Law Enforcement Hall.
The law enforcement disciples retrieved the letters from the mailbox.
These letters were all submitted by disciples from various peaks, sent anonymously.
They could freely express their thoughts, writing about people or matters within Shushan that broke the rules.
Of course, anonymity was always just talk.
Every day, the law enforcement disciples would hand over the letters to the Law Enforcement Elder.
Today was no different.
After drinking a cup of morning tea, the Law Enforcement Elder opened today's complaint letters.
[Someone pooped on the back mountain of Little Qiong Peak and was stepped on by a passing disciple.]
The Law Enforcement Elder put down the pastry in his hand and continued reading.
Someone reported a certain disciple for speeding on their sword within Shushan.
Someone reported a disciple for intentionally destroying the flowers and plants they had planted, someone reported improper relationships, and some even reported gossip about others...
Most of them were trivial matters.
He continued reading.
"Lin Wanqing, a disciple of Silver Sword Peak, brought an unidentified person back to Shushan. I hope the Law Enforcement Hall can investigate thoroughly."
Fanyue, the Law Enforcement Elder had already met him before.
Could this person be problematic? He was so handsome, and he even made one's heart flutter a little.
The Law Enforcement Elder coughed lightly and patted his fair, tender cheek.
Love at first sight? Not exactly.
But he was indeed captivating, especially those deep, amorous peach blossom eyes.
Calling him "Sister" one after another made one's mind swirl.
Fanyue, his name was also incredibly pleasant to hear.
It was a pity that it wasn't him who met him, but rather his junior disciple Lin Wanqing.
Indeed, staying in the sect, one wouldn't find love.
He was getting old~
The Law Enforcement Elder picked up a small mirror and looked at himself.
And so, in his watery-eyed state, he completely ignored the anonymous letter provided by Ling Xuanxiao.
"..."
Seeing that neither the Law Enforcement Elder nor the Deputy Sect Leader had replied.
Ling Xuanxiao knew he needed to take the next step.
He checked the wooden cicada that was monitoring Fanyue.
The wooden cicada was intact and had not been discovered.
Fanyue showed no abnormalities.
When Zhao Lu returned, she easily found out where Fanyue and Third Senior Sister Lin Wanqing had met.
Zhao Lu said proudly, "Senior Brother, how are you going to reward me?"
"Close the door, Senior Brother will reward you properly."
Zhao Lu was stunned for a moment, then her pretty face blushed.
After being with Senior Brother for so long, he had finally acted like a man.
Zhao Lu waved her hand and used a spell to close the door.
"Bang—!!"
A moment later, Zhao Lu's voice came from the thatched hut.
"Senior Brother... Senior Brother!"
"No! Absolutely not... Senior Brother, I can't take it anymore..."
"Senior Brother..."
Zhao Lu collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath.
Her body was flushed red, and she felt as if her meridians were about to explode, her Blood Essence surging like a river.
"For the next few days, you should properly digest this Tiger Demon Pill."
The Tiger Demon Pill was refined by Ling Xuanxiao from the two dead Tiger Demons.
There were four in total, and one was fed to Junior Sister Zhao Lu.
It could increase her Bloodline Power.
Immediately, Ling Xuanxiao left Shushan.
He rode his sword straight to the location where Lin Wanqing and Fanyue had met.
"..."
The journey was silent, and he didn't encounter any more injured women.
He did, however, conveniently rescue a merchant caravan being robbed by bandits.
Several days later.
Ling Xuanxiao arrived at the riverbank where the two had met.
Ling Xuanxiao cast the Water Evasion Technique and dove directly into the river.
He attempted to find the River God of this river.
But he quickly discovered that not only was there no River God here, but even the slightly spiritualized aquatic life in the river was gone.
Ling Xuanxiao then tried to find the local Mountain God or Earth God, but they were also gone.
Ling Xuanxiao stomped his foot, preparing to cast a spell to summon spirits.
He intended to draw in any spiritualized beings within a radius of dozens of miles to question them.
Just then, three figures suddenly entered Ling Xuanxiao's Spiritual Sense range.
One at the early Golden Core Stage, and two at the perfected Foundation Establishment Stage.
Evil cultivators!!
The three had hidden themselves very well.
But the Sword Box on Ling Xuanxiao's back, the sword left by the previous Sect Leader, sensed the demonic energy and was humming.
Three against one, with one of them being a Golden Core cultivator.
Direct confrontation was inadvisable.
Ling Xuanxiao immediately concealed himself.
He didn't flee immediately, vaguely feeling that these three suddenly appearing Evil Cultivators were not that simple.
"This is the place."
The Golden Core cultivator glanced around.
"The marker pointed here, it's also where Lord's last trace of aura was."
"How can this be? The Hall Master tasked us with finding Lord, but the aura just disappears here."
Lord? Could it be Fanyue?
Ling Xuanxiao immediately connected Fanyue to the mention.
"Who's there!"
The Golden Core cultivator suddenly shouted.
"Come out!"
Ling Xuanxiao didn't move. Suddenly, a figure streaked across the distance.
"Trying to leave? Not so easy."
The Golden Core cultivator pointed a finger through the air.
The figure immediately fell from the sky, spitting blood.
The two Foundation Establishment Evil Cultivators immediately flanked them, seized the person, and brought them over.
Is that a monk?
No, just a bald guy.
"Who are you?"
"Golden Thunder Sect's Zhang Tianxin."
The three Evil Cultivators, as well as Ling Xuanxiao hiding in the shadows, fell silent.
Wh-what an embarrassing name~
"Following me? Overestimating yourself."
Zhang Tianxin's lips twitched slightly. "How do you know this isn't my plan? Including being brought before you!"
"Oh?"
"Boom!!"
Zhang Tianxin suddenly erupted, throwing a punch.
Golden lightning flashed across his body.
Despite being in the Foundation Establishment Stage, he instantly unleashed power comparable to a Golden Core cultivator.
Even Ling Xuanxiao was a bit surprised.
Zhang Tianxin forced back a Golden Core Stage cultivator with a single punch, then quickly became entangled with the two Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators.
Golden Thunder Sect cultivators excelled at the Golden Thunder Body Tempering Method.
They had few disciples, but it was said that each one was exceptionally gifted.
When the Golden Thunder Body Tempering Method was cultivated to great mastery, it rendered one immune to all spells, making it incredibly formidable.
Now, it seemed the Golden Thunder Body Tempering Method truly lived up to its reputation.
A Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator was actually fighting a Golden Core Stage cultivator and two Foundation Establishment Stage Evil Cultivators to a standstill, forcing them to retreat.
However, a Golden Core Stage cultivator was still a Golden Core Stage cultivator, after all.
No matter how fierce Zhang Tianxin was, she was only at the Foundation Establishment Stage.
By the time the Golden Core Stage Evil Cultivator reacted, he quickly stabilized the battle.
Ling Xuanxiao reached out and pressed down on his restless Sword Box.
He prepared to find a suitable opportunity for an open and aboveboard sneak attack!
Judging by the current situation, Zhang Tianxin of the Golden Thunder Sect could hold on for a while longer.
However, just then, Ling Xuanxiao's expression suddenly changed slightly.
The other sword hilts within the Sword Box also began to tremble violently.
This was not a vibration that a single Golden Core Stage cultivator could cause.
