The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?! Chapter 235: Ingrate
Ruan i, clad in a black robe, had an air of solemnity and ruthlessness.
Outside Wuliuxiang, the atmosphere was already tense and combative, ready to erupt into battle at any mont.
Yet, when Ruan i impassively made her way through the crowd to the center, even the half-demons of Liehai Hall subconsciously lowered their claws.
The bloody battlefield, poised for imminent conflict, experienced a temporary easing of its fraught tension.
Xie Shanhai, the helmsman of Liehai Hall who had been clamoring that "Shen Yan’s arrival would be useless," now looked at Ruan i with cold eyes and an ugly expression.
But as Ruan i approached, even Xie Shanhai managed to squeeze a slight smile onto his fatty face.
"Sister i, didn’t you accompany the Sect Hierarch on his patrol and preaching?"
Ruan i, the helmsman of Enforcent Hall, should have been among those accompanying the Sect Hierarch on his preaching tour.
Yet, here she was in Tianjiao City.
Faced with Xie Shanhai’s smile, Ruan i remained as cold and indifferent as ever.
She gave Xie Shanhai a chilly look, then glanced briefly at Li Muyang.
Finally she said, "Thinking I wasn’t in the city, you two were planning to rebel… weren’t you?"
Ruan i’s tone was stern.
But Li Muyang’s expression remained calm, as if the scolding wasn’t directed at him at all.
Xie Shanhai, with arms spread wide, said, "Sister i, it’s not fun for you to say that. In the Demon Sect and within Tianjiao City, who doesn’t know that our Liehai Hall is fiercely loyal? Every ti there’s a fight, we from Liehai Hall charge to the forefront and retreat last."
"If you’re talking about which branch is the most loyal, our Liehai Hall is second to none."
"Today, the brothers gathered here not to rebel."
"It’s just that they’ve long held grievances against the oppressive behavior of this Li, the Banner Chief."
"Believing he has the young lady’s support, he has rampaged through the city, oppressing the good people, and nurous brothers have fallen into his hands and been tortured by him."
"These brothers fought and died on the battlefield. They barely finished the fight and were supposed to enjoy so well-deserved peace, only to be endlessly troubled and humiliated by this boy."
"Of the four banners of Enforcent Hall, only his Yellow Banner applies punishnts most harshly and uses the most cruel thods."
"The brothers say that it’s not that Enforcent Hall is bad, nor is it the Sect Hierarch or the young lady who are wrong, but that the young lady has been deceived by this Demon Sect scoundrel."
"Today, when we heard that this Demon Sect scoundrel was bullying people in Cri Alley again, the brothers from Liehai Hall rushed over. The brothers from our four great Fragrance Halls and seven branches fought desperately to capture Tianjiao City; why should we let a glory-seeking Demon Sect pup be so arrogant?"
As Xie Shanhai spoke, he grew increasingly indignant, "You didn’t see how pompous this boy was just now; the brothers in Cri Alley hadn’t done anything yet, and he threatened to severely punish them three tis and killed over thirty people without a second thought."
Speaking, he bent down to pick up a bloody severed arm from the ground, his anger palpable, "Look! This arm belongs to a brother from my Liehai Hall!"
"All the corpses here, they’re all my brothers! Their blood is not even cold yet!"
"And the reason they were killed was simply because they trespassed in Cri Alley!"
"The cri deserves at most thirty lashings, yet this Li Muyang killed more than thirty people!"
"Sister i, you’re the helmsman of Enforcent Hall. Tell , can Enforcent Hall just kill people indiscriminately? Are the lives of disciples from our branches and Fragrance Halls so worthless that you in Enforcent Hall can kill us just like that?!"
With fury, Xie Shanhai hurled the bloodied limb in his hand directly at Li Muyang.
Li Muyang, in the crowd, remained expressionless, but Bu Hongsheng and Liu Fu behind him stepped forward at the sa ti, intercepting the arm.
Seeing this, Xie Shanhai scoffed in disdain but paid no further attention to Li Muyang.
He simply turned to Ruan i in front of him, his gaze calm but oppressive.
"Sister i, you owe my brothers an explanation today!"
"Why can Enforcent Hall disciples kill so freely!"
Xie Shanhai’s voice was not loud, but it clearly carried throughout the streets outside Wuliuxiang.
The half-demons of Liehai Hall, crowded outside the Sin Alley, roared angrily one after another.
"Give us a statent! Give us a statent!"
The simultaneous roar of hundreds of half-demons shook the night sky.
Such was their montum that even the dark clouds above seed ready to scatter.
The mbers of Enforcent Hall, standing amidst them, felt as if surrounded by countless demons and evil spirits, their lives hanging by a thread.
After a dozen seconds, the roaring finally ceased.
Ruan i looked indifferently at the dense crowd of half-demons filling the street.
Finally, she turned to Li Muyang, "Why did you kill?"
Ruan i asked with an icy tone.
But Li Muyang’s reaction was calm.
He pointed at the dozen or so half-demons holding hostages in Sin Alley, saying calmly, "They trespassed into Sin Alley, disregarding the laws and openly challenging the rules of our Sect."
"By the laws of our Sect, there’s absolutely no problem with killing them."
Li Muyang succinctly stated his reasons.
The mont his words ended, the air outside Wuliu Alley seed to freeze.
Everyone was stunned, even Xie Shanhai with his chubby face looked at him in astonishnt, as if seeing a ghost.
As the flag-bearer of Enforcent Hall, faced with questioning from his direct superior, Li Muyang responded so forcefully, with not the slightest hint of submission or cowardice.
— Ruan i was not just anyone, she was the closest confidant of Shen Yan, who had helped him rise to power!
Was Li Muyang really defying even Ruan i’s authority?
This situation left the half-demons outside Wuliu Alley exchanging glances of confusion.
It wasn’t until Xie Shanhai’s loud laughter erupted that the silence outside Wuliu Alley was broken.
"Hahaha! What audacity! Hahahahaha..."
"Sister i, it seems you’ve raised an ingrate! He won’t even listen to you; this kid’s arrogance has truly reached the heavens!"
Xie Shanhai laughed wildly, his whole body quivering with fat. His tone was full of scorn, mocking Ruan i without restraint.
However, Ruan i’s response left him stunned.

"... Is there a problem with what Flag-Bearer Li said?" Ruan i asked coldly, "Trespassing into Sin Alley, challenging and defying the laws. As the Sect’s Enforcent Flag-Bearer, he has the right to sentence them to death by a thousand cuts!"
"These are the rules written by the Sect Hierarch personally, if you have objections, you can go and raise them with the Sect Hierarch."
"These thirty-so people, their deaths are just the beginning. Once they are resurrected, I will have them thrown into the dungeon to undergo the punishnt of death by a thousand cuts three tis."
"Not one ti less!"
Ruan i spoke with an icy and resolute tone, leaving no room for negotiation.
The smile that was wildly arrogant on Xie Shanhai’s face completely froze.
His face darkened.
The group of half-demons from Liehai Hall behind him also beca restless.
Under the cover of night in Wuliu Alley, the sinister whispers of Xie Shanhai resonated.
"Sister i, oh Sister i, are you truly going to support this ingrate to the very end..."
Xie Shanhai’s face was sinister, his fat cheeks parting to reveal a gaping maw with sharp fangs, resembling a demon.
And behind him, hundreds of half-demons looked ferocious and nacing, their thousands of blood-red eyes glaring ominously in the darkness.
