After being invincible in martial arts, I travel through the strange world

Chapter 26

"Isn't this coming?"

Lu Xingzhou didn't look back, and continued to soak in the medicinal bath, enjoying the massage from the pair of catkins.

Standing behind him was a beautiful woman in palace attire with a gentle and attractive appearance, her figure was uneven, like a ripe peach.

But there was an air of nobility about her, a feeling that she could only be seen from afar and not be played with.

Ordinary men might not be able to hold their heads up in front of her, let alone have other thoughts.

Ji Nianyao, the youngest sister of Emperor Xuanyue, is now the eldest princess.

She was Lu Xingzhou's little fan girl when she was very young, and she still is to this day.

……

"The Emperor Xuanyue's Mausoleum was destroyed and the body disappeared. Have you found any clues?"

Lu Xingzhou asked Ji Nianyao in a deep voice.

The Jiaofang Division is Ji Nianyao's property, and one of the purposes of Lu Xingzhou's coming here is to meet her.

He knew that as long as he appeared, Ji Nianyao would come.

"I knew you would ask this. Only my sister can make you return to the imperial city."

Ji Nianyao's tone was somewhat resentful, but it didn't delay the business.

She calmed down, and while helping Lu Xingzhou rub his shoulders, she recalled what happened that day.

"It was a sunny day, and after lunch I enjoyed the flowers in the imperial garden."

"Suddenly the sky is dark and the earth is dark, and you can't see your fingers, just like a dog eating the sun!"

"When I realized something was wrong, I hurried out and saw a purple light flashing in the direction of the imperial mausoleum, and then a purple thunder fell down!"

"After that, the weather gradually returned to normal."

"But news soon came from the palace, saying that my sister's tomb was destroyed and her body disappeared!"

"I also went to the scene to check later, but I didn't find anything unusual."

"More things, I don't know."

After listening, Lu Xingzhou looked strange.

Tengu eclipses the sun, purple thunder falls, corpses disappear...

Why does it sound so unreal?
What's going on here?
……

"By the way, a very scary and strange thing happened recently. I don't know if it has anything to do with the disappearance of my sister's body."

Ji Nianyao remembered another matter, and told Lu Xingzhou with a terrified expression.

"In the past two days, many collateral families of the royal family died inexplicably and tragically at home, and someone saw the figure of the cat demon at the scene of the crime."

"They all say that the cat demon is killing people!"

Lu Xingzhou frowned and asked:

"What? The cat demon kills people?"

Ji Nianyao nodded in fear.

"Yes, quite a few people have seen it! This matter has spread, and many collateral branches of the royal family have been frightened and moved."

Lu Xingzhou continued to ask:
"Who exactly died? Tell me."

"it is good."

……

Lu Xingzhou inquired carefully, and found that there were a total of 17 members of the royal family who died recently, all of whom were powerless.

The Ji family ruled Dayan for nearly 500 years.

After so many years of reproduction, the number of collaterals is astonishing.

Most of these collateral descendants no longer have any power, and live in the imperial city like ordinary people.

Not to mention the fact that cat demons are not cat demons, it is obvious that someone is deliberately hunting and killing collateral members of the royal family!

What is the murderer behind the plot?
And these homicides all happened after the corpses were thrown in the mausoleum.

Lu Xingzhou had a vague premonition that the two cases were very likely to be related in some way!

“Tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk~”

Lu Xingzhou tapped the barrel with his fingers, closing his eyes and thinking about the details.

At this time, a soft body approached from behind and hugged Lu Xingzhou.

It's Ji Nianyao.

She leaned in front of Lu Xingzhou and said pitifully:

"The current imperial city is so dangerous, and I don't have the power to protect me. Maybe someday I will die for no apparent reason."

"I'm so pitiful, my sister will be sad to see me like this, right?"

Lu Xingzhou looked back at her, and said speechlessly:
"If you have anything to say, just say it."

Hearing this, Ji Nianyao smiled and whispered in his ear:
"Brother Lu, I want to live with you for a while, please!"

If someone else saw this scene, their jaws would definitely drop in shock.

Who would have thought that the majestic eldest princess would have such a side?

In front of Lu Xingzhou, she has always been a little girl who can't grow up.

……

"Thinking of going to my place? All right, pack up and come over tomorrow."

After a little thought, Lu Xingzhou agreed.

Although Ji Nianyao has a high status, she has no power in her hands, and it is difficult to protect herself in danger.

After Emperor Xuanyue died, Lu Xingzhou didn't have many close people in this world.

Ji Nianyao is one of them.

"I knew you still cared about me!"

