Dragon Gate Swordsman

Also, what's going on with this... this guy?

Just as Xingxiong's mind was becoming more and more confused and his body was becoming weaker and weaker, a voice suddenly came from the side.

"What are you doing?"

It was Texas. She was standing at one end of the bookshelf, looking at the two people standing close together with an expressionless face.

The cold gaze moved from Xingxiong's expression as if he had lost his soul, to Chongxiao's mouth that was about to approach, to Xingxiong's chest that had been "deformed" because the two of them were so close together, and finally a barely perceptible hint of...

upset?

Time seems to stop at this moment.

Xingxiong's body was limp, his consciousness was blurred, his breathing was heavy, and his face was flushed. He felt as if a basin of ice water was poured from head to toe, and his heart was filled with unprecedented fear.

As for Chongxiao...it was simple, he was petrified.

The next moment, a light and shadow so dim that it made people feel uneasy flashed by, and Chongxiao's figure disappeared from the spot.

The flash and run method is always trustworthy.

"This... that... isn't it... just now..."

Xingxiong believed that he had never been so nervous before. Even when he was young and energetic and took his people to see the prosperous world outside for the first time, it was not so exaggerated.

She even involuntarily glanced at the Yama Sword on Texas' waist...

But Texas just took two slow steps forward, crossed his arms and asked, "How do you feel, Ghost Sister?"

"Ah...very good, very good!"

"Really? You were really worrying yesterday."

"It's really nothing. It's just a talisman from a Shinto priest. It's not as good as a real explosive."

Xingxiong thought she was asking about yesterday's actions, but...

"No, that's not what I meant."

Texas frowned slightly, "I mean last night... I've never seen you drunk like that, Ghost Sister."

Last night? So drunk?

"Wait! How...how do you know..."

"Of course I know. Or did I give you a bath and change your pajamas? Don't you have any recollection of that?"

The second basin of ice water was poured over Xingxiong's head.

But compared to the last time, she felt a little disappointed at the same time as she was relieved... So it was Texas? That was normal. When she first moved to the new headquarters, the dormitory had not been completely renovated yet, so she lived in her own home for a while.

But when we were drinking last night, Texas was there too?

"No, Chongxiao called me when he carried you home."

"Chongxiao!? Then what happened next..."

"I drove him away."

Texas' face suddenly flashed with murderous intent, "He said he could help you change your underwear, so I asked him to help test the destructive power of the Dimension Slash."

……

To be honest, if Texas hadn't suddenly appeared, Chongxiao wouldn't be sure whether he would really kiss her.

Originally he just wanted to tease Xingxiong, but it accidentally escalated into teasing, and then developed into flirting... Even Chongxiao himself didn't expect that he would end up taking advantage of Xingxiong.

But this tofu is delicious! Xingxiong has a great figure, and it is much softer than expected!

Ahem...I need to be careful!

After escaping from the library, Chongxiao did not return to the office, but returned to the special inspection team's private lounge.

This place is similar to the library, so if you stay here for a short time, you won't be considered as slacking off... Although with Chongxiao's current strength and status, no one would gossip about him even if he slacked off.

Adjusting his mindset and putting aside the matter of Xingxiong and the potential risk of being Dimension Slashed by Texas, Chongxiao casually took out a piece of letter paper and a pen from the table.

What he was thinking about at the moment was Xiaoxue'er.

Although the Liberians mature physically and mentally earlier due to their lower life expectancy, to be honest, I still feel a little worried about letting Cher go to such a faraway country, Colombia, alone.

If only there was someone to look after him... Chongxiao thought so, but there was no suitable person at all.

Because his network of relationships has not yet implicated Colombia.

If it was Victoria, then she could ask Sviata to stay in Londinium with her relatives; if it was Casimir, he could try to contact Margaret Lingguang, who would probably give him face because he treated her well; if it was Sargon, he would have Carnerian by his side.

But Colombia... Chongxiao was really worried.

It is definitely not a good idea to persuade Xueer not to go. Looking at how excited she was yesterday, you can tell how addicted she is to scientific research.

After thinking about it, the only person I know who has a direct relationship with Columbia seems to be Muir Seth, who I met on the airship that year... The problem is that we only met once and we were not even friends. How could I have the face to ask him to look after Cher?

There is no doubt that ordinary people would definitely think so.

But Chongxiao wouldn’t, and the reason is very simple: he is too thick-skinned!

So, a letter addressed to Rhine Life...or should that be its name...was quickly written.

They had only met once and chatted for half an hour, and they didn't even leave contact information, so Chongxiao naturally didn't expect the other person to help him for free.

It was quite neurotic to send money for no reason, and judging from Muirses's good conversation and rich knowledge, he probably didn't need the money.

So what else can be used as a condition?

Chongxiao has set his sights on himself... blood with super high immunity to mineralogy!

As of now, Chongxiao is still not sure where his immunity comes from and whether it can be used in medical research to treat mineralogy.

There is no scientific research institution in Longmen that specializes in this field, at least no established one. There is one in Chernobog, but he is already a wanted criminal there, so it might not be a bad idea to give it a try while helping Cher.

After all, Rhine Life seems to have been featured in Columbia Science Magazine, so it should be a large-scale scientific and technological organization, and it is located in Tremont.

Chongxiao spent more than half an hour carefully considering what to write to Muirses. The original piece of letter paper became a draft and he had to pick up another one.

