We kill Shen Bai and Qin Shuang preemptively.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They will inevitably come for you. By now, the vegetable patch has absorbed the resentful Qi from the five dead Venerable Envoys. The anomaly is powerful enough.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We need a place to deal with Shen Bai, and you can serve as the bait.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this, the Dark Venerable Envoy produced a sheet of paper and placed it on the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Write a letter. Tell him you’ll be waiting in Hedong Village. Once he’s there, everything will be made clear.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know you’re worried Shen Bai will tell the Shengyun County constables. It doesn’t matter. If it comes to that, we’ll just kill them all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Great Zhou dynasty is in turmoil. As long as you leave no trace, this act of killing five Venerable Envoys from the Upper Evil Sect at a critical moment to ’protect the people of Shengyun County’ might even be held up as an example. After all, the Great Zhou Country needs heroes right now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Magistrate Li listened to the Dark Venerable Envoy’s words, falling into a deathly silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long moment, he took the paper, picked up the brush, and began to write.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Magistrate Li placed the letter on the table and rose to his feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s go. Time to set out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no other choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In recent years, every single thing he had done was a heinous crime. Any one of them was enough to have him beheaded ten times over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His only chance of survival was to continue cooperating with the Upper Evil Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You go on ahead,\" the Dark Venerable Envoy said, tracing a finger over her red lips. \"I need to stabilize the anomaly’s resentful Qi, then I will follow.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Magistrate Li nodded and left the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once Magistrate Li was gone, the Dark Venerable Envoy glanced back into the shadows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Four figures in black robes emerged from the darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of them spoke slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They say you’re as venomous as a viper, and it seems they’re right.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"On this trip, you’ve not only eliminated that major threat, the Light Venerable Envoy, but with just a few words, you’ve also sent Magistrate Li marching to his doom.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Truly brilliant.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Dark Venerable Envoy gave a seductive smile. \"Isn’t this for the best? Those five have never seen eye-to-eye with us. Eliminating them benefits us all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As for Magistrate Li, he’s a man crossing a river with only one boat available—ours. He has no choice but to see this through to the bitter end.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why would I ever let him live? Even if we kill Shen Bai and Qin Shuang, how could he possibly continue to be favored by the Great Zhou court? This is a major incident, after all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If we wipe out Shengyun County, the Sect Leader is sure to reward us handsomely. With such a great achievement to our name, we might finally have a chance to cooperate with the Wild Taoist Sect.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, the four Venerable Envoys nodded in agreement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A short while later, the Dark Venerable Envoy and the four others left the room together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai and Qin Shuang encountered no resistance on their way back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they arrived, the constables outside the Government Office looked surprised to see them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shopkeeper Shen, Lord Qin, what brings you here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Great Zhou Country, forms of address were a matter of great importance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The constable addressed Shen Bai first, a clear sign of his fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had single-handedly killed the County Magistrate’s nephew, his advisor, and two constables, yet had escaped completely unscathed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was hard for the constable not to be afraid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was to say nothing of the power Shen Bai had displayed in the great tomb. In a world where strength was paramount, such feats demanded respect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go get Chief Zheng. We have urgent business to discuss,\" Shen Bai said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The constable, sensing no deception, hurried off, first leading Shen Bai and his companion into the courtyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A short time later, Chief Zheng arrived in the courtyard with a group of constables.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Chief Zheng could speak, Shen Bai gave him a concise summary of what had happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Shuang added, \"As it stands, all the evidence points to Magistrate Li. We need him to cooperate with our investigation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chief Zheng cupped his hands. \"Please wait here, you two. I’ll go find the County Magistrate.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A State Governor from the Observatory had given the order, so Chief Zheng didn’t argue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, Chief Zheng returned from the back courtyard, holding a letter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shopkeeper Shen, Magistrate Li isn’t here. But he left a letter, and it’s addressed to you personally.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai raised an eyebrow, took the letter, and read it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heh. Interesting. He’s summoning us for a private meeting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Shuang read it as well, her fine eyebrows knitting together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The letter said that if they wanted to know the truth, they were to go to Hedong Village for a meeting—and that only Shen Bai and Qin Shuang could come.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If a third person came along, they would not see Magistrate Li.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We’re going?\" Qin Shuang asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai nodded, handing the letter back to Chief Zheng. \"Of course we’re going. It’s time to put an end to this. Chief Zheng, you and your men stay here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chief Zheng read the letter, pondered for a moment, then said, \"Be careful.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t say anything more. With Shen Bai’s level of power, his men would make no difference whether they went or not.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai nodded, said nothing more, and turned to walk away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lao Shen, be careful. That guy probably has an ambush waiting,\" Zhou Qing said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn’t stupid; he knew full well that going with them would only cause trouble for his friend, but he had to offer a word of warning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai waved a hand, signaling that it was fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, Shen Bai and Qin Shuang had vanished into the night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Hedong Village.」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Footsteps were a rarity here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The settlement was an outlier in Shengyun County—a deserted village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A deathly silence hung over the deserted village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, two figures slowly approached from outside the village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai looked up, surveying the dilapidated village, his gaze settling on its interior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not far off, Magistrate Li and the Dark Venerable Envoy stood side-by-side, studying Shen Bai and Qin Shuang in turn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’ve finally come,\" Magistrate Li sneered. \"Today, it’s time we settled the score between us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai and Qin Shuang exchanged a glance and walked toward the village.\u003C\u002Fp>",1123,"2026-06-03T14:13:27.146Z","2026-06-03T14:13:33.432Z",1,"novelbin.me","1b0232acaf50733551ed81e258c5fc5d8dd3e1c0673e1ceba54e0af636361197","i-can-extract-divine-power-chapter-93","i-can-extract-divine-power-chapter-91",322,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-can-extract-divine-power-cover.jpg"]
