Chapter 238 Stolen Fragrance
Tang Can said angrily, "Lin Yan, don't forget that even if Chen Xian is not the deputy director of the Demon Suppression Bureau now, he still has another identity, the Marquis of Divine Bravery. His Majesty only removed him from office and imprisoned him, and did not let you torture him. He is the Marquis of Daning, and if you really want to torture him, you must get His Majesty's permission. If you dare to torture him privately, you have also violated the laws of Daning."

"hehe!"

Lin Yan sneered. Princess Shangyang always had a bad face when seeing him. She was really annoying. "General Tang, this is not something you should be concerned about. Go back to your Fengtian military camp."

Xiahou Feng said coldly: "Chen Xian is my friend Xiahou Feng. If you execute him privately before His Majesty orders the interrogation, don't blame me for being rude. Even if I can't beat you, I, Xiahou Feng, have ways to deal with you."

Lin Yan was immediately annoyed: "Xiahou Feng, you dare to threaten me?"

Xiahou Feng said firmly: "I'm threatening you, what can you do?"

Lin Yan clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, "Okay, okay, your Xiahou family is so powerful! We'll see!"

Xiahou Feng looked disdainful and left with Tang Can.

Lei Yunteng looked at the two men's backs with a serious expression and said nothing.

There are three royal families with different surnames in the Daning Dynasty, the Fengtian Lu family, the Xiliang Tang family and the Dongyou Xiahou family.

Although the Lu family was named a king of a different surname by Taizu of Daning, members of the Lu family basically did not hold office in the court and only had an empty title.

The Tang family of Xiliang and the Xiahou family of Dongyou are the kings of different surnames who truly hold power.

The Tang family army guards the Huang clan, and the Xiahou family controls an army of 500,000 to suppress demons and guard the Demon Abyss, with many powerful men under their command.

The ancestors of the Tang family and the Xiahou family both have the ability to break through the realm of space and are human martial emperors.

Even though Emperor Ning was respectful to the Tang and Xiahou families, even if one of the two families made a mistake, Emperor Ning always spoke politely and never used his imperial status to oppress others.

Therefore, among the eight prefectures, the two royal palaces of different surnames were not taken seriously at all.

“Tang Can, Xiahou Feng, if it weren’t for the fact that your ancestors are Martial Emperors, you would be nothing.” Lin Yan clenched his fists, his eyes filled with anger.

There is no Martial Emperor among the eight prefectures, the strongest is no more than one with great supernatural powers.

Otherwise, how could Lin Yan bear this anger?

It’s the end of August.

In Daning Palace, Emperor Ning had been ordering a thorough investigation of Chen Xian and Prince Feng. However, there was nothing to investigate about Chen Xian. Apart from the evidence that Yu Wencheng presented to the palace, Chen Xian had no other evil deeds.

Emperor Ning also had people investigate thoroughly the evidence presented by Yu Wencheng. Although Chen Xian's actions were extreme, they were all aimed at punishing the wicked and eliminating evil.

On the other hand, there is a lot of evidence of Prince Feng's crimes. He abuses his power, bullies men and women, takes human lives lightly, uses the Baquan Sect to make money, colludes with demons, and secretly connects with the Black Corpse Sect. Even the secret dealings between Prince Feng and the eldest prince were discovered by Emperor Ning.

"Call the eldest prince!" Emperor Ning's face was solemn.

Wei Cheng nodded tremblingly, bowed and left.

Not long after, the eldest prince Ning Quan arrived at Daning Palace. When he saw that Emperor Ning looked unhappy, he quickly bowed his head and said, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you, Father!"

Snapped!
Emperor Ning threw a pile of evidence of Prince Feng's crimes and the evidence of his contacts with Ning Quan in front of Ning Quan.

Ning Quan went forward to pick it up and took a look. His face was immediately filled with fear. He knelt on the ground with a plop and said tremblingly, "Father, this, this... I have never had any contact with Prince Feng!"

Yes, but I refuse to admit it.

