    Chapter Index

    Ever since Xu Qi’an had left the capital, Huaiqing had never taken the initiative to contact him.

    When Xu New Year came to visit just now to discuss the omission of the donation scheme, he pointed out the drawbacks of the new ruler’s lack of prestige and his inability to suppress the dynastic princes.

    “If only big brother was in the capital!”

    Heojiro lamented so.

    Unfortunately, since Xu Qi’an traveled the rivers and lakes, he broke contact with the capital and never sent a letter from home.

    Huaiqing certainly knew that if Xu Qi’an was in the capital, his appeal would be even stronger, and, in accordance with his past style of blocking the Noon Gate, beheading the Duke of State, and killing the late Emperor.

    He raised his arm and there were few ministers who were willing to donate silver, and no one wanted to mess with this guy.

    But Huaiqing didn’t do so, it wasn’t that it was inconvenient to ask, or that the friendship wasn’t there. It was just that he felt that if Da Bong really reached the point where he needed a person to handle everything.

    Then it’s really out of gas.

    “Did your dog-slave send you a letter?” Huaiqing asked.

    “Of course I have!”

    Prosper raised his snowy white jaw and said proudly, “Much older.”

    “In your dreams.” Wyvern was relentless in his dismantling.

    “You …….” Advent glared at her.

    Huaiqing was in a rather good mood as he picked up his teacup and took a small sip.

    Lin An left angrily, sulking back to Shaoyin Palace.

    “Your Highness, is it that you’ve been aggravated at De Xin Yuan again?”

    The personal courtesan covered her mouth and laughed softly.

    Advent didn’t say anything, somewhat mollified.

    She took the tea offered by the palace maid and did not drink it, holding it in her hand to warm it.

    After sitting for a while, Prosper said suddenly:

    “Sometimes I think that I don’t really matter to him.”

    The personal palace maid naturally understood her meaning and softly said, “Why does Your Highness have such an idea?”

    “I’m not as smart as Huaiqing, my nature is bad, and I don’t have any cultivation, in the past, when he was still a silver gong, this palace was a princess, this palace is very confident.”

    “Confidently pinching herself in front of him every day.” The courtesan added in a whisper.

    “But now the princess can’t pinch in front of him either la, I’m no use to him at all.”

    There was a rare sadness on Advent’s face.

    These heartfelt words she could only pour out to the palace maid she had grown up with.

    The palace maid said: “The slave girl thinks that Xu Yinluo’s fondness for His Highness has nothing to do with whether or not His Highness is useful. If the prerequisite for liking someone is that they are ‘useful’, then what is the point of liking them?

    “Your Highness just be yourself.”

    Prosper was suddenly a little agitated:

    “Then why didn’t he contact me?

    “In the past, when he was investigating cases, he would only think of Huaiqing, and he would only discuss everything with Huaiqing.

    “Now that he has left the capital, he has not heard from me again, and I entrusted the Secretary of Heaven to send a letter to him a long time ago, and he has not returned me.

    “Now that the Emperor’s brother is in trouble, he will be the only one I can rely on, but I can’t find him ……..”

    As she spoke, her voice lowered and she hung her head, looking forlorn.

    ………..

    Approaching dusk.

    A light golden stream of light cut across the sky above the capital and landed on the Szetian Supervisor’s Eight Trigrams Platform.

    When the golden light dispersed, it was Xu Qi’an and his group of seven.

    The supervisor was sitting behind the case, his back to the crowd, overlooking the capital.

    Miao Youfang looked around nervously, his legs actually a little soft, this is his first time to the capital, the first time to climb the legendary Stargazer Building, but also the first time to see the Supervisor.

    White hair and white clothes, it is worthy of being a divine figure ……… Miao Youfang looked at the Supervisor Zheng s back and felt a feeling of emotion.

    Li Lingsu is also the first time to come to the capital, the first time to see the supervisor Zheng, in addition to some constraints, generally quite calm.

    Luo Yu Heng waved his wide sleeve and shook out the Duo Sentiment Luo Han who was sitting with his eyes closed.

    “Go on your own; the Superintendent and I have something to talk about.”

    Xu Qi’an swept a glance at the crowd.

    It is so tempting to stay and listen, maybe I can hear the top level hidden secrets and guess Xu Qian’s real identity ……….. Li Lingsu’s curiosity was bursting in his heart, but since Senior Xu had given the word, he could only obediently leave.

    Witnessing Li Miaozhen and the others, descending down the steps, Xu Qi’an let out a breath, finally not pretending to be a high ranking person.

    “Supervisor, the State Master and I have captured the Degree of Love Rohan in Yongzhou.”

