Xinmeng Town, the Town General's Manor.

Song Judao was a little restless, listening to the great sounds outside that had subsided.

As a Blood Body expert, his powerful blood essence and bloodline power would spontaneously manifest a strange premonition at certain times.

That was a keen warning brought about by the body's subconscious, and at this moment, this premonition appeared again.

'It's absolutely impossible for there to be a problem. As long as I don't reveal any flaws, I will still be the Town General, an official military officer of the Shao Yin Kingdom. No one will inexplicably risk offending the Shao Yin Imperial Court to target me.'

He pondered in his heart the possible outcome outside. If Dongfang Ling and the others won, he would naturally be completely fine.

If another group of mysterious people won, what would happen to him depended on their decision and which camp they belonged to.

Standing up, Song Judao walked back and forth a few steps, feeling a little eager to see what was happening, but also worried about inviting disaster.

He walked out of the main hall and into the courtyard. In the large Town General's Manor, there were only a dozen people, and most of these people were on the outer layer, not allowed to enter the inner mansion at will.

This was also to prevent the leakage of secrets.

But at this moment, Song Judao inexplicably felt panicked.

*Ka-cha.*

Suddenly, there was a slight noise from the left side of the courtyard.

"Who!" Song Judao's eyes narrowed, staring at that side.

No answer, no response. He slowly walked closer to that side, vaguely feeling that the guards outside the wall were still from his own manor.

It was just that the guards' condition seemed a little off.

Song Judao's aura tensed up, and a ray of blood-essence red light slowly circulated in his palm, preparing.

He approached step by step, silently.

"You're afraid."

Suddenly, a voice came from outside.

Song Judao was stunned, and instantly wanted to attack, but strangely, he suddenly dissipated the blood essence on his body, his legs stabbing fiercely into the ground, smashing out two deep pits, fixed in place.

*Bang!*

Before he could react in his mind, his body honestly responded.

In that instant, in the shadows behind him, a figure rapidly flickered, emerged, and took shape.

A sword.

*Chi!!!*

A huge and terrifying force, with a single sword from behind, slashed his back open diagonally.

The huge bloody gash almost cut Song Judao in two.

But the powerful blood essence and physical strength resisted this sneak attack.

His sense of crisis erupted in his heart, and he quickly turned around, wanting to fight back.

But strangely, at this moment, he inexplicably felt that the wall skin in front of him had a beauty honed by time.

The philosophical patterns, the reasonably distributed colors, and the tempting and fresh textures all deeply attracted him...wanting...

*Chi!!*

Another sword, slashed again from the wound on his back.

Song Judao groaned, wanting to turn around to fight back, but that wall skin attracted him again...

...making it impossible for him to forget for a long time, as if as long as he turned his head to do other things, he would forever lose the wall skin in front of him.

That intoxicating wall skin...

*Chi!!*

The third sword.

Song Judao's entire body was finally completely cut off.

In a state of extreme speed, he tried to turn around twice in a row, but was forcibly attracted by a strange force, unable to break free.

In just half a second, Song Judao didn't even have time to unleash his Blood Body, and fell to the ground in despair...

He weakly fell to the ground, his eyes finally freed from that hateful wall skin, and he turned around with difficulty, looking behind him.

And what he saw was Wang Yichen, slowly shaking off the poisonous blood and dispersing the golden sword in his hand.

'How could it be...him...!?'' Song Judao's pupils shrank, unable to understand why it was him??

But...

*Ka-cha.*

Everything plunged into darkness, his consciousness completely disappeared, and his thoughts were frozen at this last moment.

Li Cheng Yi stood in the courtyard, looking at the Town General's corpse on the ground, with poisonous blood flowing from it.

'Weaker than the one just now, but continuous Flower Language control, even if it's only half a second, consumes too much.'

He rubbed his temples, feeling like his head was about to explode. The pain was like a tide, constantly drilling into his brain.

'Can't do this next time, it's better to just use it once, and go all out to kill at a critical moment. It would be much easier that way. Even the Balance Angel can be controlled for a few seconds, but here...'

