Chapter 189 Regret, Wanxiang Yuan GangAfter Liu Shijie, Yu Shenhai and others returned to the county town, Liu Shijie went directly back to the Liao family. Yu Shenhai took Li Mingfu and others back to the Demon Suppression Bureau. Wang Ming was carried by two city guards back to the City Guard Department. Along the way, Wang Ming cursed and swore, because three days later was the birthday of the city lord's daughter, and he planned to send a gift. Now that his legs were broken by Chen Xian, even if he took healing pills, they would not heal in three days. "Poor bastard, you're such a good pretender!" Wang Ming gritted his teeth and asked his subordinates to help him buy a low-grade healing pill to heal his leg bone first. …… City Lord's Mansion. Hu Dahu came back yesterday and gave the yellow straw paper he brought back from Liuquan Town to the chief protector Zhang Tong. The Chief Protector has reached the Great Accomplishment of the Jade Sea Realm, and is ranked among the top five in terms of cultivation strength in Fengyun County. The first is the city lord.
The second is the Chief of the Demon-Suppression Division, with an official rank of centurion. The third is the Chief of the City Guards, a member of the Liao family. The fourth is the leader of the Red Wolf Gang, who is a mysterious person. The fifth is Zhang Tong, the chief guard of the City Lord’s Mansion. He has no official position, but his status is more powerful than some of those with official positions. Zhang Tong looked at the indictment of Liu Shifu on the yellow straw paper, his expression becoming more and more serious: "Who wrote this?" Hu Dahu shook his head and said, "I don't know. They are posted everywhere in Liuquan Town. This guy has done a lot of evil things." Zhang Tong nodded: "If the evidence is true, it would not be excessive to execute his entire clan." After he finished speaking, he said in a deep voice: "The eldest lady asked you to go to Liuquan Town to find someone. How is your search going?" Hu Dahu grinned and said, "I finally found it. The young man is called Chen Xian. I gave him the invitation. Guess what he said?" Zhang Tong said nothing, just stared at Hu Dahu. Hu Dahu grinned and said, "This Mr. Chen is really arrogant. After reading the invitation, he directly said, 'Let's talk about it later. I'll go when I'm free.'" He spoke in the same tone and manner as Chen Xian. Zhang Tong nodded and smiled: "At his age, he has amazing talent and cultivation, so it's normal for him to be a little arrogant." Hu Dahu continued, "What happened next was really amazing. He returned to the town and massacred more than ninety people overnight..." Soon, he recounted the story of Chen Xian's murder in the town. Zhang Tong's expression immediately became extremely solemn when he heard this. "He didn't return the invitation to you?" Hu Dahu shook his head and said, "Without him, he accepted it!" Zhang Tong heard it and said, "It's broken!" Chen Xian killed so many people in the town, he is a murderer no matter what. How could the eldest daughter of the City Lord's Mansion make friends with a murderer?
