Night Watchman: Linked to the Legend of Sword and Fairy game, strongly promoting Huaiqing.

This martial arts talent also proves to be quite strong.

"Li Xuan, recruiting you was definitely the right decision."

Nangong Qianrou said with good fortune.

Li Xuan was almost snatched away by Yang Yan.

After a moment of reflection, Nangong Qianrou added, "Oh, right, I still have to investigate Zhou Xianping, so I'll take my leave now."

Li Xuan was taken aback, then said quietly, "I hope you've gained something."

"Thank you for your kind words!" Nangong Qianrou smiled and then quickly left.

"Yeah, right!" Li Xuan uttered two more words after Nangong Qianrou left.

The murderer is standing right in front of you, and you know nothing about it.

It's no wonder there's no chance of success!

Back at my workstation.

Li Xuan summoned a subordinate and instructed him, "Compile a list of Zhou Xianping's colleagues, officials he is on good terms with, their situations, their families, and send it to me."

"Yes, Lord Silver Gong!" The subordinate quickly went to carry out the order.

Li Xuanxing's eyes narrowed, flashing with killing intent.

"I'd like to see who's making a move against me!"

The forces he offended were Zhou Xianping and his backers.

Therefore, the ten killers in the mine must be related to this.

The answer can be easily obtained with a simple investigation.

Shortly after.

His subordinate returned quickly, carrying a stack of files.

"Lord Silver Gong, these are detailed files on officials related to Zhou Xianping."

“Okay, put it down.” Li Xuan nodded.

The subordinate put down the file and left.

Li Xuan picked up the files and began to flip through them one by one.

Half an hour later.

His pupils suddenly narrowed as he stared at a file.

"Got you!"

"Sun Mingzhong, Supervising Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue!"

The case file shows that Sun Mingzhong and Zhou Xianping were colleagues in the Ministry of Revenue.

They have a good relationship and a good personal connection.

The tax and silver case involves this.

However, Zhou Xianping took full responsibility for everything, taking the blame for the tax evasion.

Furthermore, with Zhou Xianping now dead, his crime has been definitively established.

and also.

Sun Mingzhong's residence has a mid-stage fifth-rank expert as a retainer.

"It seems that Sun Mingzhong is Xu Pingfeng's remaining manpower in the capital!"

Xu Pingfeng wanted to use the tax silver case to get his son Xu Qi'an exiled, so as to seize the fortune that had been stored in Xu Qi'an's body for many years.

pity.

Li Xuan exposed the truth, leading to the failure of Xu Qi'an's exile.

"Then let's get rid of this person first!"

Although Li Xuan didn't bother with the matter between Xu Pingfeng and his son Xu Qi'an.

But now he's involved!

They were also ambushed by assassins.

He's no pushover!

Li Xuan put down the dossier and stood up.

evening.

After finishing his work as a night watchman, Li Xuan returned to his room.

Upon entering the game, the daily treasure chest has been refreshed.

"Open!"

[Daily Treasure Chest: Congratulations on obtaining: True Essence Protection Technique!]

True Essence Body Protection Technique: A physical technique that allows one to refine their body through practice, achieving an indestructible state.

The True Essence Body Protection Technique is not a physical constitution, but a physical cultivation method.

One can cultivate and refine the physical body's meridians to create an indestructible body.

"Excellent, this can make up for the deficiencies in physical strength and martial arts!"

Although Li Xuan now possesses early-stage third-rank combat strength, his defense is quite poor.

Either it pierces the body, making it impossible to defend against.

It's equivalent to high offense and low defense, which has a fatal flaw!

But now that we have the True Essence Protection Technique, we no longer have to worry about that.

Next.

Li Xuan controls the game character and initiates the storyline.

The plot involves returning to Shengyu Village, where Xianglan comes to inform her aunt, Aunt Li, that she has fallen ill.

Back at the inn, in Aunt Li's room, Doctor Hong told her that Aunt Li was beyond saving; he then talked with Xiao Huzi and learned that they could go to Fairy Island to ask the fairy for medicine to cure Aunt Li.

After a while.

A prompt pops up.

[Story mission complete.]

[Reward: 1 Mission Chest!]

"Open the quest chest!"

Li Xuan chose to open it.

[Congratulations on obtaining: Sealing Technique!]

[Sealing Technique: A powerful talisman technique of the Shu Mountain Sect. Once used, it can seal off a certain area, making it impossible for anyone outside to enter or leave, and preventing the transmission of sound.]

"A sealing technique. The exterior is perfectly disguised, but it prevents entry and exit, and the interior cannot transmit sound?"

"Isn't this an essential talisman for killing people?"

He sealed off a house, then went inside and killed someone.

The people inside could neither escape nor send out any sound.

What's even more impressive is that the scene seen by outsiders is the disguised scene during the lockdown.

"Moreover, this is a form of magic!"

"Once you master it, you can use it indefinitely."

Magic is not a talisman; once a talisman is used, it dissipates completely.

But magic is a skill.

Once you master it, you can use this method continuously.

"receive!"

Li Xuan immediately recited it silently in his mind.

Soon, a flood of relevant information poured into his memory.

Simultaneously.

His consciousness entered a fantastical space to cultivate a sealing technique.

Ten breaths have passed in the real world.

Li Xuan suddenly opened his eyes, a sharp glint in them.

"The sealing technique is complete!"

With a flick of his right hand, he cast a sealing spell on his own courtyard.

Then he lifted his foot and walked outside.
