The vast sky carried people down the mountain.

At the same time, Iron Bull Soul Douluo led his team to eliminate the patrol team located on the mountainside, which then came to their aid.

Iron Bull Soul Douluo said, "Jinluo, you and Young Master Qian Gu take the men back to the city, and leave the rest to us."

After rescuing the people, the next step was to purge the disciples of the Xinshan Sect.

As for these student teams, they were also taken away.

Faced with the siege, the disciples of the Xinshan Sect will inevitably put up a stubborn resistance.

The trainees lack combat experience, and in such situations, they often suffer heavy losses.

However, they are not without purpose; they can escort the miners to safety on their way back to the city.

Wu Qi, who was conducting aerial reconnaissance, no longer wanted to fight and followed Qian Gu Chang Kong and the others to retreat.

After all, he was only there to investigate the Wu family's involvement, not to act as a thug.

Having obtained the final piece of the puzzle from Wu Qinan, his task was complete.

If the miners here weren't in dire need of rescue, he would have led his team to the highly toxic land long ago.

……

Once in the city, the miners were properly resettled, and Wu Qi was finally able to rest a bit.

However, he did not rest, but stood on the city wall with Qian Gu Chang Kong and others, observing the situation in the distance.

Chen Ping said, "Brother Wu, there's not much commotion outside the city. Has the Xinshan Sect deployed a large number of people near the mine?"

Previously, he did not go out with Wu Qi and the others, but stayed in the city to coordinate with the local Spirit Hall and the City Lord's Mansion to receive the miners.

However, judging from the sounds of battle coming from outside the city, it was not as intense as expected.

Wu Qi said, "Most people have probably already left; those left behind are just the last ones clearing the area."

"However, for us, the matter is over, and we can now go on our training journey. The remaining matters of the Xinshan Sect can be handled by our two grandfathers."

"Let's go, there are some trivial matters that need to be dealt with."

The three left the city wall and found He Niannian and her father in the crowd.

After learning what had happened from He Niannian, He Guangyi immediately knelt down upon seeing the three of them, his eyes filled with gratitude.

"Thank you so much for saving my daughter and everyone in the mine."

The Spirit Hall and the City Lord's Mansion jointly issued a statement informing the miners that the New Mountain Sect had planted explosives in the mine. Although the miners still had some doubts, they had no choice but to believe the statement issued by these two authoritative forces.

Wu Qi helped He Guangyi up and waved his hand, saying, "I'm not doing this entirely for you; I also have my own interests to consider."

"You can understand it as rescuing all of you miners being a natural next step."

"However, next, you will need to testify in court about the exploitation that Xinshan Sect has inflicted on you over the years, as well as the fact that the mine was transferred to Xinshan Sect's control a long time ago."

He Guangyi responded repeatedly.

Previously, He Niannian had already informed him of the facts.

He Guangyi finally understood that the old man Charles had not abandoned them, but had been harmed by the people of the Xinshan Sect.

In addition to being exploited by the Shinsan Sect for many years, they will eventually be put to death.

His resentment made him want nothing more than to bring the Xinshan Sect to its doom.

Therefore, when the hearing is held later, He Guangyi and others will naturally know what to say.

"As for He Niannian, whether or not she goes to study at the Spirit Hall Academy is entirely up to you."

As he spoke, Wu Qi took out a personal token from his soul tool.

The dean of the Spirit Hall Academy is the son of Golden Crocodile Douluo, and his family still owes Wu Qi a favor.

Moreover, He Niannian's talent is not bad, and there is no reason for the Spirit Hall Academy to turn her away.

"Can I really do it?" He Niannian asked excitedly.

Going to study at the Spirit Hall Academy has always been her dream. You see, advanced spirit master academies on the continent either restrict the background of the spirit master or the attribute of their spirit.

Only the Spirit Hall Academy doesn't consider background or spirit, focusing solely on the students' talent.

Unfortunately, He Niannian was unable to leave because of the Xinshan Sect.

Wu Qi smiled calmly, "Then it's up to you. If you're willing, contact the local Spirit Hall later, and they will arrange for someone to escort you to the Spirit Hall Academy."

With that, he turned and left. "I have other things to do, so I won't stay any longer. If you'd like, we'll meet again at the Spirit Hall Academy in the future."

……

The rest can be handled by Qianjun, Demon-Slaying Douluo, and other powerful figures from the Spirit Hall.

Wu Qi led the team towards Lipton Forest to complete his training.

The next morning, the local city lord's mansion held a hearing.

No one from the Shinsan Sect attended the hearing, and of course, they might not have come even if they had been invited.

The hearing was simple: the miners accused Johor Bahru of exploiting them and recounted their experiences in recent years.

Furthermore, the Spirit Hall also presented evidence collected from the mine.

The Shinsan Sect group seemed to have no intention of causing any accidents. They buried countless explosives in the mine, and once detonated, the entire mine would inevitably collapse completely, and it might even trigger a large-scale earthquake.

Such heinous acts are simply too numerous to recount.

This hearing was essentially giving the Spirit Hall a legal basis to take action against the New Mountain Sect.

This incident has become widely known throughout the entire mainland.

Such heinous acts deserve to be punished by everyone.

The Spirit Hall then naturally assumed the role of acting on behalf of Heaven.

Meanwhile, inside the Wu family...

Since returning to his family, Wu Qinan has been secretly searching for the identity of the mole.

He already has some guesses.

Early this morning, the steward rushed in to report: "Master, there is wonderful news!"

The butler's topic of conversation was, of course, about the mine.

After investigation by the Spirit Hall and the local city lord's mansion, it has been confirmed that the Xinshan Sect was involved, and no evidence has been found that the Wu family was involved.

In this way, the Wu family was removed from the list.

Wu Qinan knew that this was the result of Wu Qi's help.

However, this does not mean that the Wu family can pretend nothing happened.

Even if Xue Qinghe didn't pursue the matter afterward, Wu Qinan knew what to do.

But before that, he needs to find the mole.

"Butler, you seem quite unhappy. What's wrong? Is something wrong with your master, and you're starting to get anxious?"

The steward was startled at first, but then he forced himself to remain calm and said, "Master, what are you saying? Nothing has happened to our Wu family. On the contrary, we have benefited from this misfortune. Why should I be anxious?"

Wu Qinan sneered, "Do you really want me to produce evidence before you'll admit it?"

"They conspired with the Xinshan Sect to kill Charles and a group of Wu family members, and then secretly colluded with them to deceive me!"

"If I didn't have evidence, why would I say it so easily?"

"You still won't admit it!"

When reporting the news, the butler's expression was clearly abnormal, a sign that he was guilty.

Wu Qinan had no reason not to increase his suspicions about him. (End of Chapter)
