Chapter 89 The shocking truth

"There's no rule in our county government that prohibits bringing weapons into the courtroom."

Lin Rui, holding his sword in his hand, walked up the steps of the county government office from behind the crowd, instantly attracting the attention of everyone around him.

Tie Ji Ying Yuan, Zhang Tianchang, Cao Jun and others all looked at him.

Lin Ruize walked calmly and composedly, "What exactly does the County Lieutenant want to do? If he wants to discuss matters, then let us in. If he doesn't want to discuss matters, then forget it. What's the point of doing this? I don't have time to serve him."

Tie Ji Ying Yuan's eyes suddenly bulged, and he looked at Lin Rui with a murderous look: "How dare you be so disrespectful to the county lieutenant?"

Lin Rui smiled casually and looked at the pair of iron halberds in Ying Yuan's hands and his hands with bulging veins.

"What? Still want to fight me?"

Lin Rui also pulled out the sword from his waist, with a cold smile on his lips and a fierce aura: "Do you believe that I will quit my job as a constable today and kill you first?"

Clang!
Ji Xueying, who was standing behind Lin Rui, also suddenly drew her sword, holding the six-foot-long narrow sword "Jingxue" diagonally in her hand.

She stared at Tieji Yingyuan steadily, her pair of icy eyes showing a hint of bloodshot and a cold murderous intent.

As long as Lin Rui gave the order, she could kill this person.

Ying Yuan's facial muscles stiffened, the corners of his lips twitched wildly, and he cursed the bastard, the gigolo, in his heart, for relying on this Blood Knife Lady to be so arrogant in front of him!
If you have the ability, don't bring Blood Blade Girl with you and fight him alone!

He's just a mere third realm cultivator. I can kill this bastard with one hand!
At this moment, the county lieutenant's voice came from the hall: "Alright, Captain Ying, let them in."

Tieji Yingyuan's face was extremely ugly. His eyes were cold, licking the faces of Lin Rui and Ji Xueying like the tongue of a poisonous snake.

After a moment, Tieji Yingyuan took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and thought, let this pair of dogs live for a while longer, it won’t be too late to settle the score with them later.

He snorted coldly and walked into the hall holding an iron halberd.

Seeing this, the county soldiers standing on the stage could only move aside.

Zhang Tianchang smiled slightly and gave Lin Rui a thumbs up to show his appreciation.

Lin Rui sneered when he saw this.

If you are too particular about rules, you will be bullied. You can never be a gentleman when dealing with people like the county lieutenant and Ying Yuan.

He is a close confidant promoted by the county magistrate, so it is normal for him to be a little domineering.

He also made a gesture to Zhang Tianchang and pointed inside.

Zhang Tianchang nodded slightly. He also realized that the county lieutenant today must have bad intentions.

Lin Rui then handed a large stack of lightning and blazing talismans from his pocket to Blood Knife Ji, "Xueying, first stick these talismans everywhere, inside and outside. Even stick a few in places you can't see, like on beams, corners, and behind walls."

He had been drawing talismans these days when he had nothing to do, and since he had plenty of money, he stockpiled more than 800 lightning talismans.

The Blood Knife Lady's concealment skills are rare in the world. As long as she doesn't want to be seen, even the county magistrate cannot sense her presence.

Ji Xueying nodded and immediately disappeared.

She moved swiftly, flashing around everywhere. She first pasted more than a hundred talismans outside the hall, then went into the hall and pasted them everywhere. She even pasted one or two behind the constables and county soldiers standing in the corners of the hall.

County Lieutenant Zhu Lingshi was sitting in the hall at this time. When he saw this scene, he was speechless.

His eyes followed Ji Xueying as she jumped up and down in the lobby, putting talismans everywhere, and he thought to himself, "I can see! Do you think I'm blind?"
Others cannot see Ji Xueying, but for some reason he can see Ji Xueying's figure.

However, Zhu Lingshi thought about it and decided not to stop him. The boy surnamed Lin was quite cautious, but it was useless for him to put up these talismans.

Lin Rui waited until Ji Xueying had put the talisman on before he walked into the lobby with Wang Sen.

He frowned as soon as he entered the room, because the Dianshi Jiang Hanzhang was also sitting in the hall, right below the county lieutenant.

