Turning the Tables! Ma Hongjun Caught!
"This is a 'siege'!"
"If you don't go now, you'll miss out!"
The fat man didn't react; he simply squeezed his way out of the crowd.
No one saw the flushed face beneath the straw hat and white veil!
It was none other than Ma Hongjun had been lying low for a long time!
He was in very poor condition at the moment.
He had considered committing the crime against the rules these past few days, but every time he set his sights on a target, the Security Army would come knocking on his door.
It was as if someone was watching him around the clock, from every angle!
"Damn it, I can't suppress this Evil Fire!"
"Ye Hua, if I can't beat you, can't I beat your woman?"
"Pay the price for your actions! I want your woman to bask in my pleasure!"
Ma Hongjun gritted his teeth, touched the medicine in his pocket, and walked into the alley.
However, the moment he turned into the dark alley, a burly figure appeared in front of him!
Before he could react, he was slapped unconscious!
Meanwhile, Salas had completely surrounded the villa.
The Spirit Hall guards following behind them were menacing, and the lowest-ranking among them were Soul Elder.
"What are you trying to do!" Xiao Wu came out to inspect the situation.
Salas ignored him, "Come on, search him!"
Xiao Wu was stunned, not expecting Salas to be so rude.
"What?" Ye Hua stepped forward to protect her. "Is Bishop Salas here to confiscate your property?"
"Heh," Salas sneered, "It's not a matter of confiscating your property, but the Spirit Hall's investigation suspects you of providing Ma Hongjun with secret medicine!"
"The Spirit Hall and Evil Soul Master are sworn enemies; we have a duty to find out the truth!"
Ye Hua narrowed his eyes slightly, "Evidence?"
"Evidence?" Salas scoffed. "The evidence is in your villa!"
"Never mind that, search for me!"
A desperate glint flashed in Salas's eyes. Everything was ready; all he had to do was dig out the buried potion and he could kill Salas.
The crowd began to stir, and whispers filled the air.
Ye Hua could tell clearly that several figures were particularly active in the crowd; they must be Salas's men!
Salas, feeling smug, was about to launch a forceful search when he was interrupted once again.
"Etc!"
Huo Wu dragged her brother along, panting as they ran.
"Bishop Salas, I can testify that the person who saved me that night was Ye Hua."
Huo Wushuang also explained, "If Teacher Ye was an accomplice, then why did he personally arrest Ma Hongjun?"
"Yes," Salas chuckled, "I'm curious too, but the clues do point to him."
"If they are innocent, what's wrong with letting this old man go in and search them?"
"That's not right!" Huo Wushuang frowned. "How can you conduct a search arbitrarily without evidence?"
"What?" Salas's face darkened. "Are you also going to obstruct the Spirit Hall's work?"
Huo Wu didn't back down at all. "Bishop Salas, what's with that look? Are you threatening us?"
"Who threatened me?"
Just as Salas was about to reprimand them, he heard the voice he least wanted to hear.
[Xue Qinghe] walked slowly over, and Salas's face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
"Bishop, you have quite the airs! Ye Hua is someone I specially hired; he's the hero who solved the rape and murder case!"
"Why don't you come and search the Eastern Palace? After all, we're close friends, we're birds of a feather!"
"So it's Your Highness." Salas forced a smile.
Qian Renxue walked to Ye Hua's side, "I know Ye Hua's background better than anyone."
"Is Bishop Salas's doubt about him a questioning of His Highness's judgment?"
Salas's lips twitched. "Your Highness, I truly do not trust you."
"You've been investigating the Long Night Alliance for months, and you haven't even found a trace of them. Your abilities are truly worrying."
"Why don't you abdicate and let another prince become the Crown Prince?"
Qian Renxue was stunned. She hadn't expected that, as a fellow member of the Spirit Hall, she could infiltrate the organization for the greater good and temporarily avoid becoming enemies with that woman.
