When they arrived at the iron cable bridge, they dismounted, tied their horses to the iron stakes, and then crossed the bridge and crossed the river at full speed.

Seeing that their figures are light and their steps are brisk, even if they are not spiritual monks, they should be people with inner strength cultivation.

Ye Qingchen thought to himself, it was quite lively here today, with people leaving and coming again. I don’t know where these two people are from. As long as it doesn't prevent me from seizing the Earth Fire Cauldron, it has nothing to do with me.

I saw those two people going to Wuxia Village and pushing open the doors of every house, not knowing what they were looking for.

Then, the two went to the cemetery in the back mountain and stood in front of the grave without knowing what to say.

After staying for a while, one of them returned to the cottage and took a hoe and a shovel.

After returning to the cemetery, the man threw the shovel to another man, and he raised his hoe and started digging the grave.

"Fuck!" Ye Qingchen couldn't help but cursed, "Coming here to dig up someone's grave in broad daylight, isn't this too much?"

These villagers were killed by him, and he has always felt guilty. He even directly killed Jiang Jingwei's entire family and most of Liu Xuesheng's family because of this.

It was indeed a last resort to kill these villagers in the first place. I only wish these deceased people to rest in peace afterwards. Now that he saw someone digging a grave for no apparent reason, how could he just sit idly by and ignore it?

Without thinking too much, he immediately took off his concealment cloak and rode the wind down the mountain.

When he reached the foot of the mountain, he put on his cloak again, gathered his inner strength, and flew towards the cemetery.

When they got closer, Ye Qingchen could see clearly that they were a burly man in his fifties and a beautiful woman in her twenties. Neither of them were spiritual monks.

"Stop!" Ye Qingchen shouted.

Only then did the two men notice that someone was coming. They immediately dropped their hoes and shovels, put their hands on the hilts of their swords, leaned against each other warily, and glared at Ye Qingchen.

"Who are you?" the burly man asked.

"It doesn't matter who I am!" Ye Qingchen said coldly, "Why did you two do such a dirty thing of robbing someone's grave in broad daylight?"

The man's expression softened slightly, he picked up a small silver sign hanging on his waist and raised his hand to show it to Ye Qingchen.

Ye Qingchen saw wave patterns carved around the sign, and the word "hole" engraved in seal script in the center.

"Cave?" Ye Qingchen looked confused.

The young woman also showed her waist badge with the word "hole" and said proudly: "I am Lin Zhiruo, the insight envoy of Dachu. This is my master. The deputy head of the insight department opens the hole. The two of us are not tomb robbers, but We came here to find out the cause of death of the villagers.”

"Insight Envoy?" Ye Qingchen had never heard of this official position. But he can completely understand that this is not the earth after all, and it is normal for there to be many official positions that have never appeared in the history of the earth.

Lin Zhiruo saw that he was frozen in place and still refused to leave, so he shouted sternly: "The Insight Department is handling the case, and everyone who is idle should avoid it!"

Ye Qingchen raised his hands and raised his head with a slight disdain: "I don't care who you are or what your purpose is. In short, as long as I am here, no one can touch the tomb here."

"Bastard!" Lin Zhiruo didn't expect this young man to be so ungrateful. "Do you know the consequences of obstructing the Insight Department from handling the case?"

"What are the consequences?" Ye Qingchen showed no fear.

Lin Zhiruo was about to speak when she opened her mouth and winked to stop her.

"Young man, why do you want to stop us from digging the grave? Are you afraid that if we dig the grave, we will find some secret that you don't want others to know?"

The question that opened the hole hit the nail on the head.

Lin Zhiruo looked at him with admiration, and suddenly felt ashamed of her recklessness just now.

Ye Qingchen sneered and said: "These villagers died unjustly, which is already very pitiful. Now they are buried in peace. I just want them to get the respect they deserve."

"What is your relationship with these villagers? Why are you so concerned about them?" Kaidong looked at him suspiciously.

Ye Qingchen said: "I have nothing to do with them, and I can't say I care about them. But even if I pass by them occasionally, I will feel dissatisfied with you digging people's graves!"

