Catching Monsters

Chapter 756 Strokes of the Brush
Huang Jincheng swallowed hard and hurriedly nodded in agreement: "Yes, I encountered bandits a while ago and was seriously injured. Fortunately, I met Miss Guo Qingyi from the escort agency, who rescued me."

Huang Jincheng simply echoed the lie Jiang Yun had told him.

Unexpectedly, Peng Chenxing appeared beside him instantly, then grabbed his wrist and used his powerful magic to instantly examine Huang Jincheng's body.

"You're not injured, you're lying?" Peng Chenxing's eyes were deep, and Huang Jincheng felt a little itchy under his gaze, as if no matter what lie he told, he couldn't hide it from those eyes.

He could only swallow hard and force himself to say, "I was seriously injured before. Can't I rest and recuperate here until I'm almost fully healed? Do I have to stay seriously injured forever?"

Guo Chengnian, who was standing to the side, breathed a slight sigh of relief when he heard that Huang Jincheng, who was usually so dull, could come up with a reason so quickly.

Peng Chenxing was too lazy to waste words with this person: "Arrest all those involved in this matter and interrogate them for their words and actions. I don't believe that everyone in this escort agency is just a stubborn person."

"Yes." Prefect Shi Qirui frowned slightly. He looked at Guo Chengnian beside him, blinked, and then said, "Chief镖头 Guo, tell Mr. Peng what's wrong as soon as possible. Don't cause trouble for yourself, understand?"

Guo Chengnian lowered his head slightly and said, "I don't understand. This person is the one we rescued."

“You…” Shi Qirui’s face darkened. This guy really won’t shed a tear until he sees the coffin.

Soon, a group of constables rushed into the courtyard, preparing to arrest Huang Jincheng and Guo Chengnian.

Although Guo Chengnian was skilled in martial arts, if it really came down to a fight, these constables might not be his match.

But Guo Chengnian understood that going against the government would not end well, so he dared not resist and let the constables take the shackles and prepare to handcuff him.

To everyone's surprise, Jiang Yun suddenly pushed open the courtyard door at that moment.

"Peng Chenxing, since you've come to see me, don't make things difficult for the others," Jiang Yun said calmly.

He understood that if the investigation were thorough, his hiding place would likely be exposed sooner or later.

Even if Huang Jincheng and Guo Chengnian can withstand the interrogation and torture by the government, what about the other bodyguards?
Jiang Yun also knew that if he secretly escaped after these people captured Guo Chengnian and Huang Jincheng, he would be fine.

But Guo Chengnian, Huang Jincheng, and Guo Qingyi are definitely dead.

Jiang Yun didn't want to implicate them because of her own problems.

Regardless of the circumstances, they were all people who had been kind to me.

"Jiang Yun!" Peng Chenxing's eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of excitement appeared in them. He hadn't expected that Jiang Yun was really hiding here.

If we can capture this boy and bring him back to Qinghe Academy, Chu Sheng will surely be delighted, and I will also reap the benefits.

"Master Jiang."

Seeing Jiang Yun flick his finger, two powerful magical forces instantly sent the constables surrounding Huang Jincheng and Guo Chengnian flying.

"hiss."

Seeing Jiang Yun's abilities after regaining his strength, Guo Chengnian was dumbfounded. In the blink of an eye, so many constables could be brought to the ground instantly. For people like them, this was nothing short of divine power.

He knew that Jiang Yun, as the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, must be quite powerful, but he never expected him to be this terrifying.

"Your cultivation has recovered?" Peng Chenxing narrowed his eyes slightly and said slowly, "Prefect Shi, leave here first. If you stay here, be careful that you don't lose your life if a fight breaks out later."

"Yes." Upon hearing this, Shi Qirui immediately fled outside without hesitation.

As a prefect, he was quite knowledgeable and knew that if these two top experts were to fight, getting too close would likely result in certain death. Seeing this, the Imperial Guards in the courtyard, including Guo Chengnian and Huang Jincheng, quickly left the courtyard.

“Jiang Yun, I’ll remind you one last time,” Peng Chenxing said slowly, “If you are willing to hand over your own destiny, our Qinghe Academy will not make things too difficult for you.”

Seeing Jiang Yun's eyebrows furrow slightly, Peng Chenxing shook his head helplessly. He also wanted to avoid some trouble. Since Jiang Yun didn't know what was good for him, he couldn't blame him.

In an instant, a long sword appeared in Peng Chenxing's hand. Then, he leaped up and swept the sword horizontally towards Jiang Yun.

Jiang Yun did not dodge.

With a deafening roar, the small house behind Jiang Yun in the courtyard was instantly destroyed by a single sword strike, raising a huge cloud of dust that engulfed Jiang Yun.

"He didn't dodge?" Peng Chenxing's face showed surprise when he saw this.

Then, a hint of anger appeared in his eyes. How dare this kid ignore him like this?
He dared to take that sword strike head-on?

Soon, the dust settled, and Jiang Yun stood on the ruins of the house, his body still radiating a faint blue light, while in his hand he held the Azure Lotus Banner.

After recuperating in this small courtyard and gradually recovering his magical power, Jiang Yun tentatively studied the effects of the Azure Lotus Banner.

He then realized that the blue light emitted by this treasure was not offensive at all.

This item appears to be a defensive treasure and cannot be used for attack.

After several trials, Jiang Yun, seeing Peng Chenxing make his move, also wanted to test the defensive capabilities of this item.

"call."

Jiang Yun slowly exhaled and looked around at the scene. Although Peng Chenxing's sword was not a full-force strike, nor was it his killing move.

However, it was still an attack from a top-tier expert of the first rank, yet after using the Azure Lotus Treasure Banner, he easily withstood the attack.

Unscathed!

Jiang Yun couldn't help but glance at the Azure Lotus Banner in his right hand. Although he knew in his heart that this thing was very powerful and terrifying, he did not expect it to be this powerful.

Peng Chenxing's eyes were also wide open as he stared straight at Jiang Yun, somewhat incredulous that this guy seemed to be completely unharmed.
How can this be.

Peng Chenxing slowly said, "I underestimated you, kid. You actually have such a treasure. Where did you get it?"

As he spoke, his gaze fell upon the flagpole in Jiang Yun's hand, which emitted a blue light.

The azure light emanating from Jiang Yun's body came from this object.

Peng Chenxing quickly took out a writing brush that emitted a faint light from his pocket. This thing was obviously not an ordinary writing brush.

With a wave of his hand, he used the brush to write the character for "rain" in mid-air.

The black character for "rain" appeared, and instantly a torrential downpour began in the sky, the raindrops being entirely black.

Then, Peng Chenxing wielded his brush and wrote the character "wind" in mid-air.

In an instant, a strong wind arose.