Emperor Ning stared at Ning Quan coldly: "Whether there is any contact, you know better than me. Lin Yan and Lei Yunteng privately executed Chen Xian in Fengtian Realm. Was it your idea?"

Ning Quan trembled all over when he heard this and said, "Father, I don't know. I have been busy settling the prince and princess of the demon tribe recently. I also know about Feng Tian's situation, but I haven't made time to deal with it yet."

"I never thought that the Divine and Brave Marquis would be so bold and reckless as to kill Uncle Prince Feng. I hope your Majesty will understand."

"What the hell!"

Emperor Ning shouted in a deep voice, and as he spoke, he looked at the old eunuch Wei Cheng and said, "Pass on my oral order, Chen Xian will be detained for the time being, and no private punishment shall be used against him. The Demon Suppression Division, Demon Suppression Division, Demon Suppression Army, and Fengtian Army shall first solve the problem of demon plague, and there must be no mistakes."

"Yes, Your Majesty. I will convey your order right away." Wei Cheng nodded respectfully, looked up at the eldest prince Ning Quan, then turned and walked out of the hall.

long time.

Fengtian City Lord Duan Tianjun received the emperor's oral order and personally called Lu Jiangyuan, Lin Yan and Lei Yunteng to give them some instructions.

"Don't punish Chen Xian privately. His Majesty has ordered that he be imprisoned. In addition, His Majesty has ordered that the demon problem be dealt with as soon as possible. The 50,000 demon-suppressing troops have already set out. Lu Sizheng, order all the demon-suppressing guards under your command to rush to the edge of the Shiwan Mountains and clear out the demons."

Hearing this, Lu Jiangyuan nodded and fully cooperated with Duan Tianjun.

Lin Yan was very dissatisfied. It seemed that Princess Seventeen had returned to the palace to speak well of Chen Xian. Otherwise, if Chen Xian had offended the royal family, Emperor Ning would definitely not simply imprison Chen Xian.

"Damn bastard, he's so lucky!" Lin Yan cursed coldly in his heart.

……

Fengtian Prison.

Chen Xian's clothes were disheveled, but the burnt color on his skin had returned to normal. The jailer did not dare to mistreat Chen Xian and treated him with good wine and meat every day.

Chen Xian turned a deaf ear to the outside world and focused on cultivation.

The cluster of Yang Fire in the Niwan Palace was getting stronger and stronger, and was already the size of a fist. As his Yang Fire grew stronger, he found that the cracks on his soul body showed a tendency to close, but they were not obvious enough.

At this moment, an old hand stretched out from the wall flashing with lightning and touched the wine jar beside Chen Xian.

Chen Xian didn't even open his eyes. He raised his hand and slapped the old man on the back of his hand. The old hand shrank and disappeared into the wall.

Chen Xian then opened his eyes. In recent days, a hand always stretched out from the wall to steal his wine. He was very surprised at first, but then he realized that it was the person in the cell next door.

Chen Xian was even more surprised. Not only was the cell built extremely solid, the lightning formation on it was also extremely terrifying. Even if he did not have the power of lightning in his body, the lightning formation would cause great harm to him.

However, the old man in the cell next door was able to reach his hand through the wall, which was obviously a supernatural power.

"Boy, don't be so stingy. I'll just give you some wine to get rid of the bad luck. Just pretend you didn't see it." An old and humorous voice came from the next room. Chen Xian rolled his eyes and said, "Taking something without asking is stealing. If you want to drink, just tell me. Why did you sneakily take my wine?"

"Hahaha...boy, don't you know that stolen wine tastes delicious?"

"...!!"

Chen Xianya was speechless, but he thought that this old man was quite interesting.

“Why is the old man imprisoned here?

"Who the hell is Wei He? How could he hold this old man in captivity? The old man was being chased and came here to hide... Oops, I let it slip!"

"...!!"

Chen Xian was speechless. This old man was really interesting.

"With your magical powers, this cell really can't hold you. If you want to drink, why don't you come over and have a chat?"

"What the hell, the old man doesn't know you well, just tell me, will you let the old man drink your wine secretly?"

Chen Xian shook his head speechlessly. This old man was really weird.

