The stolen magic is a bit magical

They arrived at the sect's forbidden area without anyone stopping them.

They landed successfully on the main peak.

Inside the hall, Li Daxiu stared at the dozen or so people who suddenly appeared under the moonlight, his eyes gleaming brightly.

Lin Xiaosu flipped her hand, and the Chief Inspector's Seal swept across the sky, illuminating the main hall of the sect's main peak.

Li Daxiu slowly stood up: "Lord Su, we've finally arrived!"

Lin Xiaosu asked, "Did Sect Leader Li know that I was coming?"

“Lord Su swept through the Dongxuan Sect three days ago, and has already begun the process of pacifying Jiangnan. My Bapan Sect is just a stone’s throw away, how could Lord Su not come?” Li Daxiu said.

Lin Xiaosu smiled faintly: "When this official faced the Dongxuan Sect, he also offered conditions, but He Yue was too foolish and didn't know when to advance or retreat, which led to the destruction of Dongxuan. Since Sect Leader Li knows the purpose of this official's visit, I wonder what choice he would make if faced with the same conditions?"

Li Daxiu said in a deep voice, "Hand over the thirty-seven people from this clan who have criminal records with the Ministry of Justice, is that right?"

"Not only that!" Lin Xiaosu said, "You also need to hand over the real estate and farmland in Linjiang that you have illegally seized over the years. In addition, you should give away all your wealth as compensation to the people of Linjiang."

"Heh!" Li Daxiu sneered, "Does Lord Su think he can so easily take away our sect's millennia-old foundation with just a few words?"

"Sect Leader Li is wrong! Wrong in two ways!" Lin Xiaosu said, "First, you say this is your sect's thousand-year foundation, but in fact it is not; it is merely the wealth your sect has plundered from the people over thousands of years. Second, you say I intend to seize your sect's thousand-year foundation, but that is not true either; this is not seizure, but a transaction!"

"A trade?" Li Daxiu frowned. "What will Lord Su offer in exchange?"

"One thousand three hundred Enlightened Body cultivators, three hundred Enlightened Spirit cultivators, the lives of the five Great Enlightened Rule cultivators, plus the cultivation foundation of six hundred and twenty thousand disciples!" Lin Xiaosu said slowly, "Sect Leader Li, do you think this heavy bet can offset the loss of these resources in your sect?"

The people in the hall were initially a little confused.

But soon they all understood!
This heavy bet refers to the Eight Plates Sect.

The Eight Plates Sect has 1,300 Enlightened Body Elders, 300 Enlightened Spirit Elders, 5 Great Enlightened Rulers, and 62 Disciples—the exact number is not an inch off!
The Grand Elder stepped forward: "Does Lord Su mean that if our sect does not agree to your conditions, you will once again stage a scene of annihilation and extermination?"

"That is exactly what I intend!" Lin Xiaosu raised his eyes and stared at Li Daxiu on the high platform: "Sect Leader Li, should we accept this heavy bet... or not?"

Li Daxiu took a deep breath: "Ignorant brat..."

The four words had barely left his lips!
Lin Xiaosu suddenly raised her hand: "Since you're resorting to such harsh words, then... there's no need to say anything more!"

As he raised his hand, a sudden burst of golden light shone in the sky!
It looked like a golden grid descending from the sky!

The world has changed drastically, seemingly about to be overturned...

Faced with this dramatic turn of events, Li Daxiu let out a cold laugh: "Start!"

As soon as the word "Qi" was uttered, all eight peaks of the Eight Pan Sect suddenly lit up with a blue light.

As the azure light appeared, the golden grid falling from the sky seemed to be torn to pieces by an invisible hand. In that void, starlight flickered, as if thousands of troops were fighting. Although there were no people, there was still endless killing intent, because this was a battle of array formations.

The Sky and Earth Yin-Yang Reversal Formation clashed head-on with the Eight-Plate Ancient Formation.

The battle of formations was a clash of energies, as if tearing apart the void. The energy of the Eight Pan Ancient Formation could not pass through the Sky Yin Yang Reversal Formation and instead killed the person who cast it. The Sky Yin Yang Reversal Formation was also affected by the energy of the Eight Pan Ancient Formation and could not fall to the ground, thus reversing the Yin and Yang of the Eight Pan Sect.

