Seven-star Sword Master

After having breakfast, Xiaobianer went to Uncle Li's house next door again.

"Uncle, uncle, has the little fox come back today?"

The boy's slightly childish voice sounded again. Li Zheng walked out of the room with a bit of helplessness and said to Xiaobian'er who was standing in the yard:

"Little Pigtail, Little Fox didn't come back last night. Don't worry, I'll go look for them again."

"Oh, okay Uncle Li, Xiaobian'er will go back first."

The boy didn't know how to control his emotions, so Xiaobian'er walked out with a disappointed look on his face.

……

Lu Feipeng was handling official business in the room. There had been a lot of things going on recently, and Ma Jinbao had to secretly interrogate Li Cunyi. He was afraid that his tracks would be exposed and it would be difficult for outsiders to take over, so some official business fell on Lu Feipeng.

"Chief Steward Ma and Chief Constable Xu said they have something important to report to you."

At this time, a voice came from outside, and Lu Feipeng said without raising his head:

"Enter."

"Hey, Lord Lu, why are you here? Where's Manager Ma?"

The patrol guard who led Xu Zhiping in did not see Ma Jinbao, but instead saw Lu Feipeng sitting in the main seat. He hurriedly saluted him.

"Butler Ma has been called away by Lord Liu. What's up, Captain Xu?"

As he spoke, Lu Feipeng turned his gaze to Xu Zhiping behind him.

"My Lord, there are some things that are difficult to talk about."

As he spoke, Xu Zhiping lowered his head.

"Oh, go ahead and do your work. Leave this to me."

As he spoke, Lu Feipeng waved at the patrol guard, indicating that he could leave.

After the patrol guard left, Lu Feipeng looked at Xu Zhiping and said:

"Captain Xu, can you tell me now?"

"It is like this, Lord Lu. Yesterday, Steward Ma asked me to keep a secret eye on a child with pigtails and things related to foxes.

I sorted out the situation in the city overnight yesterday..."

Xu Zhiping was talking incessantly there, completely unaware that Lu Feipeng's expression was gradually becoming impatient.

bang bang

Before he had heard a few words, Lu Feipeng reached out and knocked on the table a few times, interrupting Xu Zhiping's voice:

"Captain Xu, let's talk about the main point."

Forehead!

Xu Zhiping shuddered all over and immediately broke out in a cold sweat, especially on his forehead because of this sentence.

He knew that he was being too long-winded, so he nodded quickly like a chick pecking at rice and said, "Okay, okay, I'll get to the point."

It turned out that not long after the yamen was opened today, a child was wandering around the gate of the yamen.

Xu Zhiping happened to have to go out for something, and he saw the child with the pigtails at a glance.

Originally he didn't believe that there could be such a coincidence in the world, but with the attitude of giving it a try, he hurried forward to ask.

You wouldn't know if you didn't ask, and you would be shocked when you asked. It turns out that the boy with the pigtail is the one Ma Jinbao asked him to find.

The reason why Xiaobianer appeared here was that he wanted the constables in the yamen to help him find the missing little fox.

When Xu Zhiping heard this, he realized that this was really the case of planting flowers with care but having them not grow, while planting willows by accident but having them grow into a shade.

After receiving the news, Xu Zhiping quickly dismissed everyone else and asked one of his trusted subordinates to hide with a pigtail, while he hurried to the Inspection Office to report.

"Oh, there's news so soon?"

Upon hearing that the pigtail mentioned by the fox girl had been found, Lu Feipeng stood up from the armchair.

“good good”

He then said three good words in a row, and then he told Xu Zhiping to stay here and not tell anyone else about this.

After saying that, Lu Feipeng went straight to Liu Xiangyang.

When Liu Xiangyang learned the news, he was very shocked. He wondered if this was a trap?

After all, it's not such a coincidence that they just caught the fox girl and then they got clues about the fox-catching woman.

"Master Lu, where is the head constable?"

"I left the person in Manager Ma's study."

"Let's go, I'll go see him in person."

The two came to Ma Jinbao's study, and Liu Xiangyang personally asked Xu Zhiping about what had happened.

After hearing that the clue was obtained from a child, Liu Xiangyang suddenly fell into deep thought.

He wondered if this was a coincidence or a trap.

"Master Liu, behind any coincidence there is always something unusual."

Lu Feipeng also felt that there might be a trick. After all, how could the person who could bring the fox girl out from Qingluan Country across millions of miles be someone who can be easily dealt with?

In the end, Liu Xiangyang personally reported the matter to the Annan envoy He Shiqiang.

When He Shiqiang received the message from Liu Xiangyang, he was shocked.

Because the message only contained numbers, it read:

"Ningtai Township found clues about the person behind the fox girl. The person is suspected to be from the Changsheng Sect. We are afraid that we will not be able to catch him, so we invite Lord Shen back."

What's the situation?

How could the three major forces, which had been hiding in the dark for years or even decades without any news, reveal their tracks one after another in a small Ningtai Township?

If the news this time is true, it would be another great achievement; he did not blame Liu Xiangyang for privately looking for Shen Changming without his consent.

