The poorest member of the Imperial Guard, the Empress begged me to embezzle.

Swish!

Yan Qingfeng appeared in front of Chu Xiu and Li Jingtian.

"Greetings, Lord Yan."

When Chu Xiu saw Yan Qingfeng appear, he was taken aback for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face as he clasped his hands in a salute.

Although he was a third-rank commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, Yan Qingfeng was a fourth-rank junior supervisor of the Imperial Observatory.

Logically, if a bow should be performed, it should be Yan Qingfeng who performs the bow.

However, in many cases, it's not just about official rank and grade.

The Imperial Observatory held a prestigious position within the Great Zhou Dynasty, and even high-ranking officials in the Great Zhou Dynasty's cabinet had to show it respect to a certain extent.

Furthermore, Yan Qingfeng is the personal disciple of Qi Tianchen, the Grand Preceptor of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Director of the Imperial Observatory. Who would dare to underestimate him?

"Greetings, Lord Yan."

Li Jingtian hurriedly bowed.

"Don't dare to take it seriously."

"I've come here today because there's something I'd like to ask Lord Chu."

Yan Qingfeng avoided Chu Xiu and the other man's bow and spoke with a refined and scholarly air.

His current appearance makes it impossible to connect him with the domineering and disdainful person who just moments ago seemed to be the same person who didn't even put the Yang family of Hongnong in his eyes.

Upon hearing this, Chu Xiu said with a serious expression, "Lord Yan, please speak. As long as I, Chu Xiu, know something, I will tell you everything without reservation!"

Yan Qingfeng smiled and said, "Lord Chu, there's no need for such formality. What I want to ask you is, does Lord Chu wish to possess this Kunwu Divine Blade?"

"Kunwu Divine Sword?"

Chu Xiu looked at Yan Qingfeng with a hint of surprise on his face.

Li Jingtian hadn't expected that Yan Qingfeng, the Junior Supervisor of the Imperial Observatory and the Grand Master's personal disciple, would come to give his master the Kunwu Divine Blade, which he had just obtained from Yang Hong.

"That's right, none of the master's students practice swordsmanship."

"me too."

"This Kunwu Divine Blade is of no use to me."

"Therefore, I wish to present this Kunwu Divine Blade to Lord Chu."

"Don't worry, Lord Chu. With this Kunwu Divine Blade in your possession, the Yang family of Hongnong will absolutely not dare to cause you any trouble!"

"Because when they see the knife in your hand, they'll definitely guess that it's a gift from me!"

"As long as no one from the Hongnong Yang clan is a match for Master, they will never come after you because of the Kunwu Divine Blade!"

Yan Qingfeng looked at Chu Xiu with a smile and said, "So Lord Chu doesn't need to worry about any troubles that might result from accepting the Kunwu Divine Blade."

"Since Lord Yan wants to give me the Kunwu Divine Blade, I naturally have no reason not to accept it."

"As for fearing that the Yang family of Hongnong will cause me trouble."

"If I were afraid of that, I wouldn't dare to lead the Embroidered Uniform Guard for His Majesty!"

Chu Xiu smiled calmly and said with a confident expression.

"As expected of someone His Majesty has chosen."

"Lord Chu's courage is truly extraordinary!"

Yan Qingfeng handed the Kunwu Divine Blade in his hand to Chu Xiu and said, "When Lord Chu has time in the future, you are welcome to visit our Imperial Observatory. I will certainly welcome you with open arms!"

"Thank you, Lord Yan. When I have time, I will definitely visit the Imperial Observatory in person to express my gratitude!"

Chu Xiu took the Kunwu Divine Blade from Yan Qingfeng and said solemnly.

Yan Qingfeng nodded slightly, and with a swift movement, disappeared from Chu Xiu and Li Jingtian's sight.

"Sir, this..."

Li Jingtian stared blankly at Chu Xiu, still unable to believe it was real.

Yan Qingfeng stole the Kunwu Divine Blade from the Yang family of Hongnong, intending to give it to Chu Xiu.

Even if this gets out, probably very few people would believe it.

It should be known that Yan Qingfeng was famously aloof and arrogant in the capital and throughout the Great Zhou Dynasty.

