"Intermediate jailer Ji Xiaoxin greets Lord Prison Code." The person who sought an audience rushed in and kowtowed, extremely respectful.
Although Ye Kong used to be the Prison Code of Iron Prison Mountain, many people didn't recognize him after such a long time, so he focused his attention on Ji Xiaoxin. This was a manservant less than twenty years old. Although his looks were ordinary, his eyes were very lively, showing that he was a quick-witted fellow. Looking at his cultivation, he was just a high-grade golden immortal, and his clothes were ordinary. In short, he was the kind of person who wouldn't fall into a crowd.
Ye Kong asked, "When did you enter Iron Prison Mountain, why haven't I seen you before?"
Ji Xiaoxin knelt and said, "Lord, I am Ji Xiaoxin, I ascended from Planet Baihui 25 years ago. Deputy Prison Code Chen Zhijie also ascended from Planet Baihui, so I was taken care of by him and joined Iron Prison Mountain, worshiping him as my uncle. "
Ye Kong snorted coldly, "When others ascend, they can't leave their planet until they're great principal golden immortals, but you're quite capable, finding your way to Iron Prison Mountain and even finding your uncle. You're not simple!"
Ji Xiaoxin didn't panic and kowtowed, "Lord, you may not know, but I can't tell you the name of the planet I ascended from. Coincidentally, I met Deputy Prison Code Chen Zhijie, and when he heard that I ascended from the same realm as him, he took pity on me and brought me to Iron Prison Mountain. If I had my own ability, I wouldn't have been able to come here. "
This Ji Xiaoxin spoke in a smooth and round manner, but Ye Kong felt that his answers were too smooth. Every sentence was as if he had prepared it beforehand. The so-called no flaw was the biggest flaw. However, Ye Kong didn't care much about this little golden immortal, and asked, "Then why are you here?"
Ji Xiaoxin kowtowed, "I want to report that Chen Zhijie is deranged and sent people to kill high-level jailer Li Dongxu in order to shirk responsibility."
"Oh?" Ye Kong, Wu Yong, and Kuang Peng's eyes lit up. They had to say that Ji Xiaoxin came at the right time! It was like someone delivering chopsticks to him just as he was about to eat, or someone delivering condoms just as he was about to have sex … It was too timely!
However, there was no expression on Ye Kong's face. Instead, he frowned and asked, "Ji Xiaoxin, that Chen Zhijie brought you to the Iron Prison Mountain, helped you cultivate and gave you a bright future, but why did you report him?"
Ji Xiaoxin raised his head and said, "That's right. That Chen Zhijie has indeed treated me well. As a result, I have been tossing and turning in my bed, unable to sleep at night, thinking about it for a long time … But yesterday, I happened to meet Li Dongxu's widow. When I saw her miserable state, I felt some sympathy for her. That Li Dongxu worked hard and did not complain, but in the end, he ended up in such a state. It would have been fine if he had been killed, but it was a pity that he had died without a burial place and was wrongly accused. In the end, he didn't even have a pension. How can this be tolerated? "
Ji Xiaoxin's words made sense. Wu Yong and Kuang Peng nodded to themselves. Even Ye Kong felt that it wasn't a bad idea. When this person saw Li Dongxu and Wu Yong's misfortune, it was possible that he had come to report Chen Zhijie.
However, when Ye Kong looked at Ji Xiaoxin again, he felt that this person didn't seem like an emotional person. This person was definitely very calm and had a purpose in everything he did.
Therefore, Ye Kong slammed the table again and said coldly, "Ji Xiaoxin, you really are kind-hearted. When you saw someone else's widow, you betrayed your uncle whom you are indebted to. This is really unbelievable."
"Sir, please investigate clearly." Ji Xiaoxin hurriedly kowtowed again and said, "Actually, this lowly one does have selfish motives. Although that Chen Zhijie treated me well, he has already fallen from power. This lowly one thought about it, and for the sake of this lowly one's future, I still came to report him. "
Everyone had selfish motives. Now that Ji Xiaoxin had confessed that it was for his own future, it was believable.
Ye Kong nodded and said, "Then tell me, what evidence do you have to report Chen Zhijie? This official will reward based on merit. If the evidence you provide is indeed valid, I won't mistreat you. "
Ji Xiaoxin's face revealed an overjoyed expression. He hurriedly took out an item from his Cosmic Bag and said, "This item is called a Sound Recording Bead. This lowly one bought it at the market for fun. I didn't expect it to be useful. It recorded the recording of Chen Zhijie arranging people to kill Li Dongxu that day."
"Recording?" Ye Kong hurriedly took the Sound Recording Bead and probed it with his immortal essence. Indeed, he heard the sound of Chen Zhijie arranging a few trusted subordinates to rob and kill Li Dongxu. After Ye Kong heard it, he gave it to Wu Yong and Kuang Peng.
Even a calm person like Kuang Peng slapped his thigh after hearing it and said, "That's great. This evidence is too powerful! With this evidence, Chen Zhijie is dead for sure. "
Ye Kong also smiled and nodded.
However, Ji Xiaoxin added, "It's not that easy to kill Chen Zhijie. He still has a final straw to clutch at."
Ye Kong asked curiously, "What other life-saving methods do you have? Tell me."
Ji Xiaoxin said, "According to him, Immortal Lord Hong came to inform him of some things before he ascended. At this time, he suddenly knelt down and cried about his misunderstanding with Lord Ye. He was afraid that you would kill him. Immortal Lord Hong is a soft-hearted person to begin with. At that time, he gave him a jade note which stipulated that Lord Ye cannot sentence him to death for any reason while you are doing the Prison Code. "
"Ah?" Ye Kong and the others were stunned. They didn't expect Chen Zhijie to have such an item. This was a troublesome matter. With Chen Zhijie on him, it was equivalent to a death-exemption medallion.
Wu Yong scratched his head and said, "How about this. Since we can't sentence him to death and we can't let Young Master make a move, then we will go and kill him."
Kuang Peng shook his head. "This is not appropriate. Chen Zhijie was taken down in public. Now that the sentence has not been pronounced, if we kill him, it will affect the reputation of Lord Ye and Iron Prison Mountain. "
Just when everyone was at a loss, Ji Xiaoxin said, "Don't worry, Lords. That Chen Zhijie was really good to me. He was afraid that the jade note would be taken away by others, so he hid it with me and asked me to take it out at the critical moment to save his life. Right now, the jade note is with me. "
It had to be said that this traitor was really powerful. It was a pity that Chen Zhijie couldn't guard against a thief in his own house. In the end, he was actually betrayed by Ji Xiaoxin and suffered a crushing defeat.
Ye Kong put away the jade note and took out the Sound Recording Bead. He once again interrogated Chen Zhijie and played the recording of him instructing his trusted aide to kill Li Dongxu. This time, everyone in Iron Prison Mountain was alarmed. Although everyone had some relationship with Chen Zhijie, after hearing how vicious he was, most of them immediately abandoned him.
However, Chen Zhijie wasn't nervous. He was waiting for Ji Xiaoxin to take out the jade note to save his life. But he looked left and right, but he couldn't see Ji Xiaoxin. This guy was in the backyard of the Punishment Hall, holding the high level prison guard token that Ye Kong had rewarded him.
"Chen Zhijie, don't worry. Die in peace. One day, I will avenge you. "At this time, Ji Xiaoxin's eyes flashed with a hint of a cold smile that had never been seen before.
