Chapter 844: Visit of the Royal Advisor
Lv Xingshi withdrew from the practice. Today was the eighth day since he condensed the extraordinary seed·Heart of the Earth. His strength was in a period of rapid explosion, but now he began to recover to a snail's pace.
Now the breathing method and meditation method can be practiced at the same time. Before, the breathing method had to be carried out in conjunction with the action. Now it is different. It can be improved by directly cooperating with the extraordinary seed·Heart of the Earth.
So Lu Xingshi can practice dual cultivation with a specific breathing frequency and rhythm while meditating.
"Self-cultivation is still too laggy..." Lu Xingshi was quite helpless.
If reaching the next stage is a percentage, he has only completed one hundred thousandth of the progress.
No wonder the three people in the kingdom progressed so slowly. It's not that they don't want to, but they really can't do it.
The elemental particle content in the external environment is simply a drop in the bucket for reaching the level of Great Knight and Great Wizard.
Even Lu Xingshi has been knocking on the perfect quality small earth element essence to make progress.
If nothing unexpected happens, even if he relies on krypton gold, he will need 100,000 days to break through, which is equivalent to nearly 274 years.
He can live this long, but the speed is really unbearable, and this is just the beginning.
Of course, if it were someone else, this would not be certain. His progress bar is 100,000% because of his good qualifications and krypton gold.
The progress bar of others is estimated to have to add two or three digits.
If the environment meets the standard, his progress bar is estimated to be gone, and he can break through in two or three days at most.
"It's not all bad news. At least it leaves me enough time to reconcile the problem between fighting spirit and magic power." Lu Xingshi couldn't help but laugh at himself.
Slow progress is barely a benefit.
He is now undergoing the transformation of automatic cultivation, but he has no motivation.
As for the earth element particles in the environment, there is not much difference between cultivation and non-cultivation.
As for the earth element essence, he only has ten pieces left, and most of them were used by him to condense the extraordinary seed of the heart of the earth.
Otherwise, where would the ten effects come from, and each effect is extraordinary.
He stood up and left. He planned to go to the capital. Before that, he had to inform the territorial officials.
As soon as he stood up, he noticed someone outside the door. According to his judgment, it should be the butler.
His strength has improved, and his perception has naturally not fallen behind.
"What's the matter?" He asked after opening the door.
Before that, Lu Xingshi had instructed that no one should disturb him without his order.
So the butler had something to do, but he didn't dare to disturb him, so he could only wait at the door.
"My lord, the capital sent someone to investigate the cause of death of Viscount Moko."
"You are busy, I have arranged the reception for the time being." The butler briefly summarized the situation.
Lu Xingshi was not surprised. Viscount Moko was the unlucky nobleman chosen by Lu Xingshi.
Because of the burning effect of the new white rock potion No. 2, the death of Viscount Moko looked a bit scary, and he completely turned into a mummy-like appearance.
After reporting, the royal family attached great importance to it. Only wizards can do this.
This means that there are wizards in this area, and coupled with the changes that the Principality of Hepa had experienced before, the royal family suspected that wizards had sneaked into the kingdom and started to cause trouble.
"Then let's meet them." Lu Xingshi was not worried at all. The other party came to the ceremony, at most asking for bribes, and he could be sent away by giving some money.
"Master, please come this way." The butler led the way in front, and soon came to the living room.
A middle-aged man wearing luxurious and decent clothes, with a mustache, was tasting the wine seriously.
The butler naturally knew that the other party was not easy to mess with, so he would not owe anything in the reception. As long as the other party was not here to make trouble, every step could not be faulted.
"Hello, Viscount Landon, I am Sirius, the royal adviser." The other party was not a noble, but worked in the royal family, so he did not report his surname, but only his first name.
Lu Xingshi also returned the greeting: "Hello, Sirius Consultant, I also know your purpose."
"I am deeply sorry for Viscount Moko's experience." Lu Xingshi was polite as soon as he came up.
When Sirius heard this, he shook his head: "Viscount Lanton, according to the assessment of other royal consultants, you are a big suspect."
Hearing this, Lu Xingshi's eyes condensed.
"Advisor Sirius, where is my suspicion?" Lu Xingshi asked back.
"First of all, Viscount Moko, his red soil territory borders Viscount Lanton's black soil territory. Even if you want to deny this, you can't deny it, not to mention that you got a mine and a forest from it."
"Of course, this is not enough to prove your suspicion."
"What really exacerbates your suspicion is the disappearance of mudstone in the Principality of Hepa."
"Grand Duke Hepa and Viscount Moko, who are hostile to you, have both had problems. This may be an accident, but you need to provide evidence to convince me." Sirius listed Lu Xingshi's problems.
For the royal family, it is not too difficult to find out this information.
Lu Xingshi narrowed his eyes and smiled: "No, no, no, you did something wrong, Sirius."
