Reward Obtained: Divine Dragon Blood Essence

Lu Cang was nearby; this counted as helping Lin Xuan vent his anger.

The Demon Suppression Bureau's men immediately obeyed Lin Xuan's orders and surrounded Qin Luo.

Lin Xuan walked up to Qin Luo. "The day before yesterday, His Majesty decreed that princes who break the law are as guilty as commoners!"

"Ninth Prince, you murdered Chen Mo, grandson of the Valiant Martial Marquis, in the street. Many witnessed it with their own eyes; the evidence is conclusive. Today, the Demon Suppression Bureau will arrest you and bring you to justice!"

"If you resist, the Demon Suppression Bureau has the authority to suppress you by force!"

Lin Xuan spoke through gritted teeth. He desperately wanted Qin Luo to resist law enforcement, so the Demon Suppression Bureau's men could give Qin Luo a taste of being trampled beneath someone's feet.

Watching Lin Xuan's twisted expression and sensing his aura, Qin Luo smiled.

"Looks like you're truly crippled. You're only at the Sea-Opening Realm—how weak."

"How about I give you a chance?"

"Kneel and kowtow to me three times, and I might consider giving your Five-Elements Spirit Body back."

Boom! Lin Xuan felt as if he'd been struck by lightning, and his entire body trembled. The Five-Elements Spirit Body was destined to be the pain of his entire life.

Giving it back to him—the temptation was too great.

He yearned for his talent to return, yet reason told him Qin Luo was merely toying with him. Qin Luo wouldn't give it back.

"You only get one chance. Once it's gone, it's gone." Qin Luo smiled brightly at Lin Xuan, making him feel that Qin Luo was a devil at this moment.

His hard-won steady state of mind was now beginning to waver.

Through gritted teeth, he said, "Qin Luo, today the Demon Suppression Bureau has been ordered to arrest you and bring you to justice!"

"Immediately, at once, surrender without resistance. Otherwise, the Demon Suppression Bureau will suppress you on the spot!"

Qin Luo sneered, then suddenly shouted, "What?"

"You're going to kill me?"

"You've got some nerve! Murdering a prince is a crime punishable by the extermination of nine clans!"

"Die!"

Boom! Qin Luo's aura erupted, reaching its peak in an instant. The Azure Edge Sword flew forth, and Sword Intent emerged!

"Sword Intent Prototype?!" Lu Cang's expression changed at once.

A sword cultivator who'd comprehended Sword Intent possessed combat power that increased severalfold.

He never imagined Qin Luo would dare attack Lin Xuan so openly!

Once again, Qin Luo had shattered his estimation of the man's bottom line.

He was simply a madman! A madman through and through!

Still, everything should remain under the control of a Saint Realm expert like him.

"Taixu Bell, come forth!"

"Soul-Binding Rope, bind!"

"Soul-Beating Whip, strike!"

Qin Luo gritted his teeth. He only needed to buy a single breath of time!

The Taixu Bell flew out and descended into the air, ringing heavily.

Boom! The force of a soul attack crashed into Lu Cang.

The Soul-Binding Rope instantly tied Lu Cang's hands and feet, but he broke free in a flash.

The Soul-Beating Whip lashed viciously across him, throwing his soul into turmoil.

He'd bought that single breath of time!

Qin Luo's sword had already reached Lin Xuan.

"Qin Luo, how dare you?!" Lu Cang cried, his eyes splitting with rage.

Lin Xuan unleashed every method he had, but having lost his status as the Child of Fortune, his combat power had fallen by far more than half. Nearly eighty or ninety percent of his strength was gone!

Pfft! Before Lin Xuan's disbelieving eyes, Qin Luo's sword pierced his chest. At the same time, Qin Luo snatched the spatial ring from his finger.

Any protagonist ought to have some good things on him, right? Those things also contained tremendous opportunities.

Lin Xuan's eyes widened. He couldn't believe Qin Luo would kill him here, at this time, in this place.

This wasn't scientific. It made no sense at all!

Boom! A powerful force smashed into Qin Luo, sending him flying backward.

