They are the elite of the Longmen Guards and the backbone of maintaining order in this city. They are upright, have lofty ideals, are capable, have strong confidence and will, and believe that they can cure the city's ills.

And they are like this, fully armed, and can easily flatten a gang that is thriving in the gray area of Lungmen. Why should they... bow their heads?

These young people were indeed afraid of Guan Yueli, but this fear was not deep, because they had not witnessed the terrible power that slaughtered everything like Yu Jing. They were just afraid of Guan Yueli's image, a mysterious, powerful and inviolable image.

But when Guan Yueli touches their bottom line, this unfounded fear... will quickly dissipate.

Because they were confident that even Gray Lin, the ruler of the gray area of Longmen, did not have the courage to snatch the prisoners escorted by Longmen in broad daylight, so why should she...?

"The kids under you seem to be very unwilling." Guan Yueli looked at Yu Jing with a smile, as if he was watching a show.

"Lord Guanyue's story has been completely forgotten..." Yu Jing sighed softly, "Lord Guanyue, please don't attack these young people. I will leave them to you."

He turned around and gave orders to the stunned Guards with a stern expression:

"I said, let him go!"

The majesty and oppression accumulated over the past twenty years silenced the originally noisy team in an instant. The young people stared at their superiors with all kinds of eyes, puzzled, bewildered, contemptuous, angry...all kinds of expressions, but there was no calmness, no obedience, and no understanding.

This is natural. Yu Jing has already made up his mind. He feels that... it is time for him to retire.

As long as I can preserve this batch of seedlings, my face will not matter, and those old friends will not blame me for losing face for the Guard Bureau.

But at this moment, at this moment, Yu Jing heard the three words he least wanted to hear.

"I reject!"

A cold and decisive female voice rang out from the team.

The girl with a stern expression walked out of the team, holding the hilt of the knife in her hand. She looked fearlessly at her frightened and angry superior and said firmly:

"Our mission is to escort the prisoner, Sashi, to the Imperial Guards for interrogation, determine his guilt, and bring him to trial."

"I don't know why you would choose to hand over such an important prisoner to a woman of unknown origin!"

The noise started again. With someone speaking out, the police officers who had been barely holding back started to get agitated again.

They couldn't accept this just as much as the girl who stepped out.

"Officer Chen Huijie!"

Yu Jing's tone was angry and anxious, his eyes filled with sadness and helplessness. "This is... my order, an order from the commander-in-chief of this operation. There is no reason! You just need to accept it!"

“So, I don’t accept it!”

Chen didn't back down at all. "No matter how you analyze it, there's no reason for you, sir, to hand over the prisoner to this woman who poses such a huge threat to Longmen!"

"And we have no reason to compromise with her. If she wants to snatch the prisoner, then she is the enemy of the Imperial Guard! If the Imperial Guard doesn't even have the courage to face the enemy in Longmen, how can we talk about protecting Longmen!"

Yu Jing's heart stopped beating for a moment.

"you!"

He barely restrained the urge to slap the girl in the face—because she... knew nothing!

Her self-righteous integrity...will get everyone killed!

"Alright, alright...Xiao Chen, calm down too."

Just when Chen's momentum was reaching its peak, a helpless and gentle voice that was completely inconsistent with the style of the painting suddenly sounded.

The tall ghost woman patted Chen's shoulder and whispered in a voice that only she could hear:

"Commander Yu has his reasons, don't blame him."

"Xingxiong, you..." Chen frowned tightly.

"Don't look at me like that. I'm about to get on, right?"

Xingxiong smiled brightly.

"……what?"

Chen Yan's expression changed immediately. She subconsciously grabbed Xingxiong's wrist and said, "Then let's go together..."

"No." Xingxiong shook his head slightly.

She looked at the middle-aged man who was once respected by everyone in the Guards Bureau, but now seemed to be betrayed by everyone, and said:

"I can't let Commander Yu make such a huge sacrifice, so... from now on, I'll leave everything to you, Xiao Chen."

"What on earth are you talking about, Xingxiong? Why do you have to—"

"Because I want to prove that Officer Yu is right."

Xingxiong pushed Chen away, took two steps forward, and stared back at her.

"You have to watch out, Xiao Chen."

"You have to see clearly... Sister, how strong she is."

"I believe in you. I believe that you will be the only one among all the people who still has the courage to draw your sword."

Xingxiong strode forward and walked to Yu Jing, patted his shoulder, and said with a smile:

"Don't do this to yourself, Sir Yu. Don't you still have me?"

The exhaustion on Yu Jing's face was so obvious: "Lord Guanyue...will you spare the harsh blow for Xingxiong's sake?"

"Don't worry." Xingxiong smiled. "Sister's temper has improved a lot. She won't hit her colleagues. I promise you."

"Is this...?"

