The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix

Chapter 308 - Su Waner Was Framed By The Whole Gang

In the northeast corner of the Heavenly Gate City, a twelve-story pavilion stood towering into the clouds, and there was also a secluded pavilion that exuded an evil aura.

The entrance to that pavilion was paved with stone bricks and led straight to the underground.

Xiao Yunluo followed the three Justice Division officers to this place, and they went to a window on the side to explain their intention. A few people came out, cupped their hands to Xiao Yunluo, then someone led her along the stone steps toward the underground.

The dungeon was dark and gave a claustrophobic feeling. As soon as Xiao Yunluo entered the underground, she felt a gloomy cold air blowing on her face.

After walking downward about a hundred feet, she came to a corridor, and at the end of the corridor, there was an iron door. In front of the door stood two Justice Division guards dressed in golden robes.

Neither of the two had a very high cultivation level. One was in the middle stage of the Foundation Building, while the other was in the late stage.

Xiao Yunluo followed the jailer who led the way to the iron gate. When the jailer opened the door with the key, she casually glanced at the guards standing on both sides of the iron gate.

But wait...

She swept another glance at the cultivator standing on the right side of the iron gate...

Another glance...

One more glance...

"Huh?!"

Her gaze went back and forth between the door and the face of the guard on the right three times. The hair on Xiao Yunluo's head stood up instantly. She opened her eyes wide and rubbed them again and again. "You..."

Liang Zhu replied politely, "My name is Liang Zhu. I am a low-ranking officer of the Justice Division."

"..."

Liang Zhu... Wasn't this Ye Anping's big brother? Why was he here? Was he a member of the Justice Division?

Countless question marks filled Xiao Yunluo's little head. She pursed her lips and wanted to ask, but looking at Liang Zhu, it seemed that he didn't remember her, so she just said in a low voice, "Have we met somewhere? I think you look familiar."

Liang Zhu pursed his mouth, glanced at the guard on the other side, and replied, "I am from the Western Region. I was originally an ordinary disciple of the Hundred Lotus Sect. Maybe we've met by chance before, but I am not qualified to catch Young Lady Xiao's attention."

"Is that so..."

Xiao Yunluo realized that he was probably hiding his identity or something, so she didn't insist. After the door opened, she looked at the people who wanted to lead her into the cell and said, "This guy looks familiar to me. Let him accompany me inside. The rest of you can wait outside."

The other three people were slightly surprised when they heard the words and glanced at Liang Zhu's face, seeming a little jealous. But they couldn't refuse, so they cupped their hands and complied.

After Xiao Yunluo entered the cell, what she saw was a woman hanging on the wall, tied with an Immortal Binding Lock, and covered in blood. She looked at the woman's face and then noticed her fairly plump chest. Feeling that it was not like the person who snatched her sword, she ignored her.

After Liang Zhu closed the cell door, Xiao Yunluo quickly took out a few soundproof talismans from her storage bag and pasted them in the four corners, asking, "Are you Big Brother Liang?"

"..."

Liang Zhu froze for a moment at this address and didn't know how to answer.

After deliberating for a while, he cupped his hands. "Young Lady Xiao, we have not seen each other since the Dragon House event. I am honored that you remembered me."

"So it really is you?!" Xiao Yunluo's eyes lit up. She looked up and down at the Justice Division robe worn by Liang Zhu, then raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why are you here?"

"Didn't Master Ye tell you?"

"Tell me... what?"

"..."

Liang Zhu originally thought that Xiao Yunluo should also be involved in his sixth brother's plan. After all, the Young Lady of the Black Star Sect was also one of his sixth brother's girls. But what was going on here? The Young Lady looked like she didn't know anything.

After a short hesitation, Liang Zhu asked, "Young Lady Xiao, don't you know that he arrived at the Heavenly Gate City? Didn't he contact you on the way?"

"No... He's here? Where is he now?"

"He's staying at an inn in the west of the city, the Flowing Moon Inn."

"Then, I'll go find him now."

With that, Xiao Yunluo no longer paid attention to Su Waner, who was hanging on the wall, staring at them resentfully. She turned around and wanted to rush out.

Seeing her like this, Liang Zhu was speechless and quickly stopped her. "Young Miss Xiao, let's finish this business before you go, okay?"

"Oh..."

Xiao Yunluo suddenly realized that she was overwhelmed by the good news, and lowered her head, blushing.

She didn't know if it was because she was always with her mother and couldn't read those books, but in the past few months, she had been thinking about Ye Anping and fantasizing about hundreds of ambiguous interactions as they lived together.

"Ah... that's right. Well, there's no rush. But why did he come to the Imperial Sect suddenly? Did he find out I came here and followed after me because he was worried?"

"... That should be it."

Liang Zhu sighed, pointed at Su Waner, who remained silent, and said, "Young Lady Xiao, please identify this person as the Immortal Thief. After I leave a statement too, the Inspector's case can be closed."

Xiao Yunluo turned her head to look at Su Waner, asking, "Did Ye Anping ask you to do this?"

"Well... that's what he said."

"Then, I'll just tell those people outside that she is the Immortal Thief, right? Is there anything else?"

"No, nothing else."

"Okay!"

Liang Zhu breathed a sigh of relief, took out a document he had already prepared from his storage bag, and handed it to Xiao Yunluo to sign as if these statements were made by her.

Without even glancing at the content, Xiao Yunluo took out a pen from the storage bag without saying a word and wrote her name on it.

And looking at this scene, Su Waner, who had not said anything so far, finally couldn't help herself anymore and shouted, "Hey~~ What are you doing?! How can you be like this? Are you ganging up to frame me?! Have I eaten your food?! Where did you see I'm a thief?!"

Xiao Yunluo glanced at her but still ignored her. After signing, she asked again, "Brother Liang, is this okay? Can I go?"

Liang Zhu looked at Xiao Yunluo's signed testimonial, and at this moment, feeling somewhat sympathetic to Su Waner, he asked, "Miss Xiao, since you didn't even confirm that she is the Immortal Thief, why did you sign and identify her?"

"Isn't this what Anping said?" Xiao Yunluo was a little taken aback. After a pause, she continued, "He must have his reasons for doing this. I trust him."

"..."

Seeming a little impatient, Xiao Yunluo nodded slightly to say goodbye, then turned around and walked to the cell door.

"Well, I'll just go later and ask him why he did this. Brother Liang, I'll take my leave now."

"..."

Watching Xiao Yunluo open the door in a hurry and rush out, Liang Zhu sighed slightly and looked at the signed testimony in his hand with complicated emotions. He then glanced at Su Waner, hanging in the air.

Su Waner was dazed for a while, then looked at Liang Zhu and asked, "Hey, you, the one named Liang, was that the Young Lady of the Black Star Sect?"

"Yeah, why do you ask?"

"She didn't even give me a chance to argue my case!" Su Waner looked confused. "Also, who is that guy, Ye? How could he make the Young Lady so obedient? Is this for real?"

Liang Zhu lightly exhaled as he put the papers into the storage bag, saying, "Have you heard of Yun Tianchong?"

"I have."

"Then, it's easy, he's 'Ye Tianchong'."
