Mingque Dynasty, Xuanqing City

"Oh, I'm so pissed off. Yuzhen, what are you talking about, this brat? He's a good martial artist, but why do he practice physical training? He's so close to that short-lived bandit."

In the palace of the lord of Xuanqing City, the lord Qian Buyi said to Xue Yuzhen, the little fat man's mother, who hated the fact that iron was not made of steel. However, Xue Yuzhen looked at Qian Buyi's nagging and snickered.

"That's the son you gave birth to, and you're still smiling." Qian Buyi was a little helpless.

"Brother, big brother." Qian Maocai shouted loudly when he noticed that Qian Buyi was nagging him endlessly.

"I haven't finished speaking yet. Brother, why are you in such a hurry? When Xiao Liuzi entered physical training, he entered the slaughterhouse."

"Slaughterhouse? What slaughterhouse?" Qian Buyi asked confused.

"Do you remember what Ancestor Luo said about the Full Moon Battle of Zhenjie Division that year?"

"Ancestor Luo? Are you talking about the Tumen Zhang Tu who single-handedly rescued 31 soldiers of the World Suppression Division 400 years ago from the demons outside the realm?"

"That's right, it's Zhang Tu. The Zhang Tu who has six disciples serving as the commander of the Zhenjiesi Defense Camp."

"What?"

Qian Buyi stood up suddenly, and the tea cup in his hand smashed to the ground with a clang.

"Hurry, prepare a gift, prepare a big gift. We will go to Mingque City to pay him a visit today. He saved our ancestor Luo's life, and our ancestor did not have the chance to say thank you before he died."

"My eldest brother, I haven't finished speaking yet. Why are you so irritable?" Qian Maocai looked at the city lord and was speechless.

"Not finished yet? What else is there?"

"If you continue to interrupt me with your nagging, I will stop talking."

"Okay, second brother, I won't interrupt you, just tell me."

"It is rumored that he is currently staying in Mingque Martial Arts School in a semi-retired state. It is not appropriate for you to go directly like this. In addition, the dynasty has just issued an order to supervise the prince. In response to the assassination in the forest and the adoption hall incident, with the consent of Emperor Xia, the Underworld Prison was opened. , establish the Underworld Department."

"Cooperate and do your best..."

Qian Buyi just opened his mouth, but when he saw Qian Maocai's eyes staring at him, he quickly closed his mouth again.

"The Prison Division is independent of any government office in the dynasty and has the power to act arbitrarily. Du Hong of the former Military Aircraft Office is the deputy general, Pan Yue of the Wuyuan and Cui Wanshan of the Mingque City arrest office are the staff generals, and the princess is the supervisor."

Seeing that Qian Maocai stopped talking, Qian Buyi looked at Qian Maocai with some confusion.

"We have deputy generals, staff generals, and supervisors. What about the general of the Underworld Department?"

"Longevity."

"Immortal? Which immortal? Do I recognize him?"

"You don't know him, but he is your brother-in-law."

"That short-lived robber! No way, right?" Qian Buyi's jaw dropped in shock.

Due to the rapid advancement of soul power and the specially condensed spiritual fluid of longevity, Xiaoyu's cultivation level also advanced to a small level of Qi refining seven or eight days ago.

In just over a year, his cultivation has advanced from a first-level Qi-refining skill to a minor Qi-refining skill. Although he cannot be called a monster, he is one of the few in the Mingque Martial Academy.

Students in the martial arts academy can leave the martial arts after reaching a minor level of Qi refining. Although Xiaoyu is no longer a student of the martial arts academy, Elder Man still allows her to live in Yaoyuan.

Firstly, Xiaoyu is a good helper. Secondly, this is obviously because of immortality.

This time when going to Xuanqing, Changsheng took Xiaoyu with him.

Since the two of them have grown up, they have never set foot outside their hometown of Tianyue City and Mingque City. Now that they can go to other cities to experience things, Xiaoyu is naturally excited.

