Why Don’t You Aim for the Sky?

The main hall of Wind Chasing Hall.

"This is truly unusual. Someone from the Jingwu Bureau is actually here to investigate a case at Wind Chasing Hall. I've never heard of such a thing."

"You're telling me. I'm starting to suspect they're impostors."

"Look at the one on the right. I doubt he's even twenty. Don't you have to graduate from a martial arts university and have five years of experience at Wind Chasing Hall to join the Jingwu Bureau? How could anyone be this young?"

Gao Qiang listened to the murmurs around him, a sense of confusion growing in his heart.

He had assumed Chu Sheng had already smoothed things over, but they had been waiting for quite some time now.

It was one thing that the Bureau Chief hadn't appeared, But why wasn't even a single person there to receive them?

Just then, Sun Ming returned.

"My apologies to you both. Our Bureau Chief stated that your Jingwu Bureau and our Wind Chasing Hall belong to different systems.

If you wish to investigate a case here, your Bureau Chief must first inform the City Lord. Only with the City Lord's special authorization can we cooperate with you."

Hearing this, the surrounding Wind Chasing Hall investigators all wore expressions of "I knew it."

They had already guessed this would be the outcome.

If it had been a Gold Patrol officer, or even a Silver Patrol officer, the Bureau Chief might have shown them some respect.

But it just had to be two Bronze Patrol officers.

After speaking, Sun Ming made a gesture to escort them out.

However, Chu Sheng showed no intention of leaving.

"I think you might have misunderstood something..."

"When did I say I was here to investigate a case?"

Sun Ming blinked, "What do you mean? Didn't you just say you were here for a case?"

Chu Sheng nodded.

"That's right, but what I meant was, we're here to arrest someone!"

"The person in charge of Cui Hao's suicide case, the coroner, and the staff member who 'accidentally' sent the body for cremation."

"These three individuals need to come back to our Jingwu Bureau with us!"

At his words, the entire hall of Wind Chasing Hall fell silent.

All the investigators stared at Chu Sheng, dumbfounded.

Wait, investigating a case here, alright.

But arresting someone? What were you thinking!?

What authority do you have to arrest people in our Wind Chasing Hall?

After a brief moment of astonishment, Sun Ming chuckled.

"Arresting someone, huh... Sure, go back and find your Bureau Chief, have him talk to the City Lord first."

With that, he stood directly in front of Chu Sheng.

As Xie Lian's confidant, he knew some of the inside story regarding Cui Hao's suicide case.

An investigation was definitely out of the question for them.

And arresting someone!?

That was even less likely.

Seeing how young Chu Sheng was, Sun Ming immediately formed a plan.

The corners of his mouth curved into a smile once more.

"Or, you could try to force your way in if you dare..."

This person was still just a youth; his temper surely wasn't stable.

As long as he could provoke him into taking action.

Then things would escalate significantly.

At that point, even the Jingwu Bureau Chief would have to personally intervene to protect them.

Would the Jingwu Bureau still pursue Cui Hao's case then?

At the thought, Sun Ming's smile grew even more smug.

He was solving a problem for the Bureau Chief, and he'd surely get a good reward for it.

Gao Qiang said from the side, "Young Master Chu, let's head back first and find the Bureau Chief..."

Chu Sheng shook his head, his gaze fixed on Sun Ming.

"So, are you intending to obstruct justice?"

"I am giving you a first warning now. The second time, I will have to resort to force."

As he spoke, Chu Sheng fully revealed his aura, the full might of his sixth-stage Qi Sea Realm cultivation.

The agents around froze as if their necks were being gripped, gasping for breath.

The strongest among them was only at the third stage of the Qi Sea Realm.

And they were considered veteran agents.

The new recruits, meanwhile, only possessed cultivation at the seventh or eighth stage of the Meridian Opening Realm.

The sixth stage of the Qi Sea Realm was an absolute crushing superiority.

Most importantly, this was just a teenager!!!

