Chapter 127 The Mission of the Underworld
In that instant, an astonishing aura erupted from Lin Qing. Wei Dong happened to push open the door and was suddenly enveloped by this aura. He was startled, his body went limp, and he almost knelt down.
"Lin, Brother Lin—you're too awesome!"
Lin Qing finished his practice, slowly exhaled a breath, and stretched his muscles and bones slightly.
He could clearly feel that his strength in one arm had increased explosively again, approaching 500,000 jin.
This is an extremely exaggerated number. An ordinary True Qi Realm martial artist only has 40,000 jin of strength, while Lin Qing has more than ten times that.
With this in mind, Lin Qing reached out and picked up a pebble from the ground. He flicked it with his finger, and whoosh! The pebble turned into a black shadow and hit a jujube tree that required two people to hug it not far away.
With a loud crack, the jujube tree was hit in the middle by a stone, exploded suddenly, and wood chips flew everywhere. It broke in half and fell to the ground.
"This single flying stone is enough to shatter an ordinary fourth-realm martial artist," Lin Qing thought to himself.
When Wei Dong saw this scene, he could hear the whistling sound of the pebbles flying through the air and feel the terrifying power contained within them.
He swallowed hard. "Brother Lin, you've reached the True Qi Realm?"
Lin Qing nodded slightly: "Remember to keep it a secret!"
He didn't expect that Wei Dong would see him break through at that very moment.
However, since we've seen it, we should just admit it openly.
"Absolutely! That's incredible, Brother Lin! You've reached the True Qi Realm in less than a year! That's amazing!" Wei Dong exclaimed with admiration. Standing in front of Lin Qing, he could faintly feel a powerful aura. He had only ever felt this way when facing Wang Ling before. Could it be that Lin Qing's combat strength was already comparable to Wang Ling's?
absurd!
It must be an illusion!
Wei Dong quickly dismissed the idea, but at that moment, Lin Qing interrupted his train of thought.
"Wei Dong, why are you back again?"
"Oh, I almost forgot, the Jingming Division just sent people over to request the transfer of corpse collection teams to the prefectural city to assist in the investigation. Both of us are on the list," Wei Dong said.
"Assist in the investigation?" Lin Qing raised an eyebrow.
"That's right. I heard that the Yin Yuan Sect's evil deeds are becoming increasingly rampant, and the Jingming Division is short-handed," Wei Dong said.
"Alright, let's go take a look together." Lin Qing nodded.
He felt it was time to go out and explore. Didn't the Yin Yuan Sect want to kill him? Bring it on, he was fearless now.
With his physical strength alone, he could easily dominate among True Qi Realm experts, and if he were to mobilize his Qi, he would be confident of fighting even against True Yuan Realm warriors.
Because the Unity of Heaven Technique is the most advanced technique, the Qi it condenses must also be the most advanced Qi, and its strength will be extremely astonishing.
The difference between True Essence and True Qi lies in the fact that Qi transforms into Yuan Qi, greatly increasing its strength. It can be released outside the body and cover a certain area around the body.
Even a hundred ordinary True Qi Realm martial artists combined might not be able to defeat a single True Yuan Realm martial artist.
However, as long as the physical body is tough enough and the internal energy is strong enough, it is enough to make up for this gap.
This was not Lin Qing's idea, but rather a clear statement in the He Yi Tian Gong, which states that one can sever true essence upon entering the first level.
While they were pondering, the two went out and went straight to a training ground where hundreds of constables had already gathered.
Ao Xiong stood with his hands behind his back, his posture as upright as a pine tree, his silver hair flowing in the wind, exuding a deep and imposing aura.
Before long, the personnel had assembled, and Ao Xiong said in a deep voice: "Recently, the situation in the prefectural city has been tense, with the Yin Yuan Sect's demons causing chaos everywhere. The people of my Jingming Division alone are not enough to investigate the case, so I have transferred people from the Night Patrol Division to help."
