Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao

What he didn’t know was that Ling Han had used Spiritual power. With his endless battle experiences, he was able to achieve a similar effect.

“What?!” Everyone’s expressions changed drastically.

Hell was an organization of assassins, and was strictly targeted by the nation — though some people did indeed have connections with the Hell Organization, and hired them to eliminate some people that they themselves could not kill. However, who would dare to publicly admit it?

If one was found to be associated with an assassin’s organization, then even if it was an Imperial Prince… hehe, with how wise and mighty the present Emperor was, it was guaranteed that he would also be executed.

Yang Ziqing, had such great nerve and also such stupidity.

“No, no, no, he’s talking nonsense. I don’t know anyone from Hell Organization, and I didn’t hire someone to commit murder!” Yang Ziqing hurriedly shouted. He had to draw a clear dividing line between himself and Hell Organization. Otherwise, he would die a tragic death.

“Then why don’t you explain? How did you know that I was targeted by an assassin from Hell Organization?” Ling Han said slowly.

“How would I know that you were being pursued by an assassin from Hell Organization? What does that have to do with me?” Yang Ziqing said. However, he was completely twisting the facts.

Who asked him to have a slip of the tongue, and in front of so many people at that? How was he supposed to explain himself?

Ling Han smiled calmly, “According to the laws of the Majestic Empire, how should we deal with someone colluding with assassin organizations, hiring people to commit murder?”

Without waiting for anyone to answer, he continued, “He is considered a traitor, and should be executed!”

Ling Han paused, then said, “I am Xuanqing Banner’s deputy captain, and have the power to enforce the law. Now… I will execute you!”

He tossed Yan Jun to one side, and strode towards Yang Ziqing. His killing intent blazed, causing one to shiver.

“Yi, he’s actually Xuanqing Banner’s deputy captain?”

“Strange, how can a mere deputy captain come here?”

“Can’t you see that he’s with Pan Hu? He should have been brought here by Pan Hu.”

“Oh, that’s true.”

Everyone finally “knew” Ling Han’s identity, yet only thought that he was Pan Hu’s lackey.

When Pan Hu heard this, he gritted his teeth internally. How could he be qualified? Ling Han was an alchemy prodigy, and even the City Lord praised him endlessly.

‘You people are blind!’

He was very pleased with himself, and did not have the slightest intention of explaining. Otherwise, if everyone went to curry Ling Han’s favour, wouldn’t that be stealing his place?

The situation right now was the most ideal, as he could obtain “exclusive favor”.

“Save me! Save me!” Yang Ziqing was extremely terrified, and shouted at his surroundings.

However, who would pay attention to him at this moment?

Collaborating with an assassin’s organization—this crime was too heavy, and no one could bear it. In fact, no noble clan could bear it.

“Young Master Jun, save me! I’m doing this for you!” Yang Ziqing could only place his hopes on Yan Jun. This was his only life-saving straw.

‘What?’

Everyone was curious. This was a great piece of news; so Yan Jun was also involved?

Yan Jun had just gotten his breath back, and when he heard these words, he almost passed out.

Who dared to have the slightest relation with an assassin’s organization? That was an action of courting death.

“Absolute nonsense!” he said coldly, drawing a clear dividing line. In any case, he didn’t leave behind a shred of evidence. The connection with the Hell Organization was all done by Yang Ziqing alone.

Thus, as long as he didn’t leak anything, he wouldn’t be dragged into this matter.

“Yan Jun, you’re so ruthless!” Yang Ziqing shouted harshly. “It was clearly you who was jealous of Ling Han’s relationship with Banner Lord Lian, and told me to hire someone to commit murder. Now, you’re actually going to deny it?”

For the sake of his own life, he could only throw caution to the winds.

‘Oh!’

Everyone released a long exclamation of shock. So that was the case. This completely made sense.

—Who did not know that Yan Jun was currently courting Lian Xuerong of Xuanqing Banner? Thus, it was reasonable for him to be jealous, and hire someone to commit murder. En, it was completely illegal.
