Chapter 167: Murderous Intent

When Qi Xuansu was holding a meeting in Shenglong Prefecture, Zhang Yuelu returned to Lion City alone, leaving Ke Qingqing with Qi Xuansu. After all, the main responsibility of Zhang Yuelu, the second deputy palace master, is to investigate the case. The case has been investigated almost, and the person has been arrested. The next step is to try the case. In this regard, there are professionals from Fengxian Hall and Beichen Hall, and Zhang Yuelu doesn't even need to do it himself. Naturally, Ke Qingqing is not a big deal, and Ke Qingqing is not a small deal, after all, Ke Qingqing is not specialized in this.

On the contrary, Qi Xuansu's side, the chief deputy palace master is involved in many substantive matters, such as restructuring the Nanyang United Trading Company, the aftermath of the typhoon, etc. These things are very time-consuming and energy-consuming, and Qi Xuansu really needs a helper.

It can also be regarded as making Ke Qingqing feel more relaxed, so she doesn't have to run back and forth.

After Zhang Yuelu returned to Lion City, she first visited Lin Yuanmiao, who was injured on duty, and then took over Tianfu Palace.

Of course, it is nominally guidance. This must comply with procedures. She only makes suggestions and will not give orders directly. The specific order is still Xie Jiaofeng. It's up to you whether to listen or not, and it's up to me whether to speak or not.

Xiao Yin and Xie Jiaofeng were not so happy.

The easy-to-talk old Qi left, and the hard-to-talk old Zhang came. The good days are over.

As for Xie Jiaofeng, he had a similar mentality. It was almost spread among the upper echelons of the Taoist sect that Zhang Cixi was not easy to deal with. It was quite an evaluation of the legacy of the five generations of great masters. Although it was suspected of exaggeration, it can be seen that this Zhang Cixi was really not a "good guy" and was not easy to serve.

When Zhang Yuelu came back this time, Wang Jiaoyan was still second, and the key was Chen Jianqiu.

Whether it was for the benefit of the Zhang family or for Qi Xuansu's overall consideration, Chen Jianqiu could not fall into Wang Jiaohe's hands.

So she repeatedly told the Lord of Yuheng Star to protect Chen Jianqiu.

In fact, even if Zhang Yuelu didn't say it, the Lord of Yuheng Star would do so. After all, everyone was a member of the Ziguang Society, and Chen Jianqiu's identity was relatively special. After Qi Xuansu designated her as the successor to the Lord of Dayu, she had become a special member directly under the Ziguang Zhenjun, not a subordinate of the Lord of Yuheng Star.

This is actually a hidden danger. If Zi Guang Zhenjun uses Chen Jianqiu's identity to make trouble, such as stealing dragon energy, Qi Xuansu will be held responsible. However, under the circumstances at that time, Qi Xuansu could only do this.

If one day Qi Xuansu follows in Wang Jiaohe's footsteps, there will definitely be Zhang Xuansu and Li Xuansu who will stand up to expose Chen Jianqiu's affairs.

Maybe Xu Jiaorong is the second Chen Shuhua. Who can tell clearly about such things?

This is the problem of "momentum". If the realm is not cultivated enough, no matter how powerful the supernatural power is, it will be useless. Without enough "momentum", right is wrong and wrong is right.

Now Chen Jianqiu has been arranged in the residence of Yuheng Star Lord. When Qi Xuansu has almost dealt with the affairs of Shenglong Mansion, he can go back to continue to be the king.

Zhang Yuelu did not go to see Chen Jianqiu immediately, but asked Yuheng Star Lord to convey her greetings.

After all, Zhang Yuelu is also very busy and has many things to deal with.

When Qi Xuansu received news from Shenglong Mansion that Wang Jiaohe and his gang were likely to make a desperate move against Chen Jianqiu, Zhang Yuelu decided to go and see Chen Jianqiu in person.

However, Zhang Yuelu couldn't go there in a big way. She changed her crane cloak and lotus crown and put on a lake green casual dress instead of the more ostentatious red, white or black clothes, just like an ordinary little girl, and then she took Xiao Yin out.

Now Lin Yuanmiao's condition has improved a lot. He can take care of himself and doesn't need Xiao Yin to watch him anymore. In addition, Xiao Yin can't stand loneliness. Ordinary people are still and want to move. She has been watching Lin Yuanmiao for so many days and couldn't hold back. If Zhang Yuelu hadn't watched her, she would have run out and gone crazy. If Zhang Yuelu didn't take her, Xiao Yin would slip out as soon as Zhang Yuelu left. In this way, it would be better for Zhang Yuelu to take Xiao Yin out directly, so as to avoid this ghost girl causing any trouble at this time.

Yuheng Star Lord has no fixed place to live, or rather, she has a residence in each district of Lion City. Now Yuheng Star Lord lives in the Northwest District. Although there are many jade dragons here, it is easier to hide in a sense.

Zhang Yuelu and Xiao Yin took advantage of the night to come to the Northwest District. The streets here are crisscrossed, and the two seemed to be walking in a maze. From time to time, they would encounter drunks or beggars. Naturally, Xiao Yin would come forward to solve them. She didn't have to do anything. As long as she opened her mouth and stretched her mouth to her ears, she could sober up the drunks and let the beggars sleep well.

Zhang Yuelu was in a good mood today and teased: "I shouldn't call you Yin Dabai, I should call you Yin Dazui."

Xiao Yin heard that it was not a good word. Frightened by Zhang Yuelu's female power, she didn't dare to confront head-on, and could only snort to express her dissatisfaction.