Mad Wolf's expression suddenly changed.

Zhang Tao's eyes suddenly narrowed.

The dozen or so people behind him were instantly thrown into chaos.

The Sky-Sky Yin-Yang Reversal Array is their divine weapon against sects.

Only with the help of this great formation could they destroy the Dongxuan Sect. Otherwise, their actual combat strength would be far from enough to contend with the sect, let alone conquer it.

The Dongxuan Sect is doing quite well.

However, the Eight Plates Sect encountered a major problem right from the start.

“My lord…” Zhang Tao was extremely anxious when a voice came from behind him.

Before the words had even finished, the four Wugui in front of them turned around simultaneously.

This turn was as if it stirred up four galaxies.

Each of them is a galaxy.

boom!
A giant foot stepped on it, tearing the roof of the palace apart.

Mad Wolf!

When Mad Wolf appeared, he shattered the Milky Way with just one kick. This was a super warrior who could rival Wu Gui.

"My lord! The situation is out of control! Break through at once!" Zhang Tao's voice reached Lin Xiaosu's ears, and his entire figure suddenly expanded, as if a god was blocking his way.

With a soft hiss, the starry sky suddenly changed!

A strange array rose above Li Daxiu's head.

Once the array was displayed, the moon and starlight completely disappeared, and the entire world became his domain.

This is the combat power of Wu Gui in his complete state.

It is far from the enlightenment under the chaotic array of Yin and Yang in the sky.

Li Daxiu's voice seemed to come from the sky: "Su Lin, you little brat, you destroyed Dongxuan with the Dao of Arrays, and I will destroy you with the Dao of Arrays. With the destruction of your army, I will tell the old emperor that Jiangnan is not a place where he can do whatever he wants!"

boom!
A tremendous shock!
The main hall is torn apart!

The mad wolf was knocked back, and the dozen or so Wushen behind her were also sent flying.

Almost simultaneously, Zhang Tao was also blasted away.

Although they were both capable of fighting Wu Gui, they were only barely able to fight him. When they encountered Wu Gui in his full form, they were no match for him. In just one exchange, the two of them were sent flying.

Another person was also thrown back at the same time as them.

Lin Xiaosu.

As Lin Xiaosu took flight, a grid in the air suddenly locked!
This lock is Li Daxiu's most powerful killing move, the Eight-Plate Lock!
He was a genius in the art of array formations, and he also entered the Dao through array formations, mastering the Eight Pan Ancient Array into his own "Guide Shadow," which allowed him to integrate the power of array formations when he used the power of rules.

At this moment, the power of the array had covered the entire area, and no one in the area could escape.

The top choice is naturally the leading company: Lin Xiaosu.

It was clear that Lin Xiaosu was about to fall into his trap.

Suddenly, black and white colors appeared simultaneously beneath Lin Xiaosu's feet.

He slipped away from the array without a sound...

"Yin Yang Step?" Li Daxiu frowned.

Yin-Yang Steps, though just a footwork technique, are extraordinary only to those with exceptional knowledge.

The threshold for entering this realm is unimaginably high. First, one must be above the level of enlightenment, which cannot be achieved without true essence. Second, one must comprehend the Yin-Yang Dao Seed, as it is impossible to smoothly and seamlessly transform Yin and Yang without it.

This Su Lin is actually above the Enlightenment Realm and has even cultivated the Yin-Yang Dao Seed?
How can this be?

However, things have already progressed to this point, and whatever changes may occur, they must be nipped in the bud!

Li Daxiu suddenly unleashed the power of the rules to its fullest extent, simultaneously sealing off Lin Xiaosu with eight array circles.

Even though Lin Xiaosu was proficient in the Yin-Yang Steps, this blockade would still trap and kill him!

However, as soon as Lin Xiaosu raised her hand, a gap was torn open in the eight blockades in front of her.

The yin and yang colors shifted beneath his feet, and he descended into the deep valley in one step.

Li Daxiu's expression changed drastically: "The Law of Space!"

