The Imperial Guards, like Yama, slaughtered until the Empress cried out for help.

Luoshui Town Fusi.

Shen Qing, dressed in a silver flying fish robe and holding the Qinghe Blade at his waist, slowly walked out of the house, exuding a heroic and spirited air.

The scholar immediately stepped forward and flattered, "Boss, these clothes are practically tailor-made for you!"

"Exactly, exactly!" Lin Zikai quickly chimed in, "I've never realized how beautiful these clothes were before!"

Shen Qing laughed heartily.

"You two certainly know how to talk."

Although he hates flattery, there's one thing he can't deny.

People who know how to flatter really have a pleasant voice and find it easier to get by in the workplace.

The scholar chuckled: "Sir, what you're saying is ridiculous. Even if you asked us to praise others, we couldn't do it. You have to be strong yourself to succeed."

Shen Qing waved his hand: "Stop flattering me, mount your horse and let's go see my new territory."

An hour ago, Shen Qing had just arrived in Luoshui City and went straight to the Zhenfu Division.

There are still two households waiting to be assigned jurisdictions.

After some debate, Shen Qing chose the western district of Luoshui City, while the other two chose the northern district and the subordinate Bashan City, respectively.

As soon as he stepped out of the Zhenfu Division, the scholar hurriedly approached Shen Qing.

"Boss, I went to check things out when you went in. The West District you're going to take up your post isn't very peaceful."

Old Li looked at the scholar with some suspicion.

"We've only been in Luoshui City for an hour. Where did you go to find out about the western district?"

The scholar straightened the joystick: "Where did you think I just went?"

"These Imperial Guards are all colleagues; gathering information shouldn't be too difficult."

"Let me tell you, there are three jurisdictions in total this time."

"The other two districts are quite ordinary, but the West District is extraordinary. Most of the black market transactions in Luoshui City are concentrated in the West District."

"Big things happen here every now and then; people dying is a common occurrence."

"Correspondingly, the Imperial Guards here are the busiest."

"This is the toughest of the tough."

"Recently, this area has started to fall into chaos again. Several martial arts sects have entered Luoshui City, seemingly fighting over something."

"Some say it's a divine weapon, others say it's an extraordinary martial arts manual; opinions vary widely."

"So far, more than a dozen sects have been identified, such as the Red Cloud Sect and the Green Forest Sword Sect, all of which have sent people here."

Old Li and Lin Zikai both frowned upon hearing this. Was it really that dangerous?

Shen Qing felt a little itchy. Danger was good, because without danger, where would he get the entries? Where would he snatch the pills?

Shen Qing smiled calmly: "Let's go, let's go quickly. Now that you mention it, I'm getting a little impatient."

"Let me see just how hard their bones are."

At the same time, many thugs in the West District shivered, looked up at the sky, and muttered something.

"I have a bad feeling about this."

......

Luoshui City West District.

The Jinyiwei (Imperial Guard) Hundred-Household Office was unusually lively, with people on both sides, and arguments rising and falling.

On the left, a junior officer with a mustache was making a lot of noise, fueled by alcohol.

"Brother Ma, to be honest, I'm really indignant on your behalf."

"Why should this position of centurion be given to someone else? In my opinion, it should be given to you."

"In terms of strength, Brother Ma, you killed a peak Acquired Realm cultivator three months ago. In terms of seniority, you've been working in the Embroidered Uniform Guard for over a decade."

"In what way are you inferior to this newcomer? I'm truly indignant on your behalf!"

The burly Captain Ma Kui took a big gulp of wine, his face flushed, and slammed the wine jar on the table, shouting in a low voice.

"The people in the Zhenfu Division just told me that the newcomer is just a twenty-year-old greenhorn."

"If you ask me, this is another one with powerful connections!"

The group on the right, led by Commander Fang Ming, was much quieter, simply drinking lightly.

A junior officer grumbled, "He's good at bragging. If you ask me, he shouldn't be the one to become a centurion. It should be our Brother Fang."

"That's what I'm saying..."

Although the sound was soft, it resonated with many people, and things looked like they were about to get chaotic.

Fang Ming turned around and glared at them, and they quieted down again.

Fang Ming was also very dissatisfied, but he would endure it.

At least until he sees Shen Qing, he won't get too worked up.

