Martial Arts Overlord!

Pingshui City, a bustling street!

Drip! Drip!

The piercing sound of sirens tore through the night sky.

Less than two minutes after Zhao Wen appeared, more than a dozen police cars rushed in from all directions, completely surrounding the area.

Fully armed police officers jumped out of the car and quickly set up a cordon.

Several technicians in white protective suits carried metal boxes and quickly entered the scene, squatting down next to the three corpses to take photos and collect samples.

He Yulong stepped out of a black sedan, his face as dark as the sky before a storm.

He strode across the police line, his gaze lingering for a moment on the two saints' corpses before settling on the doctor's remains, which had largely regained their human form.

After death, its more than three-meter-tall body shrank to just over two meters like a deflated balloon, and its dark gray skin faded to a deathly pale color, with only the lotus tattoo on its arm remaining an eerie bright red.

The lotus has eight petals, but only one petal is painted with color.

Jiang Wanli, the police chief whom Lu Jin had met before, was squatting next to the corpse, his gloved hand flipping over the arm tattooed with lotus flowers, his face extremely ugly.

He then turned to the technicians behind him and asked, "Have you checked their identities?"

"We've found out, Director Jiang."

The technician looked at the tablet in his hand. "Bai Tianshui, male, 28 years old, a surgeon at the Third People's Hospital of Pingshui City. He joined the hospital three years ago through social recruitment. Colleagues describe him as humble, and he was even named an outstanding worker in his department last year."

Jiang Wanli remained silent for a long while before finally squeezing out a sentence through gritted teeth: "That damned cult is becoming increasingly rampant in its infiltration. A surgeon who was being recognized as an outstanding worker is actually a core member of the Holy Spirit Cult!"

He then stood up, took off his gloves, and turned his gaze to Lu Jin.

The black bloodstains on Lu Jin's body were not yet completely dry.

Jiang Wanli strode over and patted Lu Jin's shoulder heavily.

"Xiao Lu, you've grown to this extent in such a short time."

His voice was filled with undisguised shock: "You single-handedly took down all three members of this cult today! In all my years of handling cases, I, Jiang Wanli, have never seen such a terrifyingly talented young man!"

He Yulong stood to the side, his face still showing signs of shock.

He looked at Lu Jin, his tone complex: "Little Lu, your strength is truly astonishing. You dealt with three members of the Holy God Cult without lifting a finger. But it also makes me worry; this matter can't be kept secret."

If his superiors can't contact him for a long time during the day, they'll know something's wrong. The next time they target you, they'll send even stronger people.

Hearing this from the side, Chen Wei felt his blood boil and raised his arm, shouting, "Let them come! Even if Brother Lu Jin is ganged up on by a cult, he's still invincible!"

Lu Jin kicked him in the butt, making him stagger.

Then he raised his head, looking at He Yulong and Jiang Wanli. His voice wasn't loud, but every word carried a murderous intent that seeped from his very bones:

"I don't like this feeling. Is there any way to find the Holy Spirit Cult's hideout in Pingshui City? Let's kill them all before they make a move."

He can survive in the Eternal Night Ruins as long as he doesn't leave the Baijiang District.

However, if you want to continue improving in the Eternal Night Ruins, you must go to other areas.

Now, the Holy Church has its eyes on him again in reality, which makes Lu Jin very unhappy.

Find and eliminate them quickly. This will not only solve the immediate threat, but may also prevent a major upheaval in Pingshui City two months from now.

Zhao Wen shook his head: "It's difficult. As I just mentioned, the Holy God Realm is a parallel world exclusively belonging to the Holy God Sect. They cultivate a certain secret technique that allows them to freely travel between the real world and the Holy God Realm. People with weaker spiritual power than them can even be forcibly pulled into the Holy God Realm! That's how you and Chen Wei just entered."

Chen Wei became anxious: "So we can only passively take the beating? What kind of background does this cult have that they can actually have a parallel world?"

