Black Fairy, the master is a female ghost

In Xialou, it’s almost time for lunch.

In the pavilion in the backyard, Captain Ma held a meeting with Lu Xunhuan and others to learn about the progress of the case.

But Xiaoli suddenly ran over in a panic: "Captain, it's bad, Prime Minister Zhou is here."

When Captain Ma heard this, he felt like the sky was falling.

Having previously rejected an official, Your Majesty is still not giving up and has sent Prime Minister Zhou?

Can I refuse again?

If they refused, it is conceivable that Xialou would face disbandment.

The king has sent important ministers. If we don’t give them face, he will be furious. How can Xialou continue to operate?

But if you take this kind of case, you're doomed.

He sighed in his heart, if it really doesn't work out, then just disband. At worst, he can just quit this job. At least everyone is still alive.

He stood up and sighed, "Let's go and welcome the Prime Minister."

In the lobby on the first floor of Xialou, Prime Minister Zhou and several accompanying officials waited for a while.

Captain Ma came with Lu Xunhuan, Qingxia, Zixia and others.

Captain Ma, beaming, stepped forward and saluted, "Ah, Prime Minister, your presence truly brightens our humble home."

Prime Minister Zhou gave a bitter smile and said, "Don't be so proud. Shangguan Shangshu's murder case, Xialou, do you want to take it? If not, we will disband now."

Captain Ma's expression turned awkward: "Is there nothing left to discuss?"

Prime Minister Zhou said, "Your Majesty said it himself. If you don't accept it, then don't open it. Think about it."

Captain Ma turned around and looked at Lu Xunhuan and the others with a desperate look: "Everyone, how about..."

Lu Xun Huan bowed to Prime Minister Zhou and said, "Prime Minister."

Prime Minister Zhou smiled slightly: "Supreme Jade."

Zixia said from the side: "No, Zhizunbao."

Captain Ma was overwhelmed: "Zixia, you are not a member of our Xialou, why are you joining in the fun? Stay away."

Zhou Xiangguo chuckled: "Haha, still so cute, how is your father doing recently?"

Zixia replied, "It's okay, but the wind in the north is so strong that it makes my face a lot rougher."

Prime Minister Zhou said, "That's not the wind, it's your father, he's getting old."

He turned his gaze towards Lu Xunhuan and said, "Supreme Treasure, if Xia Lou really doesn't dare to accept it, I won't force him."

Lu Xun Huan said, "We at Xia Lou can accept it, but there are conditions."

Captain Ma quickly grabbed him and said, "Hey, you don't have the final say."

He said to Prime Minister Zhou, "Prime Minister, I'm really sorry, we won't accept it."

Prime Minister Zhou nodded and said, "Alright, let's disband. Is anyone willing to work for me in the Prime Minister's Mansion? I need expert guards there."

Lu Xun Huan asked, "Didn't you hire an expert?"

Prime Minister Zhou said, "I've invited one, but I'm afraid it's not enough. I want to invite a few more."

Lu Xun Huan pondered and said, "The Xia Lou has disbanded, and I have nowhere to go. I could work for the Prime Minister's Mansion, though. Let me consider it."

Zhou Xiangguo nodded: "I'll wait for your reply."

He turned and said to the officials accompanying him, "Wait here and let them take everything they need. Then seal the building. Give them time before dusk."

After giving the order, he turned around and said to Lu Xunhuan, "Supreme Treasure, Zixia, Qingxia, I'll take up a moment of your time and treat you to lunch."

Lu Xun Huan bowed and said, "Obedience is worse than respect."

There was a restaurant not far from Xialou. The four of them were eating while watching the people coming in and out of Xialou.

Qingxia was indescribably sad: "It's disbanded just like that. With so many people, where are we going to make a living?"

Prime Minister Zhou said, "In this chaotic situation, disbanding the group is for everyone's benefit."

Qingxia asked, "Really? They were all fine, but they were forced to disband. How can that be good?"

Prime Minister Zhou asked Lu Xunhuan, "What do you say, Supreme... Treasure?"

Lu Xun Huan said, "If Shangguan Shangshu is murdered and any of our Xia Lou members are involved, once it's discovered, everyone will be beheaded. Disbanding is of course for everyone's benefit."

Qingxia said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about? Shangguan Shangshu was killed by Xia Yin. What does it have to do with my Xialou?"

