Chapter 1139 - 943: Investigation Pursuit (Part 3)

After pushing aside his fellow interrogators, he mimicked a bow to Young Master Nan and said, "Let me apologize to Young Master Nan on behalf of everyone. I hope you can understand. We're just doing our duty, and since there was a report, we had to take some action."

Rising up, he curiously asked, "With such a false accusation, did Young Master Nan offend someone?"

Young Master Nan smiled slightly, "Perhaps, but it's fine once it's clarified."

Some things are known to all, and he didn't need to break the facade. As a wealthy man, when in a weak position, forcing the opponent into a corner was unnecessary.

Seeing the other party put on such a big show, he knew he was not in mortal danger yet.

However, he was not a pushover. The other party might have an explanation for the Heavenly Court, but not for him. He remembered this person, and unless he ruined the other's home completely, he wouldn't be Young Master Nan.

Keeping a harmonious relationship is indeed essential, but if he had no thunderous means and anyone could bully him without consequence, how could he hold onto such vast wealth?

Clearly, those driving this individual did not care about his life or death.

In confrontations, it's normal for someone to be used as a pawn and sent to their death.

Seeing Young Master Nan willing to forgive, the general immediately scolded his men, "Why are you still daydreaming? You caught the wrong person; release him quickly!"

Thus, Young Master Nan regained his freedom, and none of his belongings were moved.

After apologizing, the group of soldiers swiftly flew away.

Young Master Nan remained highly vigilant, aware that the group earlier was ignorant and exploited fools. The matter was far from over. He quickly took out the Mother-child Talisman to contact Wuyu Trading House.

But there was still no timely response, echoing the mishap encountered during the Ten Thousand Laws Cave Heaven. It immediately occurred to him that something wasn't right. He swiftly darted out, trying to break through the restriction area to send an alert.

Yet before he could fly far, a swift shadow caught him like a little chick, holding him away.

There was no sign of a struggle, rendering him unable to fight back at all.

A monk like him, lacking cultivation and yet to reach the Heavenly Immortal Realm, falling victim to a surprise attack by a master of the Heavenly Immortal Upper Realm, had such an outcome not unexpectedly.

Soon after, two individuals flew over, quickly taking control of Young Master Nan and stuffing him into a sack, then the group hurriedly sped away...

Holding the Compass while traveling, Wu Jinliang suddenly said, "The light moved slightly."

As soon as the words fell, the group all simultaneously looked ahead into the sky, where they saw a team from the Heavenly Court intending to fly past them at an angle.

Shi Chun's eyes sparkled, swiftly intercepting ahead of them.

Seeing someone blocking the way, the leading general shouted angrily from afar, "How dare you!"

Upon seeing the level of those people, Shi Chun, to avoid trouble, directly took out his Commander Token, showing it head-on.

The Token was not something just anyone could possess, and it was clearly a token from the Heavenly Court.

The group of aggressive fellows immediately quieted down, quickly halting in mid-air.

Unaware of the newcomer's identity, the imposing aura initially projected by the group was instantly retracted like kittens.

"Greetings, my lord," the leading general hastily saluted, followed by the others, after which the general cautiously inquired, "You appear unfamiliar, my lord, may I ask where you are stationed?"

While speaking, he glanced at Wu Jinliang and the others.

Shi Chun, putting away the token, couldn't be bothered with nonsense and directly questioned, "Where is the person you captured?"

The leading general's mind tightened, carefully responding, "It was a misunderstanding; we caught the wrong person and released him upfront. Someone reported he was a fugitive, but we had no choice."

Shi Chun coldly said, "If he's not a fugitive, who is he?"

"He is Namo Yu, the owner of Wuyu Trading House. We've confirmed he is indeed not a fugitive," replied the leading general.
