Chapter 43 - Scene of the Crime

On this night, Zhang Yang walked on the streets of a bustling city. If there was a practitioner who focused and looked closely, they would find a spherical, transparent gas surrounding him with a radius of approximately one meter.
This is the result of Zhang Yang's practice of "Silence of All Sounds". Within the range covered by his spiritual power, all things are revealed without any omission. He can even sense clearly whether the girl passing by him is wearing a bra or not.
Of course, Zhang Yang didn't come out today specifically to see this.
Recently, he has been practicing for more than a month and feels that his strength has greatly increased, completely consolidating that ethereal and powerless feeling. He has even opened up two more spiritual veins in the "Meditation of the Void" series, without even needing to consume spiritual elixirs.
The method of sealing the spiritual veins in "Silence of All Sounds" can now be adeptly applied. In an instant, all spiritual energy within the body can be concealed, unless it is a cultivator whose strength significantly exceeds one's own, it is difficult to detect.
Regarding the method of detecting the entanglement of aura, due to the insufficient amount of spiritual power, even when exerting full force, it can barely cover a space with a radius of about one meter. Moreover, the consumption of spiritual energy for this method is extremely high, and currently, Zhang Yang can only maintain it for thirty minutes.
In "The Silent Night", it is said that someone with strong power can extend their spiritual energy to a radius of tens or even hundreds of meters with just a thought. However, at this moment, Zhangyang's power is still relatively weak and far from reaching such a level.
Even without using the winding detection method, with the perception of spiritual power, Zhang Yang can sense the presence of people or objects within a radius of ten meters. However, the investigation is rough and may be inaccurate, but it is sufficient for ordinary situations.
"The 'Attack and Defense Tactics' is not a difficult spiritual technique to cultivate, nor is it divided into levels. With the help of two bottles of azure spiritual fluid, one can easily open up all the spiritual veins and operate the spiritual power on the meridians of fists and feet. With a confident punch, even an iron plate can be deformed."
Up to now, Zhang Yang's cultivation can be considered to have come to an end. Coming out tonight, the main purpose is to investigate the Chop Head Place.
This grudge of chopping heads has not yet been avenged. Zhang Yang's current strength is incomparable to the past, with his confidence soaring. If he encounters that person again, he will definitely press him to the ground and rub him hard.
Turned a corner and came to that alley, before even entering, could hear the screams and pleas of a girl, the shouts and wailing of a boy.
Zhang Yang frowned upon hearing this, silently jumped onto a nearby roof, and looked down.
A group of tall and strong men were seen beating a young boy on the ground with their fists and feet. Another person pushed a girl against the wall and was tearing her clothes, seemingly preparing to commit an indecent act.
These people look familiar, they are the ones who fought with Zhang Yang at the gym that day.
The boy seemed to have caught them in the act of harassing a girl, without fear, he stood up and was then mobbed by the crowd.
A boy was pressed to the ground, being beaten helplessly, with blood flowing from his mouth. He was breathing out more than breathing in, and it wouldn't be long before he lost his life.
Zhang Yang, upon seeing this scene, had a frosty expression on his face. These students, relying on their wealthy and influential families, were truly worse than animals. He thought to himself, if it weren't for Chang Le and Shen Yue intervening that day, his fate would only be more miserable than this boy's.
Since he was caught by himself, Zhang Yang decided to teach their parents a lesson, but he felt it was not appropriate to jump down immediately.
If they recognize him, there may be all kinds of troubles coming to him. As they say, it's easy to avoid a visible weapon but hard to guard against a hidden arrow. If he casually kills them in the Spirit Realm, it would be a clean sweep. But in the real world, it is illegal to kill, and Zhang Yang does not want to ruin his life because of a few clownish characters.
With a flash of inspiration, Zhangyang reached into his pocket and pulled out a transformation card. After injecting a bit of spiritual energy, the card instantly turned into a bright light, enveloping him.
As the spiritual technique took effect, his youthful face gradually transformed into a weathered countenance, with furrowed brows, slightly graying hair, and a stubble of rugged beard. It seemed as if his face hadn't been cared for in a long time, giving him a very disheveled appearance.
At the same time, the throat began to swell and protrude, feeling itchy. Breathing became long and deep, and it seemed that the voice became heavy.
Zhang Yang didn't know what he looked like after the change, but he felt very strange. When the transformation was complete, he jumped out without hesitation and shouted, "Son of a bitch, let go of that girl!"
Everyone suddenly saw a middle-aged man who seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, and they all paused, unknowingly stopping their actions.
The person pulling the girl was Jin Siyang. Seeing someone else coming to interrupt, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, and he cursed, "Is it so difficult to find a normal girl to play with instead of those girls from the club? Damn it, they are coming one by one to interfere!"
"This short, pathetic, poor uncle, have the sense to leave immediately, otherwise the next person lying on the ground will be you," one person said.
"Yes, think about your old mother at home, as well as your hungry little child. If you die, they will have to drink northwest wind," another person echoed.
Hearing the two people cursing at each other, Zhang Yang became so angry that he clenched his fists and said, "Damn it, a bunch of little bastards speaking such foul language. Today, I'll play the role of your parents and give you a good teaching so that you'll know how to behave like human beings!"
It seemed like those three words, "short, ugly, and poor," hit him right in the sore spot and made him genuinely angry.
Jin Siyang, in his extreme anger, laughed sarcastically and threw the girl to the ground, menacingly saying, "You ungrateful thing, fine! Today, I've changed my mind. If I can't have a girl, I'll have you. I'll make you unrecognizable, so much so that even your mother won't recognize you. My surname won't be Jin."
Between their conversation, they exchanged a knowing glance to the crowd.
Ignoring the girl who covered her face and ran away, the crowd reached into their pockets and pulled out glimmering daggers, their expressions turning hostile as they surrounded Zhang Yang.
Before the crowd could even attack, Zhang Yang was the first to strike. With a series of crisp bone-snapping sounds, the crowd found themselves suspended mid-air, realizing that they had been thrown and that their arms holding the daggers had been twisted one hundred and eighty degrees.
At once, screams filled the air.
Seeing this, Jin Siyang's face changed slightly, without a word, he turned and fled.
Zhang Yang, at this moment, how could he let him escape alone, with a few flashes, he chased after.
Not long after, the sound of desperate screams could be heard in the distance, sending chills down the spine and tears streaming down the listener's face.
......
On the rooftop of a nearby tall building, there was a delicate figure sitting there.
That figure is dressed in a sailor uniform, with a black windbreaker on top. Her long black hair falls loosely behind her waist, and she stands next to a black longsword.
At this moment, she is holding a red apple in her hand, eating it greedily, while watching everything happening in the alley intently.
When she saw the group of Jin Siyang beating up the boy, almost killing him, she remained unmoved and continued to eat her apple, but when she saw Zhang Yang suddenly appear and drive the crowd away, she stopped biting the apple and her eyebrows creased slightly.
