Chapter 206: Chapter 203: Thousand-Mile Image, Ten-Thousand-Mile Sound! (Part 2)

Lu Xuan naturally understood Li Chengxing’s meaning and immediately responded to him.

"Mr. Li, rest assured. After I visit the capital to see His Majesty, I will definitely visit the Li Family."

Having obtained the desired result, Li Chengxing laughed heartily.

"Good, good, good!"

"Then I will be at the Li Family, eagerly awaiting your arrival, Mr. Lu!"

After finishing the conversation with Lu Xuan, Li Chengxing also spoke to Shangguan Yunlan, who was puzzled.

"Lord Yun Lan, I will take my leave first."

Although Shangguan Yunlan did not know what Li Chengxing and Lu Xuan had discussed, she dared not be presumptuous and returned the courtesy in the same manner.

"Yun Lan respectfully bids farewell to Mr. Li!"

After Li Chengxing left, only Shangguan Yunlan and Lu Xuan remained in the hall.

At this moment, Lu Xuan finally focused his attention on Shangguan Yunlan.

The woman before him had a cold yet stunningly beautiful face, dressed in a black brocade robe tailored to perfection, tightly wrapping her enticing and alluring figure.

Her skin, delicate as jade, appeared even more luminous under the black robe, like the purest, flawless white jade.

This woman was in no way inferior to Li Yanran in Lu Xuan’s memory.

Being scrutinized so blatantly by Lu Xuan, Shangguan Yunlan felt a subtle sensation in her heart.

No man had ever dared to stare at her in such a manner.

This subtle emotion, which had never occurred before, left Shangguan Yunlan somewhat off guard.

However, Shangguan Yunlan quickly adjusted her breathing, ensuring she showed little emotion on her face.

"Yun Lan greets Mr. Lu!"

"Mr. Lu, you must already know my identity."

"I am the Thousand Feather Envoy of the Black Feather Guard, Shangguan Yunlan, sent by the command of the Golden Envoy of Black Feather Guard to inspect the Profound Bird Guard records in Anzhou."

"I ask for your understanding, Mr. Lu!"

Shangguan Yunlan’s emotions were like a roller coaster, rising and falling unpredictably.

Who could have imagined that just a moment ago, Lu Xuan, who was of a much lower official rank than her,

had suddenly become the esteemed Vice Director of the Profound Bird Guard, a figure completely above her.

The Vice Director of the Profound Bird Guard’s position was equivalent to that of the Golden Envoy of the Black Feather Guard.

In other words, this Lu Xuan was akin to her mother’s Golden Envoy, a formidable existence of such stature.

Without a doubt, this Lu Xuan was completely overwhelming her, giving her the illusion of being unable to breathe.

Regarding Shangguan Yunlan’s words, Lu Xuan remained calm and said slowly.

"Lord Yun Lan, please proceed; I won’t interfere with your Black Feather Guard’s actions."

"If Lord Yun Lan has nothing else, I have pressing matters and will leave first."

"If you have any questions, you can seek out He Yan, and he will address Lord Yun Lan’s concerns."

In Lu Xuan’s hands were supreme spiritual objects and those mid-grade spiritual objects brought from the capital.

He was eager to refine these spiritual objects into system points.

Once Lu Xuan breaks through to the Divine Mansion Realm, he can traverse the entire Great Xia dynasty without any hindrance or worry.

"Oh, Mr. Lu, wait, Yun Lan still has some matters to discuss with you."

Just as Shangguan Yunlan was about to approach Lu Xuan,

a sudden urgent cry sounded from outside the hall, drawing Lu Xuan and Shangguan Yunlan’s attention.

"Lord Envoy, save us!"

"At the Wu Family mansion on the east side of the prefectural city, those ghostly things have appeared, it’s a Calamity-level anomaly!"

This plea, filled with terror and despair, pierced the air and reached everyone’s ears.

Suddenly, Lu Xuan’s body swayed sharply, transforming into an escape light, and dashed toward the hall’s exit with incredible speed!

A blurred streak of light was left behind even within the hall due to this speed.

