.

With two Golden Core experts present, Song Wen and the others naturally did not have the right to sit and could only stand in the center of the hall.

Before Song Wen and his group arrived, Feng Xinghai and Fang Pengyi had already had a brief discussion.

Feng Xinghai already knew the whole story.

He spoke first.

"Elder Wu, this whole affair stemmed from Leng Tianlu's reckless actions. He wronged you and caused you to suffer an undeserved calamity."

"Although it was Leng Tianlu's fault, I was also negligent in managing my subordinates. I apologize to you here."

Although Song Wen was indignant, as a powerful Golden Core cultivator, he had no choice but to endure it, even if he was unwilling to admit his mistake and apologize in person.

A smile appeared on his face, and he clasped his hands in a fist salute.

"Palace Master Feng, you flatter me. I am deeply humbled."

Seeing Song Wen's reaction, Feng Xinghai's face showed satisfaction.

He was a pragmatic person and did not cause a scene at the Law Enforcement Hall because he had been treated unfairly.

As long as Song Wen doesn't pursue the matter, the matter can be considered closed.

However, Fang Pengyi's next words made Feng Xinghai's face turn ugly.

"Vice Hall Master Feng, you think you can wipe this clean with just an apology? That's wishful thinking."

"I have already apologized in person, Peak Master, what more do you want?" Feng Xinghai said.

Fang Pengyi said slowly.

"The matter of refining Man-Snake corpses was personally ordered and supervised by the First Supreme Elder. Wu Sheng is the most skilled corpse refiner among all the disciples and followers. The Man-Snake he refined already shows signs of the generation of 'Profound Qi'."

"Wu Sheng's cave abode was robbed, the Man-Snake went missing, and Wu Sheng was seriously injured. The murderer was someone from your Law Enforcement Hall. Not only did your Law Enforcement Hall fail to arrest the murderer Wang Ming immediately, but you also framed Wu Sheng as a spy, imprisoned him, and subjected him to severe torture to extract a confession."

"If the First Supreme Lord finds out about this, the Law Enforcement Hall will likely be held accountable."

Feng Xinghai's expression turned extremely ugly.

"Peak Master, this is a trivial matter; there's no need to trouble the First Elder."

"That depends on whether Vice Hall Master Feng is sincere."

Fang Pengyi had a faint smile on his face.

"What do you want?" Feng Xinghai asked.

Fang Pengyi sent a telepathic message.

Upon hearing this, Feng Xinghai's expression shifted between light and dark. After a moment, he spoke.

"Okay, here you go."

Fang Pengyi smiled and said, "Then thank you very much, Palace Master Feng."

Overjoyed, Fang Pengyi's title was changed from "Vice Hall Master Feng" to "Hall Master Feng".

He turned to look at Song Wen.

"Elder Wu, you have suffered greatly in this matter. Even under torture, you did not reveal a single detail about the Man-Snake affair. You have done well. You deserve some compensation. If you want any compensation, just say so. I think Palace Master Feng will not refuse."

Fang Pengyi then turned to look at Feng Xinghai.

"You agree, Palace Master Feng."

Feng Xinghai remained silent for a moment, then finally nodded.

Since Song Wen was working for the First Supreme Elder, he had to be polite to him. If the other party ever caught the First Supreme Elder's eye, even if he was a Golden Core cultivator, he would still have to treat him with respect.
