392: Liu Wuqing's sassy operation, killing with one blow

“How dare you!”

A cold voice echoed between heaven and earth.

With a bang.

Everyone fell to their knees in fright.

“Damn it, these dog-faced bastards take all the benefits on normal days, and then let them take the blame for the bad things!”

Some seventh-rank this officials trembled, cursing inwardly.

It’s over, we’re dead.

Just as they feared, it came.

“Lord Marquis Chu…”

Commander Zheng was about to explain when he was interrupted by a voice.

“Why is Liu Wuqing not here?!”

“My this official, by imperial decree, is inspecting the Three Prefectures. Wherever this official goes, it is as if Your Majesty is personally present. If the head of Liangan County does not show up, is he ignoring imperial authority and plotting rebellion?”

“Half an incense stick. If he doesn't appear, he will be dealt with for contempt of the Emperor, and executed without mercy!”

Fu Yunxuan held the Demon Suppression Blade and spoke coldly.

This Liu Wuqing actually dared to put on airs in front of this official, trying to give this official a 'show of force'. He truly didn't know his place.

Sending a group of small fries to greet this official, it's estimated that most of these people are those Liu Wuqing dislikes.

He probably wanted to use this official's hand to get rid of them.

“this official obeys!”

Commander Zheng broke out in a cold sweat, turned his head, and ordered, “Quickly go and inform Liu, Commander! No matter what he's doing, hurry to outside the city to greet Lord Marquis Chu!”

“Yes!”

The two General Flag Officers beside him immediately flew into the city.

Inside the inner city, Liu Mansion.

A group of fox demons and Succubi, dressed in various uniforms, prison clothes, beggar clothes, noble ladies' attire, and brothel attire, were frolicking in the main hall.

They were all trying to please the middle-aged man in the center, each entangled with him.

Everyone was having a great time.

Suddenly.

Bang!

The main door was quickly burst open, and a Centurion rushed into the lavish hall.

The demons looked annoyed, having almost been interrupted. Liu Wuqing's expression turned cold as he looked at the intruding Centurion.

“What is it? Is it Chu Jiang again, looking for trouble with this official?”

“Yes!”

The Centurion was stunned. Qianhu this official already knew.

“Chu Jiang said that if this official doesn't appear within half an incense stick, he will… execute this official on the grounds of ignoring imperial authority and showing contempt for the Emperor!”

The Centurion said, lowering his head.

“How dare he!”

Liu Wuqing was furious. This Chu Jiang was too arrogant, truly treating a chicken feather as an imperial decree, even wanting to execute him.

“this official, I advise you to go and see. This lord might not be easy to provoke. After all, Chu Jiang is nominally representing Your Majesty to inspect the Three Prefectures. Now that he's angry, if you don't go, it might cause trouble!”

“Anyway, it'll just be a verbal reprimand; he wouldn't dare do anything to you!”

The Centurion advised.

The next second.

His eyes widened.

He saw.

Liu Wuqing made a fox demon transform into its true form and fiercely clawed at him.

Crackle!

Blood gushed out immediately.

Liu Wuqing then took some blood from a few female demons and poured it on himself. His Face and clothes had traces of blood.

He looked as if he had just fought a bloody battle with demons.

“Hmph!”

“this official wants to see if this Chu Jiang has the guts to kill this official!”

Liu Wuqing snorted coldly, flicked his sleeve, and left. Without waiting for the Centurion to react, he instantly transformed into a streak of light and flew out of the city gate.

Centurion: “…” (ー_ー)!!

Should he say that Liu, Commander was truly fearless, or was he just playing it safe?

He smeared demon blood on himself and then rushed off at high speed.

What was he trying to achieve?

Sigh.

He couldn't understand the minds of these important figures.

Shaking his head.

He disappeared from his spot.

…

Outside the county city.

A streak of light flashed by, and Liu Wuqing, covered in blood and in a frantic hurry, landed.

“this official Liu Wuqing greets Chu Marquis. Even if this official had a hundred guts, this official would not dare to do anything that ignores the Emperor or His Majesty. Just now, a few troublesome demons appeared a dozen miles north of the city. this official dared not let them harm the common people, so this official was a little late. It was truly not intentional, and this official asks Lord Marquis Chu to punish this official!”

Liu Wuqing was filled with grief and indignation, deeply remorseful, and proactively pleaded guilty to Chu Jiang, speaking with a slight gasp.

Bleeding while asking for punishment.

The scene was explosive.

“Holy cow!”

“This Liu Wuqing is truly ruthless! This move is truly like a heifer riding a plane—it's off the charts!”

