"Uh …"
Lin Youxie froze on the spot.
Even though she was quick-witted and knew how to get information, she didn't expect Jiang Wang to be so unreasonable and speak so coldly.
This kind of arrogance didn't match Jiang Wang's personality at all.
She didn't know how to continue.
"Brother Jiang!"
Fortunately, Zheng Shangming came back and broke her awkwardness.
"Constable Lin." Eldest Young Master Zheng glanced at Lin Youxie. "Are you familiar with Brother Jiang?"
"Sort of!" Lin Youxie said.
"Any results?" Jiang Wang asked directly.
"There are two suitable cases," Zheng Shangming said and took out two files to explain to Jiang Wang.
"This way." Jiang Wang grabbed him and walked to the corner.
He obviously wanted to avoid Lin Youxie.
Lin Youxie shrugged helplessly and could only watch them leave.
When the two walked to the corner, Zheng Shangming asked softly, "Is there any misunderstanding between you and Constable Lin?"
Just now, Jiang Wang didn't even bother to put on a show of face and directly avoided Lin Youxie's attack.
Jiang Wang looked at the case file and replied casually, "It's not really a misunderstanding. Maybe their personalities don't match."
He didn't want to talk about Lin Youxie's vague suspicions about him. If he said it, it would make him look guilty.
"I see." Zheng Shangming nodded. He paused for a moment, then couldn't help but remind him, "Constable Lin's family has several generations of youths, and their relationships in this yamen are tangled and complicated. Maybe you'll be able to talk to some retired big shot. If you have any dissatisfaction with her, just avoid her. It's not good to start a fight. Of course, I'm not saying you can't afford to offend her. It's just that everyone has to look forward. There's no need to. "
Zheng Shangming's words could be said to be sincerely considerate of Jiang Wang. He also cared a lot about Jiang Wang's face.
When they met again this time, Jiang Wang once again felt that Zheng Shangming had changed. It could be said that he had truly been reborn. This was enough to show how deep the humiliation Wang Yiwu had brought to him was.
At the same time, Zheng Shangming's words also explained why Lin Youxie, a mere Level Five Blue Medal Arrester in the Soaring Dragon Realm, dared to pester Jiang Wang again and again, regardless of Jiang Wang's threats.
Why did the God of Constable Yue Leng treat Lin Youxie differently? Why did he only bring Lin Youxie along when he interrogated the King of King Tai Shan?
Linzi was really too big, the waters too deep, dragons coiling and tigers crouching.
Even the son of the Northern Yamen's Commandant was very cautious around her. The Lin Family must have some powerful connections to be able to influence Lin Youxie.
Fortunately, Jiang Wang's rudeness was limited to words. He didn't do anything out of line.
However, being targeted by a Blue Medal Arrester with no background was completely different from being targeted by a Blue Medal Arrester with an impressive background.
"I'm not dissatisfied." Jiang Wang smiled bitterly and shook his head. "It's just that this Arrester Lin keeps talking to me about things that I'm not interested in. I'll just avoid him. "
Zheng Shangming fell into deep thought and didn't say anything else.
Of the two files, one was a complicated case with some obscure clues in the Offshore Islands.
There were broken silverware, cracks in the crime scene, and mysterious disappearances …
Jiang Wang felt a headache coming on as he looked at it, so he skipped over it.
The second mission was much simpler and more direct. It was to capture an Outer Realm criminal.
They only knew that this person was hiding in the Offshore Islands, but their exact whereabouts were unknown.
What piqued Jiang Wang's interest the most was that this person was an elder of the Golden Needle Cult.
In the Forest Ocean Origin Realm, the people who had traveled with Jiang Wang were Su Qiyun, who had disguised herself as a disciple of the Liangshanglou Sect, and Wu Quji, who was from the Golden Needle Cult.
Wu Quji was honest and straightforward, his intestines straight to the bottom. He had a very good personality. His medical skills and cultivation were also extraordinary. He was able to concoct the antidote for the Hidden Snake Poison in an extremely short amount of time.
Jiang Wang got along well with him, and they had agreed to keep in touch after leaving the Hidden Realm. However, he had been too busy and hadn't had the chance to do so.
