Fang Che did the same.

Dongyun Yu and the other two were also busy interrogating key personnel, especially those with high cultivation levels who could withstand torture.

The Guardian Hall directly took over the government office’s control.

Then began the search for the victims throughout the Donghu State.

For those families whose daughters have gone missing over the years... all were searched and informed according to records.

The girls rescued from dungeons, so-called learning rooms, and brothels were all being helped to find their families.

Some cases were a bit difficult to handle; that is... many women who had been abducted before turned into Madams after they aged and could no longer serve clients.

A significant number of these women shifted from victims to perpetrators.

Their presence was seen in various departments of brothels. Their entire minds and psyches were completely twisted.

Most of these people were detained, and a few who had already ’risen to high positions’ were also being intensively interrogated.

It must be said it was an utter chaos.

As time went by, the entire Donghu State began fermenting over the incident, slowly turning turbulent, like a pot of porridge gradually boiling over as it continued to heat up.

Fang Che.

This name, initially unfamiliar, was previously associated with the mention of the World’s First King, but that heat quickly passed by like a gust of wind.

But now, people in Donghu State heard this name once more.

And hearing it now meant a major upheaval.

Word of mouth spread that everyone knew what Fang Che, Inspector Fang, had done before in Baiyun State...

Now, he had been promoted and transferred to Donghu State.

In less than ten days after arriving in Donghu State, he directly unearthed the demon entrenched there for decades, even centuries.

In other words: when Inspector Fang came to Donghu State, the sky over Donghu State changed!

The demon has been unearthed and is currently being interrogated.

The Guardian Hall, Guardians, and officials at all levels are currently fully cooperating in the interrogation of this major case.

It is said that people involved in the case reach tens of thousands...

Many are high dignitaries, a horrifying sight.

Common folk are waiting silently, excitedly.

As for those whose daughters had gone missing, families began flocking to the government, tears overflowing with hope.

They held onto hope. After so many years of despair, hope finally surged.

Countless families were waiting to take their daughters home.

In two days, more than twenty thousand families came to claim their daughters, and countless more, upon hearing the news, were on their way, still on the journey.

The final count certainly would not be less than a hundred thousand families!

This number weighed heavily like a large lead block on Zhao Shanhe and other Guardians’ hearts.

The atmosphere grew heavier and heavier.

Because... counting even those Madams, there were less than six thousand women in total!

So many missing daughters no longer existed... became buried corpses, some vanished without even bones left behind!

Yet outside, tens of thousands of parents watched with hopeful eyes.

These were just the contactable ones, and how many more were there that couldn’t be contacted? How many are already deceased, with no family left?

This was such a tragic situation.

"How can such demons exist in this world? I’m not talking about the Wei Wo Zheng Sect, but those who are clearly not from the Wei Wo Zheng Sect yet are cooperating with them!"

Zhao Shanhe was too angry to drink or eat.

"What kind of things are these! Such a loss of conscience, such inhumanity..."

"Look at, look at those crowds of parents waiting to take their daughters back... Look at them, how could you have the heart to do this!" 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"How could they have the heart?!"

"I don’t understand these scumbags, damn it!"

Zhao Shanhe and An Ruoxing couldn’t even bring themselves to face those parents waiting to welcome their daughters back.

Because they feared they might break down.

This is under my watch!

To have such things happen, I truly feel like ending my life to apologize to the world!

"We have been so negligent! So negligent! So negligent!"

Zhao Shanhe beat his chest and stamped his feet.

As the interrogation continued, names were confessed one by one.

Numerous Guardians began tracking down and capturing them.

Starting with those of high status, starting with officials.

The Southeast Guardian Headquarters had seven Guardians who once ’participated.’

The Donghu State Guardian Hall had eleven people who also ’participated.’

And the officials at all levels... left one speechless.

There were seven hundred and ninety-six people who have ’participated.’

Among them, one was actually a City Guard!

These were just the results of one day and night of interrogation.

This result made Zhao Shanhe and An Ruoxing feel utterly crushed, both of their faces turning purple.

They were so angry they couldn’t even speak.

Upon learning of this, especially knowing that one who had ’participated’ was a descendant of Zhao Shanhe’s brother-in-law, Zhao Shanhe spewed blood on the spot.

Shamed and furious to the point of being unable to show his face!

"I damn well don’t want to live anymore..."

In a secret conversation, Zhao Shanhe groaned, feeling truly ashamed to face the world.

"It’s not too late to die after the interrogation is over."

Fang Che said coldly, "Your brother-in-law’s family has more than just that. We’re still uncovering what they’ve done under your prestige. Lord Zhao, you should recuse yourself from this matter."

"I can recuse myself, but I need to know everything they’ve done! I must know every single thing!"
