Not long after, many of the farmers finally realized that something was off. There was also a leader among the farmers who was panicking. As the leader of the farmers, he was responsible for stealing the spirit rice.
He immediately found Zhang Tianwu, the captain of the guard, and was willing to work with Zhang Tianwu to atone for his crimes.
When Zhang Tianwu heard that someone was extremely daring and dared to steal the Spirit Rice from a high level Spirit Field, his anger rose to the heavens.
He also knew that after the news that the Young Lord was from a side branch of the clan spread out, there were some people who were restless. However, he never expected that he would be unsettled to such an extent.
Otherwise, there would only be more things to do in the future. They had to find the person within the shortest amount of time possible and make an example out of them!
Thus, Zhang Tianwu comforted the leader of the farmers and went to the Lingyu Palace to ask to see Chen Yi.
Inside the main hall of the Lingyu Palace.
Chen Yi sat at the head of the class, Zhang Tianwu knelt on one knee and started talking about the high level Spirit Field inner spirit rice being stolen.
Zhang Tianwu usually only needed to kneel down in salute; he didn't even need to kneel down.
However, it was a very serious matter now. Although the leader of the farmers could not be blamed, as the captain of the guards, he also had a certain amount of responsibility. So, he lowered his position to one knee, hoping that Chen Yi would punish him a little more lightly.
"Someone stole the Spirit Rice?" Chen Yi's eyes narrowed. He looked at the nervous Zhang Tianwu and waved for him to get up.
Deep down, he wasn't too angry.
Spirit plants that grew in high level Spirit Field were incomparably precious in the eyes of others, but in Chen Yi's heart, they were nothing more than this.
Chen Yi had too many resources at his disposal.
Maybe the top-grade Spirit Field was what Chen Yi valued more.
However, Chen Yi also understood that even if he did not place too much importance on the [High] Spirit Field, he could not show such an attitude. Not only that, he had to punish this thief severely!
Otherwise, how would he manage the other servants?
If a servant who stole the Spirit Rice didn't receive too much punishment and the other servants followed suit, there would be problems with the management of the manor.
At that time, if the manor was not quiet and he caused trouble all day, it would inevitably affect his cultivation.
Thinking about this, Chen Yi said in a deep voice, "I'll leave this matter to you. Catch the thief and deal with him on the spot!"
Zhang Tianwu took a deep breath, "Young master, you said that the appropriate punishment would be..."
Chen Yi's expression was cold: "Just what you think."
Zhang Tianwu was shocked. According to his original plan, it should have been a heavy punishment to get out of the manor. He never thought that Chen Yi would want the thief to die!
As the temporary master of the manor, Chen Yi naturally had the right to do so. Servants did not have much status in the Ancestral Land.
Zhang Tianwu felt sad for that thief. He had to touch the young master's bottom line to take good care of the spiritual plants.
This was great, this young master who looked calm and approachable was also so decisive in killing.
When Housekeeper Deng received the news later, he also joined the group to arrest the thief. Zhang Tianwu welcomed him very much.
There were many martial artists in the manor, and Zhang Tianwu was at the peak of the Eleventh Meridian Circulation Stage. He was the leader of the guards, but there were still many Eleventh Meridian Circulation Stage in the manor.
If the thief was also a Eleventh Meridian Circulation Stage, Zhang Tianwu might not be able to take him down easily, but Housekeeper Deng was the only person in the manor who stepped into the Great Circulation Stage.
The difference between Eleventh Meridian Circulation Stage and the Circulation Stage was extremely huge, almost comparable to the difference between the realms. With Housekeeper Deng helping, even if the thief was an expert in the martial way of Eleventh Meridian Circulation Stage, they could still easily take him down.
However, the development of the matter in the end surprised both Zhang Tianwu and Housekeeper Deng.
According to their thoughts, such a daring thief was definitely an old fox. They didn't expect him to be a newcomer who had just entered the manor for a year. He was still young.
Given his young age, where did he get the guts to do so?
Ma Huang, a mere Minor Circulation, was naturally easily taken down.
The leader said angrily, "Damn brat, it's actually you!"
Ma Huang already knew that he would be caught, and he was a bit worried. However, thinking about what his cousin said, that if he could do something good, he would do something for Young Master Chen Junde, Ma Huang suddenly became arrogant. "It's me who took the Spirit Rice, what's wrong? Isn't it just some Spirit Rice? With a high level Spirit Field producing so much Spirit Rice, what would happen if I took some? "
The leader angrily said, "Ma Huang, you …"
He never thought that Ma Huang would be so cocky after getting caught.
Guard Chief Zhang Tianwu and Housekeeper Deng looked at each other and their faces became a lot more serious.
They were no longer young and had seen a lot. Seeing how arrogant this young man was, they immediately knew that there was someone behind this young man, or else this young man was just a fool.
How could someone who hadn't caused any trouble in a year be a fool?
Chief Guard Zhang Tianwu wanted to probe a little bit, so he said in a deep voice, "As a servant, stealing the spirit rice without the young lord's permission gives the young lord the right to directly kill the thief."
"In the name of the Young Lord, today I will kill you, this thief!"
"What?" You want to kill me? " Ma Huang was shocked, but he immediately thought of the few Treasure Tailsman that his cousin gifted to him a few days ago. His heart became calmer, but in order to please Chen Junde, Ma Huang gritted his teeth and forced himself to say: "You dare!? "My brother is a bodyguard next to young master Chen Junde, and is highly regarded by young master Chen Junde. If you kill me, young master Chen Junde, you will definitely not let you off!"
"Although you are the captain of the guards, you are only a guard. Do you think that your young master will offend young master Chen Junde for you?"
Zhang Tianwu and Housekeeper Deng gasped, the one behind Ma Huang was actually Four-armed Mantis Chen Junde!
This is tricky.
Chen Junde was obviously not someone that the two servants could offend.
Or it could be said that none of them could afford to offend so many Heavenly Pride s in the Peerless Peak.
However, if he allowed Ma Huang to do as he pleased, it would be impossible. That would be offending Chen Yi.
0
The two of them looked at each other and knew that they had to make a decision.
Between Chen Junde and Chen Yizhi, Zhang Tianwu finally chose Chen Yi.
He couldn't afford to offend Young Master Chen Junde, but Young Master Chen Junde was not a qualified person either. He believed that Young Master Chen Yi's future was definitely above Chen Junde's!
Right now, it was also an opportunity to gain Young Lord Chen Yi's trust.
Thinking about this, Zhang Tianwu suddenly attacked. With just Minor Circulation, how could he resist Zhang Tianwu?
However, just when Zhang Tianwu was ready to attack, a dazzling green light suddenly blossomed from Ma Huang's body. The green light formed an inverted bowl, protecting Wu Tie inside it.
Surprisingly, it was a Treasure Tailsman that Cousin Ma Huang gave him.
Immediately after, Ma Huang ripped open the second talisman. This was not Treasure Tailsman, but a communication talisman that was specifically used to notify his cousin.
On the other side, Ma Huang's cousin found out the news immediately.
He immediately informed Chen Junde that Chen Junhao had been here for the past few days and needed to be urged every day. Thus, he was informed of the situation at the same time.
Chen Junhao was overjoyed. "That Ma Huang has already completed his mission. He will die soon. It's time for us to knock on his door."
Chen Junde also smiled: "My trusted aide was killed, I do want to seek justice."
