The departure of the Yunjiang Four Ghosts and others from the Ren Family essentially signalled the endgame.

Chen Yuan walked out of the main hall to find boxes of gold, silver, jewelry, ancient antiques, and calligraphic paintings arranged outside.

Wu Sanhu approached Chen Yuan with a smile and cupped fist, saying,

“Lord Chen.”

“What is it, County Magistrate Wu?”

“This time, we must also thank the gentlemen of the Heavenly Patrol Bureau for helping us in Qinghe County to eradicate the cancerous Ren Family…” Wu Sanhu then offered up some flattery.

In short, the idea was to make Chen Yuan happy any way possible.

Chen Yuan raised his hand to stop Wu Sanhu’s incessant chatter and said,

“County Magistrate Wu is too courteous, people from the County Government will inevitably be needed to help with the aftermath.”

“It’s only right, only right.”

“I just wonder how Lord Chen plans to dispose of the body of that old thief Ren Changyi?” The gleam in Wu Sanhu’s eyes flickered.

“Do you have any thoughts, County Magistrate Wu?”

“Could his body be handed over to the County Government?”

“It can be.”

“That’s very kind of you, Lord Chen.”

Wu Sanhu’s face beamed with a smile.

Tomorrow, Qinghe County would herald the news that under the leadership of County Magistrate Wu Sanhu, they went through great hardships to remove the poisonous tumor of the Ren Family, restoring to Qinghe County a clear and upright world!

“I’m planning to expose the old scoundrel’s body for three days before finding a place to bury it…”

Wu Sanhu revealed his plans for handling the body.

“Don’t waste the coffin either; use it to store Ren Changyi’s body,” Chen Yuan said, pointing to a nearby casket.

“Good, Lord Chen is merciful.”

“Remember, the coffin must be buried upright.”

“How so?”

Wu Sanhu was perplexed.

Chen Yuan just smiled and offered no explanation.

An upright burial for the ancestors ensures that the descendants will flourish.

It’s uncertain whether the Ren Family still has any descendants!

…

…

At Nanling Prefecture, inside the Heavenly Patrol Bureau,

“Sir, here are the Geng Metal and the archives,”

Chen Yuan presented things he had already prepared to Tao Qingyuan.

Having archives was essential, as after each case was completed, archives had to be prepared. After being checked, they would be placed into the archives library.

After carefully reading through the archives, Tao Qingyuan furrowed his brow and asked,

“Ren Changyi had so many accomplices?”

Chen Yuan listed each person who acted against him, enabling Tao Qingyuan to sense the perilous situation at a glance.

“That old bastard Ren Changyi used the Geng Metal as bait, attracting two fools who didn’t know any better to make a move against me. In the end, however, they were outmatched and were slain on the spot!” Chen Yuan spoke calmly.

After looking at Chen Yuan, Tao Qingyuan’s gaze held a hint of admiration.

Though Chen Yuan had spoken lightly, anyone who read through the archives would understand how dangerous the situation had been.

Including Ren Changyi, a total of four martial artists in the Gang Condensation Realm emerged to help, but all were successively cut down by Chen Yuan, with Ren Changyi’s head now hanging in front of the Heavenly Patrol Bureau as a deterrence.

And Chen Yuan won against four, an impressive victory!

Such a record, regardless of where it would be placed, could definitely be considered rare.

Tao Qingyuan now understood Zhang Xuan better and why he valued Chen Yuan so much. His eyes were as sharp as his father’s, capable of discovering a gem among the masses like Chen Yuan.

Such prowess indicated that Chen Yuan’s talent far surpassed martial artists of the same level, his future immeasurable!

After finishing the review of the archives, Tao Qingyuan said,

“You’ve done very well this time. With such merit to your name, other Heavenly Patrol Envoys won’t have anything to say.”

“You flatter me, sir.”

“And this piece of Geng Metal… it’s very useful to me. Speak, what do you wish for? As long as it’s not excessive, I will grant it.”

