220: Convey my order and order Lu Xuan to quell the rebellion in Mingzhou!

In the northern region of the Great Xia Dynasty, amidst the boundless, freezing expanse, a fierce wind roared, carrying snowflakes. The world was pure white, as if in the pure, primordial state of Chaos.

This place was sparsely populated, with only continuous, undulating mountain ranges and snow dunes, appearing and disappearing in the storm.

Just then, a woman in a light purple robe descended from the sky, her posture light, her robes fluttering, like a purple lotus falling to the world, untouched by wind or snow.

The purple-robed woman's ink-black hair cascaded like a waterfall, loosely tied with a single milk-white jade hairpin.

A few strands of hair fell across her forehead, gently brushing her fair, jade-like cheeks.

As the purple-robed woman's beautiful eyes shifted, even this icy, snowy world could not conceal her stunning beauty.

Soon after, another woman in a red robe followed closely, slowly landing behind the purple-robed woman.

Her red robes blazed fiercely, as vibrant as fire, completely out of place with the surrounding cold.

The red-robed woman had high, arched eyebrows and lips like cherries dotted with vermilion, her Phoenix eyes revealing a mysterious allure.

Compared to the purple-robed woman, the red-robed woman appeared more enchanting and radiant.

“Senior Sister, that so-called Blackbird Guard is looking for you again!”

“What major event could possibly alarm you?”

The red-robed woman glanced at the purple-robed woman with her beautiful eyes, her arms crossed over her chest, her movements inadvertently accentuating her ample bosom!

In the purple-robed woman's hand was a purple crystal token.

Regarding the red-robed woman's complaint, the purple-robed woman remained composed, not showing the slightest ripple of emotion.

She merely lowered her gaze to the purple token in her hand, then gently pressed it with her jade-like hand.

The purple token instantly shone with dazzling purple light, spreading out in layers like ripples, dyeing the surrounding snow a magnificent purple hue.

“Lord, in Ming Prefecture, Feihe Prefecture in the southern region, a large number of White Lotus Nightmare Flowers have appeared.”

“Lao Jiahuo (Old fellow) and Mu Yun, that Lao Jiahuo (Old fellow), are entangled with a fully Cultivated Demon King Green Snake and those demonic cultivators from the Netherworld White Lotus Sect.”

“We are unable to escape for the time being, so we implore Lord to lend us assistance!”

In the silent, snowy expanse, these aged voices echoed continuously.

“A fully Cultivated Demon King?”

“Those demonic cultivators from the Netherworld White Lotus Sect?”

“Hehehe!”

“Senior Sister, it seems that those useless cultivators from the Netherworld White Lotus Sect have once again gained power from outside the Realm!”

“This White Lotus Nightmare Flower is clearly something from beyond the Great Xia Dynasty.”

The purple-robed woman merely frowned slightly at the red-robed woman's casual jest.

Immediately, the purple-robed woman's jade-like hand gently brushed the purple crystal token, and the purple light that had just appeared instantly intensified, like a purple full moon rising in the vast snowy landscape.

The next moment, a blurry figure appeared within the purple glow.

As this figure emerged, the red-robed woman beside the purple-robed woman immediately dropped her playful expression, becoming extremely solemn.

The red-robed woman clasped her hands together, knelt on one knee, and respectfully spoke.

“Your humble servant, Lin Yuexi, Vice Director of the Jiantian Division, greets Your Majesty!”

However, the purple-robed woman next to her did not act as dramatically as Lin Yuexi, but simply parted her cherry lips and spoke.

“Your Majesty, your humble servant received a message from Vice Director Li Chengxing that White Lotus Nightmare Flowers have appeared in Feihe Prefecture, Ming Prefecture in the southern region.”

“Your humble servant is currently in the northern region and cannot personally travel to the southern region. I implore Your Majesty to decide!”

The purple-robed woman stopped there, her beautiful eyes looking towards the blurry figure in mid-air.

Far away in the Imperial Capital, deep within the Imperial Palace, Xia Mingyue sat upon the Dragon throne.

In front of Xia Mingyue was a mysterious purple glow, clearly showing the faces of Lin Yuexi and the other person.

“Hmm?”

“White Lotus Nightmare Flower?”

“The southern region?”

Xia Mingyue softly uttered the words “southern region,” and suddenly, a name flashed in her mind.

Lu Xuan!

This was the boldest man Xia Mingyue had ever met.

As the Emperor, she had issued an Imperial decree to summon this Lu Xuan.

Unexpectedly, this Lu Xuan actually made her wait for over a month.

“Alright, then let this Lu Xuan quell the Chaos in Feihe Prefecture in the southern region, to offset this crime of disrespect!”

Thinking of this, a deep black light flashed in Xia Mingyue's eyes.

After she spoke a few casual words, the purple light in front of her gradually disappeared.

“Purple Yao, convey My Imperial decree!”

“Command Blackbird Guard Deputy Director Lu Xuan to immediately proceed to Feihe Prefecture in Ming Prefecture, to quell the rebellion and eliminate all demonic cultivators of the Netherworld White Lotus Sect!”

