Chapter 67 Tit for Tat (Please subscribe)

"Wait a minute!"

Chen Xuan shouted loudly: "I'm here to resign today."

"What do you think of the sect's law enforcement hall? You can come and go as you please?"

Sima Cheng said grimly, "What are you still standing there for? Take down Chen Xuan!"

However, he soon realized that something was wrong.

"Ouch, my stomach hurts!"

"Oh no, my stomach hurts too!"

The two sect servants behind him found an excuse and ran out at a very fast speed, without any signs of stomachache.

Twenty-nine law enforcement captains, including some of his new confidants, sat there like puppets, seemingly not hearing his orders.

Two of them were closer and winked at him, as if hinting at something.

Sima Cheng was horrified.

He only knew that Chen Xuan had some skills, and seemed to have killed several monsters.

But that's about it.

A low-level casual cultivator, even if he has some ability to control insects, how strong can he be!

In a remote place like Qingyunfang City, the temple is small but the evil spirits are strong, and the pond is shallow but there are many turtles.

If a small person like Chen Xuan who disrespects his superiors were in a sect, he would have been suppressed long ago.

Little did they know that Chen Xuan had already predicted this situation.

Five strange insects appeared in the killing of monsters not long ago.

It’s okay for creatures like the Iron-backed Mantis and the Heavy-armored Cricket. They are open to attack and can be defended against no matter how powerful they are.

Things like the poisonous golden silkworm are truly terrifying, killing people without them even noticing.

There are also tens of thousands of jade-faced poisonous bees, which is creepy.

There are also demon insects like the psychic green snake that can single-handedly fight against high-grade demon beasts.

In the West City Law Enforcement Hall, Chen Xuan has become a legend.

The number one person in the Foundation Establishment Stage, although it may be an exaggeration, to receive such praise is also a recognition of his strength.

"Sir Steward, I have the guts to speak frankly. Chen Xuan is absolutely right. Don't worry about anonymous reports! Otherwise, no one will ever have peace!"

"We are law enforcement officers, so it's inevitable that we might offend some villains. Anonymous reports are definitely the work of villains, so don't pay any attention to them."

"I agree with that as well."

"I second the motion."

All of a sudden, most of the law enforcement captains expressed their opinions.

Chen Xuan still stood straight in the same place, appearing calm on the surface, but feeling happy inside.

Displaying the strange insects, killing the monsters, and distributing the monster meat, all the efforts were not in vain.

Even if you can't support him openly, at least you can't stand against him.

It doesn't depend on favor, but on strength.

Right or wrong is not important, strength is the source of others' respect for you.

A senior law enforcement captain walked up to Sima Cheng and whispered in his ear to persuade him.

Chen Xuan had sharp senses, and although the voice was small, he could hear it clearly.

"Master Steward, calm down. Chen Xuan is a man of unfathomable depth. If you push him too hard, it might end badly."

"I'm a deacon of the Law Enforcement Hall, and I can't punish him?"

"Let me put it this way. Rumor has it that Chen Xuan is the best person below the Foundation Establishment Stage in Qingyun Market."

"Nonsense! He's only at the sixth level of Qi training, and he dares to boast like that!"

"My Lord Steward! It's well known that Chen Xuan single-handedly killed six high-grade monsters, including the Red Flame Tiger and the Iron Earth Brown Bear. He was also aided by numerous rare insects, including tens of thousands of Jade-faced Venomous Bees!"

Sima Cheng took a breath of cold air.

Even he had no confidence of victory against tens of thousands of jade-faced poisonous bees.

No wonder these people are unwilling to offend Chen Xuan.

If he is really pushed into a corner, who knows what crazy things he will do.

If we do it on the spot.

Sima Cheng finally calmed down.

It would be fine if he could subdue Chen Xuan.

If Chen Xuan resisted and suppressed him instead, it would be a joke.

This kind of thing is not impossible. Sima Cheng still has some doubts in his heart.

