Ah Hu on the side remained silent, acting as a qualified air man.

My young master has always been narrow-minded and vindictive, but he dare not touch Fang Xingyun. Unlike the bluffing Yuwen family, this kid may really have someone to rely on.

The emperor never made his instructions clear. According to experience, only those who are attentive can appreciate the meaning of things when things are about to turn around.

The noble families were always full of suspicion and distrust: the frontier ministers and the imperial court lackeys, the capital's vassals and the local puppets...

"I can't eat Lin Huazhi here, and there's no news from my eldest brother at the Wang family..."

Under the burning emotion, Yu Wenyu hardly looked at the road.

He walked around the corner of the alley. The courtyard wall here was slightly higher, and shadows suddenly fell. His eyes first darkened, and then his vision was torn apart by a bright and cold light, like a meteor across the night sky.

"careful!"

Ah Hu shouted loudly and suddenly blocked the attack, but he was still a step too late.

I saw a line of fire burning in the darkness, with a golden sword tip at the end of the line; a few flying catkins in the air seemed to be powerless, allowing the red dragon to break in and wander around.

The majestic sword intent captured Yuwen Yu's mind;

He couldn't move, and watched helplessly as the sword came down, trying to tear his chest apart.

However, a long knife came around from behind and was placed just right in front of the sword tip.

It seemed that he was the last to arrive, but in Ah Hu's eyes, there was an unnatural pause in the opponent's sword movement, as if... he was waiting for him.

As expected, as soon as the long sword was thrust out, the tip of the sword suddenly bounced up, changing the fierce sword force into three layers of green waves.

The clear water is surging!

The transformation of the force from hard to soft was so smooth that Ah Hu's heart was shocked, but he was unable to react in time.

He only caught a glimpse of the swordsman hiding in the darkness: he was dressed in black, his eyes were cold, and the long sword in his hand was shining with a clear light.

boom! !

The sword swung across and Ah Hu was hit hard, his body hitting the wall of the alley heavily.

Just as he was about to slip, his hidden energy erupted again, as if an invisible person was grabbing him and slamming him against the wall.

The internal energy in his body suddenly dissipated, and the tip of the sword bypassed Yu Wenyu, who was paralyzed on the ground, and lightly touched his throat.

"It turns out that this person's original target was me."

"Pretending to attack Master Yu, he was actually trying to trick me into turning sideways..."

Consciousness dissipates.

The master of Eight Apertures, Broken Tiger Knife, died with his eyes open, and the two weapons did not even touch.

After a successful strike, the swordsman fled.

As if it were some kind of signal, the darkness of the alley dissipated like the ebb tide, and the hustle and bustle of the surrounding streets rang in the ears again, as if nothing had happened.

The only difference is that the once mighty guard has now become a corpse leaning against the wall.

I can still vividly remember Sanheng's swordplay, but I never saw him use it again...

Yu Wenyu only felt a heat under his crotch and could not think of anything. He ran desperately towards the mansion, stumbling like a dog that had lost its soul.

...

...

Young Master Yu fled from the alley, and a handsome young man appeared at the end of the alley.

He put away the blood-stained handkerchief and sheathed his sword as if nothing had happened.

The time stuck just right.

During these few days, in addition to chatting with Lao Liu, Fang Xiwen also secretly investigated some things with Captain Sun, including Yu Wenyu's route home.

There were several diverging points, but this alley was unavoidable; he seemed to like the locust tree in the yard next to it very much, and he would always stop here for a while.

After escaping from Lixiang Tower and apologizing to the maid, Fang Xiwen took off his disguise on the road and ambushed there in advance with his extraordinary lightness skills.

With just two strikes, the Broken Tiger Blade died in the alley.

He himself was a little surprised. Usually Fang Xiwen felt that he was not very strong, as if everyone he met could defeat him, but when he thought about it carefully, who were they——

The Lingjian Fairy who can slash nine orifices with six orifices, the future Biluo Sword Fairy, the first of the young generation of Mie Tianmen...

It can only be said that the matching technology is not very good.

"Hello, Mr. Fang."

He had just walked a few steps out of the alley when someone called him.

When I turned around, the woman in the light gauze sleeves was standing there. Her oval face was thinner, but more beautiful. The star-like headdress on her forehead was twinkling, and her peach blossom eyes were a little hazy.

With the ability of the outside scene, this battle could not be hidden from Lin Huazhi. She was a little surprised.

This guy's gentle appearance is too deceptive. He always looks smiling, which makes people forget unconsciously that he is a famous... young man on the human list.

"Lin Huazhi? I'm glad to see you. You're putting on so much airs."

Hearing this, Fang Xiwen stopped and looked over with a smile on her face.

The two looked at each other; he could see that the girl had lost some weight, her brows showed a hint of fatigue, and her restrained temperament had a hint of the demeanor of a superior.

