After coming out of the interrogation room, Xu An regained his solemn expression and kicked Xiantian Xiong Gui, who was as dead as a dog after the interrogation, into the jail.

Nearby, those who were watching here, whether they were dungeon warden or other prisoners, were all silent and did not dare to look Xu An in the eye.

Obviously, they could not imagine that Lord Xu, who was handsome and had a bright future, could be so decisive and brutal when he really took action.

The chief clerk of Yinting was standing nearby, and when he looked at Xu An, his eyes also changed slightly.

Although he knew in his heart that humans, like ghosts, were complex and multifaceted.

But during this period of time, the more they got along, the more he felt that he could not see through Xu An.

That kind of self-confidence, sharpness, decisiveness and intolerance were displayed in him one after another.

"Mr. Xu, have you found out?"

Seeing that the Red and Green Impermanence and the Yin soldiers and generals had not come out yet, and the screams after the torture were still ringing in his ears, Xu An continued:

"There's no time to lose, Master Chief, let's go first. According to the thieves, they often meet with other living ghosts in a secret place. When they meet, they all cover themselves with black robes to conceal their aura. I'm afraid if we go too late, we'll be in vain!"

"Oh? You're so cautious?"

Although he was unwilling to believe that Xu An could dig out the information from the other party so quickly, there were many tricks and eyes here, so Xu An obviously could not explain in detail.

In addition, they heard the screams from before.

At this moment, the chief clerk did not refuse.

The two men set off quickly, bringing with them a large number of ghost soldiers, and rushed through the city.

After finding another property of Zhao Guixiong, a large number of ghost soldiers rushed in without any explanation.

“Dig it for me!”

With a quick glance, Xu An looked at the courtyard where no one was fighting and gave the order directly.

After digging three feet into the ground, the secret room was revealed.

The chief clerk of Yinting looked at the scene in front of him and suddenly took action. The terrifying attacking force seemed to penetrate the mountain and broke through the secret room.

When the two ghosts entered, they found that the entire underground secret room was empty except for the practical furnishings.

After the sealing note was affixed, Xu An asked the chief clerk to take his men back first. He returned to the Tongpan Mansion and met Yang Wei again.

In front of him, Xu An fully recounted his findings and proposed some changes to the plan that the two had already made.

Yang Wei looked at him, shook his head, and continued to talk about his plan.

"It's too dangerous to do that."

Xu An's eyes widened, he disagreed with Yang Wei's plan.

"If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you catch the tiger's cubs?"

Yang Wei knew what he was worried about. His voice was slightly lowered. After making sure that he would not change his mind, he continued:

"Time is running out. If you are really worried about my safety, then do this for me as quickly as possible, otherwise it will be too late."

Xu An narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at him and said:

"Is there a ghost that can't hold back anymore?"

Yang Wei pointed at the silk cloth on the table and said:

"You've caused such a commotion in the city, catching ghosts and digging deep underground. Of course, they can't sit still. They think you're abusing your power for personal gain, and they're writing this manifesto to accuse you."

Xu An wanted to laugh after hearing this and said:

"Using power for personal gain? I've only been in Yinting for less than a month, and my biggest backer is you, Lord Yang. They can say such stupid things. I suddenly feel a lot more relieved."

Yang Wei sneered and looked at Xu An and said:

"You're just cannon fodder. If you want to catch a big fish, you need to use the bait. No matter what, you and I must play this game well."

Unable to persuade Yang Wei, Xu An had no choice but to agree with his approach.

After leaving the Tongpan Mansion, he quickly returned to the Yinting dungeon.

On the way, countless living ghosts in Yangzhou City retreated when they saw him.

Even though they have clean family backgrounds and are innocent, they are still afraid now, not knowing when it will be their turn.

After all, it was only one morning, and Lord Xu had already caught so many ghosts and put them in jail.

There is no such extent of retaliation.

Seeing that he was about to become the target of public criticism, Xu An's eyes became more determined.

After returning to the dungeon, the Red and Green Impermanence and the Yinbing generals had just finished interrogating the living ghosts they were responsible for, but after torturing them for a long time, they still did not get any useful information.

Obviously, there are two possibilities, either the other party is already a powerful ghost of a certain realm who can withstand torture and interrogation, or he has been controlled long ago.

The results are the same.

Just when they were feeling annoyed and thinking that they had lost to Xu An again, they looked up again and found that the number of ghost eyes in the dungeon had increased.

The Yin Court Chief Clerk, as if watching a show, said to the three ghosts and the dungeon guard:

"My colleagues, please work harder. Mr. Xu has just discovered the secret room where these evil creatures are hiding and has also captured dozens of ghost eyes. This is a great achievement."

As soon as these words were spoken, all the ghost faces turned black.

The more they looked, the more they felt something was wrong.

If he continues like this, the dungeon in Yinting might not be big enough for Xu An to store his things.

As he was thinking, seeing Xu An coming back, the Yin Bing general was the first to lose his patience and took two steps forward and said:

"Mr. Xu, I know you were attacked and your life was in danger, but even if you retaliate, there must be a limit. If we continue to involve you, and then go through trials and sentencing, who knows how many ghosts we will have to arrest..."

Xu An was now suspicious of all ghosts, his mind was extremely tense. He turned his head and looked at the ghost army general and said:

"You and I are colleagues, judging this case together. You are speaking for them. Do you intend to protect them?"

The Yinbing general suddenly glared and said:

"Mr. Xu, what you said is wrong. I am doing this for your own good. I am afraid that you will be too aggressive and offend too many people."

"Although the main city of Yangzhou is under the jurisdiction of the Yin Court, it is also home to many living ghosts. There are many powerful ghost heroes among them. Your actions will arouse their dissatisfaction!"

Xu An narrowed his eyes and said:

"Why weren't these heroic ghosts here when Mu Linjiang came knocking on our door?"

The Yin soldiers and generals, the Red and Green Impermanence, the Yin Court Chief, the dungeon warden, and other supervisors were all speechless and unable to refute.

"If they are dissatisfied, it's because I have affected their interests. The Yin Court is no longer the same as before where they could act recklessly. If you colleagues don't want to be bogged down in this mess, I will do it myself."

Xu An's eyes swept over them, and the many living ghosts in the dungeon were moved by him, their breathing slightly tightened, and their eyes became eager.

"What are you talking about? You're allowed to run around to maintain stability in the current situation, but you won't allow me to wait and work hand in hand with you, right?"

The Red and Green Impermanence looked at each other. Although they had conflicts and grudges with Xu An, they had also had unpleasant experiences.

But they are colleagues after all. When the Yin Court is facing constant vicious incidents and the collapse of order, they will eventually have to advance and retreat together.

What's more, everything that happened during this period of time has been constantly proving and emphasizing this.

That is, Xu An is really outstanding...

When they came out of the interrogation cell, they had gradually begun to admire Xu An.

At this moment, looking at him, he was determined to do something regardless of the consequences.

These two ghosts who had worked in the underworld for many years and whose tempers had been worn down suddenly felt the fire in their hearts burn again and there was light in their eyes!