They had originally thought that Liu Wuqing would just make up some random excuse to fool Chu Jiang.

They didn't expect him to go all out.

They naturally didn't believe that Liu Wuqing would actually go to slay demons, and that demons would just happen to appear when the Inspector arrived.

They guessed it was all an act.

But this had several advantages.

First, Liu Wuqing was not intentionally late; he was slaying demons. Chu Jiang was abusing his public power to cause trouble.

Second, Liu Wuqing was injured during the process of slaying demons, yet he still desperately rushed back to greet Chu Jiang, showing his unwavering loyalty to the imperial court. If Chu Jiang were to truly punish him, that would be unreasonable.

Third, it garnered public support. Although the higher-ups wouldn't believe it, the ignorant common people would easily be swayed by rumors, and it could also create a bad impression of the new Inspector, making them think he was a bad this official.

As the saying goes, killing three birds with one stone.

In this way, Liu Wuqing's lateness and failure to greet Chu Jiang.

Directly transformed from a crime into a meritorious deed.

Good heavens.

He really knew how to play the game.

No wonder he was so fearless; he probably planned this long ago.

Everyone looked at Chu Jiang, guessing how he would resolve this matter.

“Kneel!”

Chu Jiang's icy voice echoed between heaven and earth.

What?

Everyone heard Chu Jiang's voice and thought they had misheard.

In this situation, it was best to downplay major issues and resolve minor ones. Yet, this Chu Jiang actually ordered him to kneel.

What kind of bewildering behavior was this?

And the little white creature on Chu Jiang's shoulder extended its snow-white little hand and angrily scolded, “Damn it, Liu boy, are you deaf? My Master told you to kneel, didn't you hear?!”

“What is your status, and what is my Master's status? Your false claim of absence is ignoring imperial authority, disrespecting the current Your Majesty, and harboring disloyal intentions. By law, you should be executed!”

“The blood on your Face was just smeared on, wasn't it? How dare you claim to have gone to kill demons? Perhaps you were killing demons in your bed!”

“And also…”

Xiao Bai, at this moment, transformed into an Ancestor An, every word piercing the lungs.

Everyone who witnessed this scene was stunned.

Although any clear-sighted person could see he was acting, no one dared to say it directly. Exposing him like this would undoubtedly be a complete break.

Meanwhile.

Liu Wuqing's eyes were already spitting fire, his Face filled with rage.

Who was he? The younger brother of the Yue Province Pacification Envoy, and somewhat related to Wu Ling King. In Liangan County, and in the entire Yue Province, no one had ever dared to treat him like this.

Now, he was actually ordered to kneel by Chu Jiang.

And he was thoroughly scolded by his beast pet, which exposed all his petty thoughts.

To be insulted by a beast.

He had already given Chu Jiang enough Face by personally greeting him.

But making him kneel was something he could not do, no matter what. Moreover, he was burning with anger from being cursed by that little white beast.

If he didn't kneel, he would definitely be caught by Chu Jiang and used as an excuse to make a big deal out of it.

If he knelt, he would lose all Face, and even the Yue Province Pacification Envoy behind him, and even the Wu Spirit Royal Mansion, would be humiliated along with him.

For a moment.

Liu Wuqing was in a dilemma, his brain frantically working, trying to find a solution, but to no avail.

This damned Chu Jiang was too overbearing, simply lawless.

If he didn't kneel, he might really be captured by this Chu Jiang on the charge of deceiving the Emperor.

Just as Liu Wuqing hesitated for a few seconds.

Chu Jiang's eyes turned cold, and the Myriad Manifestations Divine Attraction's gravity was applied to him.

Bang!

The bluestone shattered.

Liu Wuqing was forcibly brought to his knees by an overwhelming pressure.

“You… Chu Jiang, you dare to forcibly make me kneel, I'll…!”

Liu Wuqing was enraged, his heart filled with murderous intent, but he was also shocked by the other party's strength, making someone kneel without a sound.

Whoosh!

His Demon Slayer Blade at his waist instantly unsheathed, its light illuminating the world, a streak of extreme red light suddenly appearing.

Pfft!

A ferocious-faced head flew off, blood splattering and staining a large area of the this official road.

Everyone watched Liu Wuqing's head roll dozens of meters, filled with horror.

Chu Jiang's expression was indifferent, the Demon Slayer Blade returned to its sheath, as if he had just crushed an ant.

“Liu Wuqing, ignoring imperial authority, disrespecting Your Majesty, colluding with demons, and deceiving the Emperor, is guilty of ten unforgivable crimes. He has now been executed by this official!”

Died at the age of four chapters.