He immediately hurried to find Miss Cheng. Cheng Ying, the eldest daughter of the Cheng family, is dressed in white clothes as white as snow and has skin as white as jade. Her appearance cannot be compared with Tang Can and Nangong Yan, and she is not as good as Chen Rong who has a pale face and muscles, but her temperament is quite outstanding, and she looks noble and charming. She was playing the piano in the garden and stopped when she saw Zhang Tong walking towards her quickly. "Is there anything wrong, Chief Protector Zhang?" Cheng Ying raised her head and asked with a cold look. Zhang Tong immediately told the story of Chen Xian's murder in Liuquan Town. Even Cheng Ying was shocked when she heard this: "How many people were killed?" "Ninety-seven." "hiss!" Cheng Ying took a deep breath. Her father was the mayor of the city, in charge of the entire Fengyun County. Someone had killed ninety-five people under her father's leadership. This was a major incident. She actually sent someone to deliver an invitation to a murderer. After thinking about it, Cheng Ying felt a headache and felt a little regretful. "What about the invitation...!?" she asked. "Then Chen Xian will take it!" Zhang Tong said. A hint of coldness flashed across Cheng Ying's eyes. "Forget it. June 1st is my birthday. He has killed so many people that he won't have the chance to come. You don't need to return the invitation." Zhang Tongdao: "Miss, what if he hasn't been arrested and comes with an invitation?" Cheng Ying said coldly: "We can't let him into the mansion, just say the invitation was sent to the wrong person." Zhang Tong nodded and said, "Yes, I will give the order right away." The next afternoon. The Demon Suppression Division immediately found the city lord, Cheng Guheng. Cheng Guheng was in his forties, with a square face, wide mouth, a moustache, droopy eyes and a prominent nose. The chief of the Demon Suppression Division is Liu Bingfeng, who is in his thirties and holds the rank of a centurion in the Demon Suppression Division. He serves as the chief of the Demon Suppression Division in the county town. He has an ordinary appearance, but his eyes are sharp. He came to Cheng Guheng not to seize the documents, but to ask for instructions and to argue. Chen Xian killed hundreds of people in Liuquan Town. He must let the city lord know about such a big thing, and his Demon Suppression Bureau cannot take all the responsibility. "what?" Cheng Guheng actually knew it a long time ago. His daughter had told him yesterday, but it had already happened. He was waiting for Liu Shifu to come to him, but Liu Shifu didn't come yet. He could only pretend that he knew nothing and wait for news from the Demon Suppression Bureau, so he acted very surprised, "When did it happen?" "It's been two days!" said Liu Bingfeng. Cheng Guheng was furious when he heard this: "Why are you saying this now?"
Liu Bingfeng smiled bitterly and said, "I just got the news this morning as well." Cheng Guheng was very angry when he heard this: "Although I can't control your Demon Suppression Division, you still have to cooperate with me in governing the county. Now that such a big thing has happened, your Demon Suppression Division is fully responsible." Liu Bingfeng was unhappy when he heard this: "Lord City Lord, what do you mean by the Monster Suppression Division is solely responsible? Shouldn't it be shared by you and me?" Cheng Guheng snorted coldly: "Your men had received the news a long time ago, why didn't they report it? And you still say that it's not the sole responsibility of the Demon Suppression Division?" Liu Bingfeng retorted: "With such a big incident and his son's death, Liu Shifu should have reported it to your City Lord's Mansion immediately. Why didn't he report it? Is he feeling guilty?" Cheng Guheng was speechless for a moment. He pondered and said, "Then what do you say we should do?" Liu Bingfeng said: "Capture the person first and share the loss." Cheng Guheng said upon hearing this: "That's the only way." Liu Bingfeng took out the arrest warrant and said, "Lord City Lord, please stamp it." Cheng Guheng hesitated for a moment and stamped his seal. This matter tied him down completely, and he would be responsible for any problems. Liu Bingfeng sneered: "As the city lord, you still have the mind to hesitate? If there is a problem, my demon suppression department will share the responsibility with you, which is already a concession." Cheng Guheng gritted his teeth and took out the City Lord's Mansion Jade Seal, stamped it on the arrest warrant, and urged Liu Bingfeng, "Go and arrest him quickly." Liu Bingfeng rolled up the arrest warrant, his lips slightly raised, giving Cheng Guheng a feeling that his conspiracy had succeeded. "What are you laughing at? Go?" Cheng Guheng frowned. Liu Bingfeng sat there without moving. He said, "Yu Shenhai said that Chen Xian killed the big demon python in the old ditch outside Liuquan Town. The strength of that big demon python should be very clear to the city lord." Cheng Guheng's eyes flickered: "What do you mean?" Liu Bingfeng smiled and said, "I may not be able to catch him alone. I need the full support of the city lord." Cheng Guheng took a deep breath and said, "Let Liao Huaiyuan go with you." Liu Bingfeng then nodded and stood up: "Then Lord City Lord, please give the order. I will go to arrest Chen Xian early tomorrow morning." After saying this, he turned and left. Cheng Guheng immediately asked someone to call Liao Huaiyuan and gave him instructions. Liao Huaiyuan was the chief of the City Guards. He looked to be in his thirties or forties, with a tall figure, a cold gaze, and was wearing silver armor. He walked into the study of the City Lord's Mansion and saluted to Cheng Guheng. "What instructions does the city lord have?" Liao Huaiyuan asked. Cheng Guheng explained the situation. Liao Huaiyuan frowned when he heard this: "Capturing people is the responsibility of the Demon Suppression Division, right?" Cheng Guheng said: "The murderer is very powerful. Liu Bingfeng can't catch him alone. You should cooperate with him to capture him." Liao Huaiyuan was somewhat unhappy, but he still had to obey the city lord's orders, and nodded immediately: "I am only cooperating, I am not responsible for arresting the criminal with all my strength. If you can't catch the criminal, please don't blame me, Lord City Lord." "No!" Cheng Guheng shook his head.