Soon, the two crossed several rivers again. The river was full of small boats for overnight stays, and finally came to a dark alley.

At the end of the alley, there is a two-story building in Western style, with a large garden outside, covered with green grass. This is the residence of Yuheng Star Lord.

Zhang Yuelu was about to go in, but Xiao Yin suddenly stretched out her hand to stop her: "There is murderous intent!"

Zhang Yuelu was startled, and did not move forward.

Because Xiao Yin has a special physique, her "sense of smell" is so sensitive that even Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu are not as good as her. If she says there is murderous intent, then there is murderous intent.

In fact, she should be sent to Dongposuozhou to find Lin Tianhe. Maybe she can beat Yao Pei and Xu Jiaorong alone.

Zhang Yuelu asked softly: "How much murderous intent?"

Xiao Yin gestured with her hands and replied: "Bigger than me, bigger than you, and bigger than Lao Qi."

Zhang Yuelu shuddered, he was at least a heavenly being, or even a pseudo-immortal.

Could it be that Wu Guangbi has returned to the Lion City?

Zhang Yuelu quickly rejected this idea.

Wu Guangbi had his heart and liver taken out by Madam Bai. He was not a martial artist who had refined his physique to the extreme, nor was he an alchemist who despised his physique to the extreme. If he was neither good nor bad, he was destined to be unable to recover in such a short period of time. Moreover, the situation has changed. Li Tianzhen is gone and Li Changge is here. Even if Wu Guangbi has any special means to recover from his injuries, it is impossible for him to step into troubled waters at this time.

Since it wasn't Wu Guangbi, it couldn't be Wang Jiaohe who came in person.

This is also unlikely. As the real person in charge of the government, Wang Jiaohe has too many eyes staring at him. Even real person Jiang Da will occasionally look at him. Moreover, he is on the cusp of the storm, so it is even less likely that he will come to the Lion City quietly.

Who is it?

At this time, in the second-story building, Star Master Yuheng, who was sitting on the sofa, was confronting an old man.

Star Master Yuheng is still the same. Like Chen Jianqiu, she has Western ancestry. Her black curly hair is scattered like waves. Her purple eyes are in sharp contrast to her scarlet lips. She wears a white shirt with an open collar and a black Wearing a dark gold-patterned vest, black velvet trousers, and shiny black leather high-heeled boots, he was sitting on the sofa with his two thighs overlapping, making his legs even more slender.

There was a faint smell of lilac on her body, and her right hand wearing a ruby ​​ring held a goblet filled with bright red wine. She was gently shaking the wine glass, and the candlelight reflected through the red wine swaying in the wine glass, flickering on and off her face, which was half covered by black curly hair.

The old man standing opposite her did not show his true face. He was dressed in black and wore a bronze mask. Only his pale hair could be seen.

This is not surprising. Realm cultivation is accumulated over time. Generally speaking, the older you are, the higher your cultivation level is. The Taoist sect only restricts the rejuvenation of youth. It strictly prohibits turning into a boy or a teenager at a young age, but it does not restrict how old you are. In traditional cognition, old age and virtue are usually connected together. Xianfeng Tao Bones also tend to have the image of white hair and white beards. Therefore, many people simply show themselves as white-haired old men. Whenever the Taoist sect holds a general meeting, at a glance, there are many gray hairs, at least half of them.

In the world of martial arts, many seniors want to be dignified, but also want to be able to switch between being dignified and kind, and they usually choose the image of an old man.

Yes, for those who have reached a certain level of cultivation, image can be chosen, and it is not a difficult task. The martial artist can even change his face and physical features, so it is difficult to tell anything just from a head of white hair.

"What's the point of your distinguished guest's visit late at night?" Star Master Yuheng was not very nervous and did not dare to underestimate the enemy.

The voice of the old man in black was also muffled, as if it were the voices of many people overlapping together: "I hope the Star Lord will forgive me for coming here late at night. I came here because I want to ask the Star Lord for someone."

Star Master Yuheng laughed and said, "I'm an uninvited guest, asking for someone. Is the person you're asking for surnamed Chen?"

"The Star Master is smart and can be revealed at a glance." The old man also laughed.

Star Master Yuheng said: "You want to find Chen Shuhua, but I can't do anything. Chen Xianren Shenlong has seen her head but not her tail. I can't find her. I can't help you. Please come back, distinguished guest."

The old man in black snorted coldly: "I advise Star Master not to talk nonsense, you know who the person I want is."

Star Master Yuheng took a sip of red wine and lightly opened his red lips: "I really don't know. I hope you can give me some advice."

The old man in black said in a deep voice: "Okay, I'll be honest. I want to ask the Lord of Yuheng Star to hand over Chen Jianqiu to me, the Lord of Dayu Kingdom, Chen Jianqiu."

"It turns out it's her." Star Master Yuheng said, pretending to be surprised, "What do you want her for? This person is exactly what I should be using. You can find another one."

The old man in black did not speak and made his attitude clear.

Star Master Yuheng continued: "If I don't make friends, what are you going to do?"

The man in black said in a solemn tone: "Then I can only see the real chapter under my hands."

This time it was Star Master Yuheng’s turn to remain silent.

But just because she doesn't speak doesn't mean she doesn't move.

Star Master Yuheng still held the wine glass with his right hand, pierced the pad of his left index finger with the nail of his left thumb, and then used his index finger as a pen and blood as ink to draw a talisman in the void.
