Chapter 52 My name is Pei Nanbei, the Lord of Aquarius State. If anyone covets you, please tell me my name!
The next day.

The Xie residence was decorated with lights and full of joy.

Xie Qiaoxuan is still strong and healthy despite his old age. He usually has a gloomy face when he meets people, but in the past year, he has smiled countless times.

It's all because of his wonderful grandson.

Brought fame, fortune and status to his Xie family!
Knock on the Wutong tree leader of the Wu Temple
He had to think carefully about what kind of official position he should get.

Thinking of this, Xie Qiaoxuan walked out of the Xie Mansion and headed towards the government office with the gait of a dragon and a tiger.

Over the years, he has done a lot of good things for that old fox Bai Qiuyi.

In addition, this time Song Chaixin earned his fame through hard work.

If he could be asked to parachute down and guard a city, even if his cultivation is a little low, he is still a great innate after all, and he has barely reached the passing line, so he can be in the position!
There is the Wutong Xie Mansion, and Xie Qiaoxuan, an old man of the third step,

At the beginning, you will wear the "red clothes" and serve as a town guard, commanding the city's military department, the government office, and the city's demon hunting department.
Totally works!

But what surprised Xie Qiaoxuan was that
Ever since his beloved son Qilin came back from the Jieying Ancient Road yesterday, the Palace Master Bai Qiuyi has been in a state of distraction.

No one knew why, but she remained silent and pretended not to know even when he gave her hints, both overt and covert.

Logically speaking, even if Song Chai Xin declined to be his disciple, as his master, he had to at least put on a show to fool the audience.

After all, he had a leader who could open the Wu Temple, which was also a political achievement and a future connection, but in the end, he didn't even show any appreciation.
Although Xie Qiaoxuan didn't say it openly, he had been dissatisfied secretly for a long time.

So, he got up early today and wanted to go to the government office to meet Bai Qiuyi.

Before yesterday evening.

Xiang Zhulu, the demon-hunting envoy of the palace, called Song Chaixin over and said that he had something to discuss with him. No one knew what secret he was up to.

While thinking about it, Xie Qiaoxuan wanted to ask the clerk to inform the governor and then step into the yamen.

As a result, I heard a secret from the yamen official.
This was news he had never expected.

"Shh!"

"Mr. Xie, you may not know what kind of important figures have come to this Wutong Yamen!"

"The Lord of Aquarius State and the Great Demon Hunter, two of the most famous governors in the state, are here!"

"correct."

"And your Qilin son!"

"He was summoned personally by two important figures. Maybe he will be promoted to the top in one step!"

Xie Qiaoxuan has great prestige and is one of the "Four Families" of Wutong Mansion with a third-step master in charge.

The minor clerk, dressed in simple black clothes and working as a government official, was of a higher rank than a city official, but he still did not dare to act arrogantly in front of such an important figure who needed to be discerning.

He told everyone in detail about the changing situation in the mansion.

Xie Qiaoxuan's eyes widened:

"What?!"

Before he came, he just wanted to see Bai Qiuyi.

How dare I think,

How could these two great men, who could shake the Aquarius State three times with just a stomp of their feet, condescend to come and meet the Xie family's unicorn son?

Could it be that God is blessing us, and the Xie family is about to soar to great heights?

"Wait, where's Bai Qiuyi? Is she waiting inside too?"

The police officer was stunned, then scratched his head:

"Mr. Bai Fu?"

"He was busy all afternoon yesterday, in a hurry, and I don't know why."

"Before this morning, he left Wutong Mansion with his disciple Jiang Yi. We only found out about this afterwards, so don't blame me for waiting."

"Even the officials in the government office don't know the reason."

As soon as these words were spoken, Xie Qiaoxuan's joy was stunned, and he smelled something unusual.

Two great men from Aquarius State descended from the sky!
Bai Qiuyi, the lord of the mansion, left without saying a word?

Is he crazy?
Or.
What bad background does this old guy have that he is afraid of being seen through by the real big shot, so he is guilty?
[You walked out of the Jieying Ancient Road, and remembered the promise you made to Lu Miaomiao, the leader of Changlefang in Shenjing, under the pilgrimage monument, and wanted to step into the government office to find Jiang Yi.]

