The next day .
Lin Sheng was engrossed in playing the harp . As he could not enter the dream, he decided to focus his whole day into the Bloodazure Harp .
He had noticed, using this to train his holy powers, the progress could only be described as fast, so he did not want to waste any time .
Nothing had changed over on his side, but something had happened at Ironfist Society .
Sarroux had gone home .
He had discussed it with old man Dao Ling and gone home alone; apparently, he had something to settle and had to take a few days off .
In the meantime, the old man would be managing the place .
Lin Sheng too had gotten a call from Sarroux and was informed on the matter .
Now that Sarroux was away, all of the society’s matters now fell on the shoulders of Dao Ling and the new recruit Luo Xinna .
Lin Sheng went over to the society to have a look, and compared with when Sarroux was around, Dao Ling and Luo Xinna had announced a few new sets of rules, which made the place look even more organized .
That said, while it may be more organized, it had somewhat lost its revolutionary zeal .
After finding out that nothing was wrong, Lin Sheng did not pay much attention to the Society anymore and was engrossed in playing the harp .
At the same time… the murder cases in Huaisha City was rapidly increasing .
Ironfist Society .
Dao Ling sat in the training room as he drew long breaths . The holy power within his body flowed slowly as it healed the inner wounds in his body .
*Knock, knock, knock…*

Someone was knocking on the door, as a voice rang out .
“Master Dao Ling, something had happened, and we might need your help in dealing with it?”
Dao Ling opened his eyes as a glint of gold flashed across his eyes .
“What happened?” He let out a long breath, as he asked .
“There were a few robbery-cum-murder cases last night in the city,” the man at the door said .
“Oh?” Dao Ling paused for a moment .
Sarroux was not here, and Master Lin Sheng usually isn’t bothered with the running of the society and was simply focused on training . With this sort of leader, the core principle of the society was naturally to make money, train, make money, train ad infinitum .
And he had heard from the disciples about the robbery-cum-murder cases .
To him, as long it did not affect the Ironfist Society he was not bothered either .
At this day and age, with the general situation chaotic, plus the Xilin’s government’s deep-rooted corruption; with so many issues popping up, even if he wanted to be bothered he did not have the strength to do so .
So, as long all is well in Ironfist Society, it was fine by him .
But now…
Dao Ling stood up and opened the door .
Outside was a young disciple with a crew cut, bowing down respectfully as he reported .
“Master Dao Ling, the key matter is, that someone from the society was affected…”
“Hm?” Dao Ling frowned . “Give me the details . Who was affected, what’s the situation like?”
It would be a stain on his honor if something were to happen just right after Sarroux left .
“When we did the roll call today, Xu Wanqing did not come . Her relative called, saying that something had happened . Xu Wanqing was hospitalized with serious injuries . There’s a death at her home too . ” The young disciple reported .

“One death and one serious injury…” Dao Ling’s face turned grim . “Have you informed the leader yet?”
“No, we don’t have his contacts . ” A shred of anger appeared on the disciple’s face as he said .
“Someone actually dared to harm one of ours . Master Dao Ling, many of us are suggesting that we look for the murderer and take revenge for Xu Wanqing!”
“How’re her injuries like?” Dao Ling asked .
“Her left arm is broken… there’s a possibility she might be crippled…” the young man said sullenly .
“…Inform Master Sarroux first . ” Dao Ling said, “After this, whenever you guys leave the hall, go in groups or pairs and avoid going out alone . ”
“Uhh… Master Dao Ling, we have tried to contact Master Sarroux, but we can’t get through the number he left behind . ” The disciple quickly added .
“Hmmm?” Dao Ling raised his eyebrow, an ill omen brooding in his heart .
“Let’s go to the hospital first . ” He said grimly . “Also, sent someone to inform Master Lin Sheng . His house is at…” He quickly told the latter’s Lin Sheng’s address .
“Yes!”
Sarroux was behind his dad Wayne, as he looked at two bizarre corpses lying on the ground .
The corpses looked like praying mantises, their entire body green with a thick carapace, on it were tiny bristles .
But could a mantis grow that big?
He could not believe his eyes .
The two corpses were the size of a man, and the fatal wounds on them were on the chest, blasted open by a heavy sniper rifle .
Sticky green blood flowed outwards from the wound .
“Is this the thing that had been going about on a murder spree?” Wayne asked as he got up .

“Yes, chief . When we discovered them, they were planning to ambush a couple nearby . ” A man in a black suit said .
“Have you sent the samples for analysis?” Wayne asked .
He got up, and by his appearance, with his dark red suit, his elegant, refined demeanor was the polar opposite of the impulsive Sarroux .
It was hard to believe that they were father and son .
“Yes . Also, Deputy Chief Smith said that they have found a new clue, and wanted you to go and have a look . ”
“Understood . ” Wayne nodded before turning towards Sarroux . “Want to come along? Since you’re here, I might as well let you know the things that I’ve been keeping from you . ”
Sarroux looked at the two corpses again before nodding hard .
The two may not have noticed, but at least half of the dozens of people around were exchanging some mysterious glances .
While in the darkness, the telephone signal of everyone present had been unknowingly disrupted by a mysterious signal .
Within the dark forested hill, a massive mantis hung down from the tree branch .
“Interesting… I had no problems with so many places, but to lose two bodies in a small port city…”
The mantis’ red eyes glowed red, as if it was activating some sort of ability, and checking whatever information from its split bodies .
And soon, the red glow turned bright .
“Found it…”
“There’s always a few who want to struggle . It would be simpler to just keep your heads down and stay alive, no?”
The mantis opened its mouth as a long slithering tongue came out .
“Take care of them, number four . ”
“Yes!”
A massive shadow suddenly leaped away .
*Foosh!*
The next moment, it disappeared into the dark woods .
*Boom!!*
Lin Sheng’s fist smashed ferociously on the chest of the Sacred Shield Tyrant, while his face ate the full brunt of a shield bash .
He was slightly dazed as his golden eyes suddenly widened, before steadying himself to catch the oncoming Tyrant’s fist .
He met the attack with his right knee before strike hard with his elbow!
*Bam!!*
A massive cloud of dust burst out from the area that the Tyrant was brutally hit .
He staggered two steps back before he lifted his shield up for another strike .
*Bam!!*
He pressed his massive hand against the shield and charged forward .
At that same moment, a flurry of powerful kicks landed on the shield .
As the shield creaked and twisted, the Tyrant could no longer keep his balance and was sent tumbling onto the ground .