"It's not up to me to prove my innocence."
"But Sirius, you need to provide evidence to prove that the disappearance of the mudstone in the Principality of Hepa and the death of Viscount Moko in the Red Land Territory are related to me." Lu Xingshi said directly.
He would not fall into the trap of self-proof.
I am a viscount, and the other party is just a royal advisor.
So if the other party says that he did it, he has to produce evidence to prove it, not Lu Xingshi himself.
He is not an ordinary person, and Sirius has no power to smooth things over. It is impossible for you to say whatever you say.
You can't just let anyone come out and frame Lu Xingshi, the Viscount of Lanton, without any evidence and just relying on my opinion. Do you really think that his soldiers and guards are just eating dry food?
Lu Xingshi is a real and powerful lord, even if he is just a viscount.
Sirius was not surprised when he heard it.
"My Lord Viscount, this is not what I said, it is just a necessary procedure. Naturally, we have no evidence to show that you are related to these two things." Sirius will definitely not confront Lu Xingshi head-on.
This is the Black Soil Territory, not the Royal Capital. If Lu Xingshi wants to take action, he can't resist.
Of course, in the Royal Capital, he can only run at most, and dare not resist Lu Xingshi.
After all, he is just a scholar, with status, but not as good as the nobles.
"Then, how do I need to cooperate with you, Sirius, to remove my suspicion?" Lu Xingshi said, and casually took out a piece of earth element essence, of course, it was of inferior quality.
This thing is much easier to use than gold coins.
As a scholar, Sirius has never come into contact with element essence, but he has seen it in books.
Seeing Lu Xingshi's generosity, his eyes lit up.
"Well, I think it's just a misunderstanding." Sirius directly defined it.
"Advisor Sirius is indeed knowledgeable, but I still want to ask, the disappearance of mudstone in the Principality of Hepa should not only be related to me by the royal family's investigation." Lu Xingshi continued to ask.
When Sirius heard it, it was no wonder that he was so generous. It turned out that he guessed something and wanted to get confirmation from him.
"It was Grand Duke Hepa who mentioned Viscount Lanton, which made you suspicious. Otherwise, no matter which incident, it has nothing to do with you."
"But don't worry, I have confirmed the truth."
"Both incidents were done by wizards who sneaked into the kingdom." Sirius said decisively.
Between Grand Duke Hepa and Lu Xingshi, he definitely leans towards Lu Xingshi.
Without saying too much, Grand Duke Hepa did not give him any benefits when he was operating, but Lu Xingshi did.
So it is very clear who he is speaking for.
As for being afraid of offending Grand Duke Hepa? Sirius understands one thing, he is a royal advisor, not an advisor to Grand Duke Hepa.
And even if Lu Xingshi did not give, he would not help Grand Duke Hepa too much, because neither of them gave, he handled the case impartially.
But he actually knew that no matter how impartially he handled the case, it would eventually be classified as a wizard's mischief.
"As expected of you, Sirius Consultant. Unfortunately, my Black Soil Territory is too small, and I am only a viscount. Otherwise, I would definitely invite Sirius Consultant to be my consultant." Lu Xingshi complimented.
Sirius could naturally hear Lu Xingshi's compliment, but who doesn't like to hear the compliment when the sedan chair is carried by everyone?
Especially since Lu Xingshi is a powerful noble lord, he is much more powerful than the group of enfeoffed nobles in the royal capital.
"No, no, no, Viscount Lanton is a pioneer lord. If I hadn't been appointed as a royal consultant, I would have been very honored to be your consultant." Sirius followed up with a reply.
The two complimented so much, but the meaning was the same. I didn't think of recruiting you, and you wouldn't come to me. They said all nice words, but they were actually useless.
"Siris Consultant came from the royal capital, why don't you rest in Black Soil Territory for a few days so that you can communicate with the consultant." Lu Xingshi wanted to get some information from the other party.
Sirius refused: "I'm afraid it's not very convenient. I still need to visit other nobles and can't delay."
What he said was true. The first one to come was the Black Soil Territory where Lu Xingshi was, and he needed to visit other people later.
After all, the death of Viscount Moko, excluding the factor of Grand Duke Haipa, actually made Lu Xingshi the least suspicious.
Whoever makes the most profit is the most suspicious.
Lu Xingshi's profit is indeed not much. Sirius himself doesn't believe that he is the most suspicious.
"That's a pity." Lu Xingshi said regretfully.
He didn't force him to stay. The other party was a royal advisor. If he really didn't stay in his territory, he could only say that he was guilty and couldn't explain it.
Seeing Lu Xingshi like this, Sirius was helpless. What's a pity? Compared with the prosperous capital, your Black Soil Territory is a world of difference. How could he be willing to stay for two days?
After completing the task, he returned to the capital to continue his life of debauchery.