There are also two captains of police who resigned with Jiang Hanzhang. They are here today and standing on the left side of the lobby.

Only Captain Li had died at the hands of Blood Knife Lady a few days ago.

What made Lin Rui particularly concerned was that there were not only forty county soldiers standing on the left and right sides of the lobby, but also forty large wooden boxes placed against the wall. Inside the wooden boxes were magic array structures, similar to the screen he had seen in the county magistrate's study before, which could block people's spiritual perception.

Also, why is Master Du not here?

This made Lin Rui narrow his eyes, and he thought that this was indeed the Hongmen Banquet.

Zhang Tianchang's face was livid. He bowed to the county lieutenant in the hall and said, "County lieutenant, a few days ago, Jiang Hanzhang and the two former captains, Wang and Jin, resigned from the county magistrate. They are no longer officials. Why are you still here in the hall today?"

County Lieutenant Zhu Lingshi held his teacup and smiled casually, his eyes full of disdain.

Now that these people have entered the county government office, they are like tigers in a cage, and their life and death are in their own hands.

Registrar Jiang Hanzhang narrowed his eyes and glared at the crowd. "Where did this county magistrate come from? What's his name? Is he a man or a woman? For the past few months, the position of county magistrate in our county has been usurped by a demon. You didn't investigate, and you became accomplices to the evil. This has allowed the demon to wreak havoc in the city, tormenting the people. Have you still not learned your lesson?"

Lin Rui and Wang Sen trembled all over after hearing just a few words, and looked at each other in disbelief.

To be honest, they really didn't know the county magistrate's name, they only knew that he was the county magistrate of this county.

Wang Sen immediately opened the database of the auxiliary chip to look at the identity information provided by the Alien Management Bureau.

His face began to turn pale.

The intelligence clearly stated that the county magistrate had died two months ago. The problem was that he had clearly seen this information before, but he didn't remember it.

Lin Rui's brow furrowed. A few days ago, at the Mingde University Martial Arts Club, he had checked the county magistrate's intelligence. He'd sensed something was amiss and even discussed it with Wang Sen. Why had he forgotten all about it since his arrival? What was this strange situation? "Our county magistrate, Li Honglin, died two months ago while pursuing a demon in Huoxu Town. The Imperial Court's Ministry of Personnel hasn't yet dispatched a new magistrate. Unexpectedly, a month later, a demon infiltrated our county and usurped the position. The prefect and I were unaware of the situation until today, when we finally confirmed his demonic identity."

"Zhang Tianchang, Lin Twelve, although you have aided the devil in committing his evil deeds over the past few months, I, however, consider that you were ignorant of the county magistrate's background and were deceived by him. This is understandable. I will imprison you today and will carefully examine whether you have followed the devil's lead before sentencing you!"

County Lieutenant Zhu Lingshi smiled slightly and put down the teacup in his hand: "Catch him!"

Following his order, many county soldiers standing nearby rushed forward with thick chains, trying to handcuff Zhang Tianchang and Lin Rui in the hall.

Dozens of county soldiers also rushed in from outside. They formed a spear formation and blocked the gate tightly.

But in the next moment, there was a sudden "boom" sound in the hall, and a wave of air swept through.

The Blood Knife Lady suddenly appeared, holding a six-foot sword and pointing it at the hall. At the same time, a sharp and domineering sword intent spread from her body, and a huge mental force swept across the entire hall.

Many county soldiers in the hall were shocked by her sword intent and almost fell down at the touch of her sword, and fainted without exception.

Wang Sen couldn't help but touch his head when he saw this scene. He suddenly realized and guessed that the reason why he was unconscious that day must be because of the oppression of Blood Knife Princess.

Jiang Hanzhang's pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly: "Lin Twelve, you dare to resist arrest?"

At this time, the eyes of County Lieutenant Zhu Lingshi and Tieji Yingyuan also became extremely sharp, and Zhang Tianchang and others also looked back in surprise.

"What do you mean by resisting arrest or not?"

Lin Rui held his knife in one hand and looked Zhu Lingshi in the eye with a proud expression. "Regarding the demon disguising himself as the county magistrate, all your statements are one-sided. I dare not believe them! We can wait for the county magistrate to return, and then we can carefully identify whether he is genuine or not.