In Earth Moon, the Feiyi Masters (Flying Instrument Masters) and modified people were inherently weak, relying entirely on modification and external objects for strength, so the control of Flower Language was always effective.

But when he got here, people here were strong in all aspects with no blind spots. Whether it was consciousness or body.

So the control of Flower Language was also extremely difficult.

This made Li Cheng Yi even more understand that the Evil Flower, perhaps, was originally designed and manufactured for auxiliary functions.

Enduring the nausea, he stepped forward and searched the Town General's body with his sword, finding nothing but an identity token.

Immediately, he took out the last firework, broke it, and threw it into the sky.

*Bang.*

The fireworks exploded, like blood-red flowers.

Li Cheng Yi quickly slapped his left shoulder, bit his tongue, and overflowed a trace of blood, smearing it on the corners of his mouth and chin.

Then he found a place and fell to the ground.

Before long, the garrison guards rushed to the scene, and the guards of the Town General's Manor also entered the courtyard.

Next, it was just official red tape.

Li Cheng Yi was familiar with the routine, quickly suppressed the situation with force, stated that he was seriously injured and that a highly skilled person was needed to oversee the situation, so he sent someone to Cangshi County for assistance.

The Shenwu Division (Divine Martial Division) and Xueshou Division (Blood Guard Division) over there quickly sent people, and after Li Cheng Yi generously used the Town General's Manor's money and resources to smooth things over, the newly appointed County Governor, who was also the previous Shenwu Division County Head, Fu Ran, quickly cooperated with him to finalize the nature of the case.

Then everyone began to search and divide the spoils.

Unexpectedly, some evidence that Song Judao wanted to defect to the enemy was actually found in the Town General's Manor.

In just two days, everyone had credit and benefits, and everyone who participated had a share, and there was no danger.

As a result, both the Shenwu Division and the County Governor's side had a good impression of Li Cheng Yi.

And the Xueshou Division side...

"Absurd!"

The Xueshou Division County Head Tang Yukun, who came to investigate, looked displeased and stood up from next to Song Judao's corpse.

"What two sides suffering losses and struggling to overcome the enemy while seriously injured? This kind of absurd statement can actually be brazenly written on the merit book? He, a mere True Qi martial artist, even if facing a seriously injured Blood Body expert, how can he possibly sneak attack and overcome the enemy? Does he really think Blood Body experts are all cabbages? Even if seriously injured, it's not something he can deal with!"

"Sir, this merit has already been written... Are you saying...?" Ding Han, the Deputy County Head of the Xueshou Division next to him, squinted at this side.

"He's just a Divine Martial Division Deputy County Head who just climbed up, a commoner who got to his position through some disgraceful means, what qualifications does he have to take such a great first credit?" Tang Yukun said coldly, "If it weren't for us suppressing the surrounding ghostly forces, would he have such an opportunity to seriously injure and overcome the enemy? I'm afraid he would have been beaten to death before he even got close to the person."

"Sir is right, such a great achievement should be the result of the joint efforts of our Blood Guard Division. A mere True Qi martial artist is simply impossible to have the ability to create such a situation." Deputy County Head Ding Han nodded in agreement.

The Tang family and the Ding family had been operating in Cangshi County for many years. When they encountered such a rare great achievement, how could they allow a Divine Martial Division Deputy County Head with no foundation to take the lion's share?

How could dividing more benefits compare to taking it all themselves after being promoted?

So, under the two people's joint effort, the nature of the merit was quickly determined.

At this time, the people from the Divine Martial Division were outside cooperating to check the surrounding traces, trying to collect more evidence.

Tang Yukun and the others discussed it briefly and made a plan, and then prepared to go out and leave.

*Ka-cha.*

The door opened.

The two suddenly paused, their eyes narrowed, staring at the door.

Outside the dark red threshold, next to the stone lion on the left, stood a man wearing a white robe and a blue close-fitting suit, with a saber.

Wang Yichen!

He was actually waiting in front of the door.