Prime Minister Zhou smiled and said, "What if someone in Xialou is colluding with Xia Yin?"

Qingxia opened her eyes wide: "That's impossible. Does anyone in my Xialou have a grudge against Shangguan Shangshu? No."

Lu Xun Huan didn't want to discuss this issue anymore and took over the conversation: "Prime Minister, I've made up my mind. I'll be your bodyguard."

He asked Zixia, "Zixia, are you going?"

Zixia nodded: "If you go, I will go too. With our skills, no matter how many assassins come, it will be in vain."

Prime Minister Zhou asked, "Zixia, I know you're cultivating immortality. What level are you at now?"

Zixia said proudly: "Ninth level of Qianyuan Realm."

Prime Minister Zhou was surprised and asked, "Really?"

Lu Xun Huan took over the conversation: "It's true, we are both at the ninth level of the Qian Yuan Realm."

A smile appeared on Zhou Xiangguo's face: "Great, I have found a treasure. Come with me later."

Lu Xunhuan asked Qingxia, "What about you? Do you want to go?"

Qingxia didn't know who she was angry with: "Why should I go? I'm not at the ninth level of Qianyuan Realm. I won't join in the fun. I'm going back to the north to accompany my father."

After lunch, Lu Xunhuan took Zixia and Qingxia back to the building to pack up their things and say goodbye to Captain Ma.

Captain Ma sighed and said, "What a sudden disaster! Have you decided where to go?"

Qingxia said, "I'm going back to the north to accompany my father."

Captain Ma nodded: "Okay, be careful on the road."

He asked Lu Xunhuan, "What about you?"

Lu Xun Huan replied, "I'm going to look after the courtyard for the Prime Minister."

Captain Ma nodded again: "Okay."

He turned his gaze to Zixia: "It seems that you chose Zhizunbao instead of my sister?"

Zixia said, "Please don't make it so life-or-death. I'm going with Zhizunbao to gain some experience. What's wrong with that? If you have nowhere to go, you can go to the north to find my father and serve as a soldier under him. That should be fine."

Captain Ma smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I'll be a soldier. That's all. I wish you all a bright future. Let's go."

The three of them left the Xialou and hugged each other goodbye.

Qingxia left alone and headed north.

Lu Xunhuan took Zixia and got on Prime Minister Zhou's carriage to the Prime Minister's residence.

In the car, Prime Minister Zhou sighed, "I thought all the masters in Western Chu had been invited out, but I didn't expect there were still two hidden in this Xialou."

Lu Xun Huan said, "To be honest, I was quite worried about you earlier. I almost wanted to volunteer to be your bodyguard, but I was afraid of being abrupt and causing unnecessary complications."

Prime Minister Zhou nodded. "Shangguan is dead, and the Queen and the Crown Prince have lost an arm. How could they let it go? It's just that something happened to the Fifth Prince suddenly, and they didn't understand what happened, so they didn't have time to attack me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Xunhuan suddenly heard the sound of wind in his ears.

He hurriedly pulled Zhou Xiangguo away: "There is an assassin."

A sharp sword suddenly came out and pierced the carriage, right where Prime Minister Zhou was sitting.

Lu Xunhuan had already flown out: "Protect the Prime Minister."

Outside the carriage, there were two masked men.

They rushed to the left and right, swinging their swords and stabbing at the carriage again.

A purple immortal sword flew away with the force of thunder and as fast as lightning.

One of the assassins had his throat cut and fell to the street.

There was an incredible expression in the other person's eyes.

What is the strength of the other party?

But he didn't have time to think.

After Lu Xunhuan killed one man, his hand shook and the magic sword flew out of his hand and shot into the chest of another man.

The man looked at the sword stuck in his chest, raised his head, and said with horror: "How is this possible?"

"Swish", Zixia swung the sword and cut his throat.

Lu Xunhuan reached out and drew his sword, and the man fell straight down.

He lifted the man's mask and looked at him, but did not recognize him.

Prime Minister Zhou got off the carriage, looked in front of the man's body, and sighed.

"Get in the car and talk when we get back."

Zixia asked, "The other person isn't watching anymore?"

Prime Minister Zhou stepped onto the carriage and said, "I won't watch it anymore. It's meaningless."
