Chapter 379: 379

The middle-aged deacon’s gaze landed on the spear embedded in the long-haired young lady’s chest . Blood was still dripping down the spear . His gaze turned cold as he stared at Di Jiu . “You’re just a nobody who recently arrived at the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City, and yet you dared to kill someone in the city . Follow me back to the Gigantic Tripod Law Enforcement Hall . ”





Di Jiu swallowed the words he had been about to say and said in a similarly frosty tone, “Deacon Lu, the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City has always been an Immortal City that promotes freedom, equality, and democracy . Since when do you hold absolute power and make the final call about anything?”

Di Jiu would definitely not do something brainless like follow the deacon to the Law Enforcement Hall if he wished to live .

Deacon Lu was enraged . Di Jiu did not wait for the deacon to speak . Instead, he cupped his fists towards the surrounding spectating cultivators and said, “Fellow Daoists, when this deacon came, he did not ask me a single question . He tried to take me away after hearing only one side of the story . This is because I am an insignificant Itinerant Cultivator, and the other party involved knew Deacon Lu . I truly do not know how a man could become a criminal according to Deacon Lu in the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City . Furthermore, one could be exempted from the Gigantic Tripod’s law, no matter how grave the crime committed was, if they knew Deacon Lu . ”

“Ha ha! That is right . A mere deacon thinks that he holds absolute power and controls the entire Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City . Does City Lord Mi know about this?” said a queer voice that came from the crowd .

Deacon Lu was alarmed . He had acted fast because Di Jiu was a mere Immortal Lord nobody who had just come to the Immortal City . Di Jiu would not have dared resist in the slightest even if he was taken away . Deacon Lu only realized after Di Jiu had opposed him so boldly that if the latter could be so easily bullied, he would not have arrogantly used that spear to pin the daughter of Thousand Maples Immortal Sect Master Huang Yetian .

Now, Di Jiu had recounted everything in a loud voice . If the City Lord heard about this incident… Actually, even if the Hall Master heard about this, he would lose his post as a deacon .

At this thought, Deacon Lu said coldly, “Tell me then, what exactly happened?”

Di Jiu said in disdain, “You are a useless deacon without any capabilities or power . However, today, I will recount what happened . I believe that everyone is just, and not everyone would act like Deacon Lu, who disregards the laws of the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City and treats Itinerant Cultivators as he pleases . ”

Deacon Lu’s eyes flashed with killing intent . However, he could not kill Di Jiu in broad daylight even if he wished to do so .





Di Jiu pointed at Huang Quan and said, “I’m Di Jiu, the owner of the Starry Sky Tea House . This woman and this store took out a fake Glazed Heaven Immortal Fruit to deceive the cultivators passing by . A tree pet of mine was passing through and was forcibly pushed to the crowd . Afterward, it was purposely pushed beside the fake Glazed Heaven Immortal Fruit and it pushed over the fruit . Everyone saw what happened next very clearly They wanted my Tiny Tree Root to compensate for the Glazed Heaven Immortal Fruit and even broke one of its limbs . At the same time, they pinned my Junior Sister to this stone pillar . ”

The cultivators who had arrived later finally discovered what had happened . It was Huang Quan who had started it .

The middle-aged man who had rushed out from the store laughed . “On what basis do you claim that the Glazed Heaven Immortal Fruit was a fake? Is it not possible that my store took out a real Glazed Heaven Immortal Fruit?”

The crowd fell silent . Everyone knew that the Glazed Heaven Immortal Fruit had to be a fake . Only a fool would auction off the real fruit . However, what this middle-aged man said was right as well . Everything he claimed would be true if no evidence was presented .

Di Jiu sneered and lifted an orange Alchemist Token . “I’m a grade-three Alchemy Master recognized by the Elixir Associations of the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City . I possess some knowledge about the Glazed Heaven Immortal Fruit . After the fruit fell to the ground, greenery would flourish there if it was real . Take a look, everyone . Do you see greenery anywhere?”

It was very obvious . No one really needed to see . After all, the Glazed Heaven Immortal Fruit was obviously a fake . Deacon Lu frowned, as he had not expected that Di Jiu would have such a background . Who knew that he was a recognized Alchemy Master of the Elixir Association?

The middle-aged man snorted . “The Glazed Heaven Immortal Fruit I was selling was a mutated one . Its value was even higher, and its characteristics were different from the average Glazed Heaven Immortal Fruit’s . ”

“If you’ve nothing to say about that, follow me to the Law Enforcement Hall . ” Deacon Lu stared at Di Jiu frostily . Di Jiu’s extravagant account would make it seem normal if he wanted to take Di Jiu away . Surely, many people must have seen the Tiny Tree Root cause the Glazed Heaven Immortal Fruit to fall . However, Di Jiu had no evidence to prove what he had said . Although everyone might believe what Di Jiu had said, that could not be used as evidence .

Di Jiu snorted in disdain . “Make way, everyone . I have something to show you all . ”





The surrounding crowd parted subconsciously . Di Jiu took out hundreds of array flags and started throwing them continuously .

