Chapter 38

After Xiao Tianxiao returned home, he kept his promise and cooperated with everything.Not only let Zixuan be her personal maid, but also arranged the masters of the City Lord's Mansion in her own home.

That night, Xiao Tianxiao was sitting in the room drinking tea, the air around him suddenly twisted, and then a black shadow suddenly appeared in his room.

The black shadow was covered by a black robe, so he couldn't see clearly.The man in black robe Jie Jie said with a smile: "Boss Xiao is really in a good mood. At this time, he still has the time to drink tea."

Xiao Tian was startled with a smile, turned around and said with a smile: "So it was you, who do you want me to kill this time?"

The man in black laughed loudly: "Boss Xiao misunderstood, I am not here to ask you to kill someone this time, but to ask you to borrow something."

Xiao Tian smiled and said, "What do you borrow?"

The man in black said coldly: "Your life!"

As soon as the words were finished, a dagger flew out of the black-robed man's sleeve, turned into a lightning snake, and quickly bit Xiao Tianxiao's neck.

Xiao Tianxiao was shocked, and his body suddenly shook, shattering the tables and chairs.Then countless ice energy condensed in front of him, forming a vortex of water curtain, twisting towards the snake shadow.

The snake shadow was instantly shredded by the vortex, revealing the real body of the dagger.Xiao Tianxiao hadn't had time to be happy when a dazzling fire suddenly appeared on the dagger, instantly evaporating the vortex of the water curtain.Then the dagger accelerated suddenly, piercing through Xiao Tianxiao's neck.

Xiao Tianxiao covered his neck with all his strength. He only had time to say the words "Thunder Fire Snake Dagger" before he fell to the ground and died.

Zixuan hurried to the room when she heard the movement.The air around the man in black robe became distorted again, and the man disappeared from the room.Zixuan pushed the door open, only to see Xiao Tianxiao lying on his back with a dead look on his face.

The figure of the man in black flashed, and he had already reached the roof.Unexpectedly, there was a person on the roof standing with a sword: "My friend, I have been waiting for a long time, and you finally appeared!"

The black-robed man laughed: "It turns out that he is the Lord of Sword City, and he has long admired his name!"

Jian Wuchen said: "If you can kill people under the eyes of me, Jian, you must be a famous master. May I ask your surname?"

The man in black sneered and said, "If you want to know my name, it depends on whether you have the ability!"

The man in black shook his sleeves, and the Thunder Fire Snake Dagger flew out again, turning into a ten-meter Thunder Snake, biting fiercely at Jian Wuchen.

Jian Wuchen yelled coldly: "Seven stars rush out to break the army!" The long sword in his hand was as fast as a tiger, moving like a rabbit, and instantly swung a hundred and eight swords, turning into a ten-meter sword gang, smashing the thunder, lightning and snake shadow .

The man in black robe suddenly took a step back, stretched out his hands outside his robe, and made continuous seals.The Thunder Fire Snake Dagger once again glowed with mysterious light, transformed into the colors of thunder and fire, and once again pounced on Jian Wuchen.

Jian Wuchen's eyes turned cold: "Seven stars rise up to open up Yanghua Wuqu!" The long sword was released quickly, spinning 360 times in the air, turning into a dense sword net, blocking the thunder, fire and snake shadow.

Snake shadow attacking, sword net defending, the two are at loggerheads.After all, it was the sword net that got the better of it, smashing the snake shadow, revealing the real body of the dagger, and flying back into the sleeve of the man in black.

The man in black robe snorted coldly: "Sword City Lord's Seven-Star Sword Technique is indeed amazing. I have something important to attend to. I'll come back next time to learn from you!"

The air was distorted, and the figure of the man in black robe flashed and disappeared again.Jian Wuchen couldn't catch up, so he had to give up.

It was the next day that Mu Liufeng received the news that Boss Xiao had been killed.Mu Liufeng hurriedly asked Zheng Yi: "The chief arrester has checked the formation in the east of the city, has it been destroyed?"