Yes, he sensed the power of the laws of space!

Only he could sense it.

The laws of space are the nemesis of all array formations. How could this kid be proficient in the laws of space? Isn't he a disciple of an ancient sect? Could he possibly be related to the Dao of Time and Space?

Just as his heart was in shock...

In the deepest part of the secluded valley, suddenly a scene of misty rain and Jiangnan unfolds!
Li Daxiu's expression changed drastically. That place was the core of the Eight Pan Ancient Formation!
He entered the Dao through formations.

He understood best how important the core of a formation was to an entire formation.

The Eight-Plate Ancient Formation is the most powerful weapon of the Eight-Plate Sect, and it was even the very thing that led him to enlightenment. How could it be allowed to be destroyed? Therefore, the key to the formation of the Eight-Plate Sect is unknown to anyone in the entire sect.

But this kid's seven steps in the air were all carefully planned, and his ultimate goal was this very core of the formation.

he……

He's going to destroy the core of the formation!

puff!
A cloud of smoke rose, a huge rock in the valley turned into smoke, and a pool of water on one side evaporated completely.

Li Daxiu roared, "No..."

With his roar, the scene of the two battles meeting in the sky vanished instantly.

The Eight Pan Ancient Formation ceased operation, and the Sky Yin-Yang Reversal Formation descended upon them, enveloping the entire Eight Pan Sect.

The mad wolf had just been knocked back a hundred feet when it crashed into a high peak behind it, causing its qi and blood to become chaotic.

Zhang Tao was also plunged into a deep abyss, his qi... his qi was in chaos, not to mention his mind was in turmoil!

He thought it was all over...

Suddenly, the familiar grid descended upon him, and the inverse crystal pillar in his arms activated spontaneously.

Zhang Tao soared into the sky and saw a familiar scene.

The vast starry sky behind the four enlightened masters vanished simultaneously.

The Guiying Array diagram constructed by Li Daxiu was completely annihilated.

The Enlightened God expert flying through the air suddenly changed his expression. His Dharma body was gone, and he fell towards the sky like dumplings being dropped into a pot!
Yes, the world has turned upside down!

"Brothers, counterattack!" Zhang Tao roared, his voice shaking the heavens and earth!

call!
The guards, who had been badly beaten and forced to flee, were now in high spirits and turned to attack. The Enlightened God, who had just bullied the weak, was feeling the chaos in his internal energy and had not yet had time to stabilize his Sea of ​​Wheels and Sea of ​​Consciousness before being slaughtered by these dozen or so people.

With a furious roar, Mad Wolf pushed off with his feet and soared into the sky, heading straight for Li Daxiu.

Swish!
Zhang Tao ascended from the valley, appearing like countless phantoms. The phantoms merged into one, and a long sword severed the head of an Elder Wugui.

The other three Elder Wugui's expressions changed drastically, and they surrounded the enemy!

Two black and white shadowy figures suddenly appeared behind them.

In the blink of an eye, two heads vanished into thin air. This was Lin Xiaosu, and this was his precise elimination using the Void Strike technique.

What's being cleared is the mind.

Their heads were caught in the temporal turbulence, and their primordial spirits were also swept up in it.

Those who die at Zhang Tao's hands may have a chance to escape in the chaos, but those who die at his hands will never escape.

A loud bang shook the ground.

Mad Wolf fell from the sky, but she stepped on the top of the main hall, causing it to collapse. She then soared into the sky again and punched Li Daxiu in mid-air.

This time, she fell into the deep sky again, and Li Daxiu was also thrown thousands of feet away by her.

Li Daxiu roared, "I entered the Dao through formations, do you think I'm really afraid of your Yin-Yang Reversal Formation?"

Chi!
Lin Xiaosu's sword flashed across the sky, seemingly freezing time.

All the storms have ceased, all the battlefields are still, and time seems to have frozen completely...

Li Daxiu's eyes widened suddenly, his head shot into the sky, and his primordial spirit was swept into a void...