He Yulong chimed in, "That's not it. A martial artist with strong enough spiritual power can force their way into the Holy God Realm if they find the right location. But what then? There are no cameras or surveillance in the Holy God Realm. Pingshui City is so big, you have no idea where they're hiding!"

More importantly, most cult members look exactly like ordinary people before revealing their identities, making them impossible to trace.

"As for the origin of the Holy Realm, no one knows. Perhaps it is related to their leader."

At this point, He Yulong changed the subject, looking at Lu Jin with lingering fear, his tone resolute: "Fortunately, today was a close call! Lu, you must move to the inner city tomorrow!"

Lu Jin frowned but did not reply.

No matter how much I say, it's still not strong enough.

If we were strong enough, we could just wipe out any Holy Church.

Become stronger, and become stronger even faster!

"Still too weak!"

Lu Jin took a deep breath. Moving to the inner city would have to wait until he cleared out the Eternal Night Ruins in the other areas.

At this moment, Jiang Wanli interjected, "Little Lu, I have never seen your talent before. Moving to the inner city will indeed greatly improve your safety."

And there's something else, Xiao Lu. I'm planning to invite you to become an honorary squad leader at the Pingshui City Police Department, enjoying the same benefits as someone of that rank. No need to go to work or receive a salary, how about it?

At that moment, Lu Jin glanced at He Yulong.

He Yulong nodded calmly: "Okay. I am also the honorary deputy director of the police station. Having this title will make things much easier in the future."

"When you encounter certain people or situations, using your identity as a police officer is more effective than using your identity as a martial arts school disciple."

Upon hearing this, Lu Jin nodded: "Then thank you very much, Director Jiang. By the way, is there a reward for taking down three cult members this time?"

"Yes, we will issue a commendation and apply for a one million yuan bonus for you."

Jiang Wanli said with a smile.

At this moment, he was extremely shocked by Lu Jin's talent. He invited Lu Jin to become the honorary squad leader, which was also to do him a favor and to establish a good relationship in advance.

You should know that there are many young people practicing martial arts in the inner city, but to become an honorary member of their police station is something that many people would rather die for.

After all, a martial arts school disciple is just an ordinary person, an honorary squad leader of the police station.

Although it's an honorary position, it still means officially entering the system, having status and position, just without any real authority.

But if something really happens, Lu Jin can call people with just one phone call.

Chen Wei, standing to the side, gasped in shock. Another million.

Lu Jin remained unmoved, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized that the fact that there was no wanted notice and a reward was already quite good.

"Director Jiang, you don't need to cover this up for me this time. If you can't hide it anymore, then don't. It's out that I was the one who did the killing."

Jiang Wanli raised an eyebrow and finally nodded.

Anyway, it can't be hidden forever; the doctor's superiors will find out sooner or later.

It would be better to make it public. Lu Jin could gain some fame and at the same time, it would dampen the arrogance of the cult. Maybe they would be desperate and expose their true colors.

Lu Jin shared the same idea.

Since the Holy Church is going to attack me, then so be it!

Lu Jin wanted to see whether it was his speed of becoming stronger or the speed at which the Holy God Sect would kill him first!

"By the way, Master, does this count as making a huge contribution to the martial arts school? Does that mean I can learn another martial art?"

Hearing Lu Jin's words, He Yulong was taken aback for a moment, then nodded: "That definitely counts. The martial arts school will teach you tomorrow."

"However, I still want to remind you that you can't bite off more than you can chew."

"Don't worry, Master, I know what I'm doing."

Lu Jin's eyes gleamed; the more martial arts he learned, the faster his attributes would grow!

What level of martial arts skill?

He wants to become an absolute numerical monster as quickly as possible!

A few moments later, the police took over the area, and the crowd gradually dispersed.

Lu Jin and Zhao Wen escorted Chen Wei to his doorstep. Just then, Chen Wei looked at He Yulong and solemnly said, "Master, I want to become stronger."

