Jing, or rather "Kim," is not an uncommon name.

In Nest City No. 3 alone, there are at least tens of thousands of people named "Jing."

But among the Apprentice Death Gods, this name is rare.

As for those capable of taking on apprentices and teaching them, there is only one person left.

Elrond Gold.

A mysterious Ranger, a man who made a distinguished name for himself in corporate wars but went into hiding for unknown reasons.

It's been over thirty years since his retreat, longer than most Apprentice Death Gods have been alive.

Yet the legends surrounding him still spread within the Death God Realm.

He was free-spirited and never liked adhering to the complex rules within the Death God Organization... this caused conflicts with many High-tier Death Gods.

But Jing never cared because he had a unique strength and a legend that matched his name.

It's said that over thirty years ago, Elrond Gold and several renowned High-tier Death Gods clashed over internal organizational laws, resulting in a war that unfolded in the wilderness.

Apprentice Death Gods can ignore the laws of the real world, but they must abide by organizational rules, or else they will be hunted by High-tier Death Gods.

The Death God Organization is loose, but when it comes to legal statutes, it's extremely rigid...

Through the ages, very few have dared to defy the laws.

At least people like Kao and Kai would never dare to break the rules.

Because they understand the saying "There's always someone better," knowing that no matter how strong someone is, they will encounter opponents they cannot defeat.

This is the fundamental reason why the laws can be maintained.

However, Elrond Gold paid no attention.

When punishment came, he faced it head-on.

He persisted in his path and never compromised.

The conflict known as the "Law Enforcer War" lasted a full six months, devastating the surrounding area for miles and even wiping out wild monsters and grass.

But in the end, Old Jin survived, seemingly unscathed.

As for his opponents, they were left missing limbs, nearly buried in the wilderness.

Since then, Jing's name spread and he was respectfully known as——Lawless Gold.

He proved to the world that he had the right to transcend the rules and the capability to become a law-maker... he just disdained to take on such a position.

Kao and others... or rather most Apprentice Death Gods, admire Gold and even fear him to some extent.

And now, Yun You claimed to be Elrond Gold's student.

Kao was genuinely at a loss.

"Gold's student... you're the apprentice of 'Lawless Gold'?"

He instinctively took a step back, eyes wide, scrutinizing Yun You, the grizzly bear-like strong body trembling slightly at this moment.

"No... that's impossible!"

After staring for a long time, he finally squeezed out these words through clenched teeth.

"Elrond Gold disappeared decades ago; his youngest student is almost forty now. How old are you? It's impossible you are his student!"

He shouted in disbelief: "You must be an impostor... Elrond couldn't have such a young student."

"Elrond..."

Yun You didn't pay attention to Kao's doubts, just quietly muttered the surname.

"So, Old Jin's surname is this, I thought he was an Eastern Hemisphere person too."

Indeed, the young girl always thought Jing's name was similar to hers, an Eastern Hemisphere person.

After all, he had black hair and brown eyes common among Eastern Hemisphere people, and his green military coat resembled the attire of ancient Eastern Hemisphere soldiers.

But now it seemed that was not the case...

Yun You wanted to use the Information Reconnaissance Chip to check the surname, but Kao's endless questioning kept interrupting her.

He couldn't believe, or rather dared not believe, that Yun You was really the disciple of "Unbreakable Gold."

"I advise you not to rush into doubt."

Suddenly, Kai, who had been silent for a long while, spoke softly: "Yang Lie died at the hands of this lady, and you know, he was a Tier Two Mad Dog, and in single combat, he was on par with most of his peers."

"And this lady... judging by her aura, is just an intern."

"An intern who can defeat Yang Lie across two tiers, regardless of the methods and strategies she used, she accomplished it in fact."

"A person capable of such feats; do you think she could be an ordinary Death God without any background?"

"Kao, pretending to be ignorant is not a wise choice."

These words brought the grizzly bear-like man back to reality.

He finally closed his mouth, silently lowering his arrogant head.

Indeed, between different tiers of Apprentice Death Gods, there is a huge disparity in strength.

Any Death God able to fight across realms, even kill an enemy, is the best among the elite.

They couldn't possibly lack a master of high caliber.

"But... but that doesn't prove she's Gold's student!"

After much pondering, Kao stiffened his neck and said: "Maybe she has a good teacher, but it doesn't have to be Gold. Just pretending under Gold's name to intimidate us... without any evidence, we can't just let her go like this, right?"

"Think whatever you want."

Kai shrugged and said casually: "I'm just reminding you. If you really offend Gold and harm his apprentice, with his temperament, not even the Celestial King can save you."

"I've said all I can, anyway, I abstain from any of your decisions now. Do whatever you want, just don't splash blood on me."

Upon hearing this, the others subconsciously retreated half a step, completely unwilling to approach Kao and Yun You.

No choice, the reputation of [Lawless Gold] is too great; in his presence, everyone present feels like ants, better to avoid early rather than late.

Even the slightest possibility, they don't wish to provoke Gold.

"You... you guys!"

Seeing even the purple-robed judge retreat, Kao's eyes widened, breathing heavily in frustration.

He hesitated as well.

The reward offered by Yang Lie's friends is lavish, but one has to be alive to enjoy it.

If he truly offended Gold, forget the reward, even his ancestors' graves might be uprooted!

But speaking again... letting Yun You go like this left him unsatisfied.

"Must... must we really release her on the spot?"

"But if I do, how will I explain to Lord Hika and Lord Shen Ye?"

Kao was in utter dilemma.

"Swish——!"

Then, several figures suddenly flew down from above, landing right in front of the crowd.

They too are dressed in black robes, radiating dangerous aura.

"Is it Old Jin?"

Yun You instinctively assumed one of the tall men to be her master.

After all, only Apprentice Death Gods could have such stealthy speed and dexterity.

But upon closer inspection, she found these unexpected visitors were not Old Jin...

Because the moment Kao saw them, a hint of joy appeared on his face.

"Law Enforcer! You're finally here!"

He excitedly saluted the black-clad figures, then directly pointed at Yun You, and said eagerly: "This is the suspect, please enforce justice and take her into custody!"
