I meet all the requirements for becoming a god in this world!

A cold wind blew into my collar.

"Just transmigrated... a mute potion..."

"The original owner of this body took leave and fell into a coma for three days while passing through Qinglong Mountain..."

"The memories of those three days have vanished..."

"The Xuanzhu case, Shen Jiake..."

"Spiritual rice, spiritual fields..."

"The Tian family, disciples of the Agricultural Bureau..."

"Sister Xinxiang..."

"Spirit rice from Qingzhou..."

"The Martial Arts Academy was transporting spirit rice, but was ambushed and killed..."

"Annulment of the engagement...self-examination in court..."

"Exchanging tokens of love, pledging their lives to each other..."

Since his transmigration, one clue after another has surfaced in Cheng Laiyun's mind.

Each of these clues is independent, fleeting, and without a clear direction.

But after hearing the words "The Martial Arts Academy has no gatekeeper."

A sudden inspiration struck Cheng Laiyun.

All the clues gradually emerged, transformed, and pieced together, eventually forming a terrifying truth!

……

Just as Cheng Laiyun was deep in thought.

A buzzing sound rang out in the air above the courtyard.

Cheng Laiyun looked up and saw Xu Jiayin descending into the courtyard on a flying torch.

Beside Xu Jiayin stood a familiar figure, a woman of elegant bearing and simple attire—it was Gao Heyun.

"Greetings, Lord Gao." Cheng Laiyun bowed to him upon seeing this.

Gao Heyun remained indifferent, her eyes devoid of any emotion: "No need for formalities."

"Shameless!" Xu Jiayin, her face flushed, cursed at Cheng Laiyun as soon as she landed.

"The Tian family is truly shameless!"

Seeing the young lady's excited state.

Cheng Laiyun sighed inwardly.

He naturally guessed why Xu Jiayin was in this state.

It all boils down to the two words "denying".

Before he could offer any words of comfort, Xu Jiayin poured out the whole story like beans spilling from a bamboo tube:

"I went to find Sister Gao immediately and reported what had happened in court."

"After hearing this, Sister Gao took me directly to the county government office and took Zhou, the registrar, into custody."

"Then the two of us took Zhou, the registrar, to the prison to interrogate Wang Po and the treacherous midwife."

"Just as I expected, all three of their testimonies point to the Tian family!"

"But when we arrived at the Tian family's house..." Xu Jiayin's already flushed face turned even paler, and she gritted her teeth as she spoke:

"The Tian family actually 'voluntarily' handed over the 'prisoner'."

"They claimed to know nothing about it, saying it was all the work of that 'culprit' who deceived his superiors and colluded with Zhou, the registrar, and two others..."

"What a clever way to cut your losses and survive!" Xu Jiayin's chest heaved, clearly quite angry.

"Ruining their reputation, forcing them to expose themselves... and it's all just gone like that!"

……

Gao Heyun remained expressionless and gently patted Xu Jiayin's head.

Then he turned his gaze to Cheng Laiyun:

"I have come here to check on the injured."

Cheng Laiyun looked up and met his gaze, calmly asking:

"Lord Gao, is this case just going to be closed like this?"

Gao Heyun's hand, hidden beneath her sleeve, paused slightly.

She turned her gaze to the tightly closed door.

The voice was cold and flat.

"Everything must be based on evidence."

Yes, evidence.

Miss Xu's fists clenched so tightly they made a "crackling" sound.

Cheng Laiyun pursed his lips.

Qi Dazhuang, who was in the courtyard, was also gritting his teeth, but his face showed dejection.

The Tian family handled this matter flawlessly.

Even Gao Heyun couldn't do anything about it.

In the silence.

Cheng Laiyun slowly raised his head, looked directly into Gao Heyun's eyes, and spoke softly:

"What if I have evidence?"

Ok?

This moment.

All eyes were on him.

Cheng Laiyun remained unhurried, his eyes gleaming with a profound stillness.

"Moreover, this evidence is enough to bring the Tian family to their doom."

"What evidence?!"

Xu Jiayin couldn't wait.

Her round eyes were fixed on Cheng Laiyun, unmoving.

Cheng Laiyun scanned the entire area.

Seeing the expectant looks on everyone's faces.

He calmly brushed the fallen leaves off his shoulder and then slowly began to speak:

"Young Miss, do you remember the other day when I was escorting spirit rice with Qi Dazhuang, but we were ambushed by thieves?"

"The evidence lies in that batch of spirit rice."

"Oh?!" Gao Heyun frowned slightly, narrowed her phoenix eyes, and stared straight at Cheng Laiyun.

"Young Master Xu Jiaqun made it very clear that day."

He said he met a rice merchant from Qingzhou two days ago.

"Then, just one day later, our Martial Arts Academy set off to meet Lingmi and escort her back to the manor..."

At this point, Cheng Laiyun looked up at Xu Jiayin, who was deep in thought:

"All in all, it's only been three days."

"But the spirit rice from Qingzhou... even if it was the grain that Young Master Xu had just met that grain merchant and transferred from Qingzhou, it would be absolutely impossible to deliver it to Yong'an County in three days!"

