"Law Enforcer..."

Upon hearing the name Kao mentioned, Yun You narrowed her eyes slightly, carefully observing the group of black-robed Death Gods in front of her.

The so-called Law Enforcers are actually the enforcers within the Death God Organization, specifically tasked with dealing with Death Gods who violate rules. Due to wearing their robes year-round without change, they are stained with too much blackened blood, making their black robes seem even darker and more profound than those of ordinary Death Gods. Therefore, they are also called "Black Robes."

The Black Robes hold an esteemed status, possessing special powers of enforcement and execution, with their hands stained with the blood of countless fellow Death Gods.

No wonder, when these people appeared, Yun You felt a strong killing intent and a bloody smell that couldn't be dispelled no matter what.

They can simply be described as—the Death Gods of Apprentice Death Gods.

No wonder Kao was so confident, even knowing that Yun You definitely had a powerful mentor, yet still insisted on arresting her... It turns out this guy had already called for the Law Enforcers.

"A total of six people."

Yun You counted the number of Black Robes, becoming increasingly shocked as she did.

Each one of these people is unfathomable, revealing neither class nor strength.

But the little girl guessed that any one of these Law Enforcers could likely press everyone present into the ground.

"This time it seems... we've played too big a game."

Yun You rubbed her fingers, feeling somewhat uneasy inside.

Kao and the others had heard about Jin's accomplishments, but she did not....

In her mind, although Old Jin was an expensive mentor and his strength was undeniable, to face so many Law Enforcers at once, even Jin might find it difficult.

Yun You always thinks of situations in the worst possible light.

If even Old Jin's name couldn't intimidate this group, what then? Would she really have to wait for Old Jin to come himself? But if so... wouldn't that lead to an even bigger confrontation?

The little girl bit her lip lightly, constantly imagining scenarios in her mind.

The Black Robes noticed Yun You's little actions but didn't care.

"Is it this girl?"

The leader of the Black Robes glanced at Yun You. He was a middle-aged man in his fifties, with a handlebar mustache, not tall, at most about 1.7 meters, at least two heads shorter than Kao.

But in front of him, Kao was as obedient as a little dog, bowing his head, humbling himself.

"Indeed, Law Enforcer... this child killed Yang Lie."

Kao explained patiently: "According to our investigation, there were no elements of 'duel' in this incident, it was just pure vendetta, which violates the law of Nest City and seriously breaches our organization's regulations."

As he spoke, he felt it wasn't enough and leaned closer to the Black Robe leader, whispering a few words.

Though others couldn't hear what he said, from his mouth's shape, he seemed to be informing them about the "bounty."

In doing so, he might lose most of the bounty rewards, but he also wouldn't have to bear the full risk.

If Yun You's mentor wanted to demand accountability afterward, he would directly shift the blame onto the Law Enforcers.

"The Law Enforcers made me hand her over, how could I not? If the master truly wants revenge for the student, then he'd have to go find that group of Black Robes."

It made sense, leaving no room for criticism.

The Black Robes of the Law Enforcement Team, experienced in battle, clearly saw through Kao's scheme, knowing that this guy was using them as a shield.

But they didn't mind at all, nor did they bother to expose him.

The Black Robes, established for so many years, have seen all sorts of people. Those who dare to break rules are a rare sight, and the vast majority of Apprentice Death Gods wouldn't dare defy them, let alone demand any so-called explanation.

Because they are the embodiment of "law" within the organization.

Casually capturing someone can yield rich rewards, a prospect they certainly wouldn't refuse.

"Number Three, Number Four."

The Black Robe leader beckoned to his two companions and commanded: "You two, seal the scene, copy all the evidence and take it away, then find a time to claim the bounty..."

"Yes."

The two Black Robe members nodded, their tone concise and efficient, but with a suppressed smile on their lips, as if the bounty rewards were already theirs.

"Wait a minute!"

Just as the Black Robes were happily considering how to divide the loot, gray-haired Kai spoke up, inappropriately.

"Although what I'm about to say might offend some people, I must emphasize."

"Everyone..."

Kai pointed at Yun You, half-smiling: "This girl just mentioned that her mentor is named [Jing], you know."

"!!!"

Another silence ensued.

The Black Robes halted, maintaining their placid expressions, their faces still devoid of excessive emotion, but inside, chaos had already erupted.

They, of course, knew who Jin was, after all, the notoriety of Lawless Gold was exceptionally loud.

Soon, murmurs spread among them.

"Jing... is he the one called 'Lawless Gold,' Elrond Gold?"

"It should be him, otherwise that gray-haired girl wouldn't specifically emphasize... there aren't many people in our organization named Jing, apart from him, there's no other Jin who can be a Death God mentor."

"I haven't really heard of him... is this person troublesome?"

"Very troublesome. Thirty years ago, our Law Enforcement Team ran into him over a case, and the organization sent the then strongest ace Black Robe squad—Profound Steel—to wipe out that guy. But in the end, not only did they fail to kill him, they lost several team members..."

"Even 'Kalenina' senior, was defeated by his hand."

"You mean the councilor 'One-Armed Evil Wolf Kalenina'? I remember she seemed to have served in the Law Enforcement Team before, and had an impressive record, but later retired from the front lines and joined the council."

"Yes, guess how Kalenina councilor's arm was broken? It was torn off by Jin in that war!"

"If he is indeed this chick's mentor, then... we really are in trouble."

The Black Robes spoke one after another, their tones conveying doubt, hesitation, shock, but more than anything... a rare fear and indecision.

Jing's name, once again intimidated them.

"What's everyone babbling about?"

Suddenly, the Black Robe leader spoke up.

He glared fiercely at his companions, and said coldly: "I see, you were intimidated by those outdated legends, and have lost all your nerve and skills."

"So what if it's Jin? Would you dare not enforce the law fairly if Jin were standing here?"

"Afraid of an old man who has been silent for decades, as Law Enforcers, is your courage really this small? It truly disappoints me."
