sition. Within the limited time I have left, I will do my best to provide you with the greatest possible assistance.”The chief made his advantage clear, also implying to Ripples that before she achie...The ripples wouldn't say, naturally, that she herself had dealt with the puppet controlled by the cursed artifact from Jigokuzuki. As for those who saw her, she had just said that they were all illusions. Whether they believed it or not was none of her concern.

The boat captain who came along noticed that the problem was not as simple as it seemed. He initially thought it was just a kidnapping, but now it seemed to be involved with the 極樂宮 cult, and apparently, according to that young lady, it was a big scam.

"Miss, I am Zhao Si, the head catcher of Huayue City. Could you please tell me what happened"

This is a long story.

Ripples held the handkerchief in her hand and simply told about what had happened, emphasizing the man named Winsun.

“Winsun was obviously an accomplice of the Yuèlè Gōng in Huāyuè City. He took advantage of the Flower Appreciation Festival held in the city, with many visitors from outside, to specifically target women like me who were single and had some wealth. He deliberately approached me, flattered me, and tricked me into this so-called Yuèlè Gōng.”

"Miss, since you know, why do you still follow his orders"

Zhao Si, the head of the police, asked in confusion.

"My father told me, 'Actions without a reason are either malicious or deceitful.' And as a martial artist, when I encounter something like this, I naturally have to investigate. This is what led me to discover this poisonous tumor called the Extreme Bliss Palace."

Ripples stared at him with beautiful eyes, looking as if he shouldn't ask such a silly question.

Zhao Si twitched the corner of his mouth, feeling that this young lady's thoughts were a bit too self-centered. However, at least she had the strength to match it, otherwise she wouldn't be able to retreat unscathed.

Then she answered several more questions, each one with a ripple. Finally, she reminded the fisherman:

“That celestial being seemed like trouble from the get-go. He demanded money as soon as he arrived. I took advantage of this opportunity and had my maidservant report to the yamen, pretending I needed to write a letter for him. However, I saw a lot of gold and silver treasures stored in the Le Palace. They must have been provided by those foolish dupes who were taken advantage of. Captain Zhao, you could arrange for someone to search it.”

Zhao Si's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he said with a smile at the corner of his mouth:

"Thank you, Miss, for letting me know. Zhao Si understands. Miss, you must be shaken up. Please return to the inn and rest first."

"Thanks, Captain Zhao."

Ripple then, with Minmin's hand in hers, boarded Liang Chen's carriage and left the foot of the mountain first.

"Miss, that Winsome hasn't left yet. Shall I go and bring him back"

Liang Chen drove the carriage, and in a low voice, he asked.

We are just ordinary people, so we won't overstep our bounds. These matters are best handled by the officials in charge, and we shouldn't get involved to avoid unnecessary trouble.

The ripples directly rejected Liang Chen's proposal.

"Liang Chen understands!"

Although Liang Chen was somewhat regretful, he wouldn't disobey his young mistress's orders. He would just make a note of this to Wen Sun for later.

Back at the inn, Lian Yi invited Master and his disciple over before directly asking:

"Worry-free Daoist friend, how many people cultivate in your Ziyungong What are their cultivation levels"

Wu You was stunned for a moment before honestly replying:

“Our Ziyun Palace currently has one hundred and three disciples. Most of them have just entered the sect, like myself. There are about thirty of us with similar cultivation levels. My master, Ziyun, has the same cultivation level as Fairy Lu Yao. There are three uncles and masters who have the same cultivation level as my master, and they are all currently cultivating in Ziyun Palace.”

Ripple was a little worried after hearing this, the strength wasn't very high. But it was better than having a fake Taoist who couldn't do anything at all.

Please trouble Fellow Daoist to write a letter, informing your elders in Ziyun Palace that I will be visiting soon.

Rinna directly stated her meaning.

"Good!"

A carefree response should be very crisp and clear.

The young apprentice Feng Yu frowned tightly. He always felt that this Lu Yao Fairy's intentions were not pure.

Liàn yī gently smiled and didn't say much.

A group of people stayed in Huayue City for three more days, waiting for the Flower Viewing Festival to end. The government also had results by then. Among those captured from the Paradise Palace followers, several were people who had disappeared in Huayue City. Now that the government had confirmed it, their families all came looking for them.

The case was a public trial, and the Yuelyu Palace was judged to be a cult that used deception and illusions to swindle money and created multiple cases of kidnapping and disappearances. Most importantly, in the cave where the true form of the Immortal of Bliss as pointed out by Ripple was located, many skeletons were also dug up. This immediately caused a sensation throughout Huayue City.

As for the culprit, Jigokuji, the last person to see him was Ripples. Ripples, still kind-hearted, painted a portrait of him and presented it to the authorities, saying that her martial arts skills were inferior to his, allowing him to escape. The authorities can use this portrait to issue a warrant for his arrest.

The magistrate of Huayue City was usually a model official, but this incident had escalated to an unprecedented level. With the presence of Wuyou, a registered royal Taoist master, who testified and confirmed that Yu Le Palace was a heretical cult, nothing more than a deceptive sect, the magistrate found himself with renewed vigor and determination to conduct the trial.

And those parents of young men and women who had returned home after being lost, missing, or eloping were even more resentful of the Paradise Palace. They demanded that these villains be severely punished. In the end, all those who abetted the wicked were thrown into prison, the deceived individuals went home, and the stubborn ones were directly sent to perform labor service, including Winston.

Minmin secretly found Zhao Si and slipped him a silver note, then said that Wen Sun was a hypocrite in disguise, and to prevent him from causing further harm under the guise of being a scholar, they should send him to a remote place with heavy labor for reform.

Zhao Si understood immediately and readily accepted the fifty taels of silver note. He directly sent Wen Sun to a dark and desolate mine to dig iron ore. This was no ordinary place of forced labor; the iron mines were guarded by soldiers. Wen Sun this time truly went without return, he didn't even last a year before he died from exhaustion.

After handling the matters in Huayue City, Lianyi led Wuyou and his apprentice, entering a hurried travel mode to swiftly head towards Ziyun Palace.

While Liandao was napping in the car, he was contacted by Shiju.

"Nineteen, what did you find"

"I'm sorry, but part of this mission's information was covered up because the key facts regarding this interface's three reversions were obscured. As a result, the Time Management Agency automatically categorized it as an intermediate mission, which you just happened to select."

"That means I'm just unlucky!"

Ripples felt that if the stone mill were in front of her, she would definitely kick it.

“Cough! I've already reported this situation to the mission supervisor. Because you are currently in the middle of a mission, and it seems like you're making good progress, as this is the third retrospective, it's not advisable to forcibly interrupt the mission. After their research, they decided to let you continue completing this mission.”

"What if I also fail"

"The interface becomes the fodder for a devil's tool, and then the interface collapses! But since this mission information doesn't match your current assignment, even if you fail this task, it will be judged as a mission success."

"Since the mission was a success, that means I can take something away from this interface."

"Yes."

The stone mill hesitated for a moment, then replied.

"Understood, I'll try my best to keep this interface from collapsing."couple lay in bed, they both couldn't sleep, thinking about their daughter."Lao Han, let's move!""Good.""Rent or Buy a House""Sell this house now and buy a new one somewhere else. We'll never come bac...
