After I killed him for 9,000 years, he was reborn.

Prefect Lu brought the young boy Nanyang Yao to his study.

"Tell me, what confidential information do you have that can only be shared with me?"

Prefect Lu sat on his sandalwood armchair, picked up a cup of tea, carefully blew away the foam on it, and waited for Nanyang Yao's words.

"I know the true identity of Mr. Wu San."

Without caring about the slightly hot tea, Lu Fuyin placed the tea bowl in his hand hard on the corner of the table. The tea in the bowl splashed onto Lu Fuyin's hand, but he didn't even notice it.

Feeling that a breakthrough in the case was just around the corner, Lu Fuyin leaned forward slightly and asked, "What is the identity of Mr. Wu San?"

"He is a death warrior who specializes in doing shady things for his master, killing people, setting fires, burying corpses, and everything else."

Nanyang Yao's seemingly calm words made Lu Fuyin's pupils shrink slightly.

The coroner who performed the autopsy also said that Mr. Wu San must have been a assassin. So how did the young man know that?

Who is he, the boy?

"How do you know that Master Wu San is a deadly warrior?"

"Because I saw with my own eyes that Uncle Wu San led people to kill my entire family."

Oh, I didn’t expect this person to be a witness and a victim.

"what's the situation?

You explain the whole thing to me carefully from beginning to end."

He clasped his hands together and bowed lightly to Prefect Lu. Then he stood up and began to tell the story.

"Uncle Lu, my surname is Nan, my name is Yang Yao, and my father is the governor of Jialing City."

Nanyang Yao's self-introduction made Lu Fuyin feel excited. No wonder the young man looked familiar. His features were clearly somewhat like his father's, but the young man in front of him was less rugged and more handsome than his father.

"You are really the son of Governor Nan. What evidence do you have?"

It is a fantasy to expect Governor Lu to believe you with just a few words.

Nanyang Yao, who had been prepared, sat on the stool and reached out to take off his boots.

After taking off his shoes and socks, Nanyang Yao revealed a grayish-white, long, thin scar under his left ankle, the length of his little finger.

The culprit for the scar under Nanyang Yao's ankle was exactly the inkstone of Lu Fuyin.

At that time, Prefect Lu and Nanyang Yao's father took part in the imperial examination in the same year. Nan's father and Prefect Lu knew each other. Both of them were outstanding students in their respective academies. The two academies usually had exchanges with each other, and sometimes the students of the academies would compete on the same stage. As the leaders of the two academies, Nan's father and Prefect Lu naturally knew each other, and they had some mutual admiration.

During the imperial examination, Nan's father was from another place and had no place to live in the capital, so Prefect Lu warmly invited Nan to live in his home.

In fact, Lu Fuyin had selfish motives. Lu Fuyin's sister was plotted against by Lu family members and became a widow before she even got married. She was even almost forced to marry a dead man.

For the sake of his only sister, Lu Fuyin was determined to find a future brother-in-law among his classmates. Although Nan's father was eight or nine years older than his sister, he was a man of integrity, noble character, and quick wit. He would definitely pass the imperial examination this year and would be a suitable candidate for his sister-in-law.

By bringing the person into his home, Prefect Lu had originally intended to let Nan's father and sister meet each other, but in order not to affect the imperial examination, Prefect Lu planned to make the matter clear after the results of the examination.
