"A thorough investigation?"
Jin Yangzi's voice was cold as ice, scrutinizing Prefect Zhao from head to toe as if pondering where to start dissecting him.
The cultivators from the Inspection Bureau charged with apprehending Evil Gods often witnessed the acts of heretics and demons, which inevitably influenced their disposition.
"I can kill you right now, or I can let you go!"
"My lord, a few days ago, this official visited his mentor in the capital…"
Zhao Tai abruptly changed the subject, daring to show himself because he had something to rely on. "I learned that His Majesty is very dissatisfied with the Immortal Gods of Daheng and intends to restart the 'Imperial Examination' and 'Grand Planning,' with inspections every ten years to purge the governance of the divine!"
"The 'Imperial Examination'!"
Jin Yangzi's eyes narrowed slightly, his icy killing intent instantly dissipating as his voice became as mild as spring breeze turning into rain.
