Chapter 1197: Chapter 711: Divine Battle_2

And indeed it is possible to exchange, but after the exchange, there won’t be many Merit Points left.

Mo Hua comes from a humble background, and inside the Taixu Token, not keeping over a thousand Merit Points always feels insecure.

“Merit Points…”

Suddenly, Mo Hua remembered that at the Dao Court, there was still a sum of Merit Points due to him.

It was the Merit Points promised by Uncle Gu for helping to arrest the Fire Buddha.

This sum of Merit Points is still going through the cumbersome process at the Dao Court.

It’s really too slow…

Mo Hua sighed.

Before, he had enough Merit Points and wasn’t in a rush, but now he could learn the Formation with Seventeen Patterns, and the consumption of Merit Points would be even greater.

Now somewhat in a tight spot, he urgently needed those Merit Points to address the pressing matter.

Mo Hua decided to prompt them.

During the day, Uncle Gu was busy with Dao Court affairs, which were quite hectic, so it would be inconvenient to disturb him.

After class at night, Mo Hua sent him a message:

“Uncle Gu, what about my Merit Points, haven’t they arrived yet?”

It took about 30 minutes for Gu Changhuai to respond, not knowing what he was busy with. It seemed he finally found time to reply:

“What Merit Points?”

Mo Hua’s face darkened, “The Merit Points for capturing the Fire Buddha!”

“Oh.”

It’s only then that Gu Changhuai remembered.

“It should be soon. I’ll go and urge them tomorrow. It’s estimated they will be approved in a couple of days and then transferred to Taixu Gate.”

Mo Hua was delighted inside and quickly changed his tone, “Thank you, Uncle Gu.”

“Hmm.”

Gu Changhuai said indifferently.

“By the way,” Mo Hua thought for a moment and then asked: “What about that Mr. Jin matter?”

Gu Changhuai was silent for a while.

Mo Hua said: “Just tell me a little bit…”

Some matters, especially at the Dao Court, needed to be kept secret and not disclosed to the public, Mo Hua was also clear about this.

Gu Changhuai sighed, “Telling you a bit won’t hurt…”

Mo Hua did have the main meritorious contribution in capturing Mr. Jin and his group.

Gu Changhuai said: “Xie Liu is temporarily detained in the Taoist Prison, charged with attacking the Department of Ceremonies at the Dao Court, other charges have yet to be substantiated…”

“The other disciples of Sever Gold Sect are also in custody. The Sever Gold Sect is trying to bail them out, but the operation is still in the shadows, and the result is unknown.”

“As for that Mr. Jin, the Dao Court has issued an order, and he has already been released…”

“Released?!” Mo Hua was startled.

Gu Changhuai sighed: “That Mr. Jin, named Jin Yicai, is from the Direct Lineage of the Direct Lineage of Sever Gold Sect. Indeed, as he claimed, his great-grandfather was once the Sect Leader of Sever Gold Sect, his grandfather is the Chief Elder, his father is the Vice Sect Leader, and his mother is the True Transmission Elder of Sever Gold Sect…”

“His father’s line has always held high positions within Sever Gold Sect through generations; his mother’s line is connected with the Central Dao Court Seven Chambers, and is rather prominent within the Taoist State.”

“Jin Yicai is the child of a marriage between two powerful families…”

Gu Changhuai said sarcastically: “But the marriage between two powerful families has produced such a brute. From an early age, he was arrogant and despised everyone, and now he is lawless…”

Mo Hua frowned, “But this…Jin Yicai, after all, has violated the Taoist Law, right? Trafficking cultivators, refining Human Pills, things have gotten this far, yet the Dao Court does nothing?”

“That’s exactly the problem…”

Gu Changhuai sighed, “He shoved off all the blame. Claiming he knew nothing about the trafficking of cultivators, and the private refining of Human Pills had nothing to do with him.”

“His father used Sever Gold Sect’s network to intercede with the Dao Court.”

“His mother used her maternal family’s connections, applying pressure secretly through Central Taoist State to the Qianxue State border.”

“She even personally visited the Dao Court once, saying Jin Yicai ‘is young and ignorant, just a child, what could he possibly know? If he ever did something wrong, someone must have framed him, or there might be someone inciting him behind his back…’

She also said ‘This child, I watched him grow up from a young age, he has good character, cultivates diligently, is filial and respects his elders, his maternal grandfather, and various ancestors in the state also speak highly of him…'”

Gu Changhuai’s expression was sarcastic, ultimately turning into helplessness.

“Sever Gold Sect is one of the Twelve Streams of Qianxue, to some extent, it represents the face of Qianxue State border; such a scandal cannot be exposed.”

“The Dao Court is constrained by many sides, and with many considerations, this case is also very difficult to proceed.”

Mo Hua had a complicated expression.

This Jin Yicai, whether genuine or pretending, might be a “child with good character and respectful to elders” in front of his parents and relatives.

But in the eyes of other cultivators, he was a thorough brute.

Such a big matter could actually be suppressed.

Everyone in the Dao Court could be bailed out.

For a moment, Mo Hua couldn’t distinguish, whether the real “evil” was the “Evil God” or the “human heart.”

“Be careful. Jin Yicai holds grudges, and he has met you. He may not let this humiliation go and could seek retribution against you,” Gu Changhuai advised, his heart filled with remorse.

If it were possible to deal with Jin Yicai within the Dao Court, Mo Hua would not have to face these risks.

Unfortunately, he was just a Supervisor, not a Court Leader.

If he were a Court Leader, possessing enough authority, he would have dealt with that little brute Jin Yicai without hesitation!

“Mm, don’t worry, Uncle Gu,” Mo Hua reassured.

He was not afraid of Jin Yicai.

Once he learned the Formation with Seventeen Patterns, he would be even less afraid.

He just needed to be cautious of Sever Gold Sect’s lackeys.

But that was also manageable.

In the future, he would either stay in his Sect or only visit the Second Grade State Border. Being careful in the Second Grade State Border, the Sever Gold Sect couldn’t do anything to him.

On the contrary, it was Uncle Gu who might be disliked by Jin Yicai, and even by the Jin family and most of the Sever Gold Sect, possibly even targeted by other Evil God’s minions.

“Uncle Gu, you be careful as well,” Mo Hua reminded.

“Hmm,” Gu Changhuai replied indifferently.

Mo Hua wasn’t sure if Gu knew the severity of the situation.

But anyway, Uncle Gu was a Golden Core cultivator, and also the Supervisor of the Dao Court. It was not up to him, a mere Foundation Establishment Disciple, to worry.
