The Great Martial Saint!

Chapter 424: The whole city is shaken, the Gu family letter

"The Northern Swordsman Guan Dongxiang Changjie invites Chen Pingan, the Rough Sword, to fight!"

"The Northern Swordsman made rude remarks and rammed the carriage, violating the laws of Daqian!"

"Guan Dongxiang was lawless and violently resisted arrest, but was suppressed by Chen Pingan with a single strike!"

"The remnant of the Tianlian Sect, Qianye Phantom Hand, was killed by the Rough Knife Chen Ping'an! The head is the proof!"

"."

News was constantly updated and spread wildly in Weishui County, causing waves of disturbance.

"How could this happen?"

"Are you kidding me? Chen Pingan suppressed the Northern Swordsman with one sword!?"

"real or fake?"

"The Northern Swordsman, a master on the Dragon and Tiger Rankings!"

"Qianye Phantom Hand? Dead!? How is that possible?"

"The fighting power of Mang Dao Chen Pingan has reached such a level!? What kind of talent is this?"

"Hurry up and prepare the gifts to welcome Master Chen back to the city!"

"Someone, get ready to go out!"

"."

The battle on the long street shocked all parties.

No matter how many people they sent to inquire about the news, they came to only one conclusion. With one blow, the Northern Swordsman Guan Dongxiang was seriously injured and defeated!

What shocked them was not only this, but also the fact that the remnant of the Tianlian Sect, who was ranked in the top 200 on the Dragon and Tiger List, Qianye Phantom Hand, died at the hands of Mangdao Chen Pingan!
At this moment, whether it is the four major families of Weishui or any other forces, their attention to Chen Pingan has reached an unprecedented level.

No matter what others think, Chen Pingan, who is in the whirlpool of public opinion, has returned to the Weishui Pacification Office.

It is worth mentioning that as soon as Chen Ping'an's carriage arrived at the gate of the Zhenfu Division, he saw the commander-in-chief Fan Zhengheng, along with a group of middle and high-level officials of the Zhenfu Division, running out in a hurry.

"Ping An, you are so fast. I just received the message and was about to come out to pick you up, and you are already in front of the Zhenfu Division." Fan Zhengheng smiled heartily and strode forward. Behind him, a group of middle and senior executives of the Zhenfu Division clasped their fists to welcome him.

"Welcome Master Chen back to the city!"

"Lord Fan." Chen Ping'an stepped down from the carriage and bowed calmly.

Seeing this, Fan Zhengheng felt a little regretful. He never thought that Chen Ping'an's return this time would bring him such a big surprise.

Qianye Phantom Hand, that is the top master of Xuanguan who ranks 193rd on the Dragon and Tiger List!
Such a master died at the hands of Chen Ping'an. No matter how he did it, there is no doubt that Chen Ping'an's combat power has definitely surpassed him.

The fact that the northern swordsman Guan Dongxiang was seriously injured by a single blow on the long street just proved this point.

How old is he?

Thinking of this, Fan Zhengheng couldn't help feeling a little bitter.

Since ancient times, it is easy to add icing on the cake, but difficult to send charcoal in the snow. If he had known this, he would have...
But now it's too late to say anything!

Fan Zhengheng was in charge of a place, which was extraordinary. Although he felt extremely bitter in his heart, he smiled boldly and cheerfully on his face.

"I'm safe. You must be tired from the journey. Let's go in and talk first."

Chen Pingan didn't say much, just nodded slightly, and followed Fan Zhengheng into the Zhenfu Division. The Zhenfu Division officials he met along the way showed respect and awe on their faces, and greeted him one after another.

"Ping'an, how is the situation during this inspection of the Wei River? Did you gain anything?" Fan Zhengheng had a friendly face and gentle tone, pretending to be confused even though he knew the truth.

“There are some gains.”

Chen Ping'an had a calm expression and didn't say much, which was totally unlike the attitude of an ordinary subordinate towards his superior.

Fan Zhengheng laughed dryly twice, with a hint of embarrassment in his eyes.

The two men walked into the public housing unit, and Fan Zhengheng personally poured a cup of hot tea for Chen Ping'an, appearing extremely enthusiastic.

If it was another subordinate, Fan Zhengheng would have been flattered and grateful for such a move. But Chen Pingan remained calm and accepted it calmly.

During this time, Fan Zhengheng looked eager, trying to ease the atmosphere, and occasionally told some interesting stories. But Chen Pingan just responded indifferently, which made Fan Zhengheng quite bored.

Needless to say, the two of them exchanged pleasantries. After a brief conversation, Chen Pingan expressed his intention to leave.

Fan Zhengheng was originally talking about interesting things that happened recently. When he heard what Chen Pingan said, his face froze. Then he immediately realized that something was wrong and forced a smile. "Yes, yes, yes! I neglected it. Pingan, you just came back, and I'm going to talk to you about everything. You need to rest well first. When you're well, we'll talk again."

"Ah."

Chen Ping'an bowed slightly, stood up and left Fan Zhengheng's public housing.

Looking at Chen Ping'an's leaving back, Fan Zhengheng frowned slightly, with a look of regret on his face.

