deputy marshal for a while. This will be very beneficial for his future development.Moreover, the current situation in the East District is far more complex than that in the West District, which test...[ ]

"Find a place to settle her down, not here at the base, just find a nearby hotel." Ling Hao pointed at the little girl and spoke.

Since we are waiting for the other party to come to us, it's natural that we can't be at the Shadow Gate base. After all, not many people dare to come to the Shadow Gate headquarters to snatch people yet.

"Brother, who is she" The judge stammered and asked.

“I'm not sure yet!” Ling Hao shook his head and gave the Judge a rough outline of the situation.

"Hm!" Upon hearing Ling Hao's words, the Judge frowned: "There are still people practicing this sinister sorcery. It's truly unforgivable!"

After finishing, he let the two young guards take the little girl.

As Ling Hao estimated, someone came looking for them just before midnight.

The inn where the little girl stayed was about five kilometers from the Yingmen Base. The Judge had specially instructed to find a more secluded place and cleared all the guests from the inn.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Twenty or thirty men in black suits walked into the inn courtyard. At the head of the group was a young man, his features ordinary and nothing particularly remarkable about him.

"He should be in this hotel. Hurry, starting from the first floor, search every room one by one. Once you find him, evacuate immediately!"

A group of people arrived at the entrance hall, and a young man raised his hand.

"Received!" The crowd nodded and were about to rush toward the hall.

"Stop looking, I'll tell you which room," The Judge's voice sounded softly, followed by him strolling out of the hall.

"Huh!" The young man was taken aback, his pupils shrinking slightly: "Who are you"

A sense of unease arose in my heart. Judging by their posture, they were clearly waiting for me to come knocking!

"This one, you should answer me. Who are you" The judge said calmly, "Tell us, and we might leave your bodies whole."

"You're courting death!" The young man frowned.

"I advise you, this is not something you can handle. Give the little girl up, or you'll be in danger!"

Otherwise, even your family will be unlucky too, believe me, I'm not scaring you!

"So, you're not willing to say it yourself" The judge shrugged. "Then let's talk about it later!"

As his words fell, he raised his hand and waved: "Take them all down! Anyone who resists, kill!"

Phew! Phew! Phew!

At his command, a hundred young men from Yingmen poured out of the small courtyard, each wielding a cold, curved moon blade in their hands.

"Damn it!" The young man frowned and said in a low voice, "Kill!"

Wow!

Twenty or thirty men, without uttering a word, drew their swords from their waists and charged towards Yingmen'erlang.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

However, the military strength of both sides was not on the same level. Besides, there was a significant difference in numbers. In less than two minutes, everyone except the middle-aged man lay down, either dead or seriously injured.

"Who are you people" The young man's unease grew stronger.

“You talk too much!” The judge narrowed his eyes and with a flick of his wrist, drew his sword.

"Huh!" The young man immediately felt a thick sense of crisis, his pupils shrinking, and he quickly drew his sword to block.

Boom!

He only had the cultivation of a war general, so naturally he couldn't block the judge's sword. After the cold light passed, an arm was severed at the shoulder and fell to the ground, blood spurting wildly.

"Hmm," the man let out a muffled groan, his whole body breaking out in a cold sweat. He took several steps back before struggling to speak, "Half-step Warlord!"

"Can we talk now" He didn't respond to his words and calmly said, "Who are you, and where is your hideout"

Whew!

The young man didn't hesitate for a moment, he turned and dashed out the door.

The difference between them was vast, like heaven and earth. He no longer had the courage to stay.

"Thinking of running again" The Judge said in a deep voice, his wrist flipping once more.

Bang!

A blade flashed like lightning from his right knee, severing his calf cleanly above the knee. The young man crumpled to the ground.

"Ah!" the young man could no longer hold back and cried out hysterically.

"You have two more chances. After I cut off your other hand and foot, if you still don't speak, then it will only be your head." The Judge walked up to him.

"I said, I said," the young man had lost all his swagger. He believed the judge's words were absolutely not a threat to him.

After swallowing hard, he continued, "We are from Yuancheng Tianwei Martial Arts Hall."

"The Heavenly Might Martial Arts Hall" The judge frowned. "Who sent you to capture that little girl"

"Yes, yes, I'm the headmaster of our martial arts academy," the man said with difficulty again.

"You're courting death!" The judge's eyes narrowed, his blade flashing.

"Don't!" the ghostly figures screamed in terror.

Tut!

Before the words could finish, silence fell. A blood line appeared at his throat, and after a few violent twitches, he lay still.

"Tianwei Martial Hall What's its background" Judge back to Yingmen, Ling Hao asked.

"Yuancheng is known as the 'Home of Martial Arts Academies,' with many martial arts practitioners opening academies and accepting students. Tianwei Martial Arts Academy is one of the largest." The judge responded.

As the magistrate of Shadow Gate's Eastern District, he was naturally well-acquainted with some of the more prominent forces and organizations within his jurisdiction.

"If I remember correctly, the biggest aristocratic family in Yuancheng is the Yuan family, right" Ling Hao pondered for a moment before asking.

"Hmm!" The judge nodded. "The Heavenly Might Martial Arts Academy is the Yuan family's property."

"Go and take a look!" Ling Hao narrowed his eyes, then got up and walked toward the door. Xuan Pang and the Judge followed closely behind.

Tianwei Martial Arts Hall is located on the eastern outskirts of Yuancheng, a manor covering an area of 50,000 to 60,000 square meters.

At the same time that Ling Hao and his two companions were hurrying along the road, inside a stone cave at the back of the estate, several skeletons lay scattered on the ground, and a cold wind howled within the cave.

A man in his forties, sat cross-legged on a cold, damp stone, practicing qigong.

Whew! Whew! Whew!

In a moment, the air around the man began to swirl and quicken its pace. Soon, it formed a formidable vortex of air.

Subsequently, a chill emanated from the cave walls, swiftly surging into the vortex of air.

Boom!

In a moment, a powerful aura erupted from the middle-aged man. Countless stone chips rained down from the surrounding stone walls, and the large rock beneath him shattered at the same time.

"Hahaha!" The next moment, the middle-aged man stood still, laughing wildly at the sky: "Success! I finally succeeded in attaining enlightenment, hahaha!"

"Congratulations to the Head Coach for finally breaking through!" Two men in fine clothes entered the cave and bowed respectfully.

“Hahaha, the Yin Sha Scripture is indeed well-deserved! Within three months, it allowed me to break through from a small accomplishment in the War God realm to the War Venerable realm. It's truly divine!” The middle-aged man was Yuan Zhi, the head coach of Tianwei Martial Arts Academy.

"Immediately notify everyone, post a battle notice at every martial arts hall in Yuancheng, and starting tomorrow, this headmaster will kick them all out of Yuancheng!"

"As you wish!" the two men bowed in response.

"Have you found that little wretch who ran off" Yuan Zhi retracted his imposing presence and continued.l be appointed as the president of Shengyan Group.Given the large scale of this group company, with thousands of employees, Qin Yuxin will undoubtedly face considerable human pressure upon taking offi...