Yu Jing stared at Xing Xiong blankly, then his whole body suddenly went limp and he sat down on the ground.

"damn it!"

He spat, "What the hell am I trying to achieve by playing the bad guy?"

"Hahahahaha, they will thank you Sir Yu later."

The woman laughed and continued forward, shield in hand.

Stop in front of his most beloved elder sister.

"Sure enough, Sister is just as I guessed. She came on time."

Xingxiong said with a smile.

"If you can rest a little longer, then rest a little longer." Guan Yueli stretched, "Xiao Xiao He is very punctual."

"Ms. Xingxiong, my lord, I won't disturb you any more." The crow beside Guan Yueli nodded in greeting and flapped its wings to fly into the sky.

"Who is the promise to?" Xingxiong asked.

Guan Yueli raised the corner of her mouth and said, "She's a very courageous girl. I'll let you meet her someday."

"Ah."

"Speaking of which, do you want me to cook tonight?"

"...Are you serious, sis?"

"Well... never mind, let's just order takeout, but..."

Guan Yueli tilted her head and looked at Xingxiong: "Isn't it appropriate for patients to eat takeout?"

Xingxiong replied with a smile: "I'm not that fragile, sis."

"So……"

The casual tone changed.

The woman named Guan Yueli stared at her sister. She placed her hand on the hilt of the knife at her waist and said softly:

"Do you want to challenge me, Xiaoxing?"

"You want to go against my will, don't you?"

"Yes, sister."

Xingxiong's face was neither gentle as usual nor simply calm, but something completely different from both... a passionate enthusiasm!

"At this moment, you are my enemy, an enemy that must be defeated in order to uphold my principles and righteousness!"

The giant triangular shield in her hand began to spin slowly, and the ferocious evil spirit on the shield...its fangs were fully revealed!

"Even if you..."

A huge shadow of an evil ghost appeared behind the emerald-haired woman who always appeared gentle and approachable, and her bright emerald hair fluttered in the wind.

She took a step forward, and the ground cracked instantly!

"Xingxiong...will never retreat even a single step!"

Then, the ghost woman from the East Country roared, just like the outdated, old East Country sword and halberd pieces:

"Senior Inspector of the Special Operations Team, belonging to the Longmen Guard Bureau, Xingxiong—"

“—See!”

In front of her, a beautiful woman in a luxurious kimono showed the same wild smile as hers:

"Very good...very good! Xingxiong...feel the ecstasy and anger of this moment, feel the surge of blood and the warmth, and then..."

"Remember today's defeat!"

"There is no place to return to, and no place to go. Sword Saint, Guan Yueli——"

The sound of the Mingwang's sword being unsheathed rang out along with the evil ghost's unbridled laughter.

Carry it through the sky!

"——See! See!"

Chapter 36 - Guan Yueli: This is swordsmanship (seriously)

A bladeless Nodachi looks bulky and even a little funny, but anyone who has seen how this sword can tear the living into pieces will be overcome by instinctive fear the moment they see it.

This was the case with Yu Jing. When he saw the black knife unsheathed, pure fear that he had not experienced for a long time reveled in his mind. Just standing in front of that woman... was like being in hell.

The joy in Guan Yueli's heart was so unbearable that a blush appeared on her beautiful face, and her crimson eyes were filled with pure relief and joy.

"It's been a while since I've been here...be a little more serious, Xiaoxing."

"Do not disappoint me!"

She raised her arms high, and the pitch-black nodachi split the sun in two in the sight of the Imperial Guards' officers. Her long furisode slid down, and the contrast between her slender white arms and the cruel weapon was so stark.

How could an arm like that possibly deliver a terrifying blow?

This is the subconscious thought in the minds of those young people, and it is also the thought in the minds of many people who fight Guan Yueli for the first time.

As for the latter, they have no chance to correct their mistakes.

There were no fancy moves or fancy moves. The upright long sword simply and directly chopped down, but it gave the onlookers a feeling of...unrepeatable.

It was as if she was the only one in the world who could make such a direct cut.

Onlookers can only marvel at the sharpness and beauty of this slash, but only those who are under this sword... will know how extremely terrifying it is.

Tianyuan.

In Xingxiong's vision, the vertical slash of Mingwang split the sky and the sun into two. The deep and pure darkness was like an abyss stretching between the two parts of the sky and the two halves of the sun.

The abyss was falling towards him.

But Xingxiong has never been so calm, never been so... excited!

Just as Yaksha said, following the strong is an instinct engraved deep in the souls of all ghosts.

The elder sister she admired was absolutely beautiful, gentle, free, and extraordinary... Among the countless qualities that Guan Yueli possessed that she admired, there was one that made Xing Xiong intoxicated and unable to extricate herself.

That is a power that can only be achieved by pushing the limits of human imagination.
