Chapter 19: Intervention
Not to mention him, even Wu Jinliang suddenly reacted, shouting loudly: "Chuntian, someone's trying to frame us!"
Having a loud voice was useless. The leading armored soldier waved a hand, and immediately two men rushed out to seize Shi Chun.
Shi Chun’s face was dark, but he didn’t resist or try to escape. He knew resistance was futile; these armored soldiers were all High Martial cultivators at a minimum, and he was no match for any one of them.
Resisting in Zhixu City would only lead to a worse outcome, so he could only allow himself to be apprehended, being forcefully dragged down the steps.
However, he still had to defend himself, stating earnestly: “We don’t know this ruffian, nor have we stolen anything from him.
He is slandering us. I hope the heavenly generals will see clearly.”
But the Grimy Man shouted: “It must have been them who stole it! After they bumped into me, my Blue Jade Essence disappeared!”
The leading armored soldier waved his hand, “Search them!”
His subordinates immediately got to work, publicly frisking Shi Chun and Wu Jinliang. As a result, no suspicious items were found on either of them.
