Chapter 898: Chapter 412: Poison Greatly Weakened, Yang Meridian Advanced, Body Refined, Capturing the Savage!

Led by the Gold Appraisal Guard gold commander "Yu Hai", fifteen Gold Appraisal Guards were dispatched to capture him. This "Yu Hai" had a slight acquaintance with Li Xian. When Li Xian first joined Marquis Shop, he had a chance encounter with Yu Hai and followed behind him to learn the details of the Gold Appraisal Guards.

Upon seeing each other again at this moment, both felt a sense of novelty. Yu Hai did not expect Li Xian to truly become a Gold Appraisal Guard and work alongside him. After patting him on the shoulder and exchanging pleasantries, his demeanor became serious. He called for the Gold Appraisal Guards to wear plain clothes, prepare Horizontal Saber and inner armor, and get ready to apprehend the fugitive.

Yu Hai was usually easygoing, but when assembling his followers, he was extraordinarily imposing.

The "Gold Appraisal Guard’s" cavalry had to be on duty daily, mainly responsible for city defense and patrolling. The gold commander of the Gold Appraisal Guard possessed outstanding abilities and could handle matters independently.

Normally, no need to patrol, directly handling various major cases and events. If manpower is needed, cavalry within the Marquis Shop can be temporarily mobilized. Cavalry cannot refuse without significant matters.

A maximum of fifteen people can be mobilized at once. If manpower is still insufficient to resolve the issue, it is necessary to request an order in advance from Chao Leichong to expand manpower or seek help from other gold commanders.

Yu Hai had been tracking this fugitive for several days, the fugitive was exceedingly cunning, repeatedly evading capture. Today, intelligence was received, knowing the fugitive was hiding in "Huang Gu Street" within Tongji Square, in an inn called "Faiyuan Inn".

Thus immediately mobilize manpower to apprehend him.

As for the Gold Appraisal Guards, each mastered martial arts. They switched to plain clothes, executed lightweight skills, traversing rooftops, approaching "Faiyuan Inn" from several positions.

This was Li Xian’s first appointment for a special mission, naturally more cautious. Soon, he approached Faiyuan Inn from the southeast direction, hiding in a narrow alley. The distance to Faiyuan Inn was separated by a large street, totaling several dozen yards.

His gaze swept over, keen vision gradually glimpsing fellow Gold Appraisal Guards stationed around, already lurking from the several corners of southeast, west, and north, poised to move. Li Xian thought: "The Gold Appraisal Guards are indeed the Thirty-Two True Guards, inside, though there are family heirs sent for experience, they’ve not lost military vigor, regardless of background, those who can enter the Gold Appraisal Guards possess skills, and they’re not careless in their duties."

Seeing each other spread out like a net, intercepting key paths, they could respond to each other vaguely, if there was a situation, it could be promptly addressed.

Yu Hai was lying hidden on the blue tiles of a pavilion, this place high in elevation yet concealed, not easily discovered, overlooking Faiyuan Inn, observing the circumstances within the inn. He saw many people in the inn, if he barged in rashly, it would inevitably cause chaos, if the fugitive mingled with the crowd, triggering carnage, the casualties would be hard to estimate. Then his hand swiftly gestured, this was a special hand signal of the Gold Appraisal Guards, used for verbal communication.

People at the northeast, southwest, and north positions saw the signal, understood its meaning, nodded in response. Feigned as ordinary citizens, they approached Faiyuan Inn. As the inn’s shopkeeper was about to greet them, one person suddenly acted, employing the Gold Appraisal Guard’s basic martial arts ’Break Gold Finger’, intended to seize acupoints, swift and silent.

The shopkeeper had rudimentary exposure to martial arts, containing inner qi, gained over time, also possessed ’Qi Circulation’ accomplishment but was hard to resist. Instantly subdued, as he opened his mouth to speak, he found his words blocked in his throat, unable to voice. One Gold Appraisal Guard softly commanded, briefly explaining the reason, instructing the shopkeeper to cook a bowl of Longevity Noodles, adding a fainting toxin. Concurrently discreetly dispersing guests.

Upon seeing the shopkeeper nod in agreement, the Gold Appraisal Guard then released his sound-acupoint, proceeding to the kitchen, changing into a waiter’s attire. Once the Longevity Noodles were ready, the Gold Appraisal Guard delivered them to the third floor, reaching the Red List fugitive’s room.

Another two Gold Appraisal Guards waited nearby, prepared to respond at any moment.

The Gold Appraisal Guard delivering Longevity Noodles knocked on the door, feigning a waiter’s tone, casually fabricating a reason to lure the Red List fugitive to take the noodles. Just waiting for the fugitive to emerge, if he detected anything unusual, they would seize the initiative to capture him. If he didn’t detect any abnormalities, let him eat the poison noodles, during his fainting, effortlessly apprehending him.

That Red List fugitive was indeed an experienced and seasoned character.

Upon hearing noodles delivered for no reason, he immediately became alert, feigning a relaxed response, secretly lowering his body, listening to discern the situation. Vaguely hearing footsteps moving away, he knew the inn had been cleared, a flash of ferocity in his eyes. Silently approaching the side of the door, suddenly, he bent his fingers into a claw, his five fingers growing dense red velvet, the entire hand resembling both beast and human, extremely terrifying. He fiercely struck, directly shattering the entire door. With unstoppable force, he attacked the face of the Gold Appraisal Guard.

This was the "Red Velvet Killing Claw". The red velvet contained potent poison, where the claw swept, the red velvet spread like mist around. In narrow space, its power was quite remarkable, capable of achieving extraordinary effect!

The Gold Appraisal Guard delivering noodles frowned, yet not panicked, he tapped his toes on the ground, retreating three steps in succession. However, his retreating speed was far less than the claw’s striking speed. As he saw the unusual claw, it drew closer to his face, increasingly enlarging in his eyes. Moreover, he was in the corridor, after retreating a few steps, his back already hit the wall, leaving no route to retreat. At the critical moment, he poured the scalding Longevity Noodles forward. The noodles contained a potent toxin, and had just been drenched with hot oil, its power must not be underestimated.

But the Red List fugitive didn’t retreat, instead advanced, another hand struck, a sleeve flicked, sending the hot soup afar, simultaneously stepping forward, determined to twist the enemy’s head with a claw. This person’s infamy known far and wide, named "Head Severing Hand · Huang Gui", originally a Yu Nan Dao Red List fugitive, long remained unsanctioned, increasingly arrogant. He came to Jade City for gambling.
