Yue Shan and the others beside him felt somewhat strange. They had already prepared for a confrontation, but they didn't expect Bei Haisheng to not make a move. Instead, he was thanking Chen Yuan, the man who killed his son.

Truly strange!

"Alright, then I'll thank Inspector Chen."

Bei Haisheng smiled, narrowing his eyes.

"You're welcome. Chen is always happy to help!"

"Farewell. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future... Hehe." Bei Haisheng chuckled and turned to leave. The Chang Le Gang members behind him didn't dare to object and quickly followed him.

Chen Yuan watched him leave, thinking to himself:

"The old fox is no simple character!"

To be able to endure the pain of losing a son and still be able to laugh and talk, such a person is very patient and equally terrifying. Therefore, Chen Yuan was not only not relaxed in his vigilance against him, but even more wary.

He pondered in his heart that he must kill this old ghost if he has the opportunity in the future!

Only then could he be at ease.

Bei Haisheng walked outside and glanced back, his eyes becoming more and more fierce.

Chen Yuan must be eliminated!

To have such potential at such a young age, his future achievements are limitless.

If he doesn't make a move, Chen Yuan will probably strike first...

"What a pity..."

Bei Haisheng sighed softly and looked around. Attacking a Sky Patrolling Envoy in broad daylight would surely invite retaliation from the Sky Patrolling Division.

Now is not the time to act.

There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. He snorted coldly, flicked his embroidered robe, his face full of coldness.

The Chang Le Gang members in front of him consciously cleared a path for him to pass.

"Sir, what about us..."

Yang Feng looked at Chen Yuan, asking what to do next.

"The matter is finished, let's return to the yamen!"

Chen Yuan said softly.

Unbeknownst to everyone, on the rooftop of a distant high building, a middle-aged man in a black robe with a full beard was quietly observing this scene.

No one noticed his figure.

But if his whereabouts were discovered, he would definitely be recognized.

Because he is Shi Yunlong, the leader of the Chang Le Gang, one of the five major forces in Nanling Prefecture.

His power in Nanling Prefecture ranks among the top ten, and his strength is unfathomable for a Coagulating Qi Realm martial artist!

At this moment, he stared at the situation below with no expression on his face, wondering what he was thinking.

When Bei Haisheng mobilized the Chang Le Gang members, he had already learned about it and followed him secretly to the vicinity of Listening Rain Pavilion to see what was going on.

If necessary, he would even prevent Bei Haisheng from taking action.

Now is not the time for the Chang Le Gang to be in full conflict with the Sky Patrolling Division.

The Azure Flood Dragon Society has already begun to erode the Chang Le Gang's sphere of influence. What he needs to do now is to unite other forces to fight against the pressure from the Azure Flood Dragon Society.

Fortunately, Bei Haisheng's brain was not muddled.

Even if he does take action, it's best not to do it in public.

Because in that case, even if the Sky Patrolling Division is unwilling to act, the pressure from above and below will force them to retaliate against the Chang Le Gang. Otherwise, how can they appease the people below?

"Brother Yunlong, long time no see."

A faint voice entered Shi Yunlong's ears, but he was not surprised at all. Instead, he said softly:

"Since Brother Qingyuan has arrived, why not show yourself?"

"Since Brother Yunlong hasn't shown himself, why should this Envoy show himself?"

As soon as the words fell, a residual image instantly leaped up from a hundred meters away and came to Shi Yunlong's side. It was Tao Qingyuan, the Azure Envoy of the Sky Patrolling Division!

Shi Yunlong glanced at him:

"Brother Qingyuan values this Chen Yuan very much, to personally escort him."

Tao Qingyuan smiled:

"The Sky Patrolling Division doesn't have many talented people, and Chen Yuan is one of them. It would be fine if it was a contest of the same level, and life and death were up to fate, but if someone bullied the weak, it wouldn't be good.

If this Envoy doesn't come forward to help, others will think that the Sky Patrolling Division is made of paper."

His tone was vaguely threatening, warning Shi Yunlong not to bully the weak, otherwise the Sky Patrolling Division would definitely take action.

"It seems that Brother Qingyuan's injuries have healed."

Shi Yunlong said, looking him up and down.

"What are some minor injuries worth?"

"Hehe..." Shi Yunlong laughed twice.

"I heard that the Chang Le Gang's situation hasn't been good lately. The Azure Flood Dragon Society has already begun to erode the Chang Le Gang's sphere of influence. Is Brother Yunlong preparing to fight back?"

Tao Qingyuan asked with interest.

"This is no concern of Brother Qingyuan."

"Haha, alright. Since Brother Yunlong doesn't want to mention it, then I won't say more. But if you have any difficulties in the future, you might as well come to this Envoy.

The Sky Patrolling Division will definitely lend a helping hand."

The five major forces in Nanling Prefecture have long had rifts. Tao Qingyuan couldn't be happier if they fought each other. Otherwise, how could he alienate them? If Shi Yunlong agrees, Tao Qingyuan would be very happy.

"Then thank you, Envoy Tao. Well, since the conflict has subsided, then I won't stay any longer. Farewell!" Shi Yunlong snorted softly, turned and left.

His figure suddenly leaped up, and after a few somersaults, disappeared in front of Tao Qingyuan.

