Before coming here, he had wanted to keep a low profile.
However, after witnessing the Imperial Guards' behavior, he couldn't help but feel disgusted.
Was this part of the trump card of the Empire of Darkness that Elder Jiu said could turn the tide?
If this was really the case, then the Empire of Darkness was already rotten to the core, and it wasn't much different from the Heavenly Law Alliance. If even a person like Long Quan could become a leader, then it could be seen how rotten the Empire of Darkness was.
Su Yu had come here full of expectations, yet he had encountered such a situation. This really disappointed him, and his desire to borrow soldiers suddenly faded.
His intuition told him that the Empire of Darkness wasn't reliable.
However, he didn't know that everyone in the city was staring at him in shock, as if he was a monster.
Long Quan, the Commander of the Imperial Guards, wasn't even qualified to ask about his identity in front of this silver-haired youth?
Just how arrogant and domineering was that sentence of "you, stand aside" in just a few short sentences?
Even Long Quan himself was instantly dumbfounded. That tone made him feel as though he was facing a Sage of the older generation.
However, when he came back to his senses, he was both embarrassed and angry.
"Capture him and interrogate him!" Long Quan tried his best to keep his voice calm as he ordered in a deep voice.
The surrounding Imperial Guards immediately surrounded Su Yu. However, when they looked at Su Yu, their gazes were filled with surprise and fear.
Swoosh!
However, before the Imperial Guards could do anything, a red cloud flew over from the horizon.
When it got closer, it was discovered that it wasn't a red cloud, but three red-robed old men.
"It's the Inspector!" The crowd shouted in awe. They were even more respectful than the Imperial Guards.
The Inspector was like the Empire of Darkness's eyes, and he monitored all of the Empire of Darkness's factions. He was responsible for all crimes and rebellions.
Moreover, he had the absolute right to act first and report later.
When the Seven Lords Palace was closed, the Inspector was the most powerful organization apart from the Seven Lords of Darkness. He was like a knife hanging above the heads of the Empire of Darkness's people.
Anything that violated the Empire of Darkness's laws would be executed by the Inspector.
The people of the Empire of Darkness respected the Inspector far more than the Imperial Guards.
"Damn it! A bunch of meddlesome people!" Long Quan, who had a gloomy look on his face, quickly walked forward and greeted them. "Commander of the Imperial Guards, Long Quan, greets the three Inspectors."
When the three of them landed, their auras were all at the Level One Fairy Realm.
However, it seemed that he had just broken through, and there was still a big gap between him and Bai Chong.
The three inspectors had old-fashioned expressions as they looked around. When their eyes landed on the flying bird carriage that almost cut off the entire road, they immediately frowned. "The dynasty's law states that those below the saint level cannot have more than three mounts."
"You have three, so you should kill two!" The commander in the lead was over eighty years old, but he stood ramrod straight. His eyebrows were snow white, and he gave off a cold feeling.
After he finished speaking, the other two inspectors stepped forward without saying a word. Each of them slapped a demonic beast's head.
Long Quan was shocked. "Are you all crazy? You know that this is the mount that the Third Lord gave you …"
Bang!
Two muffled sounds and two blood-curdling screams rang out. The two phoenix-like mounts were killed on the spot, leaving only one terrified.
"You, how dare you!!" Long Quan glared at them.
Unexpectedly, the white-browed old man said coldly, "We are just enforcing the law!"
Yu Guang glanced at the ferocious beast head carriage and said lightly, "The carriage area is too big, destroy it."
The two inspectors attacked again. With a crashing sound, the carriage was destroyed.
From the beginning to the end, Long Quan did not dare to make a move. This was because he knew very well that once he made a move, he would be committing a great crime of rebelling against the Admiral and the Empire. Even the three Saint Lords behind him would not be able to protect him.
"Do you have any objections to the inspector's punishment?" The white-browed old man looked at Long Quan coldly.
Long Quan clenched his teeth and suppressed his anger. "I have no objections, but this is the mount that the Third Lord gave me …"
"So what if it was given by the Third Lord? This is the mount that the Great Saint Master gave him. If he rides on it, he can't disturb the people in the city! "A cold and dignified voice echoed out from the void.
The white-browed old man and the other two inspectors immediately cupped their fists respectfully and said, "Chief Inspector!"
Swoosh!
A red-robed old man descended from the sky like a phantom. He had a white beard, and he looked spirited.
"It's Chief Inspector Bai!" The crowd started shouting excitedly.
"Even the Chief Inspector is here! How did this happen? Isn't the Chief Inspector cultivating in seclusion to become a Level Two Fairy? Why did he suddenly appear? "
Long Quan's face stiffened, and his eyelids twitched. It wasn't difficult to see the fear in his eyes.
Compared to the other inspectors, the Chief Inspector was much more terrifying.
He had the power to decide the life and death of anyone below the Great Lord level. Even the former Four Great Palace Masters could be executed on the spot by him. This was something that ordinary inspectors couldn't do.
As a commander, Long Quan was within the scope of the Chief Inspector's power.
What was worse was that the Chief Inspector was backed by the Great Lord. Even the Third Lord, who was backing him, had to be wary of him.
His power wasn't much higher than theirs, but his authority was overwhelming.
"Greetings … Greetings, Chief Inspector." Long Quan bowed slightly and cupped his fists.
The old man clasped his hands behind his back and walked over to Long Quan. "Commander Long, it seems like you aren't satisfied with my handling of the matter. Why don't you tell me about it?" He looked at Long Quan calmly.
Long Quan's forehead broke out in a cold sweat when he felt the old man's gaze. His expression became even more respectful. He cupped his fists again and said, "It was a slip of the tongue, and I offended you. I hope you can forgive me."
The Chief Inspector looked away calmly and said, "Alright, this won't happen again."
"Thank you, Sir!" Long Quan heaved a sigh of relief. He felt like his life had been spared, and his heart was still palpitating.
"So, what happened here?" The Chief Inspector asked. His gaze fell on the people who were surrounded by the crowd.
Suddenly, his pupils contracted, and he fixed his gaze on a silver-haired man with a calm expression.
"Sir, that young man has a strange identity. He maliciously slandered the Imperial Guards and misled the crowd. I was just about to arrest him!" Long Quan said righteously.
The Chief Inspector took a deep breath and looked over. "How did he maliciously slander the Imperial Guards?"
Long Quan repeated Su Yu's words. Of course, he embellished the details and cut out the sensitive parts. Finally, he said, "This young man is extremely arrogant. He does not respect the Empire of Darkness at all. In fact, I do not have the right to ask about his identity! If this kind of person is not punished severely, it will damage the reputation of the Empire of Darkness! "
The Chief Inspector listened to him without missing a word. He then turned around and looked into Long Quan's eyes. He said coldly, "I am not sure if the rest of his words are true. However, there is one thing that is true. You do not have the right to ask about his identity!"
Long Quan was stunned. Why did the Chief Inspector say that?
In the entire Zhenlong Continent, besides the King and the Seven Lords Palace, who else could make him look at them this way?
The Ling Jianliu father and daughter pair were also stunned.
When Su Yu had said it himself, they had thought that he was bluffing. However, when it came from the Chief Inspector, the meaning was completely different.
"Alliance Master Su, please forgive me if I have offended you." After coldly glaring at Long Quan, the Commander Admiral came back to his senses. A smile appeared on his face as he quickly stepped forward and bowed respectfully in front of the crowd.
Alliance Master Su?
