I meet all the requirements for becoming a god in this world!

Chapter 111 You mean he's a man of great righteousness, using you to establish his authority?

Silence.

After Zhang Lin finished speaking.

The entire area fell into an eerie silence.

Liu Yundu lowered his head and looked expressionlessly at Zhang Lin kneeling on the ground.

He stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes narrowed like slits, staring down at him condescendingly.

At that moment, no one dared to even breathe.

Cheng Laiyun stood at a distance, his gaze fixed intently on Liu Yundu ahead.

The person in front of me is very strong.

It's terrifyingly strong.

Even stronger than his master.

Those were a pair of eyes as strong as an abyss.

Just by standing there, he was like Mount Tai, making people unable to muster even a shred of courage to oppose him.

As for Hai Wuyai behind him, if it weren't for him holding his shoulder tightly, he would probably have collapsed to the ground by now.

Gao Heyun's gaze slowly swept over everyone.

She glanced at Cheng Laiyun, then turned her gaze to Zhang Lin in front of her.

Standing behind Liu Yundu, she was expressionless, her delicate brows slightly furrowed, seemingly lost in thought.

You mean...

"You are a sixth-rank martial arts inspector."

"He was beaten into this state by an eighth-rank Mo Xiu Inspector."

Liu Yundu's voice wasn't loud, but every word he uttered was crystal clear to everyone present.

He remained expressionless, looking down at Zhang Lin.

His deep, unfathomable gaze sent chills down one's spine.

His voice drew everyone's attention to Zhang Lin.

These gazes, though strange, were like knives, slicing into Zhang Lin.

Zhang Lin's body trembled violently.

Humiliation and resentment welled up in my heart.

But he dared not raise his head, like a stray dog, lying on the ground, turning his head to glance at Cheng Laiyun.

His hair was disheveled, and blood and rotting flesh covered his eyes.

But a hint of ruthlessness could still be seen through the cracks.

"He's not an eighth-rank official, he's a seventh-rank official!"

Zhang Lin's voice trembled: "He also has the Mo Clan's battle armor!"

"He was faking it. He deliberately pretended to be an eighth-rank official to make his subordinates underestimate him."

"Then he deliberately came to cause trouble for his subordinates. The subordinates were caught off guard and just wanted to teach him a lesson."

"Who would have thought—he took advantage of his subordinate's momentary lapse in attention to launch a full-scale attack on him—Lord Liu! He's trying to use his subordinate's power to establish his own authority!!"

"Unfortunately, we ran into the adults who were chasing the culprit and were caught red-handed."

These words were spoken.

Cheng Laiyun was stunned.

He looked at Zhang Lin.

His gaze was fixed on Zhang Lin's face.

Through the gaps in the bloody mess, he saw the earnestness and humility in Zhang Lin's eyes, and was even somewhat shocked.

If he hadn't experienced it firsthand, as an outsider, he might have believed what Zhang Lin said.

After all, people tend to sympathize more with the weak in crucial moments.

At this moment, Zhang Lin was covered in blood, looking utterly disheveled, and his voice still carried a hint of grievance—

"Tch~"

Cheng Laiyun simply scoffed.

His laughter.

It was extremely jarring in the silent air.

Liu Yundu and Gao Heyun both looked up and looked at him.

Cheng Laiyun did not immediately offer an explanation in response to the gazes of the two men.

Instead, he glanced at Zhang Lin with a mocking expression: "If you tell the truth, I'll respect you as a man."

"Now you're spreading rumors and twisting the truth in front of Lord Liu—you're just like your clansman Zhang Hong, who's having an affair with the demon race."

At this point, he continued with a disdainful look, "The Zhang family of Quzhou can't even muster a single backbone."

Gao Heyun pursed her lips slightly, a barely perceptible smile flashing deep in her eyes.

That kid.

Her lips were as sweet as honey.

Liu Yundu remained silent for a moment.

The Zhang family of Quzhou.

