Xia Linyuan took out his phone, showed his ID photo to the Taoist priest, and said very politely, "Taoist priest, I work for the company. We have received information that members of the Quanxing sect have infiltrated Longhu Mountain. In order to prevent the Luotian Grand Ceremony from being disrupted by demons and to ensure its smooth conclusion, we hope that you can help us."

Upon seeing that Xia Linyuan was from the company, the Taoist priest's expression immediately became arrogant: "A person from the company? Thank you for the reminder, but I will find the Quanxing demon. You can watch the competition in peace."

Xia Linyuan had long anticipated this outcome. The boundaries between sects in the world of supernatural beings are strictly defined. Each sect should handle its own affairs. This is a long-standing rule in the world of supernatural beings. However, the company is almost unrestrained by these rules, as long as a supernatural being crosses the line.

Regardless of their sect or faction, they were all subjected to appropriate punishment. It was precisely for this reason that they were hated by the disciples of those sects.

"Then you'd better hurry up and act, otherwise if Quanxing causes trouble at the Luotian Grand Ceremony, it won't just be our company that loses face."

Xia Linyuan's refined smile and cool, indifferent voice caused the Taoist priest's face to fall.

"know."

The Taoist priest glanced at Xia Linyuan, then walked towards the audience seats, seemingly preparing to search alone.

Xia Linyuan sighed inwardly and followed about three meters behind the Taoist priest.

He passed by Liao Fan and gently patted him on the shoulder.

Liao Fan was startled, but breathed a sigh of relief when he realized it was Xia Linyuan: "Brother Xia, you're terrifying! You walk so quietly!"

Xia Linyuan apologized, then smiled and said, "I remember you had the Closed Yuan technique targeted, right?"

Liao Fan chuckled: "Yeah, want to buy it?"

Xia Linyuan shook his head: "No, I won't buy it. Come with me for a while and I'll let you stab whoever you want."

Liao Fan's expression immediately turned serious: "Brother Xia, the Closed Yuan Needle should not be used indiscriminately. You might make enemies if you're not careful."

As a Qi practitioner, to silently block someone's Qi is like a stranger slapping you in the face for no reason.

However, the world of supernatural beings is more dangerous. If the other party has an enemy and you seal their energy channels for no reason, the longer you seal their energy channels, the longer they will be in danger.

"We have received information that the All-Powerful Domain Poison may have already climbed the mountain."

Xia Linyuan said calmly, then solemnly, "The safety of the spectators here depends on your Qi-Closing Needle."

"it is good!"

Liao Fan immediately felt a great responsibility on his shoulders and nodded in agreement.

Xia Linyuan pointed to the Taoist priest and said, "We'll follow behind him."

Upon seeing this, Liao Fan blurted out, "Senior Brother Rongshan?"

"You know him?"

"I know him, he's a disciple of the Old Celestial Master."

"That's perfect, the effect is even stronger."

Xia Linyuan said calmly, then went to Rongshan's back. Rongshan didn't want to embarrass his sect, so he inspected very carefully. He wanted to check everyone.

That's exactly the effect Xia Linyuan wanted.

Xia Linyuan called this "the homeroom teacher's gaze," a very interesting phenomenon he discovered in high school.

For example, during evening self-study, students are doing their own things below the podium; some are studying diligently, while others are doing mischief. The teacher will occasionally step down from the podium and walk around. Sometimes, he'll even stand silently next to a few troublemakers.

The troublemaker's behavior is quite amusing. At first, he'll pretend to be nonchalant, pulling out his books and feigning study. After a while, he can't help but glance at the teacher. And after a little longer, he'll become restless.

The teacher was simply standing there. The students felt anxious only because they had something to hide.

It is a form of suppression from righteous teachers to wicked students.

This also applies to the current situation.

His infiltration into the mountains indicates his fear of being discovered. His disguise skills with the Domain Poison are unparalleled. Everyone in the Quanxing sect trusts him implicitly.

Therefore, when Rongshan passed by the Quanxing people...

His first reaction would be, "What are the Taoist priests from Longhu Mountain doing here?"

The second reaction would be, "Anyway, he can't find me."

Rongshan looked past, and the third reaction from the Quanxing people was, "What is this idiot looking for?"

Xia Linyuan was observing these three changes in gaze, demeanor, and physical reactions.

"Brother Liao, is the man in the red hat ahead of us capable of attaining the Daoist Governing Vessel?"

Xia Linyuan asked softly, after all, this would affect the safety of those around them. If Liao Fan couldn't do it, then he could take over.

Liao Fan hesitated for a moment: "Are you sure he's from Quanxing? He looks kind."

Xia Linyuan said no more, only uttering one word: "Zha".

Seeing Xia Linyuan's firm attitude, Liao Fan hardened his heart! So be it, he's just cooperating with the company anyway, and if he makes a mistake, it won't be his fault!

