In order to atone for his sins and completely eradicate the Hell's Gate, Zheng Shi assembled a luxurious and formidable pursuit team.
The skilled and renowned detective, a top-ranking magistrate, deployed fourteen of his officers at once, all with ranks no lower than fifth grade!
Of them, ten are fifth-rank inner courtyard head constables, and the other four are fourth-rank outer courtyard head constables.
Zheng Shiran personally came forward and invited a powerful retired expert from Beiya, once a legendary hunter of demons, Yue Leng, who was said to have the aura of a god.
Almost emptied the treasury of Beiya.
One god, four outer halls, and ten inner palaces. Including Jiang Wang, who temporarily got a spot, there were sixteen powerful individuals in total. This lineup was undeniably formidable.
The reason for coming to Bay County is that the pursuit team's investigation leads have arrived here.

Although Jiang Wang was only there in name, he still had to show up, at least for a bit, to make an appearance and leverage the situation. He then left alone under the pretext of investigating clues.
Yes, though the assassins from Hell's Gate successfully assassinated Zhao Xuan and escaped from Linzi, they were unable to directly escape from Qi.
Jiang Wang also arrived in Bei County and, upon seeing the numerous Qingpai (blue-plaque) captains gathered there, learned about this matter.
Hell's Gate assassin Zhao Xuan was able to succeed for many reasons, both in terms of skill and preparation, as well as luck.
And once a powerful nation like Qi State reacted, it wouldn't be just the word "terrifying" that could describe it.
Although the government building didn't have time to close the city of Linzi, it resolutely closed off the national borders!
All border areas have been raised to the highest level of alert, and those leaving Qi are repeatedly checked. No one is allowed to leave unnoticed.

...As for the borders beyond Guancheng, they are controlled by the protective national formation. No people or animals are allowed to pass through.
There is a peerless expert controlling the national protective formation. Whenever a phenomenon of breaking through the level occurs, they arrive instantly.

Compared to the pursuit force assembled by Beiyaguan, this powerful being who controls the Guoguo Grand Formation is truly the deadly guillotine hanging over the head of Dijiu Wumen.
Hell is without a door, like a fish being watched, cunning and powerful, though it leaps out of Linzi, it remains in this pond of the state of Qi.
The task of the pursuit team is to lay a wide net during this period of closed borders, to capture the ruthless killer who has no way out of hell and wipe him out!
When the Pursuit Squad made their appearance, Captain Yue Leng of the Capture God Division was notably absent. It seems that this time, his involvement in the matter was solely for providing a physical deterrent.
The intelligence capabilities of the Qingpai chiefs are unquestionable. No one in Linzi City didn't know about the momentous standoff between the fearsome Butcher and the God of War. They were all very enthusiastic about Jiang Wang, some even wanting to offer a chicken sacrifice and burn yellow paper right there on the spot. Jiang Wang kept pushing them away left and right, managing to dissuade them in the end.
The pursuit team established by Beiya was actually headed by a fourth-rank Qingpai constable named Ma Xiong. Zheng Shi should have hinted at him, knowing that Jiang Wang wasn't really here to investigate the case, so he didn't assign Jiang Wang any difficult tasks. Of course, corresponding to his authority, the core of the case was not involved either.
And in the eyes of other aspiring young leaders, this was perfectly reasonable. Jiang Wang's current reputation in Qi State could be described as a gifted prodigy. It was natural that he received care and preferential treatment, and it was only right for him to have resources tilted in his favor. It was natural that trivial tasks should not trouble such a prodigious talent.
The Pursuit Squad arrived in Bay County, naturally following the trail of Hell's Gate.
But these matters were none of Jiang Wang's concern. Whether it was the Hell No Gate side or Qi State, it wasn't his place to influence events. Even if he cared about the case, he wouldn't be foolish enough to show it.
He only planned to quietly blend in for two days, then part ways with the pursuing team.
"The renowned Jiang Qingyang, alone here pondering Could he have any new insights about the Hell's Gate" A female voice came from behind.
The pursuit team wasn't ostentatious in Bay County, but neither did they try to hide their presence. They lived in a spacious manor arranged by the local authorities. At this moment, everyone else was out, and Jiang Wang sat alone in the cool pavilion at the center of the pond, silently pondering his own affairs.
Turning back at the sound, she saw a woman with a blue headscarf.
This woman's appearance was merely ordinary, but her eyes, they seemed to pierce straight into one's heart.
Jiang Wang recognized him. It was a fifth-rank green badge bounty hunter from the Pursuit Team, named Lin Youxie. He was also the person who left the deepest impression on Jiang Wang in this Pursuit Team. Even though her official position was only fifth rank and her strength was only at the Tenglong realm, she was the lowest-ranking bounty hunter in the entire Pursuit Team.
He participated in only a few case discussions. Among the experienced detectives, Lin Youxie didn't speak much, but every word he said was precise and to the point, with a very clear line of thought, often hitting the core of the matter.
“I’m aware of that.” Jiang Wang smiled gently and skipped the previous question: “You’ve thought this through thoroughly. What new ideas could I possibly have”
Even if he didn't intend to stay in this line of work, he wouldn't easily offend these prominent figures.