    Xu Qi’an arched his hand towards the Supervisor and bowed.

    The Supervisor Zheng didn’t seem to have heard and turned his back to him and Luo Yu Heng, not moving a muscle.

    It can t be dead, right ……… Xu Qi an belabored a sentence in his heart and heard Luo Yuheng say:

    “He’s out-of-body.”

    Huh?

    Xu Qi’an could hardly hide his surprise, not that he was surprised that the Supervisor Zheng would actually have his Yuan Shen out of his body.

    He is also counted as a regular visitor to the Division of Heavenly Supervision, the number of times on the gossip platform is not few, every time as long as someone comes, the Supervisor is allowed to wait.

    Xu Qi’an was surprised to see what happened to the Supervisor? So that came home to the “guests”, still did not return in time.

    …………

    “It’s a rare trip to the Sithian Temple, so I’ll give you two a tour.”

    Li Miaozhen lightly led the crowd down the stairs and did not go for long when she saw a white-robed magician holding a soft brush and rice paper, passing by the crowd.

    “This senior brother, where is Senior Sister Caiwei?”

    Li Miaozhen called out to him.

    The white-robed warlock replied, “Senior Sister Caiwei is reading a book in the library.”

    Li Miaozhen was taken aback, “Chu Caiwei is reading a book?”

    He said did the sun come out of the west.

    “Senior Sister Caiwei will be able to substitute for the religious next year, and nowadays she is harboring in the library every day.” The white-robed warlock explained and hurriedly left.

    Li Miaozhen originally wanted to find Chu Caiwei to be a guide, see her so busy, then gave up.

    Anyway, she and Chu Yuanjian had come to the Sitian Supervisor several times and were not strangers.

    As the group continued to walk, Li Lingsu and Miao Youfang looked left and right, curiously surveying the legendary Si Tian Supervisor.

    This was the place where warlocks gathered, and the only place where large groups of warlocks could be seen.

    Miao Youfang asked Li Lingsu in a low voice, “Why do all the magicians of the Sithian Supervisor carry pen, ink and paper with them?”

    Along the way, they noticed that the white-robed warlocks, carried paper and soft-millimetre pens with them, as if they were going to write a big letter at the drop of a hat.

    Li Lingsu mused, “Warlocks are all better at learning.”

    Miao Youfang came to a realization, “So that’s how it is, it’s really a shame that I can only write my own name, Little Master.”

    As they spoke, they came to the seventh floor.

    Li Miaozhen introduced, “This floor is where the alchemists gather, and the Dan Room of the Divine Superintendent is here. Let’s hurry and leave.”

    Seeing his senior sister’s rather scornful appearance, Li Lingsu curiously said:

    “This is the forbidden land of the Divine Constabulary?”

    He said, with a dawning look of realization, “Craft secrecy?”

    “No!”

    Chu Yuanzhuan said lightly, “It’s because the alchemists on this level are all fiendish, and if you’re someone who doesn’t know anything about alchemy, they’ll look at you with their noses and taunt you for your lack of intelligence.”

    “What a loner.” Li Lingsu asked, “If you know a little bit about alchemy, you will be honored as a guest?”

    “No!”

    Master Hengyuan said in a deep voice:

    “If you show interest in alchemy, they will recommend some strange and weird foods for you to taste. For example, melons with eyes, roast chicken with two heads, and so on. They will even encourage you to try human alchemy experiments.

    “In the entire capital, the only ones who can suppress them are the Supervisor and Lord Xu.”

    “Lord Xu?” Li Lingsu didn’t react.

    “Xu Qi’an!” Hengyuan said.

    “Xu Qi’an ah,” Li Lingsu suddenly realized, “I have heard of his great name, but I have never had the chance to meet him, this time when I came to the capital, I have to pay a visit.”

    The three Earth Book Fragment Holders looked at him with an ineffable expression.

    “What does human refining mean.” Miao Youfang took the opportunity to interject.

    “Like crossbreeding you with a pig.”

    Miao Youfang and Li Lingsu simultaneously shrunk their heads and quickened their pace.

    The group quickly left the seventh floor and encountered a group of white-clad warlocks on the sixth floor.

    “Taoist Li.”

    A white-clad warlock greeted them with an eager arch, then turned, looked at them with the back of his head, and walked away.

    “Scholar Chu.”

    Another white-robed warlock recognized Chu Yuanzhuan and greeted them with a smile, suddenly turning his head and giving them the back of his head.

    Miao Youfang and Li Lingsu froze and looked at Li Miaozhen blankly.

