This was also one of the reasons for his overflowing anger.
As soon as he entered the Li family, his frenzied Divine Sense swept through the entire Li family, even diving dozens of meters underground to dig up all the clues.
Now, Han Yi’s range of Divine Sense release is eight kilometers. If there are obstacles, the range naturally decreases. If it goes underground, it is compressed to only a hundred meters.
However, this range of Divine Sense release was enough. The Li family’s compound was vast, but it was not more than four kilometers in depth.
When Han Yi’s Divine Sense swept through, he had already discovered a secret place. However, this also alarmed the two elders of the Li family.
Before the rescue, Han Yi didn’t mind killing a few people to vent his anger.
He rose into the air with Sword Control, moving at an extremely fast speed. In just three breaths of time, he landed on a rockery in the back courtyard of rhe Li family.
Next.
The Sword Tool whistled with a faint red color, carrying the Power of Fire, which blasted the rockery. An earth-shattering explosion followed, the shattered rockery revealing an entrance more than two meters wide.
Han Yi entered it.
In less than the time it took to burn a stick of incense, he carried a figure and flew out.
At this moment, there were already three figures standing on their flying artifacts in mid-air, their expressions solemn.
One of them was Yuan Fei, the celestial inspector whom Han Yi had met when he entered rhe city. Next to Yuan Fei, there was another cultivator wearing the same style of robes as him.
The third cultivator wore a different style of robe.
Han Yi forcefully suppressed his anger and said to Yuan Fei:
“Daoist Yuan, the place down there is a Fragrance Sect’s Elixir Farm. I ask the celestial inspectors to thoroughly investigate the truth and bring the Li family to justice.’1
Han Yi released the Human Immortal-level Immortal Boat and placed the rescued Zheng Hai on it.
At this moment, Zheng Hai had already fainted, and most importantly, after a quick scan with his Divine Sense, Han Yi discovered that Zheng Hai’s Middle Dantian, where spiritual power was stored, had almost withered, with only less than one percent of a normal Qi Refining Seventh Layer cultivator s power.
In his Sea of Consciousness Space, his Divine Soul was only reduced to a thin layer, on the verge of dissipation.
Beyond that, an aura of decay, as if his life was reaching its end, emanated from Zheng Hai.
His Spiritual Root, talent, Spirit Sea, Divine Soul, and even his lifespan had all been almost completely drained. If Han Yi hadn’t appeared, Zheng Hai wouldn’t have lasted a month.
However, at this moment.
A middle-aged man frowned and looked at Han Yi.
“How this matter stands still needs to be investigated. The two Li family elders died by your hands. When we arrived, you just came out of the Fragrance Sect’s Elixir Farm. You are even more suspicious.”
“Bind your spiritual power and surrender, or don’t blame me for being rude.”
Han Yi looked carefully at the middle-aged man. There was a flash of resentment in the man’s eyes, but Han Yi didn’t recognize him.
“Lord Chu, there might be a misunderstanding here. Daoist Han entered Jia Shan City early this morning to find the missing disciple of the Xuandan Sect He should have no suspicion in this matter,” Yuan Fei hesitated to say.
“Hmph, who’s to say he isn’t a missionary of the Fragrance Sect, using some means to establish the Elixir Farm in the Li family without being detected, and staged this scene to shift the blame onto the Li family and escape? ‘
“This matter involves rhe Fragrance Sect and falls under the jurisdiction of our Bandit-Catching Department. There’s no need for the celestial inspectors to intervene.”
A fierce glint flashed in the middle-aged man’s eyes.
Han Yi, who was more than ten meters away, frowned.
This cultivator was either involved with the Fragrance Sect or had a connection with the Li family, with the latter being more probable.
However.
Han Yi was no pushover. He took out a black token from his storage ring and injected his spiritual power into it. Suddenly, a ray of light rose up and condensed into a line of characters in mid-air.
“Four Orders Inspector, Han Yi.”
Han Yi looked at the middle-aged cultivator with hostility towards him, then glanced at Yuan Fei and the other celestial inspector beside him, his face turning serious.
“I am Han Yi, the Four Orders Inspector personally appointed by the Daqian Emperor and a disciple of the Heavenly Will Sect/’
“I have the authority and responsibility to investigate at my discretion.”
