The temperature on the long street suddenly rose by hundreds of degrees.

The terrifying figure engulfed in flames suddenly disappeared from the long street. Meng Ke, who was in the shop, had a face full of shock and disbelief.

"How is this possible? How could this happen? How could my Great Demon Arrow be blocked?"

This arrow, refined from the tendons of demonic beasts, possessed immense power. It could be said that almost no Martial Artist below the Divine Transformation Realm could withstand this arrow.

"Great Demon Arrow, is it an arrow made from demonic beast Materials? No wonder it has such power."

The temperature in the ruins suddenly increased. The figure covered in flames, like a god or demon, appeared next to Meng Ke in an instant.

Soon, the flames dissipated, revealing Lin Sheng's stern face.

In his hand, he was holding a crimson arrow. However, as the flames burned, the red light on the crimson arrow quickly dissipated, and it then loosened, turning back into a strap.

But at this moment, the strap was riddled with holes, as if it had decayed for many years, and it shattered before any force was applied.

"Silver Badge Constable of Tiannan Prefecture City, your strength is not weak, and you have such a treasure protecting your body. I presume your position in the Prefecture Yamen is not low. You should be able to answer many of my questions."

Lin Sheng's gaze fell on Meng Ke, whose aura was weak and decaying, and he spoke calmly.

This person's strength was indeed not weak. Although his cultivation had not yet reached the Late Stage of the Bones Transformation Realm, his combat power was not inferior to that of ordinary Late Stage Bones Transformation Realm Martial Artists.

If you added the arrow made from demonic beast Materials just now, even a Bones Transformation Realm Peak like Wu Xing Sword Shi Hui might not be able to block it, and there was a high possibility of ending up dead.

"Who are you? Who exactly are you? A master like you cannot be unknown." Meng Ke did not answer Lin Sheng but stared at him, asking repeatedly.

"I basically know all the masters in Tiannan Prefecture. There is absolutely no one like you. You are not from Tiannan Prefecture, you..."

Meng Ke kept talking, possibilities flashing through his mind. Suddenly, his body trembled as if he had thought of something.

"Flames, high temperature, amazing defense, powerful strength, you are... Seven Forms Sect Leader Lin Sheng!!"

As a Silver Badge Constable of the Prefecture Yamen, his information was naturally very well-informed. He also knew what had happened in Linjiang Prefecture.

Thinking back a few months ago, he heard that a monstrous Genius had appeared in Linjiang Prefecture, who had killed many Silver Badge Constables and even killed a great sect's Jianzi and Elders.

At that time, when he heard this news, he didn't pay much attention to it, only thinking that the Martial Artists in Linjiang Prefecture were too weak.

He didn't expect to encounter him here a few months later.

Seeing the other party directly take his strongest arrow without suffering any damage, he finally understood at this moment what kind of monster the Linjiang Prefecture Yamen had faced that day, and how ridiculous his own mockery had been at that time.

"Have I been recognized?" Lin Sheng showed a hint of surprise on his face. He didn't expect the person in front of him to confirm his identity so quickly. Clearly, some of his characteristics had already spread among the Prefecture Yamen.

"It seems I need to be more careful when the Scarlet Eye Flame Dragon enters my body in the future, to avoid exposure."

Lin Sheng's heart tightened, and he muttered to himself.

The next moment, his eyes turned completely black. He had no intention of delaying further, because besides the Red Flower House, the Haihe Gang's situation was even more critical.

Yesterday, the County Yamen had already secretly taken control of the Haihe Gang's high-level members.

If he hadn't checked Wu He's memory before, he wouldn't even know this news now.

As Meng Ke's emotions were agitated, he met Lin Sheng's eyes, and soon his agitated emotions quickly calmed down.

However, just as Lin Sheng was examining his memory, he saw a look of painful struggle on Meng Ke's face, and he was about to wake up from the hallucinatory state.

Seeing this scene, Lin Sheng frowned and continued to increase the infusion of spiritual power. This time, he finally saw some memories, but Meng Ke seemed to be stimulated and struggled more fiercely.

Lin Sheng only felt that the other party's memory was becoming more and more chaotic.

He could only reluctantly cancel the hallucination.

"As expected, the Seed Devil Secret Art's effect on Martial Artists with stronger spiritual power is greatly reduced."

He had anticipated this situation, but he didn't expect to encounter it so soon. The Meng Ke in front of him was clearly a Martial Artist with stronger spiritual power.

"What did you do to me!? This is Tiannan, not Linjiang. Your attack on me is tantamount to seeking your own death. I advise you to let me go, otherwise there will be no place for you in Tiannan Prefecture..."

