Just as Xia Pingan was enjoying the show of dogs biting pigs in the yard, a black carriage stopped at the gate of the Donggang Supervision Office. Li Chaoming, who was dressed in casual clothes, got off the carriage. The moment he entered the gate of the Supervision Office, he raised his head and saw Xia Pingan standing by the office window with a teacup in his hand, looking down at the yard below.
Li Chaoming hurriedly revealed a smile as he lifted his hat. After revealing his identity to Luo Laoji, he directly walked towards the building of the Supervision Office.
A chained little black pig was chased by a dog as it ran towards Li Chaoming. It almost stepped on Li Chaoming's leather shoes and dirtied them. Li Chaoming frowned as he muttered, "Where did this pig come from …" Then, he kicked the little black pig to one side. After that, he walked up the stairs of the building of the Inspection Department with his head held high and his chest puffed out.
Soon, Li Chaoming met Xia Pingan in his office. "Xia Pingan, nice to meet you.
"Hahaha, Director Li is a rare guest. Come, sit down, sit down …" Xia Pingan smiled and invited Li Chaoming to sit down. "Director Li, would you like some tea?"
"You're too polite, Mr. Xia. I'll leave right away. No need to pour tea!" Li Chaoming smiled as he sat down on the chair with half of his buttocks. After that, he sneakily glanced back at the door of the office to see if it was closed, as if he was afraid of being overheard.
"What's the matter, Director Li?" Xia Pingan asked.
"Mr. Xia... I've done what you asked me to do last time!" Li Chaoming said straightforwardly.
"Oh, what about Yao Youchang?" Xia Pingan raised his eyebrows.
Li Chaoming nodded as he revealed a complacent look. He lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Xia, Yao Youchang was caught red-handed in bed last night. He was disabled. Finally, he was knocked out naked and put into a sack before being thrown at the gate of the Ping Mountain Camp of the Adjudication Army. They want an explanation. I've just heard that the Adjudication Army has removed Yao Youchang from his position as the inspector of Jinyang and locked him up. Even if Yao Youchang can come out this time, he's finished!"
Upon hearing this news, Xia Pingan was in a good mood.
Apart from the Huang family, the rest of the families had already settled their grudges and grievances. Furthermore, he now had a Seven Sun Realm gold-medal fighter by his side. With this, his future in Shang Jing City would be established. Now that he had a firm foothold, Xia Pingan did not believe that anyone would dare to find trouble with him.
"Alright, Director Li, thank you for your hard work. Director Li's brother-in-law has performed well in prison during this period of time, so his sentence will be reduced by two months. He will be released next month. I will send someone to inform the port. In the future, Jinming Trading Company's goods will be exempted from inspection and will be given priority. If you have a lot of goods here, you can also supply some to the restaurants and taverns in the East Harbor District.
. "Li Chaoming was overjoyed, and his eyebrows were about to jump. His brother-in-law being in prison for two or three months was a small matter, but now that Xia Pingan had spoken, his Jinming Company's treatment in the East Port District would be improved. With a word from Xia Pingan, Jinming Company's financial resources would double. How could he not be surprised?
"Thank you, Mr. Xia. Thank you, Mr. Xia..."
"That's what I should do. I'm a person who distinguishes between kindness and hatred. If there's a grudge, I'll take revenge. However, I'll never let the people who work for me suffer losses. Director Li, you'll know this in the future."
Xia Pingan did not fool Li Chaoming. After speaking to Li Chaoming, he directly pulled the bell twice. Wei Meiyu pushed the door open and asked Xia Pingan what he needed. Xia Pingan directly asked Wei Meiyu to find Situ Hua. Then, in front of Li Chaoming, he told Situ Hua about the Jinming Company's treatment and asked Situ Hua to make a trip to the port and the East Port District to settle the matter.
…
Li Chaoming left Xia Pingan's office with a face full of happiness. When he walked downstairs, he saw the little black pig being tied up and running around. Its cries were too unpleasant to listen to. Li Chaoming kicked the little black pig again, causing it to roll away with a miserable cry. Only then did he tidy up his clothes and leave the Inspection Department.
