Wuxia: Start with max-level Nine Yang Divine Skill

Li Fu took the hit head-on with a palm strike.

Bang.

Clasp your palms together!

A strange burning sensation invaded the meridians of the arm, but it soon disappeared like snow melting in spring after encountering the rich Nine Yang True Qi.

Li Fu was slightly shocked; the poison was indeed potent.

If it weren't for the fact that his Nine Yang True Qi had reached its peak, allowing his protective true qi to circulate and neutralize the poison on its own, anyone else would have had to stop and circulate their energy to resist even if they didn't immediately fall down after being struck by his palm, otherwise they would have to wait for the poison to take effect.

The white-clad man was shaken when he exchanged a blow with Li Fu.

"Not bad, your poison has finally made me feel something again."

Li Fu's offensive became even more ferocious.

He acted as if nothing had happened.

Could it be that even the Corrosive Poison Palm, a secret technique passed down by my sect, is ineffective against this opponent?

Although he used his true poison skills and immediately reversed some of the decline, he knew that if he continued fighting like this, the situation would not be good.

He was blasted back several steps by another palm strike. The man in white felt a sweet taste in his throat, which he forcibly suppressed, and shouted loudly.

"Stop! Don't think I'm afraid of you. I'm not the murderer you're looking for. I have important matters to attend to and don't have time for this."

He suddenly waved his sleeve!

A large plume of thick white smoke billowed out, enveloping an area of ​​about ten feet in diameter!

Li Fu waved his palm to disperse the stagnation, holding his breath as he tried to pass through, but the stagnation caused his muscles and bones to weaken, and his internal energy in his dantian to stagnate and become difficult to circulate.

"Is it a sleeping potion?"

This medicine is far more potent than the colorful poisonous smoke and poisonous palm from before!

It's probably no weaker than the Ten Fragrant Softening Powder.

Alarm bells rang in Li Fu's mind, and he activated the Nine Yang Divine Skill to expel the poison.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the man in white soared into the sky like a light white crane, and in a few leaps he was already several feet away.

"Where do you think you're going!"

"You still say you're not the murderer and have nothing to do with the case?"

Li Fu would not allow him to escape so easily. He circulated his true energy to get rid of the obstruction and unleashed a palm strike that shocked a hundred miles away.

The man in white, still in mid-air, turned around and slapped away the incoming palm force, using the momentum to fly even further away, a trace of bright red blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

His voice, tinged with anger, drifted from afar after he had suffered a loss.

"Excellent skills, excellent martial arts."

"We'll meet again someday, though mountains and rivers may separate us!"

In the blink of an eye, his figure had blended into the distant rooftops and disappeared.

"Such fast light-footed skill!"

Li took two steps to catch up, but seeing the figure flying away at high speed, he knew that his lightness skill was definitely not up to par, so he did not waste any more effort.

If someone possesses exceptional lightness skill or the ability to flick their fingers, they should never think they can escape from him.

pity……

"This person denies being the murderer, yet possesses such potent poison skills and sedatives, especially this sedative..."

"Judging from his age, he and Cao Yu are about the same age."

Is he the elder brother Cao Yu mentioned?

Or perhaps an accomplice or henchman of a master thief who robbed treasure?

"Chen Tao, Chen Tao."

Li Fu thought for a moment, then called out twice, preparing to return to the government office to gather manpower and investigate the case.

Now we have two directions to take in solving the case.

First, someone from Jinwei Escort Agency might know the murderer; second, the height and characteristics of this suspected murderer have already been revealed.

"Sir...sir..."

But then came Chen Tao's weak and panicked calls from behind.

Li Fu turned around and saw Chen Tao slumped on the ground, his face pale, unable to move even his fingers.

He had just been standing downwind and had only inhaled a trace of the drug residue that was drifting in the wind when he was completely paralyzed and his internal energy was as if it had been destroyed!

"My lord, your foresight is uncanny... It really is a sleeping potion... It's...it's terrifying...Just a trace...that person...must be the treasure robber!"

Chen Tao's tongue was tied in knots as he personally witnessed the terrifying power of the drug. He had no more doubts about Li Fu's deduction and was filled with admiration.