Ji Nianyao was overjoyed when she heard the words, and leaned over to kiss Lu Xingzhou, but he stopped him with his hand.

"Don't make trouble, I have something else to do, so I'm leaving first."

With that said, Lu Xingzhou stood up, shook off the moisture from his body secretly, put on his robe, turned around and left.

The whole process took only seven or eight seconds.

Looking at the swaying door, Ji Nianyao couldn't help being stunned.

It took a few seconds to react, and he slapped the water angrily.

"Sooner or later, I'll do it for you!"

※※※※※※※

After leaving Jiaofangsi, Lu Xingzhou went straight to the northern suburbs of Luodu.

Even in the richest imperial city of Dayan, there are still many poor people.

Most of these people gather in the northern suburbs, living a difficult life and barely making a living.

As Lu Xingzhou moved forward, the surrounding scene became increasingly dilapidated and desolate, and it was a completely different world from the bustling inner city.

There are also some homeless beggars on both sides of the road, lying on the ground, not knowing whether they are dead or alive.

Lu Xingzhou came to a Jiangnan-style courtyard after turning around in the dilapidated and dirty alleys.

It's hard to imagine that there is such a luxurious courtyard hidden in such a poor northern suburb!
"Private forbidden area, come and stop!"

As soon as Lu Xingzhou appeared, two guards with knives stood in front of him fiercely.

"roll!"

Lu Xingzhou slapped him away with a slap, and the strong wind howled with killing intent.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the head of the guard in front exploded, blood splattering everywhere.

The headless corpse shook and fell powerlessly to the ground.

The other guard shuddered violently, how could there be any ferocity on his face?
Frightened, he wanted to turn around and run away, but just as he lifted his leg, Lu Xingzhou grabbed him and picked him up by the back of his neck.

"Take me to find your leader, if you dare to play tricks, I will crush your head."

The guard was so pinched that he couldn't breathe, let alone make a sound, so he could only nod his head to express his meaning.

"Lead the way."

Lu Xingzhou threw him on the ground and said coldly.

The guard coughed a few times and quickly got up from the ground, not daring to delay.

He led the way tremblingly and led Lu Xingzhou into the courtyard.

……

"Who? Ah!"

"Come, come, come, there are enemies!"

"Help me, save me quickly!"

Along the way, many guards rushed out of the courtyard, but most of them were shot to death by Lu Xingzhou.

For a while, corpses were scattered all over the field, screaming again and again,

The reason why Lu Xingzhou attacked so ruthlessly was because this was one of the gangster forces he hated the most - the Beggar Gang.

This is a gang that harbors filth and evil deeds.

The most disgusting thing is that unless everyone in Dayan lives and works in peace and contentment, the beggar gang will never be completely eliminated.

Lu Xingzhou once killed three beggar gang leaders in a row in a fit of rage, and at the same time cleaned up the entire upper floor, a big change of blood.

After that time, the gang restrained a lot and dared not do anything too extreme.

One of the strongholds of the beggar gang is hidden in the slums in the northern suburbs of the imperial city.

The current gang leader Xiao Yunshan lives here all year round, leading a luxurious life, which has nothing to do with the word "beggar".

But back then he was indeed a bullied little beggar.

But now, he has become an evil ghost lying on countless beggars and sucking blood.

There is probably nothing more ironic in the world than this.

……

"Who dares to forcibly break into my gang of beggars?!"

As Lu Xingzhou went deeper, the big figures of the beggar gang in the courtyard were finally alarmed.

A big man with a lion's nose and a wide mouth came out with the steps of a dragon and a tiger, followed by a group of martial arts masters, all martial arts masters in the quenching state!

After seeing the leader and elders, the minions around were overjoyed and shouted one after another.

"Help me, Lord! This thief is cruel and killed many of our brothers. Please take revenge for us!"

"Please help the Lord to avenge us!"

"Kill this villain and show off the fierce power of our gang of beggars!"

"Kill him, kill him!"

The minions were crying and howling, as if seeing the light of hope.

They didn't notice that after seeing Lu Xingzhou's appearance clearly, Xiao Yunshan's complexion changed drastically, his feet went limp and he almost collapsed to the ground.

After stabilizing his figure, Xiao Yunshan immediately turned around and walked in front of the minion who spoke at the beginning.

That guy thought he was favored by the guild leader, so he pointed at Lu Xingzhou and cursed:
"Guangzhu, it's this villain, he..."

"Shh!"

Unexpectedly, as soon as this minion opened his mouth, Xiao Yunshan wiped his neck with a knife, and fell to the ground dead with a puzzled face.

