Zhui Ningkuang immediately strode forward and bowed respectfully: "Master, you've arrived!"

"Is there anything you need from me today?"

His humble demeanor was a stark contrast to his previous role as the leader of the Blood Chaser Gang.

"Liu Xue, any news?"

Upon hearing this, Zhui Ningkuang's smile froze.
"Reporting to...Master, regarding the news about Liu Xue...this subordinate...this subordinate is still investigating..."

"It's been so long, and there's still no news?"

Ye Tian frowned and questioned him.

"Master, please forgive me!"

Zhui Ningkuang immediately knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly.

"Your subordinate... Your subordinate is incompetent and has failed to live up to your master's expectations..."

Ye Tian said helplessly, "Never mind."

"Bring me all the information we've gathered about Liu Xue so far."

"Yes Yes!"

Zhui Ningkuang felt as if he had been granted a pardon and quickly got up.

He took out a blood crystal from his storage ring and presented it with both hands.

Ye Tian took the blood crystal and probed it with his divine sense.

"Yes, Liu Xue."

A moment later, he threw the blood crystal back onto the table.

Ye Tian angrily asked, "Is that all?"

The information on the jade slip was incomplete, only mentioning that Liu Xue seemed to be related to a mysterious organization in the Holy Blood Realm.

However, the specific organization remains unclear.

"Yes...yes, Master, that's all I've found out so far...Regarding that mysterious organization, I...I'm also investigating..."

"Keep investigating! I need to know everything about Liu Xue!"

Ye Tian pointed at Ning Kuang's head and scolded him.

"Yes...yes! Your subordinate will do everything in his power!"

Zhui Ningkuang quickly replied.

About Liu Xue and that mysterious organization.

He used almost every available resource, but still made no progress.

He secretly lamented, "Where am I supposed to find another one?"

"I have something else to ask you."

Zhui Ningkuang quickly replied, "Please speak, my lord!"

After pondering for a moment, Ye Tian took out an official robe from his storage ring.

"Look at this official robe, do you recognize it?"

When Zhui Ningkuang saw the official robe, his expression changed drastically.

"This...this is a county magistrate's robe directly issued by the Holy Blood Realm's imperial court!"

"I know."

Ye Tian waved impatiently.

"Tell me about the Holy Blood Realm Court first."

"My lord..."

Zhui Ningkuang hesitated, unsure whether he should ask the question.

"Ok?"

Before Zhui Ningkuang could even voice his question, he was silenced by Ye Tian's gaze.

"Just tell me what they do."

Upon hearing Ye Tian's words, Zhui Ningkuang quickly replied:
"They have the potential to control everything in the Holy Blood Realm."

"Well, keep talking."

Ye Tian's tone relaxed, and Zhui Ningkuang continued:
"Usually, a county magistrate is sent to manage this small branch of the Holy Blood Realm."

"Our Holy Blood Minor Boundary?"

Ye Tian raised an eyebrow, recalling some things from the past.

"Yes...yes, sir, each magistrate manages the territory of each person."

Zhui Ningkuang was startled; he didn't understand why Ye Tian would ask such a basic question.

But after thinking for a moment, he mustered his courage and asked:

"Master, are you from the outside world?"

"Ah."

Ye Tian surprisingly admitted it.

"I'll ask you again, what if you hear people from other counties coming?"

"Then he is definitely lying to you, sir!"

Upon hearing this, Zhui Ningkuang solemnly assured him.

"Without the magistrate's permission, the entire boundary is closed, and they cannot enter."

Upon hearing this, Ye Tian recalled when he first arrived in the Holy Blood Realm. It seemed that not only was he deceiving the other party, but they were also deceiving him!

He then thought of the Blood Gate he entered the Holy Blood Realm and asked.

"Have you ever heard of the Blood Gate?"

"Never heard of it?"

Hearing something strange, Zhui Ningkuang chimed in:

"My lord, you...you didn't come from that so-called Blood Gate, did you?"

"Is there another way to get in?"

Ye Tian was completely dumbfounded.

"Yes, sir."

Zhui Ningkuang quickly added, "There is a teleportation array in our Blood Plains City."

"Whether it's going to other boundaries or other worlds, it's all the same."

Ye Tian suddenly clutched his head and cursed, "I'm such a bastard!"

"I should have realized this sooner! That Liu Xue is probably an alias too!"

At this point, Zhui Ningkuang didn't know what to say, so he simply kept quiet.

Ye Tian then asked:

"What level of cultivation do county magistrates typically possess?"

Zhui Ningkuang immediately replied, "The main realm of the Holy Blood Realm is basically all in the early stage of Ascension. Once you reach the middle stage, you can become a minor official."

"Later on, he could become a county magistrate and govern a region."

"then you?"

Upon hearing this, Zhui Ningkuang replied somewhat embarrassedly, "I came to this branch realm because I couldn't make it in the main realm anymore."

At this point, some of Ye Tian's questions were finally answered.

Ye Tian asked the last question on his mind: "Is the magistrate of Xueyuan County still alive?"

Zhui Ningkuang was stunned, and unconsciously thought to himself, "No way? No way? Did that official in the robes steal it?"

Seeing that Zhui Ningkuang remained silent, Ye Tian stopped asking him questions.

Seeing is believing, and besides...

Where can you find a proper teleportation array?

"I need to go to Blood Plains City."

After saying this, Ye Tian disappeared from the main hall of Tianchen Pavilion.

Only Zhui Ningkuang remained kneeling on the ground, drenched in cold sweat.

"Let's not do anything big, let's just lie down and collect money."

Upon realizing this, Zhui Ning burst into laughter.

He sat back on 'his' throne.

the other side.

Ye Tian's speed was astonishing; he arrived at Blood Plains City in less than half a day.

Blood Plains City, the center of the Holy Blood Minor Boundary, is also the location of the only teleportation array.

Ye Tian entered the city.

The streets are lined with shops, a dazzling array that is hard to look away from.

After asking around, Ye Tian finally found the location of the teleportation array.

The building was surrounded by guards, all dressed in standard armor and with serious expressions.

Ye Tian walked to the gate, where a guard stopped him.

"Who goes there? What brings you here?"

Ye Tian took out the official robe: "I have come by order to report important matters to the magistrate."

Upon seeing the official robes, the guard immediately bowed and said, "So it is Your Excellency who has arrived. I was blind to your greatness and beg your forgiveness!"

"Please come in, sir. I will go and inform the magistrate immediately."

The guards respectfully led Ye Tian into the main hall.

Inside the main hall, a middle-aged man was sitting in a chair, resting with his eyes closed.

Hearing footsteps, he slowly opened his eyes and looked at Ye Tian.

"What is it you wish to report?"

Ye Tian cupped his hands in greeting: "My name is Shi Chen, and I greet Your Excellency, the County Magistrate."

The middle-aged man sized Ye Tian up and down.

"Shi Chen, is that the young hero who wiped out the Blood Chasing Gang in Bloodflow City?"

"Your Excellency, you are so complimentary."

Ye Tian gave his answer, but inwardly he wondered, "If the magistrate of Xueyuan County is still alive, then how did I get my official robe?"

"My lord, there is something I do not understand, and I hope you can enlighten me."

Ye Tian cupped his hands in greeting.

The magistrate stroked his beard: "Young Master Shi, please speak freely." (End of Chapter)
