On your wedding night, stay with your godbrother; the Empress is practically throwing herself at you

And in the center of the cordon.

Liu Fuyao opened her eyes groggily.

My head hurts so much.

My whole body felt like it was falling apart.

Especially that kick to the shoulder, it feels like my bones are shattered.

only……

"I……"

"Where am I?"

Finally, he struggled to sit up and looked around blankly.

What catches the eye.

It was a complete mess.

Am I not on the bus?

How did it become open-air?

But the next moment, Liu Fuyao seemed to realize something, and suddenly gasped.

"hiss."

I am indeed still on the bus.

However, this bus has now become a pile of scrap metal.

It was neatly split in two from the middle and then toppled over.

The cut is as smooth as a mirror.

And on the ground in front of the bus.

Two deep ravines, like two winding dragons, stretch all the way to the horizon.

It was absolutely shocking.

As for those previously arrogant men in black, and that haughty middle-aged director...

It's gone.

All that remained were mangled limbs and the pungent smell of blood.

"this……"

Upon seeing this, Liu Fuyao was completely stunned.

Memories flooded my mind like a tidal wave.

She remembered.

Someone blocked the way.

He was from Taihe Province.

That middle-aged director wanted to kill her.

then……

Then her jade bracelet broke.

Then... he was kicked unconscious.

Jade bracelet?

Liu Fuyao subconsciously looked at her left wrist.

It was completely empty.

Only a few specks of jade powder remained.

It really broke.

That was a gift from her brother...

Liu Fuyao felt a pang of pain in her heart.

But then...

She looked at the horrific scene before her, at the two familiar ravines.

A thought suddenly exploded in my mind.

This sword energy...

This destructive power...

This kind of overwhelming force...

So familiar!

Back then, outside the Demon Extermination Bureau in the South City, wasn't this the same move that Master used when he killed Ye Liuyun with a single sword strike?

Master!

Master has arrived!

At that moment, Liu Fuyao's heart began to pound wildly.

It must be Master!

It turns out that my master had been secretly protecting me all along!

When I was in the most danger, my master intervened!

Thinking of this, Liu Fuyao disregarded her pain and abruptly stood up, shouting in all directions.

"Master!"

"Master, is that you?"

"Master, where are you?"

"Disciple is alright now, Master, please come out!"

however.

Apart from the whistling wind.

No response.

The surroundings were deserted, except for the busy law enforcement officers and members of the martial arts association.

Liu Fuyao's voice became hoarse from shouting.

Still no one responded.

She slumped to the ground, tears streaming down her face.

Master has passed away.

It must be because I'm too weak and I've caused trouble for my master, so he's angry.

It's all my fault.

Why is it so useless?

Just then.

A series of footsteps approached.

Several people wearing martial arts association uniforms stepped out from the crowd and quickly walked up to Liu Fuyao.

The leader was a man in his thirties who looked shrewd and capable.

Looking at the horrific scene of destruction around him, a deep sense of dread flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes.

Then he spoke to Liu Fuyao.

"Miss."

"We are the enforcement team of Jiangcheng Martial Arts Association."

"What happened here is too serious; it has already involved the deaths of several martial artists."

"Please come with us."

"We need to understand the specifics."

Jiangcheng Martial Arts Association?

Liu Fuyao looked up upon hearing this.

His eyes instantly turned cold.

"Do you know the situation?"

"Where were you when those people were killing me?"

"Now that the person is dead, you've come quite quickly."

The man's face stiffened, somewhat embarrassed, but he still forced himself to speak.

"Miss, please cooperate with our work."

"This is also for your safety."

Liu Fuyao gave a cold laugh.

He didn't say anything more.

He simply stood up silently and dusted himself off.

Since Master doesn't want to see her.

Then she'll have to face all of this herself.

"Let's go."

Liu Fuyao said coldly.

……

Headquarters of the South City Martial Arts Association.

President's Office.

Lu Chuan pushed open the door and came in, still holding Wukong in his arms.

The little monkey looked around curiously, its two beady green eyes darting around.

"Squeak squeak".

Wukong called out softly twice.

The president's office is large, with a simple yet elegant design, and floor-to-ceiling windows offering views of half of the southern part of the city.

And behind the desk.

A burly middle-aged man was standing there.

It is Lei Qianjue, the current president of the Nancheng Martial Arts Association.

Lei Qianjue was dressed in a black Tang suit. He was tall and imposing. Although he did not deliberately reveal his aura, as a four-star Martial King, he gave people a sense of oppression just by standing there.

Seeing Lu Chuan enter, Lei Qianjue smiled.

"Mr. Lu, I've long admired your name."

Lei Qianjue took the initiative to extend his hand.

Lu Chuan was quite surprised, but he still shook hands with him.

"President Lei, you're too kind."

"sit."

Lei Qianjue pointed to the sofa.

The two sat down in the reception area, and the secretary brought tea and then left.

Lei Qianjue looked at Lu Chuan with a smile on his face.

"I heard Mr. Lu Chuan works at the zoo?"

"It was before."

Lu Chuan was also very casual, and even stroked Wukong's fur.

"I've resigned now."

"Squeak squeak".

Wukong felt very comfortable and loved it when his dad petted him.

Looking at the man and monkey in front of him, Lei Qianjue's eyes became even more playful.

"You should know about what happened at the zoo a few days ago, right?"

"Know."

Lu Chuan looked up,

"I was there at the time."

"Oh?"

Lei Qianjue leaned forward.

"So why do you think those animals suddenly rioted?"

"have no idea."

Lu Chuan shook his head.

"I was just a zookeeper before, this kind of thing is not my responsibility."

"Really?" the report said.

Lei Qianjue stared into Lu Chuan's eyes.

"But as far as I know, you were the one who single-handedly suppressed the riot at the entire zoo."

"Those ferocious beasts kneel before you more obediently than dogs."

The air fell silent for a few seconds.

next moment.

Lu Chuan smiled brightly.

"It seems Chairman Lei has done a thorough investigation."

"Since you already know, why ask any more questions?"

Seeing Lu Chuan smile, Lei Qianjue also smiled with relief.

"I just wanted to confirm."

"After all, there aren't many people in the South City who can do this much."

He paused, his eyes flashing.

"A Grand Martial Arts Master?"

Lu Chuan nodded.

"Just lucky."

"I recently broke through to the fourth-star Grand Martial Master level."

A hint of surprise flashed in Lei Qianjue's eyes.

But it quickly returned to normal.

"A four-star Grand Martial Master?"

He repeated it, his eyes becoming playful.

"To be a four-star martial arts master at such a young age, Mr. Lu is truly gifted."

"That morning, I received a distress call from a friend who works at the zoo, telling me that all the animals in the zoo were in a riot and even tranquilizer guns were ineffective."

Lu Chuan explained simply,

"When I got there, I realized that something must have triggered the riot."

"So all I did was calm them down."

Upon hearing this, Lei Qianjue immediately nodded.

at this point.

Just as he had guessed.

Immediately afterward, Lei Qianjue glanced at Wukong in Lu Chuan's arms and asked,

"This monkey?"

My pet.

Lu Chuan patted Wukong's head again.

Wukong then chirped twice in agreement, pretending to be an ordinary monkey.

Lei Qianjue smiled and didn't ask any more questions.

Instead, he thought for a moment and then suddenly spoke.

"Mr. Lu, since you are a four-star Grand Martial Master, would you be interested in joining our South City Martial Arts Association?"

"With your abilities, I can directly offer you the position of deputy captain of the law enforcement team."
