Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation

"It's my father." Han Qiqi quickly stood up as well.

Zuo Shanyi looked bewildered. He considered himself to have acted appropriately and respectfully here, and Han Liudao had always treated him well.

Why did today's tone seem so angry?

"Don't worry, I'll be back soon." Even though Zuo Shanyi was bewildered, he had to quickly go see Han Liudao.

"I'll go with you." Han Qiqi hurriedly said.

When Zuo Shanyi and Han Qiqi arrived at the Law Enforcement Hall of North Immortal Corner, there were seven people present.

Besides the Immortal Lord Han Liudao and the Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall, An Qiuzheng, there was also a young man and four others, both men and women.

Zuo Shanyi did not know these people, but Han Qiqi's scalp felt numb, as she recognized the young man and the man and woman beside him.

She understood why her father was so furious.

The young man had delicate features, looking gentle like jade, and carried no trace of worldly affairs.

But Han Qiqi knew very well what kind of existence this person was.

The Master of the Immortal Surveillance Department of the Great Dao Corridor, Jie Kuangren.

Jie Kuangren was far from being the gentle jade he appeared to be, in contrast, he was ruthless in his killings.

The Great Dao Corridor's forces were widespread, but there was one force that transcended all others.

That force was the Immortal Surveillance Department of the Great Dao Corridor.

The Immortal Surveillance Department was established to uphold the ten thousand laws of the Great Dao Corridor.

Many officials within the Immortal Surveillance Department were from various forces of the Great Dao Corridor, but this did not affect the department's authority and status within the corridor.

Once upon a time, there was a force far surpassing the others in the Great Dao Corridor.

Even the factions like North Immortal Corner and West Ruins Immortal Corner were insignificant compared to this force.

That force was the Demigod Hall of the Great Dao Corridor.

As the Demigod Hall grew stronger, they began to act above the laws of the Great Dao Corridor, ignoring its ten thousand rules.

This angered the law enforcers of the ten thousand laws—the Immortal Surveillance Department.

Jie Kuangren, alone with a sword, annihilated the Demigod Hall, slaughtering tens of thousands within it.

Thus, the once famous Demigod Hall in the Great Dao Corridor vanished overnight.

Because Han Qiqi knew the prowess of Jie Kuangren, she would never be fooled by his gentle and jade-like exterior.

Normally, the Immortal Surveillance Department of the Great Dao Corridor would send the man and woman behind Jie Kuangren.

Their names were simple: the man was called Ji Yi, the woman was called Quan Er.

This time, not only did Jie Kuangren send Ji Yi and Quan Er, but he also came here himself.

Clearly, this highlighted the importance of North Immortal Corner.

After all, North Immortal Corner was one of the top forces within the Great Dao Corridor.

"Han Qiqi of North Immortal Corner respectfully greets the Master, Inspector Ji, Inspector Quan." Han Qiqi bowed respectfully, her tone full of humility.

She had a vague guess about the matter, for besides Jie Kuangren, Ji Yi, and Quan Er, there were two other men.

These two men had the cultivation of Luo Tian Immortal, but their faces were blackened and their bodies were permeated with the aura of Poison Dao, indicating severe poisoning.

She had seen this poison before. It was the same potent and terrifying poison that Zuo Shanyi had been poisoned with earlier.

Could it be that Master Jie had come here to borrow the Wanfa Pool for detoxification?

Looking at her father's attitude and Master Jie's demeanor, it didn't seem quite likely.

Jie Kuangren nodded at Han Qiqi, then his gaze fell upon Zuo Shanyi. After a moment, he looked at the two Luo Tian Immortals: "Is this the person?"

The two Luo Tian Immortals quickly replied, "Reporting to Master, it is indeed this person. When he poisoned us, we did not notice. Only later did we discover that he had poisoned us..."

Before the two Luo Tian Immortals could finish their sentence, they spewed black blood from their mouths, pointed at Zuo Shanyi, and collapsed with faces full of resentment.

