Grinding Cultivation Toward Martial Saint-Chapter 246 - 7 Jiang Ning Makes a Move

In front of the Inspection Office.

"Who are you saying is colluding?" A man's voice suddenly rose from the crowd.

The next moment.

"Make way!" the man spoke, waving his hand, and the crowd parted to both sides.

"He Jinyun!" Xie Xiaojiu saw him and immediately furrowed her brows.

Who didn't know the renown of this Young Master?

Yesterday, as a team leader, this Young Master had easily secured the position of Deputy Commander without a fight.

That incident alone was enough to make him unforgettable to the people.

Not to mention his identity as Young Master.

Anyone who knew what 'Lord' implied dared not take any slight action against this Young Master.

"You said I collude, so tell me, how exactly do I collude!" He Jinyun's face turned extremely displeased.

Seeing this, even Xie Xiaojiu, who was not very eloquent, patiently started to converse with He Jinyun.

Meanwhile.

Next to the windowsill of a pavilion.

Two men quietly stood there.

These were Hong Minghu and Ye Qiu.

One was the Residence Master of Luoshui County's Inspection Office, and the other one of the Four Great Commanders.

Both of their statuses were extraordinary.

"What a rabble!" Ye Qiu said coldly, looking at the scene below.

Hong Minghu smiled slightly, "Didn't we anticipate this scene long ago?"

Ye Qiu sighed, "Yes, but it's incredibly disappointing! Once some people gain power, they start abusing it!"

"That's acceptable," Hong Minghu said indifferently. "Compared to the current situation, their actions are not significant, merely small issues!"

"True," Ye Qiu nodded. "Coming to Luoshui County, I didn't expect such peace here."

Hong Minghu explained, "Luoshui County has a unique geographic advantage, adjoining Luoshui River. Even the drought these past months hasn't impacted this area much; the farmlands still have water for irrigation, and because there are fishermen, even the price of grain hasn't risen much."

"The County Lord is truly talented!"

Hearing Hong Minghu mention the County Lord of Luoshui County, Ye Qiu immediately nodded, "Indeed a talented person! Managing to stabilize the grain prices is a merit!"

"Speaking of which, considering the local three major families, whom does the Residence Master intend to take action against?"

"You'll find out in a few days!" Hong Minghu stated lightly.

"I'll wait for the Residence Master's news," Ye Qiu said.

"This matter doesn't need your involvement, let the Deputy Commander handle it," Hong Minghu added.

"No problem," Ye Qiu nodded.

...

In front of the Inspection Office.

Jiang Ning frowned suddenly.

"Cheng Ran and his son were also captured?"

Just then.

He Jinyun waved his hand, interrupting Xie Xiaojiu's speech.

"So much nagging!"

"It hurts the ears!"

"You want justice, it's simple!"

At this, He Jinyun clenched his fist and gestured towards Xie Xiaojiu.

"Justice is power! Power is justice!! And it's the truth!!"

"Just like the Martial Saint, whatever he says is the truth of the entire Great Xia!!!"

"If you defeat me, Xiao Tianhe is wrong, and I'll let you deal with him. If you lose to me, then your harming of a colleague and insubordination is wrong!"

Xie Xiaojiu clenched her fist, then took a deep breath and said, "You, being an Eighth-Rank Official and a Deputy Commander as well as a Young Master, and I, merely a Patrol Guard, how can I contend with you?"

"That makes sense!" He Jinyun nodded slightly, "It's indeed bullying to make you fight me."

Then, He Jinyun looked around.

"Young Master!" Xiao Tianhe immediately looked anxious.

"You, come here!" He Jinyun's gaze settled on Xiao Tianhe. "Since you started this mess, you'll resolve it!"

Hearing this, Xiao Tianhe's face darkened.

If he could defeat Xie Xiaojiu, would he have bothered with all these antics?

He really wanted to complain to He Jinyun, but he dared not.

He Jinyun was superior to him in strength, position, and status.

At this, He Jinyun left these words and turned to leave, leaving Xiao Tianhe with a face full of dark lines.

"Captain Xiao, make your move!" Xie Xiaojiu's brows immediately relaxed.

Against He Jinyun, she had no confidence.

Having witnessed Jiang Ning's strength, the oppressive feeling left her looking up to him like a towering mountain.

In such circumstances, it was obvious that the strength of He Jinyun, who had secured the Deputy Commander's position without a fight, could not be underestimated.

She could not afford to lose, so she dared not rashly choose to fight with He Jinyun.

But facing Xiao Tianhe was different.

He was just an ordinary captain.

If she hadn't overestimated herself in fighting for the captain's position against Jiang Ning, the Deputy Commander, how would she have ended up merely as a Patrol Guard?

Meanwhile.

Compared to the suddenly relaxed heart of Xie Xiaojiu, Xiao Tianhe was extremely tense inside.

He Jinyun's words were akin to roasting him on a fire.

If he lost to Xie Xiaojiu in a fight in front of so many people, it wouldn't just be a humiliation, but he might also be punished.

Considering the morning's deeds, they wouldn't withstand strict scrutiny.

Thinking of this, Xiao Tianhe was deeply conflicted.

"Captain Xiao, if you don't make a move, I will!" Xie Xiaojiu slightly turned the hilt of her sword and a piercing sunlight reflected off it into Xiao Tianhe's pupils, causing him to squint slightly.

Suddenly.

Xiao Tianhe coldly smiled, pulling a book from his bosom, "According to the rules of the Inspection Office, when do you, a mere Patrol Guard, have the right to strike me?"
