C29 Join the Hall of Law's First Mission
A day had passed. Su Yuan had spent a day looking through all the places he could go to the Taixuan Sect, but he didn't see Su Yun or the lady in green.
After that, he could only put this thought in his heart and return to his cave.
Not long after he returned, a palm-sized colorful bird flew into his cave and hovered in front of him.
It was a spirit bird that was completely formed by the Spiritual Sense. It was a common method to transmit messages between Spirit Gathering Stage cultivator.
Su Yuan extended his Spiritual Sense and received a message from Xiao Rann.
"There's a mission, come quickly!"
As expected of the Law Enforcement Hall. They had just joined for a day and they already had a mission to complete! A trace of joy flashed across Su Yuan's eyes, and he quickly headed towards the Law Enforcement Hall.
When he saw Su Yuan, Xiao Rann smiled and asked, "Do you want to participate in the battle?"
Su Yuan replied with a grin, "Of course!"
He looked to the side. Besides him and Xiao Rann, there were two other people here. They were two of the three people who interrogated him earlier.
Xiao Rann introduced them. "Cheng Ming, Liu Yi, you have seen each other before. This mission will be carried out by the three of you. Cheng Ming, tell Su Yuan about the mission details."
Cheng Ming cupped his fists at Su Yuan with a smile and said seriously.
"According to Senior Brother Xiao's instructions, Liu Yi and I have carefully investigated Han Shui's life and found some clues."
"This Han Shui is indeed a bit pitiful. He is the younger brother of Senior Sister Han Wu. The two of them had no parents, and since they were young, they had to rely on each other. The turning point of their fate was that when Senior Sister Han was 13 years old, she was discovered by Elder Qin of the Law Enforcement Hall and brought to Taixuan Mountain by her cultivation talent. However, Han Shui did not have outstanding talent in cultivation like Senior Sister Han, even if he received all the help from Senior Sister Han. After so many years, he only managed to cultivate to the first level of the Spirit Gathering Realm, because this was mocked by many disciples of the same stage."
" According to the information provided by Junior Brother Su Yuan, we have come to a preliminary conclusion that this is the reason why Han Shui colluded with the Soul Capturing Organization. After all, Soul Capturing Techniques mostly rely on external objects to unleash their combat strength, which is exactly what Han Shui needs. After that, we have investigated most of the people who have been in contact with Han Shui in the past few years and found a big fish by following the clues. "
When Cheng Ming said this, his eyes lit up.
"A core member of the Soul Capturing Organization, who is at the Spirit Gathering Level Four, has been hiding inside Taixuan Mountain during this period of time. Besides that, she also has accomplices. After we confirmed this, we immediately came to report to Brother Xiao!"
"You have done very well!"
Xiao Rann glanced at them and said, "There is no time to lose. We will go and capture that person and his accomplices now. This operation will not be allowed to fail. We cannot let the Soul Capturing Organization continue to be so unscrupulous in the Taixuan Sect!"
"Yes!"
Su Yuan and the other two men shouted in unison.
...
An hour later, in a remote mountain range in the Taixuan Sect, outside a simple thatched cottage, Xiao Rann and Su Yuan arrived.
After signalling Su Yuan and the other two to spread out and surround the thatched cottage, Xiao Rann showed himself. He stretched out his hand and formed a hand seal. He muttered something under his breath and pointed at the sky.
"Thunder Subduing Art!"
With a loud crack, a lightning bolt as thick as a thigh suddenly appeared in the daytime and smashed onto the thatched cottage's roof at an extremely fast speed.
The tiny thatched cottage could not withstand the power of the lightning at all. In the blink of an eye, it shattered with a loud bang, and two figures rushed out from within.
The one in front was a female cultivator with a gentle face. Judging from the strength she displayed, she was the core member of the Soul Capturing Organization that Cheng Ming had mentioned.
The one following behind her was a young male cultivator wearing the black uniform of the Taixuan Sect.
Besides Han Shui, this core member of the Soul Capturing Organization had indeed colluded with other disciples of the Taixuan Sect!
When they saw Xiao Rann, both of their faces changed. Without hesitation, they ran in another direction.2
Obviously, they understood that their identities had been exposed, and didn't harbor any hopes of getting lucky.
It was just that Su Yuan and the others had long been prepared and did not give them a chance to escape.
In just an instant, three fireballs that had been waiting for a long time shot towards the two figures from three different directions at the same time, blocking all the paths that they had to cross.
The woman frowned slightly, and with a swing of her sleeve, she easily dispersed the three fireballs.
But this inevitably delayed her escape time. Xiao Rann caught up from behind and sent another bolt of lightning towards the woman.
The woman snorted lightly. Seeing that it was not easy to escape, she decided not to run anymore and fought with Xiao Rann.
The young man behind her gritted his teeth and was about to step forward to help the girl when Su Yuan and the other two men appeared and surrounded him. Cheng Ming shouted loudly.
"You have already been surrounded. If you know what's good for you, then surrender. We might be able to spare your life. If you dare to resist, we will kill you on the spot!"
However, not only did the young man not give in, he also became even more furious.
His aura was released from his body, and the degree he displayed was slightly higher than Su Yuan and the other two. It was shockingly at the second level of the Spirit Gathering Realm.
Su Yuan was even more excited about this. He didn't even choose to cooperate with Cheng Ming and Liu Yi. He took the lead and rushed towards the young man. At the same time, he formed a fireball the size of a human head with his hand.
Cheng and Liu were stunned for a moment. They didn't follow Su Yuan's movements in time, but the young man opposite them reacted in an instant. In the next moment, a silver-white lightning as thick as a finger smashed towards Su Yuan.
Although he was using the Spiritual Skill as a backup, it was because of his own strength, the degree of control he had over the Spiritual Skill, and the characteristics of the Spiritual Skill itself. The young man's Thunder Shocking Technique accurately hit the fireball even earlier than Su Yuan's Flame Burst Arts.
With a loud bang, the power of the fireball and the power of lightning clashed. In the end, the power of lightning still had the upper hand. After exhausting all the power of the fireball, the remaining power entered Su Yuan's body.
Su Yuan's body immediately froze halfway. The young man opposite him naturally did not miss this opportunity. He casted another Flame Burst Arts and a head-sized fireball flew towards Su Yuan.
But at this moment, Cheng Ming and Liu Yi finally reacted. The two of them, one on the left and one on the right, launched two lightning strikes at the young man at the same time, forcing the young man to give up on this attack.
After Su Yuan regained his freedom, he immediately stretched out his hand and formed a strange spell. After chanting a few words, he pointed at the young man and shouted.
"Freeze!"
A strange power flew out and locked down the young man and the space around him. At the same time, Cheng Liu and the other man also unleashed their Flame Burst Arts. When the young man regained his freedom, in front of him were two fireballs that were almost a foot away from him.
"Boom! Boom!"
Two explosions sounded at almost the same time. The young man was unable to dodge in time and was directly blown up. Immediately, he spat out a large mouthful of blood. He had already suffered quite a serious injury.
Despite this, he didn't lose his combat strength. In the next moment, he looked at Su Yuan with extremely strong killing intent.
