The news that the Yun family was attacked quickly spread across the continent, and various versions spread.
Most people in the spirit world who covet the Yun family know well that there are no powerful spirit beings among the descendants of the Yun family. The reason why they have not been disturbed for so many years is because Yun Han has the ability.
And the Shu Ling Department also played a certain supporting role. Once Yun Han died, how many people were waiting to break into the Yun family to get a piece of the pie.
As a result, he was severely slapped in the face this time. In the legendary version, Yun Han's grandson refined a magic weapon and successfully repelled the invading spirits.
There are only a handful of spiritual beings in the entire Nanzhou who can practice magical weapons. Everyone is surprised that the Yun family, which has always been low-key, turns out to be hiding powerful people. Of course, not many people dare to break into the Yun family easily to provoke them.
The most hyped news in Nanzhou is that Chu Zhou, who ranked first on the Lingxu List, disappeared from Shu Ling at the same time.
No one knows where he is going, and no one knows what happened. Most of them have a wait-and-see attitude, thinking that there is something wrong within the Shuling Office.
Looking at the latest news, Qiu Yuerong threw the newspaper on the table.
A full week has passed since the Yun family's incident. The people who broke their spirits are still in detention, and Chu Zhou's whereabouts are unknown.
Director Qin has not given her a solution until now, and she has a feeling that Director Qin is avoiding her.
Chu Zhou is very famous in Nanzhou and is known as the absolute master in Shu Ling Chu, ranking first in the Lingxu Ranking.
Now that he had just disappeared, there were so many rumors outside. She knew that Director Qin would be very embarrassed if he really had to deal with Chu Zhou.
Thinking of this, she leaned back and looked at the patterns on the ceiling, lost in thought.
"Home team."
There was a knock on the door outside.
Qiu Yuerong sat up straight and said, "Come in."
Yan Ji also came in with the deputy team. He pulled out the chair opposite Qiu Yuerong and sat down.
"Still thinking about Chu Zhou?"
Qiu Yuerong handed over the thing in his hand, "I met Director Qin this morning, and he still looked away from me and still hasn't given me a reasonable solution."
Even Director Qin has kept her and Yan Ji silent until now. Regarding what happened at Yun's house that night, after leaving Yun's house and returning to Shu Ling's office.
Director Qin's fear of causing trouble eliminated the memories of Shafeng and the Blade-killing team members about the arrest of the Poling team members who followed Chu Zhou that night.
Now, she and Yan Ji are the only people in Shulingdi who know what happened that night.
Now the more she thinks about it, the more she feels something is wrong.
"Director Qin said there will be a meeting in ten minutes." Yan Ji put the information aside.
Qiu Yuerong put her hands together to support her chin. This was Director Qin's first meeting after what happened to the Yun family. It seemed that he had a solution to this matter.
"This matter involves too much, and it may not develop in the direction you expected. You'd better control your emotions for a while." Yan Ji reminded.
Not knowing why, Qiu Yuerong and Yan Ji went out to the conference room together, but as soon as they got out of the elevator, they met Xiao Yi with a smile on his face.
Qiu Yuerong's pupils dilated instantly, and before Yan Ji could react, the people around him had already rushed over.
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Yi was pinned to the wall by Qiu Yuerong, and she pressed her elbow against Xiao Yi's neck.
"How dare you show up here!"
She had told Director Qin exactly what happened that night, and Qiu Yuerong had witnessed the collusion with the Ghost Sect.
Now this man can actually show up in the building as if nothing happened.
The people following Xiao Yi wanted to stop him, but were stopped by Yan Ji.
"Team Qiu, I don't know what happened to make you be so rude to me, but the following offenses are not the rules of the Department of Soul Recruitment." Xiao Yi's face showed no panic, and he remained as humble and polite as ever.
"Xiao Yi, do you want me to make your matter known to everyone?" Qiu Yuerong gritted her teeth.
She could clearly see the arrogance that night.
If Director Qin hadn't stopped this matter, only she and Yan Ji would know about it now.
Xiao Yi was not annoyed and only reminded her, "No one will believe what you say. I advise you not to ask for trouble."
It's not for nothing that Xiao Yi has been sitting in the position of Minister of Supervision all these years. He works conscientiously and treats his subordinates with kindness and humility.
He is very popular within the Inspectorate, but the only difference is that he will be tit-for-tat when facing Minister Lin.
If the news of Xiao Yi's collusion with the Ghost Sect spreads, I'm afraid not many people would believe it.
