Chapter 72 - 71: The Six Gates God Catcher



Like a tiger descending from the mountain, Hei Wolf roared to the sky:

“Ahhhhh… Pei Xuanjing, I want you dead!” Boom!

His angry roar reverberated like a raging waterfall.

Visibly, his Blood Qi was boiling. His terrifying energy burst outward from him, pouring out in all directions, and the giant axe he wielded stirred up a fierce gale. He swung it towards Pei Xuanjing with all his might.

With a soft sigh, Pei Xuanjing seemed regretful about his failed attempt to persuade his foe.

Again, he drew the sword at his waist.

Clang!

The clear ringing of the sword was so crisp that even Hei Wolf’s furious howling couldn’t drown it out. His sharp air sword effortlessly pierced the gale.

Within the blink of an eye, Pei Xuanjing had already launched over a dozen sword strikes.

Thrust, lift, chop, hack, and cut; a variety of sword techniques flourished with ease. They overwhelmed the sound of the gale, leaving only the song of the sword between heaven and earth.

In a mere instant, he’d covered the dozen or so yards between them and his flurry of strikes rained down on Hei Wolf.

“What a flashy show! It’S just a stunt!”

Hei Wolf, his eyes burning red, unleashed a furious counterattack.

Clang, clang, clang…

Sword against axe, the clash resonated with the sound of steel striking steel.

During their fight, Pei Xuanjing repeatedly tried to uncover the identity of the mastermind behind his adversary, but to no avail.

Unruffled, Hei Wolf drowned out his words with a barrage of deadly axe swings, seeking to trap Pei Xuanjing in a deadly embrace.

A few rounds later, sensing others approaching, Pei Xuanjing ceased his inquiries.

“So be it, then. Time to die!”

Pei Xuanjing changed his sword technique.

Dharma Sword Skill!

After just a few moves, the other party was covered in fresh wounds, his clothes soaked in blood.

“Ah…” Even injured, Hei Wolf seemed to feel nothing. Fueled by madness, he acted recklessly, completely ignoring his own state.

With a leap, Pei Xuanjing rose into the air, the sword in his hand combined with his form to become one. The sword light shone as bright the rainbow.

His strike was pure, as blemishless as the azure sky and the white clouds. Striking from above, his sword descended with dazzling speed and a chilling aura, carrying a terrifying sharpness that was impossible to resist!

A flash of sword light hllrtled toward them at an angle. like a holt of lightning in the ski,’

Sky-bound Immortal!

Whoosh!

With one thrust, his sword pierced Hei Wolf’s heart. The massive axe fell from his grip, and his eyes filled with regret, rage, and remorse.

“Since we’ve agreed to let you brothers reunite, I will not go back on my word.”

Looking at the dead assassin, Pei Xuanjing’s face was full of cold indifference.

This was all brought upon themselves. He would not show mercy nor should he to his enemies.

Swoosh!

Pei Xuanjing pulled out the Flowing Flame Sword, twisting his wrist slightly to flick off the blood. The blade once again became clean, though it appeared even more crimson now.

He didn’t sheathe his sword, simply holding it as he turned his gaze to the distance.

A man of about thirty years old was approaching from far away, dressed in gray clothes, with a Goose Feather Blade hanging from his waist.

“Fu Changge of Six Gates greets Editor Pei.” Fu Changge greeted him with a fist in palm salute.

The Six Gates originally referred to the collective term for the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, the Ducal Palace, and the court of the Three Judicial Departments. Later, they specifically established an institution called Six Gates, led by the chief of the Six Gates, who had jurisdiction over all the capturers within the Great Ming territory under the three departments.

And because he often dealt with the people in the pugilist world, even though he was a government official, Fu Changge had become accustomed to their way of greeting.

With a light expression, Pei Xuanjing said, “So it’s the impartial and upright God Catcher Fu. I’ve heard much about you.”

Apart from the chief capturer, the Six Gates is divided into Gold Badge, Silver Badge, Copper Badge, and Ordinary Capturer. The level of a capturer isn’t solely dependent on one’s strength but also their merit.

In addition to this, within the Six Gates, there are four renowned capturers—each known as the Four Great God Catchers.

The four titles were ‘Impartial Supreme’, ‘Unbiased Justice’, ‘Immutable as a Mountain’, and ‘Iron-Faced Ruthless’. The man before him, Fu Changge, was the new holder of the title ‘Impartial Supreme’.

The Four Great God Catchers could be of any badge level, but they had a unique privilege: they could bypass the chief capturer and report cases directly to the Three Judicial Departments.

“Editor Pei is polite; it’s just a nominal title,” Fu Changge laughed.

Seeing that Pei Xuanjing still seemed slightly defensive, he pointed to Hei Wolf’s corpse and explained, “Editor Pei, I have come for these men.”

The MO Bei trio, namely the Cang Wolf, Qing Wolf, and Hei Wolf brothers, were infamous for their acts of extreme brutality, committing innumerable atrocities, and had long been subject to bounty hunting by the Six Gates.

They originally resided far in MO Bei, and as long as they didn’t enter the Great Ming territory, the Six Gates turned a blind eye.

However, three months ago, the trio suddenly invaded the Great Ming territory, heading straight for Tiandu. Fu Changge received the news and had been tracking them since.

What he didn’t expect was that they came to assassinate Pei Xuanjing and were killed by him in return.

“I see.” Pei Xuanjing nodded, then sheathed his sword, “I hope God Catcher Fu can understand.”

He originally hoped to investigate the mastermind behind these three men through their invested identities, but after hearing about the identities of these men from Fu Changge, he knew this lead would be hard to track.

The mastermind behind the scenes had gone to great lengths to summon these three men from MO Bei; they were definitely part of a meticulous plan. Any clues left behind had likely been thoroughly cleared, and finding any further leads would not be easy.

Fu Changge shook his head, “Editor Pei is just being cautious after experiencing such a situation, it’s only human nature. No need for apology.”

He pointed to Hei Wolf’s corpse and said, “Editor Pei’s slaying of these men has greatly aided me, sparing me much effort.”

Pei Xuanjing said, “It seems that God Catcher Fu already knows about what just happened…”

Fu Changge, having arrived from where Pei Xuanjing had slain the other two men, had some understanding of the situation and knew what Pei Xuanjing was asking. “The Military Equipment Department has handed this case over to Six Gates, and that young man has been sent back to the Martial Academy by my men.”

Pei Xuanjing nodded his head, listening as Fu Changge continued, “This time you killed these three, we’ll need your cooperation in detailing this situation. But as it’S getting late today, I’ll personally bring people to visit you tomorrow. As for the reward for these three men, after the case is closed, I will urge my men to send these things to the Martial Academy.”

Pei Xuanjing nodded and then crouched down to search the body of Hei Wolf, finding his Cultivation Techniques, Martial Studies secrets, and some silver banknotes.

Earlier, he had collected similar items from the other two men, so he deduced that Hei Wolf would also carry the same.

After all, for these criminals, carrying these important items themselves would be the safest method.

Without checking them, he stuffed the newfound techniques into his pocket along with the others he had collected.

“In that case, I will await your visit, God Catcher Fu, at the Martial Academy.”

With that, Pei Xuanjing turned and left..
