Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 115: Chapter 93: Raiding a Household and the New Divine Soul Star Pattern (Request for Subscriptions and Monthly Tickets)

Inside Jinshan County City, a storm was brewing.

The girl who hadn’t come home on time yesterday wasn’t the only one missing.

Parents who didn’t care whether their children were dead or alive were an extreme minority, but yesterday, many people had gone to Zhao Mansion to ask why.

They were pacified by Zhao Fu, the chief steward, given a reason, and sent off cheerily with a catty of meat after all, as Zhao Bo, the philanthropist of Jinshan County City, had quite the reputation.

Under normal circumstances, pacifying others was firmly assured.

However, Xu Jin had slaughtered Zhao Mansion’s chief steward and the grand master Zhao Weiqing last night, plunging Zhao Mansion into chaos without a leader.

Many who had not come yesterday came to Zhao Mansion again today to inquire about their children. Upon hearing about the major incident at Zhao Mansion, and that even Master Zhao was dead, some even thought that Philanthropist Zhao was dead too.

Word spread quickly. Soon, every parent whose child was a weaver was surrounding Zhao Mansion.

Xu’s Dad, Xu Dajiang, was among them, especially anxious.

Yesterday, after Xu Jin had returned to search for his sister Jiang’er without any news until this morning, he hurried to the Taoist Institute to find Xu Jin and was told he was not there. Hearing about the incident at Zhao Mansion, he panicked.

Fortunately, the government’s organizational ability was not weak.

As dawn broke, the county government and the Lord-lieutenant received a Starlight Transmission from Mountain Master Dong Zhao via the Star-picking Order, swiftly surrounding Zhao Mansion and guiding the grieving parents to the docks to wait.

As boatloads of young girls were brought ashore, those anxious parents finally wept with joy.

When Xu Jin carried Jiang’er off the boat, Xu Dajiang was shocked to the core.

He couldn’t even move his legs.

He thought something had happened to Jiang’er.

Only after hearing she was just in deep sleep did he breathe a sigh of relief, sweat pouring off him like syrup.

Xu Jin, holding Jiang’er, led his father directly back to their courtyard at the Taoist Institute.

Behind them, there were sounds of laughter, cries, and even heart-wrenching wails.

After all, more than four hundred bodies had been found on Thousand Leaf Island.

Some of the girls, once awakened, had become unresponsive and foolish...

Here, human joys and sorrows were successively displayed.

In the sky, Mountain Master Dong Zhao, having hurried over by stepping on starlight, watched the scene with a mixture of feelings. This was the best he could do.

”Brother Jin, you’ve finally arrived, the Governor’s military order commands you to assemble at the Martial Arts Hall immediately,” said Qian Xiaohu anxiously waiting at the courtyard gate.

”Military order?”

Xu Jin was puzzled. What kind of military order would Tian Zhang issue at this time?

But military orders were like mountains.

Immediately, Xu Jin placed his sister Jiang’er on his own bed, instructed his father to ensure she was not awakened prematurely and not to worry about her getting hungry, but rather let her sleep until she awoke naturally. He then changed into his Star Patrol Commander uniform and quickly headed to the Martial Arts Hall.

Upon arriving at the Martial Arts Hall, Xu Jin discovered that all the disciples from this season’s Star Pointing, including Yue Daqi, Lu Xianbing, Yu Guan, Ren Xiaoxiang, Luo Geng, and others, were present, but none of the graduates from earlier seasons were there.

Ning Yuchan and Cui Tianqi were also present.

Essentially, all those who had participated in the rescue during the recent major searching demons were there.

Suddenly, a streak of blood red flashed by; it was Governor Tian Zhang arriving.

”Today in Jinshan County City, the wealthy merchant Zhao Bo secretly joined the Baidou Divine Sect, deceitfully involving over 1700 young girls as Star Slaves, resulting in more than two hundred deaths, his crimes grievously deep.

By order, seize his family assets!

All of Zhao Bo’s blood relatives are to be detained immediately, and those who resist shall be executed!

All relatives of the Zhao family are to be detained for interrogation, and those who resist shall be executed!

Every worker at Zhao assets is to be detained for interrogation to ascertain their involvement, and all resistors shall be executed!
