“Ha-ha-ha.. You sure can become a Justice Enforcer with that Sword and that strange Book!” King Zhao Tian chuckled, unexpectedly Zhao Jian boasted before him.
Zhao Jian was bluffing his teeth, annoyed no one believed his words. Even his highly respected uncle laughed as well.
“This book will punish criminals fairly, can even judge a suspect of a crime case whether he is slandered or not!” zhao Jian exclaimed with a serious facial expression.
King Zhao Tian stopped laughing and frowned, he felt Zhao Jian did not seem to be boasting as he had expected.
Without being ordered by King Zhao Tian, Zhao Jian bit the tip of his little finger and dripped his blood into the Book of Justice.
Zhao Jian was quite confident, that he was a good man. The fatal mistake he made was only bribing the Royal Soldier at the gate of the great wall alone, and it was just a minor offense—which would not get him into Prison.
The Book of Justice gave off a dazzling light and the pages of the Book opened themselves, then came the inscription: The 15th of the second month of the twenty-fifth hundredth year of the Zhao Kingdom; Zhao Jian did the Penal— peeking at Liu Ruxu taking a bath while doing a joint mission. Punished by Whip 50 times for violating the Prohibition of the King number 106 Chapter 7, about the act of Asusilla peeping on the other party without permission.
“Eh?” Zhao Jian was surprised, why this was not about bribery.
Zhao Jian smiled wryly and said, “Does His Majesty or the venerable master want to drip a drop of blood also into this Book of Justice?”
Zhao Jian deliberately switched the conversation so that his shameful deeds were not discussed, because the main thing was that this Book of Justice was an indispensable tool by the Royal Judge.
However, King Zhao Tian and the others only frowned. Who would want their rotten secrets exposed, let alone not a secret anymore—kalupkan Corruption, Nepotism, and so on are ingrained in the Zhao Kingdom.
Zhao Tian let out a long sigh, he could not refuse Zhao Jian's request. However, he was also afraid that Zhao Jian would offend the powerful parties in the Zhao Kingdom and cause chaos and rebellion.
The Supreme Court Judge standing next to the King's throne immediately whispered to King Zhao Tian who immediately nodded slowly, while Zhao Jian looked forward to King Zhao Tian's decision who seemed reluctant to accept him as the Royal Judge.
“Do I do that way only? But I'm afraid they'll curse me later?” zhao Jian muttered hesitantly revealing his trump card.
“Ehemm ...” King Zhao Tian cleared his throat. “Alright, you will be the Judge who is directly under my supervision and you can only handle cases that do not involve the palace people, the high-ranking of the great Clans as well as their young masters, he said, and high military officer.”
Zhao Jian immediately cupped his fists, although he was not happy with the restrictions of his authority in dealing with such a matter. “Thanks Your Highness!”
The two Royal Court Officers standing behind the Supreme Court Judge immediately dragged Zhao Jian out of the palace.
“Please forgive me Your Majesty!” zhao Jian shouted, but King Zhao Tian ignored him and immediately got off his throne— took Zhao Tu, Uncle Zhao Jian to his private room with the Supreme Court Justice.
Zhao Jian looked at the Royal Court Officer dragging him, their cultivation base was Spirit realm and was the highest cultivation base possessed by martial arts experts in this Zhao Kingdom—because Zhao Kingdom had never conquered another Gui Dao for its Crystal Beasts to take, because with Crystal Beasts that a martial expert can break through to the higher Martial Lands.
“Uncle... please do gently, yes!” zhao Jian whispered as the Royal Court official took out the Whip that Ki was streaming, so it must have been very painful—given Zhao Jian's cultivation base was only the Stage At Level One Body Forging Realm only.
The Imperial Court official did not reply to Zhao Jian's words, instead swinging his Whip which landed hard on Zhao Jian's buttocks.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
The sound of Zhao Jian's cry echoed throughout the palace room and the shout only lasted three times, after which there was no sound of screaming heard anymore.
The Supreme Court judge frowned. “Pardon my men Your Majesty and Brother Tu. They do not know the identity of Zhao Jian, so treat him the same as ordinary criminals.”
Zhao Tu only smiled, while King Zhao Tian let out a long sigh. “What's wrong, maybe this will be a valuable experience for him. As long as you do not get deformed, the child's body is very weak from birth!”
“I make sure they won't get to that stage Your Majesty!” the Supreme Court Judge sent a telepathic voicemail to his subordinates to stop the sentence on Zhao Jian.
King Zhao Tian looked at Zhao Tu for an answer from where Zhao Jian got the Zhengyi Sword and the Book of Justice. He suspected there was a powerful martial expert hidden in his Zhao Clan who was secretly training Zhao Jian.
“He was stubborn from the past and would not reveal where he got the treasure from,” Zhao Tu— said who instantly knew what King Zhao Tian wanted to ask.
“Oh yes too, yes,” said King Zhao Tian let out a long sigh. “Give Zhao Jian, Five Imperial Court Officers of the Spirit realm and Fifteen Royal Officers Beginners. I guess that's enough to make him not act too wild!” he shouted at the Supreme Court.
“Good Your Majesty, I will arrange it!” sahut the Supreme Court.
