All In!

He dragged Xu Lao San outside. Outside, in the Lin Family manor, the Lin Family head and others who had fallen into the pond were being pulled out by the yamen runners.

Shen Qing casually threw the Xu Lao San in his hand to the scholar.

Then he summoned a yamen runner standing beside him.

"Are you local? Do you know where Ox Horn Mountain is?"

Seeing Xu Lao San's miserable state, the yamen runner's legs went weak. He collapsed directly onto the ground, unable to speak.

Shen Qing glanced at him, grabbed the yamen runner's arm, and lifted him onto a nearby wooden stake, patting the dust off him.

"What are you afraid of? You're not the one who committed the crime."

The yamen runner was stunned for a moment. That's right, it wasn't me who committed the crime, so why should I be afraid?

"Reporting to Your Excellency, Ox Horn Mountain is just south of Ping An Town, about ten miles away. It's easy to recognize, shaped like an ox's horn."

Shen Qing nodded and patted the yamen runner's shoulder.

The yamen runner's eyes immediately welled up. Weren't the Imperial Guards supposed to be ruthless killers?

But looking at him now, this Commander was not only handsome but also kind.

Shen Qing looked at the scholar beside him.

"Any news from Black Dog?"

There were two suspects in total: Xu Lao San and Lu Hei Zhang.

Xu Lao San's strength was unknown, so Shen Qing apprehended him personally. Lu Hei Zhang was at the ninth layer of the Body Tempering Realm. Black Dog and Old Li had taken six Imperial Guards and about ten yamen runners to surround and capture him.

The scholar, hearing Xu Lao San's screams, couldn't help but gasp, even as an Imperial Guard.

"Reporting, Boss, Black Dog sent word. Lu Hei Zhang didn't resist and has been captured."

Shen Qing waved his hand. "Set off fireworks, gather everyone, and let them release Lu Hei Zhang."

The scholar's eyes sharpened. He drew a crossbow from his waist and shot a red flare into the sky.

Only then did he look at Shen Qing.

"Your Excellency, what are we gathering for?"

"To eliminate Ox Horn Mountain and chop off the heads of this Xu Lao San's accomplices."

The world says that the Imperial Guards live with their heads on their belts.

This saying is indeed true. The Imperial Guards inevitably make enemies when they kill, and it's not uncommon for enemies to seek revenge.

However, there are ways to avoid this.

That is to find the enemy first and put his head on your own belt.

Shen Qing snorted and walked towards a corner.

Suddenly, a sound echoed in his ears.

[A new day has arrived. Congratulations on obtaining one attribute upgrade opportunity.]

Shen Qing looked at the moon obscured by dark clouds in the sky. Had it passed midnight?

[Current Cultivation: Houtian Realm Second Layer]

[Current Technique: Overbearing Meridian Opening Art]

[Current Martial Arts: Roughening Wind Saber Technique (Mastered), Carefree Steps (Mastered)]

[Current Attributes]

[Clear Mind (Red), Innate Blade Immortal (Red), Drunkard (Green), Fan User (Green), Extraordinary Physique (Green)]

[Current Attribute Upgrade Opportunities: 4]

Four days had passed, and he had accumulated 4 attribute upgrade opportunities. He could upgrade another green attribute to red.

Shen Qing could also upgrade once a day.

Enjoying the thrill of attributes growing from weak to strong. But still.

Shen Qing preferred another kind of feeling.

That is.

Come on! Extraordinary Physique! I'm going all in!

Consuming four attribute upgrade opportunities.

Extraordinary Physique (Green) upgraded to: Bronze Skin Iron Bones (Blue) upgraded to: Innate Divine Strength (Purple) upgraded to: Dragon Sinew Tiger Bone (Gold) upgraded to: Body Sanctification (Red)

Body Sanctification (Red): Physical strength is extremely enhanced, and control over muscles reaches its peak.

If you can't find the book by its title, try searching for the author. Perhaps the title has been changed!

Shen Qing slowly opened his eyes. He casually picked up a stone beside him and held it in his palm. With a slight exertion, without even using his internal energy, the stone crumbled into powder.

Body Sanctification?

This is excellent. As an ambitious young man who has transmigrated, one naturally needs to develop in all aspects: moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic, and labor.

