I want to be innocent, but they don't allow me

Chapter 763 A poor performance.

After the words were spoken, the crowd dispersed consciously.

Duan Zheng's figure flashed and appeared beside Xiao Zhao.

"Little sister, if anyone bullies you, tell me and I will break his arm to vent your anger."

Hearing this, a blush flashed across Xiao Zhao's face, and the cool and aloof demeanor that she had managed to put on disappeared completely.

She tugged at Duan Zheng's sleeve shyly and asked in a low voice,

"Sister, why are you here?"

"What are you talking about? If I don't come, will I let you be bullied?"

Duan Zheng patted the back of Xiao Zhao's hand and looked at the slightly plump middle-aged general.

"Who did you just say you were going to deal with?"

At the same time, a group of Wu clan members drove away the city guards and stood behind Xiao Zhao.

"From the Southern Region?"

"It's the Witch Clan!"

"The Wu people actually came to watch the ceremony. The situation in Jiuzhou is going to change."

"Are those three sisters? They are so pretty. Isn't it said that all the people in the Southern Region have green faces and fangs and are extremely ugly?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Judging from their appearance, we can tell that they are Fairy Bai's sisters. Be careful not to let Fairy Bai hear you."

"White Fairy?"

"You don't even know Fairy Bai, could it be that you don't even know who Fairy Bai's little brother is?"

"Hey... Hey, why are those people carrying bamboo baskets on their backs? What's in them?"

Li Mu listened to the discussion of the crowd and then cast his gaze.

I happened to see Han Ye waving towards me.

However, the person she was greeting could not be Li Mu, but Mo Wuyan who was not far away from him.

"Fatty, I'm asking you a question. Did you just say you wanted to punish my sister?"

Seeing that the middle-aged man remained silent, Duan Zheng had no intention of letting him go.

Now he and Xiao Zhao are in an ambiguous period, this opportunity to stand out cannot be missed.

The middle-aged man frowned. He knew that these people from the Southern Region were invited by the Queen herself to watch the ceremony and were not people he could afford to offend.

After hesitating for a moment, he clasped his fists and saluted,

"Madam, I am only following the law. Since this girl is from the Southern Region, it is not convenient for me to interfere."

The Southern Territory has been autonomous for many years and has always been managed by the Witch Clan. There is obviously nothing wrong with what he said.

But the Witch Clan came this time to change this situation.

If you continue to act so eccentrically, you will attract criticism.

Duan Zheng frowned, becoming increasingly displeased with this middle-aged general.

"Sister, Xiao Zhao did nothing wrong. That man disobeyed military orders and deserved to die. He abused his power."

When Xiao Zhao saw Duan Zheng hesitating, she knew what she was thinking and quickly spoke out to refute her.

Hearing Xiao Zhao's words, Duan Zheng's eyes lit up and she instantly felt confident again. She tilted her head to look at Bai A Niang.

Confirming the encouragement in her eyes, he immediately puffed out his bulging chest and sneered,

"Okay, you fat guy, you're taking advantage of me because I don't know the law, right?"

"Little sister, will it be against the law if I kill him?"

Xiao Zhao pursed his lips and hesitated for a moment before saying,

"Abuse of power shall be punished with fifty strokes of the cane, demotion by two ranks, and confiscation of military pay for three years to observe the effect."

Hearing this, Duan Zheng raised her eyebrows and smiled.

"Okay, bring the stick."

"Little sister, please stay away, or you will get splashed with blood."

"Fifty sticks? Three sticks won't kill him. I wrote the word backwards."

"you!"

The middle-aged officer subconsciously took two steps back and was about to speak when he heard Xiao Zhao say,

"Sister, there are special people who can carry out military caning. You can't do it."

Duan Zheng found a big stick from somewhere, which was at least as thick as an adult man's thigh. Just as she was about to step forward, she paused and looked at Xiao Zhao unhappily.

"So troublesome? It doesn't matter who hits me!"

The middle-aged general breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that these were people he could not afford to offend, and was about to slip away.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Zhao spoke again at this time.

"But His Highness Linglong has the power to appoint someone to execute the sentence. Sister, how about that..."

Upon hearing this, Duan Zheng turned to look at Yin Huanping.

Yin Huanping opened her red lips slightly and said indifferently, "Okay."

When the middle-aged officer heard the word "yes", his legs softened and he knelt down, kowtowed and begged for mercy.

"Your Highness, I admit my guilt. Please forgive me this time."

"Everything is General Pan's idea. I am just following orders, Your Highness."

"Shut up, you."

Without waiting for him to shout again, Duan Zheng could no longer wait and hit him on the lower back with a stick.

He just lay down flat.

"There are two more. You have to hold on."

"This is the Barbarian Witch! He is also at the second level, and he can shatter the blood shield of an external martial artist with one move!"

Apparently someone in the crowd saw through the trick.

I thought she was just a pretty and fierce beautiful woman, but I never expected that her strength was so terrifying.

The surrounding soldiers were also stunned by this. Some of them originally wanted to step forward, but now they all lowered their heads and listened to the screams of the middle-aged general.

"two!"

Duan Zheng raised the big stick and struck it down with one blow, making a whistling sound.

When the stick touched the flesh, everyone could clearly hear the sound of breaking bones.

"what!"

The middle-aged general was so distressed that he lost his voice.

Everyone felt a chill when they heard this, and some people couldn't help but murmur,

"Is it too much? No matter what, it's not enough to beat someone to death."

"Yes, the people of the Southern Region are showing off their power in my Xing Dynasty. Are there still laws and regulations?"

"You can speak louder and stay away from me."

On the side, Li Mu frowned, somewhat confused about how the situation was developing.

He knew that those words were not something Xiao Zhao would say.

Someone must have taught her.

Yin Huanping's reaction also showed that she knew Duan Zheng would come, or even that this was a collusion between the two of them.

The current situation seems to be a way to establish authority, but in the long run, it is not wise.

Li Mu couldn't help but look at Zhang Hanrui.

He didn't believe that Zhang Hanrui was not involved.

"Oh, you're still alive. Your bones are pretty strong."

Duan Zheng raised her eyebrows, looking at the man on the ground who was breathing out more than breathing in, her aura gradually rising.

At the ankle, an unknown flower pattern appears.

The flower has six petals, each of which is oval in shape, narrow in the front and wide in the back. The flower branches wrap around the ankle, looking more like an ankle decoration worn by a woman.

The middle-aged general closed his eyes in anger, as if he had seen his own end.

The people around also held their breath, looking angry but not able to speak out.

Duan Zheng raised the big stick high and let out a light sigh.

The final blow was about to fall.

On the side, Mo Wuyan's eyes were cold, and Chenggui had already fallen into his hands.

Obviously he was planning to rescue people.

Li Mu hesitated for a moment but did not stop him. In his heart, he felt that this man did not deserve the death penalty.

It’s just because Duan Zheng’s teacher is famous, and he is standing up for Xiao Zhao.

If Mo Wuyan rescues the person now, it would be a good thing.

"Although it's clumsy, it's enough."

At this moment, Mu Zhen suddenly smiled and shook his head, then slapped Mo Wuyan on the left shoulder.

Mo Wuyan was about to rush out when he paused and looked at Mu Zhen with a frown.

"Old man Mu, what are you doing!"

"Oops!"

He then waved the rules, obviously intending to use the backup plan that Li Mu had left in the rules.

At the same time, a golden sword energy flew out from the inner field and collided with the big stick in Duan Zheng's hand.

Duan Zheng was shocked by the sword energy and took several steps back before she could stop.

"Who is it? Who is trying to make things difficult for me?"

"Patriarch Duan, please show mercy."