Lin Youxie looked at him: "You're too humble."
It's so frustrating dealing with these smart people, their minds are too hard to figure out.
Jiang Wang's mind was quietly turning over thoughts, while his mouth said, "Captain Lin, what brings you here to chat with me today"
"Ah. The whereabouts of King Taishan have been found. Master Yue and Master Ma have gone." Lin Youxie said as if casually: "With my ability, I wouldn't be of much help even if I went. I'll just wait for news here at home."
King of Mount Tai ranks seventh among the Ten Halls of Hell. Among those who made a move on Xiao Lian Bridge, he was one. He is a peak Outer Court Realm expert. But in front of a renowned Divine Presence like Yue Leng, once his whereabouts are exposed, there will be almost no chance of survival.
Though Jiang Wang's heart was filled with dread, he remained composed on the surface.
As a member of the pursuit team in name only, I wasn't informed about such an important matter beforehand. A nominal position is just that—nominal...
Then, Lin Youxie said the reason for this matter was what Simply put, the action had already begun, and King Taishan was almost caught, so there was no need to keep it a secret anymore.

Or... a test
Zhenxuan showed a good example, and Jiang Wang decided not to scare himself.
He met Yin Guan in secret outside Linzi City, and no one else would know except for them. Even Su Xie, the only other person who knew, was already dead.
...But he didn't believe Yin Guan would expose him for helping arrange his entry into the city.
It's not that he believed Yin Guan would value him or protect him very much.
>
But he believed that someone like Yin Guan wouldn't be captured alive.
"That's great." Jiang Wang said.
Lin Youxie shifted his gaze to the water surface. As winter approached, the lotus leaves had long withered away. The pond water was still clear, with some black decaying leaves floating on top.

"By the way," she suddenly asked, "how is Zhang Yong doing now"
“Huaxiang Zhang” Jiang Wang was unwilling to be led around by the nose and asked back, “Why ask me”
"Oh, the Phoenix Zhang family extermination case, I was the one who investigated it."

“Then he should thank you.” Jiang Wang said.
Although we found the culprit, they were beyond recognition and committed suicide before us. It's almost as if we hadn't found them at all.
"Finding the culprit is good enough," Jiang Wang said with little sincerity, standing up and using his actions to show disinterest in the topic.
>
"Sorry," Lin Youxie apologized. "Because I happened to find out that you visited Zhang Yong before going to Yang Guo. Since you are both winners of the Tianfu Secret Realm, I thought you were very close and asked you."
“He was just going through the motions. He’s working at Changsheng Palace now, his future is bright. We don’t have much to do with each other.”
As Jiang Wang spoke, he turned and left the place.ure of her own judgment and executes it with unwavering resolve.However...Despite being a peerless beauty named Deng Qi, the man who ruled the country did not immediately launch a counterattack.... bu...
