Chapter 392
392 New Year Xu: I keep meeting lunatics today (2)
However, wouldn’t that mean that Luo Yuheng of the human sect would definitely lose?
Xu Qi ‘an didn’t care about Luo Yuheng’s chances of winning. He understood what Wei Yuan meant. If this battle between the disciples wasn’t handled properly, the Dao leaders of the celestial sect and the human sect would fight to the death.
Rank one and rank two were the pinnacle of combat power in the world. Even the wise Wei Yuan did not dare to be careless. Even the most powerful person in the capital, Jian Zheng, was only a rank one.
“Lord Wei, there’s something I haven’t told you.” Xu Qi ‘an planned to report the inside story of the Heaven and Earth Society.
Wei Yuan nodded and didn’t speak.
“That Li Miao is a member of the heaven and earth Association and is in charge of the second fragment. And the disciple sent by the human sect should be the number one swordsman in the capital that you’ve evaluated.” Xu Qi ‘an reported.
This news was beyond Wei Yuan’s expectations. He left the geomancy map and returned to the table.”Tell me properly.”
Xu Qi ‘an immediately retold the chat history of the Earth Book chat group from last night.
“Your information is very timely.” Wei Yuan nodded approvingly.
The reason why he “doted” on this Gong was very complicated. There were many factors. First, it was his character, which meant that his character was trustworthy and guaranteed. The second was talent, and the talent Xu Qi ‘an had shown was worthy of his cultivation.
Then there was his personality, which was different from his personality. Xu Qi ‘an’s personality was very pragmatic. He was smart, slick, and knew how to flatter and flatter, but he had his own principles.
Finally, he was always able to surprise Wei Yuan. Whether it was solving cases or gathering intelligence, he had always been showing his usefulness to Wei Yuan.
Wei Yuan was glad that this wasn’t a useless sapling that needed his care and support.
There was a clear difference between him and those clan geniuses who were extremely talented but had terrible ability to do things.
“Try your best to cooperate with Daoist priest Golden Lotus.” Wei Yuan said without thinking.
Seeing Xu Qi ‘an’s confusion, he explained, “”Golden Lotus established the heaven and earth Association to search for the wielder of the Book of the Earth’s fragments in all parts of nine regions. The original intention was to clean up the sect and eliminate the demonic Dao leaders.”
Xu Qi ‘an nodded. He was the one who had told Wei Yuan about the Golden Lotus’s motive.
then, he definitely won’t let the wielder of the book of the nether world’s fragment die. He’ll try his best to mediate. However, he’s from the earth sect, which has always maintained a neutral stance. It’s not convenient for them to interfere directly, so they’ll most likely seek your help.
“What can I help you with? hehe …” Xu Qi ‘an’s smile gradually stiffened.
Wei Yuan didn’t know what happened to his subordinate, little Gong, in The Earth Book chat group, so he didn’t care about the change in Xu Qi ‘an’s expression. He said, ”
“The Western religious sect is also about to reach the capital.”
Xu Qi. an was stunned. How did Wei Yuan know that the Western religious sect was coming to the capital … He immediately understood that the Western religious sect’s large group would not visit the great Feng capital so abruptly.
This was like the meeting between the heads of two countries. They had to inform in advance and make an appointment.
“The spring hunt, the Western religious sect, and the conflict between heaven and man … It’s hard to handle.” Xu Qi ‘an’s heart was heavy.
At this moment, the sound of gongs and drums suddenly came from downstairs, along with faint shouts, “”The water’s coming, the water’s coming …”
It was on fire?
Xu Qi ‘an had been a night watchman for half a year, but this was the first time he had encountered such a situation. The next moment, his heart sank, and he had a bad feeling.
“Wei, Lord Wei, I’ll take my leave first …”
He quickly got up, cupped his fists, and rushed out of the noble spirit building in a panic. Looking around for a moment, he found that the clerks and night watchmen were carrying water buckets and rushing madly in the direction of spring breeze Hall.
………
Fifteen minutes later, the fire was put out by a golden gong on duty in the Yamen. Spring breeze Hall was burned down and turned into scorched ruins. Fortunately, no one was injured or killed.
Jin Gong was very angry and ordered the night watchmen to investigate the reason for the escape.
In a secluded courtyard, Zhong Li squatted on the ground with her hair burnt. Her linen robe had a few holes burnt through it, revealing her delicate skin.
“I was fine in the house, but. don’t know why it caught fire. I might have been cooked by the time you were late …” She said with lingering fear.
“You’re a fifth-grade Warlock, how can mere mortal Fire hurt you?”
“I was meditating just now, and something went wrong with my Qi channeling,” Zhong Li said.
“……..”
“I’ll take you to take a bath and change your clothes first,” Xu Qian said.
……..
At dusk, Xu niannian, who had finished the first general examination, left the examination hall. He followed the students out of the gate and came to the street. He turned around and looked around for a moment, only to find that his parents, brother, and sister had not come to pick him up.
“Father and big brother should still be on duty, so it’s not convenient for mother and sister to travel alone …” Xu Erlang comforted himself.
He carried the bookcase and planned to walk back to the mansion. He didn’t forget to cast a buff on himself. He patted his thigh lightly and his courage shook as he chanted, ”
“As light as a swallow!”
An invisible force wrapped around him, and as he walked, it was as if he had the help of the wind. He was no slower than the carriage.
“As light as a swallow!” Suddenly, someone in front laughed.
Xu niannian stopped in his tracks and looked toward the source of the sound. A swordsman in a green robe with a sword on his back was standing on the side of the street. He was handsome and unruly. He looked very young, but the strands of white hair hanging down from his forehead showed the vicissitudes of life he had experienced.
Without waiting for Xu niannian to speak, the green-robed swordsman laughed and said, “”The first round of the spring examination has ended. According to my habit back then, I will go to the academy to drink and celebrate with my classmates for the next three days.
“That was nine years ago. I think the courtesans of that time were already old and frail, or had found a good man. I’ve heard that the education workshop of the capital has produced a top courtesan who’s skilled in both poetry and zither, and her reputation has spread throughout all the provinces. I want to see her.
“Brother, why don’t we go together?”
Xu niannian listened quietly and only one thought came to his mind.This person was a fool.
That familiar tone made it seem as if they were very familiar with each other. And, and she even winked at him … However, Xu Xinyi was absolutely certain that he did not know this guy at all.
What’s going on today?. met a strange monk before. entered the arena, and then I met a stupid swordsman after. entered the arena … Xu niannian ignored him and ran away quickly.
Boys had to protect themselves outside.
……..
In the afterglow of the setting sun, the red glow hung on the horizon. Xu Qi ‘an brought Zhong Li to the Imperial Academy.
I wonder if Fu Xiang’s illness has been cured. In this era, women are weak and often get infected with the cold wind.
Xu Qi ‘an was about to bring Zhong Li over to see Fu Xiang and give her a definite diagnosis.
Zhong Li was still wearing a linen robe. After the shower, her hair was a mess and it covered her face.
Xu Qi ‘an guessed that she was an ugly woman or had some scars on her face, so she didn’t show her real face.