"In other words, this batch of spirit rice is from Yong'an County! There aren't even any grain merchants from Qingzhou involved; it was grown entirely within Yong'an County!"

That concludes the discussion.

Cheng Laiyun's gaze turned somber as he turned to Gao Heyun, who seemed hesitant to speak:

"I know what Lord Gao is trying to say: this batch of spirit rice may have been transported from Qingzhou in advance."

"And what about this time?"

"Just now, I learned from Qi Dazhuang that there is another batch of spirit rice that we need to transport back tomorrow."

"It's only been three days since the last time!"

"This further convinces me that Lingmi (a type of rice) doesn't originate from Qingzhou; it actually comes from Yong'an County!"

"And in the entire Yong'an County, there is only one person qualified and capable of cultivating the Spirit Rice!"

"That's the head of the Yong'an County Agricultural Office, and the current head of the Tian family, a branch of the agricultural clan!"

At this point, a glint of light flashed in Cheng Laiyun's phoenix eyes.

"Privately planting sacred rice! This is a disgrace to the nation! This is a grave crime! Sister Gao..."

Xu Jiayin had no doubt whatsoever about Cheng Laiyun's words. Her eyes lit up, and she looked at Gao Heyun with excitement, saying:

"We should head to the Tian family immediately and arrest the family head, Tian Jiude!"

Qi Dazhuang looked at Cheng Laiyun with trembling hands, his fists clenched tightly.

If that's the case, the Tian family will surely be destroyed!

Looking at everyone's performance.

Gao Heyun remained remarkably calm. She looked indifferently at Cheng Laiyun and parted her red lips slightly: "Even if your speculation is true."

"How could the Tian family possibly admit it?"

"Investigating a case cannot rely solely on guesswork."

"There must be solid evidence."

Yong'an County is so big, do you know how the Tian family grows their spiritual rice? Where do they grow it?

At this moment, Xu Jiayin clapped her hands excitedly and looked at Gao Heyun, saying:

"Evidence, right?"

"Isn't it scheduled that Laiyun and Dazhuang are going to meet Xinlingmi tomorrow?!"

"We'll go with them then, follow the clues, and we won't have trouble finding evidence!!"

Tsk.

Cheng Laiyun's eyes showed admiration as he glanced at Xu Jiayin and gave her a thumbs up, saying:

"Young Miss is quite quick-witted; I truly admire her."

Xu Jiayin raised her chin and gave a smug little "humph".

"However..." Cheng Laiyun's tone shifted, the smile gradually fading from his face, replaced by a deep and composed expression:

"There's no need for that."

"I know where the Tian family grew this spirit rice."

Um? ?

Xu Jiayin, Qi Dazhuang, and Gao Heyun were all taken aback.

"Hmm~" Just then, a groan came from inside the room.

"My sister's awake!" Qi Dazhuang subconsciously looked into the room, his simple face showing excitement.

"Oh?" Cheng Laiyun raised an eyebrow, a smirk playing on his lips.

"In that case, let's go inside and see Sister Xinxiang."

"Perfect timing, this matter is closely related to Sister Xinxiang."

He then followed closely behind Qi Dazhuang into the house.

……

In the house

Qi Xinxiang's eyes were lifeless.

He just lay there on the bed.

No matter how Qi Dazhuang called out to him, he did not answer.

"Senior Brother Ling, what's wrong with her...?" Xu Jiayin frowned and asked Ling Ziyun, who was standing to the side.

Ling Ziyun sighed, "The injured person is obsessed with something and is currently immersed in longing, so we should not disturb him lightly."

"What should we do then?" Qi Dazhuang asked anxiously.

"Just talk to her more, it's not a big deal." Ling Ziyun waved his hand.

Qi Dazhuang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"You just said that this matter is related to Sister Xinxiang. What exactly happened?" Xu Jiayin couldn't contain herself and stared intently at Cheng Laiyun as she spoke.

Cheng Laiyun looked at Qi Xinxiang, who was lost in thought.

He spoke softly:

"I still remember the first time I met Sister Xinxiang."

"She called out my name as soon as she opened her mouth."

"I even asked her at the time, 'Did we know each other before?'"

"But Sister Xinxiang immediately denied it, saying that it was the gatekeeper who said it when we passed by the gate of the Martial Arts Academy."

"But..." Cheng Laiyun's gaze was deep and thoughtful as he looked down at Xu Jiayin, and he said softly:

"The Martial Arts Academy doesn't even have a gatekeeper!"

Look into his eyes.

Xu Jiayin felt a little uncomfortable.

She swallowed instinctively and asked, "Wh...what do you mean?"

Cheng Laiyun squinted his eyes:

"This means that Sister Xinxiang must have known me before!"

"But I've searched through all my memories, and I can't recall when I met Sister Xinxiang..."

Cheng Laiyun's eyes gleamed as he looked at Qi Xinxiang, who remained listless on the bed, and pointed to his own head:

"However, when I asked for leave from Xu's Cloth Shop to go back and visit my cousin, I fell into a coma for three days while passing through Qinglong Mountain."

