"We are the Law Enforcement Team and require you to submit to an investigation. If you resist, you will be executed on the spot," a burly youth leading the group said coldly.
"Mid-level Martial Grandmaster?" Zhang Hao's brows furrowed.
Despite this, a Mid-level Martial Grandmaster was not worth his attention. Since cultivating the War God Atlas, his True Qi was extremely condensed, its quality far surpassing that of an ordinary Mid-level Martial Grandmaster. Currently, only a High Stage Martial Overlord could pose a threat to him. However, with all his means unleashed, he wasn't afraid even of a High Stage Martial Overlord.
"Investigate, then investigate. Once you're done, we have things to do!" Zhang Hao said indifferently.
"Impudent! An investigation naturally requires you to return to the Law Enforcement Hall with us. How could it be as easy as you say?" The leading Mid-level Martial Grandmaster snorted coldly.
"If you have evidence, arrest me. If you don't have evidence, don't block my path. Otherwise, I don't care what Law Enforcement Team you are, I'll still fight," Zhang Hao sneered.
"You! How audacious! How dare you speak to someone from the Law Enforcement Team like that!"
The leading Mid-level Martial Grandmaster was angered by Zhang Hao. His expression turned ferocious.
"This Captain suspects this person is related to Wen Tailai's death. Take him down for interrogation..."
As soon as the Captain gave the order, over a dozen Martial Warriors charged forward together. These were all Low Stage Martial Overlords, and Zhang Hao didn't dare to be negligent.
"You guys step back. Leave this group of scum to me."
Zhang Hao's eyes narrowed, and the Blood God Blade was unsheathed.
With a 'Clang!'
"Hundred Blade Slash!"
Zhang Hao instantly unleashed twenty-one slashes. A series of blade waves caused the figures of the dozen or so Low Stage Martial Overlords to momentarily freeze.
"Hundred Blade Slash Twenty-second Slash!"
The power of twenty dragons was extremely terrifying. The blade aura crushed down towards the dozen or so Martial Grandmasters like a great mountain.
It could be said that after cultivating the War God Atlas, Zhang Hao's current cultivation was even more terrifying than before.
Those dozen or so Low Stage Martial Overlords were instantly sent flying by Zhang Hao's slash. They spat out several mouthfuls of blood in mid-air and fell to the ground, unconscious.
If Zhang Hao hadn't held back some power at the end, some of these people would likely have been killed. However, Zhang Hao naturally knew that the Hao Xian Sect was not like the outside world. If he truly killed someone here, even the Grand Elder probably wouldn't be able to protect him.
"Audacious!"
The Mid-level Martial Grandmaster was furious. His longsword was unsheathed, and he lunged at Zhang Hao.
"Sword of Slaughter!"
A fierce sword thrust came towards Zhang Hao, carrying extreme Killing Intent. It made Zhang Hao feel as if he were in a slaughterhouse, his mind shaken by it.
What terrifying Killing Intent.
"Lingbo Micro Step!"
Zhang Hao's figure flickered. He stepped with profound footwork, narrowly avoiding the Mid-level Martial Grandmaster's sword and flashing to another location.
Zhang Hao's hand condensed, and the Seal of Life and Death gathered in his palm. He looked at the Mid-level Martial Grandmaster and snorted coldly, "My Seal of Life and Death hasn't been tested on anyone since I refined it. You are the first today, consider it an honor."
"Less nonsense!" The Mid-level Martial Grandmaster snorted.
"Ultimate Kill Sword of Slaughter!"
This sword from the Mid-level Martial Grandmaster carried even fiercer Killing Intent. Wherever the longsword passed, space layers exploded. The sword's edge pointed directly at Zhang Hao.
"Seal of Life and Death!"
Zhang Hao flipped his hand and smashed out the Seal of Life and Death. The Seal of Life and Death gradually enlarged in the void, slamming down towards the Mid-level Martial Grandmaster.
"Break for me!"