In just half an hour, clear, continuous images appeared in the sky, showing the Glazed Heaven Immortal Fruit being auctioned on the streets . When Little Tree squeezed into the crowd to take a look, it was pushed by someone . This act caused the Glazed Heaven Immortal Fruit to fall to the ground .

However, after the Glazed Heaven Immortal Fruit fell to the ground, it did not disintegrate into nothingness . Instead, it was put away by the middle-aged man who had rushed out of the store .

Even a fool could see that the Glazed Heaven Immortal Fruit was a fake . It was indisputable that the people from the store had schemed against Tiny Tree Root .


“This is the Playback Immortal Array…”

“That’s so formidable…”

Someone exclaimed from the crowd . The incident had taken place only a short while ago, but it would take a top-notch Great Immortal Array Master to set up a Playback Immortal Array in half an hour and replay the whole thing .

The Playback Immortal Array was an Immortal Array that would replicate past scenes through the use of various Immortal Essence fluctuations . The longer the time that had passed, the harder it would be for the scenes to be replicated .

Di Jiu scoffed . A Playback Immortal King? The Immortal Array he had just set up was no ordinary Playback Immortal Array, as a usual Playback Immortal Array would not be able to replicate images so clearly . The act of replicating the recordings by using Dharma Arrays could not be accomplished by even a level-six Great Immortal Array Master . Di Jiu was able to do so only because he was a level-seven Immortal Array King .





“He he… You just pushed my pet tree, and now you besieged me . You’re saying that I destroyed the Glazed Heaven Immortal Fruit . You’re truly powerful . Impressive, very impressive…” said Di Jiu mockingly as he suddenly stretched his hand out, grabbed a Golden Immortal and threw this cultivator by his feet . This Golden Immortal cultivator was the one who had pushed Little Tree a while ago . As soon as Di Jiu grabbed hold of the cultivator, he could not put up a single ounce of resistance .

Earlier on, a crowd had been spectating the auction . This group of people was evidently in cahoots . The reason why Tiny Tree Root had squeezed into the crowd was because it had been deceived .

Deacon Lu’s expression was a little ugly . He stared at the middle-aged man and said, “You dared set a trap for people on the streets of the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City! Follow me to the Law Enforcement Hall . ”

“No need…” said Di Jiu as the Heavenly Aqua Saber on his back suddenly created a curtain of saber shadows that exploded . The middle-aged man was not able to escape, even though he was a late-stage Immortal Lord . Amid this haste, the saber shadows Di Jiu had created enveloped him fully .

A mist of blood was produced as the middle-aged man was killed on the streets by Di Jiu .

“You dare kill on the streets?!” hollered Deacon Lu as he grabbed Di Jiu once again . “In that case, follow me to the Law Enforcement Hall . ”

Di Jiu kicked away the Golden Immortal lying beneath his feet and evaded him .

The Zenith Heaven Immortal did not use much strength, but the Golden Immortal was still pulverized in his hand .

The Zenith Heaven Immortal’s expression became even uglier . He was certain that what had killed the Golden Immortal was not him, but the restrictions created by Di Jiu .

Before this Zenith Heaven Immortal deacon could take any further action, Di Jiu said loudly, “According to the 363rd law of the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City, if anyone harms an innocent cultivator through scrupulous means, anyone can kill the culprit so long as there is sufficient evidence . Not only does Deacon Lu hold absolute power, but he also completely ignored the laws of the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City . He even tried to capture me and bring me to the Law Enforcement Hall, even when I offered up accurate evidence . This is because he knew the people who own this store . I would like to know if freedom still exists in the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City!”

“That’s right, that’s right . Does freedom still exist in the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City? A deacon still dared to publicly violate the laws of the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City . Impressive, impressive…” The queer voice was heard from the crowd again .

This queer voice had helped him two times in a row . Di Jiu really wanted to know who that person was .

Deacon Lu was alarmed as he suddenly remembered this law . There were indeed some laws of the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City that allowed one to kill people without a reason . However, no one had ever dared to kill people in the Immortal City before . Therefore, no one would remember this law after a long time had passed .

Deacon Lu instantly understood what was happening . This fella called Di Jiu was doing this on purpose . He knew that Deacon Lu was not pleased and he had intentionally killed suddenly to enrage him, setting up a trap for him in the process . In his haste, the deacon had fallen for it .

“Who said that there is no freedom in the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City?” asked a strict voice . A blue-robed skinny man landed on the ground out of nowhere .

“Hall Master Zong…” Deacon Lu’s tone became fearful when he saw the slim man in the blue robes .

The blue-robed man completely ignored Deacon Lu and grabbed him as though he was a puppy . Then, he told Di Jiu, “I’ve been made aware of this matter . Your evidence is sufficient . You can handle this as you please . ”

“Thank you, Hall Master Zong . ” Di Jiu hurriedly expressed his gratitude . He was unable to sense Deacon Zong’s cultivation level . The Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City was indeed filled with experts .

Hall Master Zong nodded his head and took a step forward suddenly, disappearing in an instant .

“Was it you who pinned my daughter here?” Deacon Zong had just left when a yellow-robed male cultivator landed in front of Di Jiu and stared at him coldly .