If Shen Qing really has powerful backers after the meeting, then it wouldn't be a bad idea to assist him for a few years. Perhaps Shen Qing will be promoted again in a few years, and if he serves him well, he might even get some benefits.

If it really doesn't work, there's still time to come up with something else.

Fang Ming glanced at Ma Kui with some disdain.

There are many ways to deal with this, but Ma Kui chose the worst one: jumping up and down without understanding anything.

He deserves to stay in the same position for over a decade.

Just then, a somewhat shrewd voice came from outside.

"Boss, look at this centurion's post, it's really much more impressive than the regimental post."

"That's more befitting of our boss."

The room fell silent immediately; everyone knew that the new centurion had arrived.

"Where are the people? Why is no one here when the centurion takes office..."

Before he could finish speaking, Fang Ming had already led the way and run out, with his underlings quickly following behind.

Ma Kui's underlings also wanted to move, but stopped when they saw that Ma Kui was not making any move.

Outside the Hundred Households Office, Fang Ming bowed in greeting.

"Fang Ming, the captain of the Hundred Household Office in the west of Luoshui City, pays his respects to the Hundred Household Commander."

The remaining Imperial Guards roared in unison, "Greetings, Commander!"

Shen Qing nodded lightly: "No need for formalities."

Fang Ming straightened up and secretly glanced at Shen Qing a few times; she really was very young.

"Doesn't the centurion's office have two captains? Why are you the only one who came out?"

"This..." Fang Ming turned around and glanced at the Hundred Household Office.

Shen Qing understood; it seemed someone was trying to intimidate him.

"Looks like someone's causing trouble." Shen Qing waved his hand, sneered, and led his men into the Hundred Household Office.

Upon entering the Hundred Households Office, his innate six senses activated, and several malicious gazes pierced Shen Qing's face.

Shen Qing chuckled lightly. This was interesting; he already had a show on his very first day in office.

Shen Qing walked to the main seat and sat down with an air of authority.

Black Dog and the others stood on either side of Shen Qing.

"Fang Ming, sit down, I have something to say."

Fang Ming quickly returned to his seat.

Shen Qing glanced at Ma Kui, whose face was still full of disdain.

"As you can see, I'm too lazy to hide it from you anymore. I don't care about this position of centurion. I'll have to leave soon."

"While I'm in power, you'd better behave and not cause trouble. After I leave, this position will still be yours."

"Of course, if you want to see what I'm capable of, you can try causing trouble."

The junior officer behind Ma Kui immediately moved closer to him.

"Boss, look, he's backing down."

Ma Kui was secretly pleased with himself. What was a centurion? He could easily manipulate him.

His lips curled slightly upward, and his voice was deliberately calm.

"Well, since you've put it that way, I guess I might as well talk about these kinds of people..."

In the next instant, Shen Qing's figure flashed in front of Ma Kui, looking down at him.

A powerful aura surged forth, and the oppressive feeling unique to the Innate Realm swept over us.

Ma Kui stopped abruptly, swallowed hard, and felt an unusual difficulty in breathing.

Shen Qing's voice rang out.

"What are you still doing here? And you're barking like a dog?"

"Still taking this personally? Was I saying that to you?"

"If you're not willing to submit to me, then be more sensible and get out of here. Don't make trouble for yourself."

Ma Kui tried to get up and say something, but his legs felt like lead and he couldn't stand up at all.

"Don't go too far. Let me tell you, in the town of Luoshui, I'm considered a big shot. Don't you dare..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was sent flying like a cannonball, crashing through several doors before finally stopping when he hit the artificial hill in the courtyard of the centurion's office.

Ma Kui lay among the ruins, struggled for a moment, then rolled his eyes and fainted.

Everyone in the room held their breath, unsure of what to do.

Shen Qing's voice rang out again.

"Are you still not leaving? Do you want me to ask you to leave too?"

As soon as these words were spoken, these people practically crawled out of the room, grabbing Ma Kui in a flurry and running towards the centurion's quarters.

They didn't dare to breathe until they left the Hundred Household Office.

A square-faced young officer swallowed hard, his legs still trembling. "I feel like I almost died just now."

"Is it just a feeling? I feel like I've died once, and I even managed to vomit a few drops of urine."

Square-faced Xiaoqi sniffed: "Only a few drops? Then why do I smell urine?"

He glanced around and his expression changed drastically.

"Oh no, the boss wet his pants!"
