Chapter 31 Chen Pingping, King of the Night, the Path to Grandmastery of Shadows
"He must be referring to the director of the Supervisory Council, the mysterious Chen Pingping."
Chen Pingping.
The name sounds like a woman's name.
This was the first time Fan Xian had heard of the title of the head of the Surveillance Bureau. He felt it was strange, but he keenly noticed that the courtesan named Si Lili next to him trembled slightly when she heard the title.
Although the other party concealed it very well.
But the ripples in the teacup in her hand betrayed her.
He knew then that this person must be a formidable figure.
Wang Qinian, in particular, was so frightened that he bent over and waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "Oh dear, you can't mention the dean's name, you can't just mention it casually."
"That scary?"
Looking at Wang Qinian's fearful appearance, Fan Xian immediately thought of a certain chilling spy chief from the War of Resistance against Japan.
Zhang Tian's words confirmed this.
Zhang Tian seemed to be deep in thought. "I once heard some information about the head of the Overwatch Council from my master. On the surface, he is the head of the Overwatch Council, responsible for overseeing all officials, but in the shadows, he also controls various intelligence and carries out assassination missions. He is known as..."
"King of the Night".
He feigned curiosity, his gaze lingering on the Supervisor's badge in Fan Xian's hand. "My master has been working in the Supervisory Bureau for a long time, but his status isn't high. Even if he works for another thirty years, he might not reach your position."
"That's why I guessed that the savior Wang Qinian mentioned must be a big shot in the Censorate, the one who could give you the Ti Si token."
They can casually appoint such important positions.
That means only one person can do it.
That's the head of the Inspection House!
Fan Xian suddenly realized something. He touched his waist token and confirmed its importance once again. He had obtained it a long time ago, but he didn't know where it came from, or whether it was because of his father or his mother.
He became increasingly interested and deliberately repeated Chen Pingping's name, which was like a nightmare to Si Lili, in front of her, "King of the Night... then he must be very powerful?"
"I haven't heard Master mention that, but I've heard that he has a heavily armored cavalry unit called the Black Riders. They are all elites selected from the army, and you need at least a sixth-rank strength to join them. An eighth-rank cultivation level is only enough for a captain. Their equipment is extremely sophisticated, and their combat power is exceptionally astonishing!"
Zhang Tian pretended to be deep in thought and recalled, "It seems that many years ago on the battlefield, I accomplished the feat of breaking through a ten-thousand-strong army formation with only a few hundred cavalrymen, fighting to the death and refusing to retreat. I was extremely powerful."
Heavy cavalry.
Each of them is at least a sixth-rank master capable of taking on dozens of opponents.
Moreover, they have undergone special training.
Know how to cooperate.
Moreover, they were fearless and undaunted.
These combined factors even made Fan Xian gasp in astonishment, "What a living King of Qin!"
Upon learning that he had such powerful backers in the capital, he immediately devised a way to deal with the difficulties posed by the Censorate member named Zhu Ge.
But Fan Xian was cautious.
He didn't entirely consider Chen Pingping, whom he had never met, as his trump card. Instead, he asked Wang Qinian, "Are you a local from Beijing?"
"Of course, that's the real deal."
Wang Qinian asked with curiosity, "What does Lord Fan want me to do?"
"Help me spread some news in the capital, preferably involving the surrounding areas, the wider the better. Just say that Fan Xian was assassinated by the Northern Qi Kingdom, was seriously injured, and is recuperating at the Fan residence."
Fan Xian's words.
This immediately confused Wang Qinian.
What's the point of spreading this news?
Only Zhang Tian knew the truth: Fan Xian was spreading this news to find Wu Zhu, whose memory was somewhat distorted. Wu Zhu was searching for things related to Ye Qingmei from back then. Although his exact whereabouts were unknown, he was somewhere near the capital.
As long as the other person is there.
This chaotic capital city will never be turned upside down.
Fan Xian casually crossed his arms, looked up at the sky, and said quietly, "Then let the storm in this capital city rage even more fiercely!"
