"We screened Hu Minghao's call records and identified thirty suspicious numbers." Yimen Erlang continued.

"Brothers, after checking separately, one of the people with out-of-town numbers looks very suspicious. He also smells of a strange kind of medicine. He must be the person we're looking for!"

"Where are you now" the Judge asked in a deep voice.

He's just walked into a restaurant to have a meal!

"Send me the address!" the judge said before hanging up the phone.

Then, he turned to Ling Hao and repeated the situation.

Boom!

After a few minutes, the three people drove away.

In less than half an hour, Xuan Pang parked the car in front of a restaurant.

"I've met the Marshal and the Judge!" After the three men got out of the carriage, ten members of Yingmen quickly walked over.

"Are you still inside" Ling Hao asked.

"Mmm! By the window in the hall, wearing a dark gray robe."

"You guard outside and don't let anyone in for now," Ling Hao said, then walked into the hall.

Upon entering the hall, the three of them immediately spotted their target. He was busy grabbing food and drinking, with a medium-sized woven bag beside him.

Ling Hao then walked directly toward the other party, while Xuan Pang and the two went to walk around.

"Betray the people behind you, and I can spare your life." Ling Hao said calmly after sitting down opposite the man.

At this moment, he was completely certain that the other person was the one he had been looking for. As someone who had been raising venomous insects for years, their scent was different from ordinary people. Ling Hao recognized it instantly.

"Huh!" The man paused mid-raise of his wine glass, a strange glint flashing in his eyes.

"Sir, you have mistaken me for someone else" After draining his glass of wine in one gulp, the man looked at Ling Hao and asked.

"Don't have any illusions. You stand no chance, that will only let you taste pain before your death!" Ling Hao's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Everyone says you've got the wrong person. I have no idea what you're talking about." The man replied in a low voice.

Whew!

Before the words left her lips, she flicked her wrist. The wine glass swirled and whistled through the air, heading straight for Ling Hao's face.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

At almost the same time, two dark little snakes shot out from his sleeves.

Pff! Pff!

Ling Hao raised his hand and with a sweep, a gust of wind blew across the table. The wine cups and two venomous snakes instantly shattered, their blood dripping onto the tabletop with a sizzling sound.

"Hmm!" The man clearly didn't expect Ling Hao to have such skill, his eyebrows furrowed.

Wow!

Next, with a flick of the wrist, a cloud of black mist surged towards Ling Hao at lightning speed, and the size of the black mist grew larger and larger.

If you look closely, you'll find that the black mist is filled with countless tiny black bugs, making a hissing sound.

"Heretical!"

Ling Hao's eyes narrowed, and with another palm strike, the table was soon covered in a scattering of bloodstains.

Wow!

Meanwhile, the surrounding diners, persuaded by the two judges, rushed towards the restaurant door.

"How is that possible!" The man trembled all over, his face full of astonishment. "This black mist is poisonous! How could you be unharmed"

"Trivial tricks!" Ling Hao said calmly. "What other tricks do you have"

Whoosh!

The man seemed not to have given up yet, whistling out of his mouth.

Whew!

In the next moment, a snake as thick as an arm, emerald green and venomous, shot out of the woven bag at Ling Hao with incredible speed.

Pffft!

As expected, a blood mist exploded, and half of the snake's body fell onto the table, twitching for a few moments before going still.

Damn it!

The man said in a low voice, without any further hesitation, he flashed and darted out the door, his speed was extremely fast.

Your most proficient poisons would be like child's play to them. Staying behind would be a death sentence.

However, he was just a warrior-level martial artist. How could he possibly escape Ling Hao's grasp

He hadn't taken a few steps before three silver needles shot from his waist, striking him directly. He fell instantly, feeling nothing in his lower half.

"Who exactly are you Why aren't you afraid of the poison" She struggled to lift her head and looked at Ling Hao, opening her mouth to speak.

"How naive!" At this moment, Xuan Pang and the other person walked over. "You think you can hurt the King of the West with such a paltry trick That's truly a joke!"

"What...what! " Hearing Xuan Pang's words, the man trembled all over, his face filled with endless terror: "You...you are Ling Shuai!"

The name "Tree of Man", the shadow of a tree, the mere four characters "King of the Western Regions" were enough to bring him despair.

Had you known, General Xi Wangling was a figure even the elder statesmen of Miaojiang would turn pale at!

I actually ran into him myself. I must have left my calendar at home!

"Alright, tell me, who instructed you" Ling Hao walked up to him: "I'll emphasize again, don't get complacent, or you'll live worse than death!"

Whew!

The man let out a heavy sigh, his whole body slumping. He was completely deflated and had lost all his swagger.

He was very clear that in front of this old man, if he persisted any further, it would be asking for trouble.

"Yes, it was Min Shao who asked me to do this. He promised me that as long as I help him with this, he would give me a lot of medicinal resources."

"Which Min Shao" Ling Hao asked in a deep voice.

"Yan Junmin, he is the second young master of the Yan family, one of the four great families in Jianghai," the man replied.

"Is he in Dongzhou" the judge roared angrily.

"I, I don't know either," the man shook his head.

"They used patients as test subjects for the medicine, didn't they And you helped them with that Was it you who concocted the medicine" The judge continued to ask.

“I didn't participate in this matter,” the man shook his head again.

"Slash him!" Ling Hao spoke in a deep voice, then walked towards the door.

"No!" the man cried out hysterically.

Bah!

Before the words could leave his lips, a line of blood appeared on his throat. His body convulsed several times before falling still.

"Yan Junmin should be in Dongzhou. Get someone to check his phone number and find him immediately!" In a short while, the three got into the car, Ling Hao instructed.

"Received!" The judge nodded vigorously and took out his phone to make arrangements.

Ding dong!

After about a ten-minute drive, the judge's phone rang.

After answering the phone and listening for a while, he said, "I understand!"

"Big brother, Yan Junmin is really here. He's currently at a private estate." After putting away his phone, the Judge looked at Ling Hao.

"Good!" A chill emanated from Ling Hao. "Take the person back to Yǐngmén!"

"Received!" The judge and Xuanpang both nodded at the same time.

In two hours.

The judge carried a comatose young master into the Shadow Gate Council Hall, Xuan Pang following behind.

Boom!

Upon arriving in front of Ling Hao, the Judge placed Young Master back on the ground: "Big brother, this boy is Yan Junmin."

"Why are you grabbing me" Yan Junmin woke up and crawled to his feet, glaring at Ling Hao with gritted teeth.

"You people from the Shadow Gate are truly audacious, daring to touch me. Do you know who I am"and sprang up from the spot, his sword flashing toward Lu Yue in the driver's seat."You're asking for it!" Lu Yue narrowed his eyes, stomped hard on the gas pedal.Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!Four men in st...
