"They hid a little deep, but their strength was not very strong, so it didn't take much time to deal with them." Zhang Chenran said with a smile.
"That's not the question. You, you killed Cardinal Leng Jue, and even wiped out all the capable men in his faction!" Xiao Ping seemed very excited.
The only one who remained relatively calm was Nan Rongni. Even the little loli with twin ponytails from Qingtian Hunting Station opened her eyes wide.
Even Leng Qing, who was in a very bad state, had his eyes glowing. It was not the despair of being hunted by the cardinal, but the unprecedented hope!
The cardinal fell in Jiuzhou and died at the hands of a young man. If this matter were made public, it would probably cause a huge storm.
...…
After hearing the news, it almost caused a sensation throughout Kyushu.
The members of the Demon City's parliament, the chief judge, the elders of the Magic Association, and other high-level officials all showed up.
The top officials of the Supreme Court in the imperial capital also hurried to the Demon City.
"Chairman, you are so busy, but you still have time to call me?" Zhang Chenran joked after answering the phone.
"I already know about Leng Jue's affairs. In a few days, someone from the Holy Court of Inquisition will come to you and ask about the whole incident. Just answer them in detail."
Shao Zheng's tone was serious, and he didn't mean to joke with him at all.
"The Holy Court? What does it have to do with them?"
Zhang Chenran asked in confusion. He thought that a big shot like Shao Zheng took the time out of his busy schedule to call him to commend him or something, but he didn't expect it was to remind him.
"You killed Leng Jue, so they will naturally come to 'record a confession'. Although they are a foreign power, it won't be long before the Leng Jue incident will become an international sensation."
Shao Zheng paused and continued, "However, in addition to Leng Jue's matter, they will probably ask about other things as well. You should be prepared."
Other things Zhang Chenran frowned slightly: "What do you mean?"
Shao Zheng did not answer his question:
"Just cooperate with them. Of course, those people are used to being overbearing. If they do something excessive, there is no need to be humble."
"I see."
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Chenran sighed helplessly.
He knew from Leng Jue's memory that in addition to Leng Jue, people from the Holy Court had also discovered clues that he had a relationship with Sha Yuan.
In addition to the Holy Court, Chief Hua should also know about this relationship, but he has never investigated it further.
What is coming will eventually come. But he has already figured out how to deal with it.
After beheading the cardinal, it probably won't be long before his name appears in the international arena.
This was undoubtedly the best start for him who had just established a hunter group. With the help of the title of killing Archbishop Leng Jue, he could quickly expand his influence and reputation.
Now, even the Mu family might not dare to provoke him easily, so it would be much easier for him to handle many things.
On the contrary, after knowing his relationship with Mu Tingying, the Mu family would turn around and curry favor with him, taking advantage of his current fame.
The competition for first place among the world's academic institutions does not mean anything. In the eyes of those old wizards, it is just a petty fight among high-level wizards.
But now, he killed Cardinal Leng Jue and destroyed one of the seven major factions of the Black Church. How many forces want to do this?
The Inquisition has been investigating the Black Church for so many years, but the harvest is very little, and now he killed one of the seven leaders of the Black Church!
Not only in the country, but even internationally, he will be known.
And this is exactly the result Zhang Chenran wanted to see.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect you to kill a cardinal. You really bring honor to our ancient capital." An unexpected figure walked over and laughed.
"President, why are you here too?" Zhang Chenran said helplessly.
Today's Demon City Trial Meeting was really lively. Both his acquaintances and high-level people he had never met all showed up.
"I came to Fengcheng for some business, but just as I was about to leave, I heard the news that you killed the cardinal." Han Ji's old face still had a smile on it.
In addition to him, the congressman named Zhu Meng also came. Zhang Chenran remembered that he also participated in the catastrophe of the ancient capital and stood up for the ancient capital.
"Actually, I didn't expect that it would be so easy to kill a cardinal. This is all thanks to the efforts of Judge Leng Qing." Zhang Chenran said truthfully.
From killing the humble craftsman to hunting down the Leng Lord, everything happened too quickly. No one could have imagined that a dignified cardinal would die overnight.
The cardinal's mistake might not be that he appeared in the Demon City, but that he met the wrong person.
"Haha, you can be humble in other matters, but you don't need to be humble in this matter. After all, the Supreme Court has confirmed that it is Leng Jue himself, and those in blue and gray are also members of Leng Jue's faction."
Han Ji said, taking out a badge representing the superior of the Bell Tower Magic Association and handing it to him:
"I can detect that your cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds. This badge will be in your hands sooner or later. I will give it to you in advance now."
Zhang Chenran didn't say much and just accepted it.
After a few pleasantries, the Bell Tower Magic Association came to inform Han Ji, apparently to publicize Zhang Chenran's matter.
Not long after, Mu Yinfeng also called, but Zhang Chenran ignored her and kept her hanging on purpose.
"Xiao Chen, you have done another amazing thing." Jiang Yinyu walked towards him slowly. As the chief judge of the Demon City, she was naturally present.
"Sister Yinyu, you are here too?" Zhang Chenran looked her up and down in the Tribunal uniform and smiled softly.
Seeing his curious look, Jiang Yinyu knew what he was thinking and glared at him secretly.
The cold and beautiful presiding judge behaved like that when facing him in private, and any thought about it could arouse his uncontrollable animal nature.
"Be serious, those present are all senior officials from various forces." Jiang Yinyu reminded him.
Hearing this, Zhang Chenran shrugged helplessly. To be honest, he really didn't want to face those people. It was troublesome just by looking at them.
While the two were chatting and laughing, a man wearing a Magic Association uniform and with sharp eyes slowly walked over.
Seeing this person, Jiang Yinyu took a step back guiltily and distanced herself from Zhang Chenran.
Zhang Chenran glanced at the man's mage badge, which was actually the badge of an association mage of the same level as Han Ji, the president of the Southern Country Magic Association!
The president of the Demon Capital Magic Association is even stronger than Han Ji, the president of the Ancient Capital Magic Association. He is a powerful man who has already entered the semi-forbidden spell level.
The father-in-law has something. Zhang Chenran thought about it and said,
"Father-in-law?"
Jiang Yun looked him up and down with sharp eyes, very satisfied:
"I've heard about you from Yinyu a long time ago. When you and Yinyun participated in the National Government Competition, I also paid attention to you from time to time. I didn't expect that in just two years, you have grown to this point."
