Chapter 60: Yu Banxias Betrayal (1/2)

”Today's meal disciples are quite diligent. They came at this time.”

Jiang Li thought about it and felt that since he did not call for service, it should be Yan Hong's subordinate coming to deliver food.

Although he no longer needed to eat, he still kept this habit to prevent others from seeing through him.

The door creaked open.

It was Lu Qianqian.

'Oh goodness, she likes me! Should I reject her? What should I tell Yu Banxia after this?'

Several thoughts flashed through Jiang Li's mind. But in the next second, Lu Qianqian directly knelt down.

”Brother Jiang Li, please save Banxia!”

Lu Qianqian's action surprised Jiang Li. He hurriedly helped her up and brought her into the house.

”Sister Qianqian, you can't do that. If you have anything to say, tell me inside.”

Jiang Li helped Lu Qianqian to the tea table in the house and sat down. Only then did he notice that her eyes were red and swollen. She must have been crying for a while.

”Don't worry! What happened? Tell me slowly, what happened to Yu Banxia?”

”Ba… Banxia and I…”

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Before Lu Qianqian could catch her breath, the sound of someone slamming the door could be heard again.

This time, the person was even more impolite. The wooden door frame was smashed until it shook.

Jiang Li immediately frowned.

”Who is it?” He asked loudly.

The sound of the door being smashed paused. Immediately, there was the sound of swords being unsheathed. Clearly, the people outside were not good people. There were at least seven or eight of them.

However, they did not directly kill their way in. Instead, someone replied loudly.

”Outer Sect Law Enforcement Hall! We are under orders to search the area! Outer Sect disciple Jiang Li, open the door immediately!”

The Outer Sect Law Enforcement Hall… Jiang Li's heart sank. He looked at Lu Qianqian, who was sitting beside him with a terrified and uneasy expression. It seemed that her problem was related to the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall outside.

However, what could Yu Banxia have done?

The chain around his waist automatically landed in his hand. Jiang Li raised his hand and waved it. Spiritual qi blew at the door bolt, and the door opened.

A group of ten disciples from the Law Enforcement Hall who were dressed in pitch-black disciple robes entered in a single file. They surrounded Jiang Li very rudely.

”The Law Enforcement Hall is under orders to search. I hope you can cooperate!”

The leader of the group had a fierce and sharp aura. He did not hide his Foundation Establishment cultivation at all.

”Lu Qianqian! Why are you here! You're not allowed to leave the room until we find out the truth!”

That person pointed the knife at the tip of Lu Qianqian's nose. It was just a step away from touching her skin, causing her to shiver in fear.

”Senior Brother, there's no need to be like this.”

”What crime have we committed that requires the Law Enforcement Hall to go through such trouble?”

Jiang Li stood at the side and directly stretched out his hand to grab the blade. He then pushed the tip of the blade to the side by 20cm before he spoke to this Senior Brother of the Law Enforcement Hall.

The captain of the Law Enforcement Hall's team revealed a surprised expression.

Although he did not use spiritual qi, he was still a Foundation Establishment cultivator after all. He already had his Dao Foundation, but this mere mid-stage Qi Refinement realm cultivator pushed his blade away. This guy was really strong physically.

”You don't know?” He asked this, but his eyes were always staring at Jiang Li, trying to find any trace of panic or other suspicious expressions on Jiang Li's face.

”I don't know. I have to go to the Alchemy Hall every day to help Master Red Hair refine pills. I rarely pay attention to the news of the outer sect.”

”Junior Sister Qianqian is my friend. She came to find me today, but before she could say anything, you entered.”

Jiang Li subtly moved the bottom of his robe, revealing the registered disciple identity token of the Alchemy Hall.

He did not know what had happened, but he was unhappy with the actions of the Law Enforcement Hall.

However, the Law Enforcement Hall represented the sect, and their strength was far above his. Jiang Li knew that he could not do anything about it, so he could only use this method to seize a certain opportunity to speak.

Sure enough, after the captain saw the token, his cold expression slightly improved.

The long blade that was currently secretly contesting with Jiang Li was withdrawn with a swoosh, and only then did he speak.

”Outer sect disciple Yu Banxia betrayed the sect! He's guilty of a heinous crime!”

”All relevant personnel must be investigated by the Law Enforcement Hall! If they resist, we are ordered to kill them without mercy, understand?”

It was clear that the identity of a registered disciple was still not enough to make the other party pay attention to him. After retracting his long blade, he said coldly.

”Yu Banxia defected? How is that possible!” Jiang Li was shocked that Yu Banxia had actually betrayed the sect. That was something he would never have expected.

The other party had no motive, and most importantly, he did not have the strength to do such a thing. Could it be that the sect could not control a small Qi Refinement realm cultivator?

Therefore, his first reaction was disbelief.

Jiang Li turned to look at Lu Qianqian again. However, her eyes were dark, and she cried even harder.

What…?! The world was changing too quickly.

”Do I have to lie to you? We need to search your house. You can choose to resist.”

The people from the Law Enforcement Hall were not interested in explaining to him. After all, it was their own decision whether to explain or not.

”Go ahead!”
