But...

The secret of the Marrow Cleansing Spiritual Pearl was only known to his father, Huang Shengnian, in the entire Huang family. Even he only learned about it today when Huang Shengnian handed the pearl over.

This Marrow Cleansing Spiritual Pearl was obtained by the previous Huang family head from a ruin by chance. It has been passed down for nearly fifty years and has never been leaked.

Even the people of the Unborn Church didn't know. How did the constable in front of him find out?

Huang Family Second Son was very puzzled!

"You want to know?" Chen Yuan walked closer, raising an eyebrow slightly.

"Yes."

Huang Family Second Son nodded heavily.

"First tell me, how to use the Marrow Cleansing Spiritual Pearl." Chen Yuan said expressionlessly.

He guessed that the pearl was swallowed, but he wasn't sure if that was the case. It would be best if Huang Family Second Son could tell him.

Huang Family Second Son squinted:

"So you only know this thing exists in my Huang family."

"Isn't that enough?"

Feeling the weakness in his body, Huang Family Second Son took a deep breath and said:

"Grind this thing into powder and apply it externally to the body."

Chen Yuan nodded:

"As expected, internal use!"

A hint of surprise flashed in Huang Family Second Son's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by understanding.

This guy really wasn't that easy to fool.

"Can you tell me now?" Huang Family Second Son asked.

Chen Yuan stepped forward and whispered:

"I dreamt about it."

Then, without giving Huang Family Second Son a chance to speak, he placed a palm on the top of his head.

Eyes, nose, mouth... Huang Erlang bled from all seven orifices and collapsed to the ground with a thud.

The hall was silent. The three corpses on the ground were stacked together. To prevent any accidents, Chen Yuan wanted to destroy the scene.

Otherwise, it would be too easy to be noticed if he was the only one left alive.

Fortunately, Tie Xuan had already ordered most of the yamen runners to leave the Huang family to track down Huang Family Second Son.

Chen Yuan expressionlessly tore off the curtains, covered the three corpses, picked up a candle and threw it on them. The lamp oil in the entire hall was poured on them everywhere.

"Boom!"

The flames ignited instantly. Chen Yuan could clearly see their bodies shrinking and their hair burning away.

After a long time, when the three corpses were unrecognizable, and some places had even turned into charcoal, Chen Yuan expressionlessly placed the flames in every corner of the hall.

Chen Yuan walked out of the hall with a calm expression, behind him were raging flames.

Murder and arson!

"There are still Unborn Church thieves hiding, come and put out the fire!"

Chen Yuan's throat tightened slightly, and he let out a roar.

......

......

Chen Yuan's fire destroyed most of the Huang family. The bright flames could be seen from half of the county town. County Magistrate Wu Qingfeng and County Commandant Li Mingqi personally came to the vicinity of the Huang family to oversee the situation under the protection of a group of yamen runners.

"Where is Tie Xuan? Summon Tie Xuan to see this official immediately!"

There was a hint of imperceptible coldness on Wu Qingfeng's face, and his eyes were focused. He had told Tie Xuan to destroy the Huang family, but not to ruin it. Most importantly, Tie Xuan's men had searched the entire Huang family but only found less than a thousand taels of silver.

After that, there was a fire that engulfed the entire Huang family.

Several of Tie Xuan's confidants knelt down in front of Wu Qingfeng and Li Mingqi, crying and saying:

"Your Honor, the prison warden... he hasn't come out since entering the Huang family."

Wu Qingfeng's pupils shrank, and he quickly asked:

"Tie Xuan hasn't come out?"

"Yes, someone shouted earlier, saying... saying that there were Unborn Church thieves hiding in the Huang family, the prison warden he..." The yamen runner didn't finish speaking and lowered his head.

The meaning was self-evident.

"Who shouted?" County Magistrate Wu Qingfeng asked with a frown.

At this moment, he already had a faint premonition in his heart, and the fists under his sleeves clenched involuntarily.

It wasn't because he was angry about Tie Xuan's death, but because the events that had happened today were completely beyond his expectations.

The people from the Sky Patrol Office were now nowhere to be found, and he couldn't control those people.

"The crowd was too chaotic. This humble servant asked several people, but couldn't find out who shouted." That person shook his head.

"Why did Tie Xuan separate from you?" Li Mingqi suddenly asked.

The yamen runner hesitated for a moment and continued:

"The prison warden ordered us to track down the whereabouts of Huang Family Second Son. When he left, this subordinate only noticed that only Zhao Yang and someone named Chen Yuan were following the prison warden."

"After that, it was..."

"Are Zhao Yang and Chen Yuan still alive?" Li Mingqi squinted his eyes.

Although Tie Xuan wasn't from his faction, and even crippled Huang Xing, he was still one of his subordinates. As his direct superior, it would be inappropriate if he didn't say anything.

The Huang family was colluding with the Unborn Church. The most important thing he had to do now was to avoid any connection with demonic cultivators.

"Zhao Yang is missing. Chen Yuan suffered some minor injuries and is currently helping to put out the fire."

"Bring him here. This official has something to ask him!" Li Mingqi said in a low voice.

Wu Qingfeng glanced at Li Mingqi, then slowly turned his gaze to the fire in front of him. At this moment, the fire had been brought under control. The fire itself had started from the Huang family hall. As long as it was separated, it wouldn't be difficult to extinguish the fire with the help of a large number of yamen runners and laborers.

When Chen Yuan was stopped by the yamen runner, he didn't show any abnormality. His face was black and there was some blood on his body.

"This humble servant greets the two Your Honors!"

Chen Yuan walked in front of Li Mingqi and Wu Qingfeng, bowed and cupped his hands.

"You are Chen Yuan?" Li Mingqi looked him up and down, his gaze lingering on Chen Yuan's face and the blood on his body for a moment.

"This humble servant is Chen Yuan."

"Were you always with Tie Xuan before?"

"Reporting to Your Honor, this humble servant was indeed following Tie Xuan before."

Chen Yuan said truthfully.

He understood that many people had seen him with Tie Xuan, so it was impossible to argue. He could only admit it and use the facts to speak for themselves.

"Then where is he? Have you seen him?" Li Mingqi asked in a deep voice.

Chen Yuan thought for a moment, hesitated for a while, and said:

"This humble servant was previously ordered by the prison warden to interrogate Huang Capt... Huang Xing and Huang Shengnian about the whereabouts of Huang Family Second Son. However, not long after leaving the Huang family, a fire broke out within the Huang family, so this humble servant did not go and had to help put out the fire."

"As for the whereabouts of the prison warden, when this humble servant left, he was still in the hall. Zhao... Zhao Yang was always with the prison warden."

Wu Qingfeng stared at Chen Yuan, stepped forward slowly, his eyes moved, and suddenly shouted:

"You're lying! Several people can prove that you and Zhao Yang were always with Tie Xuan and never left. Quickly confess the truth!"

Chen Yuan pretended to be panicked and hurriedly bowed and said:

"Your Honor, please have mercy! This humble servant was really sent by Warden Tie to interrogate the whereabouts of Huang Family Second Son and would never dare to hide anything."
