Chapter 242 [Reward] (6400)

The moment Chen Yan raised his voice, the disciples guarding the Outer Court were instantly alerted, and the sound of something slicing through the air followed.

After the courtyard gate was thrown open, three or four disciples rushed in one after another.

Among them, someone who had previously come to search and knew Chen Yan asked loudly, "What’s happened, Junior Brother?"

Chen Yan, smiling, reached out and pointed to the ground.

East Sea was covered in talisman paper, his face full of despair, staring venomously at Chen Yan.

"Senior Brothers, take a look. Isn’t this the intruder you were after who snuck into the sect?"

After Chen Yan asked, the disciples had different expressions. The one who recognized Chen Yan quickly walked over, looked at East Sea, and said in a deep voice, "I don’t know. We haven’t seen the thief, but this person..."

Chen Yan said calmly, "My cultivation isn’t refined. Senior Brother, you’d better find a way to secure him first before we continue. Otherwise, he might break free of my talismans and escape."

"Hahaha! He won’t escape!" The disciple laughed sinisterly and cursed, "This bastard has made it so we couldn’t cultivate today, patrolling and searching all over. Now that we’ve caught him, how could we let him escape?!"

As he spoke, he pointed at East Sea, and an iron chain flew out from his sleeve, binding East Sea.

"Zhao Shanhe! Junior Brother Zhao!"

Outside, Zhao Wuki shouted as he rushed in, laughed, and said to Chen Yan, "I was almost at the Sutra Depository when I heard the warning whistle, then knew something happened here. I hurried over..."

As he spoke, he glanced at Chen Yan, then at East Sea who was locked on the ground, and laughed, "Junior Brother, you’ve just joined the sect and already made a contribution. Your future is limitless!"

Zhao Wuki was about to wave for someone to take East Sea away.

"Wait a moment," Chen Yan interrupted.

"Hmm? Does Junior Brother have another question?" Zhao Wuki was somewhat surprised but then remembered something and smiled, "Rest assured, Junior Brother, the rules of Jing’an Hall are strict. Credit will be given where it’s due and won’t be taken away unjustly!"

Chen Yan shook his head and smiled, "That’s not my concern. I have something to say about the captured thief."

Zhao Wuki rubbed his nose, "What is it?"

"Senior Brother Wuji should know my background. The Gu Family cargo ship that was intercepted..."

Chen Yan slowly said, "Among the passengers on that cargo ship, there was also this guy. I saw him on the ship."

Zhao Wuki’s expression turned serious.

He glanced at East Sea on the ground, thinking this thief sneaking past the mountain-protecting formation into the Outer Sect undetected was already troublesome.

Unexpectedly, it also involved the case of the Gu Family’s cargo ship being intercepted?

The Celestial Demon Yin Yang Joyful Sect was a Saint sect, and now it’s also tied to the Gu Family? That means there’s another Saint family involved.

When it concerns a Saint family, the matter can’t be handled casually, and even dealing with this thief needs to involve the Gu Family and let them participate in the interrogation.

What a headache...

Zhao Wuki sighed. Jing’an Hall was responsible for the Outer Sect’s safety and patrolling the nearby mountains and forests. With such a big case involving two Saint sect families, the next few days would be quite busy.

However, he was also meticulous. After thinking it through, he cupped his hands to Chen Yan, "Since things are as Junior Brother said, we might have to trouble you to come with us to Jing’an Hall and officially record everything you know about this person."

"That would be the right thing to do." Chen Yan was not surprised and nodded, "I can go with you now."

Two Outer Sect disciples carried the iron chain-bound East Sea and walked away with him.

Chen Yan and Zhao Wuki walked at the back. Zhao Wuki seemed more cordial towards Chen Yan.

This Junior Brother Zhao Shanhe indeed had some skills—no wonder Senior Brother Nangong Sheng appreciated him so much, even recommended him, bringing him into the Outer Sect.

Thinking of this, Zhao Wuki asked how Chen Yan had captured East Sea.

Chen Yan only mentioned that after the searching disciples left, while cultivating in the courtyard, he accidentally noticed the flaw in the blue stone East Sea had transformed into, then captured him after a fight.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Wuki frowned.

This was a bit troublesome...

According to Chen Yan, this guy was in the courtyard when he led people to search, yet they hadn’t noticed anything, letting him slip by under their noses...

Reporting this might not lead to punishment, but getting scolded by the elders would be inevitable.

However, these matters couldn’t be hidden, Zhao Wuki was helpless.

Yet, he looked at Chen Yan even more courteously.

This person is appreciated by Senior Brother Nangong Sheng from the Inner Sect, has considerable skills, and behaves well during lectures.

This guy, likely entering the Outer Sect, truly has a promising future. I should indeed establish a good relationship with him.

Arriving at the side hall of Jing’an Hall, a place Chen Yan had visited before, he saw Elder Qian standing there with a somber face, hands behind his back.

Seeing the two disciples carrying East Sea over, Elder Qian glanced at him and gave a cold snort, "Take him to the detention room."

Then, looking at Chen Yan led by Zhao Wuki, his expression softened slightly.

"Greetings, Elder Qian," Chen Yan cupped his hands in salute.

Elder Qian said indifferently, "Days ago you were still an outsider, now you’re wearing the robes of an Outer Sect disciple—a disciple like that doesn’t need to be so formal."
