Chapter 174 Lawless (Subscribe)

Lin Rui had known for a long time that there was a demon dragon in Wangcheng County, which was a serious threat to Wangcheng.

It is said that this demon is as high as the sixth realm and has royal blood. It once ravaged the lower reaches of the Tianxiang River, causing floods, blocking shipping, extorting blood and food from the people along the river, and blackmailing money and property from merchants along the way.

Until a few months ago, the evil dragon was seriously injured by the county governor and others.

Unfortunately, the evil dragon managed to escape and has been lurking under the Tianxiang River without a trace.

In order to prevent the evil dragon from taking revenge, Wangcheng County had no choice but to station thousands of soldiers by the riverbank, ready to fight day and night. Even the county lieutenant was forced to patrol around the river day and night and dared not leave easily.

Did this dragon recover so quickly?

This is really terrible news for Wangcheng County.

The sixth realm of dragon transformation is equivalent to the strength of a federal major general. In this small county town, it is like a crocodile in a pond, an almost unstoppable existence.

I don't know how the county magistrate and his men injured it a few months ago.

Lin Rui secretly felt lucky. Fortunately, he had acted early. The merchant ships in Jinggang had already carried a large amount of Shenxin Tea north to the capital more than ten days ago. Otherwise, the current situation would be several times more complicated.

These merchant ships were blocked in Wangcheng, and the garrison commander above would certainly be dissatisfied and doubt his ability.

Lin Rui bowed to County Magistrate Dong Linghui and said, "Don't worry, Your Excellency, I have some troubles to deal with and I need to make some preparations. I will definitely rush to reinforce you within half a minute at most."

Dong Linghui's expression relaxed upon hearing this, and he bowed with a hint of gratitude, saying, "The Defense Envoy is indeed very understanding of justice. This is truly a blessing for the people of Wangcheng!"

In his opinion, Lin Twelve's arrival was indeed a surprise.

This new defender is much stronger and more capable than the previous one.

Therefore, Wangcheng was actively recruiting people in the city, and the county government was trying its best to cooperate.

Although their county government and Wangchengdu have been at odds for many years, at this moment when they are short of manpower and the demons and gangsters in the city are becoming more and more rampant and crazy, Wangchengdu's newly recruited No. 200 Dragon Guards and several fourth-level martial arts captains are really like a stabilizing force.

The county governor, county lieutenant, county chancellor and defense envoy are the four pillars of Wangcheng County. If they cannot work together at this time, the situation will be bad.

The scene of Blood Knife Princess fighting the three Censors alone today made Dong Linghui even more shocked and happy. The strength of this fourth-level super emperor seemed to have greatly improved!
However, the conflict between Lin Twelve and the Censor also made him worried.

This defense envoy was so ferocious that not only did he dare to detain the people of the Censorate, he also confronted three fifth-rank Censorate Assistants for more than ten days. Today, he even fought with the Censorate in broad daylight at the crowded place at the North Gate with knives.

However, after a slight hesitation, he wisely kept his mouth shut and turned into a black beam of light, flying towards the riverbank outside the city.

This Lin Twelve was obviously a rebellious and difficult guy. Moreover, Dong Linghui didn't understand the source of the conflict between the two families, and it had nothing to do with this matter, so there was no need to get involved.

Dong Linghui is now more worried about the battle situation between the county governor and the county lieutenant, and is worried that the two of them can't hold on.

At this time, Li Li, Wang Sen and others also returned from outside the yamen one after another.

"grown ups!"

Li Li was originally very happy. In the melee with the Chief Justice today, he hid in the crowd and took the opportunity to seriously injure two chief judges of the Chief Justice.

Even his teacher Han Kedao took advantage of the situation to trick Wang Tiandong. He suddenly attacked in a dark alley and slapped Wang Tiandong on the back.

This was a rare opportunity to weaken the power of the Supreme Court, so naturally the master and disciple would spare no effort.

Until he heard what the county magistrate said outside the yamen.

Li Li said solemnly, "My lord, although that demon dragon cannot truly transform into a dragon, it already possesses dragon armor. Its true combat power is no less than that of a transformed dragon. It is extremely formidable. This creature is also cunning and treacherous. My lord, you must be extremely careful when you go there."

Just a few months ago, the master and disciple had actually seen that demon dragon and nearly fell into the hands of that demon. Lin Rui nodded and pointed in the direction of the prison: "Keep a close eye on it!"

Li Li's expression became serious: "I obey your command!"