There are very few people in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty who can catch his eye. Even the vice ministers of the six ministries or high-ranking officials of the cabinet cannot simply meet Yan Qingfeng whenever they want.

result……

Such a person, however, went out of his way to steal a divine weapon from the Yang family of Hongnong and give it to Chu Xiu!

"Let's go back."

Chu Xiu left behind a single sentence and then disappeared from the rooftop.

"Yes, Your subordinate obeys."

Li Jingtian took a deep breath to calm himself down, and then followed Chu Xiu back to the Embroidered Uniform Guard headquarters.

Perhaps it was this event that was so shocking.

This caused the entire capital to become deathly silent, and even the number of people walking on the streets decreased.

The silence was terrifying!

but!

As night fell.

Suddenly!

One by one, men in black appeared out of thin air around the Northern Garrison of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, attempting to infiltrate silently.

"presumptuous!"

"They actually dared to break into our Northern Garrison Command!"

Do they really think our Northern Garrison Command is without anyone?

A furious shout rang out from the Northern Garrison Command!

In an instant!

The entire Northern Garrison Command was brightly lit!

Three thousand elite soldiers, selected from the Sky Guard, the Immortal Guard, and the Divine Guard, led by Fang Heng, Pei Shiji, and Luo Tianxi, wielded embroidered spring knives and stared menacingly at the eleven men in black.

Among these eleven men in black, the one with the highest cultivation level has reached the peak of the ninth level of the Immortal Ascension Realm!

The other ten people were also at the seventh level of the Immortal Ascension Realm, or even the eighth level.

Clearly, these people originally intended to infiltrate the Northern Garrison Command and rescue Qian Zhenbei, who had been imprisoned in the Northern Garrison Command's prison.

Before they even entered the Northern Garrison Command, they were discovered.

Swish!

The Northern Garrison Commander, the Overlord Blade Nie Kuangren, appeared outside the Northern Garrison Command's office.

"Madman Nie?"

"Release the leader of the Qian Society, and we can avoid attacking the Northern Garrison Command!"

"Otherwise, we will turn the entire Northern Garrison into a river of blood!"

The black-clad man, at the peak of the ninth level of the Immortal Ascension Realm, stared at Nie Kuangren with murderous intent in his eyes. He recognized Nie Kuangren at a glance and spoke with chilling murderous intent.

A murderous aura began to emanate from each of the men in black.

Since they can't sneak in unnoticed, with their strength, they can just as easily storm the Northern Garrison Command!

"Will you make our Northern Garrison shed rivers of blood?"

Nie Kuangren laughed loudly, and an incomparably powerful aura erupted from his body. He said coldly, "I want to see how you will make our Northern Garrison bleed rivers!"

"If you don't eat the toast, you will be punished with alcohol!"

The black-clad man, at the peak of the ninth level of the Immortal Ascension Realm, gripped the hilt of his sword with his right hand and suddenly drew it, unleashing a terrifying sword aura that slashed towards Nie Kuangren.

"Killing Blade Formation!"

When Nie Kuangren saw the black-clad man at the peak of the ninth level of the Immortal Ascension Realm make his move, a murderous glint flashed in his eyes, and he shouted with overwhelming killing intent.

Keng!

The words just fell!

A crisp sound rang out.

Everyone drew their swords in unison.

Nie Kuangren and the 3,003 elite Jinyiwei joined forces and slashed at the black-clad man at the peak of the ninth level of the Immortal Ascension Realm!

This slash was earth-shattering!

An extremely terrifying blade aura appeared between heaven and earth, illuminating the entire capital city in an instant!

All of a sudden!

Throughout the capital, countless experts turned their gazes toward the Northern Garrison Command, secretly alarmed, wondering who dared to force their way into the Northern Garrison Command.

You must know that this is the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty!

What's even more frightening is that the Northern Garrison Command has acquired such powerful experts.

Or is this the power of the Embroidered Uniform Guard's killing blade formation?

Chu Xiu and Li Jingtian stood on the eaves of a rooftop of the Embroidered Uniform Guard headquarters, looking towards the direction of the Northern Garrison Command.

After all, the Embroidered Uniform Guard headquarters and the Northern Garrison Command were not far apart, and the two of them had already sensed it from the beginning.

With just Nie Kuangren and over three thousand elite Imperial Guards, they were more than capable of handling the situation, which is why they did not come to the Northern Garrison Office.