As if discovering that the two were going out, Wang Yichen turned slightly, his eyes unreservedly falling on County Head Tang Yukun's face.

As a subordinate, few people would be so impolite as to look directly at their superiors.

But at this moment, Wang Yichen did so.

There was no reason, and it was very abrupt.

"Two sirs, there may still be Blood Body remnants nearby, please be careful on your way back." Li Cheng Yi whispered.

Tang Yukun frowned as he looked at him, feeling that there was something implied in the other party's words.

Just as he was about to reply, the traces of the wounds he had just examined suddenly flashed through his mind.

Song Judao's fatal wounds were three sword-shaped slashes from behind, and the fatal wounds of the Blood Body expert outside the town were also... sword-shaped slashes from behind...

Sneak attack? Internal strife?

No... A possibility instantly came to his mind, a possibility that made his whole body instantly turn cold.

"This case..." Tang Yukun paused, "Our Blood Guard Division will cooperate with the County Governor's side to handle it."

Ding Han on the side was a little puzzled, this seemed a little different from what had been agreed upon before.

But out of trust in Tang Yukun, he didn't speak, just waited on the side.

"Sir is wise." Li Cheng Yi took a deep look at him, smiled, and turned to leave.

There's no such thing as getting paid for doing nothing.

Just now, he had already had the idea of ​​changing his superior. Anyway, he had experience. Dealing with this kind of Blood Body martial artist, as long as he took advantage of the fact that they hadn't unleashed their Blood Body and launched a sneak attack, he could save a lot of effort.

It was just that these martial artists' blood essence and bodies were a bit tough. With his strength, a sudden attack and an instant burst of killing power still required two to three times to completely kill one person.

After Li Cheng Yi left, Ding Han looked at Tang Yukun with a puzzled look.

"This person, behind him, may still have a master..." Tang Yukun said in a deep voice.

"You mean..."

"." Tang Yukun struggled a little. Such a great achievement... once he gave it up, he probably wouldn't know how many years it would take to wait for it again.

"It's strange to say, such a big thing, and the previous nest being discovered, were all encountered by this newly appointed Deputy County Head. He does have good luck." Ding Han whispered on the side.

Luck?

Tang Yukun instantly reacted.

Yes?

Why did all these things break out just after this Wang Yichen came up?

Why did everyone follow him? Didn't these things exist before?

Tang Yukun instantly felt a chill in his heart. Combining it with the cause of death of the two Blood Bodies, he suppressed the greed in his heart.

"Go! This matter is over, fully cooperate with them to close the case."

".!?" Ding Han looked at him inexplicably.

"There's not so much luck in this world..." Tang Yukun left these words and turned to leave.

Leaving Ding Han with a frown.

Being able to mix in the imperial court for so many years without having the side effects of the Blood Body, the two naturally had their own ways of restraint. At this time, being pointed out by his superior, Ding Han quickly understood the meaning.

That merit was too great, so much so that it had blinded his vision before, but now that it was opened, he finally felt a trace of wrongness hidden in it.

'Just because of a trace of wrongness, I'm giving up such a great opportunity...' Ding Han struggled a bit.

But after hesitating in place for a while, his trust in Tang Yukun prevailed.

In the end, he still gave up the plan to snatch the merit.

After all, this great merit came a bit too strangely...

The Town General betrayed, had internal strife with the foreign enemy, resulting in being seriously injured and dying, and was then sneak attacked and killed by the Divine Martial Division Deputy County Head after being seriously injured. The two seriously injured people were killed, and then the authorities were reported, and the Divine Martial Division and Blood Guard Division experts were dispatched to wipe out the rest, reaping the benefits.

This major case was not publicized to the outside world because it damaged the imperial court's image.

But the merits were truly reported, regardless of how Wang Yichen was witty, resourceful, and reversed the situation to kill a group of seriously injured Blood Seed martial artists and infected people with difficulty.

Anyway, he made it in the end, and made great contributions. Everyone also had a share of the merits.

So the case was settled with lightning speed in two days.