In front of Hades, a dark warship over 50 feet long and another small warship about 10 feet long stood majestically.

"Brother, this battleship is so damn powerful." The little fat man's eyes widened in shock.

"Brother Changsheng, I heard that battleships can fire true energy cannons. Is it true?" Xiaoyu also asked curiously.

"Of course, but you have to use Yuan Jing."

"Yuan Jing? Such a precious thing is actually used as a real Yuan Cannon?"

"There is a gathering array inside the True Yuan Cannon. After the gathering array gathers and compresses all the True Yuan energy in the Yuan Crystal to the extreme, it will form a cluster of rays and emit them, and it can also control the size of the energy. The worst is also quite An attack from the master of Qi refining."

"Ah! Fatty, you know so much." Xiaoyu glanced at the little fatty enviously.

"Of course, we have two battleships in Xuanqing City, and each battleship carries two true energy cannons!" the little fat man said in a show off.

"Our Hell Division has three warships in total, two large ships and one small ship, which is regarded as the command ship."

Changsheng said and took Fatty and Xiaoyu to the small ship, followed closely by Dong Ping. Wang Mang led 200 Hell Guards onto the big ship.

An hour later, two dark hell ships slowly arrived outside Xuanqing City.

At this time, Changsheng frowned, because not only the guards patrolling the city wall, but also the nearly a thousand soldiers in the garrison below the city wall, all had black light spots reflected in the lower abdomen dantian.

This shows that all the Qianlaihao people in the garrison camp are equipped with holy stones. Although they are not puppets like the assassins, they are the same as the assassins' allies like the monks in the adoption hall.

Changsheng secretly sent a message to Wang Mang, asking the big ship to stay in the air and prepare for battle at any time, while the small ship slowly landed at the city gate.

The guards on the city wall were already panicking and were at a loss when they saw the huge word Ming on the ship.

In the more than a month since the Underworld Division was established, I haven't heard of them taking any action. Now that you suddenly come to Xuanqing City, what could happen?

"Why are you lying? Just stand upright with your chest raised and your head raised."

On the city tower, Zhang Lu, the deputy general of Xuanqing City's garrison battalion, shouted loudly and led a few officials to greet the Hell Ship.

"I'll wait for you to see the general." Zhang Lu looked at the token on Changsheng's waist and said before bowing.

"Go and do your business, we are here to handle private matters."

In the attic of the private residence of the City Lord's Mansion, City Lord Xuan Qing Qian Buyi saw seven figures walking over from a distance.

My little boy was carrying a seven-foot-long stick wrapped in cloth across his back. There is also a young man in a blue shirt who is handsome but without any cultivation, and a girl who is unforgettable at first glance and wearing a light green dress.

Behind the three men were four Hell Prison Guards dressed in blue shirts, wearing bamboo hats and black swords at their waists.

"The young man in the middle is probably Chang Sheng, the director of the Underworld. Elder Shen, what do you think of that young man?"

"Alas! The dynasty is declining day by day, and a brutal body cultivator is actually allowed to take up the post of general. I'm a little disappointed." Shen Yuan, who was beside Qian Buyi, sighed and said.

"Old Shen, don't say such words again in the future. No matter what you say, you are still a tribute to me, Xuan Qingcheng." Qian Buyi was a little angry.

"Let's go, second brother. Go meet General Changsheng and Xiao Liuzi."

When a few people came to the door, the Changsheng people also happened to come over.

Except for the soldiers in the garrison, Chang Sheng did not find anyone else carrying the holy stone along the way from the city gate to the city lord's palace. But now, there is only an old man in gray robe with a black light spot reflecting on his lower abdomen.

Changsheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, because from his position, he could tell that the man was not someone with a lot of money.

"mother."

After Xiaopang yelled, he ran towards a beautiful woman who seemed to be about thirty years old.

"Mom, this is Changsheng and Xiaoyu, they are my best friends."

"Mrs. Qian!" Xiaoyu bowed lightly to the little fat man's mother, and Changsheng also smiled and nodded.

