I became a fox girl and was captured by the True Dragon Saint

I can't afford it.

He is an immortal who came down from the mountain! Indeed, it is my blessing to be able to come to this village to accept disciples. I am unlucky enough to be in the eyes of the immortal. How dare I contradict the immortal...

Jiang Keer frowned.

"You come here to recruit students and set high tuition fees. It's obvious that you are making things difficult for us. You have no intention of recruiting students at all!" Jiang Ke'er stood in front of the table and looked at the sword cultivator coldly. "Although the villagers have not resisted the power of your Donglai Sword Sect, they will not tolerate you deliberately mocking and bullying us!"

"Eh? What's the matter?" The swordsman smiled frivolously, "Not convinced? Want to die?"

"Ah……"

According to Jiang Keer's previous practices, this kid's head should have been stuck in the ground by now.

In order to avoid exposing her identity, she certainly couldn't use such simple and crude methods to solve the problem, but she had a better way.

Jiang Keer took out the communication stone.

"Hey, government office, someone is bullying the villagers here."

The sword cultivator laughed out loud upon hearing this.

"Government? Even if we give them 80 more courage, will they dare to bother our Donglai Sword Sect? For hundreds of years, we have never seen any government office that dares to cause trouble for our Donglai Sword Sect without fear of death!"

Jiang Ke'er smiled but said nothing.

"what's the situation?"

The officers and soldiers appeared at an unprecedented speed.

There was no government office in the village, so they came from Linshui City.

"Captain Wu, long time no see!" The sword cultivator greeted Captain Wu familiarly.

When the surrounding villagers saw the scene, they immediately felt nervous and thought to themselves that it was bad.

I'm afraid that the daring little girl today will not have a good ending.

When Constable Wu saw the attire of the sword cultivator and the people around him, he suddenly felt a headache: "Donglai Sword Sect? What's going on? Who reported the case just now?"

"I reported it," Jiang Ke'er puffed up her face angrily, looking childish and aggrieved, and said, "Uncle police, they are bullying the villagers!"

Although he didn't understand what the policeman meant, Captain Wu could still understand the second half of the sentence.

However, the one who reported the case to the police was such a naive and ignorant little girl.

It looks like just a little kid throwing a tantrum, right?

"What kind of oppression method is used?" Captain Wu asked with a headache.

Jiang Keer's mouth curled up, she pushed up her glasses on the bridge of her nose, a cold light flashed in her eyes, and her tone suddenly became extremely serious.

"The Donglai Sword School seems to be responding to your majesty's enrollment policy, but it maliciously charges high tuition fees, deliberately hindering the poor children from receiving education, dampening their enthusiasm for studying, and singing a different tune from your majesty's new policy...

He pretends to obey your majesty's policies but secretly disobeys them! The evidence is irrefutable, and he may be suspected of treason!"

Damn it? !

This sudden and clearly-organized complaint text stunned the recruiting sword cultivators.

He originally thought that the villagers were short-sighted and easy to fool, and even if he reported it to the authorities, he would be the one who would suffer in the end.

Unexpectedly, a huge black pot was put on his face with the two big words "treason" written on it. The counterattack was so fierce that he was caught off guard.

Captain Wu’s head suddenly became even more confused.

At this critical juncture when the new regime was just established, the new emperor was sensitive and wanted to establish the country's prestige.

Even if the charge of treason is a bit far-fetched, defying the new policy is already a serious crime of treason, and Your Majesty has repeatedly stressed that it must be severely punished.

Just at this moment, the Donglai Sword School ran into the gun.

In fact, 90% of the sects are implementing the same policy as the Donglai Sword Sect, but ordinary people do not pay attention to the policy, do not understand it, and no one reports it to the authorities.

But if someone reports it to the authorities, they will definitely not dare to ignore it.

The recruiting swordsman understood the pros and cons, but he never expected to run into a tough opponent in such a small fishing village.

The new emperor ordered that all sects in the world must reach out to the people and implement a plan to lower the threshold for enrollment, and every sect must comply.

Just execute it.

