Mo Hua relayed the information he had gathered to Situ Fang.
Situ Fang, thinking of the destitute orphans and widows, furrowed her brows tightly in anger.
"How outrageous!"
This was exploiting the deceased's wealth, ruining complete households!
The next day, Situ Fang, accompanied by cultivators from the Taoist Court, found Wang Lai and his cronies at the gambling den, arrested them, and took them in for interrogation at the Taoist Court.
She incidentally confiscated the Spirit Stones they had extorted.
Situ Fang returned those Spirit Stones to the families of the mining cultivators, but she had no way to deal with Wang Lai and the others.
Wang Lai and his group had forcefully demanded compensation for the miners and appropriated most of the Spirit Stones for themselves, which was not considered a grave offense.
The judgment from the Taoist Court couldn't be too severe.
Situ Fang wanted to dig up their past misdeeds and convict them on multiple charges.