Meng Ke woke up and immediately spoke in a deep voice. At this moment, after the initial madness, he had calmed down.

"Although your strength is good, Divine Transformation Realm Martial Artists are not something you can contend with, and you are not alone... You'd better think carefully..."

Pfft—

Before Meng Ke could finish speaking, his voice froze in his throat, and a look of astonishment appeared on his face. He lowered his head and looked in disbelief at the large hand that had pierced his chest.

"Too much nonsense..."

Violent force surged out, and Meng Ke's body directly shattered.

Lin Sheng withdrew his hand. A flame rose from his palm, burning away the bloodstains on it. He turned around and had already disappeared into the shop.

...

Luoshui County Yamen.

The dimly lit prison room.

This prison room was located below the County Yamen and was quite large. It had not been used before. Previous prisoners were held in another prison room outside the County Yamen.

But at this moment, there were many people in this underground prison room, and a strong smell of blood permeated the air.

"Lord Zhang, you have been working hard for several days. This time, Sun specially prepared a rich banquet for you and Lord Meng. Please move to have a drink."

In the prison room, a long-bearded old man had a smile on his face, his gaze falling on the strong man who was standing next to him with a stern expression.

The long-bearded old man was none other than Sun Wenbo, the County Lieutenant of Luoshui County, one of the two people at the pinnacle of power in Luoshui County Town, and even subtly suppressing Wu He.

The strong man was playing with a blood-red pill in his hand. Hearing Sun Wenbo's words, he stopped his movements and put the blood-red pill into a porcelain bottle.

"Alright. By my calculations, Meng Ke and the others should be back soon. Your and Commander Wu's contributions are indispensable for the completion of this mission."

"When I return to the Fu City this time, Zhao will definitely record a merit for you two with the City Lord."

Hearing this, the smile on Sun Wenbo's face grew even wider. This was the sentence he had been waiting for.

As the County Lieutenant of Luoshui County, he naturally held a high position and authority in Luoshui County Town, but it was only in Luoshui County. In the Fu City, he was nothing.

Now that he was old, although his cultivation in the mid-stage of the Bones Transformation Realm was not weak, as he got older, the decline of his Qi and blood was inevitable. He naturally had to consider his family and descendants. If this matter could allow his career to advance further, it would naturally be for the best.

"Then I thank Lord Zhang."

As they spoke, heart-wrenching roars suddenly came from the prison room made of refined iron.

The sound was neither human nor beast, making people feel a chill all over.

He had heard this kind of sound countless times during this period. Thinking of the appearance of those people, even though he was well-experienced, he couldn't help but feel a slight chill down his spine.

He couldn't help but ask.

"Lord Zhang, the mission is almost completed now. I wonder what is going on with these people?"

"County Lieutenant Sun, knowing some things may not be beneficial."

Zhang Han raised his eyebrows and said calmly.

Sun Wenbo's heart couldn't help but skip a beat, and he quickly forced a smile.

"It was Sun who was presumptuous. Thank you for your guidance, Lord Zhang."

Hearing this, Zhang Han's eyebrows relaxed, and his expression softened. As if considering that the mission was about to be completed, a smile appeared on his face.

"This matter is actually nothing, and it is not the intention of Tiannan Prefecture. It is promoted by Tianhong Pavilion. County Lieutenant Sun should also know who is behind Tianhong Pavilion. This matter is of crucial importance to the front-line war, and even our Tiannan has a Special Envoy supervising this matter."

"So that's how it is." Hearing this, a look of realization appeared on Sun Wenbo's face. As a person in official circles, he naturally knew what the three words Tianhong Pavilion represented in the Great Yan Kingdom.

Uh...

At this moment, a suppressed roar far exceeding the previous ones came from the depths of the prison, interrupting their conversation.

This roar carried a rather powerful pressure, causing both of their expressions to change.

Especially Sun Wenbo, who had rarely fought with others in recent years.

Hearing this roar at this moment made his heart pound uncontrollably.

"Oh, is there a reaction finally? As expected of a Bones Transformation Realm Martial Artist, it takes much longer than others."

The surprise on Zhang Han's face quickly disappeared, replaced by a smile. He said happily, and at the same time, he looked at Sun Wenbo again.

"County Lieutenant Sun, please wait outside for Lord Meng to return. Zhang will go and take a look."

"Okay, then I'll leave it to Lord Zhang."

Sun Wenbo understood that the other party was going to use some special means on these people again. He immediately nodded. Staying here made him constantly feel uneasy, and he had long wanted to leave quickly. After speaking, he turned around and left the prison room.

After he left, Zhang Han then stepped into the shadows of the prison room.

