“Theft? Stealing?” Luo Yi was taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly tried to explain, “How is that possible, you must have made a mistake?”

The young leader smiled coldly and said in a mocking tone, “I know that you stinking beggars would refuse to admit it until you\'re faced with the grim reality... Shopkeeper Zhou, come over to identify if it were these lower domain people who stole in your shop.”

A middle-aged man in a red silk robe squeezed out from behind the Violet Gold divine guards.

With a fawning smile on his face, he nodded and bowed to the young leader, then turned around. Looking at Ye Qingyu and the others, the expression on his face immediately turned arrogant and disdainful.

The middle-aged man was Shopkeeper Zhou who had just served Ye Qingyu and the others in the thousand-year-old shop [Refine armour].

Shopkeeper Zhou raised his hand to point to Ye Qingyu with a face of indignation, “Reporting to Lord, yes, these are the lowly people that stole the treasure of my shop... Sigh, I am unlucky. At first when they entered the shop, I already felt that they are not any good people. They were wearing rags, but us business people pay particular attention to sincerity and courtesy, I could not kick customers out of the shop. I also very enthusiastically served them. These lowly people were very arrogant and bought a number of things. I thought it was a big business, who knew that, as soon as they left, I noticed that the precious treasure of the store was gone...”

“You...” Luo Yi was furious.

He was after all a young man. Although he had been underestimated in Heaven Wasteland Domain, he was still from an official family and had never encountered such a situation before. He was the first to refute angrily, “This is slander, you just... we didn\'t steal anything at all, and Shopkeeper Zhou you weren\'t like this just now.”

He was a little puzzled and unable to comprehend the situation.

Why would the amiable and kind shopkeeper suddenly turn so harsh and acrimonious. He was clearly making some unfounded attacks on them.

Shopkeeper Zhou, upon hearing this, gave a harsh laugh, and disdainfully remarked, “Just now I thought you were really here to do business and I treated you like humans. Who would have thought that you people are just a group of lowly thieves and stole from my shop, I am blind...”

Luo Yi flushed with anger.

He was fuming with rage and just as he was about to say something more.

Ye Qingyu patted him gently on the shoulder and shook his head, signalling Luo Yi to not speak.

“Shopkeeper Zhou, is it?” Ye Qingyu walked two steps forward, looked him calmly in the eye and asked, “You say we stole the treasure of your store?”

Shopkeeper Zhou was startled for a moment, and then immediately sneered, “Correct, it is your group of lowly people, I can recognize you no matter what you look like.”

Ye Qingyu was not the slightest bit angry. Instead he smiled, “Then I have to ask you, your so-called treasure of the store, what is it?”

“This...” Shopkeeper Zhou stumbled, then turned his head to look at the young leader. They were in a rush before and had not discussed this detail in advance, as a result he was suddenly a little speechless, stuttering, “It\'s... it\'s...”

The young leader sneered, directly answered the question for him, “It is a square seal dug out from the wilderness ruins outside the city, called the [Sky Shade Seal]. There were staffs in the shop who saw with their own eyes that you lower domain people stole it. Shopkeeper Zhou also saw with his own eyes, isn\'t that right?”

“Ah?” Shopkeeper Zhou immediately nodded. “Yes, yes, yes, it is so, Captain Huang is indeed worthy of being the leader of the law enforcement divine guards of Sunrise City. Your eyes are like burning torches, able to discover the minutest detail in everything.”

Ye Qingyu smiled, “Really is a poorly framed trap. If you want to hurt others, then you have to be a little more serious and professional. Haha, I cannot imagine that in Sunrise City, the first city of the nineteen cities of chaos, the great city created by the Storm Martial Emperor, there is such a despicable and shameless thing happening. It really is disappointing.”

“Nonsense!”

“Wildly arrogant.”

The Violet Gold divine guard opened their mouths and snapped like wolves.

“Haha lowly people, still not admitting your mistake? When I take you all back to the [Lightless Dungeon], sooner or later we will find the [Sky Shade Seal] on you. The Sunrise City shall not tolerate scums like you, the law will punish you.” The young leader grinned, motioning with his hand. “Everyone, stop talking rubbish, arrest them all!”

“You guys... really... have gone too far.” Luo Yi fumed, pulling out his weapon to defend himself.

“If they dare to fight back, then kill with lawful authority.” The young leader\'s eyes lit up, then whispered to an aide beside him, “Prepare the Sunrise Order.”

Ye Qingyu knitted his brows in a frown.

This matter was a bit tricky.

Given his strength, although he was unafraid of the Violet Gold divine guards, they were after all in Sunrise City, and if they were really to strike back, the consequences were unthinkable. He could easily escape, but the Heaven Wasteland diplomatic corps would definitely be involved.

The young leader had deliberately made things difficult for him and the others over and over again. There must be someone ordering him to do so.

To really solve this problem, they must first understand who it was that was controlling all this behind the scenes.

Otherwise, everything would be futile.

After a thought, Ye Qingyu already formed a plan in mind.

He shook his head to signal Luo Yi, Wen Wan and the others to not resist, and to watch the situation before they act.

Opposite.

Seeing that Ye Qingyu and others gave up resisting, the young leader\'s lips curved in a contemptuous smile.