Compared to that bastard Yao Youchang, Li Chaoming felt that it was more reassuring to deal with Xia Pingan.
…
Not long after Li Chaoming left, an emerald bird flew like lightning to the information room of the Inspection Department of the East Port District. Soon, Xia Pingan's desk was filled with the news of the Judgment Army killing Poison Demon at the White Dragon Cave Water Plant last night.
Although Boy of Fortune was no longer watching Poison Demon, it was expected that Poison Demon would be finished. Now, only three of the five demons were left. Only two were still hiding.
Dark Demon was more cautious. After the incident last night, he went into hiding. Now, he was hiding in a small hotel on the outskirts of Shang Jing City. He was like a frightened bird, not even daring to return home. He was observing the situation.
Although it had only been one night, the changes in the situation in Shang Jing City made Xia Pingan feel that he had already passed the most difficult stage and could temporarily heave a sigh of relief.
While Xia Pingan was relieved, the reputation of the Black Dragon had spread throughout Shang Jing City.
When the Inspection Department of each district encountered a difficult case, they would come to the Inspection Department of the East Port District to ask Xia Pingan to borrow the Black Dragon to solve the case.
As soon as the Black Dragon arrived, ordinary QJ cases, theft cases, and murder cases were solved almost immediately. The murderer could be quickly found. On the second day after Li Chaoming came to find Xia Pingan, the Black Dragon was lent out five times, creating a record of solving five cases in a row in Shang Jing City.
For a while, the name of the Divine Dog Black Dragon had spread throughout Shang Jing City. Even the reputation of Xia Pingan had spread throughout Shang Jing City.
…
Three days later, in the afternoon, in the square outside the Imperial Palace in Shang Jing City.
Today, Shang Jing City was sunny and sunny. Since noon, a lot of important people in the Imperial City, including the crown prince Beitang Wangchuan, Lin Yi, many important members of the Dark War God Cult in Shang Jing City, bishops, and some members of the royal family, had gathered in the square outside the Imperial Palace, waiting quietly.
The square was covered with a red carpet.
Beitang Wangchuan stood in the most conspicuous position in the crowd, with Lin Yi standing beside him.
"Is there still no news about the other three of the five demons?" Beitang Wangchuan looked at the blue sky, and only turned his face slightly, talking with Lin Yi in a low voice.
The two were talking using a secret method, so others could not hear them at all.
"We are still investigating. The Dark Demon and the Corpse Demon can probably be determined to be in Shang Jing City, and the Dream Demon is the most mysterious. There is no information at all?"
"Can't you find the Dream Demon with divination?"
"Can't find it!"
"They all have anti-divination magic tools on them, so the Dark Demon and the Corpse Demon can only determine the approximate range through divination, but the Dream Demon can't be divined at all …"
"No news from the Shadow Guard?"
Lin Yi knew that Beitang Wangchuan was actually asking about the news from Xia Pingan when he asked about the Shadow Guard.
"There is still no news from the Shadow Guard!"
Beitang Wangchuan softly said, "I heard that two days ago, Xia Pingan encountered an assassination attempt on Tian Yuan Bridge. Has he been well these two days?"
"These two days, Xia Pingan has been well. Other than being low-key when he goes out, there is nothing unusual. The Judgement Army has already arranged for people to investigate this case. Your Highness does not need to worry about Xia Pingan, but Xia Pingan's enemy has not been well these two days!"
"Oh, what's the matter?" Beitang Wangchuan also showed an interested expression.
"Jin Yang's inspector, Yao You Chang, was in an adulterous relationship with the family of an Imperial City Guard official. Recently, he was caught. Yao You Chang was seriously injured and sent to the Ping Shan military camp. I have already arranged for an interrogation, and he will be dealt with according to the law …"
"Xia Pingan did it?" Beitang Wangchuan asked in surprise.
