"Will you help you get promoted in the Privy Council? Why do you think I stay away from the guy in the black robe? That's right, that's what you look like now." Zhao Dahai glared, "I've also heard about the Gaoshan County. Didn't it teach you any lesson?"

"The facts do not match the rumors." Xia Fan's tone slowed down. "The matter in Gaoshan County has little to do with Princess Guangping. I exposed it. And the source of the evil has nothing to do with the county magistrate. The entire Jinxia City has nothing to do with it." Inseparable from it."

"What did you say...?" Zhao Dahai was stunned.

"The current Jinxia Privy Council is the enemy." He said word by word.

Chapter 98 Stalker

After listening to Xia Fan tell the real inside story of Gaoshan County, Zhao Dahai looked at him repeatedly as if he didn't know his disciple, "Did you not think about the consequences at that time?"

"Thought about it, the worst is just like you, hiding your name and wandering around." Xia Fan shrugged, "Of course my disciple is better than you, master, at least I'm not alone when I'm wandering."

"Someone promised to go with you? Tsk, can you believe this kind of promise?" The master sneered, "Now that you are done, I won't say much, but as a teacher, I won't go back to the Privy Council, you give up Bar!"

"I didn't intend to let you enter the Privy Council." Xia Fan was not discouraged. He knew that it would not be easy to persuade the other party. "As long as you don't take the examination, no one can force you in. I recruit Temporary workers, in other words, if you want to leave, you can leave anytime."

"Temporary...worker?" Zhao Dahai frowned, "Why does it sound perfunctory?"

"You don't want to be an alchemist, do you?"

"I'm not going, or what reason do I have to go? Although I'm surprised that you didn't join forces with Jinxia City, I guess they won't let it go if you overturned the Privy Council's plate. It's full of risks, but there is no benefit." , it’s still very troublesome, have you taken Master for a fool!”

"But you can help others and eliminate the evil from the source." Xia Fan said seriously.

"From the source?"

"That's right, Her Royal Highness will fully support me in making changes, and the new team I form will not only target evil spirits." He slowly said his plan, "And the first step is to let alchemists match A fine steel sword."

"You..." Zhao Dahai was speechless for a while.

He knew that his disciple was very unusual and had been very weird since he was a child, but now he found that he still underestimated his thoughts.

If there is evil, destroy it.

The magistrate created evil spirits, so the magistrate was eradicated.

But now that every force in Jinxia City is inseparable from the source of the evil spirits, what he wanted was to overthrow Jinxia City as a whole.

How about taking it one step further?

Sure enough... this guy is a person who will make him feel afraid.

"You just said that it is not a bad thing to help others occasionally, but what if you help others all the time?" Xia Fan asked back, "Helping Jinxia... and even Shenzhou has no evil spirits to get rid of, and helping Yunyou monks has no one to help, Master Do you think this is good or bad?"

What kind of shit question is this?

The master laughed angrily, "You are provoking me!"

"The disciple is just curious." Xia Fan remained unmoved.

"It's a good thing, but do you think you can do it?"

"If I say I can do it, Master will believe it?" He said without backing down. "As I said before, you can quit at any time when you feel that there is a problem or that it doesn't meet your expectations. I will never stop you. Of course, if you Take that sentence back and feel that helping others from suffering from evil spirits is not a good thing, then I will leave now and will never bother Master again."

The two stared at each other for a long time before Zhao Dahai shook his head again and again and said, "Sure enough, he is a traitor, he can't even say a good word!"

"If it is useful to say good things, I can say a hundred without repeating them."

"Okay, can I try it? Let me tell you first, I won't touch anything that is too dangerous."

"This is exactly what I want you to teach those newcomers—how to identify danger. As for how to deal with it, it's up to the professionals."

"You're making me sound unprofessional."

"From my disciple's point of view, it's true." Xia Fan laughed.

Zhao Dahai waved his hand, "Forget it, your wings are stiff, and you really don't need to rely on Master for protection. Jinxia City, right? I'll pack it up and go there in two days."

"Then the disciple is waiting for you at the Privy Council."

After walking out of the room, Li turned his head and said, "Does your master agree?"

"Well, at least I didn't refuse."

"Aren't you going with him? What if he slips away halfway?"

"If that's the case, there's no point in forcing him to stay." Xia Fan smiled, "But as far as I know, he shouldn't easily deceive his disciples."

Li looked up at the night sky, "I don't know how my master is doing now."

