A quick half an hour passed, during which Chu Chen and the others closed their eyes to rest. The upcoming competition was crucial, and no one wanted to miss the Immortal Quality Beast Taming Egg.

Especially Dong Hanyang, who had come specifically for this Beast Taming Egg.

This half hour was a torment for him.

Zhang Fugui clapped his hands towards everyone and said, "The break is over. Next is the final. Now please follow me to the fifth floor for the competition." With that, he took the lead to the fifth floor.

The crowd dared not delay in the slightest and hurriedly followed.

When everyone reached the fifth floor, they were all stunned.

Because the place was already filled with shelves, numbering in the hundreds, which meant there were two thousand Beast Taming Eggs here.

Zhang Fugui smiled and said, "To ensure fairness, this place was personally arranged by Lord City Lord, and those Immortal Grade Beast Taming Eggs are among them. Even I don't know which one is the Immortal Level egg."

Everyone was shocked upon hearing this, not expecting that it was arranged by the City Lord himself.

However, considering the rarity of Immortal Quality Beast Taming Eggs, it made sense.

"Alright, I announce the commencement of the competition."

Upon hearing this, the ten people didn't hesitate in the slightest and directly rushed to the nearest shelf. Some chose to start searching from the middle shelves.

At this time, Jia Mingshan had already escaped Entertainment Street. He glanced back at the few people closely following him, his face turning ashen.

However, he knew full well that if he couldn't escape, he was sure to die.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but quicken his pace.

He dared not take the alleys, specifically choosing crowded streets to move through.

But having lived in luxury for years and being advanced in age, his stamina was not what it used to be; after just a dozen minutes, he was panting heavily.

At this moment, two burly men suddenly appeared on either side of Jia Mingshan.

Just as Jia Mingshan was about to call for help, he felt a sharp pain at his waist. Looking down, he saw a dagger glinting coldly pressed against his waist.

Jia Mingshan's face instantly turned pale, his legs went weak, unable to even stand.

"Come with us, or we'll kill you immediately." With that, the two burly men carried him away.

Jia Mingshan wept and pleaded, "Heroes, please spare my life. All my valuables are in the Spatial Bracelet; you can take everything."

The two men did not respond, just kept their heads down, hurrying on.

Meanwhile, several of Shi Huai'an's subordinates were closely following behind, fearing losing their target.

At this moment, Jia Mingshan realized that these two were not in league with the group behind.

His previously limp legs now gradually regained strength as he started cooperating with the two to hurry along.

With Jia Mingshan's cooperation, the speed of the three improved significantly.

The pair seemed extremely familiar with the area; they entered the Food Street, darting into a restaurant.

When the tails behind them followed in, the three had already slipped out the back door.

Shortly after, Jia Mingshan was brought to an empty alley.

The two burly men stopped once they confirmed no one was around.

Jia Mingshan leaned against the wall, gasping for breath, intermittently voicing words of gratitude.

"Thank you, brave sirs, for your help."

The two exchanged a glance upon hearing this, then proceeded to pull knives from their pockets.

Upon seeing this, Jia Mingshan's expression changed dramatically, and he hurriedly took off the Space Bracelet saying, "Spare my life, here is all my wealth, take it all."

"It's our payment; naturally, we'll take it." The brawny man took the Spatial Bracelet and sneered.

Jia Mingshan breathed a sigh of relief at this, but the next moment, he felt a piercing pain in his chest.

He clung tightly to the burly man's hand, incoherently asking, "Why...?"

"Hmph, don't you know what you've done?"

"You... were sent by Chu Chen."

The brawny man didn't respond and simply pulled the dagger out.

Jia Mingshan let out a scream and then went completely still.

The two rummaged through Jia Mingshan, and seeing he had no valuables, quickly left the alley.

Moments later, Shi Huai'an's subordinates finally arrived, their faces changing as they saw the lifeless Jia Mingshan.

Failing such a small task would surely lead to a reprimanding return.

At this moment, several people in black uniforms surrounded them.

"Who are you?"

"Heh, don't you recognize our uniforms?"

"You're from the Imperial Police Department."

"You have some insight. Since you appeared at the crime scene, come with us."

They showed an expression of fear when they heard this.

"He was already dead when I arrived; this has nothing to do with us."

"Whether it's related isn't for you to decide. I will investigate. If it truly has nothing to do with you, we won't trouble you."

A middle-aged man then recalled something, pointing at the Imperial Guardsmen saying, "You're in cahoots. Otherwise, how could you arrive just as we did?"

"Humph, you dare slander us, seize them all."

These individuals had been learning egg gambling under Shi Huai'an; with their skills, they were no match for the Imperial Police Department.

In just a few exchanges, they were all captured.

At this moment, the two burly men had already returned to Entertainment Street, blending into the crowd and quickly disappearing.

Inside an office on the second floor of the Cyan Dragon Gambling Egg Pavilion.

A middle-aged man watched the two vanish into the crowd, nodding with satisfaction.