Zheng Yi said: "It has been broken, but this time there is no massacre of the village, which is strange."

Mu Liufeng said: "The man in black used Boss Xiao to divert the attention of the City Lord's Mansion last night, and the matter has been brought to the fore. Of course, there is no need to slaughter the village."

Zheng Yi said in surprise: "You mean, the other party already knew that Boss Xiao is under our control. They will draw our attention away with tricks?"

Mu Liufeng said: "It was my negligence. We have always wanted to use Boss Xiao to make a fuss. Who knows that the other party thinks the same as us, and I am still missing a move!"

At this moment, a group of people suddenly broke into the Yamen: "Who is Zheng Yi?"

Zheng Yi went out of the door, and said with displeasure: "I am, who are you, dare to trespass on the important place of the Yamen?"

One of them showed his badge: "I am the special envoy of the imperial envoy, do you have a man named Mu Liufeng here?"

Zheng Yi took a look at Mu Liufeng before saying, "I don't know why the special envoy asked Mu to catch the head?"

The humane said: "The imperial envoy decreed that Rige should immediately go to Muliufeng's position as chief arrester, and be demoted to a probationary arrester, and not directly participate in handling the case."

Mu Liufeng was stunned for a moment, what's going on?Where does this imperial envoy come from?Directly demoted from head catcher to trainee catcher?Did I offend him?
Although he felt uncomfortable, Mu Liufeng still knew something about the power struggle. He, a small trainee police officer, could not get on the stage at all.

Mu Liufeng didn't argue, and after handing over his badge and official uniform, he went to patrol the streets.

City Lord's Mansion, banquet hall.

Jian Wuchen was drinking with the imperial envoy.This person's name is Nangong Fang, who belongs to the National Security Bureau and is responsible for dealing with foreign matters.

Jian Wuchen carefully apologized and said with a smile: "Master Nangong, I was just about to ask for help from above, and you came here, it was really timely."

Nangong Fang said: "The demon sealing formation has been broken by the demon tribe four times in a row. How can the higher-ups still sit idly by?"

Jian Wuchen said awkwardly: "It is indeed a dereliction of duty, but there is no need for Mr. Nangong to remove a small headhunter from his position. He is indeed excellent."

Nangong Fang sneered and said, "Excellent? How outstanding can a 20-year-old brat be? If he hadn't meddled indiscriminately, how could you have been fooled around by the monster clan?"

Jian Wuchen said: "But demoting him to a probationary police officer at once, isn't this punishment too severe?"

Nangong Fang said: "I am training him so that he knows that one should not aim too high and take one step at a time."

Jian Wuchen said: "But..."

Nangong Fang immediately interrupted Jian Wuchen: "Okay, City Master Jian, why should we waste our thoughts on a brat. Let's discuss how to deal with the Yaozu."

Jian Wuchen cupped his hands and said, "I wonder if Master Nangong has any good ideas?"

Nangong Fang said: "City Master Jian, I'm not talking about you, you are just too afraid of things and have been passively defending, so that the Yaozu can take advantage of it. Therefore, we should take the initiative to attack the whole city to search for the whereabouts of the Yaozu and wipe them all out. !"

Jian Wuchen said: "The method is good, but the city lord's mansion has limited manpower, and it is really powerless to defend the main formation."

Nangong Fang said: "City Master Jian, don't worry, I have brought [-] experts from the Security Bureau with me this time, and the defensive formation is more than enough. You just go and catch the monster clan. Without the monster clan, the formation will naturally be safe .”

The first level of officialdom crushed people to death, Jian Wuchen had no choice but to accept the order.

But he said that Mu Liufeng had been demoted. Zheng Yi knew that he was in a bad mood, so he gave him a few days off to let him adjust his mood.Mu Liufeng did not refuse, put down his patrol work, and took Hong Xiu and Yu Shiwei around for fun.
