Linjiang Prefecture.

Moo——

The giant rock bulls, carrying heavy trucks, lined up in a row and walked towards the towering city ahead.

From time to time, a driver would wave the whip in his hand, urging the Yan Niu to speed up.

"Linjiang Prefecture City has arrived."

A tall and tall figure Wandering Hero walked out of the forest, his eyes fell on the towering city lying on the ground, with a bit of emotion in his eyes.

Not Lin Sheng or whoever.

We have arrived at Prefecture City, and are not far away from the Clear Spring Villa.

He took out the map from his hand, which recorded Linjiang Prefecture counties, towns and towns.

Soon I found the location of Clear Spring Town on it.

After writing down the location, he put away the map but was not in a hurry to go to Clear Spring Town.

It sounds like there are still many old friends in Linjiang Prefecture.

After this time, I'm afraid I won't come back here again in a short time.

Naturally, I have to go and meet him.

Ping County boundaries.

A dozen figures slowly emerged from the forest.

The leader was a man in his early thirties who was wearing a gold silk robe with gold thread embroidered on his chest. The man had fair skin and handsome appearance, but his eyebrows were narrow and his eyes were thin, and his lips were thin, which gave him a bit of meanness. Coupled with the arrogance on his face, his good appearance was brought down a bit.

"The Pine Crane Sect remnant is seriously injured and will never be able to run far. The old guy has Pine Crane Sect's Hidden Cache information on him. He must not be allowed to run away."

The man glanced at the dozens of figures beside him and spoke lightly.

"Linjiang Prefecture is your territory. I have transferred you here. Everything must be done according to my wishes. Now immediately send people to me to look for traces of the old guy."

"Subordinates take orders."

The dozen or so Silver Badge Constables behind the man immediately bowed to take orders and immediately went down to arrange for manpower to search.

Two Silver Badge Constables formed a team and led several Blood Circulation realm patrols to start a quick search.

"Damn, this Song Zhuo only arranged for us brothers to search all night long, but those Silver Badge Constables he brought have been eating and drinking in the city. How arrogant."

A burly Silver Badge Constable couldn't help but curse.

"Brother Liu, do you think I'm right? Why is Lu Tou so cooperative with this guy? I heard that Song Zhuo has strong connections behind his back and a large amount of rare resources, so he barely broke through Divine Form. If I had such resources, my cultivation level would definitely be much higher than him."

The burly man spoke with a hint of complaint and jealousy.

Apparently he was quite dissatisfied with this Golden Seal Divine Constable who suddenly came to Linjiang Prefecture.

"Okay, Brother Wang, it's better to be cautious about what you say. This Song Zhuo is everyone in Fulong City. There is also a relationship between the Sky Rainbow Pavilion behind him, and there is Grandmaster in his clan. Master, let alone you and me with such an identity and background, even Lu Tou will naturally not dare to offend him. If you don't like him, just find that Pine Crane Sect person as soon as possible and send him away."

The person who spoke was a tall and thin young man. The man was in his 20s, but his cultivation level was not low. He had a solid late Bone Transformation cultivation level.

There is no weapon on his body like other head catchers, only a Tungsten Iron palm glove on each arm, shining with a faint light.

Hearing the young man's words, the head catcher named Wang nodded helplessly, but he was still a little angry. He played with a jade in his hand and said.

"Having said that, I heard that the remnant of the Pine Crane Sect has the cultivation level of Divine Form Three Transformations. Although he has been seriously injured and his strength is not as good as before, he is still Divine Form Martial Artist after all. If he is discovered by the likes of us, he may not be able to stop his dying counterattack, and he may even lose his life."

Having said this, his eyes fell on the young man.

"Brother Liu, you are our Linjiang Prefecture's number one genius, and you may be Grandmaster in the future. If we brothers really encounter that remnant, we must remember to protect ourselves. This is what Lu Tou means."

"Brother Wang is ridiculous. What virtues and abilities does Mr. Liu have? He can be called the number one genius in the house, but of course Mr. Liu will take his own safety to heart."

Liu Tianci shook his head slightly and smiled.

But in my heart, I couldn't help but think of the terrifying figure in the Congyun Mountain Range.

That battle was still fresh in his memory, and it even affected his cultivation to some extent.

Until recently, he had erased the shadow left by the other party from his heart.

Perhaps only he can become the first genius of Linjiang Prefecture.

Thinking of this person who was also from Lin'an Town like himself, Liu Tianci felt that the other person was an insurmountable wall. Especially after hearing about the tragic incident that happened to Jade Sea Pass, it shocked him even more.

