92: Let Young Master Xuan take charge of Baidao Prefecture for me!
The archive room was very large, with over a dozen ancient wooden shelves placed within it.
Each wooden shelf was divided into four layers, and each layer neatly arranged with small scroll tubes.
To Lu Xuan's surprise, the shelves were marked with years, from one to fifteen.
"Mystic Envoy Sir!"
There were three other people in the archive room: a middle-aged man dressed in a teal Blackbird Guard uniform, and two young men dressed in white Blackbird Guard uniforms.
Blood Refinement Realm!
Lu Xuan glanced over with his peripheral vision and noticed that the middle-aged man, who had a scholarly demeanor, possessed surging qi and blood; he was a martial artist in the Blood Refinement Realm.
"Hm!"
"Xuan Xiaoyou, this is the person in charge of the archive room, a Huang Grade Xuan Niao Guard, An Qingyu."
"Xiaoyu, this Xuan Xiaoyou is a close friend of mine. He needs to check some things later, so you all must follow his every instruction."
"Whatever Xuan Xiaoyou wants to see, you give it to him. If you don't understand something, you must also explain it in detail."
"Yes, Mystic Envoy Sir!"
The three people looked at Lu Xuan, who was beside Li Chengfeng, with curious gazes.
What was the background of this young man, to be a good friend of their Mystic Envoy Sir?
"Xuan Xiaoyou, I won't disturb you anymore."
Seeing that everything had been arranged, Li Chengfeng decided not to continue accompanying Lu Xuan, so as not to disturb him.
Li Chengfeng also needed to check on Zhao Sheng and the others, especially since Li Daren had lost his right arm.
"Hm!"
Not long after Li Chengfeng left, Lu Xuan spoke indifferently.
"Please, all of you, introduce me to everything regarding transcendent ghouls and demon beasts. I only need information about them."
After speaking, Lu Xuan suddenly paused. He also remembered a wealth-delivering boy.
"And information about the Netherworld White Lotus Sect."
After an unknown period, Lu Xuan sat in front of a large wooden table, which was covered with scrolls.
Beside Lu Xuan, there were also two young Blackbird Guards responsible for organizing and delivering the archives to Lu Xuan.
Lingshi County City, Headless Ghoul, level Ferocious-level Ghoul, five years ago, led by Huang Grade Xuan Niao Guard Chi Sheng to be slain!
Dengfeng County City, Human-Faced Wraith, level Ferocious-level Ghoul, seven years ago, slain by Xuan Level Blackbird Guard Li Chengfeng alone.
Liusha County Huangshan Village, Tiger Chang Demon Beast, level Demon King, twenty years ago, three Earth Rank Xuan Bird Guards took action, and the Tiger Chang Demon King was severely wounded and escaped, whereabouts unknown.
Lanshan County City, Blood-Devouring Corpse Fiend, level Li-level Ghoul, four years ago, five Huang Grade Xuan Niao Guards went to kill it.
Baidao Prefecture Fu City, Fengyue Brothel Ghost, level Li-level Ghoul, eight years ago, personally slain by Xuan Level Blackbird Guard Li Chengfeng.
...
Lu Xuan quickly browsed the information, his brows furrowing tighter and tighter. He was not afraid of these ghostly things.
Rather, all of these transcendent ghouls mentioned above had already been resolved by others, so what use was it for him to know about them?
Lu Xuan came here to find existing transcendent ghouls and demon beasts, and then slay them to obtain system points.
After looking for so long, only the so-called Tiger Chang Demon King in Huangshan Village, Liusha County, had been severely wounded and escaped.
What was this Demon King?
"Alright, take these away."
"By the way, do you two know what this Tiger Chang Demon King is?"
"Replying to Sir, we are also not clear."
Facing Lu Xuan's inquiry, the two young Blackbird Guards shook their heads repeatedly, indicating they were unsure.
However, at this moment, the Blood Refinement Realm middle-aged man walked over, holding a thick book with both hands, and easily placed it on the table in front of Lu Xuan.
"Sir, this is a classic that records some secret histories of the Great Xia Dynasty."
"Please take a look."
"Information about the Netherworld White Lotus Sect is also included within."
Lu Xuan picked up the thick book, but he didn't rush to read it. Instead, he said to the middle-aged man:
"By the way, among your Blackbird Guards now, are there any records of transcendent ghouls or demon beasts that still exist in the world and have not been slain?"
The middle-aged man looked at Lu Xuan in surprise, then, without a moment's hesitation, said directly: "No."
"Our Blackbird Guards are stationed in Baidao Prefecture Fu City. The ghouls we know of that have resurrected are all reported by people from below."
"Then, based on the records in the Blackbird Guard archive room, Blackbird Guards are dispatched to slay them."
No one knows when transcendent ghouls and demon beasts will appear.
Only when news comes from the people below will their Blackbird Guards send people to deal with them.
"Is that so?"
"Alright, that's all."
Seeing this, Lu Xuan had nothing more to ask. He would just see if this item in his hand could bring him some surprises.
Seeing the three of them leave, Lu Xuan casually opened the thick book and quickly flipped through the pages.
With Lu Xuan's current memory, he could instantly and completely record all the contents of this book.
At the same time!
Still in the same hall, Li Chengfeng, who had finished questioning Zhao Sheng and the others, had returned here.
Li Yanran was also sitting in one of the chairs on either side in front of him.
Li Chengfeng held a piece of paper, carefully reading it over and over again.
"It's truly unbelievable."
"Someone from a small county family, able to cultivate alone to the Major Achievement of the Inner Energy Realm."
Unable to understand, Li Chengfeng unconsciously put down the paper in his hand. He truly couldn't comprehend it.
Why.
It was simply impossible for a peerless prodigy like Lu Xuan to exist in this world.
Li Chengfeng had rushed to find Zhao Sheng and the others earlier precisely to sound them out and inquire about Lu Xuan's actions.
He learned that Lu Xuan could also unleash terrifying flames, a power that seemed capable of incinerating all things.
Wasn't this the kind of incredible power that could only be unleashed when a martial arts cultivation method was practiced to the Major Achievement realm?
Just like his Li family's foundational martial art, the Startling Swan Sword Art.
Li Chengfeng had practiced his sword art for a full sixty years, yet he couldn't unleash the kind of power that Lu Xuan had displayed.
In the end, Li Chengfeng could only accept one conclusion.
This Xuan Xiaoyou must have obtained an immense fortuitous encounter!
However, Li Chengfeng didn't dare to ask Lu Xuan about this matter.
Coveting another's fortuitous encounter was undoubtedly akin to killing one's parents, an unforgivable offense.
"Uncle Feng, don't dwell on it. This person is a great opportunity for our Li family. We must spare no effort to win him over."
Li Yanran spoke at this moment. Seeing Li Chengfeng's conflicted expression, she voiced her thoughts.
"Right!"
"I, this old man who has lived half his life, am now confused. I'm not as clear-sighted as you, Yanran, little girl."
"Xuan Xiaoyou's background is clear, and his actions are all about clear distinctions between gratitude and grievances."
"Rare!"
"Rare!"
"He is indeed worth our Li family cultivating him."
Li Chengfeng made no attempt to hide the smile on his face, praising Lu Xuan's character.
"Zhao Sheng and the others said that Xuan Xiaoyou intends to join the Blackbird Guard."
"I've changed my mind."
"I plan to..."
"During my absence!"
"Let Xuan Xiaoyou take my place in overseeing Baidao Prefecture Fu City!"