“Daoist Yuan, I suspect that this cultivator from the Bandit-Catching Department is involved in rhe establishment of the Fragrance Sect’s Elixir Farm in the Li family of Jia Shan City. He has been targeting me from rhe very beginning, and I have every reason to be suspicious.”
“As such, I propose that the Bandit-Catching Department should not intervene in this matter, and it should be properly investigated by rhe celestial inspectors.”
“Is that so? Is it possible?”
Han Yi looked at the middle-aged cultivator who had hostility towards him, and the fierceness in his eyes climbed.
The other party was just a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, and if it wasn’t for rhe fact that they were both under the Bandit-Catching Department of the Department of Punishment, Han Yi would have killed him with one sword long ago, without wasting so much breath talking.
As soon as Han Yi spoke, the trio present were all startled.
In the eyes of the middle-aged cultivator named Chu Xiong, a surge of anger erupted, and he shouted: “Audacious!”
While Yuan Fei’s expression was helpless.
T his Han Yi from Heavenly Will Sect was truly unpredictable. He was gentle and polite when he entered the city, but now he was extremely arrogant. Moreover, the other party was an inspector, who could be simply understood as a passing imperial envoy.
T his made things difficult.
“Want to die?” Han Yi’s fierce light was violent, climbing to the extreme. A black long sword had already appeared in front of him, as if he would make a move against the opponent and slash him if they dared to fight.
In any other situation, Han Yi would have temporarily avoided conflict and investigated thoroughly before making a move.
But not now.
Zheng Hai was injured, and the other party was still babbling. Han Yi not making a move already showed he had a good temper.
“Alright.”
“We re all on the same side, why must we act like this.”
A voice rang out, and a cultivator arrived by Sword Control.
“Greeting, Lord Gu.”
T he three of Yuan Fei respectfully bowed.
Seeing this, Han Yi put away his sword.
T he newcomer was a Foundation Building late stage cultivator, with a similar aura to Senior Brother Shen Ping.
“I am the deputy city lord of Jia Shan City, Gu Wu.”
“What exactly happened here?”
The middle-aged cultivator Chu Xiong was about to speak, bur Gu Wu stopped him: “Yuan Fei, you tell us.”
Yuan Fei answered, and went on to narrate the events from when he was on duty the previous day, without adding any personal judgment or twisting any facts.
Gu Wu nodded, and his divine sense fell into the hole below, his brows furrowing.
“Chu Xiong, you have close relations with the Li family, you must not intervene in this matter.”
“Yuan Fei, Cao Li, let the Heavenly Observatory handle this. First, save the cultivators in the Dan cultivating field below, then investigate the collusion between the Li family and Fragrance Sect.”
“In this way, are you satisfied, Daoist Han?”
The last sentence, Gu Wu looked at Han Yi, his gaze treating him as an equal.
Han Yi, from the Heavenly Will Sect, along with the title of Four Orders Inspector, was considered an ‘Imperial Envoy’ that was not bound by the existing system of the Immortal Country. There was no hierarchical relationship between the two parties.
“Thank you, Lord Gu.” Han Yi cupped his hands in thanks, agreeing that the other party’s handling was the most reasonable.
After making arrangements, Gu Wu left with Chu Xiong, rhe middle-aged cultivator.
Before leaving, Chu Xiong’s eyes flashed with killing intent, as his malevolent expression appeared for an instant when looking at Han Yi.
Han Yi narrowed his eyes, staring back without fear, and in the void, invisible murderous intent met head-on and dispersed.
After the two left,
Yuan Fei bowed to Han Yi: “I never thought that Daoist Han would be an inspector, please forgive me for my previous negligence/’
Han Yi replied: “Daoist Yuan, you’re too serious. I didn’t show my inspector token before, and you didn’t know. There was nothing improper in how you handled things.”
“Please investigate the Li family carefully, Daoist Yuan. By the way, the Great Elder of the Li family is in the late stage of Foundation Establishment, and as far as 1 know, he has been missing for many years. Please be careful when dealing with this.”
“My friend needs immediate treatment, please forgive me, Daoist Yuan.”
Han Yi cupped his hands in thanks, and then, using the Immortal Boat, rose into the sky, breaking through the flowing light and disappearing in an instant..