In fact, he had already resigned from the post of "Prison Warden", and Lin Rui appointed another martial artist of the fourth realm to take the position.

However, Li Li understood clearly that Lin Rui's real intention was for him and his teacher's team to keep an eye on the people from the Judicial and Surveillance Commissioners and not let them take advantage of the opportunity to break in.

This is not a big problem. Two of the three provincial judges were seriously injured, and more than a dozen were captured and thrown into the Wangcheng prison. More than 20 people escaped with injuries. It is estimated that they will be difficult to cause any trouble in the next one or two days.

Lin Rui then placed his hands behind his back and glared fiercely at the gathered subordinates. "Listen carefully, the extraterritorial demon in this cell is involved in a serious case in the capital. A Heavenly Official from the Imperial City Division is rushing to Wangcheng for her. You must keep a close watch on this cell. Anyone who dares to be careless and allow this demon to be harmed will be skinned alive! Do you understand?"

The group of dragon riders immediately responded with thunderous roars.

They had just repelled the provocative Provincial Surveillance Commissioner and chased him for several blocks. They were in high spirits and their morale was high.

Wen Tailai, the secretary next to him, couldn't help but feel a little puzzled when he heard this.

Is a celestial official about to arrive in Wangcheng? Why would you bring this up in public? Aren't you afraid the news will leak out and reach those people from the Censorate?
"Remember, whoever wants to take this demon away will be killed by me. I will bear the responsibility!"

Lin Rui then turned to Wen Tailai and said, "Secretary, write two detailed official documents about today's events and send them to Shazhou as soon as possible to present to the Governor and the Garrison Commander! Also, preserve all evidence, especially this door."

Wen Tailai immediately gathered his thoughts and clasped his fists solemnly, "I understand! I will faithfully record the arrogant and domineering words and actions of Feng Guang and his companions, who disregard the emperor and the law, and report them to the Governor-General and the Garrison Commander!"

In short, the wicked should file a complaint first. This is not correct! They should first report their grievances to the higher authorities and place the blame for the conflict on the provincial court.

Lin Rui nodded with satisfaction. As long as Wen Tailai wasn't confused, he would be able to use it relatively smoothly. "Find someone to fix the gate. Since we're going to redo it, make two more impressive ones. Fix up the houses on both sides, too. Let the people from the Ministry of Justice pay for it, and also add the cost of the brothers' medicine. Do you understand?"

Wen Tailai understood what he meant.

If the people from the Censorate are unwilling to pay compensation, then the Censorate's detectives imprisoned in their prison will have no good days left.

Including the dozen or so constables led by Chief Justice Dou Ming, there are already more than 30 people locked up in this prison.

Lin Rui then returned to the inner court and put on the standard armor used exclusively by the sixth-rank lieutenant of the Imperial City Division. He also took out more than a dozen bundles of talismans numbering thousands from the warehouse, as well as a bag of Yuanshi and hung it on his body.

Lin Rui hasn't drawn talismans recently, but he is now the defense commander of Wangchengdu and can use the supplies in the Wangchengdu warehouse at will.

Every year, the imperial court would provide Wangcheng with a large number of fine talismans, mid- and low-grade Yuan stones, pills, arrows, etc. Lin Rui could get whatever he wanted without having to worry about anything.

As for the armor, it was sent over from Shazhou a few days ago.

This is a set of fifth-level alloy armor that covers the whole body. It can be paired with his soft hedgehog armor and has extremely strong defensive capabilities. However, it is rather troublesome to put on. Even with the help of the Blood Knife Girl, it takes several minutes.

However, this time the opponent was a sixth-level demon, so Lin Rui was extremely cautious and did not mind the trouble at all.

It was unfortunate. If it was one day later, he could have implanted the 'Blood Core Mad Yang' into the Blood Blade Princess, increasing her combat power again. Now the matter of colonization had to be postponed.

Next, Lin Rui rushed to the stable, rode an iron-scale horse, and galloped out of the city with Blood Knife Ji.

The place where the county governor, county lieutenant and others fought with the evil dragon was about forty miles north of the city, not far from Jinggang. The roar of the fight was like thunder and could be heard clearly from more than forty miles away.

Lin Rui rode his horse at full speed and approached the battlefield. He saw that the three-mile area on both sides of the river had turned into a vast ocean.

In the middle of the river, there were two gods wearing golden armor, about 12 feet tall, fighting fiercely with a demon that was 3 feet tall and 12 feet long, with horns on its head and irregular black scales all over its body, shaped like a crocodile.