Bang! Qin Luo hit the ground, then immediately rose to his feet and berated Lu Cang. "Commander Lu, are you also Lin Xuan's accomplice, plotting to murder a prince?"

Lu Cang swept Qin Luo with an icy gaze, then immediately poured the energy within him into Lin Xuan's body, attempting to awaken even a shred of life within him.

But he couldn't. He truly couldn't!

Lin Xuan's life force had already been severed. His head tilted to one side, and he died.

[Killed a Child of Fortune. Reward obtained: Divine Dragon Blood Essence *1 drop]
[It contains immense life energy and can transform a person completely, making them an unparalleled genius]

Could a single drop of so-called Divine Dragon Blood Essence really be that incredible?

Still, anything tainted by the word divine was enough to defy the heavens.

Lu Cang's chest heaved violently. Lin Xuan was someone he valued greatly, and there were even deeper reasons behind it. Lin Xuan couldn't die.

But now, Lin Xuan was dead.

He had died just like that, right before Lu Cang's eyes. Lu Cang had no way to answer to certain people, nor could he answer to himself.

He looked at Qin Luo with a savage expression. At this moment, he truly wanted to strike and suppress Qin Luo on the spot.

But he didn't dare. Lu Cang had a wife, children, elders, and an enormous Lineage. If he dared do this, tomorrow would be the end of his Lineage.

"The Ninth Prince publicly slandered us and killed an officer of my Demon Suppression Bureau. The Demon Suppression Bureau will not let this matter rest!"

"Men, take the Ninth Prince to the Demon Suppression Bureau! Princes who break the law are as guilty as commoners! Today, his crimes shall be punished together!"

"Heh..." Qin Luo sneered. This time, he didn't resist. He obediently followed Lu Cang and the others to the Demon Suppression Bureau.

Killing Lin Xuan had already settled one of his concerns, and he'd even obtained a drop of Divine Dragon Blood Essence. Qin Luo was delighted.

He figured a drop of Divine Dragon Blood Essence might be enough to raise the Nine-Turn Golden Body Scripture to its second turn, right?

Sure enough, a man with a system had far too many opportunities.

Inside the Demon Suppression Bureau, three courts held a joint trial. Not only were officials from the Demon Suppression Bureau present, but the Court of Judicial Review, Ministry of Justice, Censorate, and other offices had also sent people to participate in Qin Luo's interrogation.

Su Qianchen naturally attended as well. The moment he saw blood on Qin Luo, Su Qianchen flew into a rage. A powerful Saint King Realm pressure rose from his body and blanketed Lu Cang and the others.

Thud! Everyone aside from Lu Cang dropped to their knees.

"Your Demon Suppression Bureau has some nerve, treating my grandson like this!"

"Do you take this old man for dead? Huh?!"

Boom! An aura like raging winds and towering waves swept toward Lu Cang, making him stagger.

"Pfft!" Lu Cang spat out a mouthful of blood before he felt somewhat better.

He immediately argued, "The Ninth Prince has no injuries on him! On the contrary, he killed a Hundred-Household Officer of my Demon Suppression Bureau and intended to resist law enforcement!"

Su Qianchen wasn't senile. The instant his fury erupted, he sensed that Qin Luo had no injuries.

But he was using this opportunity to make his presence known, to let the others understand that when interrogating Qin Luo, they had to consider his opinion!

What did it matter if Qin Luo had killed the grandson of a Saint King Realm expert?

As long as Qin Luo didn't admit it, no one could touch him today.

"Saint Su, please calm your anger. Our Demon Suppression Bureau will certainly handle this case impartially!" Chu Heng glanced at Lu Cang, knowing this wasn't the time to question him.

Lu Cang sensibly led the rest away, leaving only Qin Luo in the center of the hall.

Before Chu Heng could speak, Chen Zhanshan asked Qin Luo, "Did you kill my grandson?"

Qin Luo's lips curled slightly. He swept his gaze around the room, then said to Chen Zhanshan, "That's right. I killed him."