Mad Wolf trampled down another palace roof and flew into the sky again, but Li Daxiu's face was gone, only his body remained. Beside this body stood a person in the void, who had the dashing and refined air that Mad Wolf used to find most disgusting, but today Mad Wolf's heart pounded.

He killed Lee Dae-soo!

This pretty boy is even more ruthless than her!

She swore she had used all her strength, but she felt that in a one-on-one fight, she might still be no match for Lee Dae-soo, whose rules were restricted. However, a flash of sword light swept past, and Lee Dae-soo's head was severed.

This person is her adult.

He was the gigolo she used to despise the most.

And he also has that smile that can charm any girl in the world...

She had wronged Lin Xiaosu at that moment. Lin Xiaosu did indeed show joy on her face.

However, it was definitely not the kind of smile he used to seduce women; it was a genuine smile of surprise.

Lin Xiaosu broke through with that sword strike just now!

This sword strike severed time itself!
Derived from the Li Ren Sword Dao of the Li Sect, it takes the core of "speed" and incorporates the law of time.

When dealing with a master of enlightenment, the Time Breaker is like a swift knife cutting a radish, but against a master of enlightenment like Li Daxiu, its effect is not obvious.

However, this sword strike has just undergone a transformation.

Because his laws of time have changed at this moment.

A crystal-clear Dao Seed was generated from the chaos, and he finally possessed the Dao Seed of Time.

With the Time Seed, his "Time Severance" sword technique has become the most... effective for surprise attacks.

The emergence of this seed of time tonight was an accident, but it was also time for the laws of time to take root. Lin Xiaosu's comprehension of the seven laws of heaven began earliest with the laws of time.

His time travel is itself an application of the laws of time.

Every time he solves a case in the mortal world, he is actually solidifying the foundation of his time law.

Little by little, time and again, finally, in the sky of this other world, the seed of the Law of Time was formed...

Once the Dao Seed is formed, the Time-Space Severance transforms into a scythe of fate that is imperceptible to all in this world, reaping the harvest of the top group of people in the Eight Plates Sect.

Dozens more people fell from the sky, and the battle process, exactly the same as that of the Dongxuan Sect, began.

In fact, from the moment Lin Xiaosu broke the eye of the Eight Pan Ancient Formation and let the light of the Sky Yin Yang Reversal Formation envelop the Eight Pan Sect, everything was no longer in doubt.

As usual, Lin Xiaosu plunged headfirst into the Bapanzong treasure vault.

As usual, he got what he wanted...

When we came out, it was almost the end.

Fu Fu unleashed her full power, fighting with great enthusiasm. After her six tails conspicuously shattered a cultivator at the Enlightenment Realm, she suddenly saw her beloved, who approached her with the gait of a prostitute's client.

Fu Fu started to slack off, quickly moving to his side, showing him her arm, and pitifully crying, "Brother Su, I...I'm injured!"

"Oh my god, this needs to hurt quickly, otherwise, this red mark will disappear in a while!" Lin Xiaosu grabbed her arm and gently stroked the abrasion.

Fu Fu leaned against him, completely ignoring the mess on the ground as a scenic view.

tom!
A giant leg came crashing down from the sky, completely destroying a cave on the opposite mountain.

Amidst the rising dust, Mad Wolf's face was faintly visible, and surprisingly, a smile graced her lips...

"Did you see that? She's smiling!" Lin Xiaosu was quite surprised.

"Huh? Mad Wolf smiled at you? She's got her eye on you too?" Fu Fu was quite surprised.

Lin Xiaosu's teeth ached a little. That's not what I meant. What I meant was that I had never seen her smile. She didn't seem like a woman who could smile.

She even has her eye on me? What kind of logic is that?

It's so big, what can you do if you like it?
Is there anything I can get done with her?

Just kidding! That cave is over a meter deep!
You can't reach the bottom even if you step on it.

Swish!
Zhang Tao appeared before Lin Xiaosu: "My lord, the outcome is decided!"

Lin Xiaosu nodded gently: "Were there any casualties?"

"Although it was extremely dangerous just now, fortunately the master broke the formation in time, and thankfully there were no casualties, only about ten brothers were injured." Zhang Tao said with lingering fear.

Lin Xiaosu was still shaken.

