Loyal Heart Roaming the Skies

Why did two cultivators from the Criminal Investigation Department appear here, and why did they bring so many wild beasts in cages? Their purpose seems to be no longer in need of speculation.

Jiang Wang looked at the other unopened animal cage and felt the urge to smash it.

In the battle on Yuheng Peak, how many cultivators died, how many sacrifices were made, it was all vivid in his mind.

It turned out that the appearance of ferocious beasts was not a natural disaster, but man-made!

So, what is the meaning of all the struggles, sacrifices, the senior brother who boasted before his death, the lord of the city who stood on the top of the pen peak and peeled off the skin of the killer rock bee, and the woman who severed her path and broke the five mansions in a row?

"Don't move." Bai Lian gently touched Jiang Wang's shoulder, feeling his body trembling uncontrollably, and said softly, "This time I really cast an illusion."

In the valley, the transformation from wild beasts to ferocious beasts finally completed. Due to their cruel nature, many ferocious beasts immediately fought each other, and there were constant roars and flying flesh and blood.

"Why are there so few wild beasts?"

With this dissatisfied voice, a cultivator in the Criminal Investigation Department's robe stepped on nothingness and came over.

Jiang Wang instinctively held his breath. Stepping on emptiness and flying, he must have the cultivation level of the Soaring Dragon Realm at least!

This person was not satisfied with something, but did not pursue anything. He stopped in mid-air above the valley, pinched his fingers, and a mountain wall rumbled and moved away, revealing a wide canyon.

From Jiang Wang's perspective, he could not see the connection behind the canyon.

At this time, the Criminal Investigation Department cultivator changed his hand seal again, and Jiang Wang noticed that there were faint red patterns flashing and disappearing on the valley floor within his line of sight. But regarding these patterns and formations, the City Taoist Academy only taught some basic knowledge. He couldn't recognize what these patterns represented.

But those newly "born" ferocious beasts stopped fighting. As if being manipulated, they all rushed into the canyon.

Where will these ferocious beasts go? Which village, which town? How much food will they destroy and how many innocent people will they eat?

At this thought, Jiang Wang couldn't help but feel murderous.

This was the first time he had developed a killing intent towards the people of the Criminal Investigation Department, towards the cultivators who represented the Zhuangting to a certain extent.

It should be noted that for the disciples of the Taoist Academy, the Ministry of War and the Criminal Investigation Department...these places were one of their future destinations.

Admittedly, after achieving success in cultivation, entering the Zhuangting directly and receiving official titles was the highest pursuit. But there were also many people who discovered a more suitable path for themselves during cultivation, and there were still many people who dreamed of joining the Criminal Investigation Department since childhood.

That was an important transcendent force for investigating and punishing crimes and maintaining the stability of the Zhuang Kingdom.

So what were the Criminal Investigation Department cultivators on Yuheng Peak doing?"He can't be killed." Bai Lian sensed something and immediately said, "If anyone dies here, the other side will immediately receive the news. The reason why the setup here is not strict is because the lives of these people themselves are the best warning. And the strong one responsible for this matter has supernatural powers that can span thousands of miles. Once he is alarmed, he will appear here in an instant. At that time, even I won't be able to escape."

Jiang Wang couldn't help but smile bitterly. How could he have the ability to kill a strong person with at least Soaring Dragon Realm cultivation?

However, he figured it out. Bai Lian didn't kill the two inspectors outside the cave before, was it because she cared about his thoughts? Clearly, she was afraid.

At this time, the strong of the Inspectorate had already left, and the canyon behind them was rumbling and closing.

"What's behind the canyon?" Jiang Wang asked.

"I can't take you there." Bai Lian shook her head. "That place is not like here. There is a real big formation set up there, and even I dare not go deep. At most, I can only tell you my guess."

"What's your guess?"

"You should know that the main material for the Open Meridian Pill is the Dao Meridian of the demon beasts. But have you ever thought about it? There are more than billions of human beings in the vassal states. How great is the demand for the Open Meridian Pill? If those demon beasts are killed off, can they still reproduce? I guess that the reason why the demon beasts can continue to exist is closely related to these ferocious beasts."

This guess is likely to be true, especially since those ferocious beasts are right in front of them, transforming from wild beasts to demon beasts with innate Dao Meridians through some unknown means. After all, some special ferocious beasts can use spells. Apart from lacking intelligence, they are no different from demon beasts.

If this is true, then in a sense, Yuheng Peak is one of the resource bases of the Inspectorate and the guarantee for the development of the Zhou Kingdom. It is also the source of Open Meridian Pills needed for the cultivation of disciples of the Daoist sects like Jiang Wang and Ling Hu.

But...

What about the ordinary people who died in front of the ferocious beasts?

What about those who fought against the ferocious beasts to protect the common people until death?

What about those who were kept in the dark, including him, Jiang Wang?

What does it all mean?

"If that's the case, why hide it from everyone? Why watch the cultivators from various city regions continuously sacrifice their lives?" Jiang Wang's voice was heavy, and his worldview was greatly impacted."You must know that all domesticated monsters will lose their innate Dao veins in the next generation." It seemed that Bai Lian was not very sure either, she said thoughtfully: "I think, wildness is an essential element for monsters, and killing is a necessary process. There is some hidden secret in this that I don't know, but it determines this outcome. So this matter must not be widely known, but only in the hands of a few people, because no one would be willing to die meaninglessly."

Her eyes turned mocking: "Or, when you become a high-ranking official in Xin'an City, you can ask Zhuang Gaoxian in person?"

When you become a high-ranking official, go ask the lord of Zhuang Kingdom.

This sentence was just an ordinary joke.

But it was an especially frightening one for Jiang Wang.

He had not failed to imagine what he would do in the future after knowing about this matter. He firmly believed that no matter what the reason behind the cultivation of these ferocious beasts, he would stand in front of the innocent people who had died and put an end to such things.

But Bai Lian's question made him think:

Many of the big figures in Xin'an City had cultivated step by step from various major cities. They must have experienced or felt the pain of being ravaged by fierce beasts. Among them, there must be some people who had harbored the ideals of protecting the territory and the people since childhood, and had the ambition to save the world.

However, nothing had changed.

More than three hundred years since the founding of Zhuang Kingdom, all information about the ferocious beasts was still kept from the vast majority of people.

All the young people who had once been determined to change the world had been changed by the world in the end!

And it was not just Zhuang Kingdom that was like this. Yong Kingdom was the same, and so was the whole world!

Wasn't this terrifying?

How frightening!

...

"So, do you want to destroy this place?"

Bai Lian deliberately leaned into his ear and said with a breath like an orchid: "On one side is the Zhuang Court you will serve in the future, and countless Opening Vein Pills. On the other side are the poor common people of the Three Mountains Region, well, it doesn't seem to have much value..."

Jiang Wang interrupted her: "I want to."

At this moment, he didn't let his brain think, but handed the decision to his instinct. To the deepest part of human nature, the most unavoidable kindness and compassion.

Bai Lian looked at him for a while and said, "This is the first thing I want you to do."