"There is no evidence that he did it. The person who did it is from the Jin Yang District's police system. He had some conflicts with Yao You Chang before, but there is no trace of it being arranged by someone …"
Regarding Yao You Chang's matter, although Lin Yi was the commander of the Judgement Army, he did not avoid it at all, nor did he shield his shortcomings. That kind of black sheep was simply a disgrace to the Judgement Army. It would be better to get rid of him as soon as possible. And the reason why he brought this matter up in front of Beitang Wang Chuan was actually to remind Beitang Wang Chuan that Xia Pingan was not as simple and easy to control as he thought. Xia Pingan's influence in Shang Jing City was expanding too quickly. This kind of person was not easy to control.
In the past few days, those who had offended Xia Pingan, from the garrison troops to Yao Youchang, had all met with misfortune. This was not a coincidence. Although Lin Yi had taken a liking to Xia Pingan's ability, he also felt a trace of fear.
Xia Pingan dealt with Yao You Chang without informing him. Although there was no evidence that Xia Pingan was involved in this matter, the timing of Yao You Chang's incident was too coincidental. This matter did not blow up earlier or later. Not long after Yao You Chang offended Xia Pingan, Yao You Chang was caught in an adulterous relationship. To say that this matter was completely coincidental would be an insult to Lin Yi's IQ.
Beitang Wangchuan also understood the meaning behind Lin Yi's words. He smiled slightly, "If he is really the kind of person who does not fight back when you hit or scold him, then it is meaningless. This is actually quite good!"
"There is one more thing!"
"What is it?"
"Does Your Highness feel that Xia Pingan's strength is increasing too quickly?"
"If you have the money, it is very easy to obtain cultivation resources in Shang Jing City. Even the Five Sun Stage and Six Sun Stage are not a problem!" Beitang Wangchuan said indifferently.
Hearing Beitang Wangchuan's words, Lin Yi did not say anything else. In fact, Lin Yi had recently investigated the flow of most of the divine sense crystals collected by the Judgment Army in Shang Jing City. He discovered that the divine sense crystals that actually flowed into Xia Pingan's hands through public channels were very rare. There was almost none.
On the one hand, there was no divine sense crystal to cooperate with him. On the other hand, his strength was increasing rapidly. Under such circumstances, Lin Yi could only think that Xia Pingan had other unknown sources of divine sense crystals. Moreover, this source had to be very reliable, powerful, and secretive enough to push a Summoner from the One Sun Stage to the Four Sun Stage in such a short time.
In the entire Goldmoon Continent, there were only a handful of organizations and institutions with such strength.
Could it be that there was really a mysterious person or a mysterious organization providing information to Xia Pingan?
Lin Yi began to doubt it. Previously, he thought that Xia Pingan had accidentally integrated with the realm pearl of the illusionary child, so he could obtain some information. Now, it seemed that the things that Xia Pingan showed were somewhat beyond their expectations.
There were many things involved behind this. Without evidence, Lin Yi would not rashly mention it in front of Beitang Wangchuan. He just pointed it out so that Beitang Wangchuan would be mentally prepared.
However, after probing just now, Lin Yi found that His Highness the Crown Prince seemed to have his own plans and was deliberately diluting some things. This made Lin Yi have to suppress some thoughts in his heart.
Perhaps, for His Highness, there was only one person in Shang Jing City who was a threat to him! In addition, as long as it was something useful to His Highness, he would take it first. At least, he had to ensure that it would not fall into the hands of another person. Therefore, he did not mind whether it would be troublesome or not.
Looking at Beitang Wangchuan's handsome side profile, Lin Yi suddenly understood something.
"His Majesty's airship has arrived..." Beitang Wangchuan, who was looking at the sky, suddenly said with a smile.
A golden airship had appeared in the sky to the west of Shang Jing City, and it was particularly conspicuous...
As the figure of the golden airship expanded little by little, the people waiting in the square outside the imperial palace suddenly cheered up and prepared to welcome the arrival of His Majesty the Emperor. Many people who were whispering before suddenly stopped talking and raised their heads, looking forward to the arrival of His Majesty the Emperor.
In just seven or eight minutes, a huge golden airship slowly landed on the square outside the imperial palace.
After the airship landed, the cabin door of the airship opened. A familiar and awe-inspiring figure appeared at the cabin door of the airship, sweeping the square with majestic eyes, just like a lion king returning to his territory.
His Majesty the Emperor of the Shang Dynasty had finally returned...