Every policy has a countermeasure. Just set up an admissions office for the inspectors to pretend, but just don’t accept any students.

So he deliberately chose such a small fishing village with simple folk customs and isolated information as the enrollment location rather than a populous city.

One reason is that country people are afraid of trouble and will not report it to the police even if they know something is wrong.

The second reason is that the countryside is isolated from the rest of the world. Most of the people there are already trying their best to survive, so they don’t have the time to learn about the country’s new policies. If they don’t know, they can’t complain.

Who would have thought that he would meet Jiang Ke'er, a weirdo who had nothing to do and read newspapers all day long.

“Don’t talk nonsense!” The recruiting sword cultivator was instantly anxious. “Since the establishment of the Great Tang Empire, our Donglai Sword Sect has been fully responding to every policy of the new emperor! We have never been hypocritical or deceived our superiors and subordinates! You little bastard are slandering me!”

"Well..." Captain Wu also took the opportunity to smooth things over, "Everything needs evidence. Although this matter is very serious, if there is no evidence..."

"Oh————" Jiang Keer let out a long sigh.

"You villains..." Jiang Ke'er's face was filled with pain, "You've been recorded more than once or twice, why don't you learn your lesson? Be more careful, or else this book will be criticized for lowering intelligence, although it is indeed quite stupid..."

The recruiting swordsman glanced calmly at the video crystal that Jiang Keer took out.

A fierce light flashed in his eyes!

Beside him, Captain Wu's expression began to turn serious.

Seeing that Jiang Ke'er was about to press the play button, the recruiting swordsman drew his sword decisively!

The sharp sword light was like a bird flying across the sky, swinging towards Jiang Keer's arm!

What a turtle-like speed... Jiang Keer complained quietly in her heart.

But she seemed to be unaware of it and still stood there stupidly.

(3/3)

13. Crystal?

"Snapped--"

The sword light suddenly twisted in the air and finally landed on the crystal.

The crystal immediately shattered into countless pieces and could no longer function as a playback device.

Jiang Ke'er seemed to have just realized what had happened, staring blankly at the crystal fragments in her hand.

"You actually..."

"Oh~ I accidentally broke your stuff~" The recruiting sword cultivator deliberately dragged out his voice and squinted at Jiang Ke'er with the most sarcasm he could, "What a pity, your life-saving straw is gone~"

"Nonsense!" Captain Wu knew that the sword cultivator's behavior was tantamount to defying the law and destroying the body in front of him.

But now the evidence is gone, and at most he can be charged with a crime like disturbing the peace.

In the end, he successfully avoided the important issue and allowed the Donglai Sword Sect to escape disaster.

The swordsman glanced at Jiang Ke'er with a smug look.

Humph, you little brat, you want to fight me? You?

"You actually..."

Jiang Ke'er was so angry that she was shaking all over.

Then she suddenly burst into tears on the spot!

"Hey, the little brat is really just a little brat," the swordsman continued to use his ability to be sarcastic, "Can you just cry for no reason? Crying won't make crystals appear~"

Jiang Ke'er continued to cry while holding the crystal fragments in her hand.

The sword cultivator looked at Jiang Ke'er's sad face with satisfaction, showing a hypocritical sympathetic face, and said: "Don't cry, little sister, it's just a broken crystal, I will compensate you for the price..."

"Okay, fifty million magic crystals."

Jiang Ke'er grinned, and the tear marks on her face disappeared completely like magic.

"Uh...ah? What???" The swordsman's face froze, he was embarrassed.

"This is the ancestral gem left to me by my great-grandmother's great-grandmother. It is made of the finest quality jade and is the last piece of jade in the world."

Jiang Ke'er tilted her head with a smile and stretched out her hand: "Material costs, labor costs, maintenance costs, age costs, plus the mental damages for the broken heirloom, even if you can lower the price... a total of 50 million, magic crystal, thank you. So many people and Captain Wu saw you smash the jade with their own eyes, you should not refuse to pay, right?"

The sword cultivator was completely dumbfounded.

This pit, caught me off guard...