“You\'re smart.” He stared at Ye Qingyu, his eyes full of arrogance and provocation.

Ye Qingyu remained indifferent, and did not say anything more.

“Hahahaha... take them away, do not let any one of them go, they are all accomplices.” The young leader laughed, and then loudly issued the command, “And that dirty dog, take it away too,” pointing to sillly dog Little Nine.

But his voice had just faded——

“You are the dirty dog, your whole family are dirty dogs,” silly dog Little Nine cursed, turned into a beam of white light, and disappeared from where he was.

“Ah? This... Captain Huang, that dog... got away.” The Violet Gold divine guard, who was going to arrest Little Nine, was startled. That white light was too fast for him to chase.

“Issue the document, tell the whole city to hunt for him.”

The young leader’s face darkened a little. He had seen the terrifying abilities of the silly dog Little Nine. He knew that dog was not an ordinary creature.

A moment later.

Ye Qingyu and the other people were shackled, and under the escort of the Violet Gold divine guards, were brought toward the [Lightless Dungeon] of Sunrise City.

“Shopkeeper Zhou, see you later.” Ye Qingyu, as he passed shopkeeper Zhou, deliberately gave a smile and said farewell to him.

Shopkeeper Zhou shuddered all over.

For some reason, he suddenly felt a little regretful, a little worried.

From beginning to end, the young man from Heaven Wasteland Domain had shown an almost strange calmness. In particular, the expression in his eyes just now, although he was clearly laughing, for some reason, Shopkeeper Zhou felt that there was a bone-chilling coldness in that pair of bright eyes.

“These lowly people of the lower domain shouldn’t have any important background...” Shopkeeper Zhou was a little apprehensive.

But after a brief thought, shopkeeper Zhou immediately shook his head, thinking to himself, “It should be fine. That Huang Lin is famous for being cunning. He became a little captain of the Violet Gold divine guards through his uncle\'s power. He would usually never provoke or anger anyone, but since he personally came forward to deal with these lowly people, then it should not be a problem."

Watching everyone leave, Shopkeeper Zhou also returned to [Refine Armour].

But little did he know that his perjury would become the nightmare of his life.

When everyone left, calm was finally restored in the street.

From an impressive-looking restaurant, there a man and a woman slowly came out.

“Heehee, Lord Huang, I leave this matter to you. My Master said that, after the matter is completed, we will certainly thank you properly.” The woman\'s action was flirtatious, exhaling in the man\'s ear and whispering with a sweet smile.

She was extremely young, exceptionally beautiful, and was wearing a fiery red dress, which showed off her slim and graceful figure and her ample chest. She was an extraordinarily beautiful woman, with coquettish eyes and an astonishing charm flowing around her. Who else would it be, besides Jiang Xiaohan?

The man on the other hand was dressed in a very ordinary outfit, which covered half of his face, and only revealed his lips that were twisted in an avaricious smile.

He had already quietly put one hand around Jiang Xiaohan’s waist, stroking gently, and whispered with a smile, “Thank you? Haha, okay, but you\'d better thank me on behalf of your master tonight.”

As the man and woman were speaking, they vanished from where they were with a flash.

A corner in the distance.

A white dog\'s head popped out from behind, staring at the direction where the two people disappeared in with a gloating expression.

“Woof, it\'s that little bitch... Ximen Yeshui that pervert seemed to have used this word to describe women. A beauty destroys a country. Ah, master is unlucky. Should I tell him in a moment... Hmm, forget it, let\'s go find Old Fish first.”

The dog muttered to himself and darted along the corner.

……

The [Lightless Dungeon] was the place where heavy offenders were held in Sunrise City.

It was rumoured that the Storm Martial Emperor had once suppressed a chaos demon beast here, and in order to create Sunrise City the Storm Martial Emperor had killed many chaotic space beasts, then opened up a pure land, which was protected by a wind layer. And this underground labyrinth that was once stained with the blood of the chaos demons had later become the place for the Lord of Sunrise City to imprison prisoners.

Ye Qingyu was held in a water dungeon on the ninth floor of the underground.

His entire body was soaked in ice water from the chest.

The ice water was not ordinary water. It contained the intent of extreme ice, but also was faintly flowing with a bizarre divine power. If an ordinary Immortal Step expert were to fall into the dungeon, their yuan qi would be frozen in their body and would be in a state more unbearable than death.

The surrounding light was dim.

On the stone walls of the water dungeon there were ancient formation markings appearing and disappearing, creating an imprisonment formation in the depths of the stone walls, so that the water dungeon was indestructible. Even the black iron railings were engraved with ancient formations, and it would impossible for even Immortal Step experts to break through with force.

Wen Wan, Luo Yi, and the rest were locked in a stone prison opposite.

Their situation was a little better than Ye Qingyu. At least the ground was paved with straw and they did not have to suffer the bitter cold water attack in the water dungeon, which were like thousands of swords piercing through the heart.

“You\'re all going to die.”

The young leader glowered at Ye Qingyu, white teeth like daggers, and a ferocious glint in his eyes, like a hunter ready to torment the prey that had fallen completely into his trap.

He smiled hard, lifting his hand to launch a formation light into the wall of the water dungeon.

Suddenly, the treacherous ice water was bubbling——