He watched Shi Yunlong's figure gradually disappear, his eyes narrowed, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

......

......

After Bei Haisheng left, what happened today completely spread from the west of the city to the entire city, causing a small storm that made people suspicious.

If it were someone else, perhaps there would be no such commotion.

But both sides are not simple characters, and their reputations are extremely high.

Bei Le has dominated the west and south of the city for several years, and his reputation as a bully has long spread throughout the city. Everyone knows what kind of person he is, while Chen Yuan recently made it onto the Hidden Dragon List.

Many people still have a deep impression of him, and they know who he is as soon as he is mentioned.

That's why it caused such a big shock.

Bei Le's death made countless people rejoice and couldn't help but clap their hands in joy. Even the impression of the Sky Patrolling Division improved a lot. Chen Yuan's name began to be associated with more than just the words "government dog".

It was also added to "punishing evil and eliminating violence, and maintaining peace and order."

Daring to kill the son of the Chang Le Gang's deputy leader in the street, and even render them helpless, not even daring to provoke a conflict, proves that Chen Yuan is an extraordinary person.

Many people also became curious about him.

West of the city, the Shen family.

With a worried look on her face, Shen Yanshu looked at the long sword in her hand silently. After being oppressed by the Bei family, she had not left the Shen residence, lest she meet Bei Le, that bastard, and couldn't help but castrate him.

But she also knew that waiting idly was meaningless.

Fortunately, that guy last night promised to help her solve the trouble of Bei Le.

Although she didn't know what he would do or whether he would succeed.

But he is really her only hope now.

She desperately hopes to hear good news.

However, this possibility is not very high.

Bei Haisheng's power and strength are unmatched by ordinary people. His Celestial Dipper Realm cultivation is enough to make people despair.

Since that masked man is so covetous of that phoenix marrow energy, he will probably do his best to do this...

Shen Yanshu sighed and shook her head slightly.

"Miss, Miss."

Suddenly, a shout from Xiao Yu came from outside.

Subconsciously, she immediately stood up and grasped the long sword in her hand, preparing to go out.

But before she could walk out the door, Xiao Yu, with a look of surprise on her face, ran in directly, almost bumping into her.

"Why are you so flustered? What happened?"

There was a look of tension on Shen Yanshu's face.

"Miss... there's... there's a great joy."

Xiao Yu supported the table, breathing heavily, the joy on her face could not be concealed.

"What joy?"

Shen Yanshu asked quickly.

The moment she asked, she even thought if that guy last night had succeeded, but quickly dismissed it. How could the Bei family be so easy to deal with?

"I heard the news that Bei... Bei Le, that dog, is dead."

"Dead?"

There was some shock on Shen Yanshu's face.

That guy really did it. He... directly killed Bei Le!

"Yes, dead. I heard that his head was cut off with a knife, right inside Listening Rain Pavilion."

"Who did it?"

She desperately wanted to know who the person behind the mask was, but at the same time, she didn't want to hear the news that the murderer had run away, because in that case, the Shen family would bear unimaginable pressure.

Bei Haisheng will definitely place his hatred on the Shen family.

"It's Sky Patrolling Envoy Chen Yuan that you mentioned before, Miss!"

Xiao Yu told the truth.

"Sky Patrolling Envoy, Chen Yuan!"

Shen Yanshu's eyes widened, somewhat incredulous.

She had naturally heard of Chen Yuan's name before. He was not yet twenty years old, killed several Coagulating Qi Realm experts in one battle, and powerfully entered the Hidden Dragon List, becoming famous in Nanling Prefecture.

It can be said that he is her goal.

She never expected that the real identity of that masked man was him.

Xiao Yu looked at Shen Yanshu strangely, not knowing why she had such a big reaction, as if she was very incredulous. Could it be that she was overwhelmed by Bei Le's death?

It should be.

"And then? After Chen Yuan killed Bei Le, what was Bei Haisheng's reaction? Did they fight?" Shen Yanshu asked very concerned.

She knew that Chen Yuan had just become a Sky Patrolling Envoy not long ago, and his strength should still be at the Qi Induction Realm. If they fought, he would probably not be Bei Haisheng's opponent...

If he couldn't withstand the pressure and told her about it...

The Shen family would probably suffer a catastrophe.

"No, at that time..."

Xiao Yu carefully recounted the situation at that time, as if she was also there.

After listening, Shen Yanshu breathed a sigh of relief. They didn't fight... Bei Haisheng retreated.

He shouldn't associate it with the Shen family.

"Miss, you can finally breathe a sigh of relief."

"Yeah."

......

......

Late at night.

Shen Yanshu sat alone in the room, the lit candles reflecting on her face, her expression calm, as if she was waiting for someone to arrive.

Since the masked man had done what he had promised her, then he would probably come to collect the reward 'phoenix marrow energy' tonight.

She had no intention of resisting. Bei Haisheng had retreated, let alone her, a mere Foundation Establishment Realm martial artist.

"Swish..."

Shen Yanshu suddenly raised her head, her expression froze, and her eyes turned to the door.

"Brother Chen is here?"

"What, Miss Shen doesn't welcome me?"

A faint voice entered the room.

Shen Yanshu smiled:

"Of course not. Now that Brother Chen is here, I will naturally welcome you wholeheartedly."