    “To their group, looking at you with the back of your head is a sign of respect.” Li Miaozhen said faintly.

    She seemed unwilling to explain much.

    Miao Youfang and Li Lingsu nodded, indicating that they understood.

    In the back of his mind, he thought to himself, “The rules of the Divisional Court are so strange.

    After visiting the sixth floor, they picked their way down to the fifth.

    Three white-clothed warlocks walked in the corridor, and Miao Youfang and Li Lingsu took the initiative to go forward to greet them.

    “Several senior brothers are courteous.”

    The three white-robed warlocks didn’t recognize these two, but they knew Li Miaozhen and Chu Yuanjian, and they were about to bow and return the salute, when they suddenly saw these two guys turn around in unison and aim the back of their heads at them.

    …….. The faces of the three white-clothed warlocks instantly turned red, feeling great humiliation, and whisked their sleeves:

    “Who are you looking down on!”

    Angrily, he hurried away.

    “???”

    Miao Youfang and Li Lingsu were at a loss as they both looked at Li Miaozhen.

    Li Miaozhen had a smile in her eyes, “As I said, it’s for that group of people.”

    Li Lingsu’s expression stiffened, “There’s a difference?”

    Next to him, Chu Yuanjian suddenly lamented, “In a few more years, when the disciples of the Divine Constabulary greet each other, they might have to hand each other fruits and pastries.”

    Poor Supervisor Zheng ……… Li Miaozhen Chu Yuanzheng and Hengyuan thought to themselves at the same time.

    Li Lingsu and Miao Youfang looked at each other in disbelief, not understanding why the trio’s faces were so complicated.

    Li Miaozhen said, “Chu Yuanzhen and I, along with Master Hengyuan, intend to make a trip to the underground to meet a friend. The guest room is on the fourth floor, so you can ask the master brothers of the Si Tian Supervisor to take you there.”

    Miao Youfang was a bit surprised, “Don’t you need to be questioned? Brother Li and I are here for the first time.”

    “No!”

    Li Miaozhen waved her hand, “They don’t bother to interrogate, with the Supervisor in charge, are they still afraid of someone messing up?”

    Li Lingsu said, “Underneath the Stargazer Building? Miao Youfang and I will accompany you.”

    Li Miaozhen hesitated for a moment and said, “Good.”

    The group made their way to the first floor lobby, opened the iron door to the hall, and made their way down the steep steps into the ground.

    A single oil lamp embedded in the stone walls beneath the ground dispelled the darkness.

    “The ground floor of the Heavenly Superintendent is used to hold prisoners, but there aren’t many prisoners worth keeping for long periods of time throughout the year, so this is usually the “guest room” for the two disciples of the Superintendent, who live here from time to time.”

    Li Miaozhen did not forget the introduction.

    Why do the disciples of Supervisor Zheng live in such a dark and damp place …….. Li Lingsu muttered in his heart.

    The haloed, swaying porch echoed with the sound of the crowd’s footsteps.

    Suddenly, a low voice came to mind from one of the doors:

    “What are you doing here.”

    The crowd stopped in front of that door, and Chu Yuanjian responded:

    “Senior Brother Yang, we came back to the capital to see you and Senior Sister Zhong, and in the future, we will scatter the rivers and lakes and travel separately, and we won’t be able to return to the capital for a long time.”

    Li Miaozhen said, “And what has Senior Brother Yang done?”

    As long as Yang Qianfeng is in the ground, that means he’s been imprisoned by the Supervisor again.

    Yang Qianyi had a few seconds of silence and muffled his voice:

    “It’s not a big deal, this year’s winter is very cold, the people in the capital lack of charcoal and cotton, I want to scatter all the yellow and white things in the silver storehouse of the Divisional Superintendent, to provide relief to the victims. Supervisor teacher does not agree, put me here.

    “Supervising Zheng Lao ……. Teacher always mistakes me.”

    Miao Youfang listened and opened his eyes wide.

    I am not alone in my ways, that the Secretary of State should be so chivalrous.

    “Your Excellency’s high-mindedness!”

    Li Lingsu praised, and looking in through the small window of the iron door, he saw a back figure, standing alone and proudly in the chamber.

    High Manners!

    At that moment, he heard the tall man at his back, ask in a very nagging tone:

    “I have been living in Sitian Supervision for a long time, I can’t pry into what’s going on outside. Xu Qi’an that dog thing, left the capital for more than a month, can there be news coming?”

    ………..

    After a long time, Xu Qi’an heard the supervisor exhale a long breath, and knew that he had returned.

    I didn t see the return of the Yuan Shen at all ah ……… Xu Qi an couldn t help but ask curiously:

    “Where did the Superintendent go?”