"Xiao Yi!" Qiu Yuerong gritted his teeth and shouted, "Are you sure you want to play this trick with me?"
Yan Ji on the side saw more and more people watching, so he could only step forward to stop Qiu Yuerong and separate the two.
"Go to the meeting first, and we'll talk about it later."
Xiao Yi straightened his clothes and looked like he didn't care about them. "The Qiu team has some misunderstandings about me. Let's all leave."
The onlookers dispersed.
Yan Ji dragged Qiu Yuerong into the conference room. She originally thought that Director Qin had already dealt with Xiao Yi after listening to her words.
But I didn't expect that Xiao Yi could still pass through the entire building with the key.
"After all, he is a high-level person. Even if he needs to be dealt with, he cannot be dealt with casually. Just wait." Yan Ji advised.
Qiu Yuerong is a straight person, she usually looks a little cold, and she leads the team very well, but she really can't be the one in power.
Because in her world, good is good and evil is evil, and the distinction is clear.
"Okay." Qiu Yuerong broke away from Yan Ji's hand and walked forward, "I would like to hear what explanation Director Qin can give me."
The recorder on her collar that night had recorded everything. If evidence was needed, the evidence she had on hand was sufficient.
In the huge conference room, Director Qin was already sitting at the main seat waiting. Below him on the left hand side was Minister Lin. The remaining empty seats were obviously prepared for them.
As soon as Xiao Yi entered the door, he straightened his clothes and sat down. He stared at the person opposite and said, "Lin Yaonan, you should take good care of the people under you."
Minister Lin opposite him only glanced at him lightly and had no intention of saying anything more.
As soon as Qiu Yuerong entered the door, she stood next to Director Lin and looked directly at Director Qin above.
The person waiting at the door saw this and closed the door very wisely.
"Director Qin, I think you should be able to give me an explanation. According to the rules of the Shu Ling Department, once someone who is found to be colluding with the Ghost Sect is found to be immediately removed from all posts and treated as a traitor, why can he still behave well?
Sit across from me!"
Xiao Yi didn't feel nervous at all when he saw her. Instead, he held the cup and took a sip of water.
"Team Qiu, please calm down your mood first." Qin Hui persuaded.
"How do you want me to calm down? There is a traitor sitting across from me, and he was the traitor who once intended to kill me and silence me. You want me to chat and laugh with him?"
Qiu Yuerong simply thinks this is the biggest joke in the world.
When did the Shuling Office degenerate into this?
"As for your accusation, I don't think you have enough evidence to prove that he is a traitor." Director Qin said.
Qiu Yuerong almost thought there was something wrong with her ears.
"Sorry, could you say it again? I didn't hear you clearly."
Qin Hui sat upright and spoke very rationally, "According to your video records, Minister Xiao was just chasing Hong Zhi that night. On the contrary, just when he was about to succeed, you led someone in and caused Hong Zhi's death."
Zhi's escape was nothing out of the ordinary."
Qiu Yuerong has always been clear-headed and rational, so he kept calm, but what he said didn't sound so nice.
"Are you blind? Didn't you see the thing in his hand? He has a bone flute, a bone flute that can summon ostriches!!"
Director Qin ignored her tone and looked at Xiao Yi instead.
"As the Minister of Supervision, I have lived decades longer than you, and my spiritual power has not been weak in these decades. Why can't I raise those three ostriches myself?" Xiao Yi continued.
Lean back on the chair with a happy attitude.
Yan Ji on the side grabbed Qiu Yuerong's wrist and shook his head, signaling her to calm down.
The current situation is clearly not good for them.
Qiu Yuerong also reacted, and could only be patient and keep an attitude as calm as possible.
"You mean, I wronged you?" Qiu Yuerong helped him recall, "You said it yourself that you had colluded with the Ghost Sect, did you forget?"
"You were busy fighting at the time, so it was normal for you to say a few words against your will. Don't take your words seriously when you are angry." Qin Hui had the attitude of a peacemaker.
Xiao Yi smiled all over his face, not caring about Qiu Yuerong's offense at all, "Young people, it's not surprising to make mistakes occasionally, but it is precisely because of such impulse that the success rate of work is high."
Although there were no sharp words or arrogant attitude, she could feel the arrogance in Xiao Yi when she looked at him.
"As for Chu Zhou, I will suspend him for a month, and he will hand in the relevant report soon."