He seemed to have missed something.

"Master Chen."

Amid the greetings from his subordinates, Chen Pingan returned to his own public housing. He had been away from Weishui County for so many days, but the public housing was as clean and tidy as ever. Obviously, there was a special person in charge of cleaning it.

Chen Pingan sat down at the long table, looked up, and found that there was a lot of official business piled up on the table. These days, although his trusted subordinates handled official business on his behalf, there were still many key matters that required him to make the final decision.

"Sir, there is a letter for you." Chen Ping'an had not been sitting in the public housing for long when someone from the post office brought him a letter.

The letter was sealed with wax and stamped with a seal, and it was obviously a secret letter of extremely high standards.

"How long has it been delivered?"

"Your Excellency, the letter was just delivered the day before yesterday, so it has been two days since then."

"Okay." Chen Pingan waved his hand.

"Sir, I'll take my leave." The man bowed respectfully, then bent down and backed away, only turning around and leaving when he reached the door.

Chen Ping'an looked thoughtful as he studied the letter for a while before opening it and starting to read it.

"My dear friend, I am glad to see you in person."

The letter was sent by the Gu family, or more precisely, by Gu Haoqing. The content was very long, filling up several pages of paper. But to sum up, the whole letter actually had one meaning, which was to tell Chen Pingan not to be impatient, not to get stuck in a dead end, and to just practice with peace of mind. He was still young, and there was still a long way to go in the future, so there was no need to worry about the gains and losses of the moment. As the saying goes, don't let the clouds block your view, you should look at the long-term scenery, and the road of life is long, so there is no need to be impatient.

Gu Haoqing sent this letter, obviously to comfort Chen Pingan. In the battle of Sanqi Mountain, Chen Pingan made great contributions, and there was a vacancy at that time, so he had a good chance of being promoted to the commander of Liyang Zhenfu Division.

But he never expected that the Xue family would intervene and would rather sacrifice their own interests to take away his chance of promotion.

If it were just that, it would be fine, but the problem is that there is no hope of being promoted to the commander-in-chief of the Liyang Pacification Office, and the Canglongzhou Pacification Office has no other expression towards Chen Pingan.

The previous appointment announced by the Canglongzhou Pacification Division did not mention any information about Chen Pingan. Obviously, Chen Pingan's contribution during the battle of Sanqi Mountain was temporarily sealed. He would be promoted when there was a suitable opportunity.

This kind of treatment is normal in the Canglong Prefecture's Pacification Division and often occurs. After all, positions are limited, and it is impossible to say that one can be promoted immediately after making contributions. This situation becomes more obvious the higher one goes.

It's a pity for Chen Ping'an that there was a suitable opportunity right in front of him, but someone intervened and snatched it away!
It was not only Chen Pingan who was indignant about this, but also Gu Haoqing who pushed for this matter. Of course, in fact, Chen Pingan was not that indignant. In comparison, Gu Haoqing was more indignant. During the game, he was tricked by the Xue family and the Wang family several times in succession, and no one would be in a good mood.

But under such circumstances, he still sent this letter specially. It is precious for him to be able to do this.

At the end of the letter, Gu Haoqing mentioned about Chen Erya, saying that the little girl was doing well in Canglongzhou City and her studies in Canglong Academy were going very well. In less than a month, she had completely integrated into the atmosphere of the academy. He said frankly that if Chen Pingan had time, he could come to Canglongzhou City to take a look. He had also been looking forward to meeting Chen Pingan for a long time, and if he came, the two of them could meet.

"Thin! It's really thin!" Chen Pingan's brows relaxed and he couldn't help but sigh.

In the letter, Gu Haoqing shared with him the little girl's current life through words. With just a few words, he developed a liking for this elder whom he had never met.

Many times, what can move people's hearts are not those magnificent feats, but those insignificant little things hidden in the cracks of life.

Although the letter did not explicitly state the intention of loving someone and loving everyone in it, Chen Pingan could sense it very clearly.

It is a testament to his ability that he can win over people to this extent.

Chen Ping'an put down the letter and was silent for a moment.

"Gu family. Perhaps we can have a closer look."

hum~
Chen Ping'an's eyebrows flickered with spiritual light, and the true energy in his body began to surge slowly.

The Gu family has been passed down for thousands of years and has a deep family heritage. There must be a great master in the family. If he wants to have in-depth contact, his own strength is indispensable. The so-called contact is to look at each other as equals, not to be subordinate.

On the same night that Chen Ping'an returned to the city, a distorted, hideous head was hung above the Weishui City Gate.

"The remnant of the Tianlian Sect, Qianye Phantom Hand, wreaked havoc on the Wei River and brought chaos to the area. Now his head is hanging high, and the law is majestic. Those who have caused chaos in the Wei River will be heartbroken and their livers and gallbladders will tremble when they see this head! The villains will flee in panic when they see it! The Fusi is majestic and intimidates all directions! To ensure the peace of the Wei River and reassure the people!"

When the news came out, the whole city was shocked.

PS: I’ve just finished writing these. I have a headache and feel sleepy, so I’m going to bed.