"As long as she is still alive, I will find out about her sooner or later." Xia Fan comforted.

"Hmm. Time to find that arrester?"

"That's right, he could be anywhere at this point, so we just go to the door and wait."

And this process is far easier and smoother than convincing his master.

Li Xing unexpectedly did not hang around the flower street and restaurants, but stayed at home with his wife and children.When he saw Xia Fan coming to the door and the fifth-grade alchemist robe on his body, he was shocked.

After he explained his purpose and salary, the other party agreed immediately.

"I thought you would discuss it with your family first."

"Discuss with my wife? She will only agree faster than me." Li Xing said disapprovingly, "The monthly salary of 20 taels of silver alone is enough for her to force me to agree. By the way, Mr. Xia... No, Master Xia, can I take a few of my subordinates with me? They are all very clever, and have followed me for many years..."

"Of course, as long as I can complete the task I gave, I don't mind paying a little more salary...remuneration."

"Thank you, my lord!" Li Xing cupped his hands happily, "I will go to the yamen tomorrow morning to do business, and I can leave in a few days at most."

……

After pulling Master and Catcher into his team, Xia Fan has completed the first step of the plan.

Although we haven't received any replies from other alchemists yet, the outline of the new headquarters framework has begun to emerge.

Afterwards, as long as the momentum of attacking with two hands is maintained, the evil spirit will be wiped out one day.

Considering the many things at hand, he didn't plan to stay in Fenghua County any longer, so he decided to drive back to Jinxia City tonight.

However, when walking to an unlit alley, Li suddenly held the edge of the bamboo hat and lifted it, "Someone is following us."

"Oh?" Xia Fan kept walking, "Are you sure?"

"Besides us, there are a few random footsteps, and it doesn't look like there will be so many people gathering around here."

Xia Fan clasped a copper wire pendant in his hand, "Find a quiet place."

For him, Fenghua County is relatively familiar. After bypassing two houses, there is a gravel hill outside.Basically, no one would come here at night, and it would be convenient for Li to make a judgment if he misheard.

But Li's expression proved that it was not wrong, she raised the bamboo hat a little more, so as to let more sounds into the ears.

"The number of people is increasing, at least... more than 50 people."

"Fifty people?" Xia Fan asked in surprise, "Followed all the way from Jinxia City?"

"Maybe it's the ones who hurried over to surround you after confirming your seat. At least you can be sure that these people don't have any good intentions."

"I see."

Xia Fan looked in the direction of the county seat and said in a deep voice.

Under the faint moonlight, shaking figures appeared one after another in the distance.The only thing that stood out to the visitor was the sword in his hand that reflected a little bit of cold light.

Chapter 99 电离

When the two sides approached, a man wearing a slit white robe with a bare chest walked out of the crowd, stared at Xia Fan coldly and said, "Qingzi, did you die in your hands?"

As soon as these words came out, it undoubtedly proved the identity of the other party.

"That's right. Are you from the Donghai Gang?" Xia Fan asked.

The other party's words were very jerky, far less smooth than Haruka May, and his public appearance didn't look like a ninja.However, he still noticed that the same flower decoration was tattooed on the neck of this person, and the outline was much larger, and one of the petals was extended to the cheek.

According to Qiguo's fashion, only the bottom of the society would get tattoos on their faces.

Like Qingzi, the opponent's tattoo has three petals in red.

"I am Ueno Kuji, here to claim your head!" He slowly pulled out the long knife at his waist, as if there was a flash of light on the tip of the knife. "You have two choices now, one is to kneel down and die, and the other is to fight with me!"

"Duel?" Xia Fan looked at the members of the Donghai Gang who were about to move around, "With these people?"

"Of course not! They won't do anything without my order!" The other party said angrily, "No one can interfere in a duel, only you and me! The winner lives, and the loser dies!"

"..." Xia Fan realized that this person's IQ might not be too high.

He didn't seem to have considered at all why he had to leave the residential area and come to this sparsely populated suburb in the middle of the night.And with a group of subordinates, but asked the general to come out to fight one-on-one - put it in the whole Qiguo, probably not many people will agree, right?

"What, mainland alchemist, are you afraid?" Ueno Jiuchi showed disdain, "I would like to see, how can a mere newcomer kill a makunin of Baishi level!"

This person is obviously not a member of the East China Sea Gang, but those who can climb to the top must have a skill - from this it can be inferred that the opponent's brain is not very bright, so he should belong to the kind that is particularly capable of fighting.

Xia Fan winked at Li, "Do my best."

