Chapter 179: Chapter 100 The Grand Master of the Blue Sky_3

Mr. Zeng turned around, his back to Chen Shi and Fu Leisheng, bowed to the carriage, and said, "Madam, Second Madam, the two thieves have been captured."

Chen Shi wanted to seize the opportunity to rush forward and strike the man on the back of his head, but Fu Leisheng held him firmly, not allowing him to approach.

At that moment, a middle-aged man stepped down from another carriage, passed through layers of talisman-generated protective light, and approached the carriage of the wife and the second wife, knocking on the window.

In the carriage, a maid opened the window, and the face of the wife came close to the window’s edge.

The middle-aged man raised his hand, whispered a few words into the wife’s ear.

Madam Xia Weiyin showed a look of surprise, her eyes shifting and falling on Chen Shi’s face, and she said to the second wife, Yan Jingshu, "Sister, revenge for Tian Xiu might have to be postponed; the master won’t allow you to take revenge."

Yan Jingshu was both shocked and angry, but she had also heard what the middle-aged man said and was fully aware of the grave implications here, so she could only bow her head and say, "I’ll leave everything to you, sister."

"The master will compensate you."

Xia Weiyin consoled her and said, "Mr. Zeng, you may step back. This Mr. Fu, could you be from Wencai Academy? Your disciple, the one who obtained the first-grade divine fetus in the Literary Examination? I’ve heard about it."

Fu Leisheng’s hands were bloodied, and his eyes nearly spat fire as he fiercely glared at the noblewoman.

Xia Weiyin continued, "However, you’ve targeted the wrong enemy. It wasn’t I nor the second madam who orchestrated the theft of your disciple’s divine fetus. I can take charge of this matter and give you justice. Sister-in-law, come out."

Lady Gu stepped out and knelt on the ground.

Xia Weiyin, with an indifferent voice, commanded, "Lady Gu, tell Mr. Fu the whole story exactly as it happened. Confess truthfully."

Lady Gu’s body trembled as she said, "Yes, madam."

She recounted everything, how she failed to bribe Tian Huaiyi, so she bribed the County Magistrate Zheng Shiyun instead, distracted Zheng Shiyun and the government officials, broke into the county office at night, killed Tian Huaiyi, cracked open Shen Yusheng’s head, and stole the divine fetus. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

Fu Leisheng clenched his fists tightly, his fingernails digging into his wounds as he harshly said, "You are a noblewoman? I don’t believe it! You could kill Huaiyi? You could contend with the Ten Thousand Soul Banner?"

Lady Gu replied, "I have achieved the Nascent Soul, why couldn’t I kill the examiner?"

She knelt on the ground, and a shrine appeared behind her head with the Nascent Soul floating in front of the Divine Embryo.

"As for contending with the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, that is even simpler. The master, upon assuming his post as governor of Xinxiang, brought with him the Earth Book from Xin Xiang Province. The second page of the Earth Book is used to control the Ten Thousand Soul Banner of Xinxiang County. It was originally given to the County Magistrate to limit the power of the County Official."

Lady Gu bowed her head, "I merely secretly tore out the second page of the Earth Book, easily suppressed the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, used it to kill the examiner..."

Fu Leisheng’s hope shattered, and he suddenly burst out laughing, tears falling as he cried, "You are that noblewoman! You are that high-and-mighty noblewoman in Xinxiang County! You’re nothing but a lackey, a running dog of the Li Family! My Huaiyi, my Yusheng, just like that destroyed by an old dog like you!"

He continued his tirade.

After he vented, Madam Xia Weiyin’s demeanor remained gentle as she said, "Lady Gu has committed a grave mistake and must be punished. Lady Gu, considering your service to my Li Family, end your life today. Your family will not be neglected by the Li Family."

Lady Gu’s body trembled, kneeling in gratitude, "Thank you, madam, for your great kindness and mercy!"

She knocked her head repeatedly, bloodying her forehead, and said, "I entrust my family to you, madam!"

She stood up, turned to face Fu Leisheng, and suddenly invoked her Nascent Soul.

The Nascent Soul flew out, but suddenly a bolt of lightning struck from the sky, turning her instantly to ash.

Lady Gu’s body swayed and fell to the ground, her soul shattered, leaving no breath of life.

Xia Weiyin sighed and said, "It’s a fault of her own making. Mr. Fu, was my handling of this matter just?"

Seeing his enemy punished, Fu Leisheng couldn’t hold back his tears, falling to his knees, choking out, "Madam, your decision was just. Huaiyi, Yusheng, I’ve avenged you!"

Xia Weiyin gave him a deep look and said, "Mr. Fu, you have tested the law with your body, killing dozens from my Li Family, although out of righteous indignation to avenge your disciple. Nonetheless, you’ve broken the king’s law, taking dozens of lives. The life of this young brother by your side, I can spare, but you must pay the price."

She paused, then continued, "Rest assured, after your death, this matter will be wiped clean, and your family will be safe and sound. Mr. Fu, I’ve given you justice, now you owe my Li Family justice."

Fu Leisheng bowed deeply to the carriage, loudly proclaiming, "Madam is truly a noble and fair judge! I have committed many wrongs; I will now pay with my life!"

He raised his hand to smash his own head, but suddenly Chen Shi grabbed his hand.

"Chen Shi, what are you doing?"

Fu Leisheng, furious, lowered his voice, "With my death, you will be safe! Let go!"

Chen Shi held tightly to his hand, staring at Madam Xia Weiyin, and solemnly said, "Don’t die just yet. This matter, judged wrongly!"
