This old Daoist was obviously warm-hearted and wanted to help him, but things had already come to this point and he couldn't drag the old Daoist down with him.
Gongsun Wuji was, after all, the commander of the imperial city guards. Although these Heaven Realm experts were very secretive and rarely showed themselves in the world, it did not mean that they did not exist. In the current imperial city, there were at least ten Heaven Realm experts hidden, and at least five of them represented the royal family.
"Senior, I am very grateful that you were able to speak up for me today." However, things seem to have gotten out of hand. I think it's better for Senior to leave first.
Ye Fan came over to the old Taoist's side and muttered to him.
"What is it? Are you afraid that I will suffer? What a good boy. "Hur hur, let me tell you, I am determined to meddle in today's matters. Don't worry, I will definitely uphold justice for you!"
The old Daoist looked at Ye Fan and could not help but laugh. This was fine, but with Ye Fan's persuasion, he became even more determined.
"Greetings, Commander Gongsun!"
When the Patrol Officer saw the Golden Armor Commander, he hastily went to salute him. The surrounding City Guards also followed suit.
"Inspector Zhou, what happened? Why is there a need to send out a summoning signal? I was just nearby, so I brought someone over to take a look. "
Gongsun Wuji looked at Investigator Zhou and asked, then he glanced at the plaza. When he saw Ye Fan and the old Daoist Priest who were being surrounded by the city guards, his eyes lit up, before Investigator Zhou could even report, he quickly took two steps forward and stood in front of the old Daoist and bowed deeply.
"Old Mr. Nan, why are you here? When did you arrive in the capital?
It was obvious that Gongsun Wuji was very respectful to this old Daoist and asked him this question.
"Lord Gongsun is in charge of the Imperial Capital's defense. Usually, it can be said that he has to deal with thousands of matters everyday. I do not dare to disturb him."
The old Daoist said indifferently.
Gongsun Wuji immediately realized that there was something wrong with the old Daoist's words. He shouted at Inspector Zhou, "Inspector Zhou, what exactly happened here?"
"Reporting to the great commander, it's like this ?"
Investigator Zhou quickly went forward and explained everything that had happened. His face was covered with sweat as he spoke. He knew that he had caused a great disaster and offended someone he could not afford to offend!
"Bastard!" If old mister Nan personally came out to testify, how could I deceive you?! Hurry up and control those drunkards and the guards of that scum named Ma! As for the two who died, they were directly thrown into the unmarked cemetery to be fed to the wolves! "
Gongsun Wuji said angrily.
"Lord Gongsun, there is no need to be so angry. Although Captain Ma and this little commander did not do things right, they died because of me. I think I should be the one to bury them."
Seeing that the two bodies were actually going to be dragged out to be fed to the wolves, Ye Fan could not help but cry out in pity in his heart, and directly asked Gongsun Wuji.
"This little brother is truly a virtuous person. This is good too, I'll leave it to you to handle."
Gongsun Wuji looked at Ye Fan and his face immediately filled with smiles. Captain Ma and the little commander who died were city guards after all, and he wasn't really willing to let them die in the wilderness, but he had no choice but to say this in front of Old Master Nan. Now that Ye Fan had actually offered to bury the two of them, he was naturally extremely willing.
However, if he knew that Ye Fan wanted to use these two corpses as nourishment, even if he were to beat him to death, he would definitely not be willing.
But Ye Fan did not care about that, and directly kept the two corpses into his storage ring.
Ever since he had arrived at the imperial city, Ye Fan had felt that his cultivation was simply too weak. He had deeply understood the meaning behind those words: In the imperial city, the Awakened Soul Realm was only the starting point.
The imperial city was a place filled with hidden dragons and crouching tigers. It would be difficult to move even a single step without strength.
"Mr. Nan, do you think this treatment is satisfactory?"
Gongsun Wuji asked Old mister Nan.
"Lord Gongsun, controlling these people is a given, but are we also going to find the culprit so that he can clear this little brother of his grievances?"
Old mister Nan nodded and said to Gongsun Wuji.
"Of course! Pass my order, surround Taibai Jinxing, and don't let off a suspicious person. The torture class will bring those drunkards down, and thoroughly investigate who ordered them to do this! "Later on, we will go to the Great White Tower to identify the person. Those who do will be rewarded!"
Gongsun Wuji nodded and said.
"Old mister Nan, how long are you planning to stay in the imperial capital this time?"
After everything had been arranged, Gongsun Wuji asked the old Daoist.
"This time, I really have no choice but to pester that little disciple of mine. I might have to stay for a bit longer."
Old mister Nan said in a deep voice.
"This is great. I can also go to your place to learn from you."
Gongsun Wuji said in a deep voice.
"Hur hur, we are always welcome."
Old Mr. Nan laughed.
"Reporting to the commander, we have a drunkard!"
Not long after, a city guard came to report.