As he spoke, a man stepped out from behind him and shouted, "Wang Hu, you take a team to the alleys of the West City; Zhao Chuan, you take a team to Wu Gui Alley—"
The man selected twelve people in one go, dividing everyone present into twelve teams, with Lin Qing and Wei Dong being assigned to the alleys in the east of the city.
The leader was a bearded man named Song Chuanxin, who was strong and had a rough voice.
However, despite being the team leader, he treated Lin Qing with great respect.
"Chief Lin, my name is Song Chuanxin, and I am a chief constable of the Jingming Division. You are coming with me today, so please cooperate with me."
"Don't worry, Officer Song. Since I've been assigned to be your subordinate, I'll follow the rules," Lin Qing said softly.
"That's good. Officer Lin is indeed a very easy person to get along with," Song Chuanxin said with a smile.
How could he dare offend Lin Qing? Lin Qing was a candidate for the position of Chief of the Department, and who knows, he might become one of the three Chiefs of the Department one day.
He was actually quite confused. Lin Qing shouldn't have been on the list of those to be transferred, but since Ao Xiong had personally selected him, he couldn't ask too many questions.
"Let's set off then. Recently, a wealthy family of thirteen was murdered in an alley in the East City, and three children have gone missing. Our mission is to investigate the scene, look for clues, and then follow the trail to capture the murderer alive," Song Chuanxin said.
"Okay." Everyone nodded.
"Let's go."
Song Chuanxin immediately led his team out of the training ground. Ao Xiong stared at Lin Qing's back, a murderous glint flashing in his eyes.
He waited for a month but couldn't find the slightest opportunity, because Lin Qing actually hid in the Zhenhun Division's headquarters for a whole month.
"Since there's no chance, I'll create one. As long as I can kill you, I can once again receive the blessing of the Devouring Spirit Demon, and my son will also be granted the supreme visualization technique. For my life and for my son's future, I want your life," Ao Xiong said coldly.
He deliberately seized the opportunity when Wang Ling was absent; otherwise, if Wang Ling were present, he would never have called up Lin Qing.
As for whether Wang Ling will be angry after Lin Qing's death? He doesn't care. What if he is angry? As long as there is no evidence, his life will not be in danger.
When there is a shortage of manpower, it is the most common practice in the Soul Suppressing Division to draw on staff from other departments to help.
"I hope those trash from the Yin Yuan Sect won't disappoint me," Ao Xiong thought to himself. "Four True Qi Realm warriors working together should be enough to kill Lin Qing!"
..
An hour later, led by Song Chuanxin, Lin Qing and more than ten other constables arrived at their target location, the Ma family's house in Dongcheng Lane.
This man runs a ceramics business and has considerable wealth. He recently purchased a three-courtyard house in this area.
Lin Qing entered the courtyard, where the murder scene was still preserved. As far as the eye could see, the place was a mess, with thirteen bodies scattered in different places, each with a bizarre manner of death. Some had been sucked dry, some had been cut in two, and there was even a beautiful woman who died naked, her lower body a bloody mess, indicating that she must have been abused before her death.
"Damn it, the Yin Yuan Sect is a bunch of beasts!" Wei Dong couldn't help but curse when he saw this scene.
Song Chuanxin sighed, "Brother Wei, don't be angry. Adjust your mindset. You'll get used to it after seeing it more often. But you're right, the Yin Yuan Sect is a bunch of beasts!"
"Alas, I only hope that the Yin Yuan Sect will perish as soon as possible," Wei Dong sighed.
"Go around and see if you can find any clues," Song Chuanxin nodded and instructed.
The group dispersed, and Lin Qing, along with Wei Dong and three other constables, went to the backyard, which was overgrown with weeds and contained only a few outhouses.
Just as he was about to leave, a piercing scream suddenly came from all around, violently filling Lin Qing's ears. He first felt a sharp pain in his brain, and then found that the scenery around him was distorted. Suddenly the sky darkened, the soil under his feet turned blood red, and countless blue ghost claws reached out, tearing and scratching at his body.
