Chapter 122: Balance of Worlds
” Hehe, Have you finally stumped?” Jia Hao’s voice made Sun Jing tremble as he fell to his knees.
Sure, Jia Hao can’t use an overwhelming amount of desire qi to hypnotize Sun Jing and let him admit his guilt. However, he can be overwhelmed with various questions, with each question laced with a bit amount of fear and guilt from desire qi.
Like moisture slowly condenses into drops and drops condense into torrents, Jia Hao’s method slowly sowed seeds of doubts and fear in Sun Jing’s mind.
And now, it completely crumbled.
” Hehe, Cui Bang, Sun Jing, I believe you can’t sleep at night, do you?” Jia Hao grinned deviously. ” You look so pale and withered. Perhaps Mr. Chu is visiting you every night.”
” Repent and you might be able to leave. Otherwise, I know quite a lot of cases where hungry ghosts sapped the energy of humans…”
” Sun Jing! Confess your sin! The heaven and netherworld is watching your sin!”
” I DID IT!”
With a plop, Sun Jing fell to his knees, trembling violently. ” It was me…I killed them.”
” They… Damn it! They are already so old! Why can’t they part from their money?”
” I…I only wanted to borrow twenty thousand taels of gold. How could they refuse?”
” So…I…I did it.”
The crowd turned silent, the official’s eyes turned wide, and even Cai Yunhai couldn’t help but clench his fist from excitement.
” Well, Everyone heard the testimony. Therefore, I have nothing else to say.” Jia Hao turned around and walked out from the hall.
‘ As a wise person said, cool guys don’t look back at the explosion.’
‘ Don’t look back! Don’t look back!’
” Goodness! What have I witnessed?”
” He…He made them confess so easily!”
” What a cunning young man. Is there someone like him among the officials?”
” Hiss! You don’t know? He is the son in law of Magistrate Cai!”
” What? Real?”
” Ahem!”
Cai Yunhai coughed a bit, making everyone silent. ” Sun Jing, you defied filial piety and killed two human beings out of anger and jealousy. You shall be executed by beheading.”
” Meanwhile, Cui Bang, you helped Sun Jing in murder and even deliberately tried to help him, hindering the work of justice.”
” Therefore, Your arm shall severed and you shall be sent to a thousand miles in the southern direction.”
” Long live, Magistrate Cai!”
” Long Live, His Majesty Emperor!”
As Jia Hao returned to his room, he couldn’t help but ponder various things.
‘ In Azure Sea Star, the spiritual and mental strength of people are very less. Therefore, the Six Desires Myriad Thought Art works very well.’
‘ However, in Yunlan Continent, even normal people’s spirituality is higher. So, completely mind controlling them requires quite a lot amount of desire qi.’
Out of curiosity, he looked into the Pot of Miracles, seeing the Four Directional Karmic Weight.
It was like a standing traditional weight, but like two of them merged into one. In the horizontal and vertical directions, there are a total of four weight plates.
In two plates, there were white feathers. On the opposite of one feather, was Jia Hao’s figurine, with him wearing modern clothes. And on opposite of another feather, was also Jia Hao’s figurine.
But here, he wore ancient clothes, like he is wearing right now.
‘ The feathers represent the world laws. The modern figurine represents my presence in Azure Sea Planet while I in ancient clothes shows me in Yunlan Continent.’
But, What are the law of the world? Jia Hao felt like he could see the basic patterns.
For example, the Yunlan Continent is a land of spiritual energy and strange monsters. It’s an ancient world that deviated from the path of urbanization.
Therefore, if Jia Hao suddenly pulls out a rocket launcher from Azure Sea World and messes here, he will get targeted by the world law of Yunlan Continent.
Similarly, the Azure Sea World is an urban world, with technological and urban civilization. If Long Ming simply uses his overwhelming amount of power like internal qi and others, he will get noticed by the world law of Azure Sea World.
Not to mention, there are certain scripts which is the same as he saw in the game. So, he needs to follow the script and change them thoroughly, rather than using brute force to change them.
‘ But in regard, Yunlan Continent’s law is lax. Even without any modern weapon, I can use supernatural power to kill and do anything.’
He saw the balance weight of Azure Sea World was balanced perfectly. As for the Yunlan Continent, the feather weighs slightly more.
‘ Hmm, No matter what, I need to maintain the balance.’ Jia Hao thought inwardly. As he was thinking of resting or cultivating, a maid knocked on the door.
” Young Lord Jia, Are you inside?”
” What happened?” Jia Hao was confused. ” Come in.”
” A lady wishes to meet you, Young Lord. She is standing outside of the Cai Family estate.”
” She said she is from Phoenix Cloud Pavilion.”
Jia Hao was confused for a moment before his expression changed. ‘ Fuck! How did I forget about her?’
He dashed outside, trying to search for that lady.
” You…You are the attendant of Xu Chenlan, No?” Jia Hao recognized her, looking at her with slight worry.
” Is she alright?”
” Young Master Jia, Lady Xu is currently in the city market. She wonders if the young master is free to give his concubine the chance to meet him?”
” Is that what she said? Or you are just adding some butter?” Jia Hao’s lips twitched when he heard that.
” It was something Lady Xu said. I didn’t add anything, Young Master.” The maid pursed her lips before answering.
” Alright, Lead the way. I shall go and see.”
” Very well, Young Master. Please follow me.”

Meanwhile, Cai Yixue was in her room, looking at the documents of the shops. At that moment, Minmin came rushing.
” Young Lord…He actually solved the murder case!”
” What?” Cai Yixue couldn’t help but ask with a shocked voice.
” I am telling the truth. He made the culprit confess his sin. He acted so fast, like delivering justice like a lightning.” Minmin’s eyes sparkled.
” And, the way he left…It was so…amazing.”
