Chapter 543: The Girl is Saved...now what?

[Huh...I'm not gonna lie, I'm surprised that actually worked,] Razorstella commented as she watched the director manage to walk away from his extended family without causing further conflict, [I honestly figured that Zhen Ba Yin guy would've tried to detain them because of public disturbances or something like that.]

[I didn't,] Hurricroak refuted, [he's a law man, of course he didn't do anything further.]

[Huh? What does that have to do with anything?]

[Above...law...is...power...,] Frosttusk answered.

[What the big guy said. Despite popular belief that the law affects everyone equally, power tends to trump it. That guy thinks our lord is way more powerful than what he can detect, so even if it's his job to maintain the law of society, he'll defer to the greater one. That of the jungle.]

[Huh...]

[Big sis Hurricroak...why did that sound like the voice of experience?,] Spring Brawler asked.

[...I read a lot.]

[...okay.]
