If you don't bring disaster to the world, what kind of henchman are you to be?
Chapter 23: The First Female Constable
Just ten breaths later.
Zhan Liangyu pulled the ice sword from Du Meng's chest; the wound was already covered with layers of ice, freezing the blood.
Du Meng's eyes were wide open in horror, his body stiffened, and in the end, he could only fall to the ground in regret.
"As expected of the top female constable."
Zhu Qing, who was standing to the side, watched their battle unfold and couldn't help but sigh with admiration.
Although they were at the same level, Zhan Liangyu had been dominating him from the very beginning, his mastery of the ice and fire swords was superb.
No wonder it was once famous in the capital.
In less than a quarter of an hour, none of the White Lotus Sect members present survived, and the streets were littered with corpses.
"My lord, the brothers are all back."
Qi Yunfei came to Zhu Qing's side, panting, and said, "This time, all of us brothers are alive. Except for the three who were injured, the rest of us are fine."
"Okay, that's fine then." Zhu Qing nodded slightly.
They didn't need to clean up the battlefield, so after successfully completing this mission, Zhu Qing planned to go back and sort out the spoils.
"Wishing you good fortune, Hundred Households."
Before they even set off, Zhan Liangyu strode over.
"Lord Zhan."
Zhu Qing clasped his hands in a salute and looked at his superior.
Only then did he notice that she was actually two heads taller than him. Looking at her straight ahead, he could only see a double-sized manhood; he had to tilt his head slightly to see her face.
In the original owner's memory, Zhan Liangyu was the daughter of General Jingyuan. She was thirty-two years old this year, but her face showed no signs of being over thirty.
In addition to his outstanding martial arts talent, he reached the Blood Burning Realm at the young age of thirty-two, making him both talented and handsome, and quite famous in the imperial court.
"Your Northern Garrison Command did a good job in luring and capturing the White Lotus Sect members. I will report your achievements to the higher authorities truthfully."
"Thank you very much, Officer Zhan..."
"Don't thank me yet, this isn't entirely a good thing for you."
Zhu Qing's eyes widened in surprise, while Zhan Liangyu said with an icy expression, "According to reliable intelligence, because you captured Qiao Manyue alive, you have been listed as a must-kill enemy by the White Lotus Sect."
"They're asking for three thousand taels of silver to take your life, and many underworld forces are itching to get involved."
"Be careful."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Qing's lips twitched slightly.
No wonder he's been feeling a chill around him lately.
"Okay, I'll be careful. What's coming will come sooner or later."
His face remained calm, as if he were not worried at all.
Seeing that he was so calm and composed, and not anxious about the bounty on his head, Zhan Liangyu also felt that this little guy was quite interesting.
"You'd better watch yourself."
She left after saying those words, and when she was about ten paces away, a constable beside her said, "Sir, you said that Commander Zhu is clearly in grave danger, so why is he still so calm?"
"Is he not afraid of dying?"
He was somewhat puzzled.
Anyone with eyes to see knows that this execution supervision is no easy task, as it could easily incur the wrath of the White Lotus Sect.
Zhu Qing not only showed up, but also personally killed so many demons, which was tantamount to openly provoking the White Lotus Sect.
This is not a wise move.
Zhan Liangyu calmly replied, "Being upright and honest is what a true man does. Isn't that better than those treacherous people who try to please everyone?"
The former shrugged: "What the adult says makes sense."
Standing still, Zhu Qing blinked, and seeing them walk away, she immediately grabbed Qian Wei next to her and growled in a low voice.
"Go to the Six Doors archives immediately and dig out all the records of all the underworld's criminal organizations."
……
Know yourself and the enemy, a hundred battles will never end.
Faced with this unknown crisis, Zhu Qing naturally wanted to understand the situation as much as possible.
He spent half an hour consulting the archives, then solemnly returned the scrolls.
The underworld situation around the capital is complex and complicated, with dozens of large and small factions.
Among them, the most powerful are known as the three major underworld families: the Five Poisons Gang, the Seven Fiends Gate, and the Rouge Hall.
Judging from the current situation, these three families are the most likely to accept the White Lotus Sect's bounty.
Of course, other forces cannot be ruled out.
These are all potential dangers.
Zhu Qing took out all the case files of the three underworld families and placed them on the table next to him to examine them carefully.
