One person: Activate the talisman, behold my Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon!

Xu Si's eyes grew brighter as he spoke, and he slammed his hands on the table.

"He is a disciple of the Quanzhen Sect, a legitimate and righteous sect. According to the rules of the supernatural world, members of each sect have the right to deal with any evil deeds committed by the Quanxing Sect. Our company is there to maintain balance, not to act as babysitters!"

Xu Si tapped the table with his finger, speaking slowly and deliberately.

"He's ruthless, but damn it, all the people he crippled were either dead or locked up! He didn't kill a single person, and the proportion of those he seriously injured or crippled was more precise than any statistics report!"

"What do you call this? This is called relentlessly exploiting the company's bottom line, a true outlaw and king of bug exploitation!" Xu Si leaned back in his chair, his face full of admiration.

"He has a thorough understanding of the company's standards and the rules of the various sects! As long as he doesn't kill anyone, as long as he targets those fugitives who deserve to die, and as long as he controls the degree of punishment, even if the company and the Ten Elders come, they will have to hold their noses and praise him for acting on behalf of heaven."

After hearing these words, Xu San was completely stunned. He opened his mouth for a long time, but couldn't utter a single word of rebuttal.

The company operates on the principle of reason, but Ye Xing's actions were so precise and meticulous, he was as slippery as an eel.

You want to catch him? He'll just shut you up against the wall with a single sentence like "Exterminate evil and protect the righteous path."

"This kid is too quick-witted; he's definitely not the type to play by the rules."

Xu Si stroked his stubble, his eyes gleaming. "Interesting. I'd really like to meet this Ye..."

Buzz—Buzz—

The vibration of the phone on the table suddenly interrupted Xu Si's words.

Xu Si glanced at the caller ID on the screen and answered the call directly.

Feng Baobao's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Fourth."

"What's wrong, baby?"

"Zhang Chulan has been captured, and I'm following him. Send someone over immediately."

Chapter 9 Ye Xing makes his move, striking directly at Xia He's heart.

Abandoned buildings on the outskirts of the city.

A dilapidated van was parked across the uneven cement ground in front of the building.

Zhang Chulan was bound hand and foot with thick hemp rope, wriggling back and forth on the ground like a giant caterpillar.

"Let me go! You bunch of scum who slipped through the net in a society governed by law!"

"Liu Yanyan! You damn liar! I thought you were a lucky charm, but you turned out to be a honey trap!"

Zhang Chulan's voice was almost hoarse from shouting, and he was filled with regret.

Despite all his calculations, he couldn't escape the curse of being a virgin. In a moment of impulsiveness, he ran off with this non-mainstream delinquent girl, only to be tied up in this godforsaken place and ended up in a den of thieves.

There were three people standing in front of him.

A short, bespectacled man introduced himself as Lü Liang.

Liu Yanyan, a purple-haired, unconventional girl, can control corpses.

There was also a woman with a hot figure and long pink hair.

"Alright, little brother Chu Lan, save your energy."

The woman with long pink hair stretched and laughed heartily, "I don't have time to pamper you right now, we have important business to attend to."

Lü Liang pushed up his round-framed glasses and squatted down next to Zhang Chulan's head.

With a raised right hand, a ball of dark blue Qi slowly surged in his palm.

"Zhang Chulan, don't move. The Soul Extraction Technique won't hurt when it comes to extracting memories. As long as you cooperate, I promise..."

Before he could finish speaking...

"Whoosh-"

A sudden, piercing sound filled the air!

A kitchen knife flew past Lü Liang's nose with a loud "clang" and slammed into the side of his van, sending sparks flying.

The handle of the knife was still buzzing violently.

Lu Liang shuddered in fright, and the blue energy in his hand dissipated. He scrambled back several steps.

The three of them turned their heads to look at each other.

Behind the concrete pillars of the abandoned building, Feng Baobao, wearing a loose white shirt and holding another small knife upside down in her hand, strolled out expressionlessly.

Upon seeing the newcomers, Zhang Chulan burst into tears and screamed like a pig being slaughtered: "Sister Bao'er! Dear sister! Help! These people are going to smash my head open!"

When Lü Liangyi saw the person and then looked at the cleaver that had been chopped into the van, his scalp tingled.

"Sister Xia He, this is a tough one. How about we call it quits?" Lü Liang said in a low voice, trying to back out.

"What's the panic?"

