Grinding Cultivation Toward Martial Saint-Chapter 247 - 7 Jiang Ning Makes a Move_2

He immediately said, "According to the rules of the Inspection Office, those who commit insubordination will, at minimum, be thrown into prison for seven days! At worst, they could be beheaded on the spot!!"

"Arrest her!" Captain Xiao promptly waved the book in his hand.

The few team members behind him exchanged glances, then moved towards Xie Xiaojiu.

Seeing this, Xie Xiaojiu couldn't help but grip the hilt of her sword tightly, the blade rotating slightly, emitting a buzzing sound.

"What, in front of so many people, do you still dare to resist?" Captain Xiao said coldly, "Surrender now and just serve seven days! If you knowingly break the law again, it won't be so easy to get off lightly!"

He then turned his head to look at the other captains who had come with him from the Martial Arts Garden.

"Fellow captains, if this woman resists, will you join me in apprehending her?"

"Brother Tianhe has spoken, how could we have a reason to refuse!" One of the captains immediately replied with a slight smile.

Another captain also said with a laugh, "Of course, there's no problem, it's just right to use this woman to correct the rules and regulations of the Inspection Office, lest there be no discipline at all!!"

...

On the other side.

By the window of the tower.

"What do you think?" Hong Minghu asked Ye Qiu indifferently.

Ye Qiu said, "Without a doubt, Captain Xiao has an issue!"

He then added, "But they are right, the Inspection Office has just been established, and there's no discipline to speak of, taking this woman as an example could establish some rules."

Upon hearing this, Hong Minghu burst into laughter.

"You seemed quite compassionate just now, how come you're so cold and heartless this moment! And you've lost all sense of chivalry towards women!"

Ye Qiu replied indifferently, "Sacrifice the few for the many, that's all there is to it! Sacrificing her to establish some rules for the Inspection Office is very worthwhile."

Just then,

Ye Qiu's gaze suddenly intensified.

"Looks like things can't go as planned!!"

Hong Minghu nodded slightly, "He's stepping in, your plan can't proceed! Indeed, it's still the young who are chivalrous and compassionate towards women!!"

Immediately, Hong Minghu thought to himself, since this young man has this consideration, why did he refuse my offer yesterday?

Could it be that this fellow hasn't seen the portrait of my daughter and thinks she looks like me?

Thinking this, Hong Minghu gently stroked his chin.

Scratch—

Scratch—

His rough palms brushed past his beard that was as sharp as steel needles, producing a scraping sound.

"It must be for this reason!"

Hong Minghu became more convinced of this reason.

And then,

He slapped his thigh.

"I'll send it to the youngster later!"

"Send what?" Ye Qiu looked at Hong Minghu beside him and was momentarily stunned.

Hong Minghu immediately smiled at Ye Qiu.

To onlookers, Hong Minghu didn't have the composure of a head of an office at this moment.

But both he and Gongsun Yu, the Third Elder of Medicine King Valley, were clearer than anyone else yesterday about Jiang Ning's frightening potential.

At his age, cultivating both internally and externally, he was at the peak of Martial Arts Eighth Grade, only a step away from Seventh Grade.

This was something only they, who had both stepped into the Fifth Grade Inner Strength Realm, could discern.

Moreover, he also mastered Sword Force capable of stepping into Fourth Grade.

All these factors combined in one person indicated a template of a young Grandmaster.

If he could marry off his daughter to him, there was a very high probability of gaining a Grandmaster in the future.

A Grandmaster was enough for a family to rise in the empire of Great Xia.

Especially in these troubled times, a Grandmaster was an entire family's safeguard.

And now, the reason Hong Minghu and Ye Qiu were acting this way,

was because Jiang Ning, seeing Xie Xiaojiu in trouble, stepped out from the crowd.

...

Elsewhere.

"If they say my person committed insubordination, what if I do it?" Jiang Ning stood in front of Xie Xiaojiu.

Looking at Jiang Ning, who appeared in front of her like a wall, Xie Xiaojiu's sinking heart suddenly saw the light again.

She had come to the Inspection Office early and finished reading the booklets handed out by the Internal Affairs Office.

Of course, she knew the rules of the Inspection Office.

Just as Captain Xiao had said, insubordination was a grave offense within the Inspection Office.