"You two are really talented and handsome." Xue Yuzhen, the fat man's mother, smiled and grabbed Xiaoyu's hand.

"This is my dad." The little fat man pointed to the slightly wealthy middle-aged man in the middle and said.

"City Master Qian." Changsheng hugged his fists towards Qian Buyi, and then casually glanced at the gray-robed old man beside him.

"General Changsheng is really young and promising. Sometimes he fails to welcome you from afar, and sometimes he fails to welcome you from afar."

Qian Buyi pointed to the old man in gray robe next to him with a smile: "This person from Shenyuan is in charge of the garrison. Because yesterday Xiaoliuzi sent news that the general was only visiting privately, so other officials in the city are still on their own business."

"Responsible for the garrison camp? Aren't the garrison camps in each city under the unified control of the Dynasty Garrison Office?"

"More than sixty years ago, the original garrison garrison retired and returned home. The dynasty was temporarily unable to deploy manpower, so it was temporarily taken over by Shen Lao."

"By the way, buddy, I am the sixth eldest in the family. I have three older sisters who have joined the Lotus Sect in Dongdu Continent. I also have two older brothers who are now serving in the Jiejie Division." Xiaopang added.

The Wuji Domain has a rigid rule for male monks. Anyone who has reached the level of foundation building must serve in the continent's Realm Suppressing Department for at least a hundred years. As for female monks, as long as their cultivation reaches the foundation building level, they can also serve voluntarily.

In the private residence of the lord of Xuanqing City, everyone was chatting happily.

"I heard that the general also came from the sect of senior Zhang Tu?"

"It can be said that I came from the slaughterhouse, but I didn't have the blessing of the little fat man and couldn't become the disciple of Mr. Tu."

Changsheng silently lifted up the little fat man, and Qian Buyi also smiled from ear to ear: "Hahaha, being favored by Senior Zhang Tu is also the fate of this brat."

"But General Changsheng is even more impressive. Your achievements are well known to everyone in my small Xuanqing City, not to mention Mingque City. The general will surely soar into the sky in the future."

"Look what you said, General Changsheng is already a real general at such a young age, why does he need to soar into the sky in the future?" Xue Yuzhen praised with a smile.

"Hahaha, yes, yes, madam is right. Look at my mouth, I really can't speak."

"City Lord Qian has given me a reward. It's just a fight. By the way, when I entered the city, I saw that the officers and soldiers in the garrison were full of energy and full of energy. In terms of combat power, there should be few rivals in the same level. This is the case in the entire dynasty's garrison. Can the mansion be considered top-notch?" Changsheng asked tentatively.

"Speaking of my Xuanqing garrison, I really owe it to Shenyuan to enshrine me, but I am also a talented person in running the army."

"Oh, when did Shen Chongfeng take charge of the garrison?"

"Sixty years ago, when Shenzhen was still at the beginning of Ningzhen cultivation, I didn't expect that in the past sixty years, I would be directly promoted to Ningzhen Dacheng."

"It took sixty years to advance to the third level in Ningzhen? Isn't that so fast?" Chang Sheng was also surprised.

"It's more than fast. It's unheard of. However, everyone has his or her own chance. It's not my place to ask."

After the greetings, there is inevitably another family dinner reception. By the time Xi left, the moon was already on the branches. Changsheng let the big ship enter the city and hover over the city lord's mansion. And in Xiaoyu's doubts, he sent her to the small ship.

This command ship of Changsheng is small but has all the internal organs. There are not only sets of bedrooms and living rooms, but also a training room with a spirit gathering array.

The entire Qian family does not possess a sacred stone. This is something Chang Sheng can confirm. The only thing he is not sure about is Qian Buyi's attitude.

Qian Buyi's cultivation level has reached Xiao Juyuan level, and there are several other worshipers in the city who are also at Xiao Juyuan level. If they were to use their hands, the two hundred Hell Guards wouldn't even be able to fit between their teeth.