Many people were locked in the cages on both sides. At this moment, these people had hideous and painful expressions on their faces, and some were even rolling on the ground.

Zhang Han was accustomed to this and ignored them completely. After reaching the depths of the prison room, his gaze fell on the strong figure whose limbs were bound by cyan-gold chains and who was hanging on the wall.

At this moment, the strong figure also had a hideous and painful expression, struggling constantly, causing the cyan-gold chains to shake continuously.

On the rough skin, layers of fine scales were slowly growing outwards. The scales were dark green, shimmering with light, and even carried a fishy smell.

In addition, the figure's original brown pupils had strangely turned green, and the areas around his cheeks were already covered with scales.

"Oh, according to the Special Envoy, Bones Transformation Realm Martial Artists should not start beastification so quickly, unless this person's Bloodline is somewhat special and is extremely compatible with the Secret Art and secret medicine, which makes this possible."

Zhang Han's eyes lit up, and the smile on his face grew wider.

"I didn't expect to encounter such a person with a special Bloodline. Bringing him back will definitely satisfy the Special Envoy."

Just as he was thinking about what reward he would receive after returning, a muffled sound of opening a door suddenly came from outside.

Zhang Han couldn't help but frown, and there was a hint of displeasure in his voice. He said in a deep voice.

"County Lieutenant Sun, I remember telling you that without my permission, try not to disturb me..."

After speaking, he turned around and looked at the entrance of the prison room.

With a bang, a figure was thrown towards him. Zhang Han was surprised, but his reaction was very fast. He subconsciously wanted to kick the figure away, but when the figure got closer and he saw the other party's face, Zhang Han couldn't help but be shocked.

"County Lieutenant Sun!!"

He retracted his leg and raised his hand to catch the figure, but the powerful force made him retreat several steps uncontrollably before he stopped.

"County Lieutenant Sun, what's wrong with you!?"

Zhang Han asked, but the Sun Wenbo in his hand was already pale-faced, with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, and there was a head-sized hole in his chest.

"I... I..."

Sun Wenbo's eyes were filled with fear. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but as soon as he spoke, the light in his eyes dissipated, and his life force was cut off.

"Don't look, he's already dead."

At this moment, a low voice sounded from the entrance of the prison room, and then a tall figure walked down the steps slowly.

"Who are you? How dare you kill an Imperial Court official."

Zhang Han put down the corpse in his hand, his eyes narrowed as he stared intently at the newcomer.

"More of the same nonsense? But the one named Meng was much more subtle than you."

Lin Sheng said calmly, only glancing at Zhang Han, and his gaze fell on the cages on both sides.

Seeing the prisoners in the cages with hideous and violent expressions, he frowned.

"Capturing so many people, is this your purpose?"

He could clearly feel the violent aura of the prisoners in these cages.

The intensity of this violent aura had completely exceeded the range of normal people, reminding him of the beastification phenomenon that occurs after a Bones Transformation Realm Martial Artist fails to break through.

The situation of the people in the cages at this moment was quite similar to beastification.

What surprised him was that the prisoners held in these cages on both sides were all only Blood Transportation Warriors.

Only Martial Artists above the Bones Transformation Realm could possibly experience beastification and loss of control. What was the situation with these Blood Transportation Warriors now?

Vaguely, Lin Sheng felt as if he had stumbled into some secret.

Compared to Lin Sheng's surprise, the shock in Zhang Han's heart at this moment was far greater.

In just a few words, he had already understood that this person had already found Meng Ke. The person appearing before him now was not Meng Ke, and it was likely that Meng Ke had already...

"Even Meng Ke... How could there be such a master in a mere Luoshui County?"

He clenched his hand, this thought flashing through his mind.

He knew Meng Ke's strength very well. Although he was still young, his combat power was not inferior to a Late Stage Bones Transformation Realm Martial Artist, and he also had a trump card like the Great Demon Arrow in his hand.

Even Meng Ke had fallen. Zhang Han clearly understood that the strength of the person in front of him was definitely not something he could contend with. Thinking of this, he immediately grabbed the black jade stone hanging around his neck and, without hesitation, crushed it.

"No matter who you are, since you've come here, don't even think about leaving..."

As the jade stone was crushed, a piercing pain came from Zhang Han's palm, and a one-eyed tattoo had appeared in the center of his palm.

Strangely, the tattoo was like a living creature, constantly blinking in his palm. Feeling a strange connection appear, Zhang Han's heart settled, a cold smile appeared on his face, he raised his hand, and the single eye looked at Lin Sheng.

And at the same time, the hideous and violent prisoners in the cages on both sides suddenly stopped their movements, their gazes all falling on Lin Sheng.
