Chapter 4 is not so simple

  Thieves and bandits are under the jurisdiction of the Zhongjing Prefecture, with constables and patrol officers responsible for their capture. However, matters involving supernatural or paranormal phenomena fall within the purview of the Zhongjing Taoist Temple. The temple has set up a network of magical arrays throughout the city, allowing them to be informed of any unusual occurrences at all times. Upon receiving such information, Taoist priests will be dispatched to investigate. Demons and monsters can only move about in human form, otherwise they would be detected and immediately eliminated.

  After the black wolf was shot dead, it revealed its true form. When a demon transforms, its demonic energy surges violently, and it seems that someone from the Taoist temple has discovered this.

  Gao Feng knew the rules, he didn't make any moves, he just said loudly:

  "The Zhongjing Prefecture's Capture Squad is led by Zhang Gaofeng, pursuing the notorious thief Hei Lang in this very place!"

  After finishing speaking, he slowly raised his waist card, with the front facing upwards. As expected, after raising his waist card for a moment, there was a rustling sound above his head, and three people fell down in front of him. These three people were all around thirty years old, wearing cyan Taoist robes, with a sword hanging from their waists. Seeing such attire, Gao Feng knew that the other party were the most basic Taoist priests from the Taoist temple.

  A Taoist nodded to Gao Feng, and the other two went to look at the black wolf's corpse. After they finished looking, they quickly turned back, and the three of them whispered a few words to each other. When they faced Gao Feng again, their attitude was much more polite. One of them spoke up:

  "It turned out that the demon's true spirit had dissipated, revealing its true form. No wonder the demonic aura could be detected. Was this monster killed by Gao Que Zheng?"

  "It's true, the Zhongjing Prefecture received a tip that the fugitive was hiding here, but beforehand we didn't know he was a demon, or else we would have invited the Daoist priests from the Daoist temple to assist us!"

  "This demon can transform into a human form, it's not ordinary, don't know what High Team is doing..."

  A Taoist priest had just spoken halfway when he was pulled down by another person and whispered in his ear:

  "Take a closer look at this team's morale and observe their spirit."

  Can a demon transform into a human form? It's a benchmark of the demon's strength. The Taoist who asked didn't believe that Gao Feng had such an ability and thought there must be some hidden reason behind it. What can the team leader of the Zhongjing Prefecture do to kill such a powerful demon?

  He was being questioned, and when his companion reminded him, he was stunned for a moment. He looked intently at Gao Feng, but found that this young man was different. Although he was only twenty years old, and the clothes on his body were tattered, he was as steady as a mountain. Upon closer inspection, he had an air of grandeur, making people involuntarily look up to him.

  This demeanor is extraordinary, it's not something that an ordinary squad leader can have. The Taoist who asked the question hastily changed his attitude and politely said:

  "Gao team is able to kill this demon with just one move, it seems that he has already reached the realm of 'battle skills', truly impressive!"

  Before Gao Feng could answer, another Taoist on the side suddenly thought of something and interrupted to ask:

  "What relationship does Gao Que have with the Marquis of Fenyang's family?"

  Gao Feng paused for a moment before speaking:

  "It was a clan."

  He didn't want to say more about this, but the attitude of those Taoist priests became noticeably more respectful, with one of them even praising:

  "As expected, a noble family with a rich heritage. Congratulations to High Official Gao for achieving this merit! The Ministry will issue an official document tomorrow to verify it. We'll have to trouble High Official Gao to handle the procedures then. We bid you farewell for now!"

  This is indeed in line with their judgment, a team of ordinary people can't do much, but if they are from the Imperial Clan, it's different, maybe they are young masters of noble families, coming to the Metropolitan Procuratorate Catching Team just for practice, such things are not uncommon in the capital.

  In the capital, there was such a case where the Taoist temple and the Central Capital Prefecture had to issue documents to each other. This was also an official procedure. Gao Feng hastily agreed, and the three of them bid farewell with courtesy. Then they chanted their spells, their Taoist robes shone brightly, the wind rustled, and several people rose into the air, flying away quickly.

  As long as you enter the Zhongjing Taoist Temple, no matter how you practice, you can use the law to rely on the formation method in the city to fly. This makes the capture of the Zhongjing Prefecture very envious, they want to come and go quickly, but can only ride horses.

  As the three Taoists left, Gao Feng's attention returned to himself. He vividly remembered the immense pain and near-death experience when he was shot by an arrow. How did this change occur? And what about that familiar phrase "Come on up..."? Just as he was puzzled, he heard a noise behind him.

  Gao Feng turned his head to look, and it was that catcher Liu Tou, standing at the door looking around. When he saw Gao Feng standing there, he let out a "ah" and turned to run away. Although it was deep in the night, Gao Feng clearly saw that Liu Tou's expression initially showed schadenfreude, but after discovering Gao Feng, it changed to shock and fear.

  When they rushed in, none of the constables followed up. When Hei Lang walked over, he said something like "useless" and "troublemaker". Not to mention that after engaging with him, Gao Feng realized that such a powerful thief was not something a constable team could handle. Such a mysterious person would not be known by an ordinary constable captain. His changing expression was further proof that this matter was too suspicious.

  Don't mention anything else, fleeing in panic and leaving oneself to die, this Liu is a scoundrel!

  Think too much, Gao Feng's movements didn't slow down at all. Now his body has undergone a drastic change compared to before. Although Liu Tou ran extremely fast, Gao Feng was even faster. With a burst of force from his feet, he took a stride that spanned over ten feet. Gao Feng clearly hadn't fully adapted to this transformation yet and lost control of his direction, crashing into the wall by the door, causing it to collapse. By the second step, he had already caught up to Liu Tou's back and grabbed him with one hand.

  Liu didn't expect the other party to catch up with him in two steps, and he was already panicked. Subconsciously, he wanted to draw his knife, but Gao Feng was not polite at all. He directly grabbed the fat man and swung him around, causing Liu's knife to slip out of his hand and fall to the ground. Gao Feng then flung him again, throwing him straight into the courtyard.

  Fat and big Liu head flew over with a loud crash, heavily fell into the courtyard, and was knocked to the ground, unable to get up for a while. Gao Feng took a deep breath and was about to walk back when he heard a mournful cry coming from inside the courtyard.

  He rushed over to take a look, but found that although Liu's head couldn't get up, he was struggling and crawling towards the other side. Coincidentally, where he had just fallen was exactly where the black wolf's corpse lay. In the dark of night, seeing such a large wolf head and a headless wolf body would scare anyone into a cold sweat.

  Just a few steps later, Gao Feng had already entered the yard, grabbed his collar and lifted him up, coldly smiling as he asked:

  "Brother Liu, why are you running away after seeing me? Did you think I was already dead and just saw a ghost..."

  "No... no... I saw someone from the Daoist temple coming over, wanting to come over..."

  Gao Feng directly threw him heavily onto the ground, and he was so stunned that he couldn't utter a word. Then, in a stern voice, he asked:

  "Liu Yong, this case, what's going on with the arrest tonight? You'd better explain it clearly to me. Otherwise, do you think your neck is thicker or the wolf's neck is thicker?"
