He sprinted all the way.
Under the fast whip of the horse.
In the evening, Lin Qi and his subordinates arrived at Nanyang County City.
"Sir, should we start the investigation immediately?”
The subordinate asked as they temporarily settled down.
When Lin Qi heard that, he shook his head gently and said,"We've been on the road all day. We'll rest tonight and start the investigation tomorrow morning.”
Lin Qi was at the fourth tier of the great grandmaster realm. He still rode a horse and did not consume much energy.
On the contrary, his subordinates were not strong enough.
It was obvious that he had consumed a lot of energy and was lacking in mental energy.
Even if they were to immediately start an investigation, it would probably be twice the effort with half the results.
"You guys rest for the night. I'll go to the branch alone to see the situation.”
"Perhaps there will be some gains.”
Lin Qi smiled and dismissed his subordinates.
Then, he tidied up his clothes, put on the Fire Kylin Sword, and slowly walked out of his temporary residence.
When Lin Qi walked out of his residence.
Late night had arrived.
He raised his head and looked at the sky. It was already pitch-black.
The semi-circular moonlight moved under the thick clouds, faintly discernible.
The stars twinkled brightly.
Lin Qi stopped at the door.
He raised his head slightly and looked at the sky.
"The moon is half round and the stars are shining. What a good night.”
He moved his throat and murmured softly.
After that, he lowered his head and moved quickly toward the branch.
The Nanyang County branch of the Black Ice Platform was set up in a remote location outside the county city.
Originally, it was a small courtyard.
There were a few buildings inside that were convenient for office and living.
When Lin Qi arrived, the gate had already become ruins.
The surrounding area was blocked by horizontal lines to prevent outsiders from approaching.
At the entrance, there were more than ten soldiers guarding it.
"Who is it?"
Someone approached in the middle of the night and immediately alerted the soldiers.
More than ten spears were waved in unison and pointed at Lin Qi.
Lin Qi slowly walked forward. With a move of his hand, the commander's token appeared.
"Black Ice Platform, Commander!"
Seeing the token that only belonged to the commander of the Black Ice Platform, the expression of the leader changed.
In the next moment, he immediately waved his hand, signaling his ten subordinates to put away their spears.
At the same time, he bowed slightly and said respectfully,""Greetings, Milord."
"Yes." Lin Qi nodded slightly and said,"Don't worry about me. I'll go in alone to take a look at the situation."”
"Yes, my lord." The soldiers and generals made way.
Seeing that, Lin Qi picked up his feet and slowly walked in.
He walked inside.
It was a mess.
There was still a lot of blood on the ground.
Seeing the blood on the ground, Lin Qi's eyes narrowed, and killing intent surged.
In the report, there was only one enemy.
Since the enemy had escaped unscathed, the bloodstains on the ground could only be from the Black Ice Platform.
The Black Ice Platform's Nanyang County branch suffered heavy losses from this attack.
The Zongshi realm 2-dan expert who was stationed there had died, along with dozens of members of the Black Ice Platform.
Although Lin Qi was a person who had transmigrated.
But now that he was the commander of the Black Ice Platform, he had a sense of belonging.
The members of the Black Ice Platform were all his subordinates.
Now that he saw the blood on the ground and his subordinates being slaughtered, his anger surged.
"Whoosh!"
At this moment.
A small sleeve arrow shot out of the night and went straight for Lin Qi's face.
The timing of the attack was just right when Lin Qi revealed his anger and his mood changed.
The timing of the assassination was very good.
Lin Qi was about to be shot in the face.
However, at the next moment.
"Clang!"
Lin Qi moved his right hand and pulled out the Fire Kylin Sword to block the assassination arrow.
"Who is it?"
At the same time, his eyes shone as he stared at a dark spot.
"Swoosh ~"
Seeing that the assassination attempt had failed, the figure in the darkness did not say anything. He flashed and fled quickly.
Seeing that, Lin Qi's eyes narrowed.
However, he didn't hesitate for more than a breath. He moved his body and chased after him.
Two figures, one fleeing and one chasing.
They were chasing after him at high speed in the remote areas of the outer city.
The strength of the person who escaped was only at Zongshi realm fifth stage.
However, he had a speed movement technique and was very familiar with the outer city area.
Therefore, even with Lin Qi's first-tier master cultivation, he could not catch up to this person in a short period of time.
A moment later.
The escapees had already arrived at the city wall.
With a leap, he leaped onto the high city wall.
Then, he dove down and escaped out of the city.
A breath later.
Lin Qi rushed over and jumped onto the high city wall.
Looking down, he saw the assassin who had already escaped from the city and stopped.
At this moment, the assassin turned around and pulled off the black cloth covering his face.
It was a very ordinary middle-aged man with a deep scar on his face.
At that moment, he looked at Lin Qi with a provocative gaze.
It was as if he was very disdainful that Lin Qi, a martial grandmaster, could not catch up to him, a fifth-tier grandmaster.
Seeing that, Lin Qi seemed to be angered by that gaze.
His expression turned cold and his face was filled with anger.
Then, he dived down and chased after her without hesitation.
The scarred man who stopped not far away saw this and a strange look flashed across his face.
Then, he quickly turned around and disappeared into the night before Lin Qi chased after him.
Previously, it was inside the city. Now, it was outside the city.
Two figures, one in front and one behind, one fleeing and one chasing.
Of course.
Because outside the city, there were forests and dense areas everywhere.
Hence, their speed was much slower.
Time flew by.
Soon, the time for an incense stick to burn had passed.
At that moment, Lin Qi's first-tier grandmaster speed had a lot of advantages.
He was about to catch up to the assassin.
Another ten breaths of time passed.
The distance between Lin Qi and the assassin was close enough.
Seeing that, Lin Qi's eyes lit up, and he rushed forward.
He sped up and caught up with the assassin.
At the same time, the Fire Kylin Sword in his hand slashed out fiercely.
Lin Qi's sudden acceleration seemed to have caught the assassin off guard. He was about to be killed by the long sword from behind.
However!
At this moment.
The Zongshi realm 5-dan assassin suddenly stopped and turned around with a strange smile on his face.
At the same time.
The aura on his body surged. Originally, he only had the aura of a fifth-tier grandmaster.
It began to change rapidly.
First level of the Great Grandmaster Realm, second level of the Great Grandmaster Realm, third level of the Great Grandmaster Realm, fourth level of the Great Grandmaster Realm.
In an instant, it directly rose to the fourth level of the great grandmaster realm.
Then, he waved his right hand, and a powerful force shot out.
"Bang!"
It collided with Lin Qi's Fire Kylin Sword and let out a rumbling sound.
The powerful force pushed Lin Qi back dozens of meters.
Then, he revealed a ferocious smile and his voice slowly sounded.
"It's almost done."
"With such a distance, the city guards shouldn't be able to make it in a short time.”