Liao Fan flicked his wrist, and a silver needle appeared between his fingers, which he flicked upwards into the sky. The Biyuan Needle was tiny, and now, once it reached the sky, it was even less noticeable. However, Liao Fan seemed to have a special connection to the Biyuan Needle; blue Qi gathered into a thread that connected to the end of the needle, and as it fell, he adjusted the needle's position and angle. It accurately struck the Du Meridian at the back of the red-hatted man's head.

The man in the red hat felt a sharp pain in his back. He was about to reach behind him to grab something.

Suddenly, golden light appeared in Xia Linyuan's hand, flowing and condensing into threads. He quickly stepped forward with ghostly steps, directly choking the man's mouth. In the man's astonished eyes, Xia Linyuan slapped the man's chin.

With a snap, the man fainted. Xia Linyuan then used golden light to bind him up, even though his hands and feet were numb.

This startled the woman next to the man.

Xia Linyuan smiled slightly: "Madam, don't panic. I'm from the company. I'm here to capture the Quanxing demon."

Xia Linyuan was handsome and had a very gentle smile, which made the woman feel a sense of goodwill towards him. She said softly, "I believe you, little brother."

"Thank you."

Xia Linyuan nodded. After binding the man in the red hat securely, he dragged him vertically on the ground. Then he said to Liao Fan, "Let's go, let's follow Master Rongshan."

Liao Fan quickly walked to Xia Linyuan's side, still shocked. Could Brother Xia have arrested the wrong person? After hesitating for a moment, he asked, "Brother Xia... he... we didn't arrest the wrong person, did we?"

Chapter 42

Xia Linyuan glanced at Liao Fan and saw the distrust in his eyes. He sighed inwardly. The people from the sect were too hesitant. They were just not as easy to use as the people from the company.

If it were someone from the East China Company, the time Liao Fan had to explain would have been enough for them to arrest four or five people.

"You will channel your Qi into this person's meridians."

Xia Linyuan said softly.

Liao Fan was slightly taken aback, then did as instructed. The man in the red hat suddenly changed; the red hat turned into a black beret, and his face also underwent a dramatic transformation.

"This is the power of Domain Poison. I know it very well, so please rest assured I won't arrest the wrong person."

Xia Linyuan affirmed.

Seeing this, Liao Fan finally felt relieved. If he had injured someone without any basis, Master Lu would have surely chopped him to pieces!

A crack! A thunderous sound pulled Liao Fan back to reality.

Looking towards the competition venue, one could see Lu Linglong lying on the ground, her body charred black.

wisps of black smoke slowly rose from his mouth.

exquisite!!!

Liao Fan cried out in his heart, his expression filled with grief.

But an even more arduous task awaits him!

As Xia Linyuan watched Liao Fan's expression change from light to dark, his own mood also changed accordingly.

Finally, unable to tolerate this indecisive person any longer, he stepped forward and asked Liao Fan, "How much does the Biyuan Acupuncture cost?"

Liao Fan clutched his pocket tightly: "Don't sell for now, arrest Quanxing first."

Xia Linyuan clenched his fist and nodded: "Okay, you'd better keep up from here."

Liao Fan nodded vigorously.

Seeing this, Xia Linyuan continued heading towards Rongshan's location.

The distance was increased from three meters to five meters because a member of the Quanxing sect, who had revealed their true form, was pulled behind them. They had to maintain a greater distance to prevent the Quanxing members from escaping and causing a riot.

Most Quanxing people reacted similarly when they saw Rongshan, but there were also some who thought they were clever and kept their eyes fixed straight ahead, ignoring Rongshan.

However, Xia Linyuan could still distinguish between those who were genuinely drawn to the competition and those who were merely pretending to be.

Moreover, a person with a thief in their heart will always secretly glance at the person who threatens them.

Xia Linyuan immediately confirmed that he was a member of the Quanxing sect.

After several collaborations, Liao Fan gradually trusted Xia Linyuan. Now he was Xia Linyuan's gun, and he would stab wherever Xia Linyuan pointed.

Xia Linyuan's technique was skillful; silencing the victim, knocking her unconscious, and binding her were all done smoothly and effortlessly. After watching it several times, I even felt a slight sense of artistry in it.

Liao Fan quickly shook his head, dispelling his wild thoughts, and then walked over to Xia Linyuan and asked softly, "Brother Xia, do you often do this kind of thing wherever you are?"

Xia Linyuan glanced at Liao Fan indifferently, his eyes full of stories.

Seeing that Xia Linyuan was about to speak, Liao Fan stopped him, saying, "No, no, no, Brother Xia, you'd better not say anything. I understand, it's confidential. The company is too complicated, it's better for me to know less."

These words made Xia Linyuan look at Liao Fan in a different light. 'He does know a thing or two.'

The branch market was quickly swept away by Xia Linyuan.

A total of 13 members of the Quanxing group were captured.
