Chapter 105: All Submit! We Greet the Honored Xuan Envoy!
As the crimson flames spread, the entire Fengyue Building was engulfed by the raging fire, and the scarlet glow illuminated the whole street.
"What’s happening over there on Pear Blossom Street!"
"There’s a fire!"
"Quick, someone come!"
"Such a massive flame!"
"Who would dare to do this?"
"Is someone really setting fires in the city?"
The soaring flames on Pear Blossom Street were visible to the citizens several miles away in the city.
There were even curious onlookers trying to rush over to Pear Blossom Street to see what was happening.
Such an exaggerated firelight, and with such a strange crimson glow, how could they not be curious?
Moreover, given the terrifying blaze, it’s sure to be a major fire.
If the citizens nearby didn’t come to manage it, wouldn’t the immense fire spread toward their homes?
A man wearing the uniform of a Chief Constable from the prefectural government, followed by a dozen government officials, blocked the entrance of Pear Blossom Street.
The Chief Constable saw the gathered city folk and immediately put on a fierce and imposing demeanor, his gaze as sharp as a knife.
"Hey, what are you people trying to do? Go back, this place has been temporarily sealed off by the authorities."
"No one is allowed to approach this place!"
And these prefectural government personnel, of course, were officials sent to assist the Profound Bird Guard.
The government officials guarded the outer perimeter, blocking some of the city folk who wanted to enter Pear Blossom Street.
The Profound Bird Guard naturally was stationed on the inner perimeter to ensure everything was foolproof.
At the nearest point to the blaze, Lin Mu looked up, the crimson firelight reflecting on his face.
"It’s where the Profound Envoy is!"
"This fire!"
"What terrifying power!"
As someone with great achievement in the Blood Refining Realm, even from nearly a thousand meters away, he could sense the power of this mysterious fire.
It’s definitely not an ordinary fire!
"This Profound Envoy is truly extraordinary."
Whether lightly flicking a martial artist of the Inner Qi Realm with a wave of his hand or these awe-inspiring flames before him, Lin Mu felt utterly shocked.
In the Fengyue Building, Lu Xuan walked out from a place without changing his expression.
Lu Xuan’s body seemed to have a mysterious transparent circular barrier, separating him from the relentless devouring flames, appearing like a deity bathing in blazing fire.
Until the Fengyue Building gradually disappeared from Lu Xuan’s sight, the towering flames also went out.
On Pear Blossom Street, the sky had already darkened, with strands of cool moonlight falling.
Lu Xuan, without doubt, directly called out the system panel to check the system points.
Host: Lu Xuan
Realm: Outer Gang Grandmaster
Cultivation Techniques: Red Flame Saber Skill 8/9, Wind Chasing Step Skill 4/9 (can deduce), Diamond Body 3/9 (can deduce).
Points: 751
Please confirm whether to consume 90 points to deduce the Diamond Body.
Please confirm whether to consume 110 points to deduce the Wind Chasing Step Skill.
system points?
Lu Xuan’s first glance went to the system points, and he thought silently to himself.
In other words, eliminating the Wind Moon Tower Ghost had instantly increased his system points by 500.
Previously in Dengfeng County, eliminating that Human-face Ghost brought him 400 system points.
Now, eliminating this supernatural entity stronger than the Human-face Ghost brought a full hundred more system points.
It seems, only a formidable supernatural entity can bring such abundant system points.
At this moment, a sharp light flashed in Lu Xuan’s eyes, recalling his last visit to the Profound Bird Guard’s archive room.
The number of formidable supernatural entities appearing within the jurisdiction of the White Dao Prefecture was extremely rare, countable on one hand.
Most were extraordinary supernatural entities below the formidable level.
However, only formidable or higher supernatural entities could meet Lu Xuan’s requirements now.
The extraordinary supernatural entities below the formidable level brought too few points.
Moreover, Lu Xuan still had to travel all over, consuming a lot of time, which was inefficient.
However, despite this, Lu Xuan would not let any extraordinary supernatural entity slip away.
After all, even mosquito legs are meat.
The next day.
In the Profound Bird Guard’s main hall, Lu Xuan calmly sat in Li Chengfeng’s seat.
At this moment, there were a dozen middle-aged men in the hall, all wearing the cyan uniform of the Profound Bird Guard; these men were all Yellow-level Profound Bird Guards.
The first wooden chair on the left side was occupied by a man in his fifties or sixties, wearing an azure uniform of the Profound Bird Guard, sitting there with a stern expression.
And this man was the Deputy Profound Envoy of the Profound Bird Guard, He Yan.
At this moment, the corner of He Yan’s eyes often fell on Lu Xuan.
Such a young appearance.
Old Li really hadn’t deceived him; the other party truly looked only about twenty years old.
Inner Qi Perfection at twenty years old was truly baffling.
Originally, when Lu Xuan left seclusion yesterday, He Yan wanted to meet this new Profound Envoy.
However, this new Profound Envoy left the Profound Bird Guard’s residence as soon as he exited seclusion to eliminate the Fengyue Building Ghost.
Thus, last night, He Yan privately sought out Lin Mu and subtly inquired to gather some information about this new Profound Envoy.
What he learned almost scared He Yan to death.
A slap sent the old monster Hua Tianhai flying?
That old guy Hua Tianhai was a martial artist with initial accomplishment in the Inner Qi Realm.
And he himself was a martial artist who had just entered the Inner Qi Realm, considering this,
Couldn’t this Profound Envoy flick him away with a single finger?
Where on earth did this Old Li find such a monster?
Could it be that this new Profound Envoy came from one of the great families in the capital?
Seeing that most people had arrived, Lu Xuan no longer remained silent and spoke softly.
"Is everyone here?"
Although the voice was small, it was clearly heard by everyone present.
Upon hearing Lu Xuan’s inquiry, He Yan suppressed the multitude of thoughts in his hearts and, clasping his hands, bowed toward Lu Xuan.
"In response to the Profound Envoy, those present are all Yellow-level Profound Bird Guards in the capital city of White Dao Prefecture."
"However, a few Yellow-level Profound Bird Guards are out on assignments and not in the capital city, thus unable to be present."
"No matter, the reason I summoned you all today, you are all aware of, I assume."
"Profound Envoy Li Chengfeng has left the capital city of White Dao Prefecture."
"For the upcoming period, the Profound Bird Guard of the capital city will be under my charge."
"Until Profound Envoy Li Chengfeng returns from the capital city."
"Do you have any objections?"
After Lu Xuan finished speaking, everyone present turned to look at him.
A few moments later, He Yan was the first to stand up, stepped forward in front of Lu Xuan, clasping his hands tightly together, and bending over to speak.
"We greet the Profound Envoy!"
Following He Yan’s lead, the other Yellow-level Profound Bird Guards also loudly shouted as they greeted Lu Xuan.
"We greet the Profound Envoy!"