After hearing this, Liao Huaiyuan said nothing more and left. Let’s talk about Liu Shijie. When he got back, he found the old man of the Liao family and told him that his eldest brother's nephew had been killed in the town, and hundreds of people in the mansion had been killed, but the enemy was still at large. The old man of the Liao family is called Liao Wanyun, who is about sixty years old. He is an old man who seems to be very cunning and has the strength to reach the late Chongyuan stage. When Liao Wanyun heard that hundreds of people were killed in Liu's mansion, he was shocked and heartbroken, and agreed to help Liu Shijie capture Chen Xian. But when he learned that Chen Xian could kill the demon king, Liao Wanyun hesitated for a moment. "Can he kill the Demon King?" Liao Wanyun was surprised. He had offended a ruthless guy. "Master, although he is strong, the second young master is not weak either!" Liu Shijie said. The second young master he mentioned is Liao Wanyun's second son, the chief of the City Guard Division, Liao Huaiyuan. "Do you want Huai Yuan to take action?" Liao Wanyun's eyes flickered, and he immediately shook his head and said, "No, Huaiyuan is the chief of the City Guard Division, and arresting criminals is not within his jurisdiction. This matter should be done by Liu Bingfeng of the Demon Suppression Division." Liu Shijie said, "Master, I know. I was thinking that there is strength in numbers, so that the bastard wouldn't escape." Liao Wanyun slowly stood up, walked to Liu Shijie, and said sadly: "Shijie, I am also very sad about the change in your family. It's not that I don't want to help you, but I went to arrest someone and exceeded my authority. If the city lord and Liu Bingfeng knew about it, they would think that my Liao family had some ill intentions." "The most important thing is, your eldest brother isn't very clean in town, right?" Liu Shijie nodded silently. Liao Wanyun continued, "So I asked Huaiyuan to take action. What does the city lord think? My Liao family is your Liu family's backer. Even if Chen Xian is arrested, in order to shirk responsibility and investigate the dirty things your eldest brother did in the town, will the city lord drag my Liao family into the water as well?" "This...!?" Liu Shijie opened his mouth. He had not considered this point. However, he knew that the Liao family had been secretly competing with the City Lord's Mansion, because the Liao family was a native family in Fengyun County and was transferred from outside the City Lord's Mansion to take up the position. The Liao family had always wanted to bring down the City Lord Cheng Guheng and rise to become the lord of Fengyun County. He has been secretly dealing with the Red Wolf Gang. The last time the eldest daughter of the Cheng family came back from Shiling County, the Liao family secretly arranged three waves of ambushes. Unfortunately, Miss Cheng finally escaped the disaster. "Shi Jie, your elder brother is an official appointed by the imperial court. If he dies, the City Lord's Mansion must investigate thoroughly. He is more anxious than you to arrest him. If you are really worried, you can take the silver and go to the City Lord's Mansion. I will also ask Huai Yuan to go to the Demon Suppression Division to talk to Liu Bingfeng and get him back as soon as possible." "Thank you, sir. I will go to the City Lord's Mansion now." Liu Shijie nodded. Walk out of the study. There was a flash of anger in his eyes. He was very loyal to the Liao family, but in the end, such a big thing happened at home, and Liao Wanyun still evaded him, which made him very disappointed. "Old fox!" He cursed inwardly and went to prepare the silver and go to the City Lord's Mansion. However, when they arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, Cheng Guheng asked someone to reject Liu Shijie on the grounds that he was busy with official business. Liu Shijie had no choice but to go to the Demon Suppression Bureau to find Yu Shenhai. Yu Shenhai told Liu Shijie not to worry about it, as Si Zheng had already made arrangements for the arrest and they would go to Liuquan Town early tomorrow morning to arrest the person. Upon hearing this, Liu Shijie became excited and said that he would accompany them early the next morning. He also gave Yu Shenhai fifty taels of silver as money for tea.
