Immortal Kingdoms

Chapter 199 Disciplinary Committee

"You dare attack in this place?!" The knight roared, shocked and angry.

Everyone was stunned, looking down at the men who were rolling and writing on the ground while screaming in pain, those who didn't brazenly eye out Blaire's embarrassing figure felt absolutely lucky.

A powerful aura suddenly locked down the area, weighing down on everyone's hearts.

In the corner not that far away, an old man who was sweeping the floor suddenly sighed, shaking his head while muttering something to himself. While almost everyone felt pressured to the point of being unable to breathe by this aura, the old man continued to sweep the floor as though this had nothing to do with him.

Blaire almost fell to her knees, but Leonardo took a step forward to protect her from suffering any kind of humiliation. He didn't know whether or not this had anything to do with finding the second fragment of the broken throne, but the change in Leonardo's temperament was even more evident.

He wouldn't tolerate anyone disrespecting him even if done via proxy, and thus he acted almost by pure instinct. Only a bit of rationality stopped him from blowing their heads open right there and then.

Leonardo's vision blurred as a middle-aged man in embroidered uniform suddenly stepped out from thin air, the aura of a rebirth realm cultivator, though only at the molding core stage, suffused the area.

Leonardo's pupils dilated as he immediately sealed up his connection to his sub-dimension with a dense layer of desolation, making it seem as though he was yet to succeed in establishing a stable connection to a sub-dimension if someone were to probe his cultivation.

Still, Leonardo worried too much as if it weren't for the heartbeat from the black heart, not even the consciousness of a Star Lord cultivator could reach that far in the space between the corporeal and ethereal planes.

There was the medal of a balancing scale pinned on the man's right shoulder, a black and white star on each scale respectively.

This was the medal of the Disciplinary Committee, they seem to have been alarmed by Leonardo's actions.

"Please follow me back to the Disciplinary Committee," although the man asked politely, his tone was cold, anyone could tell that he wasn't going to take no for an answer.

Something about this man's gaze infuriated Leonardo even more.

Since when did he fall to the point where even an ordinary non-cultivator female could drag him down to her schemes?

He had long been suppressing this annoyance.

Moreover, he had publicly declared that Blaire was no longer a free woman, she was his property, yet these idiots dare disrespect him by foolishly enjoying her humiliation.

"From which hole did you crawl out from now? I've given you enough face by not killing these garbage employees who can't keep their eyes where they belong, what thing is your Disciplinary Committee?"

The middle-aged man didn't seem very angry. In fact, there was a bit of a pity in his eyes as he nonchalantly waved his hand.

Splash!

With a crunching noise, over twenty people who were rolling on the ground were squashed like meat pancakes, their blood, flesh, and bones weaving in the air.

The man then spoke in his trademark cold voice, "Although they have disgraced the dignity of the Magistrate Manor and are deserving of death, it is not up to you to judge their sins, much less punish them. Hence, I'll invite you once more, or else…"

Leonardo was a bit surprised that this man straight up killed everyone involved and the scene descended into silence.

p??d?-???ê|·?ó? No one dared say a word, though their hearts were racing.

The man from the Oliver Estate specifically felt like this was an interesting turn of events, thinking that as long as Leonardo was escorted away, taking care of that Blaire girl wouldn't be that difficult.

Blaire seemed to have the same train of thought as she clutched on Leonardo's back subconsciously, already scared to be either left behind or casually killed like the other group of people.

As for Leonardo, although this was a snap decision of his due to a flare of his subconscious temperament of a dignified king, his thoughts were clear and he decided to go all out with the act.

Thus, he summoned a tier 4 black bow from his storage ring and pointed it directly at the rebirth realm cultivator who was a few hundred meters away.

The man arched a brow, his face frosting over with unbraided killing intent as Leonardo's acts were no different from raising a weapon against his Disciplinary Committee, and by extension, the Magistrate Manor.

Cold gasps resounded as the people who were stunned into silence a moment ago quickly began to distance themselves from this sudden turn of events, some even praising Leonardo for being an absolute lunatic in their hearts.

Leonardo didn't care about any of that and instead waved his right hand in the air.

Black lightning crackled as a trace of heaven retribution radiated from the lightning, these minute waves were perceived by only the rebirth realm cultivator as every rebirth cultivator had to go through the heavenly retribution to initiate the construction of an inner world in the form of a star core.

Just as the man was surprised that someone could grasp the laws of heavenly retribution, his facial expression that was as cold as ice cracked uncomfortably as the tongues of lightning formed into three arrows.

Following this, each of the three arrows split into a group of three, totaling to nine arrows.

Then, the nine arrows lined up on the bowstring, slowly fusing into one another. Of course, slowly from the perspective of the rebirth realm cultivator as he could have interpreted the motion a thousand times over by now, but everything seemed smooth like flowing water in the eyes of those on standby.

To the side, the old man's turbid eyes flashed with a bit of unease as he recognized the origins of this archery technique, but the man from the Disciplinary Committee had also recognized the infamous Ninth Inception Arrow, it was his job to recognize it.

Of course, he wouldn't let Leonardo complete the technique lest its aura alarmed more people than necessary, hence his domain exploded and extinguished Leonardo's worldly energy from manifesting outside his body.

At the same time, a shroud of light stunned everyone's eyes and by the time they saw what was going on, Leonardo and Blaire were gone together with that man. Furthermore, a voice saying that no one is permitted to leave till further notice resounded in their heads along with a feeling of space being locked.

Not even communication bracelets could be utilized to connect with the outside world now, making everyone feel weird and uneasy.

No one was an idiot here and they all knew that the rebirth realm cultivator could have killed Leonardo within moments if he truly wished to punish him accordingly. However, Leonardo was instead brought back, which could only hint at Leonardo's background as something that even the Disciplinary Committee can't casually wave off.

…

"Instant transposition?"

Leonardo spoke after a moment of disorientation, finding himself in a closed off room of blank walls and a simple desk in front.

The man from earlier was standing respectfully next to the empty desk, his expression somewhat grave. As for Blaire, she was nowhere to be found, but Leonardo didn't worry about her.

No one would be stupid enough to actually kill her after what he did back there.

Leonardo frowned as there weren't any other chairs in the room other than the high chair behind the desk. However, he remained silent and waited patiently.