This scene shook Shangguan Yunlan internally, warily eyeing the hall’s exit.

This extraordinary speed couldn’t possibly be achieved by ordinary martial body techniques.

Once outside the hall, an elderly man in court attire appeared, full of anxiety and with a pallid complexion.

Clearly, he had just undergone a terrifying experience, with sweat beads rolling down his forehead onto the ground, his breathing rapid and erratic.

This elderly man was none other than Hong Zhi, the Prefect of White Dao Prefecture!

Hong Zhi sensed movement ahead, looked up, and his face showed a trace of joy.

Because the person Hong Zhi most wanted to see, Lord Envoy Lu Xuan, was already before him.

"The...the official, greets...greets Lord Envoy!"

"In the direction of East City, there are ghostly elements that resemble Calamity-level anomalies; I urge Lord Envoy to investigate."

It was no wonder Hong Zhi was so panicked; the presence of ghost elements was rumored to be terrifying Calamity-level anomalies.

Since Hong Zhi had served as the Prefect of White Dao Prefecture, he had never seen the existence of a Calamity-level anomaly.

The anomaly levels are divided into Ordinary, Dangerous, Fierce, Ferocious, Evil, Calamity!

These Calamity-level anomalies could only be handled by martial artists above the Outer Gang Grandmaster level.

"Calamity-level anomaly?"

"Hmm, I understand!"

Before Hong Zhi could continue speaking, Lu Xuan transformed again into a purple light under Hong Zhi’s gaze and shot towards the distance.

His speed was so swift, like a meteor streaking across the sky, disappearing from everyone’s sight.

Unlike others who were stunned, Hong Zhi felt only full-hearted joy.

The more mysterious Lu Xuan’s displayed abilities were, the more that meant his strength was terrifying and formidable. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

In that case, handling that Calamity-level anomaly had a hundred percent certainty.

East City within the Prefectural City, the headquarters of the Celestial Sea Gang, Hua Family mansion.

After returning to Hua Mansion, Hua Tianhai sat in the reception hall with a sullen expression.

However, recalling Lu Xuan’s face, Hua Tianhai dared not harbor any thoughts.

At this moment, a few men wearing Celestial Sea Gang attire ran in from outside the door.

"Old Gang Leader, the subordinates just reported that the entire family of Wu Wei seems to have completely disappeared."

"The whole Wu Family mansion is empty, not a trace of a living being."

??????

I just assured Hong Zhi that Wu Wei from the Wu Family wasn’t killed by my son.

Now, Wu Wei’s murderer is not yet found, and his entire household has vanished.

If this gets out, others might think it’s the doing of our Celestial Sea Gang.

"You scoundrel, when did this happen, why didn’t you report sooner!"

The man standing in the center, seeing the old Gang Leader angry, quickly replied.

"Reporting to the old Gang Leader, just an hour ago, the gang members responsible for monitoring the Wu Family don’t know what happened either."

"They only saw the Chief Constable Fan Wei from the prefectural yamen lead some people into the Wu Family."

"However, within just half an hour, Chief Constable Fan Wei seemed to have seen a ghost, fleeing from the Wu Family in a panic."

"That fellow Fan Wei even lost a leg because of it."

"As for the government officials who went inside with him, along with the Wu Family members, all mysteriously disappeared."

After the man finished speaking, Hua Tianhai’s brows furrowed, and he slammed the table to rise.

Bang!

"Are you sure you’re not speaking nonsense?"

That fellow Fan Wei is at least the Chief Constable of the yamen, a martial artist with small success in Blood Refining Realm.

Within the entire prefectural city, those capable of making him lose a leg are few.

Who is so bold to dare to target Hong Zhi’s confidant?

"Old Gang Leader, even if you gave me ten thousand courage, I wouldn’t dare lie to you!"

"I even personally visited the Wu Family mansion and turned it inside out searching."

"And found that the Wu Family is too eerie; not seeing a shadow is one thing, but not even a single ant was sighted."

"That’s why I hurried over to inform you!"

Upon hearing this, Hua Tianhai restrained his inner anger and believed what the person said.
