"Your Excellencies! I truly don't know what happened!"

Zhao Yong was on the verge of tears, his face a mask of misery.

This morning, he'd caved under his colleague Xiao Lan's flirtatious advances and agreed to help her inspect the residential community's facilities.

However, when he got to this particular apartment, he found the door wasn't closed, just ajar.

At the same time, a faint stench wafted out.

This made him instinctively open the door, and what greeted his eyes...

"Why are you the one reporting both incidents?"

Li Yingxue looked at Zhao Yong suspiciously.

He had reported both murder cases they'd handled in the past few days, which made her question things.

Feeling Li Yingxue's gaze, Zhao Yong felt like crying but had no tears.

"I actually want to ask that question too!"

Just two days ago, he'd seen a Blood Person lying on the road, and today he found a mother and son dead in their home.

He seriously suspected he was being haunted by something lately.

Otherwise, why would he keep encountering such things?

It seemed he needed to find time to invite Fúshēng Wúliàng Tiānzūn to ward off evil spirits!

After giving Zhao Yong a deep look, Li Yingxue finally made her judgment.

This guy being the reporter for both incidents was indeed pure coincidence.

In Zhao Yong's eyes, these were just two ordinary murder cases, but in the Law Enforcement Bureau's view...

This could very well be the prelude to a joint effort between the Crimson Tide and the Myriad Spirits Holy Hall!

Otherwise, why would He Wu, a member of the Crimson Tide, and Li Yuan, from the Myriad Spirits Holy Hall, be married?

And even have a child?

That's right! The moment they saw Li Yuan's body, they immediately identified her.

It couldn't be helped; those two fox tails were too conspicuous!

They also confirmed He Wu's identity, knowing he was Li Yuan's husband.

This meant they had to overturn the Law Enforcement Bureau's previous hypothesis that some righteous individual had encountered He Wu, a member of the Crimson Tide, and killed him along the way.

Her entire family was murdered, and both her husband and she held such sensitive positions.

No matter how she looked at it, she felt this was an organized and premeditated act.

Otherwise, it would be too coincidental!

She didn't believe in such coincidences!

Li Yingxue's gaze swept around as she waved her hand.

Her subordinates immediately understood her intention and took Zhao Yong away.

Much of what followed was not for Zhao Wu to hear.

Hearing it would only bring him harm and no benefit.

Li Yingxue slowly crouched down, rummaged through Li Yuan's body a few times, and then looked at He Yi, who was also lying on the ground.

Images automatically played out in her mind.

He Yi went to open the door, his neck was grabbed and crushed by the killer's hand, then the killer approached Li Yuan at extreme speed and sent her flying with a punch.

Li Yingxue looked at the bloodstains dragged across the floor and then at the black blood on Li Yuan's tail, which had long since congealed.

She immediately made a judgment!

Li Yuan had a brief conversation with the killer before she died, and then was killed with a single blow.

As for the content of the conversation, Li Yingxue could guess.

Li Yuan's half-open undergarments were enough to explain everything.

The killer did not hesitate at all...

Li Yingxue continued to try and reconstruct the scene in her mind.

After connecting all the clues, she reached a conclusion:

The killer was either male or female!

Alright, that was a bit of a redundant statement!

For these two cases, the killer's identity was not important.

What was important was whether the Crimson Tide and the Myriad Spirits Holy Hall had indeed joined forces as they suspected.

If they had truly joined forces...

If you can't find the book by its title, you can try searching for the author, perhaps the title was just changed!

That would be a huge trouble for them!

But it shouldn't be possible!

As far as she knew, the Crimson Tide and the Myriad Spirits Holy Hall had a very bad relationship!

The Crimson Tide members' penchant for slaughter wasn't just limited to humans; Fierce Beasts were also their targets.

So what exactly was going on?

Li Yingxue couldn't figure it out, and she didn't plan to think about it too much.

If the sky falls, the tall ones will hold it up. She would report these two cases to the Director of the Muyang City Law Enforcement Bureau and let him deal with the headache!

Thinking this, Li Yingxue instructed those around her to clean up the scene before walking towards the door. However, just as she was about to step out, she suddenly paused.

She turned to a young man and said:

"Zhou Yuan! Go investigate if this family has had any conflicts with anyone recently!"

Time quickly passed, and it was evening.

As the door of the Gravity Room opened, Qin Chen slowly walked out.

His face was visibly exhausted, and his entire spirit seemed to have been drained by more than half.

Tired! So tired!!

Ten hours of high-intensity training, coupled with being under high gravity multipliers the entire time, was truly arduous.

If it weren't for the Seven Injuries Fist constantly sustaining him, he would have given up long ago.

But even though he was so tired, a faint smile always lingered on Qin Chen's lips.

The results of this training made him feel that all the hardship he endured was worth it.

After his breakthrough, he had covered a significant distance on the path to the Body Tempering Fourth Layer.

Although the peak was still a distant prospect, it was enough to make him happy.

If he had relied on normal cultivation, it would have taken at least three times longer.

Thinking of this, Qin Chen couldn't help but sigh.

"The usage time for this Gravity Room is a bit short!"

For others, they would come out of the Gravity Room after an hour or two because their bodies couldn't withstand the prolonged pressure of gravity.

Once they exceeded their limit, instead of improving their strength, their bodies would be injured.

But Qin Chen had no such concerns.

For him, mental fatigue was the biggest limiting factor.

His body, on the other hand, was fine.

So, ten hours of cultivation time per month was still too little for him.

However...

This was only temporary!

The school was making such a big move this time, setting up an Elite Class with an all-grade battle. If the rewards weren't enough, wouldn't that be too unreasonable?

If he could use the Gravity Room without restriction...

A sharp glint flashed in Qin Chen's eyes.

His speed in breaking through to the Spirit Vein Realm would definitely accelerate greatly!

Alright, he would see the specific situation when the time came. Right now, he had something more important to do!

Eat!!

After midnight, Muyang City fell into a silent atmosphere.

Only a few people were still active.

In an unremarkable breakfast shop, darkness surrounded it.

Suddenly, a dim yellow candlelight lit up in the darkness.

The flickering flame seemed so helpless, wrapped in endless darkness.

A middle-aged man with a full beard sat on a chair next to the candlelight, propping his head with one hand, leaning on the table where the candlelight was placed.

His eyes were closed.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes, his gaze indifferent, and said calmly:

"You're here!"