A traverser who has weaknesses, are they even a traverser anymore?

Recalling his thoughts, he raised his head and saw Black Dog and the others entering the Lin Family's main gate.

They stood ramrod straight, all looking towards Shen Qing, waiting for him to give the order.

Shen Qing got up, grabbed the chain, and dragged Xu Lao San towards the outside of the main gate.

Suddenly, a chubby middle-aged man jogged towards Shen Qing.

"Lord Shen, Lord Shen, please wait a moment."

Shen Qing turned his head and looked at him.

This chubby middle-aged man was the head of the Lin Family, the one Xu Lao San had beaten and thrown into the pond. He had already woken up.

"Thank you so much this time, Lord Shen! If it weren't for you, my daughter would have been finished."

As he spoke, he took out three hundred tael silver notes from his embrace.

"My Lin Family is not a prominent family, so these three hundred taels..."

As soon as these words were spoken, all eyes suddenly turned towards the head of the Lin Family, whether they were Imperial Guards or constables.

Noticing the gazes of those around him, the head of the Lin Family's voice grew softer.

Shen Qing couldn't hold back anymore: "Are you trying to bribe an Imperial Guard?"

Giving a gift to an Imperial Guard? And so openly? Was this something anyone could think of?

However, the head of the Lin Family was worthy of being a businessman; his mind was quick. He slapped his forehead and then kicked Xu Lao San.

"Really, Lord Shen, look at me, my cultivation is still too weak. I was injured by this Xu Lao San, and I misspoke."

"These three hundred taels fell from Xu Lao San when he broke in earlier. I estimate it's ill-gotten gains."

Shen Qing snorted: "Scholar, confiscate the ill-gotten gains."

At this moment, Xu Lao San on the ground couldn't hold back. After being abused and slandered, he was about to argue.

It had to be the Scholar. With quick eyes and hands, he directly stepped on Xu Lao San's mouth with one foot.

Shen Qing waved his hand: "Move out! Annihilate Ox Horn Mountain!"

"Yes!"

All the Imperial Guards shouted in unison and followed him out of the gate.

The constables and the Lin Family members all walked out to see Shen Qing off.

After Shen Qing and his group disappeared at the end of the street, the constable looked at the head of the Lin Family.

"Old Lin, it's not me saying this, but what the hell were you thinking? Handing over silver notes to the Imperial Guards? Everything you just said could have sent all of us to jail."

The head of the Lin Family was also somewhat annoyed: "Stop talking about it. I was really injured by Xu Lao San. He kicked me flying, and my head hit a rock. Then I soaked in the pond for a cup of tea. If it were you, you'd be delirious too."

Lin Yunyun walked up at this moment: "Uncle Constable, what was the identity of that adult just now?"

The Lin Family and the constable's family were old acquaintances with a good relationship, and the constable treated Lin Yunyun like his own daughter.

The constable rubbed Lin Yunyun's head with some heartache.

"You're asking about Lord Shen? He's an absolute ruthless man. I only had a few casual chats with him when we were apprehending Lu Hei Zhang. I'm telling you, don't spread this around."

As soon as they heard there was gossip, everyone in the courtyard, whether injured or disabled, pricked up their ears.

"This Lord Shen is an Imperial Guard Commander from Baiyun County."

"Just five days ago, this Lord Shen, within a single day, wiped out the Sishui Gang, the Huang Family, and then took down the former Commander of Baiyun County. He even uncovered a White Dragon Cult stronghold."

At this point, the constable looked back at the head of the Lin Family with lingering fear.

"So you were trying to hand over silver notes to such a ruthless person just now? I almost wet myself, do you know that?"

The head of the Lin Family wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He had seen the world before. He had heard of the Huang Family and the Sishui Gang; either one was stronger than his Lin Family. As for the Commander and the White Dragon Cult, he didn't even dare to think about them.

"I really didn't expect Lord Shen to be so ruthless."

Lin Yunyun thought of the scene where Shen Qing descended from the sky to save her earlier, and then said with a smile.

"I think Lord Shen is quite good. Those people he wiped out must have deserved it! Lord Shen must be doing the right thing!"

At this moment, a weak voice came from the side. It was the constable Shen Qing had asked for directions earlier.

"I also think Lord Shen is quite good."