"Afterwards, I couldn't recall any of those three days at all!"

"Therefore, Sister Xinxiang must have met me during those three days!"

……

He finished speaking.

Qi Xinxiang on the bed trembled violently!

Then he turned his head and stared straight at Cheng Laiyun.

For the first time, those beautiful eyes gained color:

"Come on, Yun, brother..."

Her voice was hoarse, her eyes were red-rimmed, and tears had already fallen onto her pillow.

"Sister Xinxiang." Cheng Laiyun sighed softly when he saw Qi Xinxiang finally come to her senses, and then looked at everyone and continued:

"I must have seen some secret that I shouldn't have seen, which is why my memories of those three days disappeared."

"This secret... now appears to be the spirit field that the Tian family secretly cultivated!"

"Their privately cultivated spiritual fields are located on Azure Dragon Mountain!"

At this point, he took out a jade pendant engraved with "Lingming" and an embroidered gauze scarf from his pocket.

He handed it to Qi Xinxiang and said softly:

"From this jade pendant and gauze scarf, I can tell that my sister and Tian Lingming are engaged and have been having an affair for some time."

"So, Sister Xinxiang must have met me on Qinglong Mountain at the same time as Tian Lingming..."

…………

Everything seemed to have come together.

"But if you really stumble upon their secret, wouldn't it be better for them to just kill you? Back then, you were just an apprentice who knew nothing."

Xu Jiayin frowned and pointed out the biggest flaw in Cheng Laiyun's words.

Cheng Laiyun chuckled softly.

He looked at Xu Jiayin approvingly: "That's a good question."

"Young Miss, do you still remember the Xuanzhu case?"

Xu Jiayin's face stiffened.

Then, those eyes suddenly flashed with an extremely intense light:

"You mean...?"

"Yes!" Cheng Laiyun nodded and said calmly, "At that time, Lord Gao was searching for Shen Jiake on Qinglong Mountain."

"The reason they didn't kill me is..."

"They're wary of the Spirit Tracking Disc in Master Gao's possession!!"

As these words were spoken.

An eerie silence fell over the entire room!

It's watertight and flawless!

Qi Dazhuang, Xu Jiayin, Ling Ziyun, Gao Heyun.

The group stared blankly at Cheng Laiyun.

Not moving at all.

After a long while.

Gao Heyun was the first to regain her senses. Her expression became complicated as she looked at Cheng Laiyun and said quietly:

"So, the day before yesterday, when you and Qi Dazhuang were transporting spirit rice, the person who was ambushed was actually someone sent by the Tian family."

"They wanted to kill you from the very beginning."

"Yes!" Cheng Laiyun nodded solemnly.

It's so comfortable talking to smart people.

Gao Heyun narrowed her phoenix eyes, her voice cold and clear:

"Therefore, Qi Xinxiang's self-examination in court was also forced upon her."

"The Tian family not only doesn't want you to live, but they also don't want Qi Xinxiang to live..."

"Because I really can't think of any reason why Qi Xinxiang would carry a dagger with her before going to court..."

"Unless she knew something beforehand... and already had a death wish."

Niu Bo Yi!

Cheng Laiyun didn't say anything, he just gave a thumbs up.

…………

As the mystery is solved.

The only sound in the room was the breathing of everyone.

Everyone was lost in thought.

"Bang!"

Ling Ziyun, who was standing to the side, suddenly stood up, breaking the silence.

He stared intently at Cheng Laiyun, his breathing heavy.

"Junior Brother Cheng, you haven't entered the Dao yet, have you?"

Cheng Laiyun looked at him, puzzled, and asked, "Enter the Dao?"

"It means... that they have only reached the entry level, but have not yet officially begun any particular system of extraordinary cultivation."

Ling Ziyun quickly explained.

"That's true." Cheng Laiyun nodded.

"Great!!"

Ling Ziyun's breathing became increasingly heavy, and he spoke very quickly:

"Our medical school desperately needs someone like you!!"

Uh……

Cheng Laiyun blinked.

Will you accept me into the medical school?

"What?! You want to steal my man?!" Xu Jiayin realized what was happening at this moment.

She stared at Ling Ziyun warily:

"I'm warning you, Cheng Laiyun is one of my people!"

"The talented should be those with virtue; what do you mean by 'stealing talent from you'?"

Ling Ziyun looked at Xu Jiayin with a defiant expression, and without any regard for camaraderie, immediately launched into a confrontation:

"Which system Cheng Laiyun wants to cultivate is up to him, isn't it?"

"Sister Gao, look at him!!" Xu Jiayin was too good at judging the situation. She immediately put on a wronged face and acted coquettishly towards Gao Heyun.

Gao Heyun remained expressionless.

After thinking for a while, she gently patted Xu Jiayin's back.

Turning to look at Cheng Laiyun, he coughed lightly:

"Actually, if you're willing, the door to martial arts is always open for you."

Uh……

Cheng Laiyun blinked innocently.

Xu Jiayin's expression froze completely.