    “There was a fight with Garo Tree at the Leizhou border.”

    Supervisor Zheng grabbed his glass and took a sip.

    He didn’t say whether he won or lost, nor did he say the motive for the fight, setting aside his wine glass and looking sideways at the coiled Duo Sentient Rohan.

    Supervisor is fighting with Garosu at the Leizhou border? Is it because of me, or is it something else ………

    As Xu Qi’an pondered in his heart, the Supervisor turned around, scrutinized him, and then looked at the Duo Sentiment Luo Han in appreciation:

    “Know the alternative.”

    Xu Qi’an knew that he was referring to the matter of capturing the Buddhist Sect’s top expert to pull out the Demon Sealing Nail, and said obediently:

    “Although the State Master captured the Duo Sentiment Luo Han, it was difficult to order him to do anything. Therefore we brought him back to the capital and placed him at your disposal, Supervisor.”

    The Supervisor’s finger reached into the glass, dipped a drop of liquor, and flicked it out.

    Snap!

    The drop of wine flicked on the Duo Emotion Lohan’s brow, and Xu Qi’an felt as if he had heard ear-shattering thunder, so he could imagine what kind of experience the Duo Emotion Lohan was having.

    The old monk with long hair hanging down his cheeks shivered and slowly opened his eyes as if waking up from a dream.

    He swept a glance at Supervisor Zheng, Luo Yuheng, and Xu Qi’an, and folded his hands:

    “Amitabha Buddha, meet the Supervisor.”

    Supervisor Zheng said faintly: “Pull out the demonic nail, I will suppress you at the bottom of the Stargazer building for three years, once the three-year period is over, let you go back to the Western Region.”

    Duo Emotion Rohan pondered for a moment, “The poor monk has one more condition.”

    The old monk looked at Xu Qi’an, “Release Jingxin and Jingyuan, and the poor monk will remove the three Demon Sealing Nails for you.”

    There was no coercion, nor was there a preference for death, and the moment he saw the Supervisor of Justice, the Deity of Love Lohan compromised.

    And the Supervisor made appropriate concessions to bring the two sides to an agreement.

    “Three?”

    Xu Qi’an emphasized.

    The Degree of Love Rohan folded his arms, lowered his eyes, and faintly said:

    “Each Demon Sealing Nail has a different unsealing mantra; the Demon Sealing Nail is a magic weapon refined by the Buddha, and the poor monk has mastered three unsealing mantras.

    “If the Buddha’s son wants to unravel as much as he can, he needs the Bodhisattva himself.”

    The bodhisattva himself ………. Xu Qi’an couldn’t help but want to pinch her eyebrows.

    The four great Bodhisattvas of Buddhism, Galaxia, Pratyekabuddha, Dharma Ji, and Liuli, each of them is a pinnacle figure, and each of them craves his body.

    Let them unlock the sealing of the magic nail, simply delusional, when the time comes is Xu Yinluo packaged to send himself out, the Buddha s door cheering and encouraging waiting for the demolition of the courier package ……… He spat silently.

    “The Demon Sealing Nail is one of Xu Pingfeng’s closing layouts, the purpose of which is to nail God Shush and nail me to death. He was prepared for failure, and even if he didn’t recover his qi, he still wanted to waste me.

    “That’s why it makes sense that the Demon Sealing Nail is difficult to solve, and how is it worthy of the layout of a Tantric Second Grade Qi Practitioner when you can just grab a random Luohan and be done with it forever.” Xu Qi’an could only comfort himself in this way.

    “Which three?” Xu Qi’an asked.

    “Two in the Directing Vessel and one in the Hundred Clubs.” The Degree of Emotion Rohan said.

    The Demon Sealing Nail at the Hundred Meetings Point had already been pulled out by Shenshu, and fortunately, only one of them overlapped.

    This result was pretty much as expected.

    “I’m sorry for your trouble, Master, I’ll keep my promise to release the Pure Heart and Pure Edge.” Xu Qi’an politely folded his hands.

    Seeing that a deal had been struck, Luo Yu Heng pinched his knuckles with one hand and recalled his iron sword.

    In the pupils of the Duo Sentient Rohan, golden Buddha light flashed, and his breath climbed up in majesty and vastness.

    Xu Qi’an walked over to Duo Emotion Luo Han and sat down cross-legged with his back to him.

    Deity Luo Han paused for a moment, seemingly storing up his strength. Xu Qi’an could feel the aura behind him rising dramatically, which was the same as when Shenshu had broken his arm earlier to pull out the Demon Sealing Nail.
