Enforcement Disciples (First Update, Please Bookmark)

As for Hu Donghan, when he saw Mu Zhengfeng and Wang Linshu, he let out a soft sigh. They've finally come.

That clown-like figure had finally been unable to bear the loneliness and come running to his own death. And judging by the look of things, he had even dragged five others along to die with him.

Before the Outer Affairs Hall, Mu Zhengfeng's single remark had already caused quite a few cultivators nearby to stop and watch with curiosity.

Though the three enforcement disciples disdained to keep company with Mu Zhengfeng, once they had confirmed their target, they still swiftly approached Hu Donghan and asked coldly, "Are you Hu Donghan?"

Hu Donghan was unafraid. He nodded and said, "That's right. I am Hu Donghan."

"Good. Wang Linshu, an outer sect disciple of Overlapping Peaks, accuses you of using spells to attack him at Lonely Soul Ridge. Is this true? Outer sect disciple Mu Zhengfeng also accuses you of dragging him into your room three days ago, beating him, and injuring him with spiritual power. Is this true?" one enforcement disciple demanded coldly.

Before Hu Donghan could answer, Mu Zhengfeng leaped out again like a clown, shouting smugly, "Hahaha! Hu Donghan, are you scared now? If you kneel, kowtow, and beg for mercy, maybe I'll spare you this once!"

Idiot!

Almost every cultivator present had those two words rise in their hearts—what did he mean by saying that now? What was this about "kowtowing and begging for mercy" so that he would "spare him this once"? He made it sound as though he were some spoiled young master, and everyone around him was a pack of lackeys he had summoned.

The three enforcement disciples were even more enraged upon hearing this. The three of them had only come here as a favor, yet with Mu Zhengfeng's words, what had he made enforcement disciples out to be? One of them directly slapped Mu Zhengfeng across the face, undisguised mad killing intent flashing in his eyes as he said coldly, "Shut up!"

That slap left Mu Zhengfeng completely dazed. He opened his mouth, still wanting to say something, but the Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivator had already reached out and seized his throat. That same chilling voice sounded beside his ear. "Shut the hell up!"

As soon as those words fell, Mu Zhengfeng shuddered and finally came back to his senses, closing his mouth completely. This Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivator was Mu Zhengfeng's clan cousin, Mu Ming.

Though Mu Ming was called Mu Zhengfeng's clan cousin, he was not from the direct line within Mu Zhengfeng's Mu Household, and his status was not particularly high. Only after Mu Ming relied on bitter cultivation and a few fortuitous encounters to become an inner sect disciple of the Yin Soul Sect did he finally draw the Mu Household's attention. Naturally, once he had attained a certain level of cultivation, he no longer wished to maintain contact with the Mu Household. This time, when Mu Zhengfeng asked Mu Ming to help deal with Hu Donghan, the condition was that Mu Ming would leave the Lineage after the matter was settled. Otherwise, why would a Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivator like Mu Ming involve himself in a dispute between two Qi Refinement Early Stage disciples?

Of course, poor Mu Ming had no idea just how vast a mire Mu Zhengfeng had dragged him into.

Hu Donghan smiled as he watched the farce before him. Only after it settled down did he answer, "That day, I was hunting ghosts in Lonely Soul Ridge when Senior Brother Wang Linshu suddenly appeared behind me. I thought he was a ghostly creature, so I attacked. As for Mu Zhengfeng's accusation, it is utterly false! Mu Zhengfeng suddenly barged into my room and spoke rudely. I merely taught him a lesson with my fists and feet. I did not use spiritual power."

After speaking, Hu Donghan chuckled lightly at Mu Zhengfeng. "Mu Zhengfeng, I didn't expect you to have recovered so well! In just three days, all the injuries on your body have healed?"

With those words, Hu Donghan was naturally pointing out to the three enforcement disciples that injuries inflicted with spiritual power were internal injuries. Generally speaking, ordinary healing medicine could not treat such internal injuries; only specialized medicine would work. Since Mu Zhengfeng could stand here looking perfectly fine, Hu Donghan naturally had not used spiritual power.

As soon as Hu Donghan finished speaking, the enforcement disciple frowned and said, "Who told you to say so much? I am only asking whether these things happened."

To put it bluntly, this enforcement disciple had been brought here by Mu Ming to take their side. Now that he had heard Hu Donghan's spell attack and beating of another person were both true, he could not be bothered to ask about the reasons—in the Yin Soul Sect, if you dared to use spells against someone, you would be punished. That was an iron-clad rule!

Yet Hu Donghan did not answer that question. Instead, he asked, "Martial Uncle, this junior has heard that enforcement disciples uphold the law with strictness, following the rules in every matter and investigating thoroughly. Why does Martial Uncle only question this junior, but not the other two parties involved?"

The moment Hu Donghan said this, not only were the onlookers around him stunned, even the four enforcement disciples who had originally been guarding the entrance to the Outer Affairs Hall frowned and gathered around Hu Donghan—wasn't the meaning behind Hu Donghan's words that enforcement disciples handled matters unfairly?

Hu Donghan's words were simply a provocation against every enforcement disciple in the Enforcement Hall!

The enforcement disciple stared at Hu Donghan for a long while before speaking again. "Fine. You are right." Then he turned to Mu Zhengfeng and Wang Linshu. "The two of you, do you have any objection to what Hu Donghan said?"

Though this enforcement disciple questioned Mu Zhengfeng and Wang Linshu as Hu Donghan had requested, the cultivators around them all understood that this enforcement disciple was truly furious!

The gazes of the surrounding onlookers toward Hu Donghan grew increasingly pitying—this poor child was clearly too young and had no idea how things worked! You wanted them to question the others, so they questioned them once. Would it make any difference to the final result? In the end, these enforcement disciples would still have the final say. Now that he had offended them so badly, he would definitely be the one to suffer!

At Lonely Soul Ridge last time, Hu Donghan had offended Wang Linshu terribly. Seeing now that Hu Donghan even dared to offend enforcement disciples, Wang Linshu immediately felt that the boy was finished. He promptly gave Hu Donghan another shove toward disaster, nodding as he said, "Martial Uncle, your judgment is clear. Back then, this junior was clearly approaching Hu Donghan from directly in front of him, yet this boy immediately attacked this junior with a spell. He must have intended to strike suddenly, kill this junior, and seize the treasures on this junior's person!"

As soon as Wang Linshu finished speaking, everyone around them rolled their eyes—Wang Linshu was at the late stage of Qi Refinement, while Hu Donghan was only at the first level of Qi Refinement, yet he claimed Hu Donghan wanted to kill him for treasure? That slander was far too severe! Still, given the current situation, even slander would likely become reality.

As for Mu Zhengfeng, he immediately added fuel to the flames. "Enforcement Martial Uncle, I was merely passing by his door when he seized me without distinguishing black from white, dragged me inside, and gave me a brutal beating with spiritual power. The reason my injuries healed so quickly is that I asked my clan cousin for a bottle of healing medicine."

After Mu Zhengfeng spoke, he even waved his fist at Hu Donghan, baring his teeth. "Trash, you're dead!"
