This was not because he was cruel but because high-level martial cultivators have exceptionally monstrous regenerative abilities, and if Duan Pengxuan had mastered some incredible secret technique, he might come back to life the next moment.
He then looked up at the titanium-gold war dragon and found that the war dragon was standing motionless in its original place.
Once Duan Pengxuan was dead, this titanium-gold war dragon, which hadn’t developed self-awareness, although still ‘alive,’ might as well have been dead.
A complete titanium-gold war dragon was of immense value; its body could be extracted for ‘Dragon’s Source Essence,’ an important raw material used by the Earth Federation to cultivate ‘Armored War Dragons.’
Lin Rui then turned his head and looked menacingly in the direction of the demonic dragon.
He was always one to eradicate evil; now that Duan Pengxuan was dead, it was time for this demonic dragon to meet its end as well.
However, when he looked over, the demonic dragon had already escaped without a trace through another fork in the path.
...
Mr.
Du and Professor Han had also left.

Both of them were quasi-Sixth Realm experts, with escape skills as swift as the wind and lightning, disappearing thousands of yards away in an instant.
Only Zhang Chen and a few people from the Wang City Government Office were left at the scene, their expressions somewhat awkward as they looked towards him.
Lin Rui then looked at Blood Blade Ji next to him.

Although Ji Xueying’s face was still somewhat pale, the blood vessels and tendons in her eyes had not completely receded, and her vital energy and True Yuan were recovering quickly.
This was the effect of Blood Core Frenzy, boosting Ji Xueying’s recovery and endurance to at least six times that of a normal Blood Blade.
Just now, Duan Pengxuan managed to break through Ji Xueying’s blade curtain by using his Sixth Realm Super King Secret Blade to unleash rapid consecutive slashes, temporarily exceeding the recovery ability of Blood Core Frenzy.
Ultimately, it was still a matter of insufficient cultivation.
If Ji Xueying had been in the late stages of the Fifth Realm, Duan Pengxuan would have had no way to break through her blade defense.
However, Lin Rui still suppressed the thought of having Ji Xueying pursue the attack.
Lin Rui had his reasons for wanting to eliminate Duan Pengxuan, repeatedly provoking him with words, forcing Duan Pengxuan to take action.
The first objective was to resolve the threat for people like Professor Han; Duan Pengxuan had been targeting them for a long time, and who knows what evidence and information he still held.
It was best to kill him now to avoid any future complications.
The second objective was to firmly seal the case of Duan Pengxuan’s assassination and rebellion.
The case was actually very troublesome to investigate, and delving too deep might backfire, as everything they had done in the dungeons of Wang City could not be guaranteed to leave no trace.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Chen seemed to have an epiphany, and turned his head to exchange a look with Zhang Zhili beside him.
He understood Lin Rui’s hint, only by nailing Duan Pengxuan’s case could they be exonerated; only by implicating their so-called ‘benefactor’ and the Chief Commander could they get them to acquiesce, leaving them no power to seek revenge.
“——Additionally, regarding all information and evidence about that team of Heavenly Demons led by Professor Han from outside our domain, you must also deliver it to our Wang City Government Office as soon as possible.”
Lin Rui turned his head, looking towards the direction where Professor Han had departed, his eyes filled with a chilling resolve: “There’s something very wrong with these demons from beyond our realm, I must investigate and eliminate them thoroughly!”
“This subordinate obeys!” Zhang Chen responded without hesitation, bowing, “When I return, I’ll immediately send all the files pertaining to the Heavenly Demon case to Wang City Government Office!”
He felt that this case was now a hot potato, and the Inspecting Censor’s office of their Sha State might not be able to spare the manpower or resources to investigate it thoroughly in the short term.
Lin Rui nodded in satisfaction, “This Titanium Gold Blade Dragon is also evidence, as well as the Magic Artifacts on Qin Yan and his apprentices, are important pieces of evidence.
I would also trouble you to send them to the rear office of Wang City Government Office.”
He then re-entered the hall with Blood Blade Ji, feigning a thorough inspection of the surroundings.
His brows furrowed deeper, his eyes reflecting profound confusion, as if wondering who had taken the items from this hall?
Was it the fleeing demon dragon?
Or that Professor Han?
Or perhaps the deceased Duan Pengxuan and Zhou Changgong?
After a while, he walked into the “storage room”, caressing the wall with his hand as he moved along it, attentively sensing.
At that moment, Lin Rui’s figure suddenly halted, his eyes widening, his face turning ashen with rage as he bellowed, “These demons from beyond our realm, dare to scheme against Lin?!”
He whirled around, with Blood Blade Ji beside him, they sprinted rapidly out of the underground palace, their forms swift as the wind, dashing out several miles in an instant.
Zhang Chen and the others were in the process of packaging the Titanium Gold Blade Dragon, intending to bind the battle dragon with ropes and drag it to Wang City Government Office.
They heard Lin Rui’s roar and saw the figure of the Defense Official darting far away, all showing bewildered expressions.
After a brief contemplation, Zhang Chen also returned to the “storage room” on the left side of the hall and began to scrutinize the walls closely.
Shortly after, his expression subtly changed as he thought to himself, so that’s how it is.
“What’s the matter?” At that moment, Zhang Zhili also came inside from outside, his eyes showing confusion, “Why is Lord Lin so alarmed and angry?”
“This wall seems to have been built recently, the disguise is quite convincing.”
Zhang Chen struck the wall forcefully with a hammer, and cracks appeared upon the surface.
He let out a wry smile, “It seems that those Heavenly Demons from outside our domain must have dug a tunnel from the outside, taking everything here with them.
We, as well as Lord Duan and Lord Lin the Defense Official, have all fallen for their malicious plot.”
Zhang Zhili’s complexion fluctuated between shades of pale and flushed, then he let out a sigh.
He turned his head towards the outside, guessing that Lin Rui must have gone after Professor Han, and after such a delay, he wondered if he could still catch up?
