side, rolling on the ground and kowtowing with all his might: "Please... please spare my life, Young Master Ling...""I... I'll go to the community early tomorrow morning and return all the money to t...[]>

You and Xuan Pang should go to Jiang Hai together and have the Yan family hand over those members of several families that Yan Junmin confessed.

Ling Hao pondered for a moment before continuing, "Also, find out the location of Xiyun Merchant Guild's hideout in Daxia!"

"Got it!" Xuanpang responded, then continued.

"Brother, in my opinion, we should just wipe out the Yan family completely. They're a bunch of ungrateful scoundrels!"

"Just do as I said!" Ling Hao waved his hand, then spoke in a thoughtful tone: "This city of Jiang Hai needs a good overhaul!"

"Got it!" Both nodded at the same time.

"Big brother, what if the Yan family doesn't cooperate" The judge asked another question.

"Obstructing the investigation of the Shadow Gate case, considered as one of our own!" Ling Hao's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Yes, sir!" The two nodded and then turned to leave.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Ling Hao received a call from the Judge of Hell.

On the phone, the judge informed me that surprisingly, the Jiang Hai Yan family was very cooperative and proactively handed over those people.

This result was already within Ling Hao's expectations.

It's clear that someone has tipped off the Yan family. If they don't cooperate, the Yan family will likely suffer more than just losing these few people!

The judge also informed him that the Xiyun Merchant Guild's lair in Daxia was in Jianghai, but when he arrived with his men, it was deserted.

Time flies, it's been half a month already.

Lu Yue and Qinglong have officially taken over the East District War Department. The first thing they did after taking office was to reorganize the team, purging corruption.

Furthermore, according to Ling Hao's arrangement, the white tiger officially stepped into the starry sky of the Dark Domain world!

Following him were, besides his four lieutenants and the sons of the Blood Guard's Tenth Squad, a thousand Blood Shadow Warriors he had personally selected.

Ling Hao gave him three tasks.

One is to unite the Blood Rakshasa and quickly build a steel battle squad in the Dark Domain.

The second is to get a full understanding of the forces in each sector of the dark web, especially to figure out which countries are backing each force.

Thirdly, it is important to understand the details of the Dark Domain Temple and what kind of organization it truly is.

Before leaving, Ling Hao helped him improve his cultivation to the later stage of War Venerable Great Accomplishment, only one step away from the peak of War Venerable.

Though his skill isn't yet enough to rule the Dark Realm, he should be able to accomplish something with it. Besides, his four lieutenants are all at the late stage of War God realm.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that the five blades of Shadow Gate have been frantically cultivating as if possessed lately.

Heaven rewards diligence, all five people broke through one after another.

The three of Cang Lang, Han Yue, and Ye Ji officially broke through to become true cultivators. The Judge made a breakthrough to the half-step War Sovereign realm, while Soulchaser didn't lag behind, reaching the peak of the War God Realm.

And Xuan Pang, with Ling Hao's help, also successfully broke through to the peak of the War Venerable.

With his current skills and incredible medical and poisonous arts, even if he faced a martial arts master at the early stage of transformation, he should be able to remain undefeated.

Jingle bells!

That morning, shortly after Ling Hao and Xuan Pang sent RuiRui to school, a stranger called Ling Hao's phone.

"Who is it" Ling Hao asked when he answered the phone.

"Young Master Ling, I'm Tang Lin!" A hurried voice came from the speaker.

"Elder Lin What happened" Ling Hao's mind flashed the image of the old man beside Shen Le, and his heart sank.

"The young master is gone!" Tang Lin paused for a moment before continuing.

"I went out to run errands yesterday and didn't return to the villa at night. This morning, I went to pick up the young master to go to work. When we got back to the villa, I couldn't find the young master."

I called him on his cell phone, but it was switched off. I later asked the company secretary and she said the young master didn't come to the company today.

"I thought Young Master might have turned off his phone on the plane, so I asked someone to check today's Jiang Hai flight information. There was no record of Young Master boarding."

"Until now, the young master's phone is still switched off!"

"Hmm" Ling Hao's body emanated a chill. "Is there anything unusual in the villa"

"No!" Tang Lin responded. "My house is tidy and organized. I estimate that the Young Master probably didn't go home last night."

"Apart from you, is there anyone else who usually follows Shen Le around" Ling Hao continued to ask.

"There are two people, but when I called them, both phones were off." Tang Lin replied.

"Do you know what he did last night" Ling Hao frowned and asked again.

"He should have been hosting guests at the Tianyu Hotel last night," Tang Lin replied.

"I understand. You continue to look for him in the places he frequents. Give me a call if you find anything." Ling Hao instructed.

"Okay!" Tang Lin responded and then hung up the phone.

"Big brother, is something wrong" Xuan Pang asked when Ling Hao hung up the phone.

"Shen Le might be in trouble!" Ling Hao frowned slightly and then recounted Tang Lin's words.

"Huh Made by the Four Great Families" Xuan Pang was slightly taken aback.

"That's possible, but I'm not entirely sure." Ling Hao shook his head.

After a moment of thought, he took out his phone and sent Qin Yuxin a message, telling her that he might be in Jianghai for a few days.

Then, I called the judge and gave him a brief rundown of the situation before asking him to come meet us.

He was very clear that Shen Yue's disappearance was obviously not that simple, and he needed to go to Jianghai himself.

Besides, Jiang Hai really should be straightened out. First there was the Sakura Merchant Association, now there's the Xiyun Merchant Association, and next time who knows what other kind of association will pop up.

Jiang Hai is one of the important towns in the Great Xia Kingdom. Such petty scoundrels are not allowed to cause chaos here!

Twenty minutes later, the judge arrived.

Xuan Pang slammed his foot on the accelerator, and the Land Rover sped off towards Jiang Hai.

"Big brother, does anyone in Jiang Hai know about your relationship with Shen Fatty" After the car drove out, Pan Guan looked at Ling Hao and asked.

"What I mean is, could it be that the Yan family or the Wu family know about your relationship with Shen Le, and since they can't get to you, they're taking it out on him"

Besides Miss Pan, who might have a slight suspicion, the others probably don't know much about it," Ling Hao replied after a moment of thought.

"Isn't that the one you saw at the Cosmic Heart exhibition last time" the judge asked.

"Hmm!" Ling Hao nodded. "However, that woman is a smart person, she shouldn't spread this around."

After finishing, he continued to explain.

"Give Lu Tao a call and ask him to pull up the surveillance footage from last night at Tianyu Hotel and the surrounding roads. See if we can find any clues."

"Big brother, after you called me just now, I've already made arrangements, and there should be results soon." The judge replied.

Ring ring!

Before his words left his mouth, his phone rang.

"Lu Tao, how is it Have you found anything" The judge asked after answering the phone.with ease. Every towering trunk it passed was split in two, leaves swirling and filling the air, blotting out the sun. Dust and debris kicked up by the powerful force formed a swirling vortex, its pow...
