Night Watchman: Linked to the Legend of Sword and Fairy game, strongly promoting Huaiqing.

"The capital city has been in turmoil lately."

At a small stall, Master Jinlian looked on with a sigh.

They had originally planned to rely on the strength and defenses of the capital to withstand the approaching Black Lotus.

This made Hei Lian hesitant to act rashly, fearing the consequences.

Surprisingly, during the time he was there, the capital was in constant turmoil and murders occurred frequently.

First came the tax silver, then Zhou Xianping's family, then Sun Mingzhong's entire family was wiped out, then Liu Family Village was massacred, and now the fourth-rank watchman, Jinluo, has been killed.

He even began to suspect that this was not the capital, but a place of turmoil.

"All the fourth-rank Golden Gong experts are dead?"

"A third-rank swordsman?"

Hengyuan's horrified voice rang out.

Has the capital city become so dangerous?

Inside Qinglong Temple, Hengyuan was startled when he heard this.

Qinglong Temple is located in a remote part of the capital, so they did not know about Zhu Yang's death last night.

I was immediately shocked when I found out.

This is a fourth-grade expert!

Even with the help of the thief-killing fruit, he could only barely reach the fourth rank.

The fourth-rank expert who took over was immediately killed.

Similarly, he might only be killed by a single sword strike.

At this moment, Li Miaozhen's voice rang out: "Are all the fourth-rank experts dead?"

"Has the capital city really gone to such a crazy state? So far, not a single fourth-rank expert has died in Yunzhou."

Although the rebels in Yunzhou are currently rampant, the imperial army is constantly fighting against them.

But at most, only fifth-grade experts have fallen; not a single fourth-grade expert has fallen.

Because there are very few fourth-grade experts, they are already considered high-end combat power.

Therefore, even Li Miaozhen had to marvel at the madness in the capital at this moment.

"A fourth-rank official has fallen?"

At this moment, Chu Yuanzhen, number four, also spoke up.

"I'm afraid there's going to be a lot of chaos among the night watchmen."

At this moment.

Huaiqing's voice rang out: "Last night, it wasn't just one major incident, but two."

Those who heard this were startled and quickly asked, "What was the other one?"

Huaiqing replied, "Just now we discovered that the entire household of Minister of War Zhang Feng was wiped out last night."

After she finished speaking, the Golden Lotus Daoist and the others fell silent.

Two major incidents occurred in one night.

It was still within the supposedly safest urban area of ​​Beijing.

One is a fourth-rank expert, and the other is a second-rank official in the imperial court.

For a moment, everyone was stunned.

"Huaiqing, that girl, is really well-informed."

Upon hearing this, Li Xuan sighed inwardly.

No one from his subordinates has come to inform him yet.

The news has already reached Huaiqing.

It was obvious that they found out immediately.

At this moment, Master Jinlian asked, "According to what we know, the death of Zhu Yang, a fourth-rank Golden Gong, was caused by the same swordsman from Liu Family Village."

"A third-rank swordsman? It's strange, why haven't I heard of him before?"

Throughout the world, there are only a handful of experts at the third rank.

Each of them is well-known and famous.

But now a third-rank swordsman has appeared, and even Daoist Jinlian can't find out any information about him.

Then, Master Jinlian added, "By the way, could the person who wiped out Zhang Feng's family also be this third-rank swordsman expert?"

Huaiqing's voice rang out: "No, it's someone else."

"This person's methods are similar to those of a sorcerer."

"It can summon powerful heavenly lightning and fire."

"This matter is being closely monitored by the Imperial Observatory, which is currently investigating relevant information."

Inside the mansion, Huaiqing parted her red lips slightly and spoke to the small jade mirror.

After she finished speaking, she frowned slightly.

The murderer who destroyed Zhang Feng's mansion was not a swordsman.

He was a powerful sorcerer.

but!

The only powerful sorcerers in the world are those from the Imperial Observatory.

Surely it wasn't some expert from the Imperial Observatory who wiped out the entire family?

But that's impossible!

Because the astronomers of the Imperial Observatory were under constant surveillance by the Director, it was impossible for them to be wiped out without being known.

The supervisor would not allow a family to be wiped out.

"There is still one powerful warlock."

"Xu Pingfeng, the chief disciple of the supervisor!"

"But wasn't that person already dead?"

Huaiqing narrowed her almond-shaped eyes, thinking of Xu Pingfeng.

But Xu Pingfeng has been dead for many years, so it couldn't be him.

Unless Xu Pingfeng continues to fake his death.

However, there is no information that Xu Pingfeng is faking his death.

"And who did this?"

Huaiqing became increasingly confused.

Only the Imperial Observatory existed for diviners of the fourth rank and above.

However, the Imperial Observatory stated that it was not their doing.

Who is the murderer?

"Swordsman, sorcerer!"

"The capital is becoming increasingly unclear and chaotic."

Huaiqing parted her red lips slightly and sighed.

The increasingly chaotic situation left her feeling powerless and at a loss.

"We must find a way to improve our cultivation level."

"Only by advancing to the third rank can one have enough power to face the turbulent and unpredictable situation."

At this moment, Huaiqing desperately wanted to improve his cultivation level.

She had previously thought that her fourth-grade cultivation level was already sufficient.

But now so many things have happened.

All the fourth-rank experts were killed.

The matter of her father, Emperor Yuanjing, made her even more anxious.

"But improving one's cultivation level and advancing to the third rank is easier said than done."

"Otherwise, there wouldn't just be a few third-rank experts in the capital."

There are quite a few fourth-rank experts in the capital.

There were five night watchmen, but now that Zhu Yang is dead, there are four left.

The Imperial Observatory also had several diviners of the fourth rank.

Yunlu Academy also has several fourth-rank Confucian scholars.
