This martial saint's health bar is too thick

Chapter 48: The Case of Fury
In the jungle west of the Anshen Sect's headquarters, Li Fei was hiding on the branch of a big tree, looking at what was happening in the distance.

From his position he was able to see clearly what was happening in the village.

When Wang Ping and others were attacking the leader of Anshen Sect, Zhao Yu, he was waiting for an opportunity. After all attention was drawn to that side, he decisively chose to break out from the opposite direction.

If Wang Ping and others can successfully capture Zhao Yu and turn the situation around, the worst that can happen to him is that he can go back again.

And if Wang Ping and others failed, he would not be without a way out.

The final result proved that Li Fei's caution saved his life.

He watched the battle on the eastern hillside from beginning to end from the tree branch, and saw four official martial artists of the imperial court fall one after another.

Then he saw the people from the Anshen Sect enter the mountain stronghold and search and take away all the guns and equipment. He also saw that they seemed to be looking for someone and finally stabbed several people in the chest with knives.

Then hundreds of people from the Anshen Sect withdrew from the mountain stronghold and headed towards the direction where Li Fei was hiding.

"Come to arrest me?!"

Li Fei was startled, but quickly calmed down:

"There shouldn't be so many people coming together to capture me. They probably want to evacuate in this direction, and I just happened to be ahead of them."

He quickly got down from the branch and ran deeper into the jungle.

Soon, the leader of the Anshen Sect, Zhao Yu, brought a group of fully armed believers to the jungle where Li Fei was hiding.

Zhao Yu beckoned over a senior believer in a dark grey robe and said, "Someone escaped this way before. Take your people to set up the maze and make sure they don't track us."

"Yes, Master."

The senior believer took the order and left.

Soon, fog filled the jungle, and the people of Anshen Sect gradually disappeared in the fog.

In the fog, Li Fei looked at the backs of the Anshen Sect members in front of him and fell into hesitation.

Hao Yi told him a lot of common sense about magic, such as if a warrior wants to avoid being affected by the maze, he can only use the warrior's blood and innate qi to forcibly break the maze like Wang Ping did before.

If they did so, they would certainly alert the Anshen Sect members in front of them. Therefore, it was almost foolproof for the other party to set up a maze before leaving.

But Li Fei is an exception.

He had Ten Thousand Blood Pearls to share most of the mental disturbance for him, so he was hardly affected by the maze.

The trees and grass in front of him were just slightly doubled, but as long as he concentrated and looked carefully, the double images would disappear and he could see the real path directly.

This means that he can follow Anshenjiao and others quietly, tracking them all the way to find the new location of Anshenjiao!

"Should we track it?"

Given Li Fei's usual cautious character, at a time like this he should prioritize protecting himself and there is no need to take extra risks.

But he witnessed the failure of the operation with his own eyes, saw hundreds of fully armed inspectors being knocked unconscious in an instant, and saw four powerful regular martial artists being knocked down.

He was hit hard!
Even the registered martial arts masters said that if they died, they would die. In such a world, who dared to say that they would definitely live beyond tomorrow?

Even if I have something like Ten Thousand Blood Pearls, if I can't become stronger quickly, will I suddenly become like Wang Ping and others one day?
"We must seize every opportunity to become stronger, so that we can control our own destiny!"

Unconsciously, Li Fei's mentality changed and he developed a strong sense of urgency.

He saw with his own eyes that the three martial artists in black robes who blocked Wang Ping and others went their separate ways from the Anshen Sect and others, which showed that the two sides were not in the same group.

Moreover, in the battle with Wang Ping and others, there were only the three martial artists standing in the front from beginning to end, and the people of Anshen Sect only performed magic and fired guns in the back, which shows that Anshen Sect did not have any strong people at the martial artist level.

Without these three powerful martial artists, only the Anshen sect members who used magic were left. With Ten Thousand Blood Pearls, Li Fei at least had the strength to fight.

Even if they were discovered, there was a great chance of escaping in terrain like mountain jungles.

So in the end Li Fei decided to chase after him!

This is a risk but also an opportunity. If he can find the new location of the Anshen Sect and then go back to report, it will definitely be a great achievement, so he wants to give it a try.

