Chapter 789: Doing Justice for Heaven

"This is it." Li Yang whispered, "You guys stay outside and I'll go in and take a look."

The subordinates were worried and said: "Sir, do you want us to go in together?"

Li Yang shook his head: "No need. That person is very cunning and will probably escape if he notices anything unusual."

"It won't arouse suspicion if I go in alone."

After saying that, Li Yang walked into the 깊 inn alone.

He pretended to be an ordinary guest and looked around in the lobby.

Suddenly, he noticed a man in black robe sitting in the corner.

The man lowered his head and didn't know what he was doing.

Li Yang's heart moved and he slowly walked towards the man.

Just as he was about to approach, the man seemed to notice something and raised his head sharply.

The moment their eyes met, Li Yang was shocked.

It turned out to be an extremely young face, looking like he was only in his early twenties.

Those eyes are full of vicissitudes of life and coldness, and they don't look like the look that a young man should have.

"Your Excellency..." Li Yang asked tentatively.

The man smiled coldly: "Oh, I didn't expect that the majestic National Master would come to me in person."

Li Yang felt a chill in his heart, knowing that the other party had recognized him.

He stopped pretending and asked directly: "Are you the murderer who committed crimes in the capital recently?"

The young man did not deny it, but smiled and said: "That's right...what, is the Imperial Master here to arrest me?"

Li Yang said in a deep voice: "Why do you want to kill innocent people?"

The smile on the young man's face suddenly disappeared, replaced by deep hatred:

"Innocent? Hahaha... Which one of them is innocent?!"

"Do you know what they have done?!"

Li Yang frowned and said, "What do you mean?"

The young man sneered and said: "Wang Erhu, on the surface he is honest and responsible, but in fact he often steals money from restaurants."

"That official son is even more of a scumbag. He often bullies men and dominates women!"

"As for the others...hey, they all appear to be gentlemen, but behind their backs they do all kinds of hurtful and unreasonable things!"

Li Yang was shocked when he heard this.

Although he investigated those victims.

But he never expected that in this world, there would be such...

I like people who are chivalrous and righteous.

I really don’t know if this guy is real or something else.

But he quickly came to his senses and said in a deep voice:

"They made mistakes and they should be handed over to the government."

"Is it right for you to kill innocent people like this?"

The young man snorted coldly: "The government? 녦Laugh! Which of those big shots are not just a bunch of people?"

"My father was killed by these people back then!"

Li Yang raised his eyebrows slightly: "Your father?"

The young man gritted his teeth and said, "That's right! My father was once an upright official in the court, but he was framed to death for offending the powerful."

"And those who killed him are still at large in the court!"

"So I swear, I will make these people pay the price!"

After hearing this, Li Yang couldn't help but sigh: "I see... However, I can help you find out your father's injustice, but it is not your way to kill innocent people like this."

The young man sneered: "Tao? There is no Tao in this world!"

"If you are all so righteous, why did you just watch my father die tragically?!"

Li Yang said seductively: "What you are doing now will only cause more innocent people to suffer."

"Come back with me, and I can help you investigate your father's case thoroughly and give him justice."

The young man was silent for a moment, then suddenly laughed wildly: "Hahaha...it's too late! It's too late!"

"I can't look back! Since this world is so dark, I will let it fall completely!"

As he spoke, he stood up suddenly, exuding a powerful evil aura.

When Li Yang saw this, he was no longer polite and immediately got into a fighting stance.

At this critical moment, a sharp shout suddenly came: "Stop!"

The two of them were startled and turned to look.

I saw a white-haired old man standing at the door, looking at the young man with a sad face.

When the young man saw the old man, his expression changed drastically: "You...why are you here?!"

The old man approached slowly and sighed: "Ah Hui, how could you become like this..."

Li Yang looked at the old man, then at the young man, and suddenly understood something: "You are..."

The old man turned to Li Yang, bowed slightly and said, "I am Zhang Hongyuan, the former Minister of War."

"This kid... is my apprentice."

"Oh?" Li Yang raised his head slightly and looked at the young man, "Are you Zhang Hui, Master Zhang's close disciple?"

Zhang Hui sneered: "Heh, it seems that the Imperial Master still has some understanding of me."

Li Yang frowned and said, "I heard about you when I was looking through the files inside the court..."

"After your father died unjustly, you studied under Mr. Zhang."

"It is said that he is gifted with extraordinary talents and is a rare miracle. I didn't expect..."

Zhang Hongyuan said sadly: "It was my negligence."

"I thought that letting Ah Fai concentrate on practicing martial arts would help him forget his hatred."

"Unexpectedly...it would lead him to this path of no return."

Zhang Hui looked at his master coldly: "Master, please stop being so hypocritical."

"When your father was killed, you clearly had the ability to find out the truth, so why did you stand idly by?"

Zhang Hongyuan sighed: "Ah Hui, things are not as simple as you think."

"The situation back then was complicated and involved a wide range of people."

"If I intervene rashly, I'm afraid it will cause greater turmoil."

"So you choose to protect yourself?" Zhang Hui sneered, "You are really an old fox in the court."

Li Yang interrupted: "Okay, your master is also thinking about the overall situation. Many things in this world are not black and white."

Zhang Hui turned to Li Yang and roared:

"What do you know?! Do you know how my father died?"

"He was poisoned and suffered for seven days and seven nights!"

"I saw him rolling and wailing on the bed with my own eyes, but I was powerless... Do you know what that feels like?!"

Li Yang was speechless for a moment.

Zhang Hongyuan stepped forward and said earnestly:

"Ah Hui, I know the pain in your heart."

"But what you are doing now will only cause more innocent people to suffer."

"Is this really the result you want?"

Zhang Hui sneered: "Innocent? There are no innocent people in this world! Those who died at my hands, who didn't deserve it?"

Li Yang said: "Even if they are guilty, they should be handed over to the government for punishment."

"You are killing people wantonly, what's the difference between you and those who hurt your father?"

Zhang Hui trembled slightly when he heard this.

But soon, he returned to his cold expression: "Oh, that sounds nice."

"But those real villains are still free and easy in the court, aren't they?"

Zhang Hongyuan sighed: "Ahui, I know the hatred in your heart... But if your father is still alive, he will be even more heartbroken to see you now."

"Shut up!" Zhang Hui roared, "Don't mention my father again!"

As he said that, he waved his hand violently, and a black air rushed straight to Zhang Hongyuan.

Seeing this, Li Yang hurriedly stepped forward and used a golden light to disperse the black air.

"Master Zhang," Li Yang said in a deep voice, "I know you have resentment in your heart, but don't do something that cannot be undone."

Zhang Hui looked at Li Yang coldly: "What? As a great national master, are you still afraid of me?"

Li Yang shook his head: "I'm not afraid of you... I just feel a little sorry."

"Isn't it good to reform yourself and become a new person?"

Zhang Hui heard this, and a complicated look flashed in his eyes.

But soon, he returned to his indifference: "It's too late... It's too late..."

As he said this, a strong evil spirit suddenly burst out from his body.

Instantly, the whole inn began to shake.

Seeing this, Li Yang's face changed: "Not good! He wants to self-destruct!"

Then he made a prompt decision and sprinkled a nut wall seed on the ground.

At the same time, he activated the soul jade to make it reappear.
