Imperial Demon Slayer Division

Gu Yan sat on the chair, tapping his fingers on the desk, squinting his eyes and thinking about something.

Lin Xi on the side saw this and quickly asked

"What's wrong, sir? Isn't everything going well?"

Gu Yan sighed and said quietly

"When I asked him what the crime of communicating with evil spirits was, his heart beat a little faster. Originally, I was just looking for an excuse to bite him.

It seems that I was right. There is really someone in the Hongding Chamber of Commerce who is secretly working with evil spirits. No wonder he agreed to give the money so happily and wanted to let this matter go quickly. But this person is not Sun Ce, but Hong Xingqing! "

Lin Xi on the side suddenly shrank when he heard Gu Yan's words. If a top power leader like Hong Xingqing secretly communicated with evil spirits, then this matter would be very serious.

Gu Yan said in a deep voice

"Awaken the formation immediately, I want to see Mr. Chen"

Lin Xi pressed the seal with his hand, awakening the formation in the hall. The formation shone with a faint light, and after a moment, Chen Peng's figure appeared in the formation.

Gu Yan and Lin Xi saluted Chen Peng's shadow in the formation. Gu Yan was now only half a level lower than Chen Peng, so there was no need to salute, but Gu Yan knew how to measure. He couldn't be where he is today without Chen Peng. Peng's support

After Chen Peng saw Gu Yan, he smiled slightly

"How was your time in Yinshan County? I heard that Mr. Zhang went to Huangzhou. Are the evil spirits in the territory somewhat active?"

Gu Yan nodded and said quickly

"Master Chen, I suspect that Hong Xingqing, the president of the Hongding Chamber of Commerce, may be secretly communicating with evil spirits."

After hearing Gu Yan's words, Chen Peng frowned tightly.

"Are you sure?"

Chen Peng did not suspect that he was joking. Gu Yan's intuition was always very accurate, which was reflected in the incident with the Five Elements Demon Lord.

Gu Yan told Chen Peng the whole story in detail. Chen Peng on the other side of the formation pondered for a moment and then said

"Hong Xingqing is a strong man in the three realms. Now the high-end combat power of the Demon Slayer Division is on the front line of Huangzhou. Other Zhenzhou officials are also suppressing the demons. If you want to touch him, you can only ask the royal family to take action. If there is no definite evidence, You can't hire them at all. I'll send you some extra manpower to make things better."

Chen Peng is in the imperial capital and is the commander guarding the imperial capital. He has deep trust and naturally knows His Majesty’s thoughts.

He sent more manpower to Gu Yan and asked Gu Yan to pull the Hongding Chamber of Commerce's braid. He meant that it didn't matter whether Hong Xingqing had colluded with evil spirits or not.

Now that he has been targeted by His Majesty, as long as Gu Yan can find out a big enough reason, Chen Peng can go directly to His Majesty and ask His Majesty to send powerful men from the royal family to take action and directly destroy the Hongding Chamber of Commerce.

After the formation contact was cut off, Gu Yan looked at Lin Xi and asked

"Do you think Hong Xingqing, a strong man in the Tongxuan realm, would want to make a deal with Yaoxie?"

After Lin Xi pondered for a moment, he replied

"Sir, although Hong Xingqing's strength is not on the Heavenly Ranking, he is still a strong man standing at the top of the mainland. I really can't think of any reason for him to collude with evil spirits. Could it be that your Majesty has guessed wrong?"

Gu Yan shook his head

"You are right, he lacks nothing in terms of fame, fortune, and wealth, but don't forget that Hong Xingqing is already over 350 years old. The lifespan of a strong man in the Tongxuan Realm is four hundred years. With his talent, if With normal cultivation, it is absolutely impossible to break through to the second level of Suitian in just a few decades.

Have you forgotten the blood demon ancestor? Yaoxie has a method that can quickly improve people's strength. It's obvious that Hong Xingqing is moved."

After listening to Gu Yan's analysis, Lin Xi suddenly realized

"Then what do you think he would do with the evil spirit?"

