Starting as the young master of a medicine shop, he practiced swordsmanship for twenty years

This wail lasted for a full half hour, until finally, there was no sound left.

Zhang Heng didn't stop. He then picked up the kitchen knife and, without any hesitation, slit the throats of the young man's four bodyguards!

Because Zhang Heng had already sensed that many figures had appeared around, but they were afraid to approach due to the tragic wailing.

"Daughter, did you see that? This little beast was killed by your father's own hands!"

"Father is coming to join you!"

After saying that, a hint of resolution flashed in Zhang Heng's eyes, and he gathered the strength of his entire body in his right hand, resolutely striking towards his chest.

The terrifying power instantly shattered his heart and meridians, and Zhang Heng immediately fell to the ground and died.

Inside the county town, there was a magnificent building, a mansion whose walls were made of huge blue stone bricks.

Two stone lions were placed symmetrically on the left and right sides of the gate, majestic and solemn, appearing to have been weathered by time.

Qingyun County Yamen!

This was the location of the Qingyun County Yamen.

At this time, the sky was already getting late, but the yamen was brightly lit with candles, and people were moving about.

Inside the yamen, in a spacious and bright room, there were more than a dozen people sitting, with a man who looked to be about forty or fifty years old sitting in the main seat.

This was Chen Shi, the chief constable of Qingyun County, the strongest person in the county on the surface, with a Bone Refinement Realm cultivation at its peak!

The other dozen or so people in the room were constables of the county yamen, responsible for leading the yamen runners in various areas of the county.

Among the constables inside, there was also someone Lu Xuan knew, and that was Liang Cheng.

They all looked serious and solemn as they reported the daily happenings in the county to Chen Shi.

At this moment, a yamen runner rushed in, flustered, and said to Chen Shi in a panic, "It's bad, Chief Constable, there's been a murder in the county!"

Chen Shi looked up and saw the yamen runner looking terrified, seemingly very scared.

A murder?

Wasn't this a normal occurrence?

How could these people, as yamen runners of the county yamen, show such incompetence when they encountered a murder?

Although somewhat dissatisfied, Chen Shi still calmly looked at the yamen runner who had rushed in and said, "Where did the murder occur?"

"It's in the east of the city, not far from our county yamen!"

"The person who had the accident was Huang Xuanjie of the Huang family, along with his four bodyguards!"

A stone that stirred up a thousand waves!

As soon as the yamen runner finished speaking, Chen Shi and the dozen or so constables in the room all stared at the yamen runner.

Chen Shi even stood up, wondering if he had heard wrong: "What did you say? Huang Xuanjie of the Huang family is dead?"

Huang family!

There was only one Huang family in the entire county, and that was the mansion of the County Clerk, the most powerful person in the county besides the County Magistrate.

Huang Xuanjie was the nephew of this County Clerk. He was actually dead, then things were serious!

Especially Chen Shi, his face changed drastically, obviously feeling very棘手.

Because he knew Huang Xuanjie's true identity. The Huang family publicly claimed that Huang Xuanjie was the nephew of the County Clerk.

In fact, the real situation was that Huang Xuanjie was the County Clerk's biological son, the son born to the County Clerk and his younger brother's wife.

The chief constable felt a headache just thinking about this. He was not afraid of the County Clerk causing trouble for him, but he was also afraid that this County Clerk would go crazy and implicate innocent people.

However, while Chief Constable Chen Shi felt a headache, some people didn't think so.

Liang Cheng, who was on the side, was stunned when he heard the news, and then joy arose in his heart!

"What! Such a good thing! He deserved to die! This beast should have died long ago! Damn it, I have long wanted to….."

Chen Shi frowned and looked at Liang Cheng, who was gloating on the side, and scolded, "Liang Cheng, shut your mouth!"

Although that Huang Xuanjie deserved to die, Liang Cheng's words could easily be targeted by the County Clerk.

Facing Chief Constable Chen Shi's scolding, Liang Cheng had no choice but to spread his hands helplessly: "Uncle Chen, what are you afraid of? That bastard deserved to die."

Chen Shi and his father were close friends, so Liang Cheng dared to be so outspoken.

Liang Cheng had long disliked Huang Xuanjie. Every time he patrolled, he would see him wantonly oppressing the people.

If it weren't for the fact that the beast was surrounded by many bodyguards, with a large number of people, Liang Cheng would have already thrown him into prison.

"Alright, you all go back. I will handle this case personally. Liang Cheng, you come with me to the scene."

With things as they were, Chen Shi had no choice but to dismiss all the constables and choose to handle this murder case himself.

The Huang family, who received the news of Huang Xuanjie's death, arrived earlier than the people from the county yamen.

The head of the Huang family, the County Clerk, was not among the Huang family members who came, because he was in seclusion these days.

Huang Xuanjie's biological mother also fainted to the ground upon receiving the news.

Among the Huang family members who came, the leader was the Huang family's chief steward, an old man who looked to be about sixty years old.

At this time, he looked terrified, looking at the pile of red and white mixed mud on the ground.

The Huang family's chief steward's body trembled involuntarily. He could already imagine the scene when his master came out of seclusion.

The latest novel is first published at Six/Nine/Book/Bar!

"Young master!"

"It's over, it's all over. This damned bastard, come on, drag him down and chop him into pieces, feed him to the dogs!"

The Huang family's chief steward flew into a rage, pointing at Zhang Heng's body in the distance and shouting loudly.

Just as the Huang family members were about to move Zhang Heng's body, the yamen runners from the county yamen also arrived.

The leader was Chen Shi, the chief constable of the yamen. Behind him were Liang Cheng and a dozen yamen runners.

In an instant, dozens of slowly burning torches gathered together, illuminating the darkness around, as if it were daytime.

Seeing the Huang family members about to move Zhang Heng's body, Liang Cheng directly stepped forward and kicked away the Huang family member who was closest.

"Humph!"

"Let me see who dares, this is the yamen's business, all irrelevant people leave!"

"Bastard, you dare to go against the Huang family!"

Whoosh!

A sound of wind breaking came, and the Huang family's chief steward suddenly burst out, his body shooting towards Liang Cheng, wanting to attack the unprepared Liang Cheng.

At this time, a large hand stretched out from behind Liang Cheng, firmly grabbing the Huang family's chief steward's hand.

Chen Shi walked up from behind, looking at Huang Da coldly: "Next time, I will definitely kill you without mercy!"

Liang Cheng looked at Huang Da, who was only one step away from him, and suddenly felt a chill down his back.

Damn it, this old thing actually dared to sneak attack me.

Damn it! The old thing doesn't talk about martial ethics!

"You old undead………."

Liang Cheng was about to burst into abuse at Huang Da, but was grabbed by Chen Shi.

"Alright, all irrelevant people get out of the way, Liang Cheng, you take them and take all the bodies on the ground back to the yamen!"

With Chief Constable Chen Shi's words, the Huang family members did not dare to act again, and could only let the yamen people take away the bodies on the ground.

After all, everyone in the county knew the name of Chen Shi, the chief constable of the yamen, the strongest person in the county, a martial artist at the peak of the Bone Refinement Realm.

Liang Cheng also recognized Zhang Heng's appearance and was shocked.

It's this crazy guy!

I didn't expect him to really avenge his hatred.

No, I have to think of a way to resolve this matter first, lest it involve me and Brother Xuan.
