Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations
Southern District In a manor in the suburbs.
The manor was quiet and dark under the night sky. There were only a few lights.
Looking down from the sky, one could see the buildings of various heights, the wide courtyard, the flat grass... All of them showed the extravagance of the manor and the wealth of the master behind it.
A few guards walked past the entrance of the manor with wolfhounds and flashlights in their hands. They looked rather absent-minded.
As Southern District was where the rich gathered, the public security here was second only to the Central District in Dragonside City. Few criminals dared to cause trouble here, and theft and robbery were unheard of.
Therefore, the few guards were very relaxed. The patrol was just for show.
But tonight, an accident happened.
A burst of light suddenly tore through the night and descended in front of the manor.
The sudden light made the guards subconsciously close their eyes.
When the light disappeared and they opened their eyes again, they were shocked to discover that a large group of people had appeared in front of them.
Before the guards could react, they heard some whooshing sounds.
Dozens of steel balls tore through the air and shot out like bullets, piercing through the security guards and the wolfhounds.
They were dead before they knew what was going on.
The leader, Han Wu, watched this scene with an indifferent gaze.
"Those who can work in this manor are either official members of the Wild Wolves or their minions. If we fight later, you don't have to hold back!
"The mission starts now. Remember, no one is allowed to escape!"
"Yegl"
The disciples of the academy participating in the mission immediately dispersed and headed to their respective locations according to the map in their minds.
Lin Shen and the other three were no exception. They looked at each other and moved at the same time.
The encirclement formed by the disciples was divided into three layers, surrounding the manor tightly.
The location where Lin Shen's team was stationed happened to be on the outermost third layer, which was a little far away.
Halfway through, the four of them suddenly heard a whistling sound coming from the sky.
Looking up, he saw a large number of figures appear in the sky above the manor.
Hundreds of Martial Enforcement Hall members rode cranes, golden-feathered eagles, and other flying spiritual beasts. They descended from the sky with weapons in their hands and charged into the manor aggressively.
Such a grand formation immediately attracted the attention of the people inside and outside the manor.
In an instant, countless lights lit up everywhere in the manor, and shouts could be heard.
The shouts quickly turned into battle cries and miserable howls.
Even though they were hundreds of meters away, they could feel the brutality and bloodshed in the manor!
"Let's go."
Lin Shen, who had experienced the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range, was already immune to killing and bloodshed. After taking a few glances, he retracted his gaze and continued to rush to the location.
Yu Shuying and Zuo Manman weren't surprised at all.
Both of them were seniors of the Azure Frost Academy. They had experienced life-and-death battles like this many times and were already used to it.
This was the first time Zhao Xueying had experienced such a scene. She couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
It wasn't until Lin Shen and the other two ran more than ten meters away that she snapped out of her daze and hurriedly followed them.
Not long after.
The four of them arrived at the location.
Looking over, they happened to be at the entrance of a forest path.
On both sides of the path were dark forests, and in front of him was an empty space. There was no obstruction at all, and they could see everything at a glance.
Once someone ran in this direction, they would be able to see it
immediately.
"I wonder if anyone will escape this way?"
Yu Shuying looked into the distance for a while. Unfortunately, they were already more than a thousand meters away from the manor, and there was a high wall blocking them. She couldn't see anything at all and could only hear faint shouts.
"Better not," said Zuo Manman, pursing her lips.
Although they weren't afraid of fighting, it was naturally better if they didn't have to fight. She wanted to stay here peacefully for a night and then leave tomorrow with the reward of three minor merits.
Many disciples accepted the Martial Enforcement Hall's mission precisely because of this.
"IT heard from Banner Officer Han that the people in this manor are members of an organization called Wild Wolves. Have any of you heard of them?" Yu Shuying suddenly asked.
Zuo Manman shook her head in confusion.
Lin Shen's eyes flickered.
He knew about the existence of Wild Wolves, and he had fought with them more than once.
However, his understanding of this organization was limited to the fact that it was an unorthodox group that secretly killed cultivators and used them to refine Blood Spirit Pills.
Other than that, he knew very little.
At this moment, Lin Shen saw Zhao Xueying's expression change from the corner of his eye, so he turned around and asked, "You know about Wild Wolves?"
Zhao Xueying nodded and said solemnly, "I've heard of it. It's said to be related to the recent disappearance of many cultivators in Dragon City. According to the evidence gathered by the Martial Enforcement Hall, it's very likely that the Wild Wolves are secretly refining Blood Spirit Pills!"
"Blood Spirit Pills!"
Yu Shuying and Zuo Manman exclaimed at the same time.
All cultivators had heard of Blood Spirit Pills.
This incomparably evil pill was one of the things that many orthodox cultivators hated the most!
However, Lin Shen remained calm, and a knowing look flashed across his eyes.
He had long heard of the Blood Spirit Pills from Ding Leng. Now, he was just confirming it again.
"They actually refined Blood Spirit Pills. These people deserve to die!"
Yu Shuying gritted her teeth.
"That's right!"
Zuo Manman nodded heavily, her face solemn.
The existence of the Blood Spirit Pills posed the greatest threat to cultivators like them who had yet to advance to cultivator masters.
This was because no one knew if they would one day become the ingredients of Blood Spirit Pills..