Time flies, and evening arrives in the blink of an eye.
After memorizing all the information about these three companies, Zhu Qing slowly rubbed her temples and stood up.
"Forget it, instead of worrying unnecessarily, I should focus on my cultivation."
"The more strength you have, the more chances you have to survive."
Zhu Qingxin thought for a moment, then summoned the control panel.
[Realm Level: Mid-stage Body Refinement (Minor Success 1/100)]
Martial Arts: White Ape Skill (Minor Success 1/100)
Thunder Blade Technique (Mastery 40/100)
Wild Goose Movement (Dacheng 25/100),
[Jade-Crushing Finger (Beginner 11/100)]
[Attribute value: 42]
After this battle, he directly gained 42 attribute points!
"For the time being, there are no martial arts techniques that can be improved upon, so let's use them all to increase our cultivation level."
Without much thought, Zhu Qing poured all his attribute values into his cultivation, further expanding the scale of Qi and blood in his dantian.
"Blessings, sir."
At that moment, Qi Yunfei stepped across the threshold, his face solemn, and quickly walked to Zhu Qing's ear, whispering something to her.
"really?"
"It's true, I saw it with my own eyes."
Zhu Qing nodded slightly, looking at the golden sunset outside, and then took out a few taels of silver from her sleeve.
"Take this and prepare some food and drink for the brothers first, then we'll make our move tonight."
……
Night fell.
Thick clouds hung overhead, making the night even darker.
Hongxiulou.
Spring is the season of rejuvenation, and the famous brothel Hongxiulou in the capital is naturally bustling with activity.
In one of the rooms, two men sat facing each other, raising their glasses and drinking heartily, thoroughly enjoying themselves.
"Haha, Brother Lang, it's a real shame we haven't met sooner!"
The speaker was dressed in a long silk robe, with a jade pendant at his waist, and his dark face was full of drunkenness.
The man opposite him had delicate features and a strong, clear face. He was dressed in a white and blue martial arts outfit and was also intoxicated.
"Brother Lin, I, Lang Zhongyi, love to associate with heroes of the martial world. You are a dashing and romantic fellow, just like me, hahaha!"
"So, Brother Lang, you also have a taste for beautiful women?" Lin Zhigan asked with a wicked smile.
Lang Zhongyi waved his hand: "Brother, I'm different for you. You're like a flower that can pass through a garden without a single petal sticking to you."
"And what about you?"
"Me? I just have a childhood sweetheart, a junior sister."
Lin Zhigan slapped the table and laughed, "So Brother Lang is quite the romantic. If you ask me, a man should be a womanizer in this world."
"To appreciate a beautiful woman is like appreciating flowers. If we, the romantic and talented, do not linger and admire her, wouldn't we be ignorant of romance?"
"Hahaha!"
"That makes sense! We've had a great time drinking today, so why don't we take this opportunity to become sworn brothers?"
"Good idea."
……
In front of the building.
Zhu Qing stood quietly, holding a wanted poster in her hand, which depicted the appearance of a young man.
"A womanizer... Ha, he doesn't even spare a fourteen-year-old girl. If this were my past life, I would have electrocuted him."
Recently, there have been numerous cases of sexual assault in the capital and surrounding counties, with victims ranging from women in their thirties to girls as young as fourteen. In just one month, a total of twenty such cases have been committed.
Actually, most of the previous nineteen incidents didn't make much of a splash, but this guy ruined the daughter of the Vice Minister of War just two days ago.
This is incredible.
Wealthy families value chastity above all else; this is tantamount to puncturing their lungs.
In order to capture this lecherous thief, the Vice Minister of War not only offered a reward of silver, but also added a black iron weapon as an extra reward.
Xuan Tie is a renowned superior material in the martial arts world. Many famous weapons are made of Xuan Tie, making it extremely precious.
Therefore, this case became a big deal, with arrest warrants flying everywhere, and many officials from the Six Doors, the Northern Garrison, the Ministry of War, and other departments were working hard on it.
Coincidentally, Qi Yunfei was out on the street today when he unexpectedly bumped into this flower thief.
"They've come to give me credit."
Zhu Qing put away the wanted poster. Qi Yunfei walked out of Hongxiu Tower and stepped forward to whisper, "Sir, Lin Zhigan is in Chunshuijian. There are only two of them."
