Chapter 3: There are so many talented people here!

“Shangguan Qian Shi, Ji Qianhu, and that Zongqi surnamed Qin are clearly biased towards Xu Shan.”

“Privately killing a court criminal is a serious crime!”

“We are new here; if we let things slide, they will lead us by the nose.”

As soon as they exited Zhao Prison, Liu Feng, eager to impress Shangguan Yan'er, leaned in and whispered.

“Hmm?”

Hearing this, Shangguan Yan'er, her delicate brows tightly furrowed, turned her head and glared at him, saying, “Are you telling me how to do my job?”

“This subordinate wouldn’t dare!”

“This subordinate just thinks…”

This time, before Liu Feng could finish his sentence, Shangguan Yan'er pointed at him and said, “Put away your arrogance and rudeness.”

“Although the Zhenfu Division has connections, strength is still paramount.”

“The fact that Xu Shan can get the entire Hangzhou Jinyiwei, from top to bottom, to unanimously protect him, shows he has extraordinary qualities.”

“Liu Feng, your father is still a fourth-rank junior minister of the Ministry of Rites. If this matter were you…”

“How many people in the Zhenfu Division would protect you?”

Shangguan Yan'er’s blunt words truly left Liu Feng speechless.

His face extremely grim, he poured all his energy into the task as they rushed to the crime scene, vowing to make a splash and dazzle everyone!

Inside the dungeon!

Xu Shan, who even had his own exclusive cell here, hadn't even warmed his straw mat when Qin Changdong, who had rushed over in a hurry, called him out again.

“Shan Ye, you got out pretty fast this time, huh?”

“The guys here were betting you’d be in for at least three to five days this time.”

“It hasn’t even been a quarter of an hour!”

“Shan Ye, take care!”

“Farewell, Shan Ye!”

When Xu Shan was released from prison, many inmates in the dungeon respectfully called out.

As a regular here, Xu Shan had become close with all of them.

And hearing this, Qin Changdong’s face turned dark.

“You little brat, you’re not a human outside, but you’ve become the big boss in here?”

“Heh heh!”

“Uncle Qin, let me tell you…”

“There are all sorts of talents in here!”

“Now I can pick a lock in just three breaths, steal your keys in one glance, and tell at a glance whether a girl wiggling her butt on the street is a virgin or a thousand-man slayer!”

“Wasn’t Hua Jieyu, with her pure appearance, caught by me just like that?”

“I… you…”

Hearing Xu Shan’s words, Qin Changdong raised his right hand in anger, then reluctantly put it down.

Then, grabbing his ear, he said, “This time, Ji Qianhu personally interceded for you, and Shangguan Qian Shi made an exception.”

“Show some real skill.”

“Huh? What case?” Xu Shan asked in surprise.

“Zongbing Ma Xing of Hangzhou and his concubine Zhang Yue'e died in their home.”

“Ma Xing? If I recall correctly, he was a fifth-grade innate master, wasn’t he?” As he said this, Xu Shan’s eyes gleamed!

One must know, the stronger the victim, the higher his gain.

“He should also be involved in other cases; otherwise, Shangguan Qian Shi wouldn’t have made such a big fuss.”

“Remember, just focus on investigating the case, don’t try to be a lone hero.”

“Someone who can kill a fifth-grade innate master can kill you and me like it’s nothing.”

After he finished speaking, Xu Shan pouted, not daring to argue anymore!

When they arrived at the Ma residence, the Jinyiwei had already cordoned off the area.

Xu Shan, heading straight for the crime scene, was led by Qin Changdong and actively sought instructions from Shangguan Yan'er.

Hmm, not bad at all…

This woman is really attractive.

Just don't know what her price is.

Xu Shan, muttering to himself, turned and walked towards the two corpses.

At this moment, Liu Feng, who was examining the crime scene, deliberately approached and said coldly, “You’re Xu Shan, right?”

“I hope you live up to the unanimous protection from the entire Hangzhou Zhenfu Division.”

