Daily Life of a Cultivation Judge - Chapter 902: Terms of the deal (7)

But he was wrong, though he expected it. Deng Wei speaking up, now that was a surprise. Wu Mingli didn’t know of him, other than what he could infer from the little observations he had made, and one of those observations was that he was a powerful figure, and probably as powerful as his master.

He felt no cultivation base whatsoever from him, and it was the same with Lin Guiren, his wife, or the Imperial Household Manager, the list was long. About the only people whose realms he could feel were Duan Hu’s which felt slightly powerful, the other members with complaints whose strengths he could accurately grasp as he was stronger than them, and then there was Yao De’s whose presence was slightly weaker than Hao De’s. Of all the palace realm experts present, he had the weakest presence, while Lin Duyi and Gong Jie had the same amplitude when it came to the pressure he felt from them, but the highest pressure he felt came from Yang Qing, which he wasn’t completely sure was either a result of his cultivation base being that deep and high, or it was a phenomenon born out of some artifact in the courtroom.

But whether it was Lin Guiren or the rest, he couldn’t feel anything from them, and that was the same feeling he got from his master, who was a domain-level expert. Drawing the same sensation, he could only assume he was a domain expert, and from the introductions that happened earlier, he was suspected to be one of the founders of the Red Maple Empire. Wu Mingli despite being a resident of the Empire, for all those years, had never heard of a founder with his name, he only knew of the six families, but seeing the behaviors of Duan Hu and Gong Jie, he was inclined to believe that he could very well be one of the founders.

He felt slightly bitter inside as a thought crossed his mind as his gaze fell on the young founder. With his strength, had he been around, then his father’s fate could have been avoided. Those subsidiaries would not have behaved as they did with someone like him around. However, he quickly pushed those thoughts to the side. What had happened, had happened, and it could not be reversed, things could only move forward.

“I will ensure he fulfills your demand. I can swear on the heavenly dao, if you want,” Deng Wei said with a soft smile.

Wu Mingli slightly stunned by the remark, took a few seconds before he gained clarity.

“No, No, there is no need for that senior. Your word is more than enough..” Wu Mingli hurriedly said.

“Thank you for your trust..”

“Thank you for your accommodation, senior..” Wu Mingli said as he cupped his fist.

“With all parties in agreement, as the mediator and officiator, I will ratify the agreement. In three years Wu Mingli and Shao Ren shall have a life-and-death duel to settle a blood debt owed to the former for the death of his father.

The Order shall provide the time and place.

The second arrangement, Duan Hu, with your agreement to the terms set by Wu Mingli, We shall in the capacity as the overseer of this agreement ensure that you uphold your end. Someone from the Yellow plains county will be in charge of the oversight.

They will review all cases with you, but as to what punishments or assistance you may give based on those cases, it will be up to your discretion to decide on how to deal with it.

We will also be sharing the findings of those investigations and judgments thereof, with Wu Mingli..

Are all parties in agreement with the terms?” asked Yang Qing as his gaze fell on Wu Mingli, his mom, Duan Hu, Deng Wei, and finally the team from the Golden Bamboo Pavilion, with his sight specifically focused on Lin Guiren.

“We agree..” they all unanimously answered.

“Good..” Yang Qing said as he formed a seal with his hands which triggered a large array at the center of the sky-like roof.A golden feather filled with countless ancient runes was produced from that array.

Almost all domain experts present, except for Lei Weiyuan and Hou Dehui, had solemn looks on their faces when that feather appeared. Though peaceful looking, the feather radiated with a transcendent power that made the hearts of those domain experts tremble.

Yang Qing grabbed the feather and used it as quil as he wrote something on an ancient-looking parchment. Golden lights flooded the parchment every time he wrote, and by the time he was done, the parchment radiated with an ethereal golden light, and power that made it feel like it was a heavenly edict.

He then grabbed his medallion, and a gold eagle spirit instantly appeared from it and flew into the scroll prompting it to transform into three golden scrolls, one of those scrolls flew over to Duan Hu, the other to Wu Mingli, while the last one transformed into a golden shooting star and phased through the ceiling of the courtroom, disappearing off into parts unknown.

Lin Guiren’s eyes narrowed as a terrifying ink of suspicion crossed his mind. Cai Hong and the Imperial Household Manager both had the same look on their faces as they looked in the direction the gold light had disappeared.

“With that, all the agreement among all parties can be considered delivered..” Yang Qing paused briefly as turned his head toward Lin Guiren.

“Do not worry, the notice will not interfere with his seclusion or the tribulation in any way. He will not know it is even there until it is right for him to do so, ” said Yang Qing.

“With that, the agreement among the three parties can be considered officially reached and ratified. The enforcement of said agreement now falls on us, which will adhere to as per the terms of the agreement.

Wu Mingli, Madam Zhao Shan, You are free to leave, and thank you for your time and cooperation..” Yang Qing gently said as he cupped his fist.

“Thank you..” Wu Mingli and his mother uniformly said as they both returned the gesture before Xia Ting led them out of the courtroom.
