Starting with a useless yellow dog, he swept through the immortal realm.

The magistrate of Luoshi County sat high on the platform, looking at Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng standing in the county government office with suspicion.

After arriving at the Luoshi County government office, Song Xun explained the situation in detail to Yue Zai, the magistrate of Luoshi County, but unexpectedly, he was met with skepticism from Yue Zai.

At this moment, Yue Zai was stroking his small mustache on the stage, while his other hand was slowly stroking it as well.

Song Xun naturally realized that Yue Zai wanted benefits, but what he didn't expect was that this place was so close to the outer realms, and the county magistrate here actually dared to embezzle and openly solicit bribes from him.

The servants and guards standing around the county government office seemed to take it all for granted, all eyeing Song Xun and his companion with greed.

"Magistrate Yue, I am a member of the Beast Taming Sect, and I would never joke with you."

As he spoke, Song Xun handed his Peak Master Token to the attendants around him. After the attendants handed the token to Yue Zai, Yue Zai began to sense Song Xun's cultivation level.

As a county town near Zhenyao Pass, Yue Zai's county government office is equipped with very comprehensive testing magic treasures. Moreover, Yue Zai himself is a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and after taking out a spirit stone to test his realm.

Yue Zai laughed loudly because he detected that Song Xun's cultivation level was only at the Nascent Soul stage.

The peak master of the Beast Taming Sect is a high-ranking member of the sect, so how could he only have the cultivation of the Nascent Soul Realm? Then Yue Zai placed Song Xun's token on the table and gestured to the guards on both sides.

"How dare you! You actually forged the Beast Taming Sect's token!"

"Men, seize them!"

Just as the surrounding soldiers were about to step forward, Song Xun took out a small bag of spirit stones from his pocket and handed it to the soldiers.

"Magistrate Yue, I have some documents here to prove my identity. Please take a look."

Song Xun had always looked down on Yue Zai's behavior, but he never expected that Yue Zai would actually try to take them both down.

Only through the county government office could they quickly contact the interior of Zhenyao Pass. Song Xun didn't want to cause any more trouble, so he took out a bag of spirit stones.

When Jiang Wanfeng saw Song Xun take out the bag of spirit stones, she immediately understood why Yue Zai was making things so difficult for the two of them.

Jiang Wanfeng glared at Yue Zai on the high platform, preparing to draw her sword, but Song Xun grabbed her hand and shook her head.

With their combined cultivation levels, the two could easily sweep away all the attendants and soldiers present, but this would inadvertently offend this powerful force.

After all, even if the Luoshi County government was corrupt, it was still a local government of the Hantian Dynasty. Moreover, he didn't know the relationship between the Luoshi County government and Zhenyao Pass, so Song Xun decided to pay money to avoid trouble.

At this moment, after the soldier handed the bag of spirit stones to Yue Zai, Yue Zai weighed it in his hand for a moment and then returned the token to Song Xun.

"Master Song, it's not that I don't want to help you, but the officials at Zhenyao Pass are all very busy, and I don't want to bother them too much."

At this moment, Song Xun understood Yue Zai's meaning. He thought it was too little. Song Xun then took out a bag of spirit stones, and Yue Zai finally smiled happily.

"Peak Master Song, I am so sorry for not welcoming you sooner. I will take care of it for you immediately. Please go back to your residence and rest for the night. The guards from Zhenyao Pass will come down to meet you tomorrow."

"Then thank you very much, Magistrate Yue."

Seeing that Yue Zai agreed, Song Xun took his leave with Jiang Wanfeng, because he felt that if he didn't leave with Jiang Wanfeng, she might draw her sword and kill all the people in the county government office.

Just after Song Xun led Jiang Wanfeng out of the county government office, Jiang Wanfeng angrily said to Song Xun.

"Why are you stopping me? Why won't you let me cut them down?"

"Our purpose in coming here is to reach the Demon-Suppressing Pass. If we were to kill him, it would be a troublesome matter."

"Hmph, I want to teach them a lesson."

As the two men left, they both caught a glimpse out of the corner of their eyes that as soon as the two men stepped out of the county government office, Yue Zai and the others hurriedly began dividing the spoils.

"Alright, alright, it's nothing. Let's go to the Demon Suppression Pass and check the situation. If the guard is keeping to his word, we can report this to him."

Then, Song Xun saw an old man with a hunched back, wearing a coarse linen shirt, staggering all the way to the county government office.

"Lord Yue, please have mercy!"

The old man had just run into the county government office when he was thrown out and shouted at the entrance.

"Master Yue, please give me back my daughter!"

"Heaven has eyes, Master Yue, please have pity on this old man."

The old man pleaded desperately in front of the Luoshi County government office, and then a strong and sturdy guard came out.

"Get out of here! If you dare to obstruct official business here again, be careful, the magistrate will betray you and execute you on the spot."

Then, the burly man drew his knife and was about to slash at the old man, who was so frightened that he took several steps back.

The burly man snorted coldly and returned to the county government office. The old man waited quietly not far from the county government office, his eyes vacant and his whole body trembling.

Song Xun and his companion watched the whole thing unfold before heading towards the old man.

Looking at the two men's clothes, the old man seemed to be frightened again.

"My lords, I dare not cause any more trouble. I have a young son and an old mother at home. Please don't kill me."

"Old man, we are not from the county government."

The old man's tense expression eased slightly upon hearing that it wasn't someone from the county government.

"Young master and young lady, may I ask what brings you here?"

"Old man, what happened to you? Could you tell me? Perhaps I can help."

Song Xunchao said to the old man, then realized that he was too close to the county government office to speak, so he took him a little further away.

From the old man, Song Xun learned that Yue Zai, as the magistrate of Luoshi County, had harmed the people and committed corruption and bribery.

Last night, the old man's daughter was forcibly taken from his home. The old man didn't return home all night after working, and only learned from his family this morning that his daughter had been taken away.

So the old man rushed to the county government office, only to be terrified.

"It's alright, old man, you go home first, I'll find a way to get your daughter out."

After seeing the old man off, Jiang Wanfeng was about to draw her sword and rush towards the county government office, but Song Xun stopped her.

"Wanfeng, don't worry, we still need them to get us contacted from Zhenyao Pass."

"As for that county magistrate, he will pay the price."

The two of them naturally could not go to the Demon Suppression Pass rashly, since the Demon Suppression Pass was only facing demons from beyond the realm, and it would be strange if someone suddenly went to the bottom of the Demon Suppression Pass.

Then it would probably be treated as a disguised extraterrestrial monster.

Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng returned to the inn to wait for news. It wasn't until the afternoon that an official came to find them and informed them that the two of them would go outside the city the next day, where the guards of Zhenyao Pass would meet them.

As night fell, Luoshi County, being close to other areas, saw every household close their doors early, and the area was now quiet.

Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng waited for Yue Zai on his way home.

"Magistrate Yue, are you going back to your residence to rest?"
