If Xu Jingming hadnât escaped and was surrounded by Yellow Springs Sectâs bandits, he wouldâve probably lost his life.
âWhat about the auxiliary guardsâ losses?â Xu Jingming asked.
âDozens are dead,â Zhao Defang said coldly. âEven the Principales and the wing envoy are aware of this matter. As the captain, you canât escape from the charge of âincompetence.â Start thinking of your plea to the Principales.â
Xu Jingming silently turned around and left when he suddenly saw a wet figure running overâit was Zhang Ke.
âCaptain.â Zhang Ke, who was completely drenched, said in surprise and joy, âYouâre fine?â
âI happened to be out of the jurisdiction area and escaped a calamity,â Xu Jingming replied. Thankfully, one more member of his team survived.
âI had just left the brothel and was about to return home when I was attacked on the way. I jumped into the river and luckily escaped with my life,â recounted Zhang Ke. âI wonder where these vile criminals came from. They were so brutal.â
âI heard from the auxiliary guards that they are from the Yellow Springs Sect,â Xu Jingming said.
There were many auxiliary guards in the district, and almost all of them were qualified experts. They were also extremely fast at escaping. It was they who saw the numerous murderers and even recognized some wanted criminals.
âHow many brothers died?â Zhang Ke asked.

âApart from you and me, only three brothers are still alive.â Xu Jingmingâs expression turned nasty. âYellow Springs Sect has even attacked many of our brothers at their homes, not even letting their families off.â
âZhang Ke, get your ass over here!â Zhao Defang rode over and shouted angrily from afar. He wanted to question Deputy Captain Zhang Ke as well. He couldnât control Captain Jingmingâwho had a strong backerâbut he could definitely control Zhang Ke.
However, Deputy Captain Zhang Ke didnât even turn his head and ran away.
Xu Jingming also realized the problem and rushed over.
âB*stard!â Zhao Defang was furious. A mere Zhang Ke dared to ignore me?

Zhang Ke finally arrived home.
The door was wide open.
He stood in front of the door and looked inside. The blood that stained the paper windows and the corpses lying in the distance made his expression change.
Zhang Ke charged in like a madman.
Corpses appeared one after another.
His stubborn old fatherâwho had once been a Blood Rain Guardâhad a warped expression as he held a single saber and was impaled to the wall by a spear! The spear wasnât even taken away.
It was obvious how much hatred the enemy had. This old fellow had killed two Yellow Spring Sect experts.
The others in the residence didnât have the strength to resist, so they had all fallen one after another.
âDad, Mom, Ah PuâŠâ Zhang Keâs mind went completely blank. In the end, he hugged his three childrenâs corpses dazedly.
Zhang Keâs father had taught him martial arts since he was a child. He then entered the imperial capitalâs Blood Rain Guard step by step and married a virtuous wife.
His wife also gave him three children. He led a carefree life every day as he spent time drunk in a brothel with his friends.
âMy childrenâŠâ Zhang Ke hugged his children and sat there without moving. He was like a dead tree.
Xu Jingming felt terrible when he saw this. Even though he had experienced a lot in Blood Rain World, he still found it unbearable.
It is a virtual world!
This is the virtual world!
Everything⊠is virtual! If they die, they will come back to life in reality!
It is all virtual! Xu Jingming repeatedly attempted to convince himself.
Cheng Yanran, you lunatic! You lunatic! Xu Jingming couldnât suppress the anger in his heart. What do you take these people for? Ants? Pigs and dogs? Fine! This is the first time Iâve wanted to kill someone in Blood Rain World!
Xu Jingmingâs killing intent reached its peak.

The next morning.
Fei Qing had already entered the palace to meet the emperor.
âYour Majesty.â Fei Qing kneeled respectfully and handed over the dossier.
âGet up,â said the emperor with a warm smile.
Only then did Fei Qing get up. The attendant received the dossier and respectfully placed it in front of the emperor.
Only then did the emperor look at the dossier and say solemnly, âWhat? Criminals and bandits dare attack my Blood Rain Guard in the capital? A Blood Rain Guard team was almost wiped out?â
âThe murderers are from the Yellow Springs Sect. Many auxiliary guards recognized some of the wanted criminals,â Fei Qing said. âAnd the night before yesterday, the King of Yanâs sonâCheng Yanranâsent men to attack Luo Baichuan and Jingming. Because these two were my sisterâs best friends, Cheng Yanran went mad from failing to assassinate Jingming. He instructed the Yellow Springs Sect to kill the entire team under Jingming.â
âDo you have evidence?â The emperor looked at Fei Qing.
âYellow Springs Sect is based north,â Fei Qing replied. âAnd the strongest faction in the north is the King of Yan! Without the King of Yanâs permission, can the Yellow Springs Sect prosper?â
The emperor frowned and shook his head gently. âFei Qing, do you wish for me to punish Yanran?â
âYour Majesty, Cheng Yanran has a foul personality,â Fei Qing said. âIf we indulge him like this, he might cause trouble. We have to let him know fear!â
âAlright!â The emperor shot him a cold gaze. âLet me ask you again: Do you have any evidence?â
Fei Qing was slightly taken aback and lowered his head. âNo.â
âSince youâve confirmed that it was done by the Yellow Springs Sect, arrest them with a warrant and avenge the Blood Rain Guard.â The emperorâs voice was cold. âAs for Yanran⊠Fei Qing, you have to remember not to touch him without evidence.â
âYes, Your Majesty!â Fei Qing could only accept the decree with a bow.
