Chapter 109: Unexpected Harvest

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Yang Hong stepped through the wooden door that Zhou Shu had kicked to pieces, just in time to see a figure fly out.

With a bang, countless wooden barrels were knocked to the ground.

A strong smell wafted over, and Yang Hong nearly vomited.

“Zhou…” Yang Hong said subconsciously. Only now did he see that Zhou Shu was standing not far away from him, and the figure that flew out was a man so ordinary-looking that he couldn’t be found in a crowd.

But this man was extremely unique. He was covered in yellow filth, and his entire body emitted a foul stench. Not to mention in a crowd, people would probably be able to recognize him even from ten miles away.

Zhou Shu covered his nose as he cursed in his heart.

F*ck, it’s a miss.

Had I known, I wouldn’t have kicked.

Who knew that this fellow had such a fetish and actually placed so many barrels of human waste in his courtyard…

But then again, after he thought about this person’s disguise, it didn’t seem strange anymore…

From the words of the traitors of the 0th Workshop, Zhou Shu knew that the person who had bribed them was not some high and mighty figure, but the one in front of him, a man who disposed of excrement!

The excrement in the Forging Division’s workshops was all taken care of by this person, so he could enter and leave the workshops freely.

Moreover, he wouldn’t be subjected to strict inspections when he went in and out of the workshops. After all, who would want to check buckets of excrement?

This was the only way he could bring the Autumn Anatidae Plume Saber out of the Forging Division’s workshops without anyone knowing.

Otherwise, with Zhu Chuanfeng’s status, it would be easy for him to take a standard weapon from a workshop, but it would be difficult for others not to know.

“Superintendent Zhou, is he the traitor you mentioned?” Yang Hong came back to life. If he had known earlier that the traitor was someone who disposed of excrement, he wouldn’t need to worry.

He could fight a hundred such people with one hand!

Boom!

Before Zhou Shu could reply, he heard an explosion. The person who had fallen to the ground had already leaped up. He actually released an aura belonging to a martial artist and pounced toward Yang Hong.

“I—” Yang Hong felt so helpless and angry that he didn’t know what to say.

d.a.m.n, a ranked martial artist disposes of excrement for others?

That’s one thing, but a disguise?

Moreover, you were kicked to the ground by Superintendent Zhou?

Aren’t you acting too well?

Then continue acting. Why do you look at me as if I killed your father? Are you coming for me?

Just as this person exploded, Zhou Shu had already left the courtyard with a whoosh.

This person charged at Yang Hong, completely ignoring Zhou Shu. To him, the person wearing the Divine Constable Bureau uniform was the greatest threat.

Yang Hong cursed in his heart. He wasn’t afraid of a ranked martial artist. He was also a ranked martial artist. Moreover, he had spent several years to reach this stage and had acc.u.mulated a lot of experience during these years. Even though he had just become a ninth-rank martial artist, he wasn’t afraid of fighting another ninth-rank martial artist.

But the problem was that this guy was covered in excrement. It wasn’t easy to deal with him.

Zhou Shu pinched his nose. When he heard the endless banging sounds in the courtyard, he couldn’t bear to look inside.

He wasn’t worried about Yang Hong’s safety. The traitor’s cultivation wasn’t high. Yang Hong was a divine constable of the Divine Constable Bureau, and His cultivation wasn’t bad. Even if he wasn’t a match for him, his life wouldn’t be in danger.

At most, if Yang Hong really lost, he would secretly attack.

He only felt some pity for Yang Hong. Regardless of the outcome, Yang Hong couldn’t avoid getting s.h.i.+t all over himself.

This was worse than being seriously injured.

Zhou Shu looked around him. There were many curious gazes, but no one dared to approach.

Hearing that the Divine Constable Bureau was here to handle a case had some effect on keeping some people away.

When he kicked the door open earlier, the other party had been caught off guard and had tried to avoid exposing his cultivation. Zhou Shu hadn’t used his cultivation to kick the door open.

Later, when he saw Yang Hong, the traitor felt that the matter was exposed and immediately exploded.

While Zhou Shu pondered, the commotion in the courtyard had subsided.

Zhou Shu was still pinching his nose. He peeked his head out and saw that the battle in the courtyard had ended.

Yang Hong’s expression was distorted. He placed one foot on the traitor’s chest and was still cursing.

The uniform he wore was already stained with yellow excrement, making people not want to look at it anymore.

Zhou Shu carefully stepped over the threshold and found a place to stand.

“Divine Constable Yang is mighty!” Zhou Shu raised his thumb.

Yang Hong’s face darkened. Mighty my a.s.s!

