I, a prison guard in the Heavenly Prison, secretly became invincible thanks to the system.

Day two.

After Ye Kang finished eating, several of his men, dressed in plain clothes, came to report.

"Lord Ye, we have made progress in the news about the flower thief. It is said that Jiayang City has been plagued by flower thieves since a year ago, and many young ladies from wealthy families have been victimized. The government has already changed the wanted posters several times."

"That's all? Is there anything else?"

"I've heard that the flower thief is extremely wicked. Every time he steals a flower, he first issues a flower-stealing token. Without exception, anyone who receives the token suffers a terrible fate. No matter how many guards there are, they can't stop him."

"In that case, he is indeed a master. He and Dai Huanhuan are from the same school and share the same arrogant nature."

Ye Kang pondered for a moment, then asked, "Have there been any flower-picking games recently?"

"Coincidentally, a woman received the flower-picking order just the other day. However, that woman has a special identity, and I think that the flower thief won't be able to do it."

"Who is it?"

"Zheng Hailong's concubine."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the room looked on in astonishment.

Who would have thought this flower thief would be so audacious, even going so far as to steal flowers from the city lord's concubine.

He Zhi cupped his hands and said, "Sir, Zheng Hailong himself is a master of the Innate Realm, and he has countless guards at home. That man is probably just bluffing and deliberately trying to mislead the authorities."

Ye Kang thought for a moment, then stood up and said, "Whether it's a smokescreen or not, let's go to the City Lord's Mansion first."

Immediately, more than a dozen elite guards from the Imperial City Guard, dressed in their finest attire, followed Ye Kang out of Wangjiang Tower.

Meanwhile, across from Wangjiang Tower, a group of martial arts practitioners saw Ye Kang and their eyes flashed with coldness.

“That man has come out. Tell the brothers to go to a secluded spot and make their move.”

Immediately, more than a dozen figures gathered from a distance and quietly followed behind Ye Kang and his group.

The man in the lead was none other than the guard who had been soundly beaten up by Jinbaobei yesterday, named Ding Wu.

The man was still injured, with a huge dark circle under his eyes and a cold expression.

After being beaten yesterday, the young master who was guarding him arranged for someone to follow him, ready to retaliate at any time.

This group is no ordinary people; at the very least, they are all top-tier experts, and there are even a few super-elite experts in charge.

Ding Wu and his group hung in the distance. Behind him, a burly man said with some worry, "Brother Ding, these are people from the Imperial City Guard. If we mess with them, won't the imperial court intervene?"

Ding Wu smiled dismissively.

"The Imperial City Guard is nothing but trash. They're the worst of the court's law enforcement agencies. Who would stand up for them? Besides, with my young master here, what are you afraid of?"

"That's good. Brother Ding, you don't need to lift a finger. Just watch our moves."

The burly man grinned menacingly, his fist clenching with a cracking sound.

Soon, the group left the bustling city and entered a hutong (alleyway).

As the number of pedestrians dwindled, Ding Wu was about to make his move when he saw Ye Kang suddenly turn around with a smile on his lips.

Seeing his expression, Ding Wu's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

The burly man behind him strode out.

"He spotted us and attacked immediately!"

Suddenly, more than a dozen martial artists rushed out, startling the pedestrians on the street.

Ye Kang didn't move. Seeing the big man throw a punch at him, he reached out to stop He Zhi, who was about to attack. At the same time, he swung his demon sword, and the scabbard struck the big man's face with great speed.

With a sharp crack, the burly man tumbled to the ground, spitting out a row of bloody teeth.

The remaining people were all shocked. Before they could react, Ye Kang had already moved. His scabbard kept slapping, and in an instant, more than a dozen people were sent flying, leaving a mess.

Throughout the entire ordeal, Ye Kang never even drew his knife.

In his eyes, these martial arts practitioners were no different from children.

"Arrest them all and throw them into the Jiayang government's prison, where they will be subjected to torture."

At Ye Kang's command, more than a dozen of his men rushed out and arrested these people.

Ye Kang had already beaten them all half to death, so they couldn't use any of their martial arts skills.

Then, he looked at Ding Wu with a smile.

"It's you again, attacking an official of the Imperial City Guard. This is a capital offense."

Ding Wu was drenched in sweat, utterly shocked.

He hadn't expected Ye Kang, who looked so young, to be so skilled in martial arts.

He said, trembling, "You can't kill me! I'm a guard of the Zheng family!"

"The Zheng family? Zheng Hailong?"

"Exactly!"

"What a coincidence! Well then, I'll trouble you to come with us."

Ye Kang waved his right hand and threw the demon sword out, knocking Ding Wu away with a bang. He Zhi immediately went over and captured the man.

Ye Kang hadn't expected such an unexpected gain.

When you visit someone's home, how can you do it without a gift?

So, Ding Wu and his group were escorted to the front and walked to the entrance of the city lord's mansion.

Upon seeing this commotion, the gatekeeper immediately ran inside to report, and soon a group of martial artists poured out.

"Ye Kang, Deputy Commander of the Imperial City Guard, has come to pay his respects to City Lord Zheng. Please inform him of my presence."

Ye Kang didn't waste any words and directly stated his name.

Soon, the steward came out and invited everyone into the mansion.

Before their eyes lay a vast garden. In the middle of the garden, a robust middle-aged man with graying temples lay on a deck chair, while behind him stood a young man in white with a panicked expression.

Upon seeing Ye Kang, the middle-aged man raised his eyelids slightly and extended his hand, saying, "Please offer Lord Ye a seat."

"Yes."

A sandalwood chair was brought over, and Ye Kang sat down without any hesitation.

"Lord Ye, you beat up all the guards in my household as soon as you arrived. You're quite skilled. When did the Imperial City Guard become able to afford a second Innate Realm expert?"

Zheng Hailong didn't even glance at Ding Wu, whose face was bruised and swollen; his eyes showed no concern whatsoever.

Ye Kang laughed and said, "Not at all, my skills are nothing compared to the city lord's. But they attacked me in the street, so I couldn't just stand by and do nothing."

Zheng Hailong nodded: "I already know about this matter. Since the servant was in the wrong first, you can punish him as you see fit. But what brings Lord Ye here so suddenly?"

"I have heard that flower thieves are rampant in the city, and have even set their sights on your wife. I am very worried and have come to see for myself."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Hailong burst into laughter.

"I'm sorry to trouble you, sir, but there's no need for you to take action. I, the city lord, can handle this myself. This mere clown, I'd like to see how much guts he has."

"Lord, the thief's skills are extraordinary; there may be unforeseen circumstances."

"Do you perhaps not trust the methods of this city lord?"

Zheng Hailong frowned, and a domineering aura rose up, startling the elite guards of the Imperial City Guard for a moment.

Third-grade Innate!

wild!

Ye Kang had not expected that the Lord of Jiayang City would have such strength. He knew that there was no point in saying more, so he stood up and cupped his hands in greeting.

"With the City Lord's divine might, I doubt that petty scoundrel would dare to make a move. I was overthinking it."

After saying that, Ye Kang turned and left with his men.

Ding Wu's face changed, and he shouted, "Master! Young master! Save me!"

However, no one paid any attention, and Young Master Zheng just watched him being taken away with a gloomy expression.

After Ye Kang left, Young Master Zheng gritted his teeth and said, "Father! Why didn't you kill these bastards!"

"Shut up! Killing a spy for the imperial court? How dare you say that? I'm warning you, keep a low profile from now on! Also, you're not allowed to have any more contact with that woman. A mere flower thief has actually attracted the attention of the Imperial City Guard and the Azure Scale Guard. That's quite a show."
