Chapter 7 Killing Officer Guo: The Opportunity Has Arrived
"You bastard, you dare to betray me!"
Upon hearing the sound of approaching, Constable Guo shouted and drew his long sword from his waist.
"Clang!"
The female corpse pressed her palms against the long sword, which was as hard as metal, and sparks flew from the point of contact with the sword.
Guo, the head constable, stumbled back several steps before regaining his balance, his eyes filled with cold killing intent as he looked at Xu Yan.
He was actually tricked by a coroner!
Moreover, this coroner actually possessed such skills.
"I'm going to skin you alive!"
Guo, the head constable, tried to pounce on Xu Yan.
Before he could make a move, the female corpse attacked again, with a sharp gust of wind, trying to bite Guo the constable's neck.
"Get out of here!"
Guo, the head constable, swung his long sword, and a chilling blade of energy shot out, striking the female corpse in the chest.
The female corpse was struck, her chest a bloody mess.
Before Officer Guo could make a move, the woman's abdomen suddenly split open.
A bloody, mangled fetus appeared and wrapped itself around Guo the Constable's long knife.
A chilling aura emanated from him, but Constable Guo merely snorted coldly.
"How dare these mere evil spirits act so presumptuously!"
The blade emanated an even more chilling aura.
The bloodied and mangled fetus screamed in agony, as it was severed in two by the blade's energy.
This was the first time Xu Yan had heard the word "evil spirit," but he had seen descriptions of evil spirits before when he swept the gavel.
He didn't know what evil spirits were, and now was not the time to delve into it.
To prevent others from knowing the truth, Officer Guo sent all the constables far away.
But the fighting was so loud that constables were already on their way.
"Time is a bit tight."
Xu Yan glanced at the female corpse and found that she was actually at a disadvantage under the sword aura of Constable Guo.
Without hesitation, he raised his hand and pointed.
The corpse demon hidden within his body shot out and struck Constable Guo's wrist.
Corpse Fiend is a reward extracted from the Corpse-Dissolving Knife. Anyone afflicted by Corpse Fiend will suffer from rotting flesh and unbearable pain.
"what!"
Guo, the head constable, screamed again.
The wrist that was struck by the Corpse Fiend was severely rotten, to the point that he could barely hold the knife.
The female corpse seized the opportunity and bit into Officer Guo's elbow.
"laugh--"
Like the sound of tearing cloth, Guo, the head constable, had his right arm severed at the elbow, and blood splattered all over the ground.
"You want me to die? I want you to die first!"
Guo, the head constable, revealed a ruthless look on his face. He gritted his teeth, held the knife in his left hand, shook the female corpse aside, and charged towards Xu Yan.
At this moment, in addition to his severed arm, signs of decay were also appearing in his chest and abdomen.
He knew he didn't have long to live, but before he died, he wanted to kill Xu Yan.
With his last ounce of strength, Guo the constable ignored the woman's bites and, wielding his long sword, slashed down at Xu Yan's head.
With the force of this strike, that bastard is surely dead!
Xu Yan stared at the falling longsword, and should have been extremely flustered.
However, the circulation of the Xuanpin Qi within his body kept his mind as calm as ice.
Everything seemed to slow down incredibly.
Xu Yan raised his right hand, clenched it into a fist, and struck at Guo the constable's wrist.
The flow of the Xuanpin Qi flowed to his right fist, increasing the speed and power of his punch to a whole new level.
He didn't understand boxing, but Officer Guo was already at his last gasp.
If he were an ordinary person, he might have died.
But he is not.
"Bang!"
A dull thud sounded, and Guo the Constable's long sword flew out of his hand.
Xu Yan seized the opportunity and punched Guo, the head constable, in the chest.
"puff!"
Officer Guo was sent flying backward, his face filled with terror: "Impossible! How could you possess such strength!"
He never expected that a mere coroner would be hiding his true abilities.
Before he could speak, his back bumped into something.
Guo, the head constable, subconsciously looked up and saw a face that was extremely cold and sinister.
"No, don't kill me!"
Guo, the head constable, begged for mercy in terror.
The female corpse opened her mouth and bit down on Guo the constable's neck.
Blood was splattered on the ground, and yin energy flowed into it.
Guo, the head constable, tried to struggle, but to no avail; his strength only waned.
After it stopped moving, it turned into a corpse.
"Whoosh!"
The constables pushed open the door and witnessed this scene, and they were all stunned.
They never expected that another zombie outbreak would occur here, and that Officer Guo would actually die.
"Stop her!"
A constable drew his long sword and confronted the female corpse.
Upon hearing this, the other constables all drew their weapons, intending to surround the female corpse.
But at that moment, the female corpse transformed into a blur and burst through the window, disappearing in a few leaps.
Seeing this scene, Xu Yan thought to himself, "The hatred remains unresolved, and the resentment has not dissipated."
The aura of a vengeful spirit will only dissipate after the grudge is avenged.
As for who his enemy was, Xu Yan knew very well.
The only person who could use money to control Constable Guo was Master Wang, a wealthy merchant from Anping County.
But that's not something he should be thinking about right now.
"Coroner Xu, what exactly happened?"
One of the constables asked.
The female corpse had vanished without a trace, and the constables did not continue the pursuit, as the scene before them was simply too gruesome.
Xu Yan had already prepared a set of excuses.
"I was performing an autopsy when the body suddenly changed and a fight broke out with Officer Guo. Officer Guo was no match for her and was killed by the female corpse."
"What you'll see next is what you're about to see."
The constables fell silent, and the room became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Previously, a corpse had risen from the dead in the county government office; after the corpse took its revenge, it would return to its original state.
Now that Chen Linshi's corpse has turned into a zombie, and she only killed Guo, the reason for this can be understood with a little thought.
"Clean this place up first, then take Officer Guo's body back."
The constable who spoke first said.
Once the constable spoke, the others didn't waste any more words.
This is currently the best way to handle it.
Xu Yan was just a coroner; he didn't say much, nor did he do anything conspicuous at this time.
The scene was quickly cleaned up.
Xu Yan's gaze would occasionally fall on the long sword, and after glancing at it, he would turn back to the corpse of Constable Guo.
Two lines of smoke appeared and condensed into words.
[Standard Long Sword]
[Hidden Information: A small amount of sword intent (can slightly improve swordsmanship)]
[Extraction condition: Swing this knife 100 times]
……
[The Corpse of the Mystic Warrior]
[Hidden Information: Three Blades of Breaking the Qi (A secret martial arts cultivation method that transforms true qi into qi that can break through evil spirits and suppress enemies)]
[Extraction Requirements: Identification of the deceased]
……
The two pieces of information came from the long knife and the corpse of Constable Guo, respectively.
The information about the long sword was already available before, and now there is also information about the corpse.
"We need to find a way to get our hands on these two things."
Xu Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, already having made up his mind.
……
yamen.
Inside the main hall, Magistrate Zhang sat in a chair, his face ashen.
Two rows of constables, each holding a stern warning baton, all bowed their heads and stared at the ground, not daring to utter a single word.
"Snapped!"
A dull sound broke the silence.
Magistrate Zhang spoke in a low voice, slamming his gavel: "Coroner Xu, examine the body first. I want to see where this evil spirit came from!"
Xu Yan raised an eyebrow slightly.
Autopsy?
Isn't this the opportunity?