Out of the Demon Suppression Division. Liu Shijie cursed Yu Shenhai in his heart. He had been struggling in the county for many years, and he hated these blood-sucking parasites in the court. Every time he asked them to do something, he had to pay them tea money, which could be as much as a hundred taels and as little as dozens of taels. He could not afford any less. It’s no wonder that his elder brother has committed so many evil deeds in the town over the years. All the money he saved was sucked away by the blood-sucking worms above. All the evil deeds were forced out of him. Who wants to be born a bad person? Once you are forced to do something bad, there is no way back. Start to carry out evil deeds to the end, only in this way can you live longer and more comfortably. However, at night, Liu Shijie received news that Liao Huaiyuan also went to assist Liu Bingfeng, the director of the Demon Suppression Division, in capturing people. He became even angrier, and after going around in circles and spending a lot of money, Liao Huaiyuan finally followed him. If Liao Wanyun had nodded, he wouldn't have to spend money to ask someone to do the job. …… May 28th. early morning. Liu Bingfeng, the chief of the Demon Suppression Bureau, brought a deputy chief, five followers, three general flags and hundreds of other people, as well as Liao Huaiyuan, Liu Shijie and others, and arrived at Liuquan Town in a mighty procession. When the townspeople saw this, they all avoided it and some even secretly ran towards Chen Xian's house. Liu Bingfeng and his men stopped directly outside the gate of Liu's mansion. They dismounted and went to Liu's mansion to check the situation first. Who knew that as soon as I entered the door, I saw five corpses lying in the yard. "Peng'er!" Liu Shijie rushed out from the crowd and hugged one of the corpses, which was Liu Peng's corpse. He immediately burst into tears with a heart-wrenching cry. Before leaving, he reminded Liu Peng not to provoke Chen Xian. It must be the person that Chen Xian came to his Liu Mansion and killed. “Ahhh… Chen Xian, you bastard, I’m going to chop you to death…!” Liu Shijie looked like a madman. He roared miserably, stood up and rushed out of the Liu Mansion. No one could stop him. "Let's go!" Liu Bingfeng said with a serious expression. Liao Huaiyuan didn't say anything. He was originally helping Liu Bingfeng to catch the man, so he didn't care whether he could catch the man or not. Immediately, everyone went to Chen Xian's house. After Chen Xian had breakfast, he also fed his father some medicine. After taking the medicine prescribed by Doctor Li and soaking the body-refining pills in water, Chen Quan looked much better after three or four days. His cough was still a little severe, but the symptoms were much milder than before. Sister Chen Rong's complexion gradually turned rosy, and her big eyes began to focus, becoming watery and bright. He himself was practicing the Thunder and Fire Demon-Splitting Palm in the yard to exercise his body. In addition, he was also secretly studying the ancient gold and black universal energy in his body.
