Why did she ask about Zhang Yong?
Why would she ask about Zhang Yong?
As early as Cloudmist Mountain, Jiang Wang knew that Zhang Yong was not right. This person was hiding his strength, possessed mysterious pupil techniques, and might not be a true descendant of the Phoenix Immortal Zhang Clan.
Whether or not to expose him at that time was only a matter of a single thought. In the end, why he chose to conceal it for him, Jiang Wang himself was not sure. Looking back, it was probably moved by Zhang Yong’s pleading eyes.
Even earlier, when leaving the Heavenly Mansion Secret Realm, the inexplicable sense of familiarity he had with Zhang Yong made his attitude towards Zhang Yong very gentle.
He had no ill feelings towards Zhang Yong.
But now, why would Lin Youxie use Zhang Yong’s matter to ask him?
It wasn’t that Jiang Wang liked to overthink, but Lin Youxie’s identity was too sensitive. As a Blue Badge Constable, she was responsible for all kinds of extraordinary cases in Qi, and Zhang Yong indeed had problems.
Moreover, as a descendant of a famous constable like Lin Youxie, whose family had worn the Blue Badge for generations, her means of handling cases were beyond doubt.
Could it be that Zhang Yong had already been exposed? Was it possible that he would be implicated?
While Jiang Wang was still weighing the gains and losses in the room, there was already a commotion outside.
It turned out that God Catcher Yue Leng had already escorted King Taishan back.
Jiang Wang sighed inwardly. As an absolute high-level figure within the Gate of Hell, one of the Ten Yama Kings, his capture meant that the situation had been completely opened up.
With so many experienced Blue Badge Constables here, King Taishan couldn’t hide the answer, and it wasn’t even up to his own will to decide. Now it depended on how far the other members of the Gate of Hell could run before King Taishan revealed the information, and how deeply they could hide themselves.
However, now that the national borders were sealed, within the territory of Qi, abandoning all past arrangements, under the full pursuit of the Blue Badge Constables, could they really hide?
Jiang Wang finally saw Yue Leng. This former generation of “God Catcher” had slightly frosted temples, a square face, and a serious expression.
Some of the cases he handled were still talked about today. Judging from his glorious experience, this person was at least one hundred and fifty years old.
However, the lifespan of a God Pro Realm expert was five hundred and eighteen years. If there were no disasters or calamities, he would still have a long life.
Reaching his strength and status, there was nothing more to pursue in the Northern Yamen. If he had not retired, Zheng Shi probably wouldn’t have had the chance to become the Northern Yamen Commandant.
For such a figure, the only pursuit in life was probably to comprehend the True Cave realm. He didn’t know how Zheng Shi had managed to persuade him to come out of retirement.
Behind him, King Taishan of the Gate of Hell was being led in like a dog with a chain by Yue Leng.
Aside from Yin Guan, King Taishan was the first Yama King whose true appearance Jiang Wang had seen.
Of course, the mask had long been removed. His face was long and thin, and his eyes were extremely fierce. Even though both hands were bound by chains, even though he was stumbling under Yue Leng’s pull, his gaze was still full of ferocity.
Seeing Jiang Wang, who had just come to greet the group of Blue Badge Constables, seeing his delicate appearance and standing guard at the station, he probably thought he was a young master from some family here for gilding, and he grinned, his attitude crazy: “Boy, have you seen blood?”
Jiang Wang looked at him calmly, without speaking or making any other expression.
If the person captured was Yin Guan or that King Songdi he had seen at Little Lian Bridge, Jiang Wang might have had some emotional fluctuations. This King Taishan’s intimidation really didn’t have any effect on Jiang Wang.
No matter how fierce the Yama Kings of the Gate of Hell were, they were now just prisoners.
Ma Xiong was walking next to King Taishan. Hearing the sound, he raised his palm, looking like he wanted to give him a few slaps, probably having suffered a small loss during the previous capture. But after taking a glance at God Catcher Yue Leng walking in front, he put his hand down.
The remaining Blue Badge Constables all followed behind the team.
Jiang Wang showed no dissatisfaction at being kept in the dark. He nodded to each of them, and of course, received friendly responses. No one would be unwilling to be friends with a genius, even if only considering Jiang Wang’s current strength, it was worth their respect.
Yue Leng didn’t have any special words or expressions for Jiang Wang. He probably had the same view as King Taishan.
He only watched coldly the matter of families cultivating geniuses to gain experience.
Pulling King Taishan, Yue Leng stopped at the door of the main hall and looked back at the ferocious man he had personally captured: “I gave you time along the way. Have you thought about what you want to tell me?”
He didn’t ask specific questions, but instead asked King Taishan to think about what answers he could provide.
King Taishan looked at him fiercely, not saying a word.
After waiting for a while, Yue Leng said, “Very good.”
When he said “very good,” his tone was truly very good. There was no hint of threat or intimidation.
After speaking, he waved his hand: “Ma Xiong and Lin Youxie stay, everyone else leave.”
The instructions were clear and simple.
Ma Xiong was of course the person in charge of this pursuit team, but only when Yue Leng was not present.
At this time, as soon as Yue Leng spoke, he obediently did as he was told.
Yue Leng was clearly going to use torture, and because his Blue Badge identity was only temporarily borrowed, Jiang Wang was obviously not qualified to watch and “learn,” nor could he understand the progress of the case at the first moment.
In fact, not only Jiang Wang, but most of the pursuit team members were dismissed at this moment.
What Jiang Wang didn’t expect was that Lin Youxie was one of the only two people Yue Leng had left behind. Perhaps Yue Leng looked at her with special eyes, or perhaps she had some extraordinary means that even Yue Leng had to rely on.
And no matter which reason it was, it made Jiang Wang pay more attention to the questions Lin Youxie had asked. This was not an insignificant Blue Badge Constable.
But this importance could only be kept in his heart.
After casually chatting with the other constables, Jiang Wang returned to his room. He behaved very properly, without even trying to get information out of them. He didn’t seem to be curious at all about the process of the pursuit team capturing King Taishan.
If there was a chance, Jiang Wang really wanted to help Yin Guan. Firstly, Yin Guan had saved his life, although he had said before that it was offset by helping him enter the city, there was still an emotional connection. Secondly, although he was sure that Yin Guan wouldn’t expose that he had helped Yin Guan sneak into Linzi, this matter was no small matter after all.
Chong Xuansheng had used this matter to destroy the business left behind by Chong Xuanzun, forcing Wen Lianmu to give up resisting, and forcing Wang Yiwu to take risks.
Once the truth was exposed… there wouldn’t be any good results, no matter how he looked at it.
But what could he do?
This courtyard was full of Blue Badge Constables who had spent their entire lives dealing with extraordinary cases. What could he do without revealing any flaws, without being discovered?
Jiang Wang didn’t have that kind of confidence, so he could only honestly close the door and cultivate, playing his role of muddling through.
Not long after he returned to his room,
King Taishan’s screams rang out in the courtyard.
What kind of torture could make a ferocious man like King Taishan, who had been wandering on the line of life and death for many years, unable to help but scream out? Not being able to see the scene made people’s imagination particularly eerie.
The sound came from the main hall, passing through half the courtyard, and was received by Jiang Wang’s ears.
It didn’t stop all night.
“The peak of the Outer Building Realm, indeed full of vigor.”
Jiang Yan said so.
“Shut up!”
Jiang Wang responded unhappily.
