Chapter 417

"Found something so soon?"

The night watchmen, including Jiang Lüzhong of Jinluo, were excited. They looked in the direction pointed by the man in white and landed on the roof.

They saw a bronze gong standing on the roof with a knife in his hand. He was also watching them.

"The enemy might be hiding nearby and could attack at any time, but this gong didn't even draw his knife. His professionalism is too low …" The few silver gongs frowned.

"Thud!"

With the sound of feet landing, Jiang Lüzhong of Jinluo waved his hand and was about to call the young gong to ask about the situation.

A few people in white jumped down from the back of the night watchman and eagerly ran to Xu Qi 'an. They cupped their hands in front of them and bowed.

"Prince Xu."

The night watchmen looked at the men in white of the Celestial Commissioner who were so respectful in front of the little gong and looked confused.

"So, they didn't find something, but came to greet this gong?"

Jiang Lüzhong of Jinluo squinted and examined Xu Qi 'an.

Xu Qi 'an stared at the men in white for a moment and confirmed that they were people he didn't know. After all, he was dealing with sixth-grade alchemists. He wasn't familiar with those above or below the sixth-grade.

He didn't know them, but they knew him.

The warlocks of the Celestial Commissioner all knew the existence of Xu Qi 'an, a super genius in the field of alchemy.

The blue book he wrote was classified as a first-class secret by Senior Brother Song Qing. Ordinary disciples couldn't read it even if they wanted to.

Although these men were eighth-grade Qi Gazers, they would become alchemists one day. Building a good relationship with this genius in the field of alchemy would be very helpful for their future promotion.

In their eyes, it was much more important than investigating a case.

"Prince Xu, you haven't come to the Celestial Commissioner for a long time. Senior Brother Song Qing has been talking about you."

"Talking about me? You want to collect a debt from me … "Xu Qi 'an smiled reservedly.

"Prince Xu, you must come to the Celestial Commissioner for tea another day. We also want to ask you about alchemy."

Ask him about alchemy?

Jiang Lüzhong of Jinluo raised his eyebrows.

The other night watchmen found it hard to believe that the proud warlocks of the Celestial Commissioner who looked down on Warrior were so respectful to a gong.

From what they said, this colleague was also proficient in alchemy?

Thinking of this, many of Copper Gong's eyes involuntarily turned to look at the waist token hanging on Xu Qi 'an's waist.

His name was engraved on it.

"Maybe another day." Xu Qi 'an waved his hand. "Solving the case is more important. Sorry to trouble you."

"You're too kind, it's only natural." The few white-robed figures turned around and were much more polite to the night watchmen. "There's no time to lose, let's continue."

The attitude of the Warlocks in white took a turn.

Jiang Lvzhong nodded slightly. "Leave a few men behind to investigate this street."

He left with the rest of the warlocks and the warlocks. After a few leaps, they were far away.

One of the gongs looked back and saw Xu Qi 'an's figure. He couldn't help but ask, "Do you know the colleague of our night watchman?"

One of the warlocks sighed. "We know him, but he might not know us."

The other white-robed figures also sighed.

When had the warlocks of the Celestial Commissioner been so humble? The gongs were curious and asked, "What do you mean?"

The night watchmen pricked up their ears. Jiang Lüzhong of Jinluo tilted his head slightly.

The warlocks said arrogantly, "You must have heard of Senior Brother Song Qing. Teacher Supervisor said that he is an alchemy genius that appears once in a century.

"However, do you know what Senior Brother Song has been saying recently?"

Another warlock added, "Xu Ningyan is really our teacher."

Are you kidding me?! The night watchmen did the same thing. They turned their heads and looked back at Xu Qi 'an's figure.

He stood proudly on the roof, his back straight.

Jiang Lüzhong of Jinluo didn't look back. He ordered, "Tomorrow, ask him who he is with. He must come here."

…

Xu Qi 'an and the new warlocks searched along the street. After a few steps, Zhu Guangxiao and Song Tingfeng returned.

"The Imperial Blade Guards have sealed off the surroundings. We have to search along the street." Song Tingfeng said in a low voice after greeting the warlocks.

At this moment, they walked to the side of the Green Book Inn. Xu Qi 'an's eyes flashed. He said, "Tingfeng, Guangxiao, and I will search from this inn. The rest of you go somewhere else and split up."

The warlocks had no objection. They thought it should be so.

After watching them leave, Xu Qi 'an stepped forward and knocked on the wooden door, waking up the waiter inside. With sleepy eyes, the waiter opened the door.

