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

The Spirit Butterfly Thousand Illusions Form can condense nine spirit butterflies, each of which can store an image.

Ye Kang currently only has one Spirit Butterfly, which he hasn't used yet.

He poured his true energy into it and carefully sketched the image of the spirit butterfly from memory.

Although Ye Kang had no talent for painting, this martial art was quite magical, seemingly leading directly to the depths of his memory, and he sketched out a rough outline in no time.

He then concealed the spirit butterfly within his dantian. A flash of blue light appeared, and his body began to writhe and reassemble like rubber, quickly transforming into another person.

Ye Kang took out a bronze mirror from the ancient jade treasure. The person inside looked exactly like Mr. Kang, even the wrinkles on his face were identical.

Even the closest people probably wouldn't be able to tell he's an imposter without communicating with him.

Ye Kang then took out a light-colored long robe from the antique treasures and put it on.

These are all items left behind by Fan Shanyue, mostly tools used to change appearances. Ye Kang didn't throw them away, but kept them for his own use.

After thinking for a moment, he took out Mr. Kang's pair of silver hooks, his expression turning ruthless, before returning to the Minister's residence.

At this moment in the Minister's residence, Minister Ma was holding his son's hand with concern, his eyes filled with worry and resentment.

"Don't worry, son. I've already sent men to find that man. Anyone who dares to harm my son will pay with their life!"

Young Master Ma wailed, "Father! Smash that man's bones! I want him to suffer a fate worse than death!"

The words of the two sent chills down the spines of the guards kneeling at the door.

Just then, a servant suddenly trotted over.

"Sir, Mr. Kang is back."

"Oh? You moved so quickly! Please come in!"

The Minister's face was full of excitement. He knew Mr. Kang's abilities. Although he wouldn't dare say that Mr. Kang could do whatever he wanted in the capital, he could definitely bully a mere martial artist.

However, when the servants brought Mr. Kang back, the Minister's expression showed some doubt.

Why did Mr. Kang change his clothes?

But then I thought about it again, and it must have been blood that had just been spilled, so changing clothes would be reasonable.

He walked over with a smile and asked, "Mr. Kang, has the matter been settled?"

However, the next second, a silver hook suddenly pierced his chest, heading straight for his heart.

The Minister's smile was still frozen on his face, his eyes filled with deep confusion.

Why...why kill me...?

Bang!

The silver hook was pulled out, and the Minister fell dead, blood gushing out.

At this moment, those present began to shout.

"Killing! Killing!"

"You dare kill the master!"

The guards' expressions changed drastically, and they instinctively wanted to attack.

However, Mr. Kang simply pointed with his silver hook, and everyone dared not step forward.

He looked at the Minister's corpse and said with a cold laugh, "Daring to disobey the Holy Maiden's orders, he deserves to die."

Leaving only this sentence behind, Mr. Kang used his light-footed skill to leave, ignoring everyone else, and disappeared into the night.

At this moment, the Minister's wife cried out in a mournful voice, "Quickly, go and summon the Ministry of Justice! Arrest the murderer!"

The Minister's residence was in complete chaos.

Mr. Kang disappeared completely after turning several times in the alley.

Only one young man walked out from the other end, his eyes clear and bright.

Ye Kang felt no psychological pressure regarding killing Minister Ma.

This person would hire someone to kill me at the slightest disagreement; this is hatred.

He also secretly colluded with that so-called saintess, who might even be a traitorous spy, making him even more deserving of death.

"By using Mr. Kang's identity to make this move, I suppose that Young Master Ma won't have the mind to cause me any trouble. I just don't know who this Holy Maiden really is."

Ye Kang found a secluded spot and took out Mr. Kang's body.

After searching around, they found only a few pieces of silver and a secret manual; nothing else to prove their identity.

The manual reads "Exquisite Immortal Gu Technique".

Ye Kang flipped through it once.

【Ding】

[Recorded Innate Martial Art: Exquisite Immortal Gu Technique]

The path of Gu is to seize creation and destroy human ethics. Only by refining millions of Gu worms can one attain the Great Dao of Immortal Gu. After reaching the Great Perfection, one can obtain the Exquisite Immortal Gu King to suppress all Gu. Entering the path requires 1 Enlightenment Points.