The Mid-level Martial Grandmaster also felt the power of Zhang Hao's Seal of Life and Death and dared not be negligent in the slightest. He thrust his sword towards the Seal of Life and Death.
"Boom!"
The mountain-like Seal of Life and Death fiercely smashed onto the Mid-level Martial Grandmaster's sword body. The Mid-level Martial Grandmaster's longsword was completely shattered, and the powerful Seal of Life and Death violently slammed onto the Mid-level Martial Grandmaster's body.
The Mid-level Martial Grandmaster let out a muffled groan and was sent flying backward. He spat out a mouthful of blood in mid-air and landed on the ground, his aura extremely weak.
"With this little cultivation, you dare to be a Captain of the Law Enforcement Team? If I were you, I would have bought a block of tofu and killed myself by hitting it."
"You..."
Zhang Hao was truly infuriating people without paying for it. The Captain of the Law Enforcement Team immediately fainted from anger after hearing him.
"Audacious!"
Another Elder soared through the air.
It was Shen Kong, an Elder from the Inner Sect Law Enforcement Hall.
High Stage Martial Overlord?
Zhang Hao's brows furrowed. Although High Stage Martial Overlords and Mid-level Martial Grandmasters were both Martial Grandmasters, their control over the energy of heaven and earth was not on the same level. Even Zhang Hao did not dare to underestimate him.
"How audacious! How dare you injure a member of the Law Enforcement Team! Are you trying to rebel?" Shen Kong looked at Zhang Hao, a powerful pressure enveloping him.
Zhang Hao's brows furrowed. He smiled faintly at Shen Kong and said, "Elder? Don't be so quick to put a big hat on my head. This junior is afraid he can't bear it."
"Hmph, will you obediently return to the Law Enforcement Hall with me to receive your punishment, or do you want this Elder to take action personally?" Shen Kong looked down at Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao frowned. Although he wasn't afraid of this so-called Inner Sect Great Elder, he didn't want to fight fiercely in the Hao Xian Sect, as it would definitely not benefit him. However, going to the Law Enforcement Hall felt like walking into a tiger's den.
"Zhang Hao, just go back with him. This old man wants to see how the Law Enforcement Hall handles matters," a cold voice rang out.
A figure descended from the air, it was Tu Zhan.
"Grea... Great Elder, it's you!"
Shen Kong's originally arrogant expression immediately turned somewhat fawning. Although they were both Elders, his status as an Elder of the Law Enforcement Hall was completely incomparable to Tu Zhan's as the Inner Sect Great Elder. In fact, the Law Enforcement Hall was even under Tu Zhan's jurisdiction.
"I heard you want to take him to the Law Enforcement Hall. This old man also wants to see what you intend to do. May I?"
Shen Kong's face instantly turned ashen. Tu Zhan was someone he absolutely could not afford to offend. He quickly said, "Elder Tu, it's completely a misunderstanding, completely a misunderstanding."
"Since it's a misunderstanding, it still needs to be cleared up. This time, is Wen Tailai's death related to you?" Tu Zhan looked at Zhang Hao.
"Wen Gongzi is dead? How come I didn't know?" Zhang Hao looked very surprised.
"Then what were you doing when you went out during this period?" Tu Zhan asked.
Zhang Hao quickly said, "It's quite normal! Because a few of my Registered Disciple friends were doing a mission, I just accompanied them. You can check this in the Mission Hall."
Tu Zhan nodded slightly, looked at Shen Kong of the Law Enforcement Hall, and asked indifferently, "Elder Shen Kong, do you have anything else you need to ask?"
Shen Kong quickly said, "No, nothing."
"Young man, come with me for a moment."
Zhang Hao nodded and said to Liu Jie and the others beside him, "You guys go back first! I'll go with Elder Tu Zhan for a bit."
Liu Jie and the others nodded, turned, and left.
Zhang Hao followed Tu Zhan to his office courtyard.
"Alright, young man, there's no one here. Tell me honestly, you killed Wen Tailai, didn't you?" Tu Zhan looked at Zhang Hao and asked indifferently.
