What happened next was not beyond Huang Yuchen's expectations.

When Pang Qi saw the man in black lying on the ground, he was very surprised. Before this, there had never been a similar incident in Chi Kang City. Even if anyone told him that there were illegal people in Chi Kang City, he would not believe it.

But now people are lying on the ground, and Pang Qi is shocked and more angry.

There have been no vicious incidents in Chikang City for many years. There are very few people fighting and quarrels, let alone assassinating the city lord. What's more, the city lord is not an ordinary person, but a prince of the Qitian Empire.

Therefore, afterwards, the investigation of all the personnel in Chikang City was naturally carried out, and the trace of disagreement that Pang Qi had in his heart before disappeared.

Immediately, Kangcheng issued an order, and the city entered a state of martial law, and only allowed to enter but not leave.

That night, the breeders were divided into two groups and guarded the front and back gates of the city gates in Kang City and did not allow anyone to leave the city. Wang Junliang, Yin Cai and Zhuang Lexian each brought several reliable farmers and began to quickly check the suspicious people from door to door.

Such situations rarely happen in Chikang City, and such a thing has not happened in recent years. However, most people have expressed their willingness to undergo investigation after hearing that someone assassinated the city lord and said that they were completely willing to undergo investigation and knew everything about their homes.

Before, Wang Junliang and Pang Qi had already visited many homes, most of whom were indigenous residents of Chikang City. The village households they led were selected from these people.

There are many people who want to join and help, but Wang Junliang politely declined. Such things are still a bit dangerous, and the more people go there, the worse it is.

However, after all, the manpower is limited, and this work is not going fast. Huang Yuchen also intentionally did it. He stayed quietly in the city lord's mansion alone. If anyone can't stop coming to him, he will be very welcome.

But until the next day, the entire city had been checked halfway, and no hidden people had any movement. Huang Yuchen waited for a night, but he probably could understand what these people were thinking.

There will definitely be no small number of people who sneak into Chikang City. They may be a little lucky in their hearts, hoping that they can get through this investigation. If they get through, they will undoubtedly have more guarantees in Chikang City in the future.

However, with Yin Cai, Zhuang Lexian and Wang Junliang's ability to do things, it is easy to find a cultivator when he found it face to face.

It was bright and the few people had not come back yet. Huang Yuchen, who had been waiting for a night, stood up and stretched his waist long. Today was the three-day schedule, and Jiying and Surong should be back.

In other words, it is best to solve the matters within Chikang City today. He is more concerned about the affairs of Mingyuan City in the distance. Only after taking Mingyuan City can he truly accumulate strength and continue to move forward. Chikang City is just a temporary ending point.

He walked slowly into the hall of the city lord's mansion. The candlelight in the hall was still there, but the charcoal fire for heating had been extinguished. Huang Yuchen took a deep breath of the cold morning air, and his mind became clearer and clearer.

At his level, there will be no problem not sleeping all night, and the energy in his body has been kept in full state and full of energy.

After a while, someone came in from a distance from the city lord's mansion. Huang Yuchen looked closely and found that it was Yin Cai. His face was a little heavy, and he quickly walked into the hall of the city lord's mansion.

"What's wrong?" Huang Yuchen asked, looking at Yin Cai's expression.

"According to your instructions, I found that the suspicious people did not touch them, but I found a lot of them that night." Yin Cai looked at Huang Yuchen and said, "I led the people to open the doors of thousands of households for simple inquiries and registration. Even so, I found no less than fifty people with cultivation. If this ratio is based on this, this Chikang City looks weak, but in fact the hidden combat power is really good."

Huang Yuchen frowned slightly when he heard this. This was indeed much more than he had imagined. Either the area Yin Cai searched for was the core area where these people lived, or there were more cultivators hidden in the entire city than he had imagined.

"Did they all notice it?" Huang Yuchen asked.

"I must have noticed it." Yin Cai replied: "But I followed the routine, and I explained my purpose after knocking on the door, and did not search. But everyone in the house met. They knew that we had few people and would probably gather strength to attack us later."

"That road should not be." Huang Yuchen said softly: "These people must not have entered Chikang City recently. They have been hiding here for a long time. It may be the spies placed in Chikang City, and not everyone is targeting me."

"I don't know if it was targeted at you before." Yin Cai said: "But it's only a matter of time before these people target you after you entered the city. We didn't lock the city a few days ago, and it's not clear whether they received any new orders."