"Sir … sir …" The Waiter stuttered. He was a little scared.

"Check the room!" Xu Qi 'an shouted without thinking.

The Waiter was stunned. Song Tingfeng looked at Xu Qi 'an and said, "Search for a criminal."

Xu Qi 'an had done this many times in his previous life. Usually, he would only check the room when he received a report.

And the reason for the report was usually because the girl's acting was too exaggerated. She obviously didn't feel anything from the toothpick, but she still screamed like a mace.

Because of this, the guest next door couldn't sleep and reported her in anger.

The three searched the rooms one by one. When they reached the sixth room on the second floor, The Waiter said, "There's no one living here."

Song Tingfeng said in a low voice, "We have to check whether there's anyone living here or not."

The Waiter took out the key to open the door.

Xu Qi 'an entered the room and glanced around. He was relieved to see that the quilt on the bed was folded neatly and there was no one in the room.

He wasn't stupid … Although he was blinded by a leaf, The Waiter would still find it strange if he slept on the bed. He definitely couldn't hide it from the meticulous Song Tingfeng and the silent Zhu Guangxiao.

After leaving the hotel, Xu Qi 'an used the excuse of going to the toilet and refused to leave. Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao went door to door to check.

Squatting in the smelly toilet, Xu Qi 'an put the candlestick by his feet and took out a small jade mirror.

[Three: The night watchman entered the inn. He didn't notice me, right?]

A few seconds later, Number Six replied. [Six: I hid on the beam and didn't touch anything in the room.]

An old wanted criminal … Xu Qi 'an complained in his heart.

[Two: What's the situation now? Lu, are you safe? I didn't dare to ask when there was no news.]

Number Two was still awake?

Was he (she) really enthusiastic or just more enthusiastic?

[Six: I'm safe for now.]

[Two: How did you get saved?]

[Six: Number Three, can I say it?]

[Three: A gentleman is magnanimous, why not? However, Number Two, if you want to know, you need to exchange information of the same level. Hmm, I'm very interested in the history of the Myriad Demon Kingdom and the remnants of the Myriad Demon Kingdom.]

The case of the saltpeter mine was suspected to be a secret plot by the remnants of the Myriad Demon Kingdom. He had to help Brother Chun investigate this case.

[Two: I'm not too sure about the history of the Myriad Demon Kingdom.]

At this time, another new character appeared. [Five: I know the history of the Myriad Demon Kingdom. I know it too well.]

Sure, a group chat should be lively. Only then can information be shared … The corner of Xu Qi 'an's mouth curled up.

Currently, the ones who had appeared were: Number 1, Number 2, Number 4, Number 5, Number 6, as well as the old Taoist priest Number 9 and himself, Number 3.

Number Seven and Number Eight had yet to appear.

Seeing that no one spoke, Number Six typed: [Number Three gave me a piece of paper that recorded the Confucian Faction's aura concealment spell. That was why I was able to come out of the canal.]

[You successfully left the inner city?]

Number Two, Number Five, Number Four, and the peeping Number One all expressed their astonishment at the same time.

[Six: No, Number Three prepared a guest room for me and used a spell to conceal my aura. That was why I was able to hide in the inn without being noticed by the night watchman.]

[Three: Wait, aren't you afraid that Number One will report you if you tell him about the inn?]

[Six: Number One won't. If he wants to report me, he'll say it directly. Number Three, I owe you my life. I'll repay you in the future.]

Big Baldy is indirectly telling me about Number One's way of doing things … Xu Qi 'an guessed.

Number One ignored him. Like the other holders of the Book of the Earth, he went through the information given by Number Six in his mind.

Now, it could be confirmed that Number Three was indeed a disciple of the Confucian Faction. Moreover, he was a disciple that was highly valued by his teachers.

In this way, the range of possibilities would be greatly reduced. After all, there were many outstanding disciples in Yunlu Academy, but not many either.

Number One, who was in the capital, keenly sensed that something was amiss. The night watchman had already reacted and mobilized people to lock down the surroundings. How could Number Three help Number Six?

Unless he lived in the inner city and happened to be in the same area … Did an outstanding disciple of Yunlu Academy recently stay in the inner city?

I'll send someone to investigate later.

Our Heaven & Earth Society finally has a disciple of the Confucian Faction … The other holders of the Book of the Earth thought at the same time.

Although the Confucian Faction had declined, during its golden age, it suppressed all major cultivation systems and held an extraordinary position in the eyes of the world's cultivators.

[Three: It's nothing. Number Five, it's time to exchange information.]
