Chapter 119 of Volume 60-120
"Take a look, young master, and see if there's anything else that doesn't meet your satisfaction. Just let me know, and I'll have it rearranged immediately."
Leng Xiao Yao glanced around at the luxurious room decorations and a smile appeared on his face as he said, "Mr. Liu is too polite, I am very satisfied."
Liu Tian heard Leng Xiao Yao's words and a smile appeared on his face: "As long as Master Leng is satisfied, that's all that matters. I was worried that you wouldn't be used to the living arrangements here, and after the battle earlier, you must be tired too. Why don't you take a rest for now? Tonight, I'll come invite you to dinner again."
"Thank you."
At this time, on the east side of Linshan City, there was a huge manor house, which was the residence of Lai Qing, the lord of Linshan City.
Although Lai Qing's estate was very large, it was far inferior to the White House. To say nothing of other things, just looking at the guards of the two families, the difference was huge. At least the guards in front of Lai Qing's house lacked the iron-blooded aura that the guards in front of the White House had.
"Lord of the castle, we have found out the reason for Daisho Koudou's visit." An old man came into the study and reported to Raikyoushin who was sitting on the top seat.
"Oh?" Lai Qing's eyes lit up slightly. He immediately asked: "Can the identity of that young man be investigated?"
The old man's face immediately showed a hint of helplessness, "City Lord, I have activated our Dark Magic Intelligence Agency, but we haven't been able to find out the identity of this young man. My subordinate thinks..."
Lai Qing saw that his subordinate was hesitant and showed a hint of displeasure on his face, saying: "What do you think? Speak up."
"Subordinates think that this young man should not be one of our Southern Dynasty's people, otherwise it would not be possible for our Dark Magic Intelligence to have such a large reconnaissance force and still not be able to find out his identity."
"En" Lai Qing nodded slightly, he fully acknowledged the words of his subordinate. After all, this Anmo Intelligence Agency was created by his family's previous generation after spending a hundred years, and countless heart and soul were invested in it. Currently, this intelligence agency has spread throughout the entire Southern Dynasty, even surpassing the current underground intelligence agency of the Southern Dynasty.
The old man saw his master nodding, and continued: "However, I think that the young man behind him absolutely has a force that cannot be underestimated, and this force is absolutely very large."
"What did you see from there?" Lai Qing's tone was full of laziness, but those who knew his temper well understood that the more he spoke in this tone, the more he actually cared.
"Firstly, I have already found out the cause of death from the corpse you brought back. The person died from being hit on the head with a blunt object, and the killer had similar cultivation to mine. However, there were stick marks left on the exploded head. Lord City, do you remember who was holding a stick-like weapon when we first arrived at the scene?"
"Staff-like weapon?" Lai Qing's eyebrows slightly moved. The situation on the battlefield at that time appeared in his mind, Liu Tian was a swordsman, he had known this for a long time, so what did it mean? Suddenly, Lai Qing remembered that when he landed, Cold Xiao Yao's hand was holding a golden staff.
"Are you saying that the young man was killed by a person?" Lai Qing's face changed color, one stick to kill a primary sword saint? What kind of strength is this! With his mid-level sword saint cultivation, it's not impossible to fight and kill a primary sword saint, as long as he's willing to pay the price, there must be a way to strike him down. However, to achieve a single-stick kill, this is completely an impossible task, unless he is a high-level sword saint at the peak of his cultivation.
"That's right, I can be sure." The old man's face showed a determined look.
Lai Qing's eyebrows furrowed into a knot. Regarding this young master who suddenly appeared, he naturally had many thoughts in his mind. Undoubtedly, there must be a huge power behind this young man, otherwise how could he have been nurtured to become such a young master? If he could make friends with him, it would be a good thing, but unfortunately, the White House had taken the lead. What if this young man was really absorbed by the White family first? That would definitely be a disaster for himself in the future.
The old man saw his master's thoughtful face and opened his mouth: "Master, do you think we should take advantage of him when he is not yet fully established?"
Lai Qing's face flashed with anger as he saw his subordinate's proposal: "Fool, can't you use your brain? Not to mention the power on that young man's body, just because he is currently in the White House, how are you going to solve it? Don't forget, Liu Tian, that old immortal, is also in the White House. Do I need to take action myself? If I do, can you and Zheng Zhong handle that young man?"
The old man was scolded by his master and immediately became speechless, not daring to utter another sound, fearing that he would be scolded again.
Lai Qing saw the fearful look on his subordinate's face and felt that he had scolded him too much, so he waved his hand and said: "You go down! I'll be alone for a while. If Zheng Zhong comes back, tell him to come see me immediately."
"Yes, Lord of the Castle."
Lai Qing gazed at the disappearing back of his subordinate, his eyebrows furrowed even more tightly together. In his heart, he thought: "Who exactly is this young man? He's actually accompanied by the first-rate magical beast of the Spirit Tribe, a unicorn! This matter is truly strange. Could it be that there are still members of the Spirit Tribe on the Maya continent? No way, I must report this to His Majesty as soon as possible."
Lai Qing thought of this and immediately got up to pull up a painting in the study, and as the scroll was rolled up, a long dark passage appeared.