Zuo Shanyi had long figured it out, he understood clearly in his heart.

These two had been poisoned the same way he had. If it wasn't Ding Huan who did this, he would be willing to cut off his own head.

No need to ask, Ding Huan had transformed into his likeness to poison these two, and these two fools hadn't realized it at all, and he had no way to explain it.

Jie Kuangren coldly stared at Zuo Shanyi. Although he did not make a move, his powerful presence was so oppressive that it almost suffocated Zuo Shanyi.

The poisoned individuals came here, spoke a sentence, and then died. If this wasn't silencing witnesses, what was?

Zuo Shanyi was sure that Jie Kuangren's strength far exceeded Han Liudao's, perhaps he was even a Quasi-Saint.

"Master, if you are willing to give me a chance to explain, I, Zuo Shanyi, will definitely clarify this matter." Zuo Shanyi didn't explain immediately but requested an opportunity to do so.

He understood the ten thousand laws, which had not collapsed in the Great Dao Corridor because before them, everyone was equal and had the right to speak.

At least on the surface, everyone had the right to speak, so he was sure that Jie Kuangren wouldn't listen to just one side.

Of course, this right was conditional upon not acting first.

"Speak." Jie Kuangren uttered just one word.

Zuo Shanyi respectfully made a salute, "I was poisoned in the same manner, and luckily joined North Immortal Corner, enduring several months to barely detoxify.

I haven't left North Immortal Corner a single step in these months. During this period, I only sent a message to my Master about how to detoxify.

My Master replied, saying he had detoxified and was now traveling the Great Dao Corridor, telling me not to worry."

Jie Kuangren's gaze shifted to Han Liudao.

Han Liudao immediately stood up and said, "I can confirm this. Since Zuo Shanyi came to North Immortal Corner, he has not left the Immortal Lord's mansion area, and the Array's surveillance attests to this."

Han Qiqi quickly added, "Recently, Zuo Shanyi has primarily been detoxifying, and then engaging in Dao discussions with me. He couldn't have left here to poison others."

Zuo Shanyi continued, "Only my Master, my senior brother, and I have witnessed this poison. My Master and senior brother are both good-hearted, and they wouldn't use this poison..."

"You lied just now." Jie Kuangren's icy gaze turned to Zuo Shanyi.

When Zuo Shanyi mentioned that his Master and senior brother were kind-hearted, the Daoist Rhythm in his aura slightly fluctuated, which was undeniable to Jie Kuangren.

"Zuo Shanyi, you dare lie?" Han Liudao roared, his murderous intent enveloping Zuo Shanyi instantly.

It was clear that if Zuo Shanyi answered incorrectly, Han Liudao would kill him.

To Han Liudao, this was no joke.

The precedent set by the Demigod Hall was a warning. He wouldn't let North Immortal Corner follow in their footsteps.

Zuo Shanyi's face turned pale, and he stammered, "Sorry, I, I..."

"This is your last chance to explain everything you said carefully." Jie Kuangren's tone grew colder.

"My junior brother, why can't you just speak the truth since it's not your doing?" Han Qiqi's eyes turned red.

She was disappointed in Zuo Shanyi, wondering why he had to lie instead of just telling the truth.

Zuo Shanyi gritted his teeth and said, "My Master is extremely kind-hearted, but my senior brother, Ding Huan, has a somewhat heavy killing intent. He once destroyed an Immortal Clan over a minor matter.

Back then, my Master wanted to expel him from the Immortal Sect, but I couldn't bear it and pleaded to keep him. This time, my Master was poisoned, and he volunteered to find Divine Antidote Pills for my Master..."

"Brother Zuo, I can't believe you hid this about such a person..." Han Qiqi's tone was clearly filled with strong disapproval.

Zuo Shanyi didn't reply, his mood visibly low.

It was clear he suspected his senior brother of this deed, but he couldn't betray him.

