Thump!
Thump!
Thump!
Hurried footsteps sounded, and Han Ling and Tan Qianqiu appeared on the second floor.
"Master Chen...Master Chen!"
I've long admired your name.
I've heard so much about you!
Han Ling flattered him, panting.
"Who are you?"
Li Fan raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Han Ling with a hint of amusement.
A seventh-grade innate cultivator couldn't possibly be this tired after climbing just two flights of stairs.
Such a good performance could only come from a county official.
"I am Han Ling, the Prefect of Canghe County. I heard that you have come, so I specially invited you to my residence for a small gathering."
"How could such a place be worthy of a seasoned veteran like yourself?"
Li Fan ignored Han Ling and continued drinking by himself.
Han Ling was not angry and quickly stepped forward to pour wine.
As he poured the wine, he said, "This must be your son, Chen Shouyu!"
"As expected of the renowned young hero of Canghe County, seeing you today, you are indeed dignified and handsome!"
Tan Qianqiu, standing at the back, had a slight twitch in his facial muscles.
Only Han Ling would dare to utter such a compliment.
Chen Shouyu's face is by no means handsome.
As for his imposing presence, Tan Qianqiu couldn't see it at all.
The more he looked at Chen Shouyu, the more sleazy he felt.
Zhang Dabao, who had been flattered, finally realized what was happening.
The man before me is not only a senior figure in the martial arts world, but also a living Yama who has come to take my life!
No, this can't go on.
Although this was Zhang Dabao's first time meeting Han Ling, he had heard of her reputation as a smiling tiger.
Don't let Han Ling's current behavior fool you; once he finds out he's not Chen Shouyu, he'll be lucky to escape with his dinner from the night before.
"Lord Han, I am not Chen Shouyu."
I met this senior on the road. He asked me to give him directions, so I followed him.
"Since you've arrived, I'll take my leave now!"
Zhang Dabao said apologetically.
Han Ling froze!
Even for someone as experienced as him, this was the first time he had encountered such a situation.
This jerk in front of me has absolutely no sense of propriety.
Even keeping quiet would be better than the current situation.
"You can leave now!"
Just then, Li Fan spoke up.
"Thank you, senior. I'll take my leave now!"
After saying that, Zhang Dabao turned and ran.
Hesitating for even a second is irresponsible towards one's own life.
Only after he disappeared into the alley did Li Fan turn his gaze away.
He pointed to the empty seat and said, "Lord Han, please have a seat!"
Chen Xinchen doesn't seem difficult to talk to!
This step was provided at just the right time.
It seems he has no feelings for Qin Yu.
If that's the case, things will be much easier.
"Okay!"
Han Ling quickly sat down, leaning slightly forward, with only half of her buttocks on the stool.
"By the way, Lord Han, what's my reputation in the martial arts world? Tell me about it."
Han Ling's heart, which had been at ease, was now in suspense again. He had never expected Chen Xinchen to ask such a question.
That's not very impressive!
But ironically, he really couldn't say it.
I only remember a few things.
But I can't explain any of these things!
The Tongguanmen was destroyed, and Chen Xinchen disappeared without a trace.
Chen Xinchen reappears in the martial arts world, only to be defeated and flee to Jiangzhou.
......
Click!
The bronze sword case was just opened.
Li Fan reached out and placed the longsword on the table.
He said nothing, yet it was as if he had said everything.
Han Ling's forehead was covered in cold sweat.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore."
I came here with only one purpose: revenge!
"You know how to do it, right? I don't need to teach you, do I?"
"Chief Constable Tan, what are you waiting for? Immediately lead your men to apprehend the murderer Yang Biao!"
Han Ling turned to look at Tan Qianqiu.
"Yes, sir!"
Tan Qianqiu immediately turned around and prepared to go downstairs.
The person has already run away.
Trying to bring them back now is nothing short of a pipe dream.
Tan Qianqiu was aware of this matter, and so was Han Ling.
The two did this in order to appease Chen Xinchen first.
If we delay, things might turn around.
Wait!
When did I ever say that Han Ling was the only murderer?
As Li Fan spoke, he drew his longsword.
A sharp sword aura enveloped the restaurant.
Tan Qianqiu and Han Ling felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
With death looming, Han Ling disregarded everything else and immediately knelt on the ground with a thud.
"Senior Chen, I am merely a county magistrate."
Taking down Yang Biao is already the limit.
Even if you kill me, I can't do it!
Han Ling cried and complained, her nose running and her eyes snot running down her face.
"What a mere prefectural magistrate."
"Cannot be done."
It seems Lord Han feels that my sword isn't fast enough!
Li Fan raised his hand, and the longsword lying horizontally on the table was instantly drawn from its sheath.
A snow-white rainbow shot through the sky.
The sword energy was as dazzling as the sun.
The high walls and attics of the Weihu Hall headquarters looked as if the ice and snow had melted away.
The stationed warriors vanished without even a scream.
Most of the Weihu Hall was reduced to ashes in the blink of an eye.
Instead, there was a deep pit.
"Enemy attack!"
"Attack your grandma my ass! Run the hell out of here!"
The survivors scattered and fled.
This scene completely stunned Han Ling.
He wasn't someone who had never witnessed murder, nor was he someone who had never killed.
The number of people who died directly or indirectly at his hands was at least several hundred, if not a thousand.
But those people, when they die, will be in despair, beg for mercy, and scream in agony.
Even in death, they leave an impression.
But the destruction of Weihutang was so sudden and unexpected.
More than a thousand martial artists vanished in the blink of an eye, leaving not a trace.
The person before me is still able to drink calmly.
How terrifying this is.
"Whether it's Weihu Hall or you!"
In my eyes, they are all insects.
To crush them would only take an instant.
But I happen to be a person who believes in reason.
The reason the Tiger Hall was destroyed was because members of the Tiger Hall were involved in Qin Yu's death.
Killing you would be a bit unreasonable.
Li Fan sheathed his longsword and then took out an arrest warrant.
"This is the arrest warrant I obtained from Hejian County. There are a total of 21 people on the list."
But I think we should add another name.
"Would Lord Han be so kind as to add this for me?"
Han Ling knew very well whose name to add.
Apart from the third young master of the Chang family, there was no one else.
At this moment, Han Ling's mind was as clear as a mirror.
"I'll have some!"
Without hesitation, Han Ling agreed.
Adding my name would inevitably offend the third young master of the Chang family.
But he was only the third young master after all; his true backer was the eldest young master of the Chang family.
The eldest son, however, did not think much of the third son of the Chang family.
At least, there is a glimmer of hope.
If he didn't add it, he would surely die on the spot.
"Lord Han, I need to see the arrest warrant within one hour!"
After Li Fan finished speaking, he drew his longsword once again.
The remaining half of the Tiger Guard Hall dissipated in the sword energy.
Han Ling dared not delay any longer, so she jumped down from the second floor and rode her horse at full speed toward the county government office.
Standing in the restaurant, Tan Qianqiu was caught in a dilemma: whether to leave or stay.
"Chief Constable Tan, right?"
Can you help me with a small matter?
"Senior Chen, please give me your orders. I will do my best to get things done for you, even if it costs me my life."
"Leave no one alive from the Tiger Guard!"
"Yes, sir!"
......
Han Ling and Tan Qianqiu acted quickly.
In less than half an hour, a new arrest warrant was delivered to the restaurant.
At the same time, Canghe County was sealed off, and constables and soldiers were mobilized to jointly capture members of the Weihu Hall.
