Chapter 90: Chapter 90: Unparalleled Genius That Fairy Linghua stood alone in a corner, and only when Li Yunjing looked over did he realize she had been staring at him.
As soon as she caught his gaze, she responded with a sweet smile.
"Hehe!"
Li Yunjing immediately smiled back, but cursed inwardly, "We’re at the site already, and you’re still putting on an act!"
Engaging in conversation made the time pass quickly.
At this moment, there were already over thirty cultivators present, most of whom were gathered in groups chatting among themselves.
Before long, the members of the "Law Enforcement Hall" arrived.
An entire squad of eleven people.
The leader was a steward at the Foundation Establishment Realm, while the other ten were disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall, each of whom had reached at least the seventh layer of the Qi Cultivation Realm.
In the "Law Enforcement Hall," even the weakest member had to be an Inner Sect Disciple.
Furthermore, being an Inner Sect Disciple was only the initial requirement; their combat strength, loyalty, character, wisdom, and perseverance also had to be exceptional to enter the "Law Enforcement Hall."
Of course, the rigorous entry process for the Law Enforcement Hall also meant that the treatment they received was very favorable.
Without superior strength, how could they enforce the rules?
Indeed, not everyone feared the laws of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect"!
Some bold individuals would resist when the "Law Enforcement Hall" tried to capture them, and during peaceful times, members of the Law Enforcement Hall were often killed while executing their duties.
At this moment, all the sect members participating in the bounty mission had arrived.
Li Yunjing counted thirty-two Inner Sect Disciples excluding the eleven from the Law Enforcement Hall, and the rest were like him, Outer Sect Disciples, making twenty-five in total.
Including the Law Enforcement Hall members, there were forty-three participants in total, with a Foundation Establishment Realm steward overseeing the operation.
This steward, being able to make a name for himself in the Law Enforcement Hall, was naturally far superior to a regular Foundation Establishment expert.
Such formidable strength was enough to sweep through some small clans.
One could only wonder who the tribulation cultivators in the "Youlan Mountain Range" were.
Daring to ambush even Inner Sect Disciples of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect"!
It was known that in the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," Inner Sect Disciples were considered the sect’s true members, and their deaths would be thoroughly investigated.
Once the culprits were identified, the "Law Enforcement Hall" would take care of enforcing the law.
If the "Law Enforcement Hall" couldn’t handle it, the sect also had the "Guardian Army."
The "Guardian Army" was a formidable force that dominated the Southern Heaven Continent, with the minimum standard for enlistment being the Foundation Establishment Realm.
This was the "Shenxiao Dao Sect’s" primary foothold on the Southern Heaven Continent!
The "Guardian Army" was an extremely secretive department that Li Yunjing had only heard of; he knew nothing about its internal workings.
Not just him, even the Inner Sect Disciples were in the dark.
"Clap! Clap! Clap!"
As Li Yunjing was contemplating their strength, a disciple from the "Law Enforcement Hall" clapped lightly, drawing everyone’s attention to him.
"Alright! Fellow disciples! Now, please step forward one by one to submit your identity tokens! I will record them, and after the operation, the ’Law Enforcement Hall’ will issue contribution points!"
This young man, with a handsome face, was clad in black armor and radiated strength.
His sharp gaze, combined with his stern voice, exuded great authority.
"Yes! Senior Brother Xu Xun!"
Many seemed to recognize him, and they responded loudly in unison.
No one showed any dissatisfaction or unwillingness to comply with his orders.
One by one, they queued up obediently, handing their identity tokens to Senior Brother Xu Xun.
"This is Senior Brother Xu Xun, an expert of the ’Law Enforcement Hall’ with cultivation at the peak of the Qi Cultivation Realm. He has even killed Foundation Establishment Realm loose cultivators! He is the pride of the sect!"
Noticing Li Yunjing’s confusion, Ma Ye whispered beside him.
"The ’Law Enforcement Hall’ enforces both internally and externally, and Senior Brother Xu Xun frequently goes out to enforce the law.
This person has profound cultivation and unparalleled combat strength, making him one of the key figures in the ’Law Enforcement Hall.’
He is also a symbolic figure among the disciples of the ’Law Enforcement Hall.’
He is greatly favored by the elders.
He is practically a candidate for a future elder or hall master of the ’Law Enforcement Hall.’
Many disciples in the sect both respect and fear Senior Brother Xu Xun.
Even Ma Ye seemed to be such a person; his complex emotions were evident through his excited eyes.
"I see!"
Li Yunjing was startled; this was the first time he had encountered such a peerless genius who could kill Foundation Establishment cultivators while still in the Qi Cultivation Realm!
The impact Xu Xun had on him far exceeded that of Yunyi, Fu Chao, and the other True Disciples.
