If it was in the secular world, dark cultivators would be more evil and vicious than the bandits who robbed homes. Compared with bandits, what dark cultivators did was more intolerable. Slaughtering a village and a town was normal for dark cultivator.
At this time, dark cultivators were right under the eyes of the City Lord’s Mansion of Wind Walking City. If the matter was true, then the City Lord’s Mansion would inevitably take the responsibility of oversight.
Paul didn’t talk nonsense with the other party and said, “Come in and have a check. Then you will know whether I am telling the truth or not.”
The soldiers in front of the treasury hesitated. Because if dark cultivators actually existed in Wind Walking City, once it was confirmed, they could not bear the responsibility.
The leading prefectural soldier immediately said, “Spiritualist, can I tell the City Lord about this first?”
“Yes, but hurry up. I don’t want to waste too much time here,” Paul nodded.
With the permission of Mozart, the leading prefectural soldier immediately felt relieved. Ludwig hurriedly took out messenger and briefly described the news here before sending it out.
After a while, he received a reply from the City Lord. Opening it, the leading prefectural soldier immediately knew what to do.
“The City Lord is on his way back to the city. If you are not in a hurry, Spiritualist, the City Lord hopes to see you…”
“No need. What did he say to you just now?” Paul refused directly.
Paul had achieved his goal of coming to Wind Walking City. Ludwig didn’t want to waste any more time.
To know a City Lord?
Ludwig was not interested.
“The City Lord said that I will be in charge of everything, but we must enforce the law impartially.” The leading prefectural soldier answered honestly.
Hearing this, Paul nodded.
The meaning of the City Lord’s words was actually very obvious. The so-called impartial enforcement of the law was that as long as he could confirm that what Paul said was true and that Wind Walking Auction House was indeed related to dark cultivators, then Paul could do whatever he wanted to do.
Wind Walking City was just an inconspicuous city in Lunia. There was no need to offend a disciple of the Heaven’s Edge Sect. In particular, this disciple was already at the third stage of Holy Land Realm. Ludwig could be promoted to Heavenly Spirit Realm in the future and become a Master.
Although it was impossible for Valdis to clearly remember the origins of every single magic weapon in this treasury, when Paul was searching for Valdis’ memories, he knew that there were actually quite a few treasures in this treasury. They were all from Wind Walking City, some of the surrounding towns’ families, or merchant caravans.
As for the means Valdis Goth got them, they were naturally bloodier.
As long as these families told the City Lord’s Mansion about their being kidnapped and left the case record, Paul believed that these prefectural soldiers could find some treasures that should have belonged to those families from the treasury.
After receiving permission from the City Lord, the leading prefectural soldier bowed to Paul and led his men into the treasury.
Soon, these prefectural soldiers found something.
“Isn’t this the lost Purple heart Jade of the Wang family in the city two years ago?”
A prefectural soldier pointed at a heart-shaped purple jade and said, “There are three apertures and sixteen turns hidden in this jade, so I remember it very clearly.”
The leading prefectural soldier immediately stepped forward and looked at it carefully for a moment.
Then he nodded with certainty and said, “Yes, the Harden family asked the City Lord’s Mansion for help at that time. They said that a group of clansmen were killed and the family goods they carried with them were robbed, and one of them was the Purple Heart Jade.”
As soon as the confirmation was confirmed, the prefectural soldiers on the other side also found something. This time, they found several boxes of spirit stones.
On these spirit stones, there were also fingerprints belonging to Lunia. In other words, these spirit stones should have been presented to the royal family of Lunia. Ordinary cultivators couldn’t even touch them.
How could they appear in an auction house?
When he saw these spirit stones, the face of the leading prefectural soldier changed and he muttered, “Is it really the group of lost spirit stones last year…”
At this point, the leading prefectural soldier turned to look at Paul.
There was surprise and doubt in his eyes, but more excitement. Obviously, he had realized it at this moment. The origins of many treasures in the Treasure Vault could be found. And these origins were probably related to a big case!
For cultivators, the most important thing was to be promoted by various natural precious materials and cultivation methods. But for the prefectural soldiers and even the city lords, political achievements were the most important things to be promoted!
The City Lord and the prefectural soldiers were first officials and soldiers, and then cultivators. Compared with cultivators, their living environment was closer to the secular world. Therefore, in the mortal world, the political achievements of officials were the resources they needed to firmly grasp.
‘If these treasures are properly operated…’ That guy, the leader of the prefectural soldiers, didn’t dare to think about it at this moment.
However, his red face, rapid breathing, undulating chest, and shining eyes completely betrayed his heart.
Seeing this, Paul knew that he didn’t need to say anything more.
As long as these guys in Wind Walking Auction House could be confirmed dark cultivators, then if he wanted to leave again, these prefectural soldiers would never stop him. Even these prefectural soldiers hoped that he could leave as soon as possible.
It was best if Paul took the initiative to cut off the relationship with this place, so that the great credit would completely belong to their City Lord’s Mansion. After all, he used to be from the royal family, so Paul had a clear idea of what was going on in the officialdom.
It was good that everyone understood these things. There was no need to say it out loud.
So at this moment, Paul went straight out of the Treasure Vault. The on-site soldiers acted as if no one had seen his action. This also showed their attitude.
Paul was very satisfied with this. Ludwig believed that after he left, the matter of him coming to Wind Walking City today would probably be directly erased as long as the City Lord’s Mansion was not stupid. However, for safety’s sake, Paul paused the moment he stepped out of the door.
“From the voice you shouted before, I guess what you are practicing should be the thunder type cultivation method. The thunder type grass at the bottom of the third row is very beneficial to your cultivation method.”
After that, Paul stepped out of the treasury.
When the leading prefectural soldier first heard Paul’s words, he was still nervous. Ludwig thought that Paul wanted to make a request. But after listening to Paul’s words, he couldn’t help looking at the shelf that Paul said.
A blue but straight grass stem was placed on the jade plate. With just a glance, the leading prefectural soldier could no longer look away. Ludwig understood what Paul meant.
Who else but the few of them knew about the treasures in the Treasure Vault?
Kyle Las must know, but he was already dead. Therefore, if they took something from it and took it for themselves, no one would know.
The leading prefectural soldier had never expected this. But Paul helped him think of it. And Paul reminded him.
Instantly, the leading prefectural soldier was filled with gratitude. It was best that everyone could get benefit.
“Spiritualist, don’t worry. I promise that it will be kept a secret that you come to Wind Walking City this time. No one else will know about it in this life!”
