"Only I can take your life!"

Chen Yuan's lips curled into a cold smile.

The terrifying power of Huajin, like a surging river, erupted continuously within Liu Changkong's body, pulverizing his organs, flesh, and even every bone in his limbs.

This time, Chen Yuan gave Liu Changkong no chance whatsoever, launching a fatal move right from the start.

"Bang."

The long sword in Liu Changkong's hand fell to the ground. He stared in astonishment at the fist protruding from his chest, bewildered and uncomprehending.

Chen Yuan, wasn't he almost dead?

How could he...?

With his organs shattered, waves of excruciating pain flooded Liu Changkong's mind. He realized that he had truly miscalculated this time...

With his organs pulverized, there was no way to survive!

He had actually planned how to kill Chen Yuan and escape with his life, especially when he saw Gu Hao. He was overjoyed because his chances of survival would greatly increase.

This time, his self-inflicted death was merely a facade; he had other backup plans.

A Heart-Protecting Pill!

It was a spiritual pill he had obtained from the previous ruins. As long as his heart meridian was not severed, he could revive after an hour.

The Heart-Protecting Pill would continuously deliver vitality.

Therefore, he had asked Gu Hao to take his complete corpse away in case of any unforeseen circumstances. All his plans had been set, but he failed at the last moment.

Chen Yuan used Huajin to shatter his organs, including his heart meridian. Even if he had taken the Heart-Protecting Pill beforehand, he could not have revived...

This time, he was careless; he didn't dodge.

Liu Changkong turned his head slightly, making eye contact with Chen Yuan for a brief moment, and heard his voice:

"Don't you know that talking too much leads to death? Saying so much, you've made it difficult for yourself to even live!"

What did 'talking too much leads to death' mean?

Liu Changkong didn't understand, nor did he have the strength to ask. When his organs were shattered, all his vitality was destroyed, and all his strength was drained.

Through Chen Yuan's deep gaze, Liu Changkong vaguely saw his father and the others waving at him more clearly. So, it turned out...

They weren't waving to celebrate his revenge, but to tell him that he was about to die too, summoning his soul...

The Liu family couldn't avenge themselves, hehe...

This life was worth it.

He hoped his younger brother could live well and not seek revenge for himself and the Liu family. Chen Yuan was indeed very powerful and difficult to deal with. He had clearly planned everything...

But he still managed to escape the erosion of the evil aura. How did he do it?

With this question, Liu Changkong closed his eyes forever.

In that instant, a surge of majestic azure destiny was extracted from Liu Changkong's body and poured into the Destiny Altar in Chen Yuan's mind.

Chen Yuan vaguely felt the Destiny Altar rotating slightly, pausing for a moment. A new enlightenment of opportunity arose in Chen Yuan's mind, filling him with joy.

He was right; this time, the opportunity was the Yin Sha land he desperately needed.

The message received was:

"Nanling Prefecture, Crescent Moon Valley, Extreme Yin Blood Sha!"

"Bang!"

Chen Yuan retracted his fist. Without support, Liu Changkong's corpse fell to the ground with a thud.

The scene was silent!

The superiority was clear, and life and death had been decided!

No one expected such a reversal. Chen Yuan didn't lose but instead seized the opportunity to kill Liu Changkong, a dramatic turn of events!

Moreover, Chen Yuan's actions were swift, giving Liu Changkong and the others no chance to react, resulting in the current scene.

The joy on Bei Haisheng's face froze. He hadn't yet reacted; he only thought that Chen Yuan was bound to die this time, and his great revenge would be achieved.

But in this short period, a reversal occurred.

Liu Changkong was dead!

Killed by Chen Yuan with a single blow. Gradually, Bei Haisheng's face turned ugly, and he pondered how to kill Chen Yuan.

He couldn't wait any longer!

With the strength Chen Yuan had now displayed, even a Tiangang martial artist couldn't say they could defeat him with absolute certainty. No wonder he dared to stay at Listening Rain Pavilion and confront him directly.

It turned out he wasn't afraid of his strength at all.

Fortunately, he had restrained himself that day and didn't take action; otherwise, the outcome would have been uncertain.

When she saw Chen Yuan's fist piercing through Liu Changkong's chest, the worry on Shen Yanshu's face began to dissipate slowly, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

As expected, this man wouldn't die so easily.

"Miss, this Inspector Chen is so strong!"

Xiao Yu's face was filled with joy.

Worshiping the strong was everyone's nature, and she was no exception.

When Chen Yuan killed Bei Le before, Xiao Yu was filled with goodwill towards Chen Yuan, believing that he had helped her solve a problem.

"Only someone like this is worthy of you, Miss..." Xiao Yu couldn't help but say.

Looking at Chen Yuan, who stood on the high platform, expressionlessly surveying the audience, Xiao Yu felt that he was exceptionally domineering, making her legs clench involuntarily.

Such a man was what she yearned for!

In her opinion, as long as the Miss followed Inspector Chen, she herself could become a favored maid, which was exciting to think about.

Glancing at Xiao Yu, Shen Yanshu didn't answer.

Chen Yuan was indeed worthy of her, but the problem was... she was somewhat unworthy of Chen Yuan!

