Chapter 300 - Chapter 300: Demonic Priest



“Meow!

The cat, which had been lying down, suddenly sat up. Its messy white beard trembled slightly with its movements.

Its nose twitched and it seemed to be sniffing something or sensing something. It looked in the direction where Gu Yanfei had left.

Gu Yanfei had already arrived at the entrance of the Tianyin Pavilion. She could vaguely hear the meowing of a cat.

Qing Guang seemed to be having a good time.

Gu Yanfei turned around and glanced at the second floor of the Tianyin Pavilion. She smiled and got into a carriage.

After Gu Yanfei sat down, the carriage went on its way.

The carriage shuttled through the intersecting streets and headed towards the palace.

There was a commotion outside the carriage, and the streets along the way were very noisy.

Gu Yanfei lifted the curtains with one hand and saw the commoners gathered in twos and threes, discussing the disappearance of the children last night.

“Have you heard? The missing children were taken to... that place.”

“I heard. A lord is sick, right?”

“That’s right, that’s right. It took the little girl a lot of effort to escape. Now, her father has run to the right door of Chang’an and knocked on the drum! ”

“This... Isn’t he courting death?”

“Sigh. You’re right. I just saw a team of officials heading towards the right gate of Chang’an.”

Gu Yanfei glanced at the people who were discussing animatedly and retracted her gaze calmly.

When the carriage arrived at Chang’an Street, there were even more people on the street. It was bustling with activity, and they were all walking towards the right gate of Chang’an.

The streets were congested with passers-by rubbing shoulders and walking forward slowly. However, when Gu Yanfei’s carriage passed by, someone automatically made a path for the carriage to pass through smoothly.

The carriage drove smoothly all the way to the right gate of Chang’an. The closer it was to the palace gate, the more people there were.

At this moment, hundreds of commoners had gathered in the square outside Chang’an’s right gate. There were the families of missing children, enthusiastic people who had followed them to express their support, and idle people who were watching the show. Standing at the front were Scholar Zhang and his daughter, as well as the middle-aged woman who had lost her son.

Confronting these indignant citizens was a group of imperial guards guarding the right gate of Chang’an.

These imperial guards wore bronze helmets and iron armor. They held spears in their hands and gave off a dignified aura that prevented strangers from approaching.

The leader of the imperial guards carried a long saber and warned indifferently, “Scholar, you have to consider carefully. Once you beat the drum, you must not have any regrets. Even if you go back on your word, you will still have to receive these 30 beatings.”

“It’s the law of the Great Jin Dynasty! ‘

His last sentence was powerful and intimidating.

The surrounding commoners were more or less suppressed by the imperial guard’s imposing manner, and they became much quieter, their gazes all fixed on Scholar Zhang.

Scholar Zhang was fearless. He held the girl’s hand and looked at the imperial guards with his head held high. He gritted his teeth and said resolutely, “I want to sue!”

He wanted to seek justice for his daughter and make things clear.

The middle-aged woman beside him also choked and echoed, “l want to sue too!”

As soon as she said the last word, she heard a rough male voice scold her angrily, “What are you suing for?!’

“Get out of the way, get out of the way!” More than 20 tall bailiffs ran over with long sabers in their hands. All of them had stern expressions on their faces and exuded an ill-intentioned aura.

The captain first cupped his hands at the imperial guard flag and smiled politely. “Leader Li, leave these unruly people to me.”

Leader Li looked hesitant.

It wasn’t a small matter to make a complaint. It would naturally be best if he could turn a big matter into a small one.

The surrounding commoners were in an uproar. Words like “imperial capital” ,

“military officer”, “beating Scholar Zhang” and so on drifted over with the wind.

When the chairman turned to face the ordinary people, he changed his expression and looked at everyone arrogantly. “This is an important place in the capital. Are you trying to cause trouble?”

A hunchbacked old man bowed and cupped his fists at the head of the class. He explained humbly, “Sir, we’re not trying to cause trouble. Some children are missing... Aiyo!”

Before he could finish speaking, the old man was rudely kicked down by a burly and fat bailiff. He fell flat on his back and screamed repeatedly.

“Isn’t it just losing some beggars and refugees?” The class president shouted angrily, ‘Their lives combined can’t even compare to a finger of the noble!”

Scholar Zhang, the middle-aged woman, and the other commoners were deeply hurt by the class president’s words. Their simple faces flushed red, and their eyes burned with anger.

“Outrageous! ”

A male voice filled with righteous indignation sounded from the crowd.

‘What right do you have to hit people?!” A young man in gray raised his chin and roared angrily at the officials, “Aren’t the lives of our people lives?!”

The other commoners were also agitated by the unreasonableness of the bailiffs. They echoed, ‘That’s right, that’s right!”

“So many children were lost overnight, and the authorities didn’t care.”

“He doesn’t treat us as humans at all!”

The commoners were getting more and more agitated. They were furious and indignant. They were all holding their breaths.

The class leader snorted disdainfully and raised his hand to point at the clamoring commoners. “All of you unruly people, retreat. Otherwise, I’ll kill you without mercy!”

As soon as he said the last word, the bailiffs he brought with him pulled out their long sabers.

More than ten long sabers shone with a cold light. When the tip of the saber was pointed at someone, it made one’s heart turn cold.

There was a strong smell of gunpowder in the air. The two sides were confronting each other, and it seemed like a fight would break out at any moment. It seemed that someone’s blood would splatter on the spot at any moment.

The commoners present had never seen such a murderous scene before. They were more or less frightened, and most of them didn’t dare to move.

Seeing that both sides were at daggers drawn, Boss Li was afraid that there would be a bloodbath that wouldn’t end well. Just as he was about to step forward, the captain had already walked towards him and whispered into his ear, “Boss Li, they’re just commoners. They won’t cause any big trouble. Our Lord will remember your kindness.”

President Li frowned as he looked at the people on both sides, weighing the pros and cons.

The two sides were in a deadlock. An ordinary-looking young man in a rough green robe walked out, revealing a corner of his black inner robe at the collar. He tried his best to mediate the situation and persuaded Scholar Zhang,

“Brother Scholar, I think we should forget about this matter.”

“Shangqing Spiritual Master said that everything in the world is predestined.

Your daughter is fine now, so why are you looking for trouble?”

“You still know how to speak human language.” The fat bailiff smiled disdainfully. He waved his long saber and pointed it at everyone. “The eldest princess’s life is in danger. Saving the princess is a blessing. You unruly people don’t know what’s good for you.”

“That’s right, that’s right.” The green-robed youth nodded repeatedly. “Shangqing Spiritual Master is a living immortal in the world. He took the children’s heart blood to refine pills for the princess. That’s also a blessing for the children. Everyone has their own fate!”

These few words were like adding fuel to the fire. The commoners present were even more enraged, and their faces were burning with anger.

The people didn’t fight with the officials, not to mention that this case involved the nobles of the Tian Family. However, this scholar and woman only wanted to sound the drum and voice their grievances.

They originally thought that Shangqing Spiritual Master was a living immortal, but now, it seems that he was just a demon who had colluded with the powerful..