The latter nodded and took off his hat—since he was going all out, hiding his form was not the top priority.

"So it's a monster..." Ueno Jiuji's expression suddenly became serious, "It makes sense, a new alchemist, how could he threaten Qingzi. But if you add a monster..."

"Why, are you afraid?" Xia Fan asked back in the words of the other party.

"Hmph, don't forget that there are only two of you! Maku Shinobu is not good at confrontation and battle, but I am different—" He raised the long knife to the level of his head, squatted his knees slightly, and posed a standard "Nothing can stop my sword light!"

I didn't say that I only brought one demon.

Having said that, after procrastinating for such a long time, the other side should have already made preparations, right?

At this moment, a howl of "Ahhhh-" came from a distance.

And the moment the sound landed, a huge black shadow rushed to the enemy's rear. Its speed was so fast that the ground was blown up by a gust of wind!

The encirclement of more than 50 people was instantly broken by this black shadow, and several unlucky ones were directly knocked out, fell sideways on the stone floor, and lost their breath immediately.

"It's a monster!" Someone screamed.

"Wolf, the wolf demon is here!"

Under the moonlight, the black shadow looked like a huge ferocious wolf, with a body length of more than one foot, and with its tail, even an elephant would pale in comparison.

"I am—Tengu!" As if he didn't want to be regarded as a wolf demon, Shan Hui let out a low growl.

But even a demon can't treat swords as nothing, even if the recovery power is extremely strong, the pain is still unavoidable.So when those swordsmen raised their weapons, Shan Hui chose to avoid them.

And his real trump card is Nagino who arrived riding on his back.

When the green-faced ghost charged into the crowd with two swords in hand, no one from the Donghai Gang could stop her sweeping and slashing.

The situation that seemed to be surrounded at first turned into a trap in an instant.

As early as the beginning of planning to go to Fenghua County, the princess mentioned that the Jinxia Privy Council would not let it go. For safety reasons, it is best to bring more guards when going out.And Xia Fan didn't like having a large group of strangers around him, and Fengyang Villa also needed guards, so he chose to let the two demons of May follow him in the distance.Now that the witch has lived in the side hall of the villa, the need for personal guards is naturally greatly reduced, and the monster is absolutely outstanding in terms of individual combat effectiveness.

At the same time, Xia Fan and Li also launched an attack on the enemy.

In an instant, Ueno Kuji seemed to see a boundless sea of ​​blood!

"Ha!" He yelled, and slashed straight at the alchemist first. The shining blade seemed to be wrapped in air, and suddenly disappeared!

Is this the technique of this person?Xia Fan secretly thought.

In close combat, if the opponent can't estimate the damage range of the weapon, it can really take advantage.

But he never considered close combat at all!

From a distance of six or seven meters, Xia Fan stretched out the hand holding the copper wire pendant, and cast the shock technique streamer——

This is also the trick he learned in the battle with Qingzi: Liuguang's strike range depends on the power of the spell, just like the greater the voltage, the longer the air distance it can penetrate, and any gold and iron objects in the enemy's hands are It will be the best guide for this technique.

The copper wire pendant instantly disappeared, replaced by an extremely bright blue light!

It exploded from Xia Fan's hand, forming an invisible strong electric field in front of him.

And Ueno Jiuji didn't know that the long knife he stabbed straight at had become the sharpest part in the field.

Almost within a few microseconds, a discharge channel is established.

When the channel was opened, the turbulent current had a place to pour, and they rushed to the weapon in Ueno's hand along this ionized channel, and burst out with dazzling light!

The air heated to thousands of degrees also let out a deafening roar!

Unlike when Qingzi was fighting, Xia Fan didn't need to worry about accidentally injuring himself this time, the shot was a double technique, and the copper wire pendant pushed the power of the technique to a new level.

The current was transmitted along the sword body all the way to the hilt, and then penetrated the wooden handle, directly penetrating into the opponent's body.

Among the bursting sparks, Ueno Jiuji was sent flying out without even being able to hum, and the arm holding the sword was even more scorched!

He may have extremely strong swordsmanship and can easily defeat opponents in close combat; he may be experienced in hundreds of battles, and he will not be moved even in the face of fox monsters; he may have many hidden killer moves that he has not used. However, after being infused with the shock technique, no matter how much skill he had, it would be in vain.

The only thing that surprised Xia Fan was that the opponent didn't die after taking a complete double attack, which shows that the ability to resist blows should not be underestimated.