Xia He crossed her arms, completely ignoring Lü Liang's words. Instead, she looked at Feng Baobao across from her with interest, saying, "It's just her."

At this point, Xia He raised an eyebrow.

She sniffed, shifting her gaze from Feng Baobao to the deeper shadows on her right.

"wrong."

Xia He licked her bright red lips, her eyes filled with amusement. "There's one more."

The voice just fell.

"Slap, slap, slap."

Slow, deliberate applause came from the shadows.

Ye Xing, wearing his worn-out Quanzhen Taoist robe, clapped his hands as he strolled out of the darkness.

"As expected of the Bone-Scraping Knife, even though I hid it so well, you still managed to smell it." Ye Xing smiled and stopped next to Feng Baobao.

Lu Liang and Liu Yanyan were stunned on the spot.

When did this grown man start standing there? The two of them didn't even notice him the whole time!

'Surprised by Lü Liang was detected. Emotion value +20!'

'Unexpected emotions detected in Liu Yanyan, emotion value +15!'

Zhang Chulan, who was lying on the ground, stopped wriggling and his eyes shone.

"Brother Ye! Holy crap! Brother Ye, you're here too! Help, Brother Ye! These bastards are inhuman!"

Zhang Chulan shouted at the top of his lungs.

He had personally witnessed Ye Xing's monstrous feat of destroying Lei Fa with a single punch at the cemetery.

With this expert and Bao'er duoing together, his life is in good hands!

'Zhang Chulan is experiencing intense joy and gratitude. Emotional value +50!'

Hearing the notification sound in his mind that the money had arrived, Ye Xing was in a great mood and waved to Zhang Chulan on the ground as a greeting.

Who are you?

Lu Liang frowned, scrutinizing Ye Xing with a wary expression.

He was young, always laughing and joking, and wearing a tattered Taoist robe. He didn't look like a tough character at all.

"No problem."

Ye Xing patted the invisible dust off his sleeves. "I am Ye Xing, a disciple of the Quanzhen Sect from Baiyun Temple."

The moment those words were uttered, the air fell silent for a second.

Immediately afterwards, Lü Liang gasped, his throat tightening.

"Holy crap! You're that crazy Taoist priest who's been making headlines these past few days for targeting and killing our Quanxing sect?!"

The internal group chat of Quanxing has been in an uproar these past few days.

A mad dog from Quanzhen suddenly appeared in the North China region, targeting Quanxing disciples with heinous and appalling methods.

If caught, the serious consequences include having one's dantian destroyed, rendering the person untraceable for the rest of their life.

The key is that this Taoist priest is even more slippery than a ghost, keeping the company's and the orthodox rules firmly in place, leaving no one with an excuse to cause trouble.

Now, this plague god is actually standing alive right in front of him.

'Detected extreme fear and shock in Lü Liang, triggering a critical hit! Emotion value +60!'

'Surprised emotion detected in Liu Yanyan, emotion value +20.'

'Xia He has been detected to be speechless; emotion value +50.'

Xia He was also taken aback when she heard this.

But instead of dodging, she twisted forward two steps, her figure extremely alluring.

"Oh my, who do we have here? It's Master Ye, who has become quite famous these past few days."

Xia He's voice was soft and sticky, naturally possessing a captivating charm.

She reached out and tossed her long pink hair, her peach blossom eyes fixed on Ye Xing, her allure radiating from her.

"Young Taoist priest, you're so hot-tempered. Fighting all day is bad for your health. Why don't you let your older sister cool you down? I guarantee you'll experience what it's like to be an immortal."

An invisible, alluring power slowly spread from her body.

Seeing this, Lü Liang quickly composed himself. He knew Xia He's background all too well. If he were to get even a little bit of the bone-scraping knife's power, even a monk would have to break his vows.

Ye Xing stood still, not even raising his Qi for defense, and just looked at Xia He with a smile.

"Logically speaking, with Sister Xia He being so proactive, this hot-blooded young man like me really couldn't resist."

Ye Xing shrugged and changed the subject.

"However... I'm really afraid that when I go to Longhu Mountain for tourism afterwards, Master Lingyu will directly give me a Yin Five Thunder.

The room fell silent as soon as he said that.

Xia He, who was exuding charm just a second ago, froze on the spot, her smile gradually shattering, as if she had been disconnected from the internet.

'Detected intense shock and panic in Xia He, triggering a critical hit! Emotional value +100 points!'