Although the Geng Metal was only the size of a thumb, it was enough to be incorporated into a weapon.

“I wish for a movement technique, and I kindly ask for your guidance, sir,” Chen Yuan requested.

Chen Yuan’s raw strength for straightforward combat was sufficient, what was missing was a secret technique that could dramatically increase his speed.

In a fight, the most important aspects are attack, defense, and movement technique.

Chen Yuan already had the surprise attack of the Blood Evil Saber and the defensive prowess of the Vajra Glaze Body, with physical defense far exceeding his peers. He only needed a movement technique to ensure a swift escape if outmatched.

Moreover, if he found himself in a desperate situation during a fight, a sudden boost in speed from the movement technique could catch an opponent off guard.

“A movement technique…” Tao Qingyuan asked with a slight frown,

“What kind of movement technique do you want?”

Inside the Nanling Prefecture Heavenly Patrol Bureau, there didn’t seem to be many high-quality movement techniques. Only the headquarters in the Capital had them, but upper-tier movement techniques required a great deal of merit to exchange.

With Chen Yuan’s current merit, he was far from reaching the needed amount.

“A movement technique that can double my speed during combat…” Chen Yuan said with his hands clasped.

“We don’t have such a movement technique you are looking for in the Heavenly Patrol Bureau right now, only three types, and all are quite ordinary…” Tao Qingyuan shook his head. Movement techniques, being rare secrets, were always in short supply.

Chen Yuan felt somewhat disappointed.

But then Tao Qingyuan continued,

“However, I do have an incomplete movement technique in my hands, if you are interested.”

“Incomplete…”

Chen Yuan was somewhat speechless. Why was it always something incomplete?

Could it be that when reaching a higher realm in the future, he would have to change again? Subconsciously, Chen Yuan felt like refusing, planning to exchange for some elixirs used for cultivation.

“This movement technique, I name it ‘Wind Control.'”

“Wind Control?”

“It’s an incomplete section I accidentally obtained years ago in a relic. It is most suitable within the Gang Condensation Realm. The True Qi from the Dantian is dispersed to the limbs and bones,

focusing more on the legs. It can instantaneously increase the speed of one’s movements greatly.”

“I tried cultivating it myself, indeed it was extraordinary. Sadly, due to injuries on my body, I couldn’t bring out the greatest potential of this movement technique.”

This was the first time Tao Qingyuan had revealed his injury to Chen Yuan.

“However, this cultivation technique requires the physical strength to far exceed those of the same level, to maximize the power of this movement technique. Because it greatly increases one’s speed in a short time, one needs to bear immense pressure,

and within a short period, it cannot be used more than three times. Otherwise, it will damage the legs.

Do you want to learn it?”

Tao Qingyuan looked at Chen Yuan with a smile that was not quite a smile.

It seemed he was very certain that Chen Yuan would learn it.

Clearly, Chen Yuan’s ability to defeat several higher-ranking peers at the beginning of the Qi Absorption Level must mean he had a strong physique; otherwise, it wouldn’t explain his strength.

Below the Reach Profound, the physical strength contributes greatly to combat ability.

Generally, those who can exhibit strength at the Qi Absorption Level must be related to their physical strength.

Chen Yuan was silent for a few moments, seemingly finding the movement technique to be truly tailor-made for him.

Perfectly suited for him.

“Since you recommend it, sir, naturally I cannot refuse.”

Chen Yuan smiled.

“What a pity, this movement technique is incomplete. Otherwise, our Nanling Prefecture Heavenly Patrol Bureau would have one more superior movement technique. But this technique is not easy to cultivate;

Nie Qi Yun and the others fumbled with it for over a year and didn’t grasp the basics. In the end, they gave up.”

Zhang Xuan regarded Chen Yuan so highly, Tao Qingyuan understood his talent was extraordinary, now… it was just unknown how his perception was.

At the Upper Realm, perception occupied a very important position as well.

“What about Lord Zhang Xuan?”

