“Defend the Chi M. I am sure the Nan Clan will definitely find us,” Nan Ling muttered sadly hearing the hysterical screams from Nan Chi who was being raped by the skinny bandit.
While walking towards the cave where the bandit Boss was located, Nan Ling was confused as to why the girls who were kidnapped with them were not seen anymore. He guessed it was possible that they had been killed or sold to a brothel.
Nan Ling cupped his fists to show respect to the two bandits guarding at the entrance of the cave. “I was ordered to serve tuan—”
“Come in and no need to mince words!” sahut one of the bandits with a thin grin emanated from the corner of his lips.
“Hopefully the Boss managed to break through to the Paramita realm, this is already the Twenty-Nine trial... if it doesn't work anymore and we kidnap the other girls again then I'm afraid the Emperor will get angry and order the military to hunt us down!” the other bandit.
“Hopefully they still consider this incident as a normal criminal act and reportedly I heard that the Boss has reached the Saint Peak realm, I'm sure with just a few sacrifices the Boss has managed to break through to the Paramita realm!”
Nan Ling was surprised to hear the conversation of the two bandits. His heart beat thumped and finally understood why the girls he had kidnapped with him disappeared.
“Hei stupid girl! Why are you pecking there, quickly go inside!” reprimand one of the bandits because Nan Ling stopped walking.
Hesitatingly Nan Ling walked to the deepest part of the cave and saw the figure of a handsome Man who looked like he was three Tens years old sitting cross-legged.
The handsome man sensed Nan Ling's existence, he then flicked his finger and suddenly Nan Ling's neck had been gripped by the bandit Boss.
Nan Ling widened her eyes due to breathing difficulties and was about to beg for forgiveness, but just as the intent was seething in his mind he suddenly felt a sensation of pain from his chest and the handsome man smirked evilly looking at the still-beating Heart in his left hand.
“Sorry Nan Chi... Hope someone saves you,” Nan Ling murmured before her gaze suddenly darkened. “Dad... mother..pardon Linger for having to leave this World first, may in the next life we meet again.”
Nan Ling's body was burned by the spiritual energy of the Flame Boss Bandit to a grain of dust, then the bandit Boss swallowed up Nan Ling's Heart and practiced cultivation in order to break through to the Paramita Realm.
It used to be that he only needed the Twenty Hearts of young women to break through from the Tianzun realm to the Saint realm, now he hoped that it would not take many young lady Hearts to break through to the Paramita realm.
...***...
Zhao Jian and Nan Yue entered Nandong City and the Swordsman of the Nan Clan who was guarding the entrance gate instantly smiled widely seeing Nan Yue finally come along with the members of the Immortal Sword Sect.
“Aunt Yue.. It's a pity that you came late, Nandong City Court has managed to catch the bandits who kidnapped your daughter, but it's a pity that your daughter can't be saved!” exclaim the Swordsman of the Nan Clan.
“Whataaaaaaaaa?” Nan Yue was surprised to hear that, her tears were unstoppable again. She cried hysterically while shouting her daughter's name.
“Let's calm aunt Yue.. Before we see your daughter's body then we can't believe the news, it's no secret that the Court or the Clans often manipulate a case!” sela Zhao Jian comforted Nan Yue not to be saddened to hear the news even though she was also unsure whether Princess Nan Yue was alive or dead.
“You brat! How dare you slander the Court!” the Swordsman of the Nan Clan stared intently at Zhao Jian.
“Hey, don't provoke that Eternal Sword Sect member, do you want to make the Nan Clan destroyed?” interrupted the other Swordsman of the Nan Clan as he sensed the Aura of the Saint realm from the Youth on top of the Heavenly Rooster Beast's back.
“Hmm, looks like you don't know me, huh?” sahut Zhao Jian glanced at that Swordsman of the Nan Clan and suddenly he felt a choking sensation on his neck.
“Young master please forgive us!” The other swordsman immediately prostrated himself begging for forgiveness so that the residents who passed by in the city gate were surprised to see him and began to speculate about what happened.
Zhao Jian dissipated his spiritual energy which made the Swordsman of the Nan Clan feel suffocated. “The future works well.. Remember that the second chance is rare.”.
“Thank you young master... we will not repeat it again!” The two Swordsmen of the Nan Clan cupped fists to show respect.
Zhao Jian only gave a cold snort and continued on his way into Nandong City. The goal is the courthouse.
Nan Yue was just daydreaming on the back of the Rooster, she kept thinking about the fate of her Daughter.
“Please wait a moment here aunt Yue, I will ask the Court about your daughter!” zhao Jian exclaimed out Nan Yue's daydream.
He then entered the courthouse, as he wore the Cloak of the Immortal Sword Sect——Judges of the Nandong City branch court immediately welcomed his arrival.
The judge smiled broadly as he cupped his fists to show respect. “Can we help young master?” sapana.
“Where are the bandit captives who kidnapped the girls in Black Fern Village?” sahut Zhao Jian with a flat face expression.
The judge frowned and felt Zhao Jian was arrogant once, but he kept smiling and replied, “That case has been closed and we have executed them!”
“So like that,” said Zhao Jian with the corner of the lips exuding a thin grin staring at the fat and thick mustachioed Judge.
Somehow the Judge felt Zhao Jian was looking down on him. He cursed Zhao Jian in his mind and just smiled.
“Gather Ten Court Officers within Fifty breaths and I wait for them in the courthouse yard, Court building, if it is too late then all Court Officers and Judges in Nandong City will be fired and severely punished!” zhao Jian exclaimed as he showed the golden-coloured Plaque.
“Judges from the Center?” The judge was shocked to see the Plaque shown by the Eternal Sword Sect's Youth. “Who exactly is this young man, how can he be a high-ranking Judge? Could it be that he was a family of Emperors or a large Clan?” he thought and directly told the Ten Court Officers to accompany Zhao Jian.
