Chapter 1363: Law Enforcement Hall's Investigative Abilities
Lin Chen was quickly taken to the Law Enforcement Hall by its members. Before the matter was thoroughly investigated, they treated Lin Chen with courtesy and arranged for him to stay in an extremely quiet secret chamber.
For Lin Chen, this was akin to changing the environment for cultivation.
However, being on someone else's turf, Lin Chen couldn't let his main body enter the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron for cultivation and could only cultivate his Divine Soul.
After all, entering the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron for cultivation using the Divine Soul requires just a single thought from Lin Chen.
Through this battle, Lin Chen also realized the importance of Soul Power during combat.
If it weren't for the elevation of his Soul Power this time, he might not have detected Ao Guang's assassination attempt. After all, Lin Chen couldn't keep the Abyssal Eye active at all times.
While Lin Chen was cultivating his Soul Power in the secret chamber of the Law Enforcement Hall, Bai Luo led his subordinates to conduct a swift investigation within the Yunlong Heavenly Palace.
Given the severe destruction that occurred, Bai Luo was deeply concerned and immediately mobilized all his subordinates to investigate.
Bai Luo was the captain of a squad in the Law Enforcement Hall with thirty-six team members. These members were all Creation Realm Experts, outstanding disciples of the Inner Sect of the Yunlong Heavenly Palace.
While the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall were investigating the matter, Liu Yong quietly hid away.
When he first met Ao Guang, he anticipated this day and had prepared the perfect escape plan, ensuring that this matter would never be traced back to him.
No one knew about his meeting with Ao Guang that night.
So even if Ao Guang failed to assassinate Lin Chen, he could ensure his safety.
When Lin Chen was taken away by the Law Enforcement Hall, Liu Yong knew that Ao Guang's assassination attempt had failed.
However, Liu Yong did not expect that Lin Chen would be so formidable as to counter-kill Ao Guang.
Having faced Lin Chen several times, Liu Yong had some understanding of Lin Chen's strength.
As for Ao Guang's assassination attempt, Liu Yong had actually anticipated its failure.
Ao Guang was an Inner Sect disciple, acting low-key within the Yunlong Heavenly Palace, perhaps fearing exposure of his identity.
Liu Yong did not know much about Ao Guang's strength, but the latter being a Fourth Layer Creation Realm expert should have easily been able to kill a Nirvana Realm expert.
But unfortunately, Lin Chen is not an ordinary Nirvana Realm Martial Artist.
When Hei Xuan's Servant instructed Ao Guang to eliminate Lin Chen, Liu Yong knew that Ao Guang would fail.
Because although Lin Chen's cultivation wasn't high, he was cunning, had many methods, and possessed extraordinary combat power.
Nevertheless, Liu Yong did not warn Ao Guang about this.
Because Liu Yong was dissatisfied with Hei Xuan's Servant's attitude towards him. Although Hei Xuan's Servant didn't explicitly say it, his attitude clearly treated Liu Yong as a useless person.
It must be known that Hei Xuan's Servant had been hiding with the Liu Family all along.
Staying at their place but holding him in disdain, how could Liu Yong tolerate such humiliation?
Hence, he wanted Hei Xuan's Servant's mission to fail, to curb his arrogance, letting him know that failing to kill Lin Chen wasn't due to his own lack of ability, but rather because Lin Chen was not an easy opponent.
When Ao Guang's mission failed and he was counter-killed by Lin Chen, Liu Yong secretly laughed to himself.
However, Liu Yong didn't expect that the Law Enforcement Hall would trace things back to him.
Though there was no evidence, they knew this matter was somewhat connected to him.
But without evidence, they couldn't do anything to Liu Yong.
After all, the Law Enforcement Hall always proceeded based on evidence.
Without evidence, Liu Yong secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
However, although the Law Enforcement Hall didn't find that Liu Yong directly participated in this matter, they discovered that Ao Guang was an undercover agent from the Black Yan Hall.
What's more, it took the Law Enforcement Hall disciples only two days to uncover this information.
At the same time, Bai Luo also conducted a thorough investigation into Lin Chen's affairs.
He admired Lin Chen greatly. From the moment Lin Chen arrived at the Yunlong Heavenly Palace, he managed to offend both the Heaven Hall and numerous strong figures.
He even compelled the Zhang Family to pay money for ransom.
This left Bai Luo feeling amused and respect for Lin Chen. Although the guy was extremely greedy, he conducted himself openly, unlike others who used underhanded means.
"Junior Brother Lin Chen, we have investigated these matters thoroughly. The one who attempted to assassinate you was an undercover agent from the Black Yan Hall, and this matter seems to involve Liu Yong from the Liu Family. However, we don't have concrete evidence, so be cautious of him in the future."
"Even within the Yunlong Heavenly Palace, we can't guarantee your safety one hundred percent." Bai Luo looked at Lin Chen and advised.
Upon hearing this, Lin Chen was startled.
He had not expected the Law Enforcement Hall to investigate matters so swiftly. Their efficiency was almost on par with that of the Dark Division, Black Crow, which he had established.
Thinking of this, Lin Chen thought it was wise not to hide the matter from Bai Luo, as they would eventually find out anyway.
"Thank you for the reminder, Senior Brother Bai. I understand. Since the matter has been investigated, I'll take my leave now." Lin Chen looked at Bai Luo and cupped his fists.
"No need to thank me, Junior Brother Lin Chen. It's our duty as members of the Law Enforcement Hall." Bai Luo also cupped his fists in return to Lin Chen.
He admired Lin Chen as a Heavenly Pride Individual, particularly because Lin Chen could counter-kill Ao Guang, someone with a Fourth Level Creation Realm Cultivation, despite having only a Nirvana Realm Sixth Layer cultivation. Bai Luo still couldn't fathom how Lin Chen achieved it.
However, every Martial Artist has their secrets, and Bai Luo knew better than to delve too deeply.
After some polite exchanges with Bai Luo, Lin Chen left the Law Enforcement Hall.
This time, Lin Chen had originally set out to take on a mission to solve his financial troubles.
But he was delayed by the Law Enforcement Hall for two days. Calculating the time, he could now venture to that unfamiliar world to cultivate again, something he didn't want to postpone even for a day.
After all, the sooner he utilized the cultivation opportunity, the sooner he could refresh the time.
Lin Chen left the Law Enforcement Hall and returned to the Yellow Hall, where he encountered Yu Weilian, Yang Minghui, and others coming back from class.
This time, accompanying them, aside from Zi Ling, was Cheng Liang.
"Lin Chen, so you went out! No wonder when I went looking for you yesterday, there was no response after knocking on the door for ages." Yang Minghui looked delighted as she saw Lin Chen returning and hurriedly came to him, happily saying.
Hearing Yang Minghui's words, Lin Chen was speechless, wondering if this silly girl had lost her mind, coming to find him for no reason every day.