My first battle after entering the ranks is stained with s.h.i.+t. Luckily, my colleagues didn’t see me. Otherwise, wouldn’t I become the Divine Constable Bureau’s laughing stock?

“Superintendent Zhou, can I trouble you to get some water?” Yang Hong didn’t even dare to bring him back to the Divine Constable Bureau now!

If he appeared in public like this, he would probably become the most famous person in the capital tomorrow.

Zhou Shu held back his laughter and tiptoed to the water vat in the courtyard.

The water vat didn’t have a lid, and some excrement had splashed in. But no matter what, it was better than nothing.

Zhou Shu lifted a wooden bucket and directly splashed water on Yang Hong.

Swis.h.!.+

As the yellow sewage flowed down, the smell became even stronger.

Yang Hong was on the brink of tears. What the heck is this!

The more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt. He lifted his leg and kicked the traitor hard.

The traitor groaned and glared at Yang Hong angrily.

“You still dare to look at me like that?” Yang Hong was furious. “Let me tell you. After falling into the hands of the Divine Constable Bureau, you’re dead!”

That traitor snorted coldly and clenched his teeth without saying a word.

Swis.h.!.+

Another bucket of water splashed over. Yang Hong quickly shut his mouth. He was afraid that the water would flow into his mouth…

After splas.h.i.+ng the entire vat of water, although Yang Hong’s body was still emitting an unpleasant stench, it was finally slightly better than before.

“Superintendent Zhou, we’ve already caught him. There’s no time to lose. I’ll immediately bring him back to the Divine Constable Bureau for interrogation!” Yang Hong looked at Zhou Shu. “Superintendent Zhou, why don’t you return to the Forging Division first?”

Yang Hong really didn’t want to serve this master anymore. Every time he met him, nothing good would happen.

Speaking of this time, it was clearly considered a meritorious service. Why did his first battle become like this?

“Don’t worry about me. Take him back.” Zhou Shu waved his hand. “We have to get him to confess. There might be other people in the Forging Division who have been instigated by him!”

The traitor that Yang Hong was stepping on suddenly gritted his teeth and said, “Dream on!”

Then black blood flowed down from the corner of his mouth. His head tilted to the side, and he was no longer breathing.

“You…” Yang Hong’s expression changed, and he hurriedly squatted down.

He pinched the traitor’s cheek and said in a low voice, “There’s poison in his mouth!”

“He’s dead?”

“Dead!”

The two of them looked at each other and saw the disappointment in each other’s eyes.

It wasn’t easy for them to capture the other party. But due to a moment of carelessness, the other party actually died!

Once this person died, there would be no more clues.

If he had known this would happen, Zhou Shu would have come alone to subdue him.

Who would have thought that Yang Hong, a divine constable of the Divine Constable Bureau, had less experience than a rookie like him?

Zhou Shu complained inwardly, but he said, “The enemy was too cunning!”

“Hmph, does he think we can’t do anything if he dies?” Yang Hong was so angry that he wanted to die. He was drenched in excrement, and this was the result?

“Do you really think the Divine Constable Bureau is useless?”

“The Divine Constable Bureau has ways to summon souls?!” Zhou Shu exclaimed.

“What does that mean?” Yang Hong asked curiously.

Zhou Shu gave a simple explanation. This world didn’t seem to have heard of the saying of souls before.

“Superintendent Zhou, you are talking about the divine spirit. When a person dies, unless they are a first-rank martial artist, their divine spirit will immediately dissipate. How can they be summoned back?” Yang Hong said. “But his death doesn’t mean that all the clues have disappeared. I will dig out all his connections!”

The Divine Constable Bureau was very powerful, and Yang Hong was ruthless. As long as it was related to this traitor, he would investigate everything!

After hearing Yang Hong’s explanation, Zhou Shu nodded. “Then, I’ll have to trouble you, Divine Constable Yang. I won’t be involved any longer.”

He wasn’t too interested in investigating the case.

Just as Yang Hong was inspecting the traitor’s corpse, Zhou Shu’s eyes flashed. His divine sense condensed from the Visualization of the Five Mountains’ True Form secretly covered an area of ten feet around him.

Zhou Shu’s Visualization of the Five Mountains’ True Form had just entered basic mastery. Although he had condensed his divine sense, it could only cover a range of three meters.

If he mastered the Visualization of the Five Mountains’ True Form, his consciousness would be able to separate itself from his body. Then he wouldn’t need to get close to detect it.

With his divine sense fully released, Zhou Shu felt as if he had become a small radar. Everything within a three-meter radius was reflected in his mind, forming a three-dimensional image.

The residence of the spy was actually very large. But it was mainly because the courtyard was huge, and there were only five rooms.

Zhou Shu carefully chose a foothold to avoid getting his feet dirty.