Salas, as a high-ranking member of the Spirit Hall, disregarded everything and directly attacked her position Crown Prince!
Salas snorted coldly, ignoring Qian Renxue, and turned to look at Ye Hua.
"Ye Hua, what's wrong? Are you afraid of being investigated?"
Ye Hua shrugged. "What if we can't find out?"
"Can't find anything?" Salas sneered. "What do you suggest we do?"
Ye Hua said casually, "Three Thousand-Year Spirit Bone, with a total age of no less than ten thousand years."
hiss--
Not to mention the onlookers, even Salas gasped in shock!
As one of the four Platinum Bishop, Salas could certainly produce Thousand-Year Spirit Bone.
But if the total age exceeds ten thousand years, it would be a huge drain on his resources!
"What? Afraid of the financial pain? Not confident?" Ye Hua retorted.
"Fine!" Salas gritted his teeth. "It's a deal!"
If they can find the buried medicine, the bet is nothing but a joke!
Even if Ye Hua is powerful, he's only Soul King, while I sent Soul Saint to infiltrate and plant the potion...
Shouldn't be a problem?
Ye Hua definitely won't find out!
Thinking of this, Salas felt a little relieved.
"Furthermore," Ye Hua continued, "Only you and Xue-xiong can go in to investigate; everyone else should wait outside."
Salas asked, puzzled, "Why?"
"With so many people involved, what if someone frames me? Who can I turn to for justice?"
Salas hesitated for a moment, then finally agreed, "Okay!"
Ye Hua pushed open the villa door and gestured for him to enter.
Salas and Qian Renxue walked into the courtyard side by side.
Salas pretended to look around, flipping through things and searching.
Finally, we arrived at the pre-buried location!
Seeing the fresh soil with signs of being turned over, Salas felt a weight lifted from his shoulders.
Hahaha!
I've caught you!
Hehehe, Ye Hua, you're finished!
With absolute confidence, Salas used his Soul Power to break through the soil.
One cent, one fen, one inch, one foot...
Long fingernails, long index finger, long forearm, long arm...
Dig a pit deep enough to bury someone up to their waist!
Salas was sweating, and his fine clothes were stained with mud.
Good heavens, are my subordinates really that cautious?
Was it buried deep to avoid being discovered?
Salas took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat and slowly dug up his head.
Unaware that Ye Hua had brought out ice cream, he and Qian Renxue were watching from behind.
Huff! Huff! Huff!
The pit was dug deep enough to cover an adult's head.
Still no medicine!
Salas fell silent.
But he was caught in a dilemma, and had no choice but to persevere.
finally--
Bang!!!
There's movement!
It must be a metal box used to store medicine!
Salas was overjoyed and jumped right in to take out the metal box.
"Hahahaha!" Salas raised the tin box and laughed wildly, "Ye Hua! Are you still going to deny it!"
After saying that, he rushed out of the courtyard gate and showed the evidence to the crowd, saying, "Look at this! This is the evidence!"
The entire audience erupted in uproar.
Ye Hua and Qian Renxue walked out, each with an ice cream in their mouths.
"Ye Hua, surrender!"
Salas ordered his men to arrest people.
"Wait!" Ye Hua swallowed the ice cream in one gulp.
"Haven't you had enough yet?" Salas asked with a mocking expression.
Ye Hua returned a look as if he were an idiot, "Why don't you open the iron box and take a look?"
Salas's heart skipped a beat when he saw Salas's calm expression.
He looked down at the metal box and slowly reached out to open the lid.
The moment the box lid was opened, a flash of golden light appeared!
Everyone present covered their eyes.
Salas swallowed hard. "This is..."
Boom!!!
The tin box exploded!
Ultimate Douluo's Soul Power erupts!
"Ughhhhhh!"
Salas successfully took to the skies.
After spinning in the air for a while, it crashed heavily into a pile of garbage.
Clang!
The metal box fell to the ground.
The clown's head pops out with a spring.
"The Joker! The Joker! The Joker!"