"Why did these two poisoned individuals persistently survive, only to die upon seeing you?" Jie Kuangren's tone remained icy.

Zuo Shanyi's face grew pale, "I, I... I indeed can do this. My Master taught me a Divine Skill called the Dao of Poison Collection.

This Divine Skill, after implanting the Poison Dao Rhythm into the opponent, can use familiar sensory perceptions of the poisoned individual to trigger the Poison Dao Rhythm."

Zuo Shanyi didn't need to say more; everyone understood what he meant.

Someone had transformed into Zuo Shanyi to poison these two, and now that they saw Zuo Shanyi's appearance again, their emotions triggered the Poison Dao Rhythm leading to their death. novelbuddy.cσ๓

Zuo Shanyi's Master could impart this Poison Dao skill to Zuo Shanyi, naturally, it could be taught to his senior brother.

Though Zuo Shanyi was forced to reveal these details, in reality, every word he said pointed to Ding Huan as the poisoner.

"Is it the Great Poison Dao Skill among the Three Thousand Great Daos?" Jie Kuangren was extremely shocked.

Zuo Shanyi wasn't lying because he knew the Dao of Poison Collection. Though he couldn't perform it, he understood it was part of the Great Poison Dao Skill.

"Yes." Zuo Shanyi bowed his head, his mood increasingly low.

It seemed he knew who the poisoner was.

Jie Kuangren also had a rough idea. Since it wasn't Zuo Shanyi who did it, and the poisoner had transformed into Zuo Shanyi's likeness.

Clearly, Zuo Shanyi's senior brother was the main suspect.

"While I investigate the matter thoroughly, you are still highly suspicious. I will temporarily detain you at North Immortal Corner for ninety days, awaiting the investigation's outcome. Do you have any objections?"

Jie Kuangren stared at Zuo Shanyi.

Nobody had dared to poison anyone within the Great Dao Corridor for many years. This act must be dealt with thoroughly, or the arduously maintained order of the corridor would be destroyed.

Zuo Shanyi felt neither joy nor sorrow, just bowed in respect, "I am willing to accept this, Master."

His heart was filled with rage; although he had indirectly pointed out that Ding Huan was the poisoner, he knew Ding Huan's scheme had succeeded.

At least, within these ninety days, he wouldn't be eligible for the Immortal Lord's promotion.

Now he could only hope that Jie Kuangren would kill Ding Huan, giving him some relief.

He also understood that this hope was slim. Jie Kuangren appeared talented, calm, and stern.

In reality, Jie Kuangren was merely a brute relying on his strength. If he could kill Ding Huan, Zuo Shanyi would be willing to eat dirt.

...

Great Dao Corridor Square.

If the elimination round made the Eternal Desolation Divine Power Academy famous.

Now the academy was at its peak, as four rounds of the fighting competition had passed, and Eternal Desolation Divine Power Academy still firmly held four spots in the top ten.

This wasn't the most shocking; the most heart-stopping fact was that disciples of Eternal Desolation Divine Power Academy occupied the top three spots and the fifth place.

The elimination round merely revealed the four disciples of the competitive class at Eternal Desolation Divine Power Academy possessed powerful Immortal Essence.

In the fighting competition, everyone realized the immense and terrifying divine powers of these four participating disciples from Eternal Desolation Divine Power Academy.

Especially Ji Xing, whose blade force of the flowing sands was unstoppable even in three rounds.

Do you think Eternal Desolation Divine Power Academy excels only in fighting?

The top positions in the first three rounds of the Array competition still belonged to Eternal Desolation Divine Power Academy, holding the first and third places.

In the Artifact competition's three rounds, Lei Zuocheng from Eternal Desolation Divine Power Academy remained in second place.

In the three rounds of the talismanic competition, Haoyi from Eternal Desolation Divine Power Academy rose to first place.

With such strength, Eternal Desolation Divine Power Academy's fame was inevitable.
