Master of Strange Dao

Chapter 251: Proclaiming to the World, I'm Lost



The Ministry of Justice's King Juan sat with a somber expression, his eyes sharp.

He already felt, there were at least three groups of people ready to act, but they hadn't yet.

These people's reactions were indeed fast, but none were faster than him.

When No.5 struck the Petitioning Drum nine times, he spat out a mouthful of blood and fell down.

King Juan looked at No.5, waved his hand, covering his face, his expression becoming more grim.

This man was already on the brink of death, but he couldn't let him die now.

King Juan waved his hand, took out a top-notch life-extending medicine, to prolong his life, without showing any pain.

When No.5 awoke, someone immediately took him down and brought him into the Ministry of Justice.

Meanwhile, the news had already started spreading, widespread and loud.

No.5 feared someone might not understand, so to be clear, he directly stated that he came for revenge.

His words were straightforward and easy to understand, even a child could probably comprehend them.

Just by seeing his identity as a White Water Egg, naturally one would recall the court's years-ago attack on the internal traitors of the Mother River Divine Country.

And also recall the case of switching death row prisoners.

Now, no one could hold it down.

Within less than one incense stick's time since No.5 entered the Ministry of Justice, someone in the Jade Tablet heard one of the information channels discussing these matters.

Talking about the switching death row prisoners case, to Mother River Divine Country, and then mentioning this time it was a Faceless Man who struck the Petitioning Drum.

The efficiency was absurdly high, neither resembling the court nor the cultivator at all.

This was a channel controlled by one of the Princes, he naturally knew it wasn't him, so there was no need to consider it.

With the chance to ascend the throne, it would be either the Crown Prince or the Second Prince; no matter which of them was unlucky, he would be happy to see it.

He pushed and facilitated the fastest speed, so this matter could no longer be suppressed, becoming normal operations.

As for if the matter escalates, he might not gain any benefit, and might even annoy Emperor Qian once he knows; he had already thought of it.

But it wasn't important.

He was clearly aware, from Emperor Qian's arrangements before he closed off, it was evident that his chance of inheriting the throne was extremely low.

Once oppressed by the Crown Prince and Second Prince, unable to lift his head, if he had the chance for revenge, why would he think twice.

This matter, regardless of who, nobody could withstand it.

Even if not taken down and thrown into the Prison, this person would never have the opportunity to ascend again.

Once the trailblazer appeared, naturally more people immediately followed up.

The Second Prince's channel reacted swiftly, following to speak.

But the Second Prince's side added some private information, saying during the switching death row prisoners case, the Second Prince was indeed present.

The situation then became unexpected, all the White Water Eggs present would be exposed, and the Prince, at that time, had no reaction.

So the Prince mentioned on the Petitioning Drum couldn't possibly be the Second Prince.

With these words, he stopped abruptly.

But listeners naturally understood; as for which Prince among those said to have the chance to ascend, I won't say, but those who understand know.

This remarkable efficiency using the Jade Tablet.

Purely because, only in this way, now even the Regent Crown Prince couldn't suppress the news.

Before the existence of the Jade Tablet, even if the Petitioning Drum were struck, now if the Regent Crown Prince wanted to suppress it, it actually wouldn't be difficult.

According to the old speed of information transmission, several months might pass, and there would still be people in the Capital City unaware of this matter.

Further spreading outside, it would be even harder, don't know how long it would take.

Inside the Ministry of Justice's large prison, King Juan was personally interrogating.

No.5's tone was calm, with a great calmness when facing death, one could say he left nothing unsaid.

"You don't need to ask me, since I'm here, whatever I know I'll say.

Our organization's No.2 is a Prince of Daqian who has the chance to ascend the throne.

Since the organization was attacked last time, it has been half-crippled.

Now it's utterly defeated.

I am near death, I only want revenge.

As for the result, I don't care anymore.

If Daqian were willing to let our organization's No.2 succeed the throne, I wouldn't see that day.

I met him just a few days ago..."

King Juan listened with brows slightly furrowed, deeply troubled.

He was originally prepared to report, then follow procedures, allowing an audience to properly interrogate.

But there wasn't enough time, he could clearly feel this person's life force, blazing like fire, but it was merely a dying glow.

Couldn't wait for the usual joint trial of the three divisions, he could only come personally to interrogate.

Just listening to No.5 recounting case by case, he couldn't sit still, understanding that a major event was imminent.

The claim that the Prince was also a member of the White Water Egg organization grew more concrete.

Nearby, those recording his testimony were pale-faced, showing distressed expressions.

When the report came from outside, saying somebody arrived, several officers from the Ministry of Justice immediately saluted King Juan.

"Master, considering the years of my service, I hope the Lord will look after my family."

What shouldn't be known, too much is known.

Either smoothly elevate, or die miserably.

King Juan also felt troubled, he even felt his position wouldn't last long.

Walking down the path, he inexplicably thought of Song Chengyue, Daqian's greatest Minion.

Back then, he felt Song Chengyue was certainly going to die, edging closer to death day by day.

He thus privately warned himself, never to follow Song Chengyue's footsteps.

In Daqian, the Jinyi Wei are undoubtedly the first to meet disaster because they know too much.

But right after them, it's the Ministry of Justice.

When it comes to wide knowledge, seeing all sorts of dark and vile things, the Jinyi Wei really can't compare to the Ministry of Justice's variety.