But at this moment, the cell phone rang.

Old Wei?

After seeing the caller ID clearly, Chongxiao suddenly had a bad feeling: every time this old guy called his cell phone, something bad happened!

Unfortunately, he guessed right.

Chapter 84: Gone Far Away, Gifting the Sword to the Dragon Girl

Looking at the letter in his hand, Chongxiao felt a little complicated.

Although he had long expected that Wei Yanwu contacting him privately would definitely not be good, the situation was worse than he had imagined... Chongxiao was not sure how to describe this feeling.

Absurd? Ridiculous? Or shooting oneself in the foot?

The content of the letter is very simple and can be summed up in one sentence: Go to Yumen and fulfill the promise you made.

The envelope was treated with some extremely high-level Originium technique, and no one except Chongxiao himself could open it. There was no name on the sender's side, only a seal with an extremely complex pattern... Wei Yanwu told Chongxiao that this was a secret seal used exclusively by the True Dragon Imperial Court, which meant that everything mentioned in the letter could not be told to anyone else.

Even him, the Governor of Longmen.

Then the source of this letter is very obvious, and Chongxiao has also seen the handwriting of the person who wrote the letter.

Wu Ming, a young man with unparalleled knowledge and strategy.

Chongxiao certainly did not forget the promise he made, but he felt that as the True Dragon Emperor of Dayan, theoretically there should be nothing that required his assistance.

Besides, wasn’t the Xuanyuan Sword given as a gift at the coronation ceremony?

"Yumen...Yingzhen, why do you want me to go there?"

After muttering a few words in annoyance, a ball of fire suddenly appeared in Chongxiao's hand, burning the letter ashes... This was also the request written by Wu Ming in the letter, and it was also the way that all top-secret communications in Dayan were handled.

He knew very little about Yumen, except that he had heard that the oldest brother of the tribe was stationed there all year round.

It would have been fine if he hadn't thought about this before, but now that he had calmed down and thought about it, he suddenly found something strange... If it was a garrison, then what kind of enemy was it defending against? Why was there no direct description of it online or in various books?

Most importantly, why did Ying Zhen want him to go to Yumen?

In the past, when encountering such inexplicable things, Chongxiao would go to Wei Yanwu to discuss it, but this time even someone as powerful as the Governor of Longmen could do nothing to help, because the appearance of the secret seal of the palace represented the highest level of security affairs of the Yan Kingdom, and he could not interfere at all.

Helplessly, Chongxiao could only start thinking about how to explain and say goodbye to his colleagues.

I can't say that our emperor ordered me to act in secret...

Tsk... If I try harder I can definitely defeat Xingxiong!

……

"What? You're going on a business trip again?"

Texas was shocked... How long had Chongxiao been in Chernobog? He was leaving again just one month after returning?

Moreover, as the leader of the special inspection team, shouldn't Director Xie Ming inform her first about this matter?

"I can't do anything about it. Who knows what's going on in the capital?"

"God's capital? Then you have to be gone for another month this time?"

“I don’t know, but it could be longer.”

Chongxiao is telling the truth.

He had already learned from Guo Shan that Yumen, located in the northern border of Dayan, was not much farther away than the Capital of Gods in terms of straight-line distance, but the road was much more difficult to travel, and there were far fewer mobile cities and towns that could be reached along the way.

This means that it will definitely take him longer to reach his destination, and he must make sure nothing goes wrong along the way.

In this light, it is not a bad thing for Ying Zhen to ask for this trip to be kept secret. At least it can avoid Texas and others from worrying.

"... In other words, you don't even know what to do in God now?"

"Yes!"

Chongxiao deliberately acted like a baby, but found that there was something wrong with Texas' expression.

As everyone knows, Superintendent Celinina Texas of the Special Inspection Team is always serious, at least when she is at work... She is no longer as focused on work as she was when she first joined the Guards Bureau, and she rarely expresses her emotions directly.

This is exactly the opposite of Haoyun, whose words are written all over his face.

But at this moment, Texas was staring at Chongxiao with burning eyes, as if he wanted to see something from his face.

"Is there any danger?"

"You think too much."

"Really? But I feel like you're... hiding something."

I wipe!

Could it be that you, little Nina, also have psychic powers? Or are you deliberately saying this to trick me?

Chongxiao tried his best to maintain his expression and eyes, otherwise any slight change would be noticed by Texas.

Come to think of it, she learned her criminal investigation and interrogation skills from myself... a typical case of shooting oneself in the foot.

"What is our relationship? Why would I hide it from you?"

He just laughed it off to deal with it, but Chongxiao didn't expect Texas' next reaction.

The usually majestic superintendent of police suddenly had an indescribable emotion in his eyes, like confusion, sadness, or even resentment.

And her next sentence made Chongxiao dumbfounded.

That’s right, it’s Gouda!

"Yeah, what is our relationship..."

Just a few hours later, the familiar atmosphere solidified again in the same way.

Chongxiao only felt dry mouth, cold sweat, panic and speechless... In this regard, Texas had always been very calm, as if she had already seen through everything, so even if Chongxiao shamelessly trained himself to a very high level of hair and cuticle care technology, he still couldn't figure out what she was thinking.

This is far from Xingxiong, who appears to be generous and open-minded, but is actually just a pure and innocent left-over girl.

"Ah...I mean I believe you, Chongxiao."

Without any warning, Texas' expression became serious and his tone returned to normal.