The top aristocratic families of the Great Yuan Dynasty.

The disciples in the clan were notoriously arrogant.

They all had their nostrils pointing upwards.

It is indeed very annoying.

But no matter what you think in your heart, you should always give them the face they deserve.

Let alone Liu Yundu, even Zhang Xiangqin would have to give the Zhang family patriarch some face.

This kid—

Although I agree with Cheng Laiyun's words in my heart.

But Liu Yundu remained expressionless, staring at Cheng Laiyun, a faint smile playing on his lips: "Oh?"

"Do you have any objections?"

Cheng Laiyun bowed solemnly to Liu Yundu, saying, "Lord Liu."

"My subordinates and colleagues were law-abiding and patrolled the streets as usual."

"After meeting Zhang Lin, he insisted on 'borrowing' the Rejuvenation Pill from me."

He emphasized the word "borrow".

"If I don't give it to him, he'll try to take it by force."

"Then a conflict broke out."

During the pause in his speech.

Zhang Lin, who was standing to the side, suddenly looked up, his face contorted with malice, staring viciously at Cheng Laiyun: "My lord, do not listen to this scoundrel's nonsense!"

"The Rejuvenation Pill is indeed precious, but what kind of foundation does the Zhang family of Quzhou possess?"

"Why would I covet his bottle of Rejuvenation Pills?!"

"This boy's words are full of holes! My lord, do not be deceived by his wicked talk!"

"The Rejuvenation Pill is for martial artists."

"It can be considered a top-grade elixir."

Liu Yundu spoke calmly, "Where did you come from, a disciple of the Mo Sect?"

He has a sharp mind.

They immediately noticed the discrepancy between the two statements.

That question.

This played right into Cheng Laiyun's hands.

He looked up innocently at Gao Heyun behind Liu Yundu and blinked, "You'll have to ask Lord Gao about that."

"Oh?" Liu Yundu was slightly taken aback, then turned his head to look at Gao Heyun, who had been silent all along, and frowned.

Liu Yundu's gaze was sharp.

But Gao Heyun's face remained completely expressionless.

She remained expressionless, raised her jade-like finger, pointed at Cheng Laiyun, and slowly spoke: "The Zhang Hong case in Qingzhou."

"It was this boy who broke through."

"Zhang Hong was also killed by his own hands."

"He also saved the lives of the people in Qingzhou County."

Therefore, the Rejuvenating Pill bestowed by the imperial court should belong to him.

"Therefore, I simply returned the pill to him."

Her voice remained cold and aloof.

But every word is clear.

Swish!

Now, everyone's attention was focused on Cheng Laiyun.

Everyone in the Regent's Office knew about the Zhang Hong case in Qingzhou.

Upon hearing the person in question's name, everyone's gaze changed.

Those who had realized what was happening turned their attention back to Zhang Lin.

A profound meaning and an eeriness began to gather in their eyes.

Ok?

You mean, someone who risked their own life to save all the people here is so cunning and treacherous that they concealed their true strength to deliberately provoke you, wanting to use you to establish their authority?

no----

He casually recounts his deeds; wouldn't everyone give him some face?

Why would I need to use you to establish my authority?

Oh, I get it. This disgusting thing, they're treating us like idiots.

Others might think of this.

Liu Yundu could naturally have thought of that as well.

Moreover, he thought about it much more deeply.

It is true that Zhang Hong came from the Zhang family of Quzhou.

But after he committed the crime, the Zhang family of Quzhou completely severed ties with him.

Therefore, the Zhang family of Quzhou was not included in the court's extermination of his three clans.

This is also the fundamental reason why various powerful families have been able to survive for thousands of years.

But severing ties is only a formality.

Secretly, there are still quite a few people in the Zhang family of Quzhou who are connected with Zhang Hong.

It seems that the conflict between Zhang Lin and this boy is largely related to Zhang Hong.

"hehe."

Thinking of this, Liu Yundu smiled calmly, already having made up his mind.
