He also took the opportunity, went to the other side, tore off the car door, and dragged out the already unconscious driver.
In the distance, the driver of the small car that had turned around at the intersection got out, his face pale with fright, because he saw that the other car had started to catch fire.
Seeing that the man walked out on his own, and even rescued soone else, the small car driver finally breathed a slight sigh of relief, and only then rembered to hurry over and help save people.
The small car driver t the man’s cold, indifferent gaze and involuntarily shivered, but didn’t think much of it—if he were in the man’s place, he’d want to kill soone too.
Soon, soone ca to deal with the accident and direct traffic.
The man, expressionless and with indifferent eyes, went to the hospital alongside the driver; before long, another person arrived and took the man away.
Half an hour later, surveillance footage from the intersection appeared in the Scorching Sun Departnt.
Unfortunately, the local Scorching Sun Departnt had average capabilities, outdated equipnt, few staff, and didn’t even have independent offices, just a few borrowed rooms from other units.
They noticed sothing off about the footage at the intersection, but couldn’t do anything about it, nor could they perform high-definition video restoration.
But since no one had died yet, and it was just an accident, this footage could only be classified as potentially problematic and sent up the chain.
It wasn’t until a whole day later that the Scorching Sun Departnt staff got around to processing the standard queue of videos; after processing, it was roughly visible that the person in the front passenger seat suddenly turned into a black armored figure, bracing himself with both arms and forcibly blocking the impact—but only a few fras in the footage captured this.
The restored footage was filed under the category of suspected Professionals.
But right after it was entered into the central database, the system’s automated checks triggered an alert.
"Highly suspected Sacred Fire Sect War Soul."
The information was imdiately reported up, and at the sa ti, a pop-up appeared on a staff mber’s computer at headquarters.
Sothing highly suspected of being a Sacred Fire Sect War Soul had appeared in Western Region County.
At the sa ti, linked information popped up as well.
The Sacred Fire Sect’s forr grounds had recently experienced an earthquake, with several areas collapsing and sinking.
Linked personnel information quickly appeared with it.
Who was involved in the crash, information about the unconscious driver.
The internal staff’s expression changed; he imdiately pressed the call button, and while talking, operated the keyboard with both hands, pulling up more records.
Five minutes later, Qin Kun received the photos for confirmation.
Because in the records, Qin Kun had experience fighting the Sacred Fire Sect War Soul.
With just one glance, Qin Kun confird, that outfit was unmistakable—it was definitely it.
Half an hour later, the plane Qin Kun was on took off, heading straight for Western Region County.
Ever since it was confird on Fuyu Mountain that both the Sacred Fire Sect and the Demon Kingdom’s ancestral lands had disappeared—most likely, ninety-nine percent, fallen into the Netherworld—any related information had its priority increased.
The Scorching Sun Departnt’s resources were indeed limited, but once the priority was raised, the computational power allocated from the supercomputer was boosted a hundredfold at least—at the faintest clue, a swarm of related data would be dug out at once.
Orders began to co down to arrest those previously marked as suspected Sacred Fire Sect mbers.
Qin Kun went personally, trying to keep soone alive if possible.
They needed to figure out what exactly had happened.
Why had an ordinary person recorded in their files suddenly developed the power of the Sacred Fire Sect War Soul?
This person hadn’t shown any signs before, just an ordinary guy; the only thing odd was that before the accident, he received a hundred thousand yuan, but this money was, according to the records, a work commission from his workplace.
The boss and associated financial staff on that side had already been sent for questioning—if there were issues, they would be arrested.
But then, the man’s online shopping data was uncovered. Although he hadn’t used his own phone or na, and the parcel wasn’t picked up by him,
The person who collected the parcel knew him, and what was purchased online was a crossbow machine ornant.
And "crossbow machine" was now a keyword under close scrutiny.
This person had now disappeared from the hospital; local staff were dispatched to investigate, and sure enough, the crossbow machine had indeed been bought by this man.
People were imdiately sent to search his ho, and indeed, key items such as incense candles, scripture scrolls, and fine brushes were found.
Once all this information was collated, professionals from the Scorching Sun Departnt discussed it, and had no choice but to raise the priority again, preparing for the worst-case scenario.
This person had entered the Netherworld, and now possessed the Sacred Fire Sect War Soul’s power.
That left two possibilities.
One: he had obtained sothing from the Netherworld and had a way to bring things back from it.
Two: the Sacred Fire Sect in the Netherworld—their Sacred Fire War Souls had so way to descend in reverse.
They continued gathering information, asking many detailed questions to those involved in the car accident; the survivor repeatedly emphasized how terrifying the man’s eyes were.
Comparing the hospital’s surveillance footage, they could all tell that this person was entirely different from those who had known him before—it was a change of deanor, even his gaze was different.
The likelihood of the second possibility had already reached eighty percent, and the more supporting evidence they found, the higher that probability rose.
...
Wen Yan received the Long Talisman, his brows tightly knit.
The Fourth Great-uncle Master said that news had just co in: in the Netherworld, there might be Sacred Fire War Souls, and it was highly likely that they could perform an inverse descent and enter the present world.
The speculation was that, since there was already a Sacred Fire War Soul, there could well be more—in fact, the Sect Hierarch and King from the old days might both appear in the Netherworld.