After Zhou Shu jumped a few steps in the courtyard, his divine sense had already covered the entire courtyard.

Yang Hong felt that his actions were somewhat strange. He raised his head and glanced at Zhou Shu.

Zhou Shu’s expression didn’t change as he looked around curiously.

Seeing this, Yang Hong ignored him.

“Superintendent Zhou, I have to trouble you for a favor,” Yang Hong said. “I have to stay here to guard the scene. Could you help inform the Divine Constable Bureau to send a few constables over?”

“Why don’t I stay here and watch for you while you go back and get people and change your clothes?” Zhou Shu pointed at Yang Hong’s clothes.

“You?” Yang Hong hesitated. What if the traitor has an accomplice…

“Divine Constable Yang, are you worried about me?” Zhou Shu said.

“What if he has an accomplice…” Yang Hong hesitated. If something really happened to Zhou Shu, he wouldn’t be able to bear the consequences.

“Don’t worry.” Zhou Shu laughed as he patted the Autumn Anatidae Plume Saber on his waist.

“I’m not bragging, but I’m not afraid of normal thieves. Divine Constable Yang, you might not know this, but when I first entered the capital’s Saber Cave to comprehend saber intent, I gained something.”

There were many people who knew about this matter, so there was no point in hiding it. It was also beneficial to reveal a bit of his cultivation, as long as he kept a trump card.

Yang Hong was still somewhat hesitant.

“Divine Constable Yang, as a man, you should be more decisive. This is the capital. If there’s really any danger, can’t I just run away?” Zhou Shu said impatiently. “To tell you the truth, it’s not that easy to kill me in the capital.”

Yang Hong thought of Zhou Shu’s ident.i.ty. With his status, he should have some survival means.

When he thought of this, he didn’t hesitate anymore. With his speed, his trip to the Divine Constable Bureau wouldn’t take too long, so there shouldn’t be any problems.

“In that case, I’ll have to trouble you, Superintendent Zhou. If anything happens, don’t force yourself. Your safety is the priority,” Yang Hong instructed.

“Got it. Hurry up and go,” Zhou Shu urged.

Yang Hong executed his movement technique and sprinted away, leaving behind a unique scent that lingered for a long time.

Zhou Shu pinched his nose and shouted, “The Divine Constable Bureau is handling a case! Anyone who dares to approach will be killed without exception!”

He realized that the Divine Constable Bureau’s name was quite useful. With this shout, these idlers who wanted to come closer to watch the show immediately dispersed.

After confirming that there was no one else around, Zhou Shu exerted force under his feet. Like a giant bird, he crossed several meters, crossing the filthy ground, and directly entered the house.

He had to make the best use of his time. After Yang Hong brought people back, they would definitely thoroughly search this place. At that time, it would be difficult to do anything.

Zhou Shu gently lifted up the bed in the room, then carefully pried open the tiles under the bed.

If not for his divine sense, he might not have discovered the secret so quickly.

After prying open the tiles, he dug up the soil, revealing a reddish-brown wooden box.

After he saw the wooden chest, his expression brightened.

I knew it. How could Zhu Chuanfeng possibly transfer the heaven-grade weapons in such a short period of time?

So that old fellow was hiding them here!

Now, it seemed that this traitor had a close relations.h.i.+p with Zhu Chuanfeng. If he didn’t trust him enough, why would Zhu Chuanfeng have given such important things to him for safekeeping?

Inside the chest, the seven heaven-grade weapons quietly lay there. Even through their sheaths, Zhou Shu could still feel the sharpness of the weapons.

Good stuff.

Initially, he didn’t expect much. He didn’t expect that there would be an unexpected surprise here!

Without any hesitation, Zhou Shu took out the seven heaven-grade weapons. As for the other weapons in the box, Zhou Shu didn’t touch them.

Even if he wanted to gain some benefits himself, he had to leave some leftovers for the Divine Constable Bureau.

He placed the chest back into the hole and restored it. Zhou Shu looked at the seven heaven-grade weapons in his hands and felt a bit awkward.

Although there were no long weapons among these seven heaven-grade weapons, if he just held them like this, when Yang Hong returned, even if he was blind, he would be able to see them.

Should I leave directly?

That’s even worse. I promised Yang Hong to help guard the scene.

He could only hide them nearby.

Zhou Shu thought for a moment and jumped over the wall in a flash.

There was no one in the courtyard next door. Perhaps the owner had gone out to work. Zhou Shu dug a hole in the corner and buried the seven heaven-grade weapons before returning to the courtyard of the traitor.

When the Divine Constable Bureau was done investigating, he would dig out the heaven-grade weapons and take them away.. At that time, he would be able to do whatever he wanted with them.