“Don’t end up being a joke.”

“Ah?”

Faced with this sudden cold sarcasm, Xu Shan was completely bewildered.

Shangguan Yan'er and Ji Gang, not far away, glanced at this fellow.

Qin Changdong, beside him, nudged Xu Shan, signaling him to get to work and ignore the other party.

“Uncle, side characters who like to draw so much hatred usually don’t survive past the prologue.”

“Do you believe me?”

“Get to work!”

Shrugging his shoulders, Xu Shan squatted beside Ma Xing’s corpse.

As soon as he entered the room, he caught sight of the faint yellow light above the victim’s head.

It’s good to have a dying wish!

As he muttered this, Xu Shan examined the corpse while activating his Telepathy ability!

AI imaging, blue light, high definition!

And it was from Ma Xing's first-person perspective.

‘Hiss! Hiss!’

“Is it that intense? No mosaic at all?”

As soon as the imaging began, the swaying Ma Xing stumbled back several steps.

He managed to steady the camera only after his body hit the wall.

Immediately after, Xu Shan, through his perspective, saw Zhang Yue'e standing opposite him, disheveled.

Beside her was a handsome, white-haired man.

“You, you two dogs and bitches, how despicable!”

“You actually applied Ten Fragrance Soft Muscle Powder to your bodies…”

“Hehe!”

Hearing this, Zhang Yue'e, showing off her graceful figure in front of Ma Xing again, let out a piercing laugh.

“Who told master to like kissing me here, here, and here?”

As she spoke, Zhang Yue'e provocatively pointed at various parts of her body.

Holy cow!

What a poisoned milk!

Applying Ten Fragrance Soft Muscle Powder to a woman’s body.

Using a man’s base desires to silently poison Ma Xing.

This method is brilliant!

“Zongbing Ma, you are usually so cautious. If I, this protector, didn’t use some tricks, how could I make you willingly fall victim to the poison?”

“What if you are a fifth-grade innate master?”

“Tonight, aren’t you still dying by my, Liu Yaozhi’s, hand?”

Hearing this, Ma Xing exclaimed in shock, “Liu Yaozhi, the white-haired demon?”

“If we fought one-on-one, I’d kill you!”

“Heh heh, although this venerable one only has the strength of a third-grade innate master, I have poisoned and killed Zongbing Ma, a fifth-grade innate master, haven’t I?”

‘Jie jie!’

After saying this, Liu Yaozhi let out an arrogant, sinister laugh.

“Liu Lang, why waste so much breath on him? Quickly kill him, and then take me away to live happily ever after.”

‘Pfft.’

No sooner had Zhang Yue'e finished speaking than Liu Yaozhi, holding a serrated short blade, directly pierced through her body from the back.

“Uh, Liu, Liu Lang, you…”

“Approaching you was merely to help this venerable one deal with Zongbing Ma.”

“Did you really think I would take you with me?”

‘Swish.’

As the words fell, Liu Yaozhi smoothly withdrew his saber.

In an instant, the overwhelmed Zhang Yue'e collapsed to the ground first.

After watching all this, Xu Shan couldn't help but mutter to himself, “Damn, pulling out is merciless!”

“A role model for our generation!”

‘Patta-ta.’

After dealing with Zhang Yue'e, Liu Yaozhi, moving swiftly, rushed directly in front of Ma Xing.

Without hesitation, he plunged his saber directly into the victim’s heart.

In his final moments, Ma Xing’s eyes were filled with Liu Yaozhi’s sinister face.

From his perspective, Xu Shan could even see the mole on the back of the other party’s neck clearly.

‘Ding dong!’

“Deceased Mission Issued—Ma Xing’s Dying Wish.”

“Mission Content: Slay the white-haired Liu Yaozhi!”

“Mission Reward: Thirty years of cultivation, Anti-Yin Yang Saber Technique!”

“Oh my, this mission seems like it can be completed along with Hua Jieyu’s.”