“Yes, your humble servant obeys the Imperial decree!”

In the snowy fields of the northern region, Lin Yuexi, who had been silently standing by, immediately returned to her original demeanor after seeing the shadow in the sky disappear.

Upon hearing the name Lu Xuan, a strange expression appeared on Lin Yuexi's face.

When she received this news last month, she had already found it incredibly unbelievable.

However, what she hadn't expected was that...

Your Majesty actually valued this Lu Xuan so much, even issuing an Imperial decree for Lu Xuan to quell the Chaos in Feihe Prefecture.

“Senior Sister Purple Yao, just who is this Lu Xuan, to be able to make Your Majesty make an exception and appoint him as the fourth Deputy Director of the Blackbird Guard?”

Lin Yuexi patted the snow off her knees with her hand, her beautiful eyes raised slightly, full of curiosity and doubt.

Purple Yao's eyes were cold, showing no intention of speaking.

She merely shook her head gently, a few strands of hair falling onto her cheek, gently swaying with the breeze.

Subsequently, Purple Yao's right hand once again lifted the purple crystal token, and purple light surged out like a sweeping tide!

Qingxi Prefecture, Fuzhou!

At this moment, Lu Xuan had not chosen to leave Fu City, Qingxi Prefecture, but had stayed here due to a certain matter.

Outside a majestic mansion in Fu City, Yamen Runners from the Prefectural Yamen crowded around.

Lu Xuan quietly appeared before these Yamen Runners, following closely behind the many onlookers.

“Have you heard?”

“It seems that Director Wu and his family all died last night…”

“What nonsense are you talking about? Director Wu is a Martial Artist in the Blood Refinement Realm, how could he possibly be killed?”

“Who's talking nonsense? I heard screams from afar yesterday, I just thought…”

Not far in front of Lu Xuan, two strong men seemed to be arguing incessantly.

However, one of the men, with a somewhat bronze complexion, was so busy explaining that he kept stomping his feet on the spot, his face flushed red.

Veins protruded on his neck, and his body trembled constantly, as if recalling the terrifying sounds from last night.

However, their voices were too loud, attracting the attention of the Yamen Runners in front.

At this moment, a man dressed differently from the other Yamen Runners slowly walked to the front of the crowd.

He wore a black Chief Constable's uniform, with a long blade hanging from his waist. His steps were steady and imposing. After he stopped.

This official was precisely the Chief Constable of Fu City, Qingxi Prefecture.

The Chief Constable of Qingxi Prefecture's eyes narrowed, staring intently at the two men who were speaking, and he spoke in a stern voice.

“What did you think it was?!”

“You scoundrels, hurry up and get out of here, or if you dare to say one more word, be careful, I'll arrest you and bring you back to the Yamen for severe torture!”

This furious roar, like a resounding bell, made the heads of the surrounding people buzz.

Especially the two men targeted by the Chief Constable of Qingxi Prefecture, their legs instantly went soft, and they became as silent as cicadas in winter, running out of the crowd in panic.

What did you think it was?

The Chief Constable of Qingxi Prefecture naturally knew what the man had been about to say.

It was nothing more than the sordid deeds of the deceased Director Wu.

That Director Wu was a ruthless man; the innocent people who died in his mansion were countless!

Of course, the Chief Constable of Qingxi Prefecture's stern reprimand had no effect on Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan's gaze remained fixed on the mansion, and his Divine Thought swept through every corner of the mansion like a raging storm.

After a few breaths, a hint of surprise flashed in Lu Xuan's eyes.

Indeed, it's these ghostly things again!

As Lu Xuan focused his attention on the mansion in front, the surrounding onlookers quickly scurried away.

Only Lu Xuan was left standing alone, motionless.

“Hey, which Young Master are you from? Hurry up and leave, or I don't care what your background is, I'll immediately arrest you and bring you to the Yamen!”

After the Chief Constable of Qingxi Prefecture sized up Lu Xuan, a hint of admiration appeared in his eyes.

The young man before him was tall and straight, dressed in a neat and unrestrained black Xuan robe, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes.

His deep eyes seemed to hide endless sharpness, and his every movement exuded an air of nobility.

Such extraordinary temperament, which family's Young Master is this? How have I never seen him before?

Seeing no reaction from Lu Xuan, the Chief Constable of Qingxi Prefecture's brows furrowed, but his tone unconsciously softened a few degrees.

“Young Master, the Prefect has given orders that no one is allowed to stay here.”

“Please, Young Master, do not hinder our work!”

The Chief Constable of Qingxi Prefecture still chose to play it safe, not being as ruthless as before!

If he really ran into a tough opponent, it would cause a lot of trouble.

The next instant, Lu Xuan took a step forward, and the space around him suddenly twisted.

After a flash of purple light, Lu Xuan had already disappeared from his original spot, leaving no trace.

The Chief Constable and the Yamen Runners behind him were stunned, their eyes wide open at the astonishing sight.