The county lieutenant can also invite the superior from the county capital to preside over the investigation of this case. It will not be too late to convict us after the final conclusion! However, now, Lin has been slaying demons and monsters all these days without breaking any laws. I believe I have done my best to serve my superiors and the people. Who dares to arrest me now——"

His eyes widened, his gaze fierce and fierce: "Lin, I will kill him! I don't care if you are a county lieutenant or a magistrate!"

Zhang Tianchang was secretly surprised and thought that this kid was quite brave!
Of course, Lin Twelve is also very strong-willed. The king-level Blood Blade Princess is enough to fight against the county lieutenant, the clerk and others. Lin Twelve's own strength is also very good and he can kill the four realms of demons. If he wants to overturn the table and fight head-on, the county lieutenant and others will definitely not be able to suppress him.

At this time, Zhang Tianchang was in a heavy mood, wondering what was going on with the county magistrate?

County Lieutenant Zhu Lingshi narrowed his eyes and looked at Lin Rui, and after a moment he burst into laughter.

When Lin Rui came in just now, he knew that he would not be able to control this guy by official means.

Zhu Lingshi then turned his gaze to Blood Blade Fairy Ji Xueying, his eyes dark and deep: "You little bastard, you're acting so recklessly relying on a Blood Blade Fairy, but do you really think she belongs to you?"

Ji Xueying frowned immediately, feeling the blood and marrow in her body suddenly change, just like the night in Zuihua Tower more than ten days ago.

Her blood was boiling, and countless violent and chaotic thoughts were brewing in her mind. She also recalled the scene of her killing Yuan Yi.

At the same time, a powerful thought entered her mind, trying to control him and making her limbs unable to control herself.

She resisted with all her might, but it instantly triggered a backlash from deep within her soul and blood, causing her to feel severe pain all over her body and suffer immensely, causing her to even groan involuntarily.

Ji Xueying had this experience once before, and she immediately transferred her pain to Lin Rui through the Ruyi Heart Knot.

This was what the master had instructed her to do in advance, so she did not hesitate.

When the registrar Jiang Hanzhang and Tieji Yingyuan saw Ji Xueying's expression gradually calm down, they couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.

If the county lieutenant cannot subdue this Blood Blade Lady, today might end in a bloodbath, and it's hard to say who will be the winner.

County Lieutenant Zhu Lingshi calmly took out a fist-sized golden seal and a porcelain bottle from his sleeve.

As Zhu Lingshi opened the porcelain bottle and poured the blood inside onto the seal, the golden seal suddenly burned with blood flames.

Lin Rui frowned. He felt a sharp pain at first, and then the pain disappeared.

Lin Rui instantly realized that the blood contract between him and Ji Xueying had been temporarily severed.

Ji Xueying's face was distorted, her pupils gradually turned scarlet, and blue veins covered her fair skin.

She was thinking in her heart, No, this can't happen! She must not lose control again.

However, her consciousness and rationality gradually disappeared without her control.

County Lieutenant Zhu Lingshi smiled slightly when he saw this. Just as he expected, Ji Xueying could not withstand her father's blood.

He pointed in the air in the direction of Lin Rui: "Kill him, now!"

There was anticipation in Zhu Lingshi's eyes. This would be the second time that the Blood Knife Princess would kill her master.

Although it was a bit regrettable that he failed to lure the county magistrate into his trap, Lin Twelve's martial arts talent might even surpass that of the county magistrate! This might bring him even greater surprises.

Zhang Tianchang, Cao Jun and others in the hall couldn't help but change their expressions and stared in the direction of Ji Xueying.

The Blood Knife Lady was obviously beginning to lose control. This county lieutenant actually knew how to circumvent the blood contract and control the Blood Knife Lady.

This reminded them of the Zuihualou murder that happened more than ten days ago.

Zhang Tianchang personally experienced this bloody incident. He remembered that Ji Xueying was in this state at the time. She killed her former master Yuan Yi! She then killed more than 20 people near Zuihualou, including his deputy and several brothers in the government office.

Is the scene going to be repeated today?
Ji Xueying also turned around at this time and looked at Lin Rui behind her with a pair of scarlet eyes.

The sword 'Shocking Snow' in her hand was burning with bloody flames.