"May I ask what you call me, senior?"

"Don't call me senior, just call me old lunatic. Stop talking nonsense, the old man is going to steal your wine...!"

"...!!"

Chen Xian was speechless, he saw the old hand in the wall reaching out again and touching the wine jar.

But the old man moved very quickly and retracted his hand after touching it.

Then the old man didn't reach out again.

"Senior Crazy, you stole the wine to drink, I've prepared it, go ahead and steal it."

"When you are ready, the old man will be full."

Chen Xian was stunned and quickly opened the wine jar beside him to take a look, only to see that the wine inside was already empty.

He couldn't help blinking.

There must be a very powerful person in the realm of supernatural powers imprisoned next door.

Chen Xian stood up and walked to the cell door, called the jailer, asked him to bring more good wine, and gave the jailer ten taels of silver.

"My Lord, I haven't spent all the money you gave me last time."

"Take it."

Chen Xian raised his hand and threw ten taels of silver toward the jailer.

The jailer also had a look of respect on his face. He took the ten taels of silver and turned around and left quickly.

……

It’s mid-September in a blink of an eye.

Emperor Ning dispatched 50,000 demon-suppressing troops, together with 100,000 soldiers from the Demon Suppression Bureau, Demon Suppression Bureau and Fengtian Army to suppress the movement. Within half a month, all the demons that escaped from the Black Abyss in the Hundred Thousand Mountains were killed.

Even the demons on the edge of the Black Abyss were swept away by the demon-suppressing army and driven to the south of the Black Abyss.

The problem of missing people in Fengtian Realm has finally been solved.

However, the unrest in the Black Abyss cannot be suppressed yet, and the Demon-Suppressing Army cannot suppress it either.

In order to prevent any unexpected situations, Emperor Ning ordered to leave 10,000 demon-suppressing soldiers in the Fengtian military camp, on standby at all times.

Duan Tianjun, the Lord of Fengtian City, finally breathed a sigh of relief. This time, the number of missing people due to the demon plague reached more than 30,000, and Emperor Ning did not blame him, otherwise he would not be able to continue his work as the Lord of the City.

The general commander of demon suppression.

"Ahem...How is Chen Xian now?"

In the Demon-Suppressing Hall, Lu Jiangyuan coughed lightly and asked a black-clothed officer. During this extermination operation, he was injured by a great demon saint in the Black Abyss and needed to recuperate.

"My lord, Chen Xian is imprisoned on the fourth floor of the prison. Every day he either practices martial arts or drinks with that drunkard." Wan Hu in black bowed and said.

"Drunkard?" Lu Jiangyuan frowned: "Is he still in jail?"

"Yes, sir. It's been more than half a year and Hong can't be driven away." Wan Hu in black clothes felt a headache when he thought of something.

Lu Jiangyuan waved his hand and said, "Let him do whatever he wants. If he wants to leave, he can go. If he wants to stay, he can stay. But we must treat him well, especially with wine."

"Yes, sir!" The black-clothed Wan Hu nodded and asked, "Sir, your injury...?"

Lu Jiangyuan shook his head and said, "It's okay, you will be fine after a period of recuperation. Give orders, the demon problem has been temporarily suppressed, but the unusual movement in the Black Abyss has not been resolved. Tell the people in the Demon Suppression Division below to pay attention and report any unexpected situations immediately."

"It's my lord!"

"Also, I have received news that the remnants of the Black Corpse Sect have appeared in the Black Abyss. I have asked Wei Tong and the other two to keep an eye on the Black Abyss and track down the whereabouts of the Black Corpse Sect."

"Yes, sir. I will do it immediately." The black-clad Wanhu turned and left.

Lu Jiangyuan sat in the hall, rubbing his chest with his hands, staring outside the hall, muttering to himself: "Your Majesty has been keeping Chen Xian locked up and not dealing with him. I don't know what his intention is?"

It has been almost a month since Chen Xian killed Prince Feng. At the beginning, Lin Yan used the formation on the cell to interrogate Chen Xian, and there was no movement in the palace afterwards.
