Not long ago.
In a messy alley, Wu Yiyu left an inconspicuous mark on a corner of a wall.
The mark was shaped like a tree branch. At first glance, it seemed to be a scratch left behind by someone inadvertently. Or perhaps it was a mark left behind by the wind and rain.
A slender figure wrapped in a black robe passed by the alley. His footsteps were light. When he passed by the mark, he did not stop at all.
But the person walked around a few times with ease and naturally passed by the small courtyard where Wu Yiyu lived.
Of course, he felt the subtle fluctuations of the battle from afar.
He did not observe, was not curious, and did not stop.
This person walked straight past.
It was as if he had nothing to do with all of this and did not care about all of this.
But not long after.
Green lines of fire suddenly burned on the inconspicuous mark in the corner of the alley.
The demonic green fire instantly burned through the entire mark!
At the same time, Wu Yiyu, who was in the courtyard, was suddenly controlled by an indescribable emotion.
It was resentment, unwillingness, fear, and the aggregation of many negative emotions.
This gave him a strong urge to self-destruct, making him not want to live anymore.
He wanted to die!
He really wanted to die!
At this moment, the scenes of his life did not replay in his mind.
He just suddenly remembered something, something very boring.
That was a long time ago …
That old man, what did he say? It was better to be stupid.
He said that a doctor only wanted to heal. Wealth and glory were not what he wanted.
He said that his life depended on these two words, on these two people.
It was completely baffling.
What was he talking about?
I really want to die …
The impulse in his heart suddenly surged with strength, allowing him, who was originally shackled, to break free from his hands.
That feeling …
It was clearly only a short period of time, but it had been a long time since he had freedom!
Freedom!
He shouted in his heart.
Then, his hands strangled themselves. Before Jiang Wang could react, he died on the spot.
"This!" Chongxuan was inexplicably terrified. He looked around. "What's going on?"
As he spoke, he could not help but move closer to Jiang Wang. In such an unknown and terrifying moment, it was safer to be by the side of a strong person.
Jiang Wang pressed his hand on the long sword, but did not speak.
In that moment, he felt a familiar fluctuation of power.
The power of spells.
'It's Yin Guan, there's no mistake …'
This person's current strength was so strong that he could easily curse and kill an Outer Sect cultivator without being present at all!
Although Wu Yiyu was bound and lost the ability to resist, although he might have been affected by Yin Guan's curse technique power, it was still shocking.
Compared to the last time they parted, he had become even more powerful.
As expected of a powerhouse who had turned a narrow and winding path into a path to heaven.
How fast was his progress?
Wu Yiyu did not know what kind of mysteries the imprint that had always connected him to the Gates of Hell possessed.
The power of King Qinguang's curse had already affected him.
He thought that after he returned to Qi, he would be able to betray Hell at will. He even immediately thought of using the Coroner King's address in the offshore islands as a bargaining chip.
But everything returned to an illusory state, dead silence.
The black-robed man who walked through the alley was "Brat." He was a person in charge of foreign affairs who had been active in the offshore islands recently. After she informed Yin Guan in some way that Wu Yiyu had been captured, Yin Guan directly cast a curse to kill him in an unknown place!
This terrifying scene stunned Chongxuan Xin. Even Jiang Wang, who had guessed the inside story, was secretly shocked.
But Lin Youxie's eyes lit up. "Wu Yiyu must know some secret. Otherwise, the Gates of Hell would not want to kill him!"
She even seemed very excited. "He was fine in Qi, but something happened here. This means that the secret he knows is in the offshore islands. What is it? "
Chongxuan Xin glanced at her with some fear. He only felt that this woman was a little crazy! A cultivator of the Soaring Dragon Realm was relentlessly pursuing the infamous Hell's Gate.
"Brother Jiang, what should we do now?" He asked Jiang Wang.
He hoped that Jiang Wang would quickly decide to leave.
This place felt too dangerous, as if they could be controlled to "commit suicide" at any time.
They had to quickly leave this crazy woman who was looking for death.
But before Jiang Wang could speak, Lin Youxie had already looked over.
"Lord Jiang! Very good news! "
She said seriously, "We don't know what secret the Gates of Hell has in the offshore islands, but one thing is certain. For the Gates of Hell to kill Wu Yiyu to silence him, they need at least one King of Hell to guard this place!"
"What do you think?"
She seemed to have an innate passion for investigating and arresting criminals. Her entire person became radiant. "Do you want to come with me to ferret out that big rat? After we ferret it out, I believe that the inspector's office will give a reward that is worthy of a King of Hell! It will also give you a chance to get the third-rank Blue Medal earlier. "
"This rat is indeed big, but unfortunately, it's too big."
Jiang Wang politely declined. "I'm not interested. Besides, I have something to do myself."
Lin Youxie paused for a moment, as if she had just remembered the purpose of Jiang Wang's trip. So she smiled. "Okay, I won't force you."
Jiang Wang cautiously checked the shackles. After confirming that there were no problems, he put them away.
Since the first time he explored the Cloud Top Immortal Palace, one of the shackles had been dispelled by the word "Dao thief". Until now, he had only managed to repair two shackles. He didn't know when he would truly have the power of the ten great shackles of Legalism.
The shackles swam into the void, leaving only Wu Yiyu's corpse lying there.
Jiang Wang thought for a moment, then said, "Constable Lin, although it's necessary to eradicate evil, one must know that there are times when one's strength is limited. Please take care of yourself. "
Lin Youxie tilted her head, as if she was very surprised that Jiang Wang would say such a thing. After being pestered and suspected so many times, even if he didn't hate her to death, he should detest her to the extreme.
"Then, Lord Jiang, I'll also give you a piece of advice."
She thought for a moment, then said, "Although I did catch the culprit in the Fengxian County case, there are still problems that haven't been solved. I've seen too many generations of Blue Medal. No one would believe it. But at that time, I inexplicably believed Zhang Yong and didn't suspect her for a long time. There must be something wrong with this person. Although no one investigated it anymore and the case was dropped, I was the one who handled it. But that's my case, so I have to investigate it to the end. "
She looked at Jiang Wang. "I'm now sure that you're not on the same side as him. But you're Qi's man from Qingyang Town. You're a fourth-rank Blue Medal constable. Qi treats you well. In the future, I hope you'll think carefully and be careful with your words and actions. "
He didn't know what method she used to confirm that Jiang Wang and Zhang Yong were not on the same side. But it had to do with the observation she had been following and pestering him these past few days.
Jiang Wang suddenly thought of his inexplicable sense of familiarity with Zhang Yong, as well as his own inexplicable soft-heartedness on Mount Yunwu.
Could it be that he was also on the wrong path?
It shouldn't be. Firstly, Zhang Yong was only in the Soaring Dragon Realm at that time, so there was no reason for him to use divine powers. Secondly, if he could really grasp a divine power like the wrong path, he shouldn't have lost to Jiang Wang in battle.
He thought a lot in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.
After all, he and Lin Youxie didn't know each other well, so there was no need to talk too much.
In the end, Jiang Wang only cupped his hands. "Then, I'll take my leave."