[For some unknown reason, Bai Qiuyi and Jiang Yi, who were in the government office, could not be found at this time.]

[You didn't think much about this and wanted to go back to Xie's house first.]

[But halfway through the journey, he was invited over by the demon hunter Xiang Zhulu.]

[You didn't think much about it, but on the way to Wutong Demon Hunting Division, you tried to mobilize a wisp of 'Demon Hunting' energy. ]

[In an instant, a group of peddlers and hawkers of all shapes and sizes pass by in front of you, and a hazy aura emerges from them. ]

[However, most people do not have both morning and evening qi, because the "good deeds" they have done are not enough to condense into morning qi, and the "karma of killing and destruction" they have caused are not enough to transform into evening qi. ]

[Almost all people were covered with a layer of hazy gray. ]

[Until you suddenly had an idea and used your newly acquired great innate cultivation to mobilize this wisp of demon-hunting energy to directly spy on the area near Wutong Mansion’s residence.]

[Suddenly, you see a heavy dusk atmosphere, and there are several fleeting scenes, which make you jump with fear! ]

[You have received the inheritance of the Great Demon Hunting Lord. His Demon Hunting Dao Qi is only applicable to people other than the pure-blooded human race. Only those who can see the Dusk Qi, refine the Dusk Qi, and develop magical powers.]

【In other words.】

[In Wutong Mansion, there were many demons and alien species that had caused the karma of killing. Just in the small area he swept through, there were many of them! ]

[The magic power of the Demon Hunting Sect helped you to see some incredible secrets, which frightened you a little. Thinking of everything that happened in the Martial Temple, you suddenly felt like you were walking on thin ice.]

[What kind of cannibalistic world is this? Is even the city of Wutong so chaotic behind the scenes? ]

[Do you know what the functions of the Prefecture Lord Bai Qiuyi, the Demon Hunting Envoy Xiang Zhulu, the Prefecture Yamen Division, and the Prefecture Demon Hunting Division are? ]

[But because of the spirit of the 'Demon Hunter', you dare not say a word.]

[With a heavy heart, you walked into the Demon Hunting Division and met Xiang Zhulu, and also met two people you didn't expect. ]

[In the Demon Hunting Division, the originally angry girl Ruan Xiuxiu, when she saw you for the first time, especially when she saw the green jade pendant on your neck, her eyes lit up and she immediately smiled.]

[Ruan Xiuxiu's favorability towards you has increased, from regretting that we didn't meet earlier to being close friends! ]

[The elder Guan Jian on the side looked depressed. ]

[You restrained your expression, forced a smile, and greeted the two people, curious about why Elder Guan Jian came down the mountain.]

【Afterwards.】

【It was only from his tone that I heard the name that I had not heard for a long time, but which I had deliberately not thought of before.】

[“Song Fanjing, the young palace master of Yunluan Mountain, is about to break into the ‘Yuan Dan’ and hold a grand ceremony. I came to Wutong Mansion and invited several prominent figures to come up the mountain to watch the ceremony in three months.” Elder Guanjian said in a muffled voice.]

[After hearing this, you were stunned. ]

[It turns out that person has touched a higher level without realizing it.]

[But after a brief moment of melancholy, you couldn't help but smile, and the gloom that had been covering you was slightly dispelled.]

[Yes, I am making progress, so why would others stand still?] [But it doesn’t matter, I will catch up, and one day, I will be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with that person.]

[But no matter what, I will definitely go to her Yuandan Ceremony! ]

【At this time, Xiang Zhulu came over and looked at you seriously:】

【"tomorrow."】

[“The Lord of Aquarius State and the Demon Hunter General want to see you.”]

[“Have you really unlocked the inheritance of the Martial Temple?”]

[“Otherwise, how could we have alarmed those two!”]

[After hearing the news, you were shocked. You were silent for a moment, then slowly spoke out the words that had been deleted.]

Song Chaixin stayed in the Demon Hunting Bureau for one night.

Early in the morning, he was brought into the government office by Xiang Zhulu.

