And in Qingzhou, although not as strict as the Capital, the crime was still considered very serious if the Liushan Division really decided to investigate.

As they left the medical clinic, Jiang Shouzhong said to Li Nanshuang, "Right now, it seems that Mr. Xu must have ingested Demon Energy."
Li Nanshuang asked tentatively, "Then should we..."
Jiang Shouzhong said, "There are two possibilities. First, Mr. Xu made a deal with someone involving Demon Energy on the condition of loaning out his sword. But with Mr. Xu’s connections, getting a bottle of Demon Energy would be quite easy for him.
Secondly, someone from the Liushan Division discovered Mr. Xu’s use of Demon Energy and threatened him with it, forcing Mr. Xu to loan out his treasured sword. After all, the crimes of ingesting and secretly hoarding Demon Energy are very serious."
Li Nanshuang’s bright eyes tensed, "Then it must be the second one, someone from the Liushan Division threatened Mr. Xu."
Jiang Shouzhong nodded faintly, "And this person must hold a high position. If it were just an ordinary member of the Liushan Division, with Mr. Xu’s underworld boss character, he could’ve risked dealing with the person directly.
But Mr. Xu did not do that; instead, he obediently loaned out the sword he cherished as much as a wife, which indicates that the person’s status has instilled fear in Mr. Xu, making him afraid to act against him."