Gu Yan stood up, came to the map of Jiuzhou in the hall, pointed at Huangzhou and said

"Huangzhou is the deal between him and the evil spirits"

Lin Xi didn't understand what Gu Yan meant.

"Sir, although Hong Xingqing is a strong man in the Tongxuan realm, his strength is only at the end of the crane. How can he compare with the several Zhenzhou officials in Huangzhou? If Lord Fang Yingfang takes action, I am afraid he can kill him with one sword. "

Gu Yan smiled and patted his shoulder.

"You are right. Lord Fang of Jian Duan Xinghe is indeed very strong, but don't forget that the Hongding Chamber of Commerce under Hong Xingqing is the largest chamber of commerce in the world. What they are most in need of are talismans and magic weapons.

What if he uses this as a deal to arm the border monsters with talismans and magic weapons? The pressure on the border has been increasing recently, and Hong Xingqing’s aid to Yaoxie is very likely to become a sharp blade for Yaoxie’s side to tear apart Huangzhou’s defense line.”

After hearing this, Lin Xi's expression suddenly changed. If what Gu Yan said came true, then Hong Xingqing would most likely have already prepared and secretly sent someone to deliver things to the border.

"Sir, what should I do?"

Gu Yan looked at the map and snorted coldly.

"Immediately send a message to Mr. Fang, telling him everything, and asking him to send people to sneak into the border of Huangzhou, Liaozhou. If it is true or false, you will know after checking it."

Lin Xi nodded and without any delay, immediately turned around and walked out.

Gu Yan suddenly called him and stopped him.

"Wait a minute, this matter is very important, let your brother go there personally."

"it is good"

The current situation in Liaozhou is very tense. Gu Yan wants to be in charge of the Demon Slayer Division and monitor every move of the Hongding Chamber of Commerce in real time. He cannot go to Huangzhou in person.

In the Demon Slaying Department of Yinshan County, the only one who is trustworthy and powerful is Lin Wu. Only Lin Wu can shoulder this important task.

Last time in Cangshui City, Lin Xi gave Lin Wu a lot of martial arts skills, which greatly improved his strength.

After all, Lin Wu is an elite in the imperial capital, and superior combat power is the hallmark of people like them. Although he is in the early stage of the Soul Cultivation Realm, his combat power is not weaker than the middle stage of the Cultivation of the Spirit Realm. If he goes, Gu Yan can rest assured.

After Lin Xi left, Gu Yan kept frowning at the map in front of him, speculating on Hong Xingqing's plan.

Time passed very quickly, and the sky immediately turned dark. Gu Yan once again awakened the formation that linked the imperial capital to the east city.

Chen Peng's figure appeared in the formation, listening to Gu Yan's report with a shocked expression.

"Good boy, it was really a wise move for Mr. Fang to let you go to Yinshan County. I thought back then I suggested Mr. Fang to transfer you to a safer place like Jiangzhou or Qingzhou. Now that I think about it, it's fortunate that Mr. Fang didn't listen to me."

Chen Peng is right. Others may not be willing to conflict with the Hongding Chamber of Commerce, nor may they be so ruthless, nor may they be able to detect Hong Xingqing's emotional fluctuations so keenly.

Gu Yan said modestly

"Your Excellency, you've given me a reward."

Chen Peng said seriously at this time

"You keep an eye on this matter, and as soon as the information from Huangzhou comes back, you inform me immediately. I will enter the palace as soon as possible and ask for your Majesty's orders."

"Don't worry, sir, nothing will go wrong in this matter."

After the communication array was cut off, Gu Yan returned home directly after handling the official duties at hand.

Ren Woxiao was practicing in the courtyard. Seeing Gu Yan looking worried, he didn't ask any more questions. If Gu Yan wanted to say something, he would tell him without asking.

"Brother Ren, is there anything going on the day after tomorrow?"

"No, what's wrong? What happened?"

Gu Yan nodded.

"Brother Ren will follow me to Huaizhou City the day after tomorrow to visit Hong Xingqing."

Ren I smiled and looked at Gu Yan with a shocked face.

"Brother Gu, aren't you going to work hard?"
