I conquered the cultivation world with scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

Chapter 481 Openly Taking Action

“I, Jiang He, am a piece of trash with a chaotic spiritual root, as you can see.”

Jiang He stood before Rui Yu with neither arrogance nor servility.

This was the first time Ruiyu had encountered a captured cultivator who was so calm and fearless.

Ruiyu didn't care how hard Jiang He cultivated; he only cared about the result.

Jiang He's Chaotic Spiritual Root is genuine, and her abnormal cultivation growth curve is also genuine.

The Surveillance Department has good reason to suspect Jiang He, and it would be reasonable for them to arrest Jiang He now.

If it weren't for the desire not to offend the Fifth Army, Ruiyu would have already taken action.

When Jiang He stepped forward, Zhong Liyu suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

He knew what the Extraordinary Investigation Department had done and had also found many cases of the department forcing confessions, but these things were all done behind the scenes and no one cared.

If Jiang He really gets arrested, then we're in trouble.

Zhong Liyu wanted to say a few words in Jiang He's defense, but Jiang He stepped in front of them first:

"Everything should follow a set procedure. I have the right to suspect that you have falsified data and abused your power for personal gain."

To put it simply, the Surveillance Department arrested me merely to use a plausible pretext to target me.

Jiang He directly exposed Rui Yu's thoughts.

This veil of pretense was lifted, which angered Ruiyu and shocked the other cultivators.

They all thought the same thing. Even if they didn't know why the Surveillance Department was targeting Jiang He, they had seen the loopholes in the data released by the Surveillance Department.

Changsun Ling always thought Zhongli Yu was brave enough, but he didn't expect Jiang He to be so brave as well.

They put things out in the open and discussed them openly, showing no fear of the Bureau of Investigation.

"Just between you and me, are all college students these days like these two? They're both so stubborn. If it were me, I'd be scared to death if I were wrongly accused."

"Hiss, the atmosphere is about to get tense."

"I've been anxious for a long time. What's the difference between Jiang He doing this and directly jumping up and giving the Three Surveillance Departments three duels?"

“Indeed, I feel that Ruiyu has two clear handprints on her face, one from Zhongli Yu and one from Jiang He.”

"The Surveillance Department is really arrogant. They act all high and mighty when they arrest someone. If you didn't know better, you'd think they were the military."

"Our Fifth Army may be a bit weak, and we may seem easy to bully, but they can't just target us all. Last time, the villainous army launched a surprise attack on our starships, and now the Alien Detectives are here too. Do they really think all of us are just corpses?"

"Exactly, can't the people from the Surveillance Department stop being so self-righteous for once? It makes me so angry. They can arrest whoever they want. Why don't they go back home and arrest their own mothers?"

"I don't know what's so special about targeting an ordinary college student. If I were Jiang He, I would shout eight hundred times that I'm being wronged."

Ruiyu's face was droopy, though she was clearly furious inside.

When a hypocrite is exposed, their first reaction is not to express anger or embarrassment, but to continue to greet you with a stiff smile.

It's really disgusting.

Looking at Ruiyu's face, Jiang He's tense nerves relaxed slightly.

She never concealed the fact that she had multiple spiritual roots.

On the contrary, from the very beginning, some people used this to humiliate her.

Waste spiritual root, useless...

These are the words Jiang He has heard the most.

She was also familiar with the Department of Surveillance.

Essentially, the cultivators in the department are just lackeys of the big families, no different from those social scum who only know how to clamor and blame others.

Ruiyu is, and so is Jixu.

Jiang He suddenly realized that her previous vigilance had been futile.

The Yicha Department, especially the cultivators like Ruiyu.

They are completely unreasonable.

Jiang He knew what would happen if she were arrested by the Extraordinary Detectives.

Once you're in there, you'll basically never get out.

They will either be drained of their value and die, or be tortured to death.

Ruiyu possesses a secret technique—soul searching.

If Ruiyu wants to understand a cultivator's memories, he can use this secret method, Soul Search, to search for the cultivator's past memories.

However, for cultivators who bear the secret technique, if their mental strength is not strong enough, they will often be devoured by the secret technique, eventually leading to mental collapse and destruction of their sea of ​​consciousness. In mild cases, this can result in memory confusion and a decline in cultivation; in severe cases, it can lead to the collapse of the mental power system and death from body explosion.

Jiang He would never allow herself to be in a passive position.

Once she enters the Department of Extraordinary Investigations, it becomes very difficult for her to leave.

It's better to confront them directly than to die in the Yicha tribe.

Looking at the faces of the people from the Extraordinary Investigation Department, Jiang He realized that she had overestimated them.

One second Ruiyu was all smiles, the next second her staff expanded, and when she opened her eyes, a transparent barrier appeared, separating Jiang He from Zhongli Yu, Changsun Ling and the others.

Ruiyu was completely fed up with this charade and was determined to force Jiang He to leave today!

When the sudden spell separated Jiang He from the others on the field, Changsun Ling discovered that it wasn't just this barrier; within the space, all spiritual energy had been completely absorbed, leaving not a trace of spiritual energy in the air.

"It's a Soul-Extinguishing Technique!"

"Damn it, they're still pulling these tricks even at the Void Refinement stage."

Changsun Ling cursed loudly.

Ruiyu ignored the cultivators on the other side of the barrier, and gently patted them together with his hands.

Two Nascent Soul stage cultivators behind Ruiyu suddenly attacked Jiang He.

Three sharp feathered arrows flew from the bow in his hand.

The arrow was aimed at Jiang He, as if to impale her firmly on the ground.

"Jiang He!"

"Damn, this is a complete lack of martial ethics."

"Ruiyu, tell your men to put down their bows. This is the Fifth Army! Are you allowed to fight here?"

The spells of the Void Refinement stage are powerful, and Changsun Ling is only at the Nascent Soul stage, so he has no way to break Rui Yu's spells. He looked behind him repeatedly.

After discovering the whereabouts of the Yicha tribe, Changsun Ling reported back to Lan Geng.

The Yicha Division came with great force, clearly heading towards their Fifth Army, and this time they wanted to take Jiang He away again.

He could tell that this group of people really didn't take their Fifth Army seriously.

He openly used force in the Black Nest; he wouldn't believe it if someone said they had no grudge against Jiang He.

Changsun Ling was deeply worried.

Many dual S-rank monsters have appeared in the cave, and the cultivators who can stop Ruiyu are all at the front line.

After speaking with Lan Gengzhong, he desperately hoped that Lan Gengzhong could bring reinforcements.

Otherwise, Jiang He would have been arrested by the Department of Extraordinary Investigations without any explanation, and he would have been too ashamed to face the cultivators from other academies.

The Wanjue Academy and the Fifth Army cooperate frequently. Changsun Ling himself came from the Wanjue Academy, and he couldn't bear to watch Jiang He be taken away.

Three arrows reached Jiang He, who stepped back, using the friction of the ground to pull her legs to the side.

His body was bent at an angle almost level with the ground, and he dodged two of the three arrows.

Another arrow flew past his temple.

Instantly, two drops of blood appeared on the ground.

Jiang He suffered facial abrasions.

She narrowly dodged the arrow and continued to retreat.

Rui Yu hadn't expected Jiang He to be able to dodge the attack from a Nascent Soul cultivator. He lowered his mouth, and the cultivator behind him fired three more arrows.

In addition to the spiritual energy of the Nascent Soul stage, the arrow was also imbued with a trace of spiritual power from the Void Refinement stage.

Ruiyu's magic was attached to the arrow.

This time, three feathered arrows cleaved through the air and pierced towards Jiang He!
