Chapter 261: No Capital Punishment

heart, he...""That's exactly what I mean!" Lu Tian interrupted her. "I despise people who like to act.""What do you mean no rank! All soldiers except recruits have a rank, that's common sense!""Look..."Do you know what crime the Yuan family committed" The judge asked calmly.

"I don't care about the Yuan family's affairs. All I know is that the culprit has been brought to justice, so this case is closed!" Tan Mingwang responded in a deep voice.

"Tsk tsk, hearing you speak like that, you don't sound like someone from the Imperial Guard, more like someone from the Heavenly Bureau!" The Judge spoke again: "However, I'm sorry, your command doesn't work on me!"

"Presumptuous!" A man behind Tan Mingwang shouted, "To speak to Sir Tan like that, you are audacious!"

"Don't even talk about you, even if the leader of your Shadow Gate was here, he would have to be polite and greet Lord Tan!"

"Is that so" At this time, Ling Hao's voice came from the martial arts hall.

“Big brother, you’re awake” The judge grinned and walked over.

He purposely delayed for half an hour before, just so his older brother could sleep in a bit more. He knew that his older brother didn't sleep well every night when he returned to Dongzhou from out of town.

After all, a newlywed is always so happy!

That's very thoughtful!

"Itchy" Ling Hao glanced at him.

How could he possibly be asleep He's discussing alchemy with Xuan Pang.

"Huh!" At the moment he saw Ling Hao, Tan Mingwang's pupils instantly shrank to the size of pinpricks, and his whole body trembled involuntarily.

He may not know the Judge of the Underworld, but how could he not know King Xi

He never thought that this matter would actually alarm King Xi himself to come in person. A feeling of unease arose in his heart.

"Who are you" the man sized up Ling Hao before him, his voice sharp and unfriendly.

Slap!

Before the words could leave his lips, Tan Mingwang slapped him to the ground, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.

Subsequently, Tan Mingwang strode quickly to Ling Hao's side and bowed deeply: "Jibingsi Tan Mingwang, I greet King Xi Ling Shuai!"

Click!

Knock! Knock! Knock!

As soon as he said that, the crowd went limp again, their hearts racing once more after just calming down.

This person is actually the King of the West, Ling Shuai!

Is this supposed to scare people

While Yuan Chi and the other core members of the Yuan family heard this, their faces were filled with deep despair.

It's actually General Xi Wangling!

The Yuan family is doomed!

Yuan Chi then seemed to age decades overnight. He was acutely aware that even if it were Tan Mingwang himself who had appeared, or even the old man he had called, it was likely too late to save the Yuan family.

Xi Wang is a talented military commander, a national treasure, the most favored minister in the capital city, and the pillar of strength of the Daxi Kingdom. How could someone with such talent submit to authority!

Moreover, today's incident is entirely his Yuan family's own doing!

Including Tan Mingwang and the few people he brought, trembled uncontrollably upon hearing this.

They knew, after all, that Wang Hongliang, the fifth-ranked official in the Imperial Guard, was the one ordered by the Western King to be executed.

And after the incident, no one in the entire city dared to speak up for Wang Hongliang, so he died in vain!

"First, tell me, what do you truly know about the truth of this matter" Ling Hao looked at Tan Mingwang and spoke in a calm tone.

"I," Tan Mingwang took a deep breath and then told him everything he had learned.

"You should be thankful you don't know the truth!" After hearing the other person's words, Ling Hao's eyes narrowed slightly.

Of course, he wanted to see if Tan Mingwang knew the truth.

If you know, and still dare to show your face, then Tan Mingwang won't have to return to the capital today!

"Judge, let him hear the truth!" Ling Hao turned to face the judge and spoke.

"Received!" The Judge took out his phone and played the recording from before.

"Yuan Chi, you old bastard, you dare to deceive us! I'll cut you down!" After listening to the recording, Tan Mingwang roared angrily.

Then, he took the sword from a retainer's hand and slashed directly.

"Don't!"

Yuan Che exclaimed in surprise and rushed to his father.

>

But before he could even get close, a blade flashed from Yuan Chi's neck, and his head soared into the air.

Boom!

Yuan Chi's headless body fell straight down.

In that moment, I was filled with immeasurable regret.

Because of Yuan Qing, the entire Yuan family was implicated. What a self-inflicted disaster!

“Father!” Yuan Che cried out in pain, collapsing again.

The rest of the Yuan family members also collapsed to the ground, trembling all over, with cold sweat dripping down their faces.

"Ling Shuai, I'm so sorry. I didn't know this old bastard dared to fabricate facts. I'm truly sorry!" After killing Yuan Chi with a single stroke, Tan Mingwang quickly walked up to Ling Hao and bowed deeply.

At this moment, he had a surge of impulse to beat Yuan Chi to death! At the same time, a trace of fear crept into his heart.

He knew very well that by sparing Xi Wang, the other party had indirectly spared his life.

Otherwise, the other party could completely avoid showing up so soon and needn't tell him the truth of the matter. They could wait until he formally attacked Yingmen, and then his crimes would be confirmed.

Whoever hinders the investigation of Shadow Gate will be treated as an accomplice and executed!

"If I'm not here today, will the Yuan family be able to save themselves" Ling Hao spoke again, his tone as calm as ever.

Whew!

Tan Mingwang let out a long, turbid breath and his eyes flashed with determination. With a flick of his wrist, he drew his sword and slashed at his own left arm.

Boom!

After the blade flashed, an arm fell to the ground, blood spurting wildly.

"Sir!" Ten members of the Imperial Guard exclaimed in unison.

"Please... have mercy, Lord Ling!" Tan Mingwang gritted his teeth and looked at Ling Hao, opening his mouth.

He naturally understood that today, there was no possibility of him escaping unscathed. He might escape the death penalty, but a life sentence was unavoidable!

Although Ling Hao spared his life, he needs to give an explanation!

He made a big fuss and came to ask for forgiveness, but when he found out he was wrong, he left unharmed with his men. What did he think of the King of the West

"Judge, let's get this done!" Ling Hao ignored Tan Mingwang and looked at the Judge, giving a solemn instruction.

"Received!" the judge boomed in response.

Then, turning to face the thousand disciples of the Shadow Gate, he boomed: "Take away all members of the Yuan family!"

"Yes, sir!" everyone chorused.

Half an hour later, Ling Hao and his two companions drove east to Dongzhou.

"Big brother, if my memory serves me right, Tan Mingwang should be from the Duchengmen clan, right Why let him go"

The judge, of course, knew that Ling Hao had intentionally spared the other party's life.

Otherwise, Tam Ming-wang would certainly be dead today!

"As for those in the Imperial Guard, apart from Wang Hongliang, the others are barely passable." Ling Hao said lightly.

Tan Mingwang is guilty, but the crime does not deserve death!

"Understood!" the Judge nodded.h. Mid-air, Leng Yue's curved blade slashed out a perfect arc."Hmm!" Sensing the power of the judge's blade, the man's pupils constricted.He felt a thick sense of killing intent enveloping him, and h...
