Anti-fraud manual for the cultivation world

Chapter 86 I'm Not Afraid of Revenge

Li Gu quickly crouched down and whispered, "Now that you've seen the [Synergistic Steps] and [Honeycomb Palm], you should know what mental cultivation technique I've learned, right?"

Upon hearing this, the two disciples of the Demonic Sect changed their expressions drastically.

Li Guyi reached out and grabbed one of the men's pulse points, then decisively began to draw blood.

Zhang Yi also swiftly flew over and grasped the other person's pulse.

One by one, suck up the fun!

The two demonic sect disciples couldn't hide the despair in their eyes. They wanted to say something, but couldn't utter a word; they could only feel their cultivation rapidly diminishing.

The cultivation of the two demonic sect disciples was not obtained cleanly. Not long ago, they had performed some merits and gained the appreciation of the hall master, Hua Mingyuan. At that time, a livestock named Sun Xing in Flower Valley was ready for market. After Hua Mingyuan subdued the livestock, he threw it to the two of them to absorb. Each of them absorbed half of the seventh level of Sun Xing's Qi Refining cultivation and comfortably advanced to the next level.

They still remember the desperate look in Sun Xing's eyes before he died.

And now, their eyes are no different from Sun Xing's.

Soon, the two were completely drained, lying slumped on the ground, feeling utterly drained.

Li Gu raised his hand and waved to Niu Xin and Ma Zhi in the distance: "Come here."

The two, Niu and Ma, were injured and could not walk fast, so they slowly approached.

The two had witnessed the battle clearly. Zhang Yi and Li Gu had taken down the two demonic sect disciples in just a few moves. They had assumed the disciples' cultivation was low, and as they approached, they were still cursing, "These two demonic sect disciples look so weak. They seem to have only recently reached the Qi Refining stage. Damn it, if we hadn't been injured, we could have dealt with them ourselves."

Li Gu and Zhang Yi chuckled inwardly: These two are both at the eighth level of Qi Refining; even if you weren't injured, they would still beat you to a pulp.

However, this pleasant misunderstanding was advantageous to Li Gu and Zhang Yi, so the two of them were certainly not foolish enough to expose it.

Li Gu feigned concern, saying, "These two have already been injured by me. Are we just going to send them to the yamen like this?"

"Send him a damn thing." Niu Xin picked up an iron ruler and stabbed it into the throat of a demonic sect disciple with a "thud." Although he was injured, he was still a Qi Refining Level 3 wounded person. The force of the stab was not small. With a crack, his throat bone shattered, and the demonic sect disciple was killed on the spot.

Ma Zhi showed no mercy either, repeating the same method to stab another disciple of the Demonic Sect to death.

The two men finally felt a little better, cursing, "The demonic sect disciple resisted arrest, injured the officers, and was killed on the spot. If anyone should be escorted, it should be his corpse."

Li Gu inwardly applauded, but muttered to himself, "What if the higher-ups find out about this? Won't we get in trouble?"

Niu and Ma each stretched out a hand and pressed his left and right shoulders: "Heaven knows, earth knows, you know, and I know. As long as we insist that this is the case, then this is the case. This is how the officials in Jiangzhou handle cases. The higher-ups know that we are like this, so everyone will turn a blind eye. Otherwise, how can we fight against so many messy gangs in Jiangzhou?"

After saying that, Niu Ma helped up the mortal who had been hit by several flying needles and was unconscious: "This person needs to be taken to the yamen so that the doctor can treat him. He is an important witness who can prove that these two demonic sect disciples were fighting in the city and accidentally injured a passerby. The flying needles embedded in his body are physical evidence."

The two men then pointed to the flower thief who had been knocked unconscious by Zhang Yi: "Take this guy to the yamen as well, he's an important witness."

Alright, we have both witnesses and physical evidence!

The Six Doors can turn this into an ironclad case.

Li Gu smiled and said, "I'm a newbie and I don't know any of this. Please teach me, brothers."

Zhang Yi leaned close to Li Gu and whispered, "The Six Doors are not much different from gangs. They talk a lot about the law, but they never actually abide by it. Now I realize what kind of environment my father was in when he handled cases back then."

Li Gu sighed softly, "Only those in high positions, living carefree and unrestrained lives, can spout romantic notions of justice. Those still struggling to survive, who among them isn't desperately fighting for their lives?"

Zhang Yi remained silent.

Li Gu asked in a low voice, "Senior Sister, you felt your meridians weren't wide enough a few days ago, and your newly acquired cultivation wasn't circulating smoothly, right?"

How does it feel to have absorbed another level 8 of Qi today?

Zhang Yi lowered his voice and said, "It's even more uncomfortable now. My meridians are swollen and painful. It seems I can't absorb any more for a while. I have to control it and widen my meridians before I start absorbing again."

Li Gu had some pills for expanding meridians, but he couldn't explain why he couldn't take them out. So he said, "Cai Xinzi has a good relationship with the Thirteen Gang. Senior Sister, ask him if he can get some spiritual medicine for expanding meridians. We should be able to get it at half price, right? I still have some money here."

Zhang Yi smiled awkwardly: "I can't always spend my junior brother's money. I took 400 of your low-grade spirit stones last time to make an iron ruler magic weapon, and I'm still thinking about how to pay you back."

The two chatted as they returned to the yamen, where they handed over the body, witnesses, and physical evidence. With Niu Xin and Ma Zhi present, the two didn't get involved in any of the details; they simply handed everything over to Niu and Ma.

Niu and Ma were also happy to do this. They had just returned from a "revenge" and were full of the feeling of "I've made a fortune and am back home to show off." They laughed to everyone they met in the Six Doors: "I've got my revenge! I've got my revenge! Hahaha, I killed two disciples of the Demonic Sect. I'm so happy I can't take it anymore."

"You two wounded can still do this?" The old constables were skeptical.

Niu Ma had no choice but to confess honestly: "Li Muling and Zhang Chunyu did it! They're both very skilled. Hey, this can't be told to outsiders. We can only say that it was the two of us who did it. It's a matter of our reputation."

The veteran constables laughed and scolded, "If word gets out, won't you become targets of the Demonic Sect's revenge? You two idiots! The Chief Constable said that official documents don't specify who did it, precisely to protect you. Why do you still want to spread the names?"

Niu Ma straightened his neck: "Man fights for his pride, tree fights for its bark. When it comes to face, we'd rather die than submit. If this news doesn't spread that we did it, then the fact that we were injured by the Demonic Sect will be a laughing stock for eternity. Rather than be laughed at, let them kill us."

After saying that, the two waved to Li Gu and Zhang Yi: "Brother Li, Miss Zhang, how about we let you handle this? Consider it a favor we owe you."

Li Gu clasped his hands in a fist and palm salute: "Of course, no problem!"

Zhang Yi couldn't help but sigh: "Living like them must feel so wonderful."

Niu Ma was very enthusiastic and immediately began to write the "Case of Arrest" by hand. This was something that the constables had to write after they finished a case. If the constables were illiterate, they would dictate the case, and the clerk in the criminal office would write it down for them, and then the constables would sign it.

It should specify in detail: when, where, and why a person was apprehended; what was seen at the scene (fight in a busy area, attack on police with a knife, the extent of the injuries, the type of weapon, witnesses present, stolen goods); the arrest process, and whether there was any resistance or killing.

With Li Gu and Zhang Yi's approval, the case details written by Niu Ma were changed, now portraying the two of them as the ones who killed the murderer.

Retaliation? What the hell am I afraid of?! I'm not even afraid of death, so what am I afraid of?
