Although searching, Chen Yuan's mind was focused on Head Constable Huang Xing, wondering why he had prevented him from investigating the Liu family's ancestral graves.

Was he overthinking things, did Huang Xing simply think it would be useless, or did Huang Xing have some plan he didn't want him to know...

Chen Yuan let his thoughts wander, constantly pondering. Such was his nature; he would repeatedly mull over even a small matter.

Cautious, suspicious, scheming...

They were all adults; who could be so naive?

Ping An County was still bustling, and most people were unaware that the Unborn Teachings demons were causing trouble in the city again, so there was little panic.

However, the constables and yamen runners of the county office, armed with long sabers, glared fiercely at the pedestrians on the road, questioning any strangers they noticed.

As for anyone with a limp, needless to say, they were immediately arrested.

Chen Yuan opened his Heaven's Eye pupil technique, observing if there was anyone who caught his attention.

Unfortunately, Chen Yuan was just wishful thinking. How could a small Ping An County have so many people with good fortune?

However, Chen Yuan himself didn't have much hope; it was just a daily routine.

After finishing the day's search, Chen Yuan returned home. Today, County Magistrate Wu Qingfeng and County Commandant Li Mingqi were furious when they learned that the Unborn Teachings demons were causing trouble again.

They severely reprimanded Head Constable Huang Xing.

Huang Xing, in turn, didn't take all the blame but turned around and began to scold the yamen runners and white servants, making them gnash their teeth in hatred!

Most importantly, Chen Yuan himself didn't understand why Huang Xing's attitude towards him had suddenly dropped. He had seemed to appreciate him before.

But when Chen Yuan was being reprimanded today, he noticed that Huang Xing seemed to have some aversion to him.

Although it wasn't obvious, Chen Yuan, who had been paying attention to Huang Xing, still noticed it.

After thinking for a long time, Chen Yuan could only attribute the reason to what happened today, including determining that one of the people who killed the Liu family of a dozen people had a limp.

The county office arrested no less than ten people with a limp today, but after interrogation, none of them had any problems. Some of the older yamen runners also gossiped.

They said that Chen Yuan had become arrogant after killing an Unborn Teachings demon, thinking he was some kind of divine constable?

A mere rookie constable who had been on the job for just over a year dared to make such wild claims.

After waiting until late at night at home, Chen Yuan went out of Ping An County alone. He wanted to see if there was anything strange about the Liu family's ancestral graves.

Why would Head Constable Huang Xing be so displeased?

And just as Chen Yuan left the city that day.

Inside the Huang family's study.

Huang Shengnian, the head of the Huang family, and Head Constable Huang Xing were also discussing Chen Yuan.

Huang Xing looked gloomy and said in a low voice:

"One of my yamen runners has noticed something."

"A yamen runner?" Huang Shengnian frowned.

Normally, a small yamen runner wouldn't catch his eye.

"He deduced that the perpetrator had a limp. Fortunately, Seventh Brother has never shown himself, otherwise, our Huang family would be in danger..." A murderous intent appeared in Huang Xing's eyes.

"A small yamen runner, just find a way to kill him..." Hearing Huang Xing say this, Huang Shengnian's expression also tightened. If anyone noticed that the Huang family was colluding with the Unborn Teachings,

then the Huang family would be in danger, and no one could protect them.

"Not only that, but that yamen runner also wanted to go to the Liu family's ancestral graves to investigate, but I stopped him at the time..." Huang Xing continued.

Huang Shengnian stood up instantly:

"Wouldn't stopping him make him suspect us?"

"Don't worry, Brother, I have already ordered people to restore the Liu family's ancestral graves to their original state today, just for him to see. In any case, the Huang family cannot be exposed in the slightest."

"This yamen runner knows too much. Even if he hasn't associated it with our Huang family, he can't be allowed to live!" Huang Shengnian slammed the table in front of him, his eyes sharp.

The Huang family had been working for the Unborn Teachings for many years, and the reason why nothing had happened was because of caution.

For example, when the Huang family learned that the Liu family wanted to move their graves, they immediately sent people to exterminate the Liu family, just to avoid any possibility of exposure.

He didn't expect that a yamen runner would still deduce some information.

His only regret now was sending Seventh Brother out, who dared to use the Unborn Teachings' secret techniques to extract essence and blood in the county town, enraging the County Commandant and County Magistrate.

"Don't worry, Brother, after this matter subsides, this kid will definitely die!" Huang Xing said in a low voice.

He didn't know how many yamen runners in the county office had died at his hands. A mere skin-refining realm yamen runner was not worth his attention at all.

"Let the Four Seas Gang take action. The Huang family can't do it. The superiors have already sent word that experts from the Prefecture City's Sky Patrol Division are preparing to investigate the entire territory."

"The Huang family must not be exposed..."

Huang Shengnian exhaled a breath of stale air.

"Okay..."

......

......

Liu family's ancestral graves.

Chen Yuan frowned and examined it again, even digging out the coffins inside and opening them to take a look, but he didn't find anything unusual at all.

Chen Yuan thought, could he be overthinking things?

Was the Liu family's extermination unrelated to moving the graves?

It shouldn't be. You should know that murder cases are usually related to each other, and the only major event in the Liu family recently was moving the graves.

Could it be that a few Unborn Teachings demons suddenly got interested and then went on a killing spree in the county town, exterminating the Liu family?

Impossible,

there wouldn't be such a coincidence.

The Unborn Teachings demons' matter had just subsided, and they couldn't wait to come out and cause trouble. If they were really that mindless, the Unborn Teachings wouldn't give the imperial court such a headache!

But, no matter how Chen Yuan investigated, he didn't find anything unusual. However, Chen Yuan didn't feel like he had come for nothing. He had a premonition in his heart that the Huang family was not that simple...

After searching, Chen Yuan restored the mausoleum to its original state and quietly returned to the county town. What he didn't know was that someone had been watching his trip to the Liu family's ancestral graves.

After telling Huang Xing about Chen Yuan's late-night trip to the Liu family's ancestral graves, the murderous intent in Huang Xing's eyes could no longer be suppressed. Chen Yuan had indeed gone to investigate himself.

Coupled with the head of the family's instructions, Huang Xing had already decided to kill Chen Yuan, but now was not the right time to do it. At least wait two days for things to calm down. Who knew if Chen Yuan had left any backup plans?

If he died so quickly, it would definitely arouse suspicion.

Huang Xing recalled Chen Yuan and felt that he had underestimated him before. He didn't expect him to be so meticulous.

This child must not be allowed to live!

This was Huang Xing's thought at the moment. No matter how many thoughts a small yamen runner had, he couldn't make any waves. Just kill him, and everything would return to peace!

At the same time that Chen Yuan had murderous intent towards the Huang family, the Huang family also had murderous intent towards Chen Yuan!
