Chen Yuan had been transmigrated for exactly two months. He had jumped from the Skin Refinement level to the Bone Refinement level, which was no simple feat.

In these two months, Chen Yuan had hardly rested, but it was worth it.

Because Chen Yuan finally possessed a sliver of self-preservation.

After all, there were no more than ten Bone Refinement experts in Peace County on the surface.

And after Chen Yuan's strength entered the Bone Refinement stage, the strength he possessed, even if not invincible in the same realm, was definitely extremely strong.

Within Peace County, the only ones who could threaten Chen Yuan were probably those at the Coagulating Core level.

But how many Coagulating Core experts were there in the entire Peace County area? Just a few.

Standing up, Chen Yuan jumped down from the cyan boulder, put on the clothes he had prepared on the ground, and gently twisted his neck.

A series of cracking sounds erupted.

Afterwards, Chen Yuan came to a somewhat thick tree, stomped his feet, and gathered the blood and qi of his whole body at one point, suddenly blasting out his right fist.

"Bang!"

The tree was instantly broken by this powerful impact.

A thousand pounds of force!

This punch was at least a thousand pounds!

The corners of Chen Yuan's mouth hooked up. After starting Bone Refinement, the strength of his physical body did indeed explode a lot.

This was the joy of cultivation, gradually becoming stronger from a humble state.

Isn't this better than making love?

Chen Yuan stood with his hands behind his back, looking calmly in the direction of the north of the city. There, was Cien Temple, which he suspected was the hiding place of the Unborn Church.

Now, it was finally time to take action.

"Blood Fiend Blade..."

The corners of Chen Yuan's mouth rose slightly, his expression full of interest.

A high-quality blade brought an extremely strong boost to one's combat power. Given the properties of the Luck Altar, the value of this thing was definitely no less than the Marrow Cleansing Spiritual Pearl and the Vajra Glazed Body.

He was looking forward to it.

Of course, Chen Yuan wouldn't be foolish enough to directly barge in. That would be simply courting death.

It was true that he possessed a sliver of self-preservation, but it was only a sliver. He was still unable to face a Coagulating Core expert.

Only a Coagulating Core expert could deal with a Coagulating Core expert!

Since Li Mingqi and Wu Qingfeng were unwilling to lift the lid, he would start it.

Chen Yuan had previously witnessed the attitude of that Inspector Zhang of the Sky Survey Division towards the Unborn Church. It was absolute zero tolerance!

This gave him an opportunity.

He had decided to first investigate Cien Temple to confirm his suspicions, and then personally visit Inspector Zhang in the Sky Survey Division of Nanling Prefecture.

Let the Sky Survey Division deal with the demonic members of the Unborn Church.

And he would hide behind the scenes as much as possible.

Of course, Chen Yuan might not get the Blood Fiend Blade because of the Sky Survey Division's intervention, but this was the only method he had at the moment.

He could not risk his life to break into Cien Temple.

If he was caught and turned into a blood slave, and his blood was drawn daily to be refined into blood pills, no one would save him.

Whether the Sky Survey Division would take action was also a question. If things didn't go according to his plan, he could only slowly think of other methods.

After remaining silent on the mountaintop for a long time, Chen Yuan descended the mountain alone.

......

......

After returning to Peace County, Chen Yuan did not immediately go to the County Office, but first returned to the small courtyard in the north of the city.

Carefully examining the front of the door, Chen Yuan's expression was calm. No one had trespassed here, at least, without leaving any traces.

Having been away for seven days, Chen Yuan cleaned and tidied up the small courtyard.

After that, he went to a nearby restaurant and had a hearty meal to make up for the bland taste of the past few days.

Chen Yuan brought seven days of rations, but they weren't abundant, only enough to fill his stomach. He had been craving meat for a long time.

For the Foundation Establishment realm, meat was also an indispensable supplement.

"Brother Yuan, Brother Yuan."

Just as he was eating meat, and about to drink some wine to moisten his throat, Wang Ping's voice came from afar, followed by a series of 'thump, thump, thump' footsteps.

Wang Ping took a deep breath, sat down opposite Chen Yuan, picked up the teapot directly, and poured the water into his mouth.

"What's the matter? So urgent?"

Chen Yuan frowned.

Could it be that something had happened at Cien Temple during the few days he was in seclusion to break through?

Could it be such a coincidence...

"The... the County Commandant wants you."

Wang Ping breathed a sigh of relief.

"Wants me? What for?"

"I'm not too sure, but I heard it was about those bandits before..." Wang Ping quickly told Chen Yuan the information he knew truthfully.

"Bandits..." Chen Yuan's eyes flickered.

He subconsciously guessed the true identities of those bandits. Otherwise, there was no need for Li Mingqi to be in such a hurry to find him.

"He started looking for you yesterday, but Brother Yuan, you said not to let anyone disturb you, so I tried to push it back. I've been wandering around your house today."

"I heard from Afang just now that she saw you coming this way, so I quickly chased after you."

Chen Yuan nodded slightly. Since Wang Ping could block it, it shouldn't be anything particularly urgent.

"Has anything happened in the county these past few days?" Chen Yuan picked up a chopstick of meat and put it in his mouth, asking unhurriedly.

Wang Ping shook his head:

"Nothing major has happened, but a few children in the north of the city drowned in the river outside the city."

"Their bodies haven't been found, have they..."

Chen Yuan asked.

A hint of confusion flashed in Wang Ping's eyes:

"Brother Yuan, you know?"

"A guess."

Unsurprisingly, it must have been done by the Unborn Church, but Chen Yuan did not reveal it to Wang Ping.

"Brother Yuan, you're really amazing, you can even guess that."

Wang Ping scratched the back of his neck.

Drinking the wine in his cup, Chen Yuan stood up:

"Let's go, let's go to the County Office and see what the County Commandant wants me for."

......

Peace County County Office.

Chen Yuan walked into the constabulary with a calm expression. All the constables came forward to report the situation of the past few days. Overall, it was still relatively stable. As for those children...

Now they can only be counted as missing, not murder cases.

The constables in the yamen wouldn't pay much attention to investigating, after all, the families of those children were relatively ordinary.

After dealing with some of the trivial matters left over from the past few days in the constabulary, Chen Yuan went to the yamen where County Commandant Li Mingqi was located.

"Subordinate greets the Commandant."

After being led in by a constable, Chen Yuan saw Li Mingqi sitting at the head with a calm expression, and quickly cupped his hands in salute.

"Sit."

Li Mingqi pointed to the chair in front of Chen Yuan.

"I heard from Wang Ping that the Commandant was looking for subordinate yesterday?" Chen Yuan went straight to the point.

"You haven't been at home these past few days?"

Chen Yuan shook his head:

"I've been tracking the traces of the Unborn Church's demonic members."

"Did you find any traces?"

A look of frustration flashed across Chen Yuan's face:

"Those demonic members are hiding too deeply, subordinate..."

"If it's difficult to investigate, put it aside for now. The duty of the constable is still to apprehend criminals and maintain public order..." Li Mingqi said in a low voice.

"The Commandant is right, subordinate understands."

"The reason I was looking for you yesterday was that people from the Sky Survey Division of the Prefecture came to inquire about the escaped soldiers." Li Mingqi continued.