Chen Yuan really wanted to know how Zhang Xuan, who ranked within the top hundred of the Hidden Dragon List, cultivated this movement technique.

Tao Qingyuan: “He… do you think Zhang Xuan would lack a movement technique?”

Chen Yuan smiled without saying a word, thinking about it, it was true. How could someone with a profound background like Zhang Xuan lack for movement techniques? Naturally, he would not cultivate an incomplete one. He would choose among the superior or even top-level cultivation techniques within the court.

“Alright, you may leave now. I will have someone send ‘Wind Control’ to you.”

Tao Qingyuan picked up the Geng Metal, eyes somewhat fervent.

“Many thanks, sir!”

Chen Yuan understood this was Tao Qingyuan taking care of him. Otherwise, with his merit, even having acquired the Geng Metal, it wouldn’t have been enough for him to exchange for a movement technique.

After leaving Tao Qingyuan’s place, Chen Yuan returned to the government office.

He started distributing the Ren Family’s booty to the Heavenly Patrol Guards below.

Not equally divided, but according to the merit.

Among them, Yue Shan and Mo Donghe received the most reward silver, followed by Yan Qing and Yang Feng…

…

…

Like this, three more days had passed.

During these three days, Chen Yuan’s exploits also began to circulate within the Heavenly Patrol Bureau. Facing four enemies alone, intimidating the masses, and knocking back a Martial Monk from Gold Mountain Monastery with a single punch, all underscored Chen Yuan’s strength.

And his status also rose significantly; at least apart from a few peers among the Heavenly Patrol Envoys, no one dared to gossip about Chen Yuan anymore.

The ‘Wind Control’ movement technique that Tao Qingyuan mentioned also arrived in Chen Yuan’s hands.

It was an inscribed copy.

Not the kind of secret manual he had imagined, but just a few dozen mantras.

Chen Yuan pondered over it for a day and didn’t quite understand it. He could only comprehend it slowly.

During these three days, besides cultivating the Wind Control movement technique, Chen Yuan was swallowing elixirs to enhance his cultivation and did not rashly go looking for Shen Yanshu.

Instead, he had Yue Shan and others inquire about the Shen Family and wanted to know exactly what this Phoenix Marrow Energy was.

In the Heavenly Patrol Bureau’s archives.

Chen Yuan held a tome of strange tales in his hands, frowning slightly.

This was what he had people find about Phoenix Marrow Energy. After the Heavenly Patrol Guard found it, he didn’t dare delay and immediately notified Chen Yuan.

However, Chen Yuan was not very satisfied because the record only contained a few brief notes.

The part that caught Chen Yuan’s attention the most was about the Phoenix Marrow Spirit Body and Phoenix Marrow Energy.

The record stated that only those who possess the Phoenix Marrow Spirit Body will have a stream of Phoenix Marrow Energy in their body.

The Phoenix Marrow Spirit Body is a rather rare special constitution, with above-average talent. But the exact special features were not detailed in the text.

As for Phoenix Marrow Energy, there was nothing at all.

It was only noted that associated with Phoenix Marrow Energy was a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence, nurtured on someone with a Phoenix Marrow Spirit Body.

Taking a long breath, Chen Yuan put the tome aside and decided to personally go and see it for himself. The search, he estimated, would not reveal much else.

But considering it was directed by the Qi Fortune Altar, it must be an upper-level opportunity, most suitable for his current situation.

…

Just as Chen Yuan was searching within the Heavenly Patrol Bureau, a piece of news shook almost half of Nanling Prefecture’s city.

Ascending Immortal Tower released the newest Hidden Dragon List.

Chen Yuan made the list!

The record stated:

Chen Yuan, a Heavenly Patrol Envoy from Nanling, age twenty-one, from Ping’an County, on the twenty-fourth of September in the seventh year of Jingtai, killed a martial artist of the same realm… repelled Xuan Nu, the Condensing Evil Martial Monk from Gold Mountain Monastery.

Ranks on the Hidden Dragon List as number…