……

Ye Kang temporarily put away the secret manual, as he certainly didn't have the aptitude to learn it right now.

However, his intuition told him that keeping this martial art would definitely be useful.

"They just said that Minister Ma has the Gu seed of the Holy Maiden in his body, so we can be sure that this Holy Maiden comes from the South."

Gu worms only exist in the south.

Ye Kang didn't think much of it. With a wave of his Blazing Blade True Qi, Mr. Kang's body was burned to ashes, leaving no trace of evidence.

Surprisingly, among the ashes were many tiny corpses of Gu worms.

Ordinary people cannot see it with the naked eye, but Ye Kang, with his third-grade innate five senses, can see it clearly.

These Gu worms must have been made by Mr. Kang himself. Now that their master is dead, the Gu worms naturally cannot survive either.

After the fire had burned out, Ye Kang still felt uneasy, so he activated his true energy to shake the remaining ashes, completely turning them into dust before leaving with peace of mind.

At this point, the Minister's Mansion could no longer find the murderer, Mr. Kang.

……

Ye Kang quickly wandered back home.

By this time, the family members had all returned, and upon seeing Ye Kang, they all came out.

"Kang'er, Lingyu said you went out, and it worried your mother so much!"

"Brother Kang, I heard you beat up Minister Ma's son. Why don't we leave tonight to avoid retaliation from powerful figures?"

The family members discussed among themselves and decided to leave the capital as soon as possible.

Ye Kang shook his head.

"There's no need for that. I went to the Minister's residence to apologize and explain the situation, but I ran into an assassin who killed Minister Ma. The Minister's residence is in chaos now and they won't care about us."

When these words were spoken, everyone was dumbfounded.

The two sisters, Lingyu and Lingxiu, even had tears in their eyes.

"Good riddance! It was because of Minister Ma's framing that our family was destroyed and we died. We deserve to die!"

The cheerful and outgoing Lingxiu couldn't help but clap and cheer.

Her older sister, Lingyu, quickly stopped her.

"Don't do that! It might cause trouble if someone hears us."

She was perceptive and secretly glanced at Ye Kang, feeling that things weren't as coincidental as he described.

But the danger had passed, and the outcome was ultimately good. The family happily went back to sleep.

As expected, the capital city was shaken the next day.

The Minister of Works was murdered in his own home by thieves!

Simply lawless!

In an instant, the Ministry of Justice, the Imperial Guards, the Imperial City Guard, the City Patrol, the Six Doors, and the Capital Police all became busy.

The Ye family at this time.

Ye Kang's colleague, Zhang Gong, the deputy commander of the Imperial City Guard, suddenly came to visit.

Their purpose was simple: after all, such a big thing had happened, and they needed to inform Ye Kang.

The two then struck up a conversation.

Zhang Gong sighed, "Minister Ma is really unlucky. He's had a string of misfortunes these past few days. First, his son was beaten, then his own people were killed. This morning, the people in the Minister's residence were questioned countless times by countless groups of people."

As he spoke, Zhang Gong looked up at Ye Kang and said, "I heard that the person who beat his son was a young martial artist..."

"I was the one who hit him."

Ye Kang readily admitted it, then said, "I was originally waiting for the Minister to come and hold me accountable, but I didn't expect this to happen."

Zhang Gong feigned surprise and said, "I see. Brother Ye, you did a good job. That Minister's son has been doing evil all day long and deserves to be beaten. Alright, the tea is finished, so I won't disturb your rest any longer. I'll take my leave now."

"please."

Zhang Gong led his men away.

This matter involved many people, and many people traced it back to Ye Kang, but from beginning to end, no one suspected Ye Kang.

After all, there were too many people who witnessed the murder last night, and everyone's testimony can corroborate it.

The killer was Mr. Kang, not someone else.

A few days later, the matter was dropped.

However, the words left behind by "Mr. Kang" after the murder drew the court's attention to the mysterious saintess, which in turn revealed a great deal more...

Ye Kang finally received Lord Leng's message.
