After leaving the Zhenling Bureau, Jiang Qin and Su Lingwei strolled around Black Soil City.

It's a rare opportunity to come all this way, and it would be too monotonous to just go back like this. We should at least experience the local customs and culture.

Jiang Qin's gaze swept across the stalls on both sides of the street. Perhaps because of the frequent attacks on the city by ferocious beasts near the border, the meat of ferocious beasts, which is extremely expensive in Shanghai and Tianyun City, can be found everywhere in Black Soil City.

When a ferocious beast attacks the city, all warriors within the city have a duty to fight it off. Once the beast is killed, its flesh will naturally belong to the killer.

Su Lingwei has already started her shopping spree.

Cultivating throwing knives requires a great deal of mental and physical effort. She consumes several times more ferocious beast meat than an ordinary martial artist every day, so her expenses are considerable. Now that she sees so much ferocious beast meat for sale at low prices, she naturally wants to stock up on some.

The vendors' eyes lit up as if they had spotted a fat sheep.

"Miss, come and see my meat. It's freshly brought from the frontier today. 200 jin of second-tier ferocious beast meat, good for strengthening the body and replenishing qi, only 25!"

"Beautiful lady, don't listen to this guy's bragging. His meat did arrive today, but it probably died last week! Nobody wanted it, so it was dumped here. Look at mine, this is the freshest!"

"Zhang Ergou, what the hell are you spouting!"

"What's wrong? Can't I even speak the truth? Your meat isn't fresh, so let's fight!"

"you……!"

In the end, Su Lingwei bought a full thousand kilograms of ferocious beast meat.

Her personal storage bag was definitely not big enough, so she looked at Jiang Qin, the meaning of which was self-evident. Anyway, the two of them often went on missions together, so it didn't matter who put it in.

"Alright, stop staring at me like that."

Jiang Qin waved his hand helplessly, and the thousand-pound beast meat piled up like a small mountain was all stored in his spatial ring.

At that moment, a commotion arose in front of a shop not far away.

"Please, please, just give me something to eat. My child was just born, I can't watch him starve to death. Just one bite, I'll kneel down and beg you..."

"No, sir, I'm just a shopkeeper. Please don't make things difficult for me. Why don't you try asking at another shop?"

A ragged man knelt in front of the shop, holding a baby. He smelled foul, but the onlookers focused more on his empty left arm and right leg, sighing and shaking their heads.

Clearly, they were used to this kind of thing.

"I know this man, his name is Li Zhuang. Although he's not a martial artist, his body is much stronger than the average person. He used to work on construction sites, and through hard work, he managed to save some money, get married, and have children. But then..."

"Alas, on the day his wife gave birth, a group of black-toothed rats escaped from the underground pipes into the city. His wife was bitten to death by the black-toothed rats. In order to protect his child... by the time the people from the Town Spirit Bureau arrived, his arm and one leg had been bitten to pieces by those beasts and could not be reattached."

"He's quite pitiful, his baby was just born not long ago. Why don't we buy him some food?"

"hehe."

The moment he uttered those words, he was met with sneers from those around him:

"If you give him food today, all the beggars in the east of the city will hear the news and rush over tonight. Then the business of the whole street will be affected. Besides... even the police station in charge of relief isn't in a hurry, so why are you?"

As if on cue, a team of police officers arrived. The crowd quickly parted to make way, eager to see how the police would handle the situation.

Interestingly, the leader was an ordinary person.

The team members following behind were at least at the first level of the Mortal Realm, which was quite rare. Although not everyone in the Public Security Bureau was a martial artist, those who could become captains were, normally speaking, not ordinary people.

"Damn it, it's you again!"

When the security captain, Li Tao, saw the man with the missing arm and leg, he was filled with impatience. This was the same guy who had begged on another street yesterday, and Li Tao had him thrown back into the slums. He never expected him to come back today.

"You guys, take him back to the station right now and lock him up for two or three days. Let's see if he can still act up then."

The team members behind him couldn't bear to watch, but there was nothing they could do; after all, the other person had a deputy bureau chief as a father.

The surrounding crowd dared not utter a sound. They parted again to make way, and a man and a woman walked over. The young man's voice was clear and his expression calm.

"The Public Security Bureau's duty is to maintain urban stability and help people solve their problems. Is this how you treat suffering citizens?"

"Who are you?" Li Tao turned around impatiently, and seeing that more and more people were gathering around, he threatened with a sinister expression, "I advise you not to meddle in other people's business, or I'll arrest you too!"

He could tell that the two men had extraordinary bearing, so he was somewhat hesitant and dared not make a move directly.

But Jiang Qin wouldn't tolerate him. He took a step and walked several meters to Li Tao's side, lifting him up completely, his eyes looking at him as if he were a dead man.

Li Tao didn't expect him to suddenly attack. After struggling to no avail, he threatened again, "Cough cough... My dad is the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau. I advise you to release me right now, or I'll make you wish you were dead!"

However, the next second, his head tilted to the side and he stopped struggling, and the sound of his bones breaking was heard clearly in everyone's ears.

They never imagined that this young man would be so bold as to actually kill a member of the police force.

The other security guards' expressions changed slightly. Although they felt good watching this son of an official being treated, it would be a different story if he were killed in front of them.

Just as they were about to take action.

Su Lingwei stood in front of them, speaking lightly, "Are you sure you want to harm the investigators?"

The security guards' eyes cleared instantly. Oh, they were investigators from the Spirit Suppression Bureau. Oh, then it's alright.

Jiang Qin casually tossed the body to the ground, looked at one of the men, pointed at the corpse, and said, "Call his father. If he doesn't want to die, tell him to get over here in five minutes. Of course, if there are any other powerful figures in his family, remember to call them too."

It's best to nip it in the bud and eliminate all potential threats at once.

Reality is cruel. These days, not only do beasts and cultists bully people, but even our own compatriots are oppressed by those in power.

Jiang Qin didn't understand why they were so bold; perhaps it was because no one would punish them for it.

But since he encountered this situation...

It will definitely be thoroughly eradicated from top to bottom!

Not long after, Deputy Director Li of the Public Security Bureau rushed over in his car upon learning of his son's death.

When he saw his only son lying dead with his eyes wide open, he was blinded by rage. "You bastard! All I was doing was dealing with some beggars, and you killed Xiao Tao! I demand you pay for my son's life!!"

Deputy Director Li's spiritual energy erupted, and his cultivation level had reached the late stage of the Spirit Sea Realm.

With a powerful stomp, he charged towards Jiang Qin, the force of which created a crater in the ground. His attack was a deadly strike, showing no mercy whatsoever.

But just halfway there, he suddenly slowed down, and then his body fell to the ground in a strange way. Due to inertia, his body slid forward and finally stopped at Jiang Qin's feet.

Someone rubbed their eyes and looked closely, discovering that Director Li's head was rolling on the ground.

The spray of red and white substances, along with the strong smell of blood, made people feel uneasy.

What chills the hearts of those around them even more.

The deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, practically the pinnacle of the city's fighting force, died in a single encounter! They didn't even see how the young man made his move.
