The leading Law Enforcement Hall disciple immediately gestured.
"Since the investigation is over, Sun the Alchemist is innocent. With the urgency of the matter, I apologize for any offense."
"Naturally."
A squad of black-robed Law Enforcement Hall disciples turned around at once, then one at the end of the line suddenly paused and turned, voicing a request.
"Sun the Alchemist, it's just routine... may I check your Sumeru Ring?"
As he spoke, his eyes swept over Su Mu's face like a hawk, yet Su Mu appeared calm, having anticipated this situation.
Su Mu feigned a bit of hesitation, then handed over the Sumeru Ring.
The Law Enforcement Hall disciple took it and quickly scanned its contents with Spiritual Power, finding only pills, herbs, and silver notes—no Secret Manual of Flying Fish Pavilion.
"Nonsense..."
The leading Law Enforcement Hall disciple reprimanded, then spoke politely, "Sun the Alchemist, please forgive us..."
