System's Super Sect-Chapter 741 - 736, with the waist badge in hand, I have the power!
Smack!
A golden messenger falcon perched steadily on the wooden window. Chen Xie walked over, took off the small tube tied to the falcon.
Under the starlight, Chen Xie carefully examined the small tube to ensure there were no signs of tampering, then crushed it to take out the paper slip inside.
The paper slip read:
Xiahou obtained the Law Enforcement Waist Token from Lian Jin, intending harm against the Immortal Sect!
"Lian Jin’s Law Enforcement Waist Token!"
Chen Xie’s heart tightened immediately.
Lian Jin’s Law Enforcement Waist Token is not something simple.
It was crafted by the forces outside Heaven and Earth Lake, and the holder is the only one with the power of life and death during the centennial event.
In some sense, it represents the attitude of the major forces outside Heaven and Earth Lake and also has the authority to command the strong ones within the Hundred Sects Alliance.
According to the information he received, possessing the Law Enforcement Waist Token allows one to even request assistance from strong forces outside Heaven and Earth Lake during the centennial event.
Of course, whether it’s true or not is unknown.
"Trading with that lunatic Lian Jin, Xiahou, oh Xiahou, what exactly did you sacrifice? No, I must inform the Sect Leader to leave the city before dawn."
During the centennial event, that waist token is definitely no joke.
Its weight at this time is even greater than that of the three Golden Level Chiefs.
After releasing the golden messenger falcon, Chen Xie returned to the window and kissed his woken-up wife before heading towards Wen Ping.
Thump thump thump!
With hurried footsteps, Chen Xie arrived outside Wen Ping’s room.
He Nian was still guarding the door outside the room, showing no intention of sleeping. After Chen Xie’s arrival, He Nian knocked on the door for him and continued to stand like a statue.
"So early?" Wen Ping put away the storage ring that originally belonged to Weisheng Canglan.
Chen Xie hurriedly said, "Sect Leader, my trusted contact within the Hundred Sects Alliance just sent a message. Xiahou from the Xia Family harbors hatred towards you and the Immortal Sect and obtained the Law Enforcement Waist Token from a Silver Level Chief acknowledged by major forces outside Heaven and Earth Lake, which means Xiahou can now act in the city during the centennial event. Since all of Xia Family’s geniuses were killed by Immortal Sect disciples, the first thing Xiahou will do with the waist token is definitely to trouble us."
"Law Enforcement Waist Token?" Wen Ping glanced at He Nian outside the door.
The function of the Law Enforcement Waist Token, He Nian should be quite clear about it.
He Nian turned his head and explained, "The Law Enforcement Waist Token was issued by Prince Longyang because there’s a rule that during the centennial event, all forces cannot have any conflicts, but they are also worried someone might deliberately cause trouble. So the holder of the waist token is the only one allowed to enforce during this time. During this period, the token holder can mobilize any force within Heaven and Earth Lake to eliminate those who break the rules."
After listening, Wen Ping couldn’t help but complain, "Really free, aren’t they?"
If they were so worried, why not send an enforcement team to Heaven and Earth Lake?
Why must there be a waist token, playing new tricks?
He Nian responded, "As far as I know, he’s indeed a very free and eccentric person. The Long Family and He Mansion have always been arch-enemies and couldn’t reconcile even after hundreds of years, yet both families want to support Prince Longyang."
"Blind-hearted ambitions."
As they chatted, Chen Xie stood aside, unsure where to interject.
Why are they chatting now?
Shouldn’t we be thinking of countermeasures?
As the masked man said, the authority of that waist token is astonishingly large.
With such a petty person like Xiahou obtaining it, who knows what he might do?
"Sect Leader—" Chen Xie called out, trying to pull Wen Ping out of the conversation.
However, Wen Ping continued chatting for a moment before responding to Chen Xie.
"Ignore him, there are lots of people who want to trouble us, Xiahou is just another one. Besides, we can’t leave now; there’s one Immortal Sect disciple who hasn’t arrived yet."
"Understood."
Chen Xie didn’t continue further since Wen Ping was determined and unafraid, why should he worry?
Having said that, Chen Xie stepped away intending to leave.
Before leaving, he couldn’t help but glance a few more times at He Nian by the door.
For someone more familiar with the function of the waist token than himself, there are only two possibilities.
Either the intelligence power has infiltrated the top levels of the Hundred Sects Alliance.
Or, he himself is from a major force outside Heaven and Earth Lake.
Chen Xie believed Elder He was more likely the latter.
As Chen Xie reached the door, Wen Ping spoke up, "Close the door, and don’t bother me with unnecessary matters before dawn."
"Understood!"
After closing the door, just as Chen Xie was about to leave, he suddenly felt a hand on his shoulder.
It was just a touch, but Chen Xie’s hair stood on end.
He sensed a terrifying aura.
"Come with me, I need to ask you something." He Nian removed his hand and headed downstairs.
Once He Nian removed his hand, Chen Xie breathed a sigh of relief, feeling much more comfortable. After a few deep breaths, he followed He Nian downstairs.
...
Inside the inn.
After obtaining the waist token, the first thing Xiahou did upon returning to his dwelling was to spread the three reasons he prepared.
The more people knew, the better.
Because if one person says it, it might be false. But if a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand say it, even a lie can become truth.
Then when he takes action, there wouldn’t be any opposing opinions.
Bang!
At this moment, the door of the room was suddenly kicked open.
Just as Xiahou was about to get angry, he saw several powerful elders of the Xia Family walk in.
High-ranking members of the Xia Family followed closely.
"Xiahou, no matter what you plan to do now, you must stop."
"You must stop, do not act rashly."
"We’ve already lost Xia Jin, Xia Ye, those young ones. It’s painful enough, and now you want to act on impulse."
...
Many elders were united in trying to prevent what Xiahou planned to do next.
In their view, they should wait for the centennial event to end. It wouldn’t be too late to strike when the Hundred Sects Alliance deals with the Immortal Sect.
At that time, even if the scattered inn supports the Immortal Sect, it wouldn’t be simple. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
Why act impulsively now?
Why add more damage to the Xia Family?
"Enough!" Xiahou shouted angrily.
Before the many elders continued to speak, Xiahou took out the waist token, "I now have the sole law enforcement right during the centennial event. Not to mention the Immortal Sect, even if the Alliance Leader of the Scattered Inn supports them, as long as I have a reason, I can arrest him, or even kill him!"
Following his words, the room fell silent.
Moments later, a senior elder took it from Xiahou’s hand and passed it around.
"This..."
"How did you get Lian Jin’s Law Enforcement Waist Token?"
"Don’t we have the power to deploy forces from Heaven and Earth Lake and those from beyond?"
Originally they came to reprimand him, but smiles appeared on the faces of many elders.
Xiahou laughed coldly and snatched the waist token back, "At dawn, I will grind every person in the Immortal Sect to dust!"
"Grind to dust!"
"Grind to dust!"
...
Voices rang out in unison.
Finally, it was the Xia Family’s turn to showcase their power.
But at that moment, a low footstep could be heard outside the door.
Slow, and not very firm.
Thump!
Thump!
Thump!
The steps stopped at the doorway.
A cold voice followed with a query.
"The waiter downstairs said you are high-ranking members of the Xia Family. No mistake, right?"