"Even if they receive new orders, it doesn't matter." Huang Yuchen said: "It will take a long time to hide such a secret book. I guess their purpose is not to stare at me, and these people are definitely not of the same force. Can you still remember where the people you see live, right?"

"Of course I remember." Yin Cai said: "There is still half of the division of labor that has not been completed. I just came back in advance and told you to make you mentally prepare. Do you have to transfer some of the livestock back? No matter how powerful you are, you are alone. If these people act together, they will still pose a threat to you."

The situation has not yet fully gathered, and Huang Yuchen can understand what Yin Cai means. After all, Huang Yuchen is limited by his staff, and Su Rong and Jiying have not come back yet. Huang Yuchen is naturally not afraid of several sneak attackers. But now he knows that there are so many cultivators hidden in the city, and before figuring out their identities, the necessary protection must be done.

Huang Yuchen nodded slightly and said, "The feeder will not move. I will let the giant come back. Giant is enough to deal with these ordinary cultivators."

"Okay, I'll inform him." Yin Cai nodded and walked out of the city lord's mansion. The actual situation in Chikang City was much more complicated than it seemed. Such a small city with a population of thousands of households actually hid so many cultivators. If you say that they have no plans, no one would believe it.

Huang Yuchen sat on the chair in the hall, looked at the gate of the city lord's mansion, and let out a sigh of relief. What he said to Yin Cai was trying not to be nervous, but Huang Yuchen himself understood that Chi Kang City had hidden some secrets, which could attract so many cultivators to gather together.

However, Wang Junliang had never told him about this before. If we follow the ratio Yin Caicai said, there would probably be hundreds of cultivators hidden in the entire Chikang City. These people could completely play the role of the mainstay in the army, but they were all arranged to Chikang City.

Huang Yuchen vaguely felt that monitoring and observing himself might be just one of their tasks, and the more important task was to hide in Chikang City, and he didn't know what else was worth doing.

Such an action may have begun before the rebellion of the Three Kings or earlier. What is their purpose...

Soon, a huge figure of a giant appeared in front of the door. He walked into the hall a few steps, grinned at Huang Yuchen, and stood behind Huang Yuchen.

Huang Yuchen felt a wall appear behind him, and he immediately felt much more at ease. He turned around and asked at the giant, "Are you hungry?"

When the giant heard this, he shook his head gently and grinned.

He can understand some simple words now, but it is obvious that his consciousness is not particularly clear and he cannot speak. Huang Yuchen can do nothing about this. Although his soul abilities are stronger than ordinary people, he has never been involved in this field, let alone he has treated others.

Huang Yuchen stopped talking. He sat quietly in the hall, waiting silently. He didn't know what he was waiting for. Maybe he was waiting for Jiying and Surong to come back, maybe he was waiting for the entire Chikang City investigation to complete and summarize the news.

During this period, Huang Yuchen stood up and lit the fire in the house. He didn't know how to ignite it simply, but with fire energy in his body, it was still easy to ignite it.

While drinking steaming tea, I waited quietly. Soon, it was already noon.

Suddenly, two figures appeared in the city lord's mansion. Huang Yuchen looked up and saw Su Rong and Ji Ying who had been away for three days. Seeing these two people, a string tense in Huang Yuchen's heart suddenly relaxed.

Jiying and Surong walked into the hall and looked at Huang Yuchen. Jiying said, "Do you listen now?"

Huang Yuchen grinned, then shook his head gently, and said, "There are some other things in the city. If these things are over, let's explain the matter in the far city."

Jiying nodded and sat down on the chair beside Huang Yuchen. Su Rong glanced at him, said nothing, walked straight into the hall, and found a room to rest.

"Did those cultivators attack you?" Jiying looked at Huang Yuchen and asked.

"There is one." Huang Yuchen said: "But only one appeared. I was a little puzzled about it, very strange."

"When I first found them, I felt strange." Jiying said: "There are not many, and it should not be for you, but I didn't find anything special to pay attention to in Chikang City. These practitioners are hiding around here and don't know what they intend."

"Will your outing go smoothly this time?" Huang Yuchen changed the subject and asked Jiying with a smile.

Jiying shook her head gently and said, "They were prepared for a long time, but it went smoothly. You are going to let Zhuang Lexian go directly to Mingyuan City, I'm afraid you'll be pushing it."
