The Imperial Guards, like Yama, slaughtered until the Empress cried out for help.

On the other side, the Twin Absolute Sect.

The Shuangjue Sect is located on two adjacent mountain peaks.

This place is also known as Twin Peaks, one named Fist Peak and the other Palm Peak.

Because they have mastered two excellent martial arts styles, fist and palm, their strength is definitely top-notch in Yongning County. It is said that they have a genius disciple who entered the Six Doors and, because of his talent, went to a secluded place to further his studies. Therefore, most people in the martial arts world regard this Shuangjue Sect as the leader of the martial arts world.

Moreover, the Shuangjue Sect has also made considerable achievements in business, relying on its strength to continuously plunder industries through dirty means.

Up to now.

From small towns like Ping'an to large cities like Qiushui and Luoshui, you can see the businesses of the Shuangjue Sect.

This is why the Shuangjue Sect is so assertive and dares to say that the Embroidered Uniform Guards will personally come to their door to beg them.

Above the fist peak.

The dim firelight flickered continuously.

Fang Ming was tightly bound by several iron chains and hung in mid-air, while the same situation was playing out in other rooms.

Fang Ming's expression was solemn as he looked at the old man in front of him: "Elder Ma Gu, why bother? Our Embroidered Uniform Guard and your Shuangjue Sect have always kept to ourselves."

"Why did you tie me up and bring me here today? Why don't you release me now, and I'll pretend nothing happened?"

Ma Gu's face darkened: "Fang Ming, stop pretending. You saw Wei Jiong, didn't you?"

Wei Jiong was the centurion who had previously defected to Bailuze. Unexpectedly, after going around in circles, he ended up back in Yongning County and hiding in the Shuangjue Sect.

Fang Ming's heart sank a little. While investigating the case, he passed by the Shuangjue Sect and unintentionally saw Wei Jiong. Fang Ming reacted quickly and immediately looked away, pretending nothing had happened, and left with his men.

However, to their surprise, Wei Jiong also noticed them and, not long after Fang Ming left, led the people of Shuangjue Sect to catch up.

Fang Ming reacted quickly, immediately ordering all the Imperial Guards to disperse and head to the nearest town to notify the Zhenfu Division.

However, the chances of success were not high, because this case was not a major one, and Fang Ming only brought ordinary Imperial Guards, and several of them were even new recruits.

However, judging from the current situation, it seems that some members of the Imperial Guard have not been caught.

Now that he had made it clear, Fang Ming decided not to pretend anymore, and a cold smile appeared on his lips.

"Ma Gu, you're harboring remnants of the White Dragon Cult. I think you're asking for trouble."

Ma Gu roared, "Fang Ming! Don't push your luck! Where did the other Imperial Guard with the short sword go?"

"Tell me now, and I might let you off the hook. Otherwise, you'll regret it when I'm putting you in torture!"

Fang Ming laughed loudly: "Regret? I stopped liking your torture methods ten years ago. Just bring it on, and if I blink, it'll be your son!"

"You dare arrest me? Do you know whose people I work for?"

"You dare arrest Shen Qing's men? You're all dead meat!"

Ma Gu's face turned completely ugly, which was exactly what he feared most.

He took a deep breath: "Fang Ming, I never thought that our years of hiding would end in ruin because of this accident."

"Fang Ming, Fang Ming, why did you have to pass by at that time? Wei Jiong only took the time it takes to drink a cup of tea to get down the mountain, and you just had to bump into him?"

Fang Ming laughed loudly: "That means my luck has turned! Heaven is sending me to do this great deed!"

Ma Gu sneered: "A dead man trying to gain merit? Are you still hoping Shen Qing will come to your rescue?"

"Where are the Embroidered Uniform Guards to surround the mountain now? Qin Chuan and Lu Tong led five centurions into Bailuze. Where is the Zhenfu Division stationed now?"

"Mobilize a large army? The Japanese pirates have been causing a lot of trouble in Jiashui County lately, and all the troops are there. If you bring them over, you'll be dead by now."

"Two days later, we'd already run away. Do you think Shen Qing would be angry if I hung your corpse on the mountain gate?"

