Along the way, anything that blocked his path was crushed by his powerful divine soul. Moreover, with his current divine soul strength, he did not feel any strain during the short half-hour journey. In fact, the speed at which his divine soul was consumed was not as fast as the speed at which he recovered.

The journey was also shortened to half an hour by this powerful force.

Those on the road who witnessed this scene had no idea what kind of power it was.

The ignorant ones thought that a strange creature had descended upon the capital, and they were in complete chaos, but they dared not approach the road that Gu Changqing had cleared.

The news spread very quickly throughout the capital, but Gu Changqing didn't care. His current goal was simply to find out the origin of the broken jade pendant from the adjutant's granddaughter.

He didn't care how chaotic the capital would become because of his actions; his current goal was the jade pendant, and then all the strange artifacts in the empire.

Before long, on the wide road, the red sports car that Gu Changqing was in was about to arrive at the building where the Imperial Financial Vice-Officer was located.

Wang Qi also quickly said to Gu Changqing in the back seat:

"Sir, that dilapidated building over there is the adjutant's residence."

Upon hearing this, Gu Changqing perfectly controlled his mental energy, clearing away all the obstacles blocking the front of the dilapidated building in one go.

Swallowing hard, Wang Qi looked at the dilapidated building in front of him, and beneath the red sports car, at the sheets of paper containing images of people or objects.

Not a single drop of blood seeped out; everything, even the cells inside the human body, was crushed into paper-like pieces.

The driver at the front was not like Lord Wang Qi. Wang Qi had at least experienced many trials and tribulations, but the driver was just an ordinary person who had never even seen a dead person.

What's more, now those creatures who were also human are turning into sheets of paper right before his eyes. Apart from instinct leading him to drive the vehicle here, his mind is in complete chaos; he has gone mad.

Wang Qi's legs were trembling uncontrollably, but he still managed to unbuckle his seatbelt and then struggle to open the car door, despite his fear.

As soon as he got out of the car, Wang Qi almost fell to the ground because of his weak legs, but fortunately he managed to grab the car door in time.

After regaining his balance, he forcibly controlled his limp body and respectfully opened the back door of the car.

"Sir, this is the building."

Gu Changqing felt nothing at this moment, casually got out of the car, and looked up at the dilapidated building.

However, before entering the building, he did not forget the driver who had become demented. He casually flicked a ball of air, and the driver's head exploded inside the car like fireworks, with blood covering the entire interior of the vehicle.

This car is no good...

Wang Qi looked at the driver's headless corpse, not caring about the driver's death. He was just heartbroken about the limited edition sports car that he had spent hundreds of millions of imperial coins to buy. First, it was running at full speed, and now the car was covered with all kinds of liquids.

Even if he repaired the red sports car and cleaned out the corpses and blood inside, he still wouldn't want it.

"My lord, let me take you upstairs to the residence of the Imperial Finance Vice-Commissioner. However, the building is probably a bit dirty and messy, so please don't mind."

Instead of looking at his beloved sports car, Wang Qi turned to Gu Changqing beside him and whispered something, also reminding her of the dirty environment inside the building.

Without Wang Qi's reminder, Gu Changqing had already released his divine sense to explore the entire building, only to find it to be chaotic and disorganized.

However, he didn't care, since a simple cleansing spell was all it took to automatically shield him from the filth.

Inside that dilapidated building, there was only one place that his divine sense could not penetrate to investigate.

That must be where the Imperial Financial Officer is located, in one of the rooms on the fourth floor.

Seeing that Gu Changqing did not answer him, Wang Qi did not know what Gu Changqing was thinking, but now he had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk into the building.

"My lord, please come with me."