Si Gu Jian.
Ye Liuyun.
Uncle Wuzhu.
A hidden hand lurking in the shadows, intent on killing him.
Chen Pingping, the King of the Night.
Northern Qi assassins...
Come on! Come on, everyone!
……
Soul Space.
In Joy of Life, Zhang Tian shared his recent experiences with his two other selves. Since it had only been five or six days since their last meeting, he hadn't gained much. He had simply combined the Thirteen Styles of Hengshan Cloud and Mist from the Hundred Transformations of the Smiling Proud Wanderer with a bit of the Flowing Cloud Scattered Hand, upgrading it into the Cloud and Mist Scattered Hand.
Judging solely from the skill level...
It is already comparable to the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique.
Moreover, when used, it can be combined with Arthur's talent silence each time, which can be said to make its power even more powerful.
"Fan Xian is going to call Wu Zhu back."
"Although he wasn't seriously injured in Niulan Street, and Teng Zijing didn't die there, given his personality, he probably won't give up investigating this matter, since it's a lead in the investigation of the person who killed his mother, Ye Qingmei, back then."
"That old scheming bastard Chen Pingping is coming back too."
"Si Gu Jian's disciples will soon hear the news from Niulan Street, and they will definitely not be able to swallow this insult and will come looking for trouble with me."
"A storm is coming!"
Xiao Ao Zhang Tian and Du Shi Zhang Tian nodded in agreement, their expressions showing no surprise whatsoever.
Firstly, since Fan Xian entered the city, the capital has always been a place where storms gather. As the protagonist, Fan Xian has narrowly escaped death several times, not to mention the people around him.
Secondly, they had foreseen the crisis that the Four Directions Sword Technique would bring, and the greater the risk, the faster the reward would come.
"He's just Si Gu Jian's apprentice. I thought Si Gu Jian would chase after you and hack you to pieces. I was worried you wouldn't be able to handle it and might die."
"You're so smart! You little rascal!"
Zhang Tian gave a small compliment, "It's just a pity that old fox Chen Pingping is too patient. In order to avenge Ye Qingmei and deal with Emperor Qing, he even used himself as a pawn, and he didn't even tell Fan Xian."
"Otherwise, why bother going to such lengths when everything is so close?"
"It would be better to just teach the Four Directions Sword Technique directly from the shadow."
The shadow beside Chen Pingping is Si Gu Jian's younger brother, who also knows the Si Gu Sword Technique and is extremely proficient in it, even forging his own path.
His strength is as high as the peak of the ninth rank, making him an absolute master below the Grandmaster level. He can face a thousand cavalrymen head-on. Although this was only said by Chen Pingping, it is very likely that he has real battle records.
Unfortunately, he was just one step away from becoming a Grandmaster, and he couldn't cross that line.
The reason why one must break through to the Grandmaster level is that one must either face death or be reborn. For example, Emperor Qing, whose meridians were severed, survived in despair by using his willpower to reconnect his meridians and be reborn.
Either abandon everything and devote oneself to things, like Si Gu Jian who follows the sword, like Ku He who follows heaven and earth, like Ye Liuyun who pursues freedom and abandons the sword to practice palm techniques.
When the shadow lets go of the hatred for the annihilation of his entire family.
When Hong Sixiang is no longer a royal lackey, he will stand up straight.
Perhaps they can both get through that hurdle.
Become a true grandmaster!
"Haha, don't worry, just watch me then."
Xiao Ao Zhang Tian took over the task, saying, "The place in West Lake where Ren Woxing is imprisoned is not far from Hengshan. I can get there in two days at most if I travel at full speed."
"And that guy from King of Glory World."
"It's been quite a few days since we last appeared. If we wait a little longer, we might be able to save up enough gold to awaken the new hero soon! Then we can..."
"hey-hey!"
I guarantee I'll make the most of this new talent.
The three of them immediately had eyes full of anticipation.
