Grinding Cultivation Toward Martial Saint

Chapter 5 Visit the Mountain Top



Moon Pavilion.

A squad of soldiers marched toward the newly opened Moon Pavilion.

Just stepping into the grand hall of Moon Pavilion,

"Hurry and leave! Hurry and leave!! I am here to seize the Moon Pavilion. Anyone who continues to linger shall be thrown into the dungeon," the soldiers began to drive out the diners, who promptly put down their utensils and rushed out the doors.

It was just noon, and there were not many people dining in the Moon Pavilion, so under the expulsion of the soldiers, the vast Moon Pavilion suddenly became empty.

Thud, thud, thud—

A series of footsteps came from the second floor.

"What are you trying to do?" Tong Xiuyun spoke up.

"Manager Tong, you're in trouble!" said a middle-aged man accompanying the soldiers, with skullduggery written all over his face, over forty years old.

In front of this middle-aged man was a young man of imposing appearance and extraordinary looks.

He waved his hand, "Take her away!"

"Sir, you are wise!" the devious-looking middle-aged man immediately exclaimed with great joy.

"Huang Dazheng, you're breaking the rules!!" Tong Xiuyun spoke, her expression furious.

"What rules am I breaking? You, Tong Xiuyun, are suspected of child trafficking and murder. As a good citizen, can't I report your crimes?" Huang Dazheng raised his eyebrow and smiled, revealing a set of yellow teeth.

Immediately,

He watched as several soldiers stepped forward and arrested Tong Xiuyun decisively, his expression inevitably proud.

Business battle, it's just that plain and simple.

It doesn't matter if you can't compete with Moon Pavilion in business; just find a powerful backer, and directly arrest and frame someone.

Although Tong Xiuyun also had influential support, how could her backing compare to that of this young man from Dongling City?

One should know, this promising young man was the new darling of Luoshui County.

One of the commanders of the Inspection Office.

The personnel of the Inspection Office wielded the power of life and death, with authority to execute first and report later.

From officials to common citizens, all were under their jurisdiction.

The power was indeed immense.

Not to mention that his backer was also an official of Standard Ninth Grade, one of the commanders in the Inspection Office,

And possessed the strength at the Peak of Martial Arts Eighth Grade.

At this moment, being escorted by the soldiers, walking past the young man, Tong Xiuyun's heart sank suddenly.

How could she not recognize him? The leader among the young men, one of the newly appointed commanders of the Inspection Office.

Ranked as a Standard Ninth Grade official, possessing the prowess of Peak of Martial Arts Eighth Grade.

In front of him, the support she had relied on previously was simply unshakeable.

Not to mention, this person was also a student from the Martial Arts Garden of Dongling City.

In the Inspection Office of Luoshui County, students from the Martial Arts Garden represented a tremendous force.

Because among the more than ten commanders, students from the Martial Arts Garden made up seventy to eighty percent.

Each one of these people held the strength of Martial Arts Eighth Grade.

Not to mention the large number of Martial Arts Ninth Grade students below them.

Thinking of this, Tong Xiuyun couldn't help feeling a bit desperate.

However, she soon calmed down.

Her gaze shifted to the side, looking at the lad at the entrance.

She immediately made a meaningful eye signal to the lad.

The implication was clear; she wanted the lad to go fetch help.

"I wonder if Little Jiu knows about this, can he help me!" Tong Xiuyun muttered to herself internally.

On the other side,

The young man looked at Huang Dazheng, "How many other taverns are there, lead the way, I'll go seal them!"

"Thank you, sir!" Huang Dazheng was extremely delighted.

He suddenly felt that sending out the family heirloom last night was a very wise decision.

That so-called family heirloom had been useless in his hands, his father's hands, and his grandfather's hands.

Since that was the case, keeping the family heirloom was meaningless.

Better to give it away like now, as with the heirloom given away,

He gained the favor of this prominent figure, which resulted in today's business battle.

It didn't matter if he couldn't surpass the Moon Pavilion, as long as Tong Xiuyun was arrested, then Moon Pavilion would naturally be gone.

Moreover, with this figure's leadership today, all other taverns could be sealed, and the people inside taken away.

After today, the tavern industry of Luoshui County would be monopolized by him.

With this powerful backer, Huang Dazheng could truly become wealthy...

Coming out from the Moon Pavilion,

Escorted by the soldiers, they took Tong Xiuyun toward the Wealth Building.

Wealth Building, another business owned by the Cheng family.

Moments later,

At the entrance of Wealth Building,

Since Cheng Ran and his father happened to be inside the tavern, they were directly captured.

As they moved, the soldiers behind quickly sealed the doors and windows and posted sealing strips.

As for the civilians gathered around, they only dared to stealthily watch from a distance, not daring to get too close in front of this group of soldiers.

"Aunt Tong!" Seeing Tong Xiuyun, Cheng Ran immediately spoke.

"Shut up!!" A nearby soldier instantly chided.

Cheng Ran's father immediately shook his head quietly at Cheng Ran.

Seeing that the situation was beyond their control, Cheng Ran fell silent immediately.

At that moment, Tong Xiuyun also gave Cheng Ran a comforting look, as if to say, don't worry, I've gone to ask for help!

"Continue?" the young man looked at Huang Dazheng.

Huang Dazheng nodded firmly, "Continue, thank you for your trouble today, sir!"

"Lead the way! The sooner we finish capturing, the sooner it's over!" the young man said indifferently.

"Yes, sir!"

...

Inspection Office.

"Sir!" Dressed in black, Xie Xiaojiu bowed slightly towards Jiang Ning.

At that moment, Jiang Ning was seated in the inner hall of his own courtyard.

As Deputy Commander, he had his own private courtyard within the Inspection Office.

The courtyard covered several hundred meters.

After having just toured the vast grounds of the Inspection Office, he had come to his own courtyard.
