Zongwu: Start as Jinyiwei, invincible and powerful!

Lin Fan said calmly, "You have two pickpockets under your command, one named Kou Zhong and the other named Xu Ziling."

Upon hearing this, Boss Yan quickly said, "It was these two men, hero. Were they the ones who stole your things? I'll have someone call those two guys over and skin them alive!"

"Steal my things? I'm afraid they don't have that ability." Lin Fan smiled faintly and said disdainfully, "Alright, take me to their residence yourself. I need to find them for something."

"Yes, hero!"

Boss Yan did not dare to hesitate and immediately responded respectfully.

Next, Lin Fan and Lin Pingzhi, led by Boss Yan and his men, soon arrived at an abandoned garden in the east of Yangzhou City.

"Hero, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling are two little kids, without parents or home, who usually live in this broken garden," Boss Yan said respectfully to Lin Fan after leading him to the abandoned garden.

"Let your people search!"

Lin Fan waved his hand and said calmly.

"Yes," Boss Yan agreed, and then quickly ordered his thugs to search for Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling in the abandoned garden, but unfortunately they did not find them.

"Boss, there's a crypt here!"

Suddenly, a gangster shouted at Boss Yan.

"Let's go and take a look," Lin Fan raised his brows slightly and went ahead, followed closely by Lin Pingzhi and Boss Yan.

Soon, they saw the dungeon that the gangster had mentioned.

However, the cave was empty, and there were traces of footprints at the edge of the cave.

"Damn it, they let these two brats escape!" Boss Yan cursed when he saw this.

Lin Fan frowned and immediately asked, "Are there any hidden channels leading out of the city nearby? We're mainly searching near the east gate."

Upon hearing this, Boss Yan thought quickly and said after a while, "Sir, I remember now. Not far from the east gate, there is indeed a culvert leading to the outside of the city, which is used to drain the city's sewage."

"lead the way!"

Lin Fan didn't say much, and Boss Yan didn't dare to ask any more questions. He immediately took Lin Fan to the location of the secret canal.

"Bring the hunting dogs with you and follow us out of the city to the exit of this culvert to search for Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling." Lin Fan looked at the culvert for a while, calculated the direction, and instructed Boss Yan.

Boss Yan naturally did not dare to have any objection to this and immediately did as Lin Fan instructed.

Soon, the group arrived at the east gate exit of Yangzhou City with the hunting dogs.

"Stop! Yangzhou City has been sealed off. No one is allowed to enter or leave!"

The guard at the city gate immediately shouted to stop them when he saw Lin Fan and others coming.

"Hero, what should we do?" Boss Yan was horrified when he saw this.

"Humph!"

Lin Fan snorted coldly, unsheathed the embroidered spring sword from his waist, and slashed directly at the closed city gate.

Rumble!

In an instant, the city gate that was tens of meters high was shattered into pieces by the terrifying sword light.

Some guards who were unable to dodge in time were directly injured by the fragments of the city gate and screamed in pain.

"Crash!"

When the guards at the city gate saw this scene, their faces changed drastically and they subconsciously stepped back to make way.

"Out of town!"

Lin Fan sheathed his sword and spoke softly.

"Yes Yes……"

Boss Yan now treated Lin Fan with even greater respect, and quickly responded respectfully.

Soon, the group left the city and searched for the exit of the culvert.

The guards at the city gate were panicked and went to the Yangzhou government office to report the news.

With the help of Boss Yan and his group of dogs, the group soon found the traces of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling.

The two were bathing in a stream not far from the ditch.

On the bank of their stream, there stood a woman in white clothes as white as snow and a conical hat on her head.

"Oh no, Boss Yan is here with his men!"

Kou Zhong had sharp eyes and when he saw Boss Yan, he immediately let out a strange cry.

Xu Ziling's expression also changed drastically.

Lin Fan naturally discovered them as well, and immediately stopped paying attention to Boss Yan. He used the Immortal Steps and instantly landed on the bank of the stream.

"What a superb martial art! I wonder who you are?" The woman in white saw Lin Fan's martial art and her expression changed slightly. She placed her hand on the hilt of the sword and spoke cautiously.

Lin Fan smiled and said, "My name is Lin Fan. I'm just here to look for these two brats. I have nothing to do with the young lady."

Upon hearing this, Kou Zhong quickly asked, "Sir, what do you want to talk to us about?"

Xu Ziling asked, "Do you have questions for us, just like this great man in white? If you have any questions, feel free to ask. We will answer them with all our heart."

Lin Fan asked, "Are your names Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling?"

"Yes."

"No."

Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling looked at each other and answered at the same time, but their answers were different.

"It seems that it is you," Lin Fan smiled and glanced around the shore. He soon found an inconspicuous-looking book placed on a big rock.

Kou Zhong was nervous, but his expression remained calm. He said respectfully, "Sir, that's the sage book that Master Bai ordered us to read. Would you like to take a look at it?"

"Okay," Lin Fan glanced at Kou Zhong with a half-smile, then stretched out his hand and took the book in his hand. He flipped through it and found that there were seven pictures in it, which was undoubtedly the secret of immortality.

Kou Zhong was shocked when he saw Lin Fan's actions. He exchanged a glance with Xu Ziling and prayed silently that Lin Fan would not notice anything.

Unfortunately, they were destined to be disappointed.

Lin Fan casually scanned it and directly stored the Changsheng Jue into the system space. He smiled and said, "This sage book is very good. I will accept it."

"Ah, hero, that was lent to us by Mr. Bai, and we have to return it," Kou Zhong was startled when he heard that, and screamed in a strange manner.

At this time, Boss Yan also caught up and angrily scolded: "It's a blessing for you that the hero likes your lousy book. How dare you talk nonsense?"

Afterwards, Boss Yan said to Lin Fan, "Hero, don't listen to that guy. They are pickpockets from Yangzhou City. They must have stolen the book."

When Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling saw that they were exposed by Boss Yan, they were immediately helpless.

"Okay, you have nothing to do here, you can leave," Lin Fan waved his hand and said to Boss Yan.

"Yes, I'll take my leave!"

Upon hearing this, Boss Yan responded respectfully, and then quickly left with his younger brothers.

Lin Fan stroked his chin, looking at Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling in the water, various thoughts flashing through his mind.

Kou Zhong covered himself with his hands and said in a strange voice, "Hero, you... you are not interested in us, are you?"

Lin Fan said calmly, "Don't be so sentimental. I'm just thinking about how to deal with you."

"Hero, you have taken the book. Why don't we say goodbye here?" Xu Ziling's heart skipped a beat and he said cautiously.

The woman in white beside her also had a flickering look in her eyes, and it was unknown what she was thinking.
