Supreme Emperor of Swords

Chapter 235 Two Little Girls

This man was called Zhou Zhihao, one of the top ten team leaders of the law enforcement teams. With a black face and a cold heart, he had a reputation for using cruel tactics in the market.

“Captain Zhou...” Wang Xiaoqi breathed a sigh of relief and hurried over with a smiling face. He explained what had happened in detail to Zhou Zhihao. At the end, he added, “Everything I said is true. Be fair to Heavenly World, please. We have been completely wronged.”

After getting what Wang Xiaoqi said with a frosty face, Zhou Zhihao maintained his composure. With sharp eyes, he looked at Sun Liang.

“It is totally one-sided words.” Sun Liang sneered at Wang Xiaoqi and came to Zhou Zhihao. He changed his face and looked indignant. He defended, “Captain Zhou, my brother bought a pleated steel sword yesterday for 100 taels of silver in Heavenly World. As we went hunting in the wilderness, he fought with fierce beasts, and the pleated steel sword suddenly broke. My brother was caught off guard and seriously injured on the spot. Later, we found that this sword was made of scrap iron and could not be used. It is clear that the shop is cheating customers. It is really abominable not to take the warriors’ life seriously. Captain Zhou, such a profiteer should not be tolerated to spoil the reputation of Swordsmanship-seeking Sect and it should be punished severely.”

Both sides held different opinions.

Zhou Zhihao was expressionless and it could not be seen what he was thinking about. He asked some people to bring over the almost-broken steel sword. After the careful observation, he flicked his fingers on the sword. With a clatter, the sword broke into two pieces and fell to the ground.

Seeing this, the law enforcement team leader immediately flew into a rage and said, “It is indeed a poor-quality sword! Disgusting! Our warriors have been going through fire and water, they have been hunting down demons and defending the peace of the human tribe. Now some profiteers have recklessly ignored the warriors’ lives and made inferior weapons that are so vulnerable. They should be punished by hacking.”

What he said was upright and resolute!

But Wang Xiaoqi changed his face. He recognized Zhou Zhihao’s implication. What Zhou Zhihao meant faintly that he seemed to agree with Su Liang, a bully and scoundrel.

“Come on. Put on the 50 kilograms of black iron shackles on people in Heavely World. They have carried out misconduct in doing business. They have sold a poor-quality sword to do harm to warriors. Send them to the Outer Hall for detention and interrogation with torture. This kind of thing must not be tolerated.”

Zhou Zhihao waved his hand and made a judgment that was totally biased towards Sun Liang and his team.

“Captain Zhou, you...” Wang Xiaoqi was angry and anxious, and he felt bitterly disappointed.

Why did this happen?

Wang Xiaoqi knew that he came from a family of businessmen and understood all kinds of rules, so he had visited many team leaders of law enforcement team secretly and sent valuable gifts successively, and he thought that he had broken through all key links.

Zhou Zhihao, in particular, had accepted Wang Xiaoqi’s large gifts three times. He once clapped his chest and promised that he would not make trouble to Heavenly World. How could he, at a critical moment, turn around and stand with Sun Liang?

Seeing what had happened, Sun Liang showed an arrogant and insiduous smile.

“Hey hey, the new boy, you fancy yourself clever. Do you think that your little scrap metal can deceive me? Captain Zhou did receive your gift, but this is a world where strength is the highest honor. Money and gifts you gave could not compare with my cousin’s words...”

He came up to Wang Xiaoqi’s ear and whispered gleefully with a teasing and contempt tone.

Wang Xiaoqi immediately understood what had happened. In a hurry, he pushed away the law enforcement team members witout further consideration and said loudly, “I refuse to obey your order! The inferior pleated steel sword was not bought in our shop...”

“Bold!”

“Unbridled!”

A series of explosive yelling sounded instantly.

Zhou Zhihao’s face was filled with anger. He flashed and grabbed Wang Xiaoqi by the collar. He almost lifted Wang Xiaoqi up and sneered, “Why? Do you dare to resist arrest? Brat! Think clearly about the consequences. For those who resist arrest, the law enforcement team has the right to kill them on the spot!”

“You...” Wang Xiaoqi felt very disappointed and so he no longer dared to resist.

He knew that this time he really failed.

In the past, he just watched that his father dealt with some family business. He thought he had learned the experiences of doing business from his family and had seen through people. In fact, he was not deeply involved in the world and was too young and thought of businesses simply.

This time, from the beginning it was a trap.

Sun Liang obviously had already set up a trap and lured him into it. Sun Liang and Zhou Zhihao were birds of a feather. It was ridiculous that he thought that everything was under his control, and incredibly still sent someone to ask the law enforcement team to come over, but he didn’t know the people he invited was not a helper but an accomplice!

Senior Brother Ding, I let you down!

Wang Xiaoqi felt regretful and sad. At the beginning he was in vigorous spirits and Ding Hao had high expectation of Heavenly World. Once thinking of these things, Wang Xiaoqi was somewhat frustrated. His original purpose was to make Heavenly World a cash cow and earn money for Ding Hao’s cultivation. Unexpectedly...

Unexpectedly he had screwed everything up!

Two law enforcement team officers came up and put the black iron shackles on Wang Xiaoqi and others in Heavenly World rudely and violently. The iron chains clanked, which made a dozen counterjumpers and maids including Linghu Yingying turn pale with fear and shiver. All of them became prisoners.

“Hahahahahaha. Captain Zhou, you have indeed wise eyes and you can tell who is right and who is wrong at a glance. You are doing the right thing. Not only this unruly boy but all the counterjumpers and maids in Heavenly World and all the low maids who held the candle to the devil should also be arrested.” Sun Liang laughed, being complacent as a winner, and said, “Such unscrupulous businessmen and scums who sell inferior wares and do harm to warriors should be severely punished and must not be tolerated!”

Zhou Zhihao smiled and nodded, and was about to say something...

But at this time, out of the crowd suddenly came the voice of a weak little girl—

“Bad people! You bought the sword from Baifeng Shop and you broke it yourself. I have seen it all.”

Although this voice was weak, at this moment it was very clear, and everyone present heard it.

Everyone changed the face, looking down the voice source.

It was a 10-year-old girl in coarse linen covered with patches of various colors. Nobody knew when she was pushed to the front of the circle. Staring at the crowd with the big black eyes, she said with great certainty.

Next to the little girl was another little one with a ponytail, and she was tightly holding her arm. She looked to be also about 10 years old.

The two little girls were very shabby in clothes, and their clothes were not worth even half a copper coin, so obviously they were from the slums. But both of them were extremely pretty with white and tender skin and big watery eyes like a clear spring in the mountains in autumn. They were so pure and made people feel heart-shaking. Like jade carvings, they were very cute and clever.
