The black flames appeared.
The temperature in the entire instance dungeon hall rose significantly.
“Mo Xiao! What are you doing!”
“How dare you! Stop!”
“Kid! Are you crazy?!”
Seeing Mo Xiao’s actions, the people present immediately panicked.
They quickly reprimanded him and tried to stop him.
The members of the inspection team might not know the power of Moxiao’s black flames, but Jiang Shan was well aware of its strength.
Even if they had magic resistance, if the instant death effect was triggered, the consequences would be unclear.
“Young man, let’s talk things out! There’s no need to resort to violence!” Jiang Shan directly grabbed Moxiao’s arm and said sternly, “They are all from the Hero Hall of Tianyuan Battlefield. It’s better not to start conflicts.”
Hearing Jiang Shan’s words, Mo Xiao stared at him for a while before deactivating the skill.
After pulling his arm out of Jiang Shan’s grip, he looked at Tu Feiding again and said, “I’ll take responsibility for my own actions. I was the one who killed Tu Feiding.
“If you want to investigate, go ahead and do it thoroughly. If I can kill him once, I can kill him a second time. Let’s see if he can resurrect then.”
Mo Xiao’s tone was icy cold.
“The members of the Hero Hall’s inspection team are here, and you still dare to speak so arrogantly! Aren’t you afraid of being arrested on the spot!”
Tu Feiding roared angrily.
Hearing this, Mo Xiao sneered, “Do as you wish. I have no family or friends, so I’m not afraid of you!”
“If you dare to attack me indiscriminately, then you’ll bear the consequences.”
“Bold! How dare you disrespect the Hero Hall like this! Both of you, what are you waiting for? Arrest him for me!”
Hearing Tu Feiding’s almost explicit order, the two members of the inspection team sighed almost imperceptibly, and then stepped forward, saying, “You are disrespecting the Hero Hall and obstructing official duties. Now…”
“Both of you!”
Just as they were about to take action again, Fang Chang stepped forward, “The child doesn’t know any better. He just changed jobs yesterday and has no idea about the Hero Hall and the inspection team. Besides, he’s still young, so it’s natural for him to act impulsively. Let me apologize on his behalf, and I hope you can forgive him.”

Hearing this, the two stopped their actions immediately. It was evident that if it wasn’t for Tu Feiding’s instigation, they wouldn’t have taken this matter seriously.
Seeing the situation ease up, Fang Chang breathed a sigh of relief and continued, “This place is considered my territory. For my sake, let’s not dwell on this matter.
“Let’s get to the point. Investigate however you need to. If it’s really my student’s fault, I won’t cover for him.”
“Whether you cover for him or not is none of my damn business! Who do you think you are? I’m just here to catch Mo Xiao!” Tu Feiding arrogantly declared.
“Today, not only am I going to take the Orange-tier weapon on him, but I’ll also take his life! My resurrection is not for free! I’m a hero who fought on the battlefield! Why should he be allowed to kill me without rhyme or reason!
“Why are you two still standing here?! Hurry up and arrest him for me! 1 didn’t ask you to investigate! I asked you to avenge me!”
Just as the argument continued, the angry voice of Jiang He suddenly sounded not far away.
“Come over here! If it weren’t for you, we wouldn’t have these troublesome issues!”
“All, Miss Jiang, please be gentle…”
With a cry of pain, Su Wei was thrown in front of everyone by Jiang He.
“Jiang He? What are you doing here? Hurry up and bring your classmates to level up! We have something important to discuss.”
When Jiang Shan saw Jiang He suddenly appear, he quickly stepped forward and berated him.
“Uncle! I’m here for something very important! It concerns Moxiao’s innocence!” Jiang He said, just about to find the members of the inspection team, but when she turned her head, she saw Mo Xiao’s cold expression.
His face immediately lit up, “Mo Xiao! You’re out!”
“Yeah.” Moxiao nodded lightly in response to her words but didn’t say anything. His gaze directly fell on Su Wei.
Seeing this, Jiang He stopped making small talk and immediately kicked Su Wei’s butt. “Quick, confess! Tell us everything you’ve done!”
“Ouch! Stop hitting, I’ll talk, I’ll talk…” Su Wei cried with a mournful face. “I’m sorry, everyone! It’s all my fault. I spent…”
Before Su Wei could finish his sentence, a dazzling lightning bolt suddenly shot out from Tu Feiding’s direction, heading straight for Su Wei.

This sudden scene startled all the big shots, and they were about to intervene, but Mo Xiao beat them to it. He raised his Lord’s Longsword fiercely, and the originally silver-white lightning instantly bounced back.
It knocked Tu Feiding to the ground with only a quarter of his HP left.
Before anyone could say anything, a dark flame suddenly erupted on Tu Feiding.
-3000!
As a large number flashed above Tu Feiding’s head, his last quarter of health was emptied in an instant.
[You have killed Tu Feiding, gaining 1 million gold coins! Obtained skill book ‘Thunder Staff Technique’.]
“!!!”
As Tu Feiding fell to the ground, everyone was stunned. The two members of the inspection team’s expressions instantly became serious.
“You have quite the nerve, daring to kill someone right in front of us!” one of the inspection team members said solemnly.
Hearing this, Mo Xiao calmly put away his equipment and said, “He attacked first, and I only acted to save someone and punish evil. Is that also considered my fault?”
“Even if you don’t make a move, we can still save him! Moreover, what right do you have to punish sinners!”
Hearing this, Mo Xiao also sneered, “Hehe, in other words, since he wants to kill us, we can only run but not counterattack? What kind of logic is that!”
“We’re not saying you can’t retaliate, but you can’t just kill him! What’s the difference between you and him if you do that?”
Mo Xiao glanced at the two and said directly, “I killed to save someone; he killed to erase evidence of his crimes. That’s the biggest difference.”
“Don’t try to argue! Killing someone comes with consequences!”
“Hmph!” Mo Xiao coldly snorted, and his flying sword, longbow, and Necromancer’s Staff appeared simultaneously. “Do you really think I’m afraid of you?!”
Just as the tension escalated, a white light suddenly flashed.
In the next moment, a beautiful woman in a black robe appeared directly in front of Mo Xiao.
“Oh my! Little Mo Xiao, you finally came out of the special space!” As soon as she appeared, the woman looked excitedly at Mo Xiao.
Looking at the woman who suddenly appeared, everyone present was stunned.
“Su… Su Jin’er?”
Moxiao blurted out subconsciously.
“Hehe, we meet again, but… what are you guys doing?”
Su Jin’er then noticed that the atmosphere around her seemed strange. “Huh? This outfit, is it from the Hero Hall’s inspection team?”
“!!!”
As soon as the two members of the inspection team saw Su Jin’er, they immediately lowered their heads and respectfully bowed.
“Inspection Officer 123, greetings to the War General!”
