Seven-star Sword Master

While Li Cunyi was telling about the recent events in Ningtai Township, Ma Jinbao also came to the outside of Liu Xiangyang's room.

At this moment, he stood outside the door a little awkwardly, raising and lowering his hand as he wanted to knock on the door.

"come in."

Just as he was hesitating whether to leave, a voice came from the room.

"grown ups."

Liu Xiangyang, who was meditating on the cushion, opened his eyes and looked at Ma Jinbao and asked:

"What's wrong, Jimbo? What's wrong?"

With Liu Xiangyang's current level of cultivation, how could he not sense Ma Jinbao wandering outside the door?

He was a little curious about what Ma Jinbao came here for. In the past, if there was anything, the other party would report it directly and never hesitated like today.

There was silence for a while. After an intense struggle in his heart, Ma Jinbao finally asked the questions that brought him here.

"Sir, I heard from Eunuch Xu today that Brother Lu has been promoted to the envoy of Pingnan?"

"Hey, so that's what it is."

Liu Xiangyang was wondering what was going on, but he just heard him say:

“Yes, the day before yesterday I did recommend Lu Feipeng to Fanyang County for promotion to the envoy of Pingnan, but because I didn’t know whether the higher-ups would agree to this, I didn’t announce it in advance.

Furthermore, before the appointment document arrives at Ningtai Township, we cannot publicize it. If there is a young man with a strong family background who wants this position, wouldn't it embarrass Lu Feipeng if we publicize it?"

After hearing with his own ears that Lu Feipeng had indeed been promoted to the Pingnan Envoy, Ma Jinbao still felt as if he was in a dream and still had an expression of disbelief.

He came here only to confirm whether what Eunuch Xu said was true, and he was not upset by Eunuch Xu's attempt to sow discord.

Are you kidding? He was able to become Liu Xiangyang's confidant and handle all the affairs of the government office on behalf of Liu Xiangyang. It's not just his ability, he also has brains.

How could he not see through Eunuch Xu's little tricks?

"Sir, Brother Lu is appointed as the envoy to Pingnan. Don't the noble families really have any objections?"

This is also what Ma Jinbao is most confused about. You know, those who can sit in the position of director in the Inspection Department are all from the four major forces.

One is the headquarters of the Inspection Office, plus the aristocratic families, sects, and the eunuchs from the Imperial Capital.

Lu Feipeng was born in a poor family and did not join any of the four major forces. How could he be promoted to the Pingnan Envoy within less than a month after joining the Inspection Division?

"I don't know the details, but I heard that it seems to have something to do with Eunuch Xu. Eunuch Xu must have said something to the higher-ups."

Speaking of this, Liu Xiangyang was also quite confused.

Although Tian Lixiang is usually a little unpopular, he has not done anything too outrageous.

It was just that he was not careful for a moment and someone took advantage of the opportunity and turned his trusted subordinates against him. But this shouldn't require the higher-ups to make such a big decision, right?

But these were just guesses in his mind.

How could he know that Eunuch Xu would report to his superiors every now and then? It would be fine if it were just some trivial matters, but he couldn't do anything about the large number of them.

In addition, Eunuch Xu had to report his work to his superiors once a month. After a long time, Tian Lixiang caused dissatisfaction from his superiors.

"My Lord, please continue to practice..."

After getting the answer he wanted, Ma Jinbao didn't linger for too long.

After leaving Liu Xiangyang's room, he walked all the way to Lu Feipeng's room and knocked on Lu Feipeng's door.

"Boom boom boom!"

Lu Feipeng, who was practicing swordsmanship in the mysterious space, felt a pulling sensation and then he disappeared on the spot.

When I opened my eyes again, I heard a knock on the door.

Boom boom boom!

He frowned, thinking that something might have happened. So he shouted outside:

"Who is it?"

"Brother Lu, it's me."

"It's Brother Ma, what brings you here so late?"

Lu Feipeng opened the door for Ma Jinbao.

"It's nothing, Brother Lu. I heard some news and wanted to confirm it with you."

Ma Jinbao followed Lu Feipeng into the room.

"what's up?"

"I heard that Brother Lu is going to be promoted to the Pingnan Envoy?"

So that's what happened. Lu Feipeng was wondering what else it was. He nodded and said:

"That's true. It seems the appointment documents are on the way and will arrive in a few days."

"Congratulations!"

After receiving Lu Feipeng's personal acknowledgement, Ma Jinbao quickly stood up and congratulated Lu Feipeng:

"Brother Lu has reached the Spiritual Liquid Realm at such a young age, and now he has become the Envoy for Peace in the South. His future is limitless."

"Where there!"

"Brother Lu, oh no, I should call you Lord Lu. When Lord Lu becomes successful in the future, don't forget to help me."

……

"Oh no! Oh no!"

The next day, near dusk, Captain Ding ran to the Inspection Office to ask for help.

"what happened?"

"A strange thing happened in the south of the city. Someone came to report to the police this morning that a family of three had all died in their home.

After receiving the news, I immediately led people to the crime scene, but when we arrived at the scene, we found that we could not enter the house no matter what. "

After Captain Ding told the whole story, all the patrol guards who were still on duty in the Si Mansion turned their eyes to Lu Feipeng.