Everyone remained speechless for a long time, their mouths agape, wide enough to fit an egg.

What was that?

A flash and gone?

?????????????

Am I seeing things?

The Chief Constable of Qingxi Prefecture raised his hands and vigorously rubbed his eyes, then carefully stared at the spot where Lu Xuan had just stood.

“Hey, did you guys see it or not?!”

“We saw it, Chief Constable. That person just now seemed to… seemed to… disappear into thin air.”

Upon hearing this, the Chief Constable of Qingxi Prefecture's face turned pale and extremely unsightly.

Could it be that those ghostly things can still be seen during the day?

How could he, a Martial Artist in the Blood Refinement Realm, not feel even a trace of Yin Qi?

It seemed that the young man just now must have Cultivated a Martial Art Body Technique, making his speed beyond their imagination.

Yes, it must be so!

“Alright, don't overthink it.”

“That person's Martial Art Body Technique was extremely proficient, which is why you couldn't see clearly.”

“I saw it perfectly clear just now!”

To stabilize morale, the Chief Constable of Qingxi Prefecture finally closed his eyes and spouted a few random words.

Deep within the mansion, in a terrifyingly silent courtyard, a strong smell of blood still lingered in the air.

The mottled, withered courtyard walls and the decaying lawn were splattered with dried blood, as if one were in Hell.

In an instant, in a corner of the courtyard, space began to deform and twist, and Lu Xuan stepped out effortlessly.

Lu Xuan's gaze was stern towards the terrifying scene in the courtyard; he paid it no mind, instead looking towards the main house in the courtyard.

Immediately after, Lu Xuan's eyes glowed with purple light, and the depths of his profound pupils transformed into two mysterious purple abysses, piercing through the tightly closed door.

The room inside was a mess, tables and chairs overturned, expensive porcelain shattered all over the floor, reflecting cold light in the dim daylight.

“Die!”

In an instant, the door was shattered by a powerful force, and two twisted, terrifying faces instantly appeared in Lu Xuan's line of sight.

Their faces were bruised purple, their eye sockets sunken, and their hollow eyes revealed endless malice.

The roars they emitted seemed to come from the nine layers of Hell, and the hair on their heads writhed like venomous snakes.

However, these two twisted and terrifying faces could only be seen by Lu Xuan.

More precisely, only a Divine Abode True Person could see them, as Lu Xuan's Divine Thought had already locked onto them.

Because they were not in the human world at this moment, but deep within another Void Realm, isolated from the mundane world.

“Is this where these anomalies usually hide?”

“Zhang Yingxue and Wu Wei, these two vengeful ghosts, were previously hidden in another space.”

No wonder he couldn't sense the source of the Yin Qi.

Lu Xuan gently raised his right hand, and the Divine Thought in his mind suddenly descended, a terrifying aura of pressure sweeping towards the two ghostly faces like surging waves.

The air was squeezed, creating visible ripples and crackling sounds.

The opposite house seemed unable to bear the pressure, shaking down a lot of dust, and the doors, windows, and walls slowly began to crack.

Lu Xuan's Divine Thought was almost tangible, transforming into purple light blades that swept through the ethereal Void Realm, precisely striking at the two twisted, terrifying faces.

The two ghostly faces felt a fatal threat and shrieked mournfully, attempting to evade Lu Xuan's attack.

However, this was merely a futile struggle; Lu Xuan's Divine Thought power easily obliterated the two ghostly faces.

However, after these two ghostly faces were eliminated by Lu Xuan, some black Qi remained flowing quietly in another Void Realm.

What is this?

Is it the Origin of the anomalies?

Anomalies are Undying and Unextinguished, that's the rule Lu Xuan knows!

Seeing this, Lu Xuan's Divine Thought power in his mind once again transformed into a giant purple hand, reaching for the black Qi.

Under Lu Xuan's expectant gaze, the giant purple hand passed through the black Qi, as if there was nothing there, just emptiness.

“Alas, it seems that even a Divine Abode True Person cannot completely eliminate these ghostly things?”

Host: Lu Xuan

Realm: Divine Abode True Person

Cultivation Technique: Burning Heaven Blade Technique 3/9, Close Distance to the Horizon 0/9, Undying and Unextinguished 2/9

Points: 29600

Please confirm, whether to consume 16000 System points to deduce Undying and Unextinguished!

Please confirm, whether to consume 20000 System points to deduce Close Distance to the Horizon.

It increased by 3000 System points. It seems each ghostly face is worth 1500 System points.

These two vengeful anomalies were not even half as strong as the previous Zhang Yingxue and Wu Wei.

Just as Lu Xuan was checking the System, a sudden movement came from his chest.

Lu Xuan frowned slightly and took out his identity token from his chest—the red crystal token belonging to the Blackbird Guard Deputy Director.

Lu Xuan caressed the token, pondering to himself.

Could someone be looking for him?

With a thought, Lu Xuan injected a trace of Divine Thought power into the red crystal token.