A Hidden Dragon List prodigy, holding a high position, with an imposing demeanor and outstanding appearance, was simply beyond her reach, unless Chen Yuan was interested in her Phoenix Marrow Spiritual Body...

Not far away, Ye Chenbai, who was observing the battlefield, looked at Chen Yuan suspiciously, puzzled. Liu Changkong had transferred his own evil aura to Chen Yuan's body,

How did he expel the evil aura from his body?

Before reaching the Ning Sha stage, the true energy in the body was extremely weak and couldn't compare with the evil aura. It was very difficult to expel unless a martial artist of a higher realm assisted.

And most importantly, Chen Yuan expelled the evil aura in just a few breaths, which really surprised him.

But he didn't delve too deeply. Everyone had secrets, and he was no exception. Perhaps Chen Yuan had a way to specifically restrain the evil aura.

"Lord, this Chen Yuan... is truly extraordinary!"

The old servant couldn't help but exclaim.

Reversing the situation in a desperate situation was the most exciting moment. They originally thought that Chen Yuan was bound to lose, and even felt some regret, but unexpectedly...

Unexpectedly, before they could react much, Chen Yuan reversed the situation.

"This person has extraordinary talent and hidden secrets... He is a rare talent in Qing Prefecture... We must befriend him in the future," Ye Chenbai thought to himself.

Chen Yuan's reversal and victory caused various expressions among the crowd.

Lu Yang showed a relieved smile, feeling that he hadn't been wrong. Chen Yuan wasn't that simple; he could find opportunities even in such a desperate situation.

He truly deserved Zhang Xuan's high regard.

Nie Qiyun's face was gloomy, and he remained silent.

As for Chen Yuan's subordinates, Yue Shan, Yang Feng, Mo Donghe, Yan Qing, and the others, they put down their hanging hearts. When Tao Qingyuan was about to take action, they had already drawn their knives.

They were ready to rush forward immediately, but now it seemed unnecessary.

"Well done!"

Tao Qingyuan's face lit up with joy, and the anger in his heart was swept away, replaced by joy for Chen Yuan. He even couldn't help but want to rescue him.

This Chen Yuan is good!

Lü Yuan's face remained unchanged, but his gaze towards Chen Yuan was also full of admiration. His victory wasn't just for himself but also for the authority of the imperial court.

He even prevented a great battle.

To be honest, he really didn't want to fight, especially when they were at a disadvantage. But this wasn't something he could control.

If Tao Qingyuan took action, he couldn't stay out of it either and would have to follow suit.

And if they took action, the Sky Survey Guards and the Armed Forces below would also move, and the entire Nanling Prefecture City might be thrown into chaos...

Shi Yunlong narrowed his eyes, his face as usual. He recognized Chen Yuan and knew that this guy wasn't a pushover. After all, he dared to kill Bei Le in the street. If Bei Haisheng hadn't been clever, the Chang Le Gang would have already been at odds with the government.

Apart from his grudges with Tang Qian, he didn't want to take action for this person, otherwise, it would discourage his subordinates, but this didn't prevent him from admiring Chen Yuan somewhat.

Ruthless in his actions, decisive in his style, amazing talent, extraordinary strength... These were all his evaluations of Chen Yuan.

It's a pity he's a government dog.

Tang Qian of the Azure Flood Dragon Society smiled imperceptibly, without any sign of embarrassment or anger. He was only helping out because of Gu Hao of the Azure Cloud Sword Sect. He didn't care about the outcome.

Who won or lost had nothing to do with him. He just regretted not being able to suppress the power of the imperial court a bit more. This world still belonged to the imperial court after all.

Fa Nan frowned, his Buddhist light retracted, and he didn't say much.

On the contrary, Gu Hao's reaction was surprising. Tao Qingyuan was already prepared to protect Chen Yuan, but he didn't react at all. His face was calm, as if the person who died below wasn't his junior brother, but an irrelevant passerby.

"Life and death struggles are matters between them, and Gu will not be like some people who can't help but intervene..." Gu Hao glanced at Tao Qingyuan with a hidden meaning.

"Hmph."

Tao Qingyuan responded with a cold snort.

Chen Yuan's gaze swept over thousands of people below the stage, seeing Yue Shan and the others, Shen Yanshu, as well as Bei Haisheng, Lin Beihan, and Chu Yunfeng.

However, there was no fluctuation on his face as he said in a solemn voice:

"Liu Changkong committed a capital crime, attacking Cao County's county government and openly provoking the authority of the Sky Survey Department. Today, I, the envoy, will execute him. If anyone disagrees, martial artists of the same realm can come and fight!"

Chen Yuan's loud voice resounded in everyone's ears.

"Inspector Chen won!"

"Haha, I knew it. How could Inspector Chen die when he's so strong?"

"That's right, that's right..."

"You weren't saying that before, were you?" someone retorted.

"Who can prove it? Anyway, I think Inspector Chen is amazing. He dared to kill that Bei Le guy, let alone a mere challenger."

"That's right, that's right..."

"Inspector Chen is truly invincible!"

"Truly a model for us!"
