My Wife is Unbeatable in the Whole World, Touch Me If You Dare!-Chapter 125 - 95 Kill!

But none of that mattered anymore.

He had originally thought that out of the eight assassins, he could at least capture one or two.

That way, once they were sentenced, the lifespan he had lost would be added back.

Unexpectedly, only one of the eight assassins was left, and even then, he died by Li Nuo’s hand.

Legalism places extreme importance on procedure.

After a case is filed and a sentence is pronounced, even if he were to commit suicide, it would not affect the addition to his lifespan.

But if he killed someone before filing a case and without sentencing, would the Law Code recognize it?

Li Nuo’s gaze looked forward; the "Law Code" quietly hovered in front of his eyes.

His eyes were filled with anticipation.

But the two lines of text on the cover completely chilled his heart.

"Name: Li Nuo."

"Lifespan: one day."

Seeing the number on the last line, his heart sank completely.

It hadn’t increased after all.

An assassin from the Fourth Realm could have added a hundred days to his lifespan.

Such a waste, Li Nuo felt unbearable pain.

But he didn’t even have the time to feel that pain now.

His lifespan would refresh again at dawn today.

If he couldn’t extend his life during this period...

At midnight, he would meet his demise.

Li Nuo turned his head to look outside; it was already dark, and his heart sank as he asked Housekeeper Wu, "What time is it now?"

Housekeeper Wu replied, "Just past 7 p.m."

7 p.m. is between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m., which means it was now after 7 p.m., and there were less than five hours until midnight.

There was not much time left for him.

Filling in the proper procedures now might still be useful.

With a sudden surge of strength, Li Nuo struggled out of bed. Seeing this, Housekeeper Wu hurried to support him and asked, "Young Master, where are you going? Your body is very weak, you should lie down and rest..."

Being weak was nothing, his life was on the line.

He said decisively, "Prepare the carriage, I’m going out!"

In front of the Song Residence.

Housekeeper Wu helped Li Nuo into the carriage and asked helplessly, "Young Master, where to?"

Li Nuo replied, "County Magistrate’s Office!"

The assassin was already dead, and his lifespan had not increased. Without guessing, he knew it was a procedural issue.

The question is, would getting a judgment issued now do any good?

Although he had just been barred by the court from judging cases, he couldn’t worry about that when his life was at stake.

Just as the carriage was about to depart, Song Jiaren got into the carriage. She didn’t say anything, just sat silently opposite Li Nuo.

There were a total of eight assassins in this attempt on Li Nuo’s life.

Of the eight assassins, only one remained.

That person was killed by a powerful burst of True Qi, his internal organs shattered, dead in an alley.

According to Housekeeper Wu, a female vigilante passing by had saved him.

Li Nuo knew nothing of this female vigilante; the assassin died by his hand, and before he passed out, he hadn’t seen any vigilante.

But the vigilante wasn’t important now.

It was his life.

He lifted the curtain of the carriage and urged, "Quicker, we’re running out of time..."

Housekeeper Wu didn’t know what the rush was but still increased the frequency of his whip.

Soon, the carriage stopped at the entrance to Chang’an County Government.

It was already after office hours. Housekeeper Wu banged hard on the government office gate, and a Government Official inside complained impatiently, "What’s with the noise? Can’t you see what time it is? If you have business, come back tomorrow!"

Even though he didn’t understand what the young master was so anxious about, he could see that he was indeed very anxious.

Housekeeper Wu had never seen the young master in such a rush before.

He leapt over the wall and into the government office and, while the Government Official was still stunned, opened the gate from the inside.

Before long.

At another residence in Chang’an.

Li Yuan was puzzled why Zhao Ji, who had gone to Jade Sound Pavilion, hadn’t returned all day.

Just as he was about to send someone to investigate, a person rushed in and said, "Young Master, you are truly divine in your calculations; that Li Nuo has gone to the Chang’an County Government again!"

Li Yuan was surprised at first, but then a pleased expression spread across his face.

Good, when he caught him, it was all about Daxia Law, as if he were so noble.

And when he himself repeatedly defied the court’s decree, why didn’t he mention Daxia Law then?

Hypocrisy!

Such hypocrisy is nauseating!

He no longer cared about Zhao Ji’s matter and immediately ordered, "Fetch Chief Liu, we’re going to the Chang’an County Government!"

Chief Liu was an official from the Ministry of Personnel; if Li Nuo and the officials of the Chang’an County Government were caught defying the court’s decree three times by an official of the Ministry of Personnel, he’d see what they would have to say!

At the Chang’an County Government.

Using the resources of the Spiegel Bureau, Housekeeper Wu found that those eight assassins, known as the "Heavenly Mountain Seven Killers," were famous assassins in the martial world, ranking high on the assassin list.

Though they were called the Heavenly Mountain Seven Killers, there were actually eight of them; all eight were Fourth Realm martial artists with countless lives on their hands, even known for teaming up to kill a Grandmaster.

These eight, without exception, deserved death.

The one killed by Li Nuo was named Huang Tao, the leader of the Heavenly Mountain Seven Killers.

The strongest amongst the eight, he ironically died in this assassination attempt.

Inside the County Magistrate’s Office.

While Housekeeper Wu was still marveling at the female vigilante’s strength, Li Nuo was already drafting the judgment.

With only a few hours of life left, he felt extremely tense, his hand holding the pen trembling slightly.

After a deep breath, he wrote the last line, then stamped the document with the seal of Pei Zhe.

This judgment was preliminarily complete.

It just needed to be reviewed and passed by the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Justice’s Court to become official.

In the past, once it reached this stage, his lifespan would increase according to the judgment.

Gazing at the Law Code somewhat apprehensively, Li Nuo saw.

One day.

Still one day.

Even in his heart, Li Nuo almost begged the Law Code, after being so familiar with each other, couldn’t it make an exception?