Fengyu City. This is the southern border of the Southern Dynasty, connecting the Beast Country and the Northern Border, while the Southern Dynasty has stationed a group army here.
"A report..." A sudden and urgent report sounded out.
A soldier ran into a military camp, lifted the canvas and walked in with big strides, knelt down on one knee, held up a letter with a red seal and said: "Reporting to the General, an urgent message from home."
"Ah!" The middle-aged man who was examining a pile of documents on the case table, upon hearing the soldier's words, slightly changed his expression and said: "Present it."
A guard standing beside the middle-aged man quickly ran down, took over the letter from the soldier's hand, waved his hand to signal the soldier to leave, and then came in front of the middle-aged man, saying softly: "General, it is an urgent message from Liu Guan's house."
"Liu Tianjia?" Bai Meng's face slightly changed, others may not be familiar with Liu Tian, as the master of the White family, how could he not understand? He was very clear about Liu Tian's temperament, if it weren't for a huge change in the White House, he wouldn't have disturbed him.
Why Bai Meng trusted Liu Tian so much was because his father, Bai Jianmin, had unintentionally saved Liu Tian's life back then. At that time, Liu Tian didn't have the cultivation of a Sword Saint, but was just a high-level swordsman. However, Bai Jianmin thought Liu Tian had a very straightforward temperament and took a liking to him, so he directly took Liu Tian in. It turned out that Bai Jianmin hadn't misjudged the person, as Liu Tian followed Bai Jianmin for decades, guarding the border and participating in numerous battles big and small. Every time, he managed to come back alive from piles of dead bodies, and his cultivation gradually reached the level of a Sword Saint. After Bai Jianmin passed away, Liu Tian had wanted to leave, but just then, the birth of Bai Xue made him stay for another three years. In those three years, Liu Tian watched Bai Xue grow up slowly and unknowingly stayed on. Ten years later, Liu Tian didn't want to leave the Bai family anymore, so he stayed to help Bai Meng take care of the household. Actually, Bai Meng also knew that the reason Liu Tian didn't leave was because he couldn't bear to part with his affection for Bai Xue.
Bai Mang tore open the envelope with all sorts of guesses, and after reading just a few lines, his face revealed anger, and he radiated an aura of majesty as he cursed: "Damn it! This scum from Dari Island actually dared to kidnap my daughter, this is outrageous!"
"Marshal, what's going on here?" A figure walked into the tent.
Bai Mang saw the approaching person, and the anger on his face was slightly suppressed, revealing a look of displeasure: "Wang Qifeng, you rascal, why aren't you properly guarding the border pass? What are you doing back in camp?"
Wang Qifeng, 35 years old this year, is the commander of the heavy armor brigade in the First Legion of the Southern Dynasty. He achieved such success at a young age by relying on his battle achievements, and he is also one of the three great generals of the White Army, with countless military exploits.
Wang Qifeng saw the unpleasant tone of his superior, but there was not a hint of fear on his face. Instead, he showed an innocent look and called out: "General, I'm being wronged! Today is Huang Zhen's shift, you haven't gotten it wrong, have you?"
Bai Mang heard Wang Qifeng's words, his expression stunned for a moment, he only remembered that his group army was rotating shifts in three teams, and earlier he was just confused by the people on Taiyin Island, so he smiled awkwardly with embarrassment on his face.
Wang Qifeng seemed to have known that the marshal would have this expression, so he smiled and walked to the edge of the desk, laughing: "Marshal, what's wrong with you? Getting angry like this isn't worth it, is it?"
"Is there anything else, take a look yourself." Bai Meng had great trust in his three Ai Jiang. Moreover, he also knew that his three Ai Jiang all regarded Bai Xue as their own daughter, so he didn't hide it from them and directly handed the letter to Wang Qifeng.
Wang Qifeng's face was smiling as he took the letter from Xing, but his smile immediately disappeared after reading it. After finishing the letter, Wang Qifeng suddenly burst into a loud curse: "I'll f**k their ancestors! These small islands dare to provoke us? They actually dared to move our princess? F**k, General, Wang Qifeng requests permission to lead a team of soldiers back to annihilate them."
"Die, die, die! You think you can take down someone as skilled as him with just the likes of you?" Bai Meng cursed directly without mercy.
Wang Qifeng was scolded by his own general, and only then did he remember that he was a soldier. Although there were many of them, the other side's people were all masters, and even if he mobilized an entire regiment, it wouldn't be enough for the other side to chop vegetables. He smiled foolishly, scratched his head and said: "This... uh, General, what should we do?"
A look of deep thought appeared on his pale face, and just as Wang Qifeng was about to speak, a sudden urgent voice came from outside the military camp, interrupting what he wanted to say.
"Report!!!!!!" Suddenly, a urgent report came from outside the military camp. (They say that early-rising birds get to eat worms, I wonder if Coffee is considered an early-rising bird for updating so early? Let's see how many "worms" you all will give Coffee! Hope Coffee can rise early every day from now on! Requesting monthly tickets, those of you who have a second ticket please support Coffee. Yesterday, Coffee asked and immediately got over ten more monthly tickets, hoping that today Coffee's monthly tickets will increase even more, thank you.)