This time, he had solved a case related to the Golden Needle Cult.
The Golden Needle Cult was located in Zhuhe County, east of Qi. It was also considered one of the border counties. It was adjacent to the Great Marsh County, but it was much smaller, about half the size.
This county was named after a plant that could be found everywhere within its borders, the "Zhuhe". The plant was red in color, and the more it matured, the redder it became. It was shaped like rice, and its grains were densely packed together.
Because it was produced in large quantities, it wasn't expensive. However, it could be used as both food and medicine. During the famine era, countless people survived, so it was also known as "Good He".
Wu Quji had told Jiang Wang that the founder of the Golden Needle Cult was expelled from the East King Valley because of his poor talent and difficulty in advancing. He had also offended someone.
After leaving the East King Valley, he wandered the world for a long time.
In the end, he settled down in Zhuhe County and found the meaning of life again.
He broke through the limitations of his talent and was inspired by the East King's 12 Needles. He created the Golden Needle Cult, which started the history of the Golden Needle Cult.
Wu Quji had once used the Golden Needle Weaving Bone and the Golden Needle Disease Locking, they were all techniques from the Adversity Surmounting Golden Needle, each with their own unique uses.
The Golden Needle Cult had been around for more than 200 years.
Wu Quji was the eldest direct disciple of the Golden Needle Cult, and his master was the second generation leader of the Golden Needle Cult.
The culprit this time was Wu Quji's martial uncle, the Elder of the Golden Needle Cult, Wu Yiyu.
The culprit murdered the leader of the Golden Needle Cult, Wu Yiyu, and stole the Golden Needle Cult's secret manual. He had already escaped from Qi.
The Golden Needle Cult had only two Outer Building experts. One was seriously injured and dying, while the other had escaped. They no longer had the strength to pursue the culprit, so they reported the case to the Zhuhe County Governor's Office.
However, since Wu Yiyu had already escaped from Qi, the Zhuhe County Governor's Office couldn't possibly go to the coastal islands to investigate the case. They also lacked the strength to do so, so they passed the case up. In the end, it accumulated in the capital's Inspection Office, where Zheng Shangming found it and brought it to Jiang Wang.
"This is it." After carefully reading the case, Jiang Wang patted the file and made a decision.
According to the information, Wu Yiyu was an Outer Building expert.
The difference in strength between an Inner House cultivator and an Outer House cultivator with Remarkable Powers was usually slightly weaker than an ordinary Outer House cultivator of a realm. If there were no new Remarkable Powers, the difference in strength between each realm would be widened.
This was because every Starlight Sacred Building could increase one's strength by a terrifying amount. Only an equally powerful Remarkable Power could close the gap.
If every Mansion could obtain a Remarkable Power, it could ensure that the gap wouldn't be widened.
Normally, the Four Mansions and Four Remarkable Powers cultivators were slightly weaker than ordinary Outer House cultivators of the Four Realms. However, the Heaven's Mansion cultivators were definitely stronger than ordinary Outer House cultivators.
Of course, this standard wasn't constant. With the development of the cultivation world, the Starlight Sacred Buildings of the various top forces were all on the same level. The gap in strength wouldn't be too big.
However, everyone's Remarkable Powers were different. Everyone's development of Remarkable Powers was also ever-changing. The resulting gap couldn't be accurately judged. It was like the difference between Heaven and Earth.
For example, Jiang Wang's True Samadhi Fire and Stray Path were both extremely powerful Remarkable Powers. If they were developed properly, it wouldn't be difficult for him to defeat ordinary Outer House cultivators of the Two Realms.
Another example was Li Fengyao. The Remarkable Powers she obtained from the First Mansion were beneficial to her cultivation. Of course, it was also extremely valuable. However, when used in battle, it might not be enough for her to defeat ordinary Outer House cultivators of the First Realm.
For the current Jiang Wang, an ordinary Outer House cultivator of the First Realm, Wu Yiyu, might not be a piece of cake, but he had a 70% to 80% chance of defeating him.
The remaining 30% or 30% would depend on how to find Wu Yiyu.
