Chapter 25 A Heart Full of Concern



He rushed over because he sensed the presence of a Martial King in the battle.

Unexpectedly, the battle ended in just a few minutes, and the one who killed the Martial King was actually a young man at the peak of martial arts.

This young man looked somewhat familiar, as if I had seen him somewhere before.

Sima Nian pondered in his mind, but his movements were swift; he had already walked up to Jiang Wuyuan: "Hello. I am Sima Nian, the captain of the Shanhai City patrol team. May I tell you what just happened?"

Jiang Wuyuan nodded: "Wait a moment."

He walked past Sima Nian and headed towards Hu Ying's corpse.

Sima Nian was initially wary of what Jiang Wuyuan was up to, but then he saw Jiang Wuyuan bend down and pry a spatial ring off the corpse's finger.

Sima Nian's lips twitched.

That's quite rare.

Although impressed by the young man's composure and martial prowess in the face of danger, Sima Nian still went over and temporarily confiscated the spoils of war obtained by Jiang Wuyuan, as it was his duty.

"Please cooperate with our work," Sima Nian said sternly. "What exactly happened here?"

“He tried to kill me, so I fought back and killed him,” Jiang Wuyuan said calmly.

Sima Nian nodded.

He glanced back discreetly and saw that one of the patrol team members behind him was also nodding, believing what Jiang Wuyuan had said.

His teammate had the talent to tell if someone was lying.

Clearly, Jiang Wuyuan was not lying.

If the excessive retaliation is caused by self-defense, the punishment is usually very light.

Although I believed Jiang Wuyuan's words, the procedures still had to be followed.

We need to go back to the urban management bureau to check the surveillance footage before they can let the person leave.

Since the revival of spiritual energy and the widespread adoption of martial arts, fights and brawls resulting in deaths have become increasingly common.

Although the laws of the Dragon Kingdom also prohibit killing within the city, self-defense is never wrong.

——

Meanwhile, Huo Ling arrived home early because he was in his own car.

Huo Ling leaned comfortably against the recliner in the room, waiting for Jiang Wuyuan to arrive home and send him a message.

After waiting for ages, I still didn't get a period.

Did this guy forget to let us know he got home safely?

Huo Ling was a little angry, so he picked up the bracelet and made a video call.

Jiang Wuyuan was sitting in the reception room of the Urban Management Bureau at this moment.

The patrol officers went to check the surveillance footage, leaving only one person sitting here with him.

When the video call came in, Jiang Wuyuan saw that it was from Huo Ling and immediately felt a headache coming on.

However, they quickly accepted the bracelet.

"Jiang! Wu! Yuan! Well, you little brat, you didn't know I'd been waiting for you here for ages... Huh?" Huo Ling looked at the four big characters "Serve the People" on the wall behind Jiang Wu Yuan with a puzzled expression. "When did you become so ideologically conscious?"

"..." Jiang Wuyuan was speechless. Although he didn't want to tell Huo Ling the truth and make him worry, he couldn't lie now, since he was a guest at the Urban Management Bureau. "I'm at the Urban Management Bureau."

"What?!" Huo Ling slammed his hand on the table and stood up.

Huo Ling knew all too well who was allowed into that place.

That's a place only people who have committed crimes go!

"Ice, what's going on?" Huo Ling hurriedly got up and put on his clothes. "Don't be afraid, I'm going to find my father. Just wait patiently, we'll definitely get you out."

Jiang Wuyuan's heart stirred slightly, but he still calmly recounted what had happened to him.

"You mean, a mid-stage Martial King tried to assassinate you? And you managed to kill him?" Huo Ling was shocked.

Even though he considered himself one of the few people who knew Jiang Wuyuan's strength very well, Jiang Wuyuan's growth rate was indeed too fast.

The patrol team members sitting next to Jiang Wuyuan and watching over him also twitched at the corners of their mouths.

To be honest, he didn't believe it at first either.

However, this man might be a young master from a powerful family, possessing some protective trump cards given to him by his elders, so his ability to kill King Wu is not entirely surprising.

After regaining his composure, Huo Ling said seriously, "This is a big deal. Don't worry, I'll go find my father right now, and we must find out who assassinated you."

Then, to prevent future troubles.

Huo Ling lowered his eyes slightly, concealing the fierce glint that flashed in them.

"Don't be afraid, we'll be there soon."

After Huo Ling finished speaking, he raised his hand and hung up the video call.

Jiang Wuyuan was slightly taken aback, then gave a helpless laugh.

It feels good to have someone care about you.

——

Meanwhile, the group that went to check the surveillance footage became increasingly alarmed.

Because the surveillance footage showed that Jiang Wuyuan did indeed kill the person using his own strength.

This is rather absurd.

A peak-level martial artist killing a mid-stage Martial King?

If this had happened before, and someone had said this to Sima Nian's face, Sima Nian would have immediately sent that person to a mental hospital.

"Captain, this..." a patrol team member said weakly.

Are geniuses of this caliber really someone they can handle?

I'm afraid I'll be silenced by the higher-ups at any moment.

Sima Nian also pinched his brow, feeling a headache coming on.

He finally realized why Jiang Wuyuan looked familiar. Wasn't he the prodigy with a blood energy value of 188 who was exposed just one day after the start of the college entrance examination?

The surveillance footage showed a mid-stage Martial King expert draped in a black robe, covering his entire body from head to toe.

If Jiang Wuyuan hadn't killed him and then examined the body, he probably wouldn't have been able to find out who this person really was.

However, now that Jiang Wuyuan has killed him, everything becomes much easier.

Right now, we can only focus on doing what needs to be done before considering other issues.

Suddenly, the door to the monitoring room was pushed open, and Huo Qianshan walked in quickly with a serious expression.
