Chapter 2279 - 2280: He Who Kills Must Die

Long Xiaoshuai, Fan Yi, and the Three Swords were all momentarily stunned.

How did this matter get entangled with the Kunlun Sect?

The Kunlun Sect ranks first among the Five Great Immortal Sects in the cultivation world, and is an even more formidable force than the Mount Longhu Celestial Master Sect.

Yang Fei had traversed the cultivation world, yet the Kunlun Sect always maintained an observing stance, with the demeanor of a reclusive great sect.

If this matter is indeed connected to the Kunlun Sect, with Yang Fei's disposition, it won't remain a small issue.

The Three Swords, being a steady character, looked at Yang Fei and asked.

"What, do these three Demonic Path monsters have something to do with the Kunlun Sect?"

Yang Fei snorted.

"When I was refining their divine thought earlier, I discovered something new within their divine thought."

"This matter also involves the Junior Sect Leader of the Kunlun Sect, Li Yuqing, and is likely related to a Demonic Path magical treasure."

Long Xiaoshuai's teeth grated as he let out a cold snort.

"Two small towns, so many innocent lives lost tragically, this blood debt must be repaid with blood."

Yang Fei nodded.

After the revival of spiritual energy, many cultivators suddenly acquired great power, revealing the most evil side of humanity.

Many cultivators, in their pursuit of power, completely disregard the lives of ordinary people, and Li Yuqing is one of them.

The Three Swords quietly looked at Yang Fei. Although their gaze carried worry, they spoke without hesitation.

"Chief Instructor, give the order."

Yang Fei nodded and loudly proclaimed.

"Immediately apprehend Li Yuqing and bring him to justice. If he resists, kill without mercy."

The Dragon Group's arrest warrant quickly spread across the cultivation world, causing a great uproar.

Among the Five Great Immortal Sects, the Xuantian Sect is the weakest, while the Kunlun Sect is the most formidable.

The Kunlun Sect, ranking first among the Five Great Immortal Sects, has a profoundly deep foundation, far surpassing even the Mount Longhu Celestial Master Sect.

Most terrifying is that the Supreme Head of Kunlun Mountain, Qiankun Zi, is said to have reached the peak of the Golden Core stage, just one step away from the Spirit Transformation Realm.

In today's earth cultivation world, Qiankun Zi's cultivation is nearly at the pinnacle.

Under Qiankun Zi, there are five great True Persons.

Among them, the Sect Master True Man Daoxuanzi has reached the early Golden Core stage, and the remaining four true persons are all at the half-step Golden Core, peak Foundation Establishment stage.

It can be said that many would rather provoke the other four Great Immortal Sects than dare to provoke the Kunlun Sect.

The Kunlun Sect, though just one sect, is nearly able to suppress the combined strength of the other four Great Immortal Sects.

Once this arrest warrant was issued, even Wu Yuanzhong immediately called Yang Fei, advising him to think twice.

The Kunlun Sect not only holds tremendous power but also wields unparalleled influence among many prominent families in the Capital City.

Li Yuqing is Daoxuanzi's son and serves as a professor of National Arts at Huaqing University.

It is said that he is engaged to the granddaughter of a prominent family's third generation in the Capital City.

Li Yuqing's reputation and capability are on par with Susu, making him a renowned master of National Arts, with no prior misconduct.

Now, with just Yang Fei's word, seeking to apprehend this person places a great strain on Wu Yuanzhong.

However, Yang Fei only said one thing: killers must die!

At the Hidden Dragon Headquarters office, Wu Yuanzhong slammed the phone down, and the fiery-tempered old general cursed angrily.

"Damn it, these little bastards, not a single one is easy to deal with, and now Li Yuqing is no easy target either?"

"That kid's Ancestral Master has even been personally received by central leaders, isn't this just painting a target on me?"

Wu Yuanzhong's political commissar looked at him with amusement.

"If you don't want to stir up this hornet's nest, just give the order. Would Yang Fei really defy a military command?"

Wu Yuanzhong immediately stood tall, rolling his eyes.

"Yang Fei has already made his move; should I pull him back when he's in the thick of it? No matter how difficult, let's first capture that Li Yuqing kid."

The political commissar's smile widened.

"Just arresting someone over Yang Fei's word means, what if Yang Fei got it wrong; then what?"

Wu Yuanzhong put on a serious face.

"This kid has worked under me for so many years, never wrongfully accusing anyone."

"This time, with his apprehending of Li Yuqing, I believe he has certainly uncovered evidence of his crime."

"The battles between cultivators involve supernatural powers, finding evidence is not easy. By then, the opportunity would have passed."

The old general waved his hand decisively.

"Let it be settled this way. Any consequences, I'll take the blame. Taking the fall for that Yang Fei kid doesn't disgrace me."

At Huaqing University, inside lecture hall 13 in building A, block 13.

The lecture hall was filled with students listening attentively, holding their handouts and taking notes.

On the podium stood a refined and elegant man lecturing.

He wore black-framed glasses, his hair neatly combed, exacting and untidy, his voice even, with a warm smile.

This man was Li Yuqing.

As a nationally renowned professor of National Arts, his demeanor showed no arrogance or aloofness, not even the lofty manner of a scholar.

In many people's hearts, Professor Li Yuqing was a contemporary gentleman, like a piece of warm jade.

Many students were drawn to him, especially many female students, with admiration in their eyes.

Today, Li Yuqing lectured on the graceful and solemn poetry of the Classic of Poetry, his smile warm, and his words full of appeal.

After the first class, many students applauded.

Many bold female students brought their notes forward for autographs.

Li Yuqing obliged, signing each one, and as his assistant gathered the lecture materials, he tucked them under his arm to leave.

Just as he turned a corner, a stern-faced, handsome figure approached him.

"Professor Li Yuqing, we are from the National Security Department, and we need to inquire about something with you."

Li Yuqing was slightly surprised, glancing at his Omega watch with slight regret.

"I'm sorry, I have a gathering with friends; can we reschedule?"

The handsome young man's expression turned cold.

"I'm sorry, but you must come with me."

Li Yuqing's face stiffened momentarily, looking at the handsome young man with some surprise.

"Sir, please show your credentials. I'm a representative, and even if I broke some laws, you have no right to arrest me."

The handsome young man flipped open a small identification book for Li Yuqing to see, coldly smiling.

"I didn't say we're arresting you; we simply wish to ask you some questions. As a citizen with conscious awareness, you should cooperate."

Li Yuqing sighed helplessly: "Alright then."

Ten minutes later, Li Yuqing found himself with the handsome young man at a bar outside the school.

In the bar's private booth, Yang Fei was leisurely sipping his drink, looking relaxed.

The handsome young man stepped forward to salute Yang Fei, speaking loudly.

"Report Chief Instructor, Major Fan Yi has brought the person."

Yang Fei nodded, gesturing for Fan Yi to sit down.

His eyes lightly observed Li Yuqing: "What would you like to drink, coffee or red wine?"