When Qin Hui said these last words, Qiu Yuerong sneered. She suddenly understood what Mu Qian said to her when she came out of Yun's house that day.
If Xiao Yi doesn't deal with it, even Chu Zhou can treat him leniently.
For a moment she didn't know who to laugh at, herself or Qin Hui.
"If Director Qin has this attitude, I will apply for a break during this period, and I will not care about the affairs of the Shu Ling Department."
Qiu Yuerong moved her chair back and stood up. Qin Hui above saw this and spoke.
"You stay here later and we can chat alone."
Qiu Yuerong didn't want to hear his explanation. No matter what the reason was, Xiao Yi and Chu Zhou were no longer qualified to stay at Shu Ling's place.
He couldn't stand it no matter what reason he had.
Then she stood up with a cold snort. When she walked to the door, she took out the whip from her waist and threw it.
The wooden door shattered in an instant, sawdust flew into the air, and Qiuyue Tuotou walked out without looking back.
The flying wood thorns scratched his face. Xiao Yi raised his hand and stroked it. Looking at Minister Lin, his expression became even colder, "You don't care about the people in charge of you."
Minister Lin only glanced at him and said slowly, "You should be lucky that her whip was thrown on the door."
Qiu Yuerong has endured it again and again. According to her previous temper, she would not have given up so easily.
Yan Ji nodded to Director Qin and followed Qiu Yuerong who was going out.
"Don't worry yet. Director Qin may have his own considerations."
Hearing this, Qiu Yuerong sneered, "He just wants to keep Chu Zhou and Xiao Yi. I can see what his intentions are."
People walked straight out of the building at Shuling Department, Qiu Yuerong had no intention of stopping.
Yan Ji knew he couldn't persuade her, so he stood on the steps and watched the people go away.
Jingyu, who was hurriedly following behind, saw this posture and looked at Yan Ji strangely.
"Team Yan, what's going on with our home team?"
How can I go to a nice meeting only to have the person walk away angrily without any prior warning?
"You should keep an eye on the team members for the next two days. She may not be free to come back."
Based on Qiu Yuerong's temperament, if she doesn't get the results she wants, it's impossible for her to come back.
In fact, not only did she want a decision on how to handle Xiao Yi, but even Yan Ji wanted to hear what Director Qin had to say about Xiao Yi.
Above the high-rise building, the cold wind was biting, and the weather in the imperial capital was about to enter winter. The higher you stood, the wind that blew over you touched your face like a knife.
Looking at Qiu Yuerong's retreating figure, the corners of the lips of the two people standing above them slightly curled up.
"She has good abilities, and Shafeng's achievements over the years are also very good. It's a pity that she is single-minded and doesn't know how to turn." Minister Lin glanced at the people below.
The young man standing next to him just stared and did not answer this sentence.
"Now that the thing is in Yun Muqian's hands, even if she attacks the Yun family, her character will not be threatened. We might as well change our thinking."
In short, after what happened last time, it is basically impossible to attack the Yun family again.
The Yun family will also start to be wary, and Yun Zaichun is not easy to offend. How weak is the spiritual power of someone who can refine magic weapons?
"That girl is quite smart." Minister Lin snorted coldly, "I never thought there could be such a person in the Yun family."
Yun Han had hidden his identity for so many years and never let his descendants stand out in the spiritual world. Neither the Yun Jinghang brothers nor their next generation were outstanding spiritual beings.
This also gave those who were targeting the Yun family a common tacit understanding. Once Yun Han died, the Yun family would be unable to resist the intruders.
But I didn't expect that this time, everyone would really make a mistake.
"Let's not talk about Qiu Yuerong for now, Yan Ji also knows these things." The young man reminded.
Minister Lin smiled and shook his head, "Yan Ji is smarter than her. He knows what to do and what not to do, what to say and what not to say."
Therefore, compared to Qiuyue Rong, Yanji is a breakthrough.
"During your three-month suspension, go to Yinjue Court more often and find out what secrets there are within the Seventy-Two Peaks." Minister Lin said.
Chu Zhou glanced at him after hearing this, "You mean, not only Yunhan has a secret, but Fu Yunliu also has something to hide?"
Minister Lin smiled and said, "We can't sit still and wait for death."
Now that the situation is like this, the more people's secrets he can hold in his hands, the greater his chances of winning.
"I understand." Chu Zhou nodded.
At the same time, the communicator in his pocket flashed.
This time Qin Hui did not deal with him, but made a request.