He is just a casual cultivator at the sixth level of Qi training. Even if he has some skills in controlling insects, is there any need to be so wary of him?
Another close law enforcement captain clasped his fists and said loudly, "Your Excellency, please allow me to report this. Chen Xuan has made many contributions to the law enforcement team. He was originally working part-time on a voluntary basis, but now that family matters have arisen, he has voluntarily resigned. I would like your approval."

Others echoed.

"Even though Chen Xuan has no merit, he has worked hard. Please forgive him this time, sir!"

"This kind of wandering cultivator doesn't know the rules, so please don't bother with him!"

The spiritual energy in Sima Cheng's body fluctuated in disorder.

All the law enforcement captains under him stood on Chen Xuan's side.

Seeing that it was difficult to go against the public anger, he barely suppressed his anger and snorted coldly.

"Chen Xuan, since you don't want to be a clerk, then get out!"

Chen Xuan threw the resignation letter on the table, saluted the law enforcement captains, turned around and left.

After leaving the office, the law enforcement officers watching nearby made way for them.

"Captain Chen, are you really quitting your job?" Wang Fugui asked with regret.

"Chen Xuan, if you don't do it anymore, I won't do it anymore either!" Xiao Yuyao said generously.

"That's not necessary. I have no intention of serving as a clerk."

"Forget it, I won't do it either." Wang Fugui's chubby face showed a look of relief.

Li Pingan said dully, "I've had some insights recently, so I'm just concentrating on cultivation and accumulating breakthroughs."

Cai Jian said regretfully, "If none of you guys do it, there's no point in me doing it alone, so I won't do it either."

As a result, all members of the team resigned along with Chen Xuan.

"Just think it over." Chen Xuan smiled.

Chen Xuan felt somewhat warm in his heart about Wang Fugui and others' voluntary resignation.

Justice is in the heart of the people.

"Captain Chen Xuan, take care!" a team member suddenly shouted.

"Take care of yourself!"

"Take care of yourself!"

Many people shouted.

After Chen Xuan clasped his fists in return to everyone, he quickly disappeared from the West City Law Enforcement Hall.

Sima Cheng was in the office, and when he saw how popular Chen Xuan was, he became furious.

He knew that Chen Xuan was a powerful general of the previous deacon Tan Lun, but he didn't expect that he would be so powerful and put him in such an embarrassing situation.

All prestige was lost and face was humiliated.

It’s not like he didn’t give Chen Xuan a chance to jump ship.

What's wrong with asking you to present a strange insect?
Do I, Sima Cheng, really need a strange insect like you?
What matters is an attitude.

Not only was he not grateful, he also went against him.

Get sick!
He almost lost face because of the public rebuttal.

If they hadn't been afraid of his strange insect, they might not have been able to defeat him and would have captured him on the spot and sent him to prison to await trial.

I guess everyone in the West City Law Enforcement Hall is laughing at him.

I wonder if this will reach the ears of Elder Li in the main hall.

Thinking of this, Sima Cheng became even more upset.

This person cannot be kept!
Perhaps Sima Yan's death was also related to him.

I didn’t take it seriously before.

At first, the Sima family did not investigate further, thinking that a casual cultivator at the fourth level of Qi training was too weak to be involved in the fight between the Xu and Sima families.

Now that I think about it, even if you are at the fourth level of Qi training, as long as you have a powerful strange insect in your hand, you should not underestimate it.

After only three months, he had already won over all the staff of the West City Law Enforcement Hall.

Even he couldn't help but admire such a method.

The more capable a person was and the more he refused to join him, the angrier Sima Cheng became.

It's not just him who is embarrassed, but also the Sima family.

If he can't get back at Sima Cheng, how will he order others around in the future?

Sima family, how will you intimidate others in the future!
How dare you continue to hang around in Qingyun Market!
Since you are seeking your own death, don't blame me, Sima Cheng, for being ruthless!