Not just him, it can be said that the entire Northern Yan court was shocked.

Just as the two men were following their men over the mountains to search, the jade in their hands suddenly vibrated.

It shocked the two of them and they looked at each other.

"There's a situation!!"

Before the two of them could do anything, they saw a red smoke explode in the sky from a distance.

"Let's go!"

The two of them did not hesitate and immediately led the people towards the direction of the smoke.

After one stick of incense.

As soon as the two arrived at the smoke, they felt two powerful waves of force coming from the nearby mountains and forests.

Soon two figures rushed out of the forest, moving quickly while constantly fighting.

One of them is Song Zhuo, and his opponent is an old man in gray clothes.

"Old guy, after running so far, I am still hunting you down. Give up your resistance. If you continue to use your strength without reservation, I'm afraid your body will break into pieces and die without me catching you."

Song Zhuo's face was full of excitement. The sword in his hand danced vigorously. Divine Form attacked the opponent with unreserved strength, while constantly making interference noises from his mouth.

"You damn Imperial Court eagle dogs, even if I, Zhou Tong, die in battle, you will never be captured without mercy."

The old man in gray roared angrily, his face as red as blood, and he kept raising his hands to block the opponent's continuous attacks.

It's just that he was seriously injured. At this moment, he forcibly mobilized his strength to promote the secret technique. However, after a few moves, strands of blood were already flowing from his eyes, nose, and mouth.

The originally red complexion began to turn pale quickly, and the energy in his body quickly stagnated, making it difficult to fully mobilize.

Seeing this scene, Song Zhuo had a deeper smile on his face, and his attack became more intense, without giving the opponent any chance to breathe.

"Isn't this going to work, old guy? I'm really disappointed with this god."

Zhou Tong's face was gloomy and ugly, and he already knew in his heart that if he continued like this, he might really die from his injuries.

Although he had been determined to die since being discovered by the opponent, he was still unwilling to die like this. He immediately pushed the secret method of strength with all his strength, ignored the opponent's offensive at all, and rushed towards the opponent, completely risking his life.

Understanding what the other party meant, Song Zhuo narrowed his eyes slightly and slowed down his attack.

They don't fight with their lives at all, but stick to each other like dog-skin plaster.

After several more moves, Zhou Tong finally reached its limit.

Poof——

With a sound, he opened his mouth and spit out a lot of blood.

Feeling that the power in his body was quickly withdrawing, Zhou Tong did not hesitate, raised his hand and slapped his head hard with his remaining strength.

"You want to commit suicide, old guy, are you dreaming?"

Before his palm fell, Song Zhuo's sarcastic voice sounded from his ears.

He grabbed his wrist tightly and couldn't move at all.

At the same time, Song Zhuo quickly tapped him several times, and at the same time threw two pills into his mouth, and then threw him on the ground.

"Old guy, you don't have the slightest chance now, please tell me where your Pine Crane Sect and Hidden Cache are. Maybe my compassionate heart can make you feel better."

Looking at Zhou Tong who was unable to move, he spoke lightly with a smile on his lips.

However, the next moment, his expression suddenly changed, because the light in the eyes of Zhou Tong, who was lying on the ground, quickly dissipated, and wisps of black blood flowed from his mouth.

Song Zhuo quickly squatted down to check its situation, but unfortunately it was too late.

At this time, Zhou Tong's aura had dissipated, the light in his eyes completely disappeared, and there was no longer any life left.

"Asshole!!"

Song Zhuo looked extremely ugly and raised his hand to kill the opponent with a knife.

He didn't expect that he had already taken the poison in advance.

He was not given a chance to interrogate him at all. You must know that there are many methods in Prefectural Office. Even if the other party is Divine Form Martial Artist, you can still explore part of his memory with some tricks.

But the premise is that the other party is still alive, and now facing a corpse, no matter what means are used, it will be useless.

"Lord Divine Catcher..."

At this time, a group of Silver Badge Constables came around quickly and approached. The person walking in the front opened his mouth to say something. As soon as he opened his mouth, his body flew out and fell to the ground hard. Blood dripped from the corner of his mouth, obviously he was seriously injured.

"A bunch of idiots, how could they have gotten to this point if you hadn't alerted them."

Song Zhuo stood with his fists folded and his hands covered, his expression cold as he glanced at the crowd.

Liu Tianci and the others felt a chill in their hearts and quickly lowered their heads, not daring to look at them.

"Continue to search for me, find out where this old guy is hiding, and see what you find."

Song Zhuo spoke coldly.

"As for the old guy's body, leave it to me to feed the dogs."

"Yes, sir."