Zhao Lei had just gone out on patrol. Lu Feipeng pondered and said:

"Why is it Chengnan again? Who is in charge of Chengnan? Go check out the situation first. If you can't handle it, don't force it."

"Yes!"

After saying this, two patrol guards and Captain Ding left together.

Lu Feipeng originally thought it was just a trivial matter. After all, he had just cleared out all the demons in the city, and this time it was probably just a small fish that slipped through the net, so he didn't take it seriously.

But who knew that not long after, one of the two patrol guards who had gone out to deal with the matter hurried back and found Lu Feipeng as soon as possible.

"what happened?"

Lu Feipeng saw that this man was one of the patrol guards who had left earlier.

This person quickly said to Lu Feipeng:

"Inspector Lu, you should go to the south of the city to have a look yourself. Brother Wu and I are unable to enter the room. It seems that there is some kind of obstruction. Brother Wu and I can only walk into the courtyard and then cannot go any further."

"Is there such a thing?"

Lu Feipeng was greatly surprised. You know, the demons in the city had been almost cleared out long ago, and it was impossible for there to be any demons left that could stop two people at the ninth level of the Spirit Induction Realm.

"Lead the way."

Lu Feipeng called Zhou Yiming and Wang Yushi, and they headed towards the south of the city together.

At this time, Wang Yu Shi had not yet arranged a partner. This was Lu Feipeng's idea.

He was about to be promoted to the Pingnan Envoy, and after observing Zhou Yiming for some time, he found him to be a decent person, so he discussed it with Wang Yu Shi and decided to let him and Zhou Yiming become partners.

Several people rushed all the way to a courtyard, which was already surrounded by people.

"You guys stay here first, I'll go in and take a look."

Lu Feipeng drew out the Seven-Star Sword and walked into the courtyard cautiously.

As soon as he entered the door, Lu Feipeng realized something was wrong. He looked into the room with a frown. Lu Feipeng did not notice the existence of the mysterious resistance they mentioned.

"Are they lying?"

Lu Feipeng glanced at Captain Ding and the others standing outside.

Then he thought something was wrong. Even if there was something wrong with Captain Ding, then it couldn't be that there was also something wrong with the two patrol guards before him, right?

If this had happened before, he might have had some doubts in his mind, but the Inspection Department had just conducted an internal self-inspection, so there was no way there could be any problem with the two patrol guards.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation!

He wanted to see what kind of creature dared to do something in front of him!

Then Lu Feipeng continued to walk inside without making any sound, but secretly he slowly poured some more spiritual power into the Seven Star Sword.

"Look, Patrolman Lu is worthy of being a third-level patrol guard of the Patrol Department. He can walk in easily without any obstruction or effort."

When I walked into the room, I saw three people lying on the ground in the main hall, covered in blood. They were a middle-aged couple and a child about eight or nine years old.

The specific cause of death was unknown, and Lu Feipeng was not in charge of this, so after he walked around the room and did not find any danger, he retreated.

When he came outside, Lu Feipeng's first words were:

"I didn't feel the sense of isolation you were talking about."

"How can it be!"

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately caused a commotion among the crowd.

"impossible!"

Even the two patrol guards from before reacted in the same way.

While saying this, Lu Feipeng quietly looked at everyone.

There are a total of eight or nine constables and four patrol guards here, and his eyes are focused on these constables.

However, he did not notice anything unusual in these detectives.

"Could it be that I guessed wrong, and it really has nothing to do with them?"

Seeing this, Lu Feipeng had to fall into self-doubt.

"If you don't believe me, go try it yourself."

"Go and have a look!"

The two patrol guards who had come to deal with the matter earlier walked towards the courtyard first, and a group of constables followed behind them without believing in anything evil.

"Hey, I can actually get in!"

"Let's go and take a look together."

Although he was able to come and go freely, there was something strange about the matter, so Lu Feipeng did not plan to leave.

"Someone, go and bring the man who reported to the police."

Everything was on the right track, and Ding Zhichang and his group showed what professionalism was.

There were seven or eight people in the group, each with their own division of labor. There was a coroner who was responsible for checking the corpse, and a constable who was carefully investigating the room.

"My lord, the people are here."

"Is that the official you reported to?"

Ding Zhichang turned his head and looked at the person who came.

"Yes sir."

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately caught the attention of Lu Feipeng, who was watching the detective handling a case.

So he turned his head to look at the man, and at first glance he noticed something was wrong.

Normally, most people would be terrified when seeing corpses, but this man was able to remain shocked in front of three corpses. This shows that he has a strong psychological quality.

But from the moment Lu Feipeng looked at him, his eyes had been constantly looking around.

Logically speaking, in situations like this, wouldn't people usually appear extremely scared when being questioned by the police?

Why doesn't this person seem scared at all, but instead acts like this is just a small scene?

It was bad enough that the resistance they mentioned before disappeared inexplicably, but now there is another one.

"Hey, strange things happen every year, but this year there are especially many!"

Seeing this, Lu Feipeng secretly became cautious and his hand inadvertently rested on the hilt of the knife.