In fact, Li Fu was only making a deduction. He was not sure whether it was a subtle martial art that was "seemingly slow but actually fast" or a strange poison or drug, but now he could be sure.

"Concentrate and circulate your energy."

Li Fu had no choice but to first circulate his Nine Yang True Qi and place his palm on Chen Tao's back.

A gentle, profound surge of true energy flowed in, like warm sunshine melting ice. After about half a cup of tea's time, Chen Tao barely regained his mobility, though his limbs were still weak.

"This drug is perhaps no less potent than the Ten Fragrance Softening Powder, but it is still not as colorless and odorless as the Ten Fragrance Softening Powder."

If this kind of drug is known in advance, it can be prevented.

……

The sun had already set, but the police station in the prefectural government office was still brightly lit.

The two men hurried back to the government office.

"Everyone, come here."

Li Fu, dressed in the blue uniform of a constable, strode into the courtyard of the constables' quarters and gestured for all the constables in blue and brown uniforms to come inside for a meeting.

The once slightly noisy courtyard instantly fell silent.

All eyes turned to him.

Upon entering the room, Li Fu turned around and calmly surveyed the crowd.

"There has been progress in the case of the treasure robbery."

From this moment forward, unless you have a particularly important murder case at hand, please put aside your other matters and focus all your efforts on investigating this case!

These words immediately sparked a low murmur of suppressed discussion in the courtyard.

"So fast?"

"You've only been in charge for less than a day, haven't you?"

The notorious robber sent a note three days ago demanding a ransom and requesting a response from the government within seven days. He threatened that if they did not comply, he would commit more bloodshed and make the government lose face.

No one dared to take on the case, and everyone investigated separately, but they were all clueless.

Upon hearing that Li Fu had taken on this case, everyone prepared to secretly observe and see if this young constable in blue robes, who was no more than twenty years old, could solve this serial murder case within just four days.

Unexpectedly, progress was made before the day was even over?

"Really?"

"Is it really true that great reputations are well-deserved?"

Chen Tao stood to one side, his face still pale.

Li Fu ignored these comments and spoke succinctly.

"Upon investigation, the massacre of the Jinwei Escort Agency family is the key."

He got straight to the point: "This case is different from other robberies. First, the stolen goods are unknown, so it may not be a simple case of robbery. Second, there are clear signs of murder to cover up the crimes, and even the servants who pose no threat were not spared."

Thirdly, the deceased's expression at the moment of death, a mixture of terror, anger, and intense bewilderment, suggested that he might have known the murderer!

He explained in detail the key clues obtained from the autopsy at the mortuary, the unique look of fear and astonishment on the faces of the deceased from the Jinwei Escort Agency before their deaths, and the subsequent encounter with the white-clad masked man, the course of the fight, and the strange and domineering nature of the man's poisonous palm and sleeping potion.

The cell fell silent immediately.

The constables and their officers looked at each other in bewilderment.

The newly arrived Constable Li, having taken over this series of murders that shocked the entire state less than a day ago, seems to have actually found a clue?

Some people stole glances at Li Fu's young yet composed face, and felt a chill run down their spines.

Even ruthless villains like Han Wenyuan and Duan Gang, who had deceived everyone, fell into his hands. It was no accident!

Although this person is young, his skills and insight are truly remarkable!

Li Fu's gaze swept over the crowd, and he gave the order in a deep voice.

"Several constables in blue uniforms, each leading their own constables."

Without any hesitation, he began to appoint his generals with great decisiveness.

"Officer Wang."

Li Fu's gaze fell on a blue-clad constable who was about forty years old and had a calm demeanor. Chen Tao had already given him a general and detailed introduction to these people.

"You, immediately lead men to seal off the former site of the Jinwei Escort Agency."

A thorough investigation was conducted into all business dealings, financial changes, and contacts of the escort agency over the past three months.

Especially those figures in the martial arts world who have suddenly come into contact or become estranged within the past two weeks—account books, letters, and every single clue must be thoroughly examined!

He acted swiftly and decisively, immediately assigning tasks and issuing orders to officially begin solving the case.
