Ye Zhen's maid, Hundred Herbs, had died—which, ordinarily, within the Martial Artist Spirit Institute of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect, wasn't an uncommon occurrence. Furthermore, due to the disparity in status, even if more maids died within the institute, nobody would bother to inquire.
However, the timing of Hundred Herbs' death under Ye Zhen's service was too coincidental, especially since it happened last night when the leak of the Defense Map occurred, and she died unnaturally!
Therefore, the deacons of the Punishment Hall came knocking.
After all, this was still the aftermath of last night's incident. Even though the Sun and Moon Divine Sect didn't suffer much loss last night, there were still many unsolved mysteries, such as who really killed Liu Hong... among others, hence the Punishment Hall had to continue their investigation.