"what's the situation?"

"Oh, my head hurts."

"Why did I suddenly fall asleep?"

"Where's my gun?"

"Where's my stab-proof vest?"

"."

In the mountain village, the unconscious people woke up one after another. "Changwu!!"

Suddenly, Lu Sheng's sad voice was heard.

People around looked over and saw Lu Changwu lying in a pool of blood, dead.

"what--"

"what--"

"what--"

Lu Sheng held his son's body and shouted three times almost crazily.

This promising captain of the Inspection Institute behaved like this for the first time in such a way that he lost his composure in public.

The students of the Military Academy nearby couldn't help but feel sad when they saw this scene.

Even the son of the captain of the Inspection Office could die so easily, let alone them?

Soon, the death toll was counted.

In addition to Lu Changwu, three A-grade students and five inspectors were killed. It seemed that the Anshen Cult was killing people randomly without any pattern.

As for Li Fei's disappearance, it had not been discovered for a while.

"It is possible that these people woke up early while the others were unconscious and were killed as a result."

Speculations have been made.

"Take all the bodies with you and withdraw the troops."

Lu Sheng stood up holding Lu Changwu's body and said with a deathly pale face.

That night, everyone returned to Xingcheng safely.

The operation failed, hundreds of firearms and more than 200 stab-proof vests and swords were lost, five inspectors and four A-class students of the Military Academy were killed, and most importantly, four regular martial arts masters were missing.

This is a major and serious case that has not happened in many years!
The whole Xingcheng was shaken.

"What is the purpose of the Inspection Office? So many people acted together with guns, and it still turned out like this?!"

In the Xingcheng Municipal Government Office, Director General Gu Zhenhui angrily slammed the table in his office.

After the Great Lan Dynasty changed from an imperial system to a dual constitutional monarchy more than two hundred years ago, the administrative structures of various places also changed.

From high to low, it is divided according to "province, prefecture, city, and town". The highest administrative chief of a town is called the mayor, that of a city is called the chief, and above that is the garrison commander of a prefecture and the inspector general of a province.

Chief Gu Zhenhui is the number one in Xingcheng and is in charge of administrative power. The incident that happened today was reported to him immediately, which triggered his rage.

"What did the Zhigeyuan say?"

Gu Zhenhui asked after patting the table.

He just turned fifty this year, and considering his age, he is still quite "young". He has a chance to make further progress and strive for the position of garrison commander.

But now such a vicious case has happened in the area under his jurisdiction, which naturally makes him furious.

"Sir, the Zhige Court has requested that the Zhengyuan Court send someone to assist them in tracking down the whereabouts of the Anshen Cult."

The Secretary General said.

Gu Zhenhui rubbed his temples and said, "Send an order to the Zheng Court and ask them to send people to assist the Zhige Court in the investigation. Tell them that whoever can find the whereabouts of the Anshen Cult first will be rewarded handsomely!
Also tell Huang Weiguang that I only give him ten days, within which he must either give me a satisfactory explanation or hand in his resignation!"

"Yes."

The Secretary-General nodded in agreement.

The order from the Chief Administrative Office was quickly passed down, and the three most important institutions, the Supervisory Office, the Office for Stopping Conflicts and the Court of Justice, all took action.

The Regular Court sent several mages to follow the regular martial artists of the Zhige Court into Luoshan. The Supervisory Court also sent hundreds of people into the mountain again, and this time it was Chief Inspector Huang Weiguang who led the team personally!
Not only that, the Supervision Office also issued a reward order:
"As long as you can provide effective clues about the Anshen Cult, you can receive a reward of up to 10,000 yuan!"

In Luoshan Village, Li Lei was leading people to check the villagers one by one.

Huang Weiguang led the team personally this time, and most of the inspectors he led were still from the First Brigade, because this was the most elite force of the Inspection Office, but Lu Sheng was no longer involved.

Li Lei took the initiative to apply to participate in this operation because Li Fei was missing and could not come back with the others.

On the other side, Hao Yi also learned the news of Li Fei's disappearance. He immediately left the Military Academy and rushed to Luoshan.