"Wasn't that... a video crystal?" He looked at Jiang Ke'er with difficulty.

"You are stupid, the video crystal is here." Jiang Ke'er raised her hand and pulled out the hairpin behind her head, "Just to blackmail... cough! Just to guard against idiots like you who take advantage of their power to bully others, I have long had the habit of hanging a video crystal behind my head."

You are so meow...

At that critical moment just now, why did you suddenly take out the heirloom instead of the video crystal? Are you sick?!

The sword cultivator's mentality collapsed.

However, looking at the hairpin in Jiang Ke'er's hand, murderous intent appeared on the sword cultivator's face again.

"Don't have any evil thoughts," Jiang Ke'er tapped the small crystal on the hairpin gently, "Can't you recognize it? This brand is the famous 'Life-saving Artifact·Friend of the Sparrow'. This video crystal is extremely expensive. All the fortune I have earned so far has been invested in it, but it's worth it!

Once I die, or my hands tremble, the contents of the crystal will be immediately uploaded to my circle of monks, letting everyone know the ugly face of the Donglai Sword Sect... What, do you want to try it?"

The sword cultivator's mouth trembled, and he suddenly felt that the world was so dark.

"Fifty million," Jiang Ke'er smiled at the swordsman, "Out of friendship, I'll round it off for you and make it one hundred million."

what?

what? !

"Puff——" the sword cultivator vomited blood on the spot.

"Captain Wu, I want to sue the Donglai Sword Sect for damaging my personal property and openly resisting His Majesty's new policy." Jiang Ke'er shook her hairpin. "Everything that just happened was recorded by this hairpin, but I believe that you, Captain Wu, will enforce the law impartially and firmly implement the will of the court. You will never protect any local tyrants!"

"That...that's natural..."

Captain Wu was covered in cold sweat. He tremblingly took out the small porcelain bottle and swallowed a handful of pain-relieving pills - he was having a headache now.

This would probably be the biggest case he would ever personally handle in his life.

"Slow down! Slow down!"

Seeing Captain Wu opening the shackles with a click and preparing to put them on the head, the sword practitioners of the Donglai Sword Sect panicked: "Captain Wu, wait a moment, we need to ask the Sect Master for instructions!"

"Well," Constable Wu nodded, "The Donglai Sword Sect is guilty of something, you'd better handle this matter seriously. If you don't handle it well, I don't need to tell you the consequences..."

The Donglai sword practitioners shuddered.

Yes, if it is not handled properly, the Donglai Sword Sect will become the chicken that the new emperor kills to scare the monkeys, and being removed from Shenzhou is no big deal... If the new emperor happens to be in a bad mood, maybe the whole family will be executed!

The sword cultivators hurriedly reported the situation to the sect.

The headmaster arrived soon.

As soon as he landed, he slapped all the disciples of Donglai Sword Sect present.

"I told you to follow the new emperor's rules and accept disciples honestly, but what did you do?" The white-bearded sword master cursed on the spot, "You outer disciples have bad intentions and deliberately ruined the reputation of my Donglai Sword Sect. From today on, all of you get out of Donglai Sword Sect!"

Good means.

Jiang Ke'er was watching from the side and wanted to praise the leader.

This skillful operation of finding temporary workers to take the blame is worthy of being the leader!

After cursing, the head of the sect glanced at Jiang Keer and Captain Wu with contempt... Now, what else can you do to the Donglai Sword Sect?

At most, the perpetrator would be thrown into a jail cell. No matter how hard a small cultivator in the Three Talents Realm tried, it would be impossible for him to come up with a compensation of 100 million.

The perpetrator has already been kicked out of the Donglai Sword Sect, so he can never expect the Donglai Sword Sect to take the blame for him or pay the debt.

"Okay, I'll upload it then." Jiang Ke'er said, her finger was about to press on the hairpin.

"Don't!" The head of the Donglai Sword Sect changed his expression, "We can discuss it again. I am willing to pay some money to buy your video crystal."

Jiang Keer smiled.

"You are bluffing indeed."