That was indeed a very dangerous moment.

The thrill lies in the fact that the Eight-Plate Ancient Formation can indeed withstand the Great Formation of Reversed Yin and Yang in the Sky.

If he cannot break the formation in time, their side may really have to suffer an immeasurable cost.

However, this kind of adventure is also necessary.

Without activating the Eight-Pan Ancient Formation, he was unable to locate its core.

Once the Eight Pan Ancient Formation is activated, it will be a moment when life and death hang in the balance.

He needs to find the key to the formation, break the ancient formation, and then use his own formation to suppress the enemy and achieve a major turnaround in the battle within the crucial window of time when the enemy is about to make a decisive move.

he made it!

However, he also exhausted all his resources.

Even the Yin-Yang Step technique I practiced yesterday, which I honed at the last minute, was put into practice on horseback...

Time passed minute by minute...

The exact same scene as that of Dongxuan Sect a few days ago has appeared again.

The wailing of the sect disciples, the utter despair of the sect elders, the endless cursing, swearing, and howling, banging their heads against the wall—it was exactly the same as the Dongxuan Sect.

The soldiers were just as spirited as those who had destroyed Dongxuan.

Even the reward policy is exactly the same. As usual, everyone who participates will be rewarded with one hundred gold coins, and those who are injured will receive an additional one hundred.

The only difference was that Mad Wolf didn't need his instructions; he led a few warriors and directly raided the enemy's treasure vault.

Clutching her bountiful harvest, the woman was still far from satisfied: "Sir, there's something very strange."

"What?" Everyone was slightly surprised.

Mad Wolf said, "Whether it's Dongxuan Sect or Bapan Sect, we haven't found their cultivation resources. Could it be that these bastards moved them ahead of time?"

Lin Xiaosu cursed inwardly, "You filthy woman, who are you calling a bastard?"

However, he could only show a thoughtful expression on his face: "That's just how the world is. It's impossible for everything to go as planned. As long as we've achieved something, that's enough. Let's go to Linjiang Prefecture!"

"withdraw troops!"

This time, no one was left to clean up the battlefield; there wasn't much to clean up anyway, and everything that could be taken was taken away.

Fifty warships sailed directly to Linjiang Prefecture.

On the way, Fufu spoke up: "Sir, will the prefect be changed again this time when we go to Linjiang Prefecture?"

After those words were spoken, no one knew what to say.

You little rascal, do you feel cooler the stronger the wind is?

Can they really change prefects every time? Didn't you see how the entire court went crazy when the prefect of Fuyao Prefecture was changed...?

Lin Xiaosu nodded gently: "It's exactly the same operation as Fuyou Mansion, nothing new."

OMG……

Zhang Tao felt he had to say something: "Sir, is there also evidence of wrongdoing on Huo Xiu, the prefect of Linjiang?"

"Linjiang and Fuyao are geographically similar, their sects are similar, their situations are similar, and their prefects are similar. I really don't know who is copying whose homework. Since they are all the same, let these two prefects catch up in the prison, so they won't blame me for being unfair!"

Mad Wolf Fang said with a hint of sourness, "My lord, should we use the Assistant Magistrate again this time?"

“Oh, not this time!” Lin Xiaosu said, “The magistrate of Linjiang is no good. It seems that there is only one county magistrate in his jurisdiction who is upright.”

"The county magistrate... the county magistrate is only a seventh-rank official! He's being promoted directly to the fourth rank?" Zhang Tao's eyes widened.

Lin Xiaosu laughed heartily: "A promotion from the fifth rank to the fourth rank won't have too much of a shock to the officialdom, but a promotion from the seventh rank to the fourth rank, I'm afraid I'll become a troublemaker in the officialdom."

“Sir, have confidence! You’re not going to become an outlier in the officialdom…” Zhang Tao said.

"Get lost! If you dare say that I'm a troublemaker, I guarantee you'll have endless trouble along the way!" Lin Xiaosu said angrily.

Haha ...

Zhang Tao laughed, and everyone on the boat laughed.

Surprisingly, this unruly commotion made everyone feel that the trip to Jiangnan had become much more relaxed.