He didn't even look twenty years old, so how could he possess cultivation at the sixth stage of the Qi Sea Realm!?

Sun Ming remained nonchalant, his expression as calm as ever.

"Alright, let's just skip to the second warning."

"I'd like to see if your director will protect you after you dare to make a move here..."

Before he could finish speaking, Chu Sheng moved.

A terrifying surge of energy exploded outwards. He threw a punch, and the air instantly detonated with a thunderous boom.

BOOM—

The instant Sun Ming's pupils constricted, his entire body was sent flying like a cannonball, slamming heavily into the counter behind him.

The counter shattered with a resounding crash, sending wood splinters and broken glass flying in all directions.

Amidst the thunderous explosion of qi, the crisp sound of bones breaking was clearly audible.

After smashing through several counters, Sun Ming's body was contorted at an unnatural angle. He struggled to even draw a breath.

"..."

The air was dead silent.

Not only the agents of Wind Chasing Hall but even Gao Qiang, known for his boldness, was stunned on the spot.

He hadn't expected Chu Sheng to make a move.

It was normal for a young master backed by the Long Family to be arrogant and overbearing.

But he never dreamed Chu Sheng would go for a kill right from the start!

This was Wind Chasing Hall! A government department!

They weren't criminals; they were agents of Wind Chasing Hall!

Sun Ming lay on the ground, spitting up blood uncontrollably.

Seeing Chu Sheng approach, he instinctively curled up, constantly backing away.

Chu Sheng let out a scoff.

"See, you don't like it when I actually make a move."

"Will you still act tough next time?"

[Disciplined a Wind Chasing Hall agent for obstructing official duties]

[Justice Points +800]

The surrounding agents finally reacted and swarmed towards Chu Sheng.

However, despite their anger, they weren't completely blinded by rage.

The sixth stage of the Qi Sea Realm was beyond their capabilities.

But since this young man dared to make a move within Wind Chasing Hall, he absolutely could not leave here standing.

"You're dead! Our director won't let you off!"

"Do you know how serious the consequences are for assaulting someone in Wind Chasing Hall, kid?"

"No matter what background you have, no one can save you this time!"

Amidst the clamor, Director Xie Lian descended the stairs.

The commotion earlier had startled him.

Seeing so many people gathered there, Xie Lian asked sternly.

"What's going on!?"

"Director, this kid was causing trouble in our Wind Chasing Hall! He almost beat Sun Ming to death with one punch!"

"What!!?"

Xie Lian's aura surged. At this moment, he also saw Sun Ming, who was curled up on the ground.

"How dare you! Do you really think our Wind Chasing Hall is easy to bully!"

As Xie Lian approached, he was shocked by Chu Sheng's youth.

Compared to his subordinates.

He knew even better how strictly the Jingwu Bureau was regulated from above.

This young man absolutely couldn't have graduated from university.

So, did he get into the Jingwu Bureau through the back door!?

The thought of making a move was temporarily suppressed.

Suppressing his anger, Xie Lian spoke.

"Kid, I need you to give me an explanation."

"I can't be bothered to explain. You're not worthy of hearing it. You have three minutes to hand over the person I want, otherwise, you can forget about being the director of the Wind Chasing Hall!"

!!!

Xie Lian almost lost control and attacked midway, but after hearing Chu Sheng's last sentence, he was directly stunned.

"Who exactly are you!?"

Chu Sheng didn't speak, he just glanced at Gao Qiang.

Gao Qiang understood and leaned close to Xie Lian's ear, whispering about Chu Sheng's "identity."

Xie Lian's expression changed from anger to astonishment, and finally, he even started sweating coldly.

"Director, help me get revenge..."

Sun Ming was helped up, saying resentfully.

The next moment.

Slap—

Xie Lian slapped him across the face.

"How dare you!!!"

"It's your honor that Young Master Chu hit you!"

"You still want revenge!? What are you, trying to reach for the sky??"