When he reached the Wanxiang Realm, his soul body was severely shattered. His entire left leg was shattered, his right calf was also shattered, one ear was missing, and there were nine cracks on his body that were two fingers wide. Other cracks were densely packed all over his body. It was because his soul body was severely shattered. Although he had been promoted to the All-Things Realm, his aura was only at the late Spirit Infant stage. Fortunately, his body is still quite terrifying. His Tiangang layer is one centimeter thick, which is three times thicker than his tough skin. The ancient golden and black energy in the jade sea is no longer the power of Tiangang, but has been transformed into another kind of power. Yuangang is a sublimation of energy, which is more than ten times stronger than the power of the nine-color Tiangang. It is a kind of Gang liquid compressed from the power of Tian Gang. When condensed together, it is many times stronger than the Yuan Qi of a spirit infant, and the quality is different. The power rolling in his jade sea was Yuan Gang force, but it was not much, and he did not dare to use it excessively. His physical body could withstand it, but his spiritual body could not. Therefore, he mobilized the weak Yuan Gang power and transformed it into Yuan Xi power, so Chen Xian still retained the powerful aura of the late Lingying stage, but taking into account the physical body, the blessing of Huangli, etc., the total combat power can still reach the second level of Tian Gang, 2 billion Dingli. In the Tiangang state, the combat power increases a hundred times, which is 200 billion. He should not be able to use the Tiangang state in his current state, so his combat power is at most 2 billion Dingli plus the demonized state. In fact, many Tiangang second-level strongmen do not have a combat power of 2 billion Dingli under normal circumstances. 200 to 300 million Dingli is already terrifying. However, Tiangang second-level strongmen can display the Tiangang state, and their combat power can fluctuate between 1 billion Dingli and 3 billion Dingli. Chen Xian is an exception, but under normal circumstances he can also fight against a second-level strong man in the Tiangang state. "I have to hurry up and repair my soul." Chen Xian murmured to himself. He had been away from the Demon-Suppressing Pass for five days. Maybe Emperor Ning had already returned to the capital. Once his soul body is repaired, his true strength will definitely reach the first level of Wanxiang. He hasn't studied the Wanxiang Realm carefully yet. It must be more than just the energy sublimation of Yuan Gang. There must be other abilities. Just as I was thinking about it, an angry roar came from outside the yard. Chen Xian finished his training and looked over with a frown, and saw that it was Liu Shijie. "Chen Xian, you bastard, die!" Liu Shijie leaped over and swung the long sword in his hand at Chen Xian in mid-air. boom! Chen Xian stood still, raised his hand and clamped the long knife with his fingers. Liu Shijie was stunned for a moment. Just as he was about to draw his sword, he heard two clicks and the long sword broke into several pieces. Chen Xian flashed past and slapped Liu Shijie on the chest with his palm, causing Liu Shijie to spit out blood and fly backwards. He took a step forward, ready to continue attacking Liu Shijie. In the distance, a long sword came flying towards them. Chen Xian paused and waved his hand to knock down the long sword. Then hundreds of people appeared in front of him, almost all of them were wearing Feiyu suits, one was wearing dark gold armor, and the others were wearing silver armor. "Three Yuhai and twelve Chongyuan." Chen Xian raised his eyebrows slightly, put his hands behind his back and stared at everyone. At this time, Chen Rong and Chen Quan were both alarmed. The neighbors around also heard the sound of fighting and walked out of their yards. There were people who wanted to inform Chen Xian, but they were not as fast as Liu Shijie and others. When they arrived, Chen Xian was already in a stalemate with the Demon Suppression Division. "You bold and crazy thief, why don't you surrender?" Liu Bingfeng shouted angrily. He was in the late stage of Yu Hai and had a strong aura. His low roar was like thunder exploding out of the blue.
The neighbors all looked terrified, but Chen Xian didn't care. "Surrender?" Chen Xian sneered and stared at Liu Bingfeng: "Do you think you are qualified to capture me?" "Here is the arrest warrant." Liu Bingfeng immediately raised the arrest warrant specially made by the imperial court in his hand, and then opened it and shouted coldly: "The villain Chen Xian broke into the Liu Mansion in Liuquan Town because of a personal grudge, and killed Liu Qi, the young master of the Liu Mansion, and more than 40 people. The next day, he killed 50 townspeople, and then killed Liu Shifu, a ninth-rank official of the Liu Mansion. Specifically for a major homicide case in Fengyun County, Anyone who flees, harbors, or is an accomplice shall be punished with the same crime. If anyone resists during the arrest, they will be killed without mercy. The Demon Suppression Department has approved this..." boom! Before Liu Bingfeng could finish his words, the arrest warrant in his hand exploded into countless pieces, and finally burned to ashes with a loud bang. (End of this chapter)
