Chapter 925.
In order to answer Pang Tai’s question, Wang Chen had no choice but to explain his, or rather Ling Zhiyuan’s, life.
In fact, his identity had long been recorded in the Blood Clothes Guards’ files, so there was no need to hide anything.
After listening to Pang Tai, he revealed an expression of “really so”: “This is very possible, but Ling Zhiyuan ……”
This Chief Flag said in a deep voice: “Without conclusive evidence, we Blood Clothes Guards cannot rely on mere speculation to convict, I hope you can understand.”
Not to mention the fact that no one was caught alive this time, even if they were, there was no way to pull out the truth from the assassins’ mouths.
Because these assassins were only carrying out a mission, as for who wanted Wang Chen’s life, it was flatly impossible for them to know!
Without direct evidence and confessions, the Linjiang Guards would at best report this case to the Prefectural Guards, and couldn’t run to Anyang City themselves to find Ling Hongfeng to ask for the crime.
Pang Tai’s words also have a root cause.
Although the Blood Clothes Guards are a force directly belonging to the Da Liang royal family, and are considered to be the imperial soldiers of the Son of Heaven, the terms of reference have strict limitations.
Historically, the Blood Clothes Guards were once powerful, and as a result, they almost shook the foundation of the country.
The Blood Clothes Guards were once faced with disbanding.
With such a lesson, today’s Blood Clothes Guards could not and did not dare to easily overstep the regulations.
“But you want to take back the position of the head of the family ……”
Pang Tai’s words changed, “I can help you.”
Don’t look at the fact that Pang Tai was only a Chief Banner, and that Anyang City was separated from Linjiang City by a county several thousand miles, but he still had many ways to deal with Ling Hongfeng if he wanted to.
“Thank you, my lord!”
Wang Chen saluted, “But my subordinate has sworn to seek justice on his own to comfort my late father’s spirit in heaven!”
If he wanted to use the power of the Blood Clothes Guards, he could have completely sought Wei Zhengxiong’s help in the past.
Wei Zhengxiong was a Hundred Households, and his position of power was much higher than Pang Tai.
This karma, Wang Chen must personally end it!
“Hm.”
Pang Tai nodded, “That’s good.”
He skipped over this topic and said sternly, “Now that the rebellious party is rampant, paganism is at work, and the Subterranean Dragon Society is stirring up the winds and waves, our Blood Clothes Guards have a great responsibility, so all of you must remember to retain your usefulness, and serve for the Great Liang and the Emperor!”
A group of small flags responded in unison, “Willing to serve and die for the Emperor!”
“Very well.”
Pang Tai said to Wang Duan, “Ling Zhiyuan, you should also be careful again and again, it’s best not to go out alone in the future, the Subterranean Dragon Society failed to assassinate them once, and will likely send their experts over again.”
It was said that the Subterranean Dragon Society took on assassination missions and believed in the principle that things don’t happen three times.
They would make three attempts, and if they couldn’t assassinate the target three times, then they would pay out double the employer’s honorarium.
And the assassins sent out by the Subterranean Dragon Society would become stronger and stronger!
A trace of pity appeared in the eyes of the several small flags as they looked at Wang Dust.
Being targeted by the Subterranean Dragon Society was not a good thing, Wang Chuan was only a sixteen year old teenager no matter how talented he was, his cultivation strength was limited, and if he could avoid the assassination this time, he might not be so lucky next time.
Pang Tai, of course, is also very clear about this point, thought for a moment and said, “During this period of time, you first do not live outside, there is no need to go out on a mission, I will report to the Prefecture before making a decision.”
If Wang Chen was assassinated by the Subterranean Dragon Society, he, the Chief Flag, was also responsible.
“Yes.”
Wang Dust was more or less helpless, but it was impossible to defy Pang Tai’s decision, so he only agreed.
The next morning, Wang Dust moved back to live in the guardhouse.
However, he was already a Little Flag, and his welfare benefits were greatly improved, so his living conditions in the guardhouse were much better than they were originally.
Therefore it didn’t affect his usual cultivation either.
And on the third night of his promotion to Little Flag, an eye-catching message suddenly brushed out in the field of vision.
[Qi Luck +7]
Wang Dust’s Qi Luck value unexpectedly jumped from 3 points to 7 points in one go.
Not only that, a skill bar was silently added inside the panel, and there was an additional skill inside.
[Name: Wang Dust (Ling Zhiyuan)]
[Age: 16]
[Cultivation: Martial General]
[Technique: Xuan Tian Seven Deadly Wheel (Swallow Thief): 137/400]
[Skill: Qi Looking]
[Potential: 15]
[Qi Luck: 10]
This added skill was called “Qi Looking Art”, except that there was no experience value behind it, so obviously it could not be upgraded.
Wang Chen tried to stimulate this added skill.
[Potential-1]
His potential points were immediately consumed by 1 point.
As a result, Wang Chuan waited quietly for a moment, nothing happened, and his body didn’t feel any abnormalities.
It couldn’t be, could it?
After thinking about it, Wang Chen immediately went to his bedroom room and looked at himself in the silver mirror placed on the table.
This silver mirror is well-made, the effect of looking at it is not inferior to the mirrors in Wang Chuan’s previous life, and he immediately saw the clues.
Only to see that on the top of Wang Chen’s head, a faint pillar of qi had appeared, showing a grayish-white luster.
Wang Chen instantly realized in his heart – this was his own qi manifestation in this world!
Undoubtedly, his qi luck had a great deal to do with his own identity, and the 7 points of increased qi luck value just now was 100% the effect of the promotion of the Little Flag.
Wang Chen guessed that once he lost this official position, then his qi would immediately be knocked back to its original form!
But on the other hand, his choice to enter the Blood Clothes Guard’s system in the first place was undoubtedly a very correct choice.
Only by joining the system could he share in the system’s qi.
If one did not take this path, could one still receive the qi fortune?
Wang Chen believed that it was possible.
But it was bound to be quite difficult and would never be as easy as it was now!
This made Wang Chen even more determined and confident to move up the ladder within the Blood Clothes Guards system, and he practiced diligently every day in the guardhouse, devoting more time to the cultivation of the Xuan Tian Seven Deadly Wheel and the accumulation of potential points.
As for the assassination incident against Spring Moon Tower, it took almost ten days for feedback to come back from the Prefecture City side.
The first thing was that Wang Dust got another minor merit reward for killing six Subterranean Dragon Society assassins in the Spring Moon Building that day.
In addition, Wang Chuan also received a pair of secret inner armor.
It was said that this inner armor came from the inner sanctum, designed and manufactured for the elite soldiers of the Blood Clothes Guards, and it was a first-class soft armor that was invulnerable to swords and spears, and difficult to be injured by energy and qi.
Worth more than a thousand taels of silver!
And such a reward was not rare, Pang Tai had expressed his envy.
The value of the secret inner armor was secondary, the key was to see that the higher-ups valued and appreciated Wang Chuan, the young genius, and were unwilling to see him die halfway.
In the following days, Wang Chuan continued his training in the guardhouse.
Linjiang City has been quiet, the Yellow Lotus Sect has not appeared again, and the Subterranean Dragon Society seems to have given up assassinating Wang Chuan, and no new killers have arrived.
But Wang Chen did not take it lightly.
In fact, there was always a layer of shadow hanging over his heart, making him constantly vigilant.
Even when he was in the guardhouse, he did not relax or slacken off in the slightest.
Time passed day by day, and in a flash it was another three months.
