The Condor Heroes: The Quanzhen Sect has produced a vengeful master!

"I'm confident!"

At the gates of Lin'an, Wang Jiuling stuffed silver into the hands of the guards, and without even a proper inspection, he entered the city.

Upon hearing Wang Jiuling say he was confident, Shi Jingqing whispered, "Brother Wang! You're simply insane!"

"This is Lin'an! Right here at the foot of the imperial city! Right before the Emperor Zhao's eyes! You...you..."

After learning on the way that Wang Jiuling intended to kill Shi Song, Shi Jingqing remained silent for a long time.

But he quickly came to a realization.

From the moment Shi Songzhi tried to kill him, he no longer considered Shi Songzhi to be his family.

If possible, Shi Jingqing would not mind personally sacrificing his own family for the greater good.

Now he felt that Wang Jiuling's attempt to kill someone in Lin'an was a gross disregard for the law.

"Besides... how will you preach after killing people like this in Lin'an?"

Wang Jiuling smiled, patted his shoulder, and whispered in his ear.

"Brother Shi, I know this, so I won't make a big deal out of it. I have a way."

For Wang Jiuling, assassinating Shi Songzhi without being discovered was far too easy.

Even if he is not at his peak right now.

Shi Jingqing couldn't dissuade Wang Jiuling, and he sighed. "Brother Wang, you..."

...

The two entered the city with a clear purpose: Shi Jingqing went directly to visit his friend's residence.

Huang Kaibo, a student of the Imperial Academy, and Jin Wanjiu.

These two were among the most respected students who opposed Shi Songzhi's attempt to seize the opportunity to marry Shi Songzhi.

Previously, Shi Jingqing had joined forces with the literati and these students of the Imperial Academy.

They are good friends.

Upon seeing Shi Jingqing, both of them were extremely surprised.

Because Shi Jingqing has been missing for more than half a month.

"Brother Shi! You stood up for your family and personally organized us to impeach Uncle, so why did you suddenly disappear afterwards?"

The two were very curious. During this period, without the support of Shi Jingqing, Shi Songzhi's nephew, their influence had diminished considerably.

Shi Jingqing was deeply moved and told the two of them directly about how he had been poisoned and placed under house arrest.

"What?! How...how dare he be so vicious?!"

Huang Kaibo and Jin Wanjiu were both stunned.

How could a person be so vicious?

"This is Master Qingyang of the Northern Quanzhen Sect, Wang Jiuling! He is my close friend!" Shi Jingqing introduced Wang Jiuling to the two of them.

"If it weren't for my brother saving me, I would probably be dead by now!"

Shi Jingqing's plan was to secretly come to Lin'an, find these imperial students, and unite them.

Then find some officials in the imperial court who oppose Shi Songzhi.

By making a big fuss about his poisoning, he not only brought down Shi Songzhi, but also helped Wang Jiuling establish his reputation.

Wang Jiuling's plan was even simpler.

After protecting Shi Jingqing and getting this done, go and kill Shi Songzhi.

Huang and Jin then learned of Wang Jiuling's great name and were immediately filled with admiration.

He stated frankly that Wang Jiuling was a righteous man.

Now look what's happened. The students of the Imperial Academy have just been suppressed, and their morale is at its lowest point.

The six leaders were demoted, and Shi Jingqing disappeared.

But now he's brought back such big news, Shi Songzhi is finished!

The two left Wang Jiuling and Shi Jingqing at the residence, and they set off immediately to contact the other students of the Imperial Academy.

This has really stirred up a hornet's nest.

The students of the Imperial Academy were suppressed by Shi Songzhi's power, and they were all burning with anger with nowhere to vent their frustration.

Upon learning of Shi Jingqing's arrival, many insightful individuals gathered within a single day.

The news even reached the students of the Zongxue and Wuxue schools.

Early the next morning, two or three hundred people knelt in front of the palace gate, led by Shi Jingqing and Huang and Jin.

They held up banners and even a list of Shi Songzhi's numerous crimes written by Shi Jingqing.

They demanded to see the Emperor Zhao and to expose Shi Songzhi.

"He even poisoned his own nephew! Such a morally bankrupt and utterly wicked person is unworthy to be the prime minister of my Great Song Dynasty!"

"Your Majesty, please consider this carefully!"

Shi Jingqing, who was Shi Song's nephew, led the roar, which made passersby stop to watch the spectacle.

Soon, a crowd of people gathered at the palace gate, discussing the matter animatedly.

"What?! Shi Songzhi actually poisoned his own nephew? Is that true?"

"That's too cruel! Is this person even human?"

This commotion alarmed Zhao Yun, who was inside the palace.

"What is Shi Songzhi good for? He was asked to resolve this matter, and this is how he resolved it?"

These imperial students had been holding back their anger for a long time. Yesterday, they not only contacted each other, but also sought out Shi Songzhi's mortal enemy in the imperial court.

To be honest, Shi Songzhi's interpersonal relationships were ridiculously poor.

Shi Songzhi hadn't received any prior notice of Shi Jingqing's arrival, such a significant event.

One should never go too far in life.

Before Shi Songzhi could react, other officials also joined together to request an audience with the emperor.

Early this morning, the area in front of the palace gates was bustling with activity.

Wang Jiuling sat in a teahouse on the next street, watching the people around him spreading the news, and couldn't help but smile and shake his head.

He never expected that saving Shi Jingqing's life would make him famous so soon.

All my years of fighting demons and protecting the righteous path probably can't compare to the fame I've gained this time.

...

Meanwhile, things are progressing very quickly.

Shi Songzhi never imagined that Shi Jingqing would arrive in Lin'an alive and well.

The residence of Shi Songzhi.

"Damn it!! Why is he still alive?! He was poisoned so deeply, did he encounter a divine being?"

"You bastard!"

Why is he in Lin'an?! I had no idea?!

Shi Songzhi smashed all the tables, chairs, and benches in the room.

This is simply outrageous. The reason Shi Songzhi wasn't afraid before was because he thought Shi Jingqing was doomed.

Indeed, based on the previous circumstances, Shi Jingqing would not have been able to leave Qingyuan Prefecture alive.

Even if Shi Jingqing's body were discovered, it wouldn't cause much of a stir.

Shi Songzhi had plenty of ways to resolve the situation.

But this is truly bizarre! Shi Jingqing suddenly appeared in Lin'an and personally exposed the truth.

Regardless of whether people believe what Shi Jingqing said, even if they don't, countless people will use this incident to attack Shi Songzhi.

Shi Songzhi knew he might be in trouble this time. The incident of seizing the prisoner's wife had just been somewhat suppressed when this happened.

Sure enough, one of their own people soon came running to report.

"Your Excellency! Something terrible has happened, Your Excellency!"

It turned out that it was a friend of Shi Songzhi in the palace who risked his life to deliver the letter to him.

The emperor was furious that he was ordered to leave Lin'an immediately and had issued an imperial edict ordering him to remain in his residence for investigation.

Upon seeing this secret letter, Shi Songzhi broke out in a cold sweat.

Beside him, the clerk also wore a serious expression. "Your Excellency! This is troublesome!"

That friend in the palace must have been afraid that Shi Songzhi's investigation would implicate him, which is why he sent the message.

Shi Songzhi's face turned pale and then flushed.

Yesterday he was so confident, assuring his two lackeys that nothing would happen, and today this has happened.

Shi Song and his men were all numb.

His instinct was to run, but then he thought, "No! That's not right! I can't run!"

"If I run, I'll definitely die! If I don't run, I have a way to survive!"

"I will survive!"
