Chapter 22: Exemptions

What strong Killing Intent. The Second Elder's heart trembled: You brat, let's see how I deal with you.

But on the surface, the Second Elder said calmly, "Zhang Dou has confessed. Now it's Zhang Jianfeng's turn."

Saying this, the Second Elder walked up to Zhang Dou, his Killing Intent chilling.

Zhang Jianfeng's face was ashen. He looked at Zhang Xiaomin with pity and pleaded with Zhang Hao, "Zhang Hao, help me take care of my sister. I will repay you in my next life."

"No... Brother..." Zhang Xiaomin hugged Zhang Jianfeng tightly and wept bitterly.

The Second Elder looked at Zhang Hao with a mocking gaze.

Zhang Hao also felt a surge of anger in his heart that was almost about to explode him.

Zhang Hao, oh Zhang Hao, can it be that you can't even protect your own brother? What use are you then? Let alone talk about revenge.

Although Zhang Hao wanted to stop the Second Elder, he knew that doing so would definitely play right into the Second Elder's hands.

Suddenly, Zhang Hao remembered something. He was immediately overjoyed. He cursed himself for being foolish. How could he have forgotten this method?

Seeing that the Second Elder was about to make his move, Zhang Hao shouted loudly, "Wait!"

A flicker of triumph flashed in the Second Elder's eyes, but he quickly composed himself, turned to look at Zhang Hao, and said righteously, "What, are you trying to obstruct the Hall of Law Enforcement's punishment of a criminal?"

Zhang Hao smiled faintly and said, "Second Uncle, don't make a big deal out of it. However, I just won't allow you to touch him."

"Hahaha... On what basis? On the basis that you are the Young Master of the Zhang family?" The Second Elder burst into laughter.

The Disciples of the Hall of Law Enforcement around also burst into laughter.

Zhang Jianfeng smiled bitterly at Zhang Hao and said, "Zhang Hao, don't worry about me. Remember to agree to my previous request, and I, Zhang Jianfeng, will forever be grateful to you."

Zhang Hao did not answer Zhang Jianfeng's words, but just said faintly to the Second Elder, "That's right, on the basis that I am the Young Master of the Zhang family."

The Second Elder said darkly to Zhang Hao, "Zhang Hao, although you are currently the Young Master of the Zhang family, what right do you have to stop me from executing a criminal? Didn't he just tell me to treat everyone equally?"

The Second Elder's words made the few Disciples and Elders around who were on Zhang Hao's side speechless, because now the Second Elder was on the side of reason.

Zhang Hao said to Zhang Chao, the Deputy Head of the Hall of Law Enforcement, "Zhang Chao, what is the last rule of the Zhang family's household law?"

Zhang Chao was stunned for a moment. Because of the previous example, he didn't dare to speak, just stammered.

"You won't say it, huh? It's alright, I'll say it."

"The last rule of the Zhang family's household law stipulates. The Family Head and Young Master have one chance for amnesty in their lifetime, allowing them to pardon all crimes of a designated clan member, except for the crime of treason. Am I mistaken?" Zhang Hao exuded a boundless Aura from his entire body.

The Second Elder was stunned, because this household law indeed existed. It was just that previous Family Heads and Young Masters rarely used this right of amnesty, but no one would deny the existence of this household law.