The tragic heroism of "putting oneself in a life-or-death situation" that they had shown at the beginning of their journey to Jiangnan was completely gone.

Mad Wolf said, "If Hong Bin knew that our trip to Jiangnan would involve this kind of battle, I wonder if he would regret the stupid thing he did that led to him breaking his own leg."

Her soldiers stared at the corner of her mouth, completely stunned.

There's a clear smile playing on his lips!

She actually smiled...

Enter Linjiang Prefecture.

The process begins exactly the same as that of Fuyao.

The warships hovered low in the night sky.

The army descended to Linjiang and captured all the members of the Bapan clan who were entrenched in Linjiang Prefecture.

When he announced several policies to benefit the people, the entire city knelt in worship.

Upon arriving at the prefectural government office, Prefect Huo Xiu showed no awareness of the impending doom, greeting Lin Xiaosu with a smile and respect. However, his smile and respect vanished as Lin Xiaosu piled on his crimes one by one. After Lin Xiaosu's seven major crimes were announced, he completely broke down.

His Majesty's image is reproduced.

The prefect has been apprehended!

But when Lin Xiaosu nominated the new prefect, His Majesty still frowned.

This was the only time he frowned: "Wang Jiang, the magistrate of Qingchuan County? Minister Su knows him very well?"

“Your Majesty has already conducted a thorough investigation into him. There is only one matter that will make Your Majesty realize that this person is suitable to be the prefect of Linjiang at this moment. This matter is the ‘indiscriminate killing case’ recorded in the Ministry of Justice’s files.”

The massacre occurred in Qingchuan County. Three disciples of the Bapan Sect gang-raped a woman selling tofu on the street and killed her parents. County Magistrate Wang Jiang slammed his fist on the table and used his official seal to arrest the three men.

An elder from the Bapan Sect arrived in Qingchuan County with a personal letter from Prefect Huo Xiu, demanding the release of the three criminals. Qingchuan County Magistrate Wang Jiang withstood the double pressure and executed the three serious offenders.

He was the only person in the entire Linjiang Prefecture who withstood the pressure from his superiors.

Afterwards, his wife, children, and parents were all killed by the Bapan clan.

When it was his turn, things changed. Tens of thousands of people took turns guarding the area around the county government office. All the spiritual practitioners among the people's children returned to their hometowns and joined the guard team, which continues to this day!

His Majesty has already reviewed the case file from the Ministry of Justice.

His Majesty slowly raised his gaze: "A county magistrate who can withstand the pressure from the traitor Huo Xiu and who can inspire tens of thousands of people to stand guard for him—how can such a magistrate, who is upright and loves his people like his own children, be overlooked? By imperial decree! The magistrate of Qingchuan County is to be transferred to the position of prefect of Linjiang, to rectify the conduct of the prefecture!"

With the issuance of this imperial edict, the entire officialdom fell into a deathly silence...

When this Lord Su went to Jiangnan, was he really going to Jiangnan? Wasn't he also going to the officialdom?

The two major sects were destroyed because of him.

The two prefects were brought to the capital because of him.

Even if the person he wanted to use was only a seventh-rank official, His Majesty promoted him six ranks and put him to use.

What exactly is His Majesty's intention?

Will this meddling force truly stir up trouble in officialdom?

Believe it or not, that's a possibility.

After all, His Majesty has not truly ruled in person for ten years, and the entire officialdom has long become the private domain of the former crown prince and the former prime minister.

The crown prince was executed, and the former prime minister was executed.

But there hasn't been much change in the officialdom yet.

This does not conform to the common practice in officialdom where a new emperor brings in a new court.

Now that His Majesty is in power and full of energy, it's perfectly understandable that he would use this kid as a tool to stir up trouble and shake up the entire officialdom...

Zhang Tao asked Lin Xiaosu about this on the rooftop of the restaurant.

Lin Xiaosu smiled and said, "Whether Your Majesty intends to reform the officialdom is not for me to speculate on, but one thing is certain: once the Fuyao scheme is launched and Your Majesty has tasted the benefits, you will absolutely not be willing to give it up." (End of Chapter)
