589: Chapter 589 Qin Yan Arrives!!

"What I want, Lord Zhao knows," Di Jie said slowly. "As long as you give me the Grandmaster True Fluid, I guarantee that within three days, I will definitely help Lord Zhao capture Zhu Ming.

Lord Zhao, capturing Zhu Ming is a great achievement; perhaps you could even get a promotion from this."

Zhao Lei heard this and merely sneered.

A promotion? That was impossible!

The official positions in the Jumu City Secret Guard Division were all fixed.

Even if he captured Zhu Ming, it would only be enough to keep his current position.

Unless he reached the Grandmaster Realm, it would be impossible to advance further. And to reach the Grandmaster Realm, Grandmaster True Fluid was essential!

Looking at Di Jie's stance, if he didn't give him the Grandmaster True Fluid, the other party wouldn't help him capture Zhu Ming!

But if he gave away the Grandmaster True Fluid, his hope for a Breakthrough would be completely dashed.

Zhao Lei was suddenly caught in a dilemma!

"Chief Zhao, there is a youth outside the division claiming to be Qin Yan who wishes to see you."

Just then, a Secret Guard hurried to Zhao Lei and said in a low voice.

"Qin Yan?"

Zhao Lei was confused for a moment.

Then, he seemed to think of something, and a glimmer of joy appeared in his eyes.

Could it be Qin Yan, the Disciple from the Taixuan Holy Land?

As the hegemon of the Taixuan Realm, the Taixuan Holy Land had missions spread throughout the entire Taixuan Realm.

He had posted the mission to capture Zhu Ming at the Taixuan Holy Land, and two days ago, a Holy Land Disciple named Qin Yan had accepted this mission.

However, the Taixuan Holy Land was so far from Jumu City, at least tens of thousands of miles away.

How could the other party have arrived so quickly?

Unless—

Qin Yan used a teleportation array!

Thinking of this, Zhao Lei's expression became even more excited.

Disciples who can afford to take teleportation arrays usually have considerable wealth.

For those long-distance teleportation arrays, the number of spirit stones consumed for a single activation is astronomical, something an ordinary Martial Artist simply cannot afford.

Perhaps this Young Master Qin Yan has some powerful methods or a spirit weapon that could help capture Zhu Ming!

"Go quickly and invite Young Master Qin in."

Zhao Lei said excitedly, his voice tinged with urgency.

"Yes."

The Secret Guard acknowledged the order and turned to leave.

On the side, Di Jie frowned as he watched Zhao Lei's excited expression.

Who is this Qin Yan?

What could make Zhao Lei, who is currently full of worries and distressed, so happy?

Could it also be related to capturing Zhu Ming?

Before long, the Secret Guard walked back.

Behind him followed a young man.

The person who arrived was none other than Qin Yan.

He was dressed in a black robe with a gentle expression.

Zhao Lei's gaze fell on Qin Yan immediately.

He looked up and down at this Disciple from the Taixuan Holy Land, secretly evaluating him.

However, when he sensed the aura on Qin Yan, his brows furrowed slightly.

Middle Sixth-Grade.

This strength... is just too low.

He had originally thought that a Holy Land Disciple daring enough to take this mission would at least be Late Sixth-Grade, or even Peak Sixth-Grade.

But this young man before him was only Middle Sixth-Grade.

Zhao Lei couldn't help but feel disappointed, but he still asked:

"Are you Young Master Qin Yan from the Holy Land?"

"That is me."

Qin Yan nodded slightly.

"Are you Zhao Lei?"

Zhao Lei nodded.

The two immediately confirmed each other's identities.

Afterwards, Qin Yan's gaze swept across the surroundings.

Cell after cell, dark and damp, with a faint smell of blood permeating the air.

Inside the cells were prisoners, some in rags, some covered in wounds, some with dull eyes, and some filled with hatred.

"No wonder they asked me to capture Zhu Ming; it seems this Secret Guard Division is responsible for capturing fugitives and the like."

Qin Yan thought to himself.

That's right, the mission he accepted was to capture and kill Zhu Ming!

The difficulty of this mission wasn't very high, but the contribution was surprisingly high, reaching a full 100 taixuan points!

It was much more than an average mission.

"Lord Zhao—"

Qin Yan withdrew his gaze and got straight to the point.

"Could you tell me the details of this mission?"

Zhao Lei nodded.

He took a deep breath and recounted the ins and outs of the matter in detail.

Actually, there wasn't much to tell.

Zhu Ming was originally a prisoner in custody who had committed several cases of extermination-level murders and was sentenced to life imprisonment.

But a few days ago, he bribed a Secret Guard and secretly escaped from prison.

Then, the people from the Secret Guard Division searched the whole city but couldn't find any trace of him.

There were no clues either.

No witnesses, no bloodstains, no lingering aura, nothing at all.

All in all, the investigation progress was 0%.

"Young Master Qin Yan."

"Are you confident about this matter?"

Zhao Lei looked at Qin Yan, his eyes full of worry.

Hearing this, Qin Yan nodded and said, "I am confident."

Hearing this, Zhao Lei's face immediately revealed joy.

"Young Master, then I wonder how long it will take for you to help find this Zhu Ming?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Yan pondered for a moment, and finally said slowly:

"Today, I will be able to find Zhu Ming and kill him."

"Hahaha."

As soon as Qin Yan's words fell, before Zhao Lei could speak, a burst of laughter suddenly came from the side.

Di Jie was seen laughing out loud, swaying back and forth, tears almost coming out.

"Zhao Lei, and this Young Master Qin Yan, I really don't want to laugh, but I truly can't help it."

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Di Jie couldn't help but explain.

However, the mocking smile on his face did not diminish in the slightest.

Finding and killing Zhu Ming in one day, how is that possible!

You have to know, even if he asked his Family's Old Ancestor to take action to deduce Zhu Ming's whereabouts, he wouldn't dare to say he could find him in less than a day.

The tracking techniques of the Di Family are unique in the entire Jumu City, and even they wouldn't dare to boast such a claim.

This kid, a mere Middle Sixth-Grade brat, on what basis?

If it weren't for the fact that the other party was a so-called Taixuan Holy Land Disciple, he would have gone up and slapped him twice by now.

Pretending to be cool in front of him, Di Jie?

He really doesn't know how high the sky is or how deep the earth is!

"Lord Zhao, who is this? He shouldn't be a person from your Secret Guard Division, right?"

Qin Yan looked at Di Jie and spoke indifferently.

His gaze was calm but carried a hint of scrutiny.

"He is the Young Master of the Di Family, Di Jie."

Zhao Lei introduced him in a low voice, his tone tinged with a bit of helplessness.

"When I handle a case, I don't want to be disturbed by irrelevant people."

Qin Yan said, his voice calm yet unquestionable.

Since the other party mocked him so much, he naturally wouldn't give him a pleasant look.

What Di Family Young Master, what does that have to do with him?

Zhao Lei looked at Qin Yan, then at Di Jie, quickly weighing the pros and cons in his heart.

On one side was the Di Family Young Master with a deep background, making endless demands.

On the other side was the Holy Land Disciple who accepted the mission, whose reward was completely within his ability to pay.

The scale in Zhao Lei's heart had unconsciously already tilted toward Qin Yan.

Although the Di Family is powerful, this is the Secret Guard Division.

In Jumu City, the City Lord's Mansion is the most powerful force!