Zhang Kaidong said helplessly: "Since you are unwilling to say anything, there is nothing we can do. In order to find out the truth, we will not miss any opportunity to find clues."

After that, he raised his hoe and continued digging.

Lin Zhiruo snorted coldly and started shoveling the soil.

The experienced Zhang Kaidong had already keenly realized that the young man in front of him should have a great relationship with the death of the villagers. Even if he is not the murderer, he must know something.

Otherwise, why would he suddenly appear here, and why would he stop digging the grave so strongly? Just out of pity for the dead? Nonsense!

It's just that he didn't push it to that point, so he remained tight-lipped.

Therefore, he wanted to force and stimulate the other party by pretending to continue digging graves. See how determined the other party's attitude is. The more determined the other party is, the more suspicious it becomes.

Ye Qingchen raised his brows, mobilized his internal strength, and grabbed forward with both hands.

Opening the hoe in Dong's hand, Lin Zhiruo's shovel flew out of his hand and flew into his hand.

"court death!"

Lin Zhiruo was furious. Since she joined the Insight Department, she has traveled extensively with her master and has seen a lot of the world. I have never encountered someone who blocked the investigation of a case so arrogantly.

She drew her sword in her hand and attacked Ye Qingchen directly.

The Insight Department handles cases, and if they encounter any obstruction by force, they have the right to kill them directly as long as they are not members of the royal family.

Lin Zhiruo had long disliked this person, but the master wanted to be polite first and then fight, so she tolerated it for the time being. Now that the other party dared to take action, she was no longer polite.

This time, opening the hole did not stop Lin Zhiruo.

He stood there with a calm expression on his face, as quiet as still water, as if he was waiting for a good show to unfold.

Ye Qingchen's spiritual power cultivation has reached the golden elixir realm, and his internal strength has accordingly been upgraded to the mysterious realm level. Naturally, he didn't look down on Lin Zhiruo, whose internal strength was only at the level of Dacheng.

However, he couldn't bear to attack such a beautiful woman directly. Otherwise, it may only take one move to kill him instantly.

He didn't even bother to draw his sword, but raised the scabbard to block.

This time, he used the "Breaking Sword Style" in the "Dugu Nine Swords", a mortal martial art he had learned in his previous life. To use the Dugu Nine Swords, you don't even need to use internal force. Just use simple moves to deftly neutralize the opponent's strength.

Although the body skills and movements of a true warrior are extremely fast, in front of Ye Qingchen's consciousness, it is like slow motion in a movie on Earth.

He has enough time to react and neutralize his moves one by one.

After the exchange of moves, Lin Zhiruo was secretly proud of how this person dared to be so arrogant without even having any internal strength.

After the second confrontation, Lin Zhiruo was even more secretly amused. Unexpectedly, not only did he have no internal strength, but his movements were also so simple and clumsy, without any structure. It seemed that he had not even practiced any martial arts moves. This girl hasn't had a fight in a long time. I finally caught a softie today and I need to give it a good squeeze.

After three moves, Lin Zhiruo felt something was wrong. what happened? With such a quick movement, I couldn't even touch his body with three moves in a row?

Lin Zhiruo didn't dare to underestimate the enemy anymore. She clenched her silver teeth tightly and used her strength, speed and moves to their limits.

She yelled, jumped up, and feinted with a sword sweep, then suddenly changed her moves, holding the sword with both hands, and using the strength of her body to jump forward, she used all her strength to chop down the head.

But he saw Ye Qingchen standing there, calm and unhurried, with a smirk on his lips.

He knew that his opponent's sword was extremely powerful. If he didn't inject internal energy into the sword and directly fight it, the Dragon Sword might be cut into two pieces.

Just when the sword's edge was less than three inches above his head, his body twisted like a ghost and sidestepped at an extremely fast speed.

At the same time, he struck out with his right palm, just hitting Lin Zhiruo's chest.

Lin Zhiruo missed a hit and was hit in the chest instead, flying more than ten feet away.

She covered her chest, ashamed and angry.

The place that had been protected for so many years and had never been touched by a man was unexpectedly touched by this evil thief without any reason!
