Chapter 170: The Killing Field

Everything in Jiangnan is good, with beautiful mountains and clear waters, outstanding people, and rich products, but the humidity is a bit heavy.

People who are new here may sometimes not be used to it.

Early the next morning, Fan Xian woke up to the noise outside.

The first time I woke up, I found that Lan Yi was not around, and no one was bringing me face wash. It was really a bit unaccustomed to me.

Get dressed and open the door of the inn.

A maid from an inn was waiting outside the door with hot water.

She is pretty and looks a bit like Xiaojiabiyu.

There was some frost and dew in the hair. It seemed that I had been standing there for a while, but the water in the basin was still hot.

It must have been changed after it cooled down.

Fan Xian could understand it at a glance.

There was a person standing outside the door. The distance was still within ten meters, but he was unable to notice it. There was only one explanation for this: this person had no murderous intent.

There is murderous intention in the heart, no matter how well it is hidden, the aura will fluctuate, and you can notice it yourself and open your eyes immediately.

A habit developed over many years.

Twenty meters is your own sensing area.

Five meters is my current must-kill area, but it is still being perfected. There are many things that I still need to understand.

On that day, Shadow's assassination was a sure-kill move.

It's fast, invisible, and silent.

Fast, accurate and ruthless, the essence of which has been mastered to a very high level.

If you can go one step further, you will be a great master.

But the reason why I was able to win with one move was because of this five-meter sure-kill field.

Although it is only a prototype now, it is still more than enough to deal with him at level nine.

After all? This five-meter sure-kill field is a killing move specially prepared by me for those great masters.

That fight? Fan Xian is sure? Shadow's strength is above the Langya Ranking and can definitely rise further.

Xinlan is also a ninth-level assassin? The skills she practices are not weaker than those of Shadow, but she is only entering the ninth level for the first time? And Yingying is a veteran ninth-level strongman? She has already reached the ninth level, and is only a hair away from the grand master.

Xinlan is far from his opponent.

Even if you add Chi Lian, it won’t work!

In Langya Pavilion, the only ones who can defeat the shadow are myself and Uncle Wu Zhu? Besides Lan Yi? Among the ninth-level realm, the only ones who can do it are those two lunatics.

Thinking of those two lunatics, one of them seems to have been active in Jiangnan recently? In this way, Fan Xian felt that his depression had dissipated a lot.

What is his plan in Jiangnan this time? Although it is a key part of the "Remaining Years Plan", the little lunatic is not included in this plan.

Can we meet again? It depends on the opportunity.

"My slave, please pay your respects to your lord!"

The maid bowed slightly.

"Bring it in."

The maid put down the hot water and prepared to wash Fan Xian? But Fan Xian refused? The maid was so frightened that she immediately knelt down, her body trembling continuously.

"I know I'm wrong. I know I'm wrong. My lord, please forgive me. My lord, please forgive me..."

Fan Xian didn't say anything, he just lowered his head and looked at her quietly for a long time, then sighed slightly.

This world is a new world that was re-derived after the Ice and Snow Age, but in Jiangnan, the scenes from Li Er's period were still staged after all.

These wealthy families are really so rampant and outrageous.

At this moment, Fan Xian's appreciation for Emperor Qing had gone up a few levels, and he finally waved his butcher's knife at the powerful families in Jiangnan like the wise and mighty His Majesty Li Er.

Nowadays, the scientific examination system has been implemented in Qingguo, and ordinary people can also study, go to school, and become officials in the court.

These are all the results of the struggle between my mother and Emperor Qing.

But this place in Jiangnan may be because the sky is high and the emperor is far away, or it may be because Emperor Qing has some scruples. He knows that this place is incompatible with the laws of Qing State, but he has delayed taking action until today.

Fan Xian couldn't remember the name of that Wei in Kyoto, but he seemed to remember that he once pierced his heart with a sword made from a candied haws and bamboo skewer. That person was a talented man born out of a commoner.

But in the south of the Yangtze River, learning is still controlled by the major aristocratic families, and the people are illiterate.

Even the officials in Jiangnan were divided and controlled by him.

To them, the six official orders and documents of the imperial court were nothing more than a piece of waste paper.

Jiangnan is the richest place in the Qing Kingdom after Kyoto, but the taxes collected every year are the lowest in the country.

Emperor Qing was the only emperor of all time, both in terms of talent and strategy, he was extremely high, and he lacked the indecisiveness of many emperors and was more ruthless, so naturally he would not tolerate Jiangnan for too long.

Since Emperor Qing ascended the throne, Jiangnan has still been able to run rampant all these years, and after seeing Emperor Qing's lack of reaction, it became even more unscrupulous.

It's not because the old man like Emperor Qing is kind, but because he doesn't have the extra energy to deal with these clowns.

No, wouldn't he take action now?

The maid was kneeling on the ground, just kowtowing continuously. After not seeing Fan Xian scold him for a long time, she finally felt more at ease. She wanted to look up, but the fear in her soul prevented her from doing so.

After Fan Xian left the room, she dared to slowly get up, her chest rising and falling, obviously she was very frightened.

The maid secretly glanced at Fan Xian's leaving figure and then at the basin for washing. She was filled with surprise and uncertainty.

In all her years at the inn, she has never seen an official who knows how to wash his face.

Early in the morning, those big shots liked to touch and touch her.

This young adult seems to be a little different today!

Did it come from outside?

Although the news last night spread quickly in Jiangnan, it did not include maids at the lowest level like her.

Naturally, he didn't recognize Fan Xian.

She only knew that her duty was to serve every important person who stayed at the inn.

Kyoto.

Stargazing platform.

Emperor Qing got up early today, earlier than usual.

I took the highest-level expedited report from Jiangnan and read it twice.

The old eunuch who had served Emperor Qing for many years knew very well that His Majesty never read it a second time, whether it was news or files.

There is only one exception.

That year, Ye Qingmei was assassinated in Kyoto and his Majesty read the highest-level expedited report three times.

Today, he watched it twice.

Apart from these two times, there is no third exception.

The cold wind gathered around the solitary peak, and then blew through here, bringing with it a trace of rain and dew. As winter approaches, the chill is even deeper.

The old eunuch was sweating on his forehead at this moment.

I also admire Fan Xian in my heart. This boy has repeatedly broken His Majesty's record-keeping habits, and it is strange that he is still alive and kicking now.

I couldn't calm down, which made me, an old man, look at His Majesty's changing expression day by day, and I became frightened.

Your Majesty has always been as steady as a mountain, and if his expression changes, it must be no small matter.

For example, the old eunuch had also seen the highest-level secret message from Jiangnan this morning. This young Master Fan actually executed 80% of the officials in Jiangnan overnight last night.

Eighty percent!

Glancing at His Majesty who had been standing on the stargazing platform for an hour, the old eunuch chose to lower his head lower.

It feels safe this way.