After all, he was tens of thousands of miles away from Ningtai Township, and it was impossible for him to fly to Ningtai Township in an instant.

So He Shiqiang quickly replied: "Okay, remember to keep your whereabouts confidential. The arrest operation must be carried out in secret and must not be known to outsiders."

On the way, Shen Changming received the communication talisman earlier than He Shiqiang. When he felt the strange feeling of the communication talisman, Shen Changming's little heart suddenly started beating uncontrollably.

He blurted out subconsciously: "Here it comes, here it comes!"

Then, under the strange gaze of the fox girl, he took out the communication talisman with trembling hands. When he saw the message from Liu Xiangyang, Shen Changming laughed uncontrollably.

Sure enough, the content was just as he expected. It said that they had tracked down the person who brought the fox girl here, and asked him to go back and help catch that person.

"Snapped!"

Shen Changming became excited. This was another great achievement, so he excitedly slapped the fox girl on the forehead.

"Ouch!"

The fox girl suddenly felt dizzy and saw stars.

After waking up, the fox girl held her head with both hands, stared at Shen Changming with fierce eyes, and pouted her little mouth, looking angry but not able to speak.

Shen Changming noticed the fox girl's angry expression, but he didn't care. Instead, he burst into laughter.

"Hahaha……"

"Let's go back to Ningtai Township."

After the laughter, Shen Changming waved his hand with great enthusiasm and quickly returned to the original path with the fox girl.

Originally, he had just left Ningtai Township less than two hours ago. In order to conceal his whereabouts, he was already traveling slowly. In addition, he was eager to get the credit, so he hurried as fast as he could on his way back.

Shen Changming rushed back to Ningtai Township in just one hour. When he was almost there, he sent a message to Liu Xiangyang, asking him where he was.

So the two sides met in a dilapidated temple in the west of the city. After Shen Changming arrived and joined them, the two sides rushed to Xiaobian'er's house without stopping.

However, Xiaobian'er was left in the ruined temple. They would not let Xiaobian'er go before the arrest operation was over in order to avoid alerting the enemy.

There were only three people including Lu Feipeng in this operation, and Xu Zhiping was leading the way.

The four of them came to a street behind Xiaobian'er's house. Xu Zhiping pointed to a yard and whispered:

"Sir, this is Xiaobian'er's home. On the left is the home of the man surnamed Zhao."

Shen Changming sensed it and immediately frowned.

Liu Xiangyang immediately noticed that something was wrong with Shen Changming, so he quickly asked in a low voice:

"What's wrong, Lord Shen? Is he not at home?"

Shen Changming frowned and shook his head, "No."

After he finished speaking, he sensed it again, and then he spoke:

"That's weird. Why is there only one aura of the sixth level of the Spiritual Fluid Realm inside? I can't sense any other auras."

"What?" "How could this happen?"

At this time, Liu Xiangyang and Lu Feipeng looked at each other and saw a message in each other's eyes.

At this moment, both of them were thinking: "We were careless. This shouldn't be a conspiracy. It could really be a coincidence."

If they had known this earlier, why would they have gone to so much trouble to ask Shen Changming to come?

Isn't this just giving away the credit for nothing?

But even if they were allowed to choose again, they would probably make the same choice; after all, it would be strange if the person who could bring the fox girl out from Qingluan Country had weak cultivation!

"Hmph, little Spiritual Liquid Realm, come, follow me in, I will arrest him and interrogate him right away."

Li Zheng, who was meditating in the room, suddenly felt a chill coming from his body.

"what happened?"

Li Zheng, who was meditating, suddenly opened his eyes and looked around the room.

However, he did not notice anything unusual in the room, and then he said to himself:

"Maybe I've been so nervous and tired lately that I'm hallucinating."

As he spoke, Li Zheng shook his head and continued to practice with his eyes closed.

"Squeak..."

But just as he closed his eyes and had not yet started to practice his skills, a creaking sound suddenly came from the originally quiet room; it was obvious that someone had pushed open his door.

So this time Li Zheng felt very alarmed and he immediately opened his eyes again and looked outside.

"Chong"

He had already pulled out the flying sword that was placed aside.

When he opened his eyes, what he saw was a man in a blue robe with a silver ribbon around his waist standing quietly opposite him.

"The standard robes of the first-level Si'an Envoy?"

The next moment, a sentence came out of Li Zheng's mouth subconsciously.

However, after the words came out, Li Zheng's expression suddenly became stiff.

Suddenly, a tremendous pressure emanated from Shen Changming. This pressure was only visible in this room and did not leak out to the outside world at all.

Li Zheng, who was at the center of the pressure, felt that his whole body was attacked by gravity. The next moment, he could not bear the power, his eyes rolled back and he fainted.

This pressure was only directed at Li Zheng himself, while Lu Feipeng and others standing behind Shen Changming were not attacked by the pressure.

However, after Lu Feipeng felt this might, an idea suddenly popped up in his mind, which was:

"Is this the deterrent power from the Nascent Soul stage? It is indeed very powerful. It seems that I need to hold on to Lord Long's thighs even tighter."

"Search and see if there are any other important clues."