Ruan Xiuxiu looked worried, and secretly pulled Xiang Zhulu to a place where he had not paid attention to:
"Junior brother, if something really happens, you can report it to Yunluan Mountain, even though our sect has no say in the state."

"But at least Yunluan Sword Master has some face!"

Elder Guan Jian was not far away. When he heard this, although he was also curious about what happened to Song Chai Xin, he did not refute this statement.

In fact, the relationship between the underworld and the government is not that good.

It's not just the reason why knights break the law with force.

Because no matter whether it is a martial arts school, school, famous family, authentic, or even Taoist tradition!

What they value most is inheritance.

Only when the tradition is there can there be incense.

Only then comes family, country and the world.

The government hunts down and exorcises demons, but not all the demons in the mountains, rivers, lakes and seas are exorcised by the sects.

We all come here to make a living.

You destroyed my clan today.

If I take a breath, can I let you go?

Same thing.

In addition, the Jianghu is divided into a prefecture, a state, and even the entire Dazhao.

There are so many warriors, and the relationships are so complicated. You are in me and I am in you. They are actually two different lines.

It's not that there aren't some people who have connections with Qin Jiange, but they are only a minority because of their relationship with Yang Xiu from Bai Yujing.

The government’s laws cannot arrest people from the sect.

of course
This is based on the same level.

If the Lord of Aquarius State and the Demon-hunting General take a tough stance, I'm afraid Yunluan Mountain will probably not be able to take it seriously.

What's more, Song Chaixin's status.

He is completely inferior to the true masters such as Song Fanjing, Ruan Xiuxiu and Cui Chan.

Fortunately,

Before coming, Song Chaixin specifically asked Xiang Zhulu for information.
It is known that the Lord of Aquarius State is called Pei Nanbei. She was a sword-bearing maid who once followed the 'Great Demon Lord'. Now she has reached the fourth step and has long been unfathomable.

As for Ye Cang, Xiang Zhulu was already familiar with him. Before coming, he had promised him that the relationship had been smoothed out. If the Lord Peizhou with a brow as sharp as a sword was not kind to him, the demon-hunting general Ye Cang would help him.

When Song Chai Xin stepped into Wutong Government Office, he saw the famous Lord of Aquarius State and the demon-hunting general.

Fortunately, the two did not show any malicious intent.

only.
The woman, wearing a mask covering half of her face and dressed in red, purple and gold embroidered clothes, had been looking at him silently since he just came in.

It was as if he wanted to look Song Chaixin up and down.

In those eyes that are as deep as a lake and bottomless.

Song Chaixin felt that he had been seen through from head to toe.

He didn't know whether his 'demon hunting' spirit would be discovered, and was worried.
The woman, however, spoke.

"you"

"I have received the inheritance of the 'Great Demon Lord'."

She seemed extremely confident, and she was communicating in secret, so Ye Cang was not informed.

at the same time,

You were shocked, but you suppressed your reaction and didn't dare to reveal anything.

The words of Wu Miao's will are like a wake-up call in my ears, and I dare not forget them.

If such a big shot had any idea about himself.
Song Chaixin didn't dare to think about it.

But the next moment.

The woman stopped transmitting her voice and spoke with her lips and teeth. Her voice was extremely crisp and lively. She said:

"Song Chai Xin"

"I heard that you got the inheritance of Yang Xiu from 'Bai Yu Jing', the Great Wall that suppresses demons?"

"I am also from the lineage of the Great Wall that Suppresses Monsters."

"So, from now on,"

She paused.

The woman's face was covered by a mask on half, while on the other half, her skin was as smooth as jade and as delicate as a baby's.

But Song Chaixin lowered his head slightly and did not dare to look.

until----

"If someone covets you."

"You can tell me my name is Pei Nanbei."

The words fell lightly.

On one side, the demon-hunting general Ye Cang frowned suddenly and looked at the woman who was half a step ahead in disbelief.

Simultaneously,

The young man who lowered his head in front of him could not believe it.

Song Chaixin's pupils were already vibrating.

[Pei Nanbei, the Lord of Aquarius State, has a better impression of you: from indifferent to meeting you in the arena! ]
