When Yin Zhijie heard that the culprit who unrestrainedly kidnapped people in Divine Martial City was the ”Earth Divine King”, he instantly felt a strong pressure pressing on his body, making him unable to breathe.

The normally arrogant and domineering Yin Zhijie was like a deflated ball, listless and listless. He had originally wanted to take over the position of the commander of the guard regiment in Divine Martial City, and also solve the case of the Great Picking Flower Pirates, then he would be able to wash away the haze brought about by the Heavenly Dipper Sect's loss to Leng Jun in one fell swoop.

However, the criminal today was the ”Earth Divine King”. Even his clan's ancestors were afraid of him, did he have the power to capture them?

Seeing Yin Zhijie like this, he knew what Yin Zhijie was worried about. Thus, he took a step forward and whispered: ”Commander, are you worried that if those thieves are really Earth Divine King's people, we won't be able to deal with them?”

Although Yin Zhijie didn't want to admit it, he saw that Sun Xueshan seemed to be fully prepared, so he let out a ”Yes” from his nose, which counted as admitting Sun Xueshan's words. He then asked, ”What, does Vice Commander Sun have any brilliant ideas?”

Sun Xueshan grinned and said, ”I don't dare to say it, and I'm sure the commander that this subordinate thinks of must have already thought of it.” ”This lowly official dares to speak of my method to the Commander. I would like to see if there are any areas where my thoughts are similar to the Commander's, so I might as well ask the Commander to guide me in my inadequacies.”

Although Yin Zhijie thought himself to be too much, he was definitely not an idiot. He could tell that Sun Xue Shan was saying this to give him face. However, his flattery was so obvious that anyone could tell that if he were to easily fall for it, wouldn't that leave a good excuse for others to brag and flatter him?!

Currently, in the main hall of the main yamen, Centurions and Ten Captains had already been sent out to search everywhere. Only three Vice Commanders and six Captains, totalling to less than ten people, were left. Although there were not many people, Yin Zhijie did not want to leave such an impression in front of others. However, he really didn't have any other solution to the current predicament, so he could only hope that Sun Xueshan would come up with a good solution.

Yin Zhijie who was at a loss of what to do could only say impatiently to Sun Xueshan: ”If there's any solution, just say it, don't beat around the bush with me.”

Sun Xueshan was stung, but he didn't show any embarrassment or dissatisfaction. He maintained a smile and said, ”This official thinks that we should first investigate whether or not the kidnapping was done by the Earth Divine King's people. Secondly, he had to let his subordinates clearly investigate whether Earth Divine King was on that ship or not. If all of the above were true, then it would be more troublesome. The only solution would be to ask for the help of the Divine Palace's three Sword Gods. If the Earth Divine King is not here and only his subordinates are doing it, then I think that with Escort Regiment's strength, there's still a way to catch them. If it really is useless, we can ask the Divine Officer s of the Divine Hall to help out. ”

Sun Xueshan's idea wasn't very brilliant. However, he brought up two important points, and that was to clarify the matter first. Yin Zhijie thought for a moment, waved his hand, and said: ”Then I'll leave this matter to Vice Commander Sun, go quickly and find out if the thieves have arrived on Earth Divine King's large ship.”

”Yes sir!”

Sun Xueshan complied and left with a complacent expression.

Leng Jun hadn't slept for two days and two nights. In order to help Yun Jian find out about his fiancee, he once again snuck into the Divine Palace. However, in these two days, he had not found the courtyard where the beautiful girls lived, nor did he hear anything about Yun Jian's fiancee, Yun'er. The only thing he gained from it was a lot of gold, silver, and jewelry. He did not hold back and kept all of them in his bosom. Especially when he found a few ”Dragon's Saliva Pill”. These things were not only priceless, but were able to cure all kinds of diseases.

After staying in the Divine Palace for two days, Leng Jun was so tired that he was about to collapse at night when he had to search all the courtyards and palaces for clues and during the day when he had to hide from the people in the Divine Palace. In desperation, he could only exit his Divine Palace and return to the tavern opened by Hua Linglong.

The reason he didn't go to the ”Light Smoke Hall” wasn't because he already knew that Yin Zhijie was sending people to look for him, but because the woman, Yuan Hong, was inside the hall. Leng Jun didn't have that kind of spirit, he only wanted to have a good night's sleep.