Moreover, according to the booklets, the hierarchy of the Inspection Office was extremely strict, almost no different from that of the military.

This is the regulation of the Inspection Office.

Now that Xiao Tianhe was using this regulation to punish her, Xie Xiaojiu knew in her heart that she was truly in trouble.

In front of so many people, violating the regulations of the Inspection Office would inevitably be used by those above to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys.

An institution in its infancy needs to kill the chicken to scare the dogs; otherwise, there would be no rules to speak of, just a rabble.

In the face of this situation, she was powerless, without influence, and her strength was limited; such an individual would inevitably be sacrificed.

Moreover, being sacrificed was just that—no one would stand up for her.

After witnessing this scene, Xie Xiaojiu felt some regret in her heart.

If she had known earlier that joining the Inspection Office would lead to becoming a target to be made an example of, she would've been better off fleeing far away, not caring about the fate of the Xie family.

However, she hadn't anticipated that when faced with the overwhelming rule of the Inspection Office and filled with despair,

Jiang Ning would choose to stand up.

The intervention of a Deputy Commander was significant.

Instantly, the darkness in Xie Xiaojiu's heart dispersed, filled with hope.

Looking at Jiang Ning's back, Xie Xiaojiu also secretly felt wise about her previous decision.

If she hadn't chosen to rely on such a spirited Deputy Commander, who would have stood up for her today?

It is important to know that what Xiao Tianhe represented was the collective of the Martial Arts Garden.

Facing Xiao Tianhe was one thing, but the meaning behind doing so was entirely different.

It meant suddenly standing on the opposite side of all the students of the Martial Arts Garden.

...

At the entrance of the Inspection Office.

Watching Jiang Ning stand in front of Xie Xiaojiu.

Xiao Tianhe's face changed slightly, and the few teammates beside him also abruptly stopped their actions.

Jiang Ning, one of the four Deputy Commanders, had emerged from over ten captains to become a Deputy Commander.

In facing Yuan Fei, a strong dark horse, he displayed Sword Force and defeated him decisively.

They were all present yesterday, how could they not recognize Jiang Ning.

"Jiang Ning, what do you mean by this?" Xiao Tianhe spoke up.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning's figure suddenly moved.

In an instant,

A whirlwind arose from the flat ground.

Xiao Tianhe's expression turned to shock, drastically changing.

"How dare…"

"What are you doing…"

"Presumptuous…"

Seeing this scene, the students from the Martial Arts Garden immediately began to speak up, all with anger on their faces.

Among them, two people directly intercepted.

One of them was familiar to Jiang Ning, named Lv Renyao.

The other was a captain who had met with Jiang Ning the day before.

The next moment.

Boom—

The collision between flesh and flesh, the two who attempted to intercept were like ordinary people trying to block a galloping warhorse, and were sent flying.

Jiang Ning knocked away the two interceptors and arrived within three feet of Xiao Tianhe.

The moment Xiao Tianhe's fist collided with Jiang Ning, his expression once again drastically changed.

A power like a mountain tsunami erupted from within Jiang Ning and thunderously landed on his right arm.

All at once,

Xiao Tianhe heard the sound of bones twisting and muscle fascia tearing within his right arm.

"You…" Xiao Tianhe had just begun to speak when his voice abruptly cut off.

Because at that moment, Jiang Ning's five fingers had clasped his neck firmly like tiger's claws, locking down his windpipe, making it impossible to make a sound.

"As a captain, don't you know how to address someone as 'Deputy Commander'?" Jiang Ning spoke indifferently.

Then, he stared at Xiao Tianhe, "Where did you take the person you caught this morning!"

Xiao Tianhe was already red-faced, showing an expression of pain.

Because Jiang Ning's grip was so strong, he felt like his neck could be snapped at any moment.

Before reaching the Sixth Rank, one does not truly begin to temper their bones.

Even though Xiao Tianhe, at the Peak of the Eighth Grade Divine Power Realm, had bones far more durable than an ordinary person, in the face of an opponent of equal rank, the bones in the neck remained a fatal weakness.

And in the hands of Jiang Ning, even more so.

Xiao Tianhe could feel that with Jiang Ning's strength, it would be easy to break his neck and kill him on the spot!
