Imperial henchmen? Never been struck by the sword of the Six Doors (a secret police agency).

Six doors, a large hall.

"Huang Yun, you can stay in Bianyun City," Li Junsu said, looking at his four subordinates below him.

"My lord?!" Huang Yun almost stood up, but seeing Li Junsu's gesture, he slowly sat down.

"You were born and raised here, are you willing to go with me?" Li Junsu asked Huang Yun.

Subordinates can be replaced; there's no need to force someone who might be reluctant to go along.

Otherwise... it will affect efficiency.

"How come this old guy seems to be getting younger as he gets older?" Zhong Liang asked Huang Yun in surprise.

"My lord, I want to go." Huang Yun said, looking at Li Junsu.

Ever since Bianyun City became better and better, Huang Yun had an idea: to let others live such a comfortable life as well, but he was too old to say it out loud.

After all, this sounds like something only a naive young man would say, but that's really what he thought.

“Alright, Zhong Liang, your brothers can stay here.” Li Junsu said nothing more, but turned to Zhong Liang and said.

“Yes, sir,” Zhong Liang replied.

"Why don't we take them all with us?" Su An asked, raising his hand.

“What they want is stability. They’ve already settled down here. If we take them with us, firstly, it will cause temporary chaos in Bianyun City; secondly, they might become complacent and neglect their duties while away from home,” Li Junsu explained patiently.

It's normal for young people to have a lot of questions. When he was young, he used to pester his dad with questions too, but he gradually understood them.

"I see, I'm fine now," Su An replied obediently as she sat back down.

Zhong Liang and Huang Yun were both amused and exasperated by Su An's obedient demeanor. This guy was incredibly arrogant when Li Junsu wasn't around.

"These are spirit pills. You have three months to take up your posts after the New Year," Li Junsu said, placing the porcelain bottle on the table and glancing at the three people below.

"If there's anything you're reluctant to leave behind in Bianyun City, I'll give you three days to say goodbye and adjust your mindset," Li Junsu concluded.

"My lord!" Tang Hong suddenly raised her hand and said.

"What's wrong?" Li Junsu looked at Tang Hong, gesturing for her to speak.

"Are we spending the New Year here?" Tang Hong asked, blinking at Li Junsu.

"No...that's fine too." Li Junsu, who was about to refuse, sighed and said after looking at Su An and Tang Hong's big, blinking eyes.

"Long live the Lord!" Su An and Tang Hong cheered.

Li Junsu and Huang Yunzhong looked at each other, and finally shook their heads at the same time.

"Considering that these two kids have done a good job maintaining Bianyun City, let them relax a bit," Li Junsu thought helplessly.

"Alright, I'm going into seclusion now. You guys should too, so you'd better deal with anything that's wrong as soon as possible," Li Junsu said, tapping the table.

"Yes, sir!" Su An and Tang Hong replied loudly.

"By the way, this pill was crushed and absorbed in the secret room, so don't eat it." Li Junsu stopped at the door and said.

"understood!"

Li Junsu smiled, shook his head, and walked out of the hall.

......

Inside a room at the inn.

“Write a letter to Chief Constable He, then practice the Ten Thousand Demon Palm.” Li Junsu sat in his chair, picked up his brush, and said helplessly.

On the table were neatly stacked family letters. Li Junsu looked at the letters, then waved his hand, and all the letters were stored in his Sumeru Ring.

......

"Alright," Li Junsu said, then walked to the window and whistled.

A black eagle landed in front of Li Junsu's window, tilted its head to look at Li Junsu, and opened its mouth.

"Stop lingering here. I'm going to Lingnan. Go back to your home." Li Junsu tossed the food from the window into the eagle's beak and tapped its head as he spoke.

Ever since I fed it, this little thing has refused to leave.

The eagle nuzzled Li Junsu's palm, then looked at the message tube on its talons, and took flight.

"Alright, let's practice the Ten Thousand Demon Palm next," Li Junsu said, clapping his hands.

[The Ten Thousand Demon Palm: Devours spirits and merges with yin, feeding on ghosts and devouring evil. Those who die by the Ten Thousand Demon Palm become vengeful ghosts, unable to escape, eternally enslaved. When their master dies, their souls are scattered.]

"No wonder they say there isn't a single normal person in the Demonic Sect," Li Junsu said, grinning as he looked at the Ten Thousand Demon Palm technique.

If this Thousand Demon Palm were to be used in a mortal village, how many calamities would it cause?

"Chief Constable Yan has taken quite a few lives," Li Junsu said, shaking his head as he recalled the overwhelming hordes of ghosts and wailing cries that filled the sky when Yan Gui unleashed his Ten Thousand Demon Palm.

"I'll feed you two or three sects then, let's use the Demonic Sect," Li Junsu said, flicking a page as he looked at the book.

The best approach is to treat someone in the same way they treat you.

......

夜晚

"Sir, Lord He is looking for you." Just as Li Junsu was practicing the Ten Thousand Demon Palm, a voice came from the doorway.

Li Junsu slowly opened his eyes, and the dark purple demonic energy that had gathered in his hands instantly dissipated.

"The Ten Thousand Demon Palm technique is difficult." Li Junsu shook his head helplessly as he watched the demonic energy dissipate in the air.

He always felt that his system was running somewhat sluggishly, but he didn't know why.

......

hall

"Is there anything I should be careful about here?" As soon as Li Junsu appeared, He Ning poured himself a glass of wine and then asked.

"Keep an eye on the constables and the people coming out of Hujifang. That's all," Li Junsu said with a shrug.

“Let me remind you, the imperial control over Lingnan couldn’t reach that place before, and with the compromise of those good-for-nothings, the Jianghu forces in Lingnan are much more arrogant than you think,” He Ning said, picking up a piece of food.

"I understand," Li Junsu nodded and said.

"And then there's Juyilou. That bastard is just using Fuyilou's name to get ahead. They should be your main target. Be careful," He Ning added.

"I understand," Li Junsu nodded and said.

Among the seven great buildings in the world, the most prominent is Fuyi Tower. The leader of Fuyi Tower fought a desperate battle against the southward-moving Turks for the sake of the people of the city, and finally died in front of the city gate, protecting the people of the region.

Fuyilou is now depleted of talent because they were genuinely doing good deeds.

The remaining buildings are the ever-present Treasure Pavilion, Qin Yue Pavilion, and Chun Feng Pavilion.

On the third floor, one shop sold goods, another provided music for the upper class, and the third was a world-famous brothel.

The remaining three floors are subject to change at any time. Juyi Tower is the seventh floor of the world that was built after the war.

"Alright, I have nothing more to say. See you in three years for the performance review," He Ning said, taking a sip of his drink.

"A performance review?" Li Junsu asked in surprise.

“Yes, there will be a grand competition in three years, initiated by the Supreme Sect, in Chang’an. We will be responsible for maintaining order and reporting on our duties.” He Ning nodded and said.

"I understand." Li Junsu nodded.