Fang Ming looked at Ma Gu: "Do you think you know a lot about the Embroidered Uniform Guard?"

Ma Gu's statements were all correct. There was indeed no one left in the Zhenfu Division, and the troops had indeed all gone to Jiashui County in the east. All things considered, Ma Gu did indeed know a lot about the Embroidered Uniform Guard and the army.

But does he really understand Shen Qing?

At the Hundred Households Office, when he had nothing to do, Shen Qing would often explain some truths and famous sayings to them.

There was one sentence Shen Qing said that he remembered very clearly.

It's called, "If I hear the Way in the morning, I can die content in the evening!"

They all thought this meant that if you learn a profound truth in the morning, you will have no fear of death in the evening.

However, Shen Qing revealed another meaning to them.

That means, if I find out about you this morning, I'm going to fuck you to death tonight!

Ma Gu snorted, turned and left, waving his hand: "Xiao Ling, kill him and hang him on the mountain gate!"

A young man named Ma Ling nodded, "Understood, Grandpa."

After Ma Gu left, Ma Ling looked at Fang Ming with an arrogant expression.

"To be honest, I've never actually flown the main flag before."

"I wonder if practicing boxing with the flag would have any special effects?"

Fang Ming merely narrowed his eyes: "Kid, you're not very big a fry, but you've got quite the nerve."

Ma Ling smiled coldly and landed three punches on Fang Ming's waist and abdomen, making Fang Ming taste a sweet sensation.

However, Fang Ming was tough; he swallowed the blood back in one gulp and chuckled.

"Hey, it doesn't hurt. Did your martial arts master teach you that?"

Upon hearing this, Ma Ling was somewhat angered and nodded repeatedly with a cold smile.

"Fine, fine! You're being stubborn, aren't you? Then try this."

As he spoke, Ma Ling put on something that looked like brass knuckles and threw a punch at Fang Ming's face.

Just then, a dark figure came hurtling towards Ma Ling from the side at an even faster speed. With a loud bang, Ma Ling was sent flying.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of a chain breaking was heard, and the chain suspending Fang Ming was pulled off.

Ma Ling clutched his lower back and abdomen, baring his teeth.

"Who is it? Are they out of their mind?"

Shen Qing lowered his head, and a burst of true energy swept through, snapping the iron chains binding Fang Ming.

"You have a foul mouth, you've inherited some of my skills."

"Is he alright?"

Fang Ming shook off the chains binding him and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"I got bitten by ants twice, but it's nothing, it doesn't hurt."

"By the way, sir, I have some information. Wei Jiong is on this mountain. He is a spy planted by the White Dragon Cult in the Embroidered Uniform Guard."

Shen Qing didn't take it seriously: "Just kill them all at once."

Ma Ling also recognized Shen Qing's centurion's uniform and turned pale: "Centurion? How did you get in? Where's my grandfather?"

Shen Qing raised the severed head that had just been used to smash Ma Ling's head and pointed at it: "Is this your grandfather?"

"I saw this old thing as soon as I walked in, so I just picked it off. I thought it was a speed bump."

Ma Ling's face turned deathly pale in an instant: "Grandpa..."

The next instant, Shen Qing swung his palm and severed Ma Ling's head: "You want to? Then I'll send you to see him."

Fang Ming suddenly remembered something: "Sir, what about my other men?"

Shen Qing lifted her foot and walked towards the cell door: "They're waiting outside. The messenger is down the mountain. You'd better treat him to a good meal later."

"That's right, that's right, I'll become sworn brothers with him right away." Fang Ming quickly strode off to catch up with Shen Qing.

As they stepped out of the prison cell, eight Imperial Guards emerged from the shadows: "Sir, there's no news. The Twin Absolutes Sect shouldn't have discovered us yet."

Fang Ming also looked at Shen Qing: "Sir, shall we sneak down the mountain now or...?"

Shen Qing shook his head, raised his hand, and shot out a hidden arrow. A dazzling red firework exploded in the air, leaving Fang Ming and several Imperial Guards dumbfounded.

A flash of blue light appeared in the air as the Qinghe Blade was drawn.

Shen Qing's voice turned colder.

"You guys better hide."

"Since we're already here..."

"Then let's block the fountain and kill them."
