Chapter 597 - 590 Maid Miaoo Yu
Ye Zhen’s maid, Hundred Herbs, had died—which, ordinarily, within the Martial Artist Spirit Institute of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect, wasn’t an uncommon occurrence. Furthermore, due to the disparity in status, even if more maids died within the institute, nobody would bother to inquire.
However, the timing of Hundred Herbs’ death under Ye Zhen’s service was too coincidental, especially since it happened last night when the leak of the Defense Map occurred, and she died unnaturally!
Therefore, the deacons of the Punishment Hall came knocking.
After all, this was still the aftermath of last night’s incident. Even though the Sun and Moon Divine Sect didn’t suffer much loss last night, there were still many unsolved mysteries, such as who really killed Liu Hong... among others, hence the Punishment Hall had to continue their investigation.
It just so happened that today, Qingyue Feng reported the unnatural death of Hundred Herbs, and the deacons of the Punishment Hall sniffed out something and came knocking.
Those guys from the Punishment Hall, with their deadpan faces, weren’t they just Evil Guests?
Even when questioning Ye Zhen in the company of Qingyue Feng, they were still ferociously intimidating. Their demeanor seemed as if they wanted to conduct a Soul Search on Ye Zhen right away and strip out all his secrets.
However, all they could do was ask questions.
The death of a maid really couldn’t implicate much, especially since Ye Zhen had notified Qingyue Feng, the Moonlight Hall Master, at the first opportunity; from a procedural standpoint, nothing was amiss.
What alarmed Ye Zhen was that the Punishment Hall’s capability was truly not minor; this investigation was extremely meticulous. They even discovered that Ye Zhen had gone out last night.