A group of catchers immediately responded and took action quickly.

Not long after, someone came to report.

"Lord Divine Catcher discovered a hidden cave, which should be the place where the remnant lives."

"Take me there."

Hearing this, Song Zhuo narrowed his eyes slightly and spoke coldly.

Soon he arrived at the short mountain. Looking at the cave on the mountainside, he had a sneer on his face.

"Is there any town near here?"

"Replying to your lord, this is within Ping County. There are two towns closest to this short mountain. One is Green Pine Town and the other is Clear Spring Town."

One Silver Badge Constable quickly answered.

"Then send people to search these two places carefully."

Song Zhuo said in a deep voice, while his eyes fell on the cave again.

"In addition, send someone to guard this cave all day long."

"Yes, sir."

*

Tianxiang Sword Sect.

"Are we going to send our disciples to help again?"

Song Changfeng, who was wearing a moon-white robe, frowned slightly as he looked at the letter in his hand.

"This is already the third time this month. The disciples from the first two batches haven't come back yet. I'm afraid it won't take long if this continues. I, Tianxiang Sword Sect, am afraid I will become an empty shell."

As Tianxiang Sword Sect's First Elder, he has always been responsible for handling many things of the Tianxiang Sword Sect.

But things were different now. His eyes fell on the middle-aged man with a square face.

"Sect Master, it's time for us to make a choice."

The middle-aged man has white hair, but his face looks much younger. He carries two swords on his back and has a calm expression.

"Since Imperial Court has taken action, it is obvious that he wants to subdue all the sect forces. We can avoid it for a while but we cannot avoid it forever. If we want to continue the sect's inheritance, we can only choose to join."

He is Tianxiang Sword Sect, the master of Zheng Wufeng.

I have been in Secluded Cultivation originally, and I just left the company in the past two months.

"It's just a pity that Shui'er is not here, otherwise I might be able to enter the Sky Rainbow Pavilion selection. If I can join Sky Rainbow Pavilion, I might not be able to get a glimpse of Grandmaster in the future."

"Yes, if it hadn't been for that Zhuzi, I, Tianxiang Sword Sect, would not have lost my reputation and become a laughing stock in the world."

Song Changfeng looked a little gloomy and said slowly.

"I really should have taken action myself and killed that kid with my sword, so there wouldn't have been so many troubles."

Thinking of the death of Jianzi and the elder after the battle in the Congyun Mountains, and the loss of two famous swords at the same time, it can be said that the reputation of their Tianxiang Sword Sect in Linjiang Mansion was seriously damaged.

It even affected many interests.

Every time he thought about this, he regretted why he didn't do it himself.

"That's all, First Elder don't have to stick to this matter anymore. Dark Star, your life is not easy now. I heard that the boy has been named by the dragon demon himself. I don't think he has much life left."

Zheng Wufeng said slowly.

"And we, Tianxiang Sword Sect, have also helped the government during this period and eliminated two Dark Star strongholds of Linjiang Prefecture, which can be regarded as indirect revenge."

"What the sect leader said makes sense."

Hearing this, Song Changfeng's expression softened a little.

"Since I have decided to join Imperial Court, I will personally go to Prefecture City tomorrow to try my best to gain more benefits for the sect."

"Okay, then it's time for you First Elder."

Zheng Wufeng nodded.

Having said this, he remembered something again and asked.

"How is Zhou'er's recent practice?"

"Don't worry, Sect Master. Although Zhou'er is still young, his understanding is extremely high. Although Bloodline's power is slightly inferior to Leng Shui's, his future achievements may not be worse than Leng Shui's. I, Tianxiang Sword Sect, am lucky."

"That's good."

Zheng Wufeng nodded with satisfaction, just when he was about to say something else.

A muffled bang sounded from the ceiling.

"Who!?"

Zheng Wufeng's face hardened and he shouted sternly.

As he finished speaking, the two long swords behind him were unsheathed and turned into two streams of light that shot towards the ceiling. His figure followed closely and rose from the ground.

Dangdang...

Two crisp chimes of gold and iron sounded from the ceiling.

A Wandering Hero figure has landed steadily on the ground.

The figure is tall and straight, holding two long swords that are constantly vibrating in his big hand with clear joints, while the other big hand is holding a puddle of mud-like Zheng Wufeng.

Click——

In Song Changfeng's horrified eyes, the two famous sect swords shattered in response.

The figure of Wandering Hero crushed the body of Zheng Wufeng, which was like a dead dog, and his indifferent eyes fell on Song Changfeng, who was standing still.

"Tell me, where is the Tianxiang Sword Sect master?"
