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

According to intelligence.

Li Xuan accepted two Rank 6 spiritual herbs from Princess Lin'an, one Rank 6 spiritual herb from Princess Huaiqing, and one Rank 5 spiritual herb.

There were four medicinal herbs in total, which was incredibly abundant.

He was previously at the early stage of the seventh rank. If he had consumed all four spiritual herbs, he would definitely have reached more than the early stage of the sixth rank.

He must still have some miraculous medicine in his possession.

Therefore, Nangong Qianrou gave her instructions.

But she didn't know that Li Xuan had actually consumed all four spiritual herbs.

Li Xuan's cultivation level was not at the early stage of the sixth rank, but at the late stage of the fifth rank.

Li Xuan would certainly not reveal his true cultivation level.

A strange look flashed across his face. "I'll be careful," he said.

At this moment, Nangong Qianrou pursed her lips and said earnestly, "And Li Xuan, you've accepted investments from two princesses at the same time. What will you do in the future?"

"Don't be fooled by your current success in navigating the complexities of the situation. What would you do if the two princesses and the forces behind them forced you to make a choice?"

"Some things, once accepted, come at a price!"

The investments made by the two princesses are not ordinary or simple.

Lin'an's older brother is the Crown Prince, and he has the Crown Prince's faction behind him.

Huaiqing's younger brother is the Second Prince, and he is backed by the Second Prince's faction.

Don't be fooled by Li Xuan's current ability to handle things with ease and be successful in all directions.

That's because his value isn't great enough.

Neither the Crown Prince's faction nor the Second Prince's faction have yet met their approval.

For now, let Lin'an and Huaiqing compete with each other.

Once Li Xuan becomes a Golden Gong, he will advance to the fourth rank of powerhouse.

At that time, those people will be eager to pounce on us.

Li Xuan must make a decision by choosing one of the options.

but now!

Li Xuan is demanding benefits from both sides, and if he sides with either side in the future, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction and resentment from the other side.

He smiled gently and said calmly, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!"

What about the Crown Prince's faction and the Second Prince's faction?

He didn't care at all.

Seeing Li Xuan's confident expression, Nangong Qianrou didn't say anything more.

He simply said, "You can make your own choice."

at this time.

"Report!"

Urgent sounds came from outside.

A night watchman quickly came over.

"Lord Nangong, a major incident has occurred outside the capital: Vice Minister Zhou and his entire family have been murdered!"

"The chief requests your presence to discuss this matter."

"The Zhou Xianping family was murdered outside the capital?" Nangong Qianrou asked in shock.

Zhou Xianping is a fifth-rank early-stage expert, along with many officers and soldiers.

He was actually killed!

Most importantly, the thieves were so audacious as to launch an attack outside the capital.

"Okay, I'll be there right away!"

Nangong Qianrou agreed.

She looked at Li Xuan and said, "I'll go to the leader first. You can continue with your daily work."

“I understand.” Li Xuan nodded.

Nangong Qianrou then quickly left.

"That's really fast!"

Seeing Nangong Qianrou's departing figure, Li Xuan's lips moved slightly, and he muttered something under his breath.

Not long after he slaughtered Zhou Xianping's entire family, the night watchman was alerted.

If they had been killed using normal methods, they probably wouldn't have even entered the capital yet.

Even if the night watchman goes out, it may not be able to keep it a secret.

But a pity.

He was using sword control techniques.

He can travel a thousand miles on his sword and kill without a trace!

There's no need to go outside the capital at all.

After Li Xuan finished processing some files at the Haoqi Tower, the night watchman's residence, someone soon came looking for him.

One of his men reported, "Sir, Miss Chu Caiwei from the Imperial Observatory is looking for you."

"Chu Caiwei?" Li Xuan's expression shifted.

He then tidied up the files, stood up, and walked out.

After coming out.

I saw Chu Caiwei standing not far away.

She held a small bag in one hand and reached in with the other to take out snacks, which she ate with relish.

Her little mouth was making smacking noises, and she had a look of pure enjoyment on her face.

"What a little foodie!"

Upon seeing this, Li Xuan sighed inwardly.

He walked over and said, "Miss Caiwei, you were looking for me?"

Chu Caiwei stopped what she was doing, swallowed the snack in her mouth, and then stuck out her tongue to lick the crumbs around her mouth.

After doing all this, she looked at Li Xuandao and said, "I've come to invite you to the Imperial Observatory to teach me how to refine metallic sodium and the art of alchemy."

As she spoke, she complained, "You're already a member of the Imperial Observatory, so why do you stay as a night watchman and never go to the Imperial Observatory?"

Li Xuan was slightly taken aback.

What was he doing at the Imperial Observatory?

The spell I wanted has been obtained.

There was nothing left in the Imperial Observatory that he was willing to go to.

However, he had forgotten what Chu Caiwei had mentioned.

Li Xuan moved his right hand and presented a book.

"This is the second half of the alchemy book. Take it back with you, and you'll have a complete grasp of the fundamentals of alchemy."

Chu Caiwei's almond-shaped eyes lit up, and she hurriedly took the book.

She couldn't wait to start reading.

But after flipping through it, the smile on her face froze.

She said to Li Xuan in an annoyed tone, "I don't understand."

"No, no one but you can understand it."

Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "It is indeed a problem."

"When I have some free time, I'll go to the Imperial Observatory to teach you."

"No!" Chu Caiwei stared at Li Xuan and said, "Go now, we can't delay any longer."

"Furthermore, you are no longer in danger, and the Zhou family is already doomed."

Li Xuan's expression tightened, but he quickly realized that Chu Caiwei was just stating a normal statement.

He was unaware that Zhou Xianping's family was part of his scheme.

Also!

His disguise was flawless; he was concealed by a secret technique, making it impossible for him to be discovered.

"All right!"

He thought about it and agreed.