Until his death, he didn't understand why the gang leader wanted to kill him.

"A bunch of bastards! Blind your dog eyes, don't you even know Master Yan Luo?"

"All Beggar Gang members, welcome Lord Yan Luo!"

Saying that, Xiao Yunshan half-kneeled in front of Lu Xingzhou, buried his head deeply.

Seeing this scene, all the minions were dumbfounded.

This person has broken into his lair, and killed them all the way recklessly.

Instead of being angry, the gang leader knelt down to make amends.

What a terrifying figure this is!
Thinking of this, their legs softened and they knelt down.

As for the elders of the beggar gang, their actions were even faster.

Although they had never seen Lu Xingzhou, they immediately reacted when they heard the words "Blood Yama", and knelt down on the ground first.

In an instant, all around knelt together, and everyone was silent.

"This this……"

The guard who helped Lu Xingzhou lead the way was dumbfounded.

When he saw the gang leader and a group of elders rushing out aggressively, he thought that he, the leading party, was doomed.

I didn't expect things to develop like this.

It seems that what he led in was a big shot!

……

Lu Xingzhou walked slowly to Xiao Yunshan, and asked in a cold voice:
"How much do you know about the corpse case in the royal tomb and the cat demon case?"

"The little man has only heard about it, but he hasn't investigated it carefully. If Lord Yan Luo is interested, give the little man a month, and I will definitely send the relevant information to you!"

At this moment, Xiao Yunshan's drooping head was covered with cold sweat.

He was originally just an ordinary elder in the beggar gang, at most he could only be regarded as the middle class.

It was thanks to Lu Xingzhou who killed all the beggar gang bosses above him that he became the leader of the gang.

To this day, Xiao Yunshan can't forget the scene of blood flowing like a river!

Facing such a killing god, he couldn't think of any resistance.

What's more, Xiao Yunshan heard that just a few hours ago, the mighty Eighth Prince fell into the hands of this killer.

In the face of such an existence, in addition to being subdued, it is still submissive.

Just begging him to spare his life.

……

Lu Xingzhou shook his head slightly.

"One month is too long, half a month."

"Lord Yan Luo, these two cases are very complicated. I'm afraid for half a month..."

"Ten days."

"Okay, ten days will be ten days, ten days will be ten days!"

Xiao Yunshan, who wanted to bargain at first, wanted to cry without tears, so he could only agree without hesitation, for fear that Lu Xingzhou would shorten the time further.

"Do well and don't let me down."

Facing such an interesting guy, Lu Xingzhou casually made a point.

Then his figure flashed, and he took a few steps and disappeared on the roof.

"call--"

After Lu Xingzhou left, Xiao Yunshan let out a long sigh of relief, feeling exhausted as if he had gone through a big battle.

The subordinates around looked at each other in blank amazement.

Is this still the usual cruel and irritable Chief Xiao?
Why is it like a dog?
Seeing everyone's reaction, Xiao Yunshan was furious, pointed at them and cursed:
"What are you still doing in a daze? Find clues and investigate the case!"

"If no useful clues can be found after ten days, I will kill you all before the blood Yan Luo arrives, and let you little bastards accompany me on the road!"

"Go and investigate the case!"

Hearing this burst of cursing, everyone in the Beggar Clan finally reacted.

They dispersed and went to investigate separately.

……

In the distance, seeing this scene, Lu Xingzhou withdrew his gaze and ran towards his home.

Looking at the entire Dayan, the beggar gang is the largest gang in terms of numbers, and it is much larger than the second gang.

The gang is numerous and mixed.

After years of development, a unique and huge intelligence system has been formed, and it is very good at collecting intelligence.

Faced with these two weird and difficult cases, Lu Xingzhou decided to use the power of the beggar gang to collect relevant clues and intelligence.

……

"Ok?"

As he was on his way, Lu Xingzhou suddenly stopped.

A special signal came from the body on the other side of the strange world, something happened there!

Lu Xingzhou looked left and right, then turned around and rushed towards Jiaofang Division.

It's closer over there.

"Huh? Brother Lu, why are you back again?"

Ji Nianyao, who had already planned to leave, couldn't help being overjoyed when she saw Lu Xingzhou go and come back, and thought he had changed his mind.

"I have something important to do, stay overnight, don't let anyone disturb me."

Lu Xingzhou was in a hurry to return to the Weird World, and after giving an order, he pushed Ji Nianyao out, closed the door with a "bang", and locked it by the way.

The bright and charming beautiful young woman was shut out of the door just like that, facing the cold door alone.

Ji Nianyao: ...