There are limits to what can happen. The two used to be good friends who could tease each other, but now it seems...

"I'm putting on airs?" Lin Huazhi pointed at herself, furious. "Do you know that maid... Forget it, come here."

The woman grabbed his wrist without saying a word, and the scene around them kept changing. The street was torn into a distorted painting... After a few breaths, the two appeared in front of the City Lord's Mansion.

"Do you know how tired I am? I was really blinded by greed when I accepted this job. You only send me a letter every few months..."

Lin Huazhi dragged him into the mansion, cursing. Her movements were a bit rough, but Fang Xiwen immediately became happy.

Nothing has changed.

Thinking of this, he smiled and saluted: "Although it's a little late, I still congratulate Master Lin for proving the Dao. From now on, the world is wide and the sky is wide, and you live as long as the Southern Mountains..."

"What bullshit are you talking about." Lin Huazhi cursed with a smile and took him to the office in the mansion.

After all, I had only lived there for a few months, and everything inside was still in the old style, like the desk, memorial table, weapon rack, etc., which were all original and cold and hard.

The tasseled jade bed beside it, the coiled incense burner in the corner, and the palace fan on the table were all things that Lin Huazhi brought with her.

These were all neatly arranged, with the corrected documents stacked on one side and the case reports spread out on the table in chronological order...

"This office environment is amazing, Director Lin. Xingchu wants you to gain experience here," Fang Xiwen said with emotion. "When you return to the headquarters, I guess you'll be promoted."

"Yes, yes, thanks to your good wishes, I will become a seven-star soon." Lin Huazhi rolled her eyes.

The two sat opposite each other on the empty desk. The woman raised her eyebrows and said, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

"No, I have my own arrangements."

That was a warning to Yuwen Yu.

In fact, the result would be the same whether he was killed with Duanhu Dao or not. As long as he could reveal the characteristics of the "Shocking Book", the purpose of further beating would be achieved.

If it was an ordinary assassin, Yuwen Yu would have found the person after digging all over Xingping City, and would probably have put pressure on Xinggong;

But that was the assassin who created the Shocking Book.

As soon as the third son of the Fang family showed up, an assassin attacked him. You could tell who the assassin was even with your butt.

During this period, Duanhudao aided and abetted the evil and had a long criminal record, so Fang Xiwen showed no mercy to him.

“…Are you really here on orders?”

Hearing this, Fang Xiwen casually threw down two array plates and approached mysteriously: "What do you think?"

"No way."

"I didn't follow any orders. I scared him."

"Hahaha, you are such a bad boy. Look at Yuwen Yu crawling like a dog..." Lin Huazhi clapped her hands and cheered. She has always wanted to see this scene.

During her tenure as director, Yuwen Yu had caused countless troubles, but he was unable to move, like a dog-skin plaster.

Seeing that Fang Xiwen said that he had his own plans, she certainly wouldn't ask any more questions.

After chatting for a while, Lin Huazhi was very happy that her friend came to visit. She stood up and said, "By the way, I forgot to bring you tea. What do you want to drink?"

"It's all right."

"Then let's drink Phoenix Orchid. A few days ago, the young master sent someone to bring some flower tea to show off, but no one came. You're lucky."

It was obvious that City Lord Lin was really happy. He didn't call anyone but bent down to search for it himself.

"Where is it, where is it..."

She was seen sticking her butt out and mumbling something;

The snow-white skirt fell down, outlining two beautiful shapes with a line in the middle... Fang Xiwen instantly looked away and began to hate his superhuman memory.

What did you do when you remember it so clearly?!

Lin Huazhi quickly found the jars and brewed a pot of scented tea smoothly. The rich fragrance immediately filled the room.

"How about it?"

"It tastes great, and the movements are pleasing to the eye," Fang Xiwen took a sip and gave a thumbs up, "I didn't expect that Master Lin had this skill."

"I've practiced it before." She thought to herself that at that time she really thought she was going to be sent to be a maid, so she studied it carefully for a long time.

But now it's impossible.

After a few months, both of them have changed a lot.

His gentle jade-like appearance began to peel off, revealing something sharper inside; her reckless temperament also gradually subsided, and her straightforward look was only shown to specific people.

"Yeah, I don't know why you came here, just to see me?"

"Well, I heard something happened here and I'm worried, and I also have something to discuss with Xing Chu."

Lin Huazhi felt warm in her heart when she heard the first half of the sentence, but the twist in the latter part... made her feel a little uncomfortable.

Yes, he came to find the young master, and staying in Xingping City was just a stopover.

Like a bucket of water poured down, Lin Huazhi's tone became calm: "Young Master is honing his skills in the secret realm of our headquarters. He will not come out until he has adjusted his inner world. He will not be able to come out for a while."

"Really? Then please send her a letter for me," Fang Xiwen was completely unaware of her change, "Tell her to pay more attention to the Yun family. It would be best if I could get in touch with them."
