The Ninth Lady is a rebellious person.

Chapter 349 Lang Jiu threw a talisman at him
They defied the rules and committed the crime.

This word made the eyes of several Xuan clans jump, and they all looked at Gong Qi. Whose side are you on? Shouldn't you be protecting your own people?

Lou Shan, the official who had been panting heavily, suddenly straightened up, raised his head and pushed aside the Xuanmen people, saying, "Who, who is using Xuanmen Taoist arts to harm ordinary people? This is the work of evil. You are all members of the righteous Xuanmen, are you trying to turn from righteous to evil?"

Lang Jiuchuan glanced at the man and thought to himself that this official under the Censorate was probably chosen by Shen Qinghe because his birth date and time were strong enough, in case he was afraid that he would not be strong enough in the future when he encountered some strange and difficult cases.
This man was burly, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a square face. He exuded righteousness and seemed like a man of strong character.

"My lord, my daughter wants to sue this man, Lu Youan, a member of the Rong family of the Xuan clan, for using evil arts to harm my mother." Lang Jiuchuan pointed to Lu Youan's waist: "The thing hanging on his waist is the Three Yin Soul Bell, which has been tempered in an extremely evil place. Shaking this bell can draw in evil energy into the human body, damaging the soul and harming the body."

Lu Youan's pupils contracted. How could she know the name of this magical artifact? When her master gave it to her, he said that it was a magical artifact bestowed upon the elders by the Rong family. As long as she mastered the Taoist arts and made contributions to the Rong family in the future, she would also receive rare and precious materials, magical artifacts, and elixirs.

But how could she know?
Yes, how did Lang Jiuchuan know? When she saw the soul bell at his waist, the name of this magical artifact automatically flashed through her mind. She must have seen it somewhere before.

Judging from Lu Youan's expression now, she guessed right!
Lou Shan's eyes flashed with a sharp light as he looked at Gong Qi and said, "Fellow Daoist Gong, we 'not very useful' scholars don't know how to use magic artifacts. However, regardless of whether we are scholars or members of the Xuanmen sect, since we are all serving in the Supervisory Bureau, the principle of the Supervisory Bureau is to act fairly and impartially. What do you say? The idea that Yin Sha Qi enters the body, damaging the soul and harming the body is simply horrifying. If we allow it to use Xuanshu to do whatever it wants, using magic to teach anyone it doesn't like a lesson, how can ordinary people resist? Wouldn't this world be in chaos?"

Lord Shen said that the Supervisory Commission has just been established and must quickly establish its authority and increase the public's trust in it. They have been idle for a while, but now, a chicken has finally run into the knife. Why not boil water, pluck its feathers, and bleed it?
Ma Cheng took two steps back, cursing his bad luck. He regretted getting involved in this mess and was now going to be implicated.

Before Gong Qi could speak, Daoist Changqing from the Rong family said in a deep voice, "Junior Brother Lu, is this true? Or is there some misunderstanding, and who was accidentally injured?"

Lang Jiuchuan sneered, "Accidental injury? You'll regret it later!"
Gong Qi narrowed his eyes and said, "Whether it is or not, we'll know once we see Madam Lang."

Lang Jiuchuan said coolly, "The Yin Sha technique within my mother's body has been broken, which is why this Daoist Lu suffered a backlash. Look at how he's been ravaged by the backlash, it's truly pitiful! However, whether my mother was affected by the technique or not, you are all outstanding members of the Xuan Clan, you should be able to tell at a glance, and you will not show favoritism!"

Lu Youan's eyes were bloodshot: "!"

This damn fertilizer is awful!

Gong Qi: "..."

That sounds incredibly ironic!
He coughed and said, "In that case, let's go take a look..."

"No need!" Lu Youan said, "The evil spirits surrounding Madam Lang were indeed caused by me, but I did not do it on purpose. I accidentally injured her. At that time, I saw evil spirits following Madam Lang and feared that they would harm people. I couldn't help but act and that's why I accidentally injured her!"

Thanks to Senior Brother Changqing's reminder, he just wouldn't admit it was intentional. So what if it really happened? Who can prove it was an accident?

Lang Jiuchuan's eyes were cold. He really knows how to make excuses!

Lou Shan's face turned green. Could he really get away with the crime of harming people with his skills by simply saying it was an accident?
Lang Jiuchuan looked at the silent, quail-like Master Xuanming and said, "I never imagined that the dignified Huguo Temple, with its countless worshippers and flourishing incense offerings, would be so compassionate, treating all living beings equally. With its gates wide open, what kind of demons and monsters could roam freely within its walls? The Buddha and Bodhisattvas of Huguo Temple are truly compassionate!"

Everyone: "..."

Even the most monastic Master Xuanming couldn't maintain his composure any longer. Was she openly criticizing Huguo Temple as a fake Buddhist temple?

For evil spirits to roam freely in a temple is incredibly audacious; they are treating the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas within as if they were nothing. Before the others could react, Lang Jiuchuan cast a cold glance at Lu Youan, a wicked smile playing on her lips, and said, "My Buddha is merciful, but I cannot bear to see evil spirits harm people. Fellow Daoist Lu, be careful!"

When Lu Youan saw her wicked appearance, his pupils contracted sharply, and he realized that it was too late.

Lang Jiu threw a talisman at him!

boom.

Lu Youan let out a scream.

That was a thunder talisman.

Lu Youan suddenly collapsed to the ground.

"How dare you injure people!" Master Changqing shouted sternly, taking a step forward to grab Lang Jiuchuan.

Just as Gong Qi moved, Lang Jiuchuan, holding a talisman brush, tapped Changqing Daoist's arm, took a few steps back, and feigned innocence, saying, "What does Daoist intend to do? I was only trying to prevent evil spirits from harming Fellow Daoist Lu, so I had no choice but to take action. I didn't expect to accidentally injure him. Alas, it's because my skills are not yet proficient!"

Everyone's lips twitched as they looked at Lu Youan, who was lying on the ground, his clothes torn and barely covering his body, his hair singed and his skin torn open, blasted by the lightning talisman. Are you sure this is an accidental injury?
Master Changqing stared at Lang Jiuchuan in shock, pressing his numb right arm with his left hand and silently reciting a calming mantra to soothe the turbulent meridians caused by the shock of the qi. He looked at the talisman pen she was playing with with great apprehension.

With just one tap of that unknown magical artifact, he felt an immense power surge towards him. His right hand went numb and lost all feeling, as if it had frozen, not to mention the surging of his blood and qi.

This woman is extraordinary!

Lang Jiuchuan met his gaze coldly.

"You, you've committed this crime in front of the Censorate! How dare you!" Another member of the Xuanmen sect, presumably from the Feng family, roared with a dark face, "Lord Lou, why haven't you arrested this thug yet?"

Lou Shan blinked and said, "But she said it was to exorcise evil spirits, and that it was just an accidental injury to others."

The man was so angry that his eyes almost bulged out. He stomped his feet and said, "Nonsense! Where would any evil spirits come from in a temple? She was clearly trying to hurt people."

Chang Qing and Xuan Ming suddenly felt dizzy; something was wrong.

Lou Shan is amazing! Since you put it that way, I have something to say.

He pointed at Lu Youan, who was lying on the ground barely alive after being blasted, and said, "Didn't he also say that there was an evil spirit following Lady Lang, which is why he attacked and accidentally injured her? So he was just talking nonsense? Arrest him!"

Ah this...

The Feng family member felt a chill run down his spine. He looked at his own people and asked, "Do you believe me if I truly stand on the side of the Xuan Clan?"
