After Fishing For 10 Years, I Became A Saint Without Knowing How To Raise Beasts - Chapter 423

423 Hanjiang Detained?!

Yuchi did not take too much time to study the level two materials. Although there was a lot more information, it was not to the extent that it would cause Yuchi any problems.

He soon gained a better understanding of alchemy and how it worked.

There were still a few hours before the closing time, so Yuchi spent his time in the Alchemist Guild studying.

At 6:00 in the evening, the Alchemist Guild closed, and Yuchi returned the level two materials to the receptionist, having completed reading the last page of the materials.

!!
He also learnt from the receptionist that the Alchemist Guild would open at 6:00 in the morning the next day. After thanking the receptionist, Yuchi left.

He was confident that he would be able to take and pass the second-level alchemist assessment tomorrow.

However, when Yuchi returned to the small house, he was notified by the authorities that Hanjiang had been detained.

When he first heard this, Yuchi was also quite surprised. His disciple was extremely well-behaved, and would not do anything that would warrant being detained.

After asking around, he found out that Hanjiang had completely crippled a few people.

“May I take a look at the surveillance video?”

The person looked at Yuchi coldly, and then replied indifferently, “I don’t have time for that.”

Yuchi did not show any signs of anger, and simply asked again, “Can you tell me what happened?”

“What’s the point of asking me?” the person replied, “Just go over to where she is being detained and find out for yourself!”

It was obvious that Yuchi would not get any further information from this person, so he simply nodded and turned to leave.

Although the person had been rude, Yuchi was here to study alchemy, not start a massacre, so he was not bothered by the person’s attitude.

In addition, Hanjiang would definitely be fine. If Hanjiang was in any actual danger, Yuchi would be able to sense it and head over immediately.

As a Dao heart realm cultivator, she was definitely one of the strongest existences in the Alchemist Valley.

After asking around, Yuchi finally arrived at the place where Hanjiang was being detained, which was a police office.

There, he asked about the situation.

“I’m telling you, this is a very serious matter. Your sister injured and disabled a few people, which is why she captured her and locked her up. Soon, she will be interrogated.”

Yuchi nodded.

“So, why exactly did she injure them?”

The other party frowned.

“You shouldn’t be asking me such questions. Rather, you should be thinking of the compensation that needs to be paid because of her actions.”

Yuchi was a little surprised after hearing this.

Was there such a thing?

So, there was no need to ask why, but rather the whole situation went straight to compensation?

It seemed that investigation was not their core duty, but rather meting out punishments.

Since that was the case, Yuchi changed his tack and asked, “If my sister attacked others to protect herself, shouldn’t that be justified? The ones in the wrong would be those guys instead.”

“Don’t bother asking me such questions.” The other party was getting impatient.

“I won’t beat around the bush. Since you’re in our territory, you will have to abide by our rules.”

He paused, and then continued after some time.

Yuchi kept nodding as the other party spoke. After five minutes, he finally figured out certain things.

Firstly, the offenders were the children of some powerful family.

Secondly, that powerful family had ties to the authorities.

Thirdly, those four had been severely injured, which incited the wrath of the family.

“Your sister has offended people she shouldn’t have, so she is now being held by us. What kind of punishment your sister will receive will depend on your sincerity. The lowest price is one million, and there is no upper limit.”

“The more sincere you are, the higher the chances of your sister being saved.”

Yuchi understood.

“Alright, then,” Yuchi laughed as he stood up from his chair and said, “I’ll handle it. Thank you for your trouble.”

His plan was very simple.

Hanjiang was definitely fine for now, and would not be in any danger.

When the Alchemist Guild opened tomorrow morning, Yuchi would speak to them and see if his status afforded him any privileges or solutions in this regard.

If he remembered correctly, alchemists had some power and status.

However, when he walked out of the door, a group of people with ill intentions appeared in front of him.