He Yulong smiled and said, "Not bad, you weren't scared out of your wits. I'll have Jiang Zheng give you special training tomorrow."

Chen Wei nodded emphatically.

After what happened today, he finally realized just how weak he really was!

They don't even have the right to help Lu Jin!

This feeling is really unpleasant!

After Chen Wei entered, Lu Jin turned to He Yulong and said, "Master, Senior Brother, you should go back first. There should be nothing to do tonight."

He Yulong and Zhao Wen exchanged a glance, nodded, and turned to leave.

Lu Jin called out to Chen Wei, who was about to close the door, "Wait a minute, I have an idea."

"Brother Lu Jin, what are your thoughts?"

"Anyway, I'm offering the resources for free now. Once the million-dollar prize comes in, consider it an investment in your shop, and your whole family can move to the inner city."

Chen Wei was stunned.

Lu Jin didn't say anything more.

But Chen Wei guessed Lu Jin's thoughts. Today, Chen Wei was completely innocent and was dragged into the conflict with the Holy God Sect.

Lu Jin didn't want to see anything happen to Chen Wei's family, after all, they were friends, and the main reason was his own fault.

Another point is that he really doesn't know what to do with his money.

Previously, you could buy cultivation resources, but now everything that can be bought is free, and the money is even less useful for resources that can't be bought.

Why not invest in Chen Wei's shop and use your influence to expand it? That way, it will be easier to change weapons in the future.

Chen Wei nodded vigorously, then patted his chest: "Okay, thank you, Brother Lu Jin! From now on, Brother Lu Jin, I'll do anything for you, even go through fire and water!"

"My parents will definitely be very happy that you've invested in their shop."

Lu Jin smiled, turned and left, his figure disappearing into the night.

He didn't get back to his rented room until the early hours of the next day.

At that very moment, a notification popped up on the mobile phones of every resident of Pingshui City—

[Announcement: At 22:35 PM last night, Lu Jin, a student of Tianlong Martial Arts School and honorary squad leader of the Pingshui City Police Department, successfully discovered and killed three members of the Holy Spirit Cult, including a core member. He is hereby commended citywide!]

After countless people saw this announcement, almost no one in the entire city could sleep for a moment.

Everyone was speechless!

Why is it Lu Jin again!

In no time, the forum exploded, the group chat exploded, and the Moments feed exploded, instantly causing a huge uproar!

[Holy crap! No way, the core members of the cult shouldn't be weak, right? They were killed by Lu Jin too?]

This is outrageous. Considering Lu Jin's current strength...

His growth rate is terrifying; compared to him, I'm utterly useless!

Look at other people's kids! I'm already feeling the pressure on my lazy, good-for-nothing son.

[Honorary squad leader, huh? He's already in the system? What about all the eight years of hard work preparing for the exam?]

【You're bad at this.】

...

Meanwhile, in a dark corner of Pingshui City, the roars of the fist slaves rose and fell.

A thunderous roar resounded through the sky, causing dozens of people to immediately lower their heads!

"If you dare, repeat that again!"

"Master, the doctor is dead, and there are two third-tier saints left."

The gloomy man, referred to as the leader, had an icy gaze: "Didn't I say that if you're going to do something, you have to be 100% sure?"

"What are you all good for?"

"Master! It's really not our fault. We found out that Lu Jin is at the second level of the Yi Jin Jing."

"Let alone a doctor, even a third-order saint would be enough to kill him."

"Then tell me, how did the doctor die!"

A terrifying aura pressed down on these people, instantly forcing them to prostrate themselves on the ground. One of them said tremblingly:

"We... just checked again... this morning... this guy named Lu Jin swept through ten people at the fourth level of the Yi Jin Jing realm."

"His talent...is beyond all our imagination...he might already be at the first level of Bone Forging!"

At that moment, the man known as the hall master suddenly opened his eyes: "What did you say?!"

...
