My cells devour all worlds.

Chapter 37 Enthusiastic Sponsorship

Someone is trying to frame him!

Dong He realized it instantly.

No, it should be that they want to frame Changfeng Escort Agency!

At this moment, the other bodyguards and the remaining escorts rushed into the courtyard. Upon seeing this scene, they couldn't help but gasp in shock, their faces filled with horror.

Who is so cruel!

The bodyguard's voice trembled slightly, "Head镖师 Dong, what exactly happened here?"

Despite having escorted many goods, this was the first time they had ever witnessed something like this.

Dong He's face darkened. "Someone is trying to frame our escort agency. Let's go! We need to leave Qingyun Prefecture immediately and return to the agency to report to the head镖师 (chief镖师).

Dong He quickly mounted his horse and, before the news could spread completely, led his men out of Qingyun Prefecture.

……

The events that occurred at Lanyue Tower that day quickly spread to various places through the mouths of the hundreds of people present.

Another expert has been added to the list of defeated opponents of the Myriad Laws Asura.

To everyone's astonishment, the one who was defeated this time was none other than the renowned and incredibly mysterious Moon-Gazing Fairy.

This made everyone even more curious about the true identity of Wanfa Shura.

As the Su family lived not far from Lanyue Tower, they easily found out what happened next.

Shen Qingshu, who was having tea and chatting with Su Mingyuan in his courtyard, smiled awkwardly and said, "It seems I misunderstood him that day."

Shen Qingshu couldn't help but blush slightly at his own thoughts that day.

Especially his own deduction about his father, which was clearly just the fake Asura's words to appease him, yet he took it seriously.

He mistakenly believed that Wanfa Shura was no match for his father.

Fortunately, no one knows.

Awkward, Shen Qingshu was also somewhat puzzled.

Why didn't Wanfa Shura challenge his father?

He couldn't help but recall the story he had heard in the teahouse. Could it be that the Shen family's Canglan Blade really had some flaw that he was unaware of?

So that's why Senior Wanfa Shura didn't challenge him?

Shen Qingshu's mind was a bit of a mess.

I should ask my father when I get back.

Seeing this, Su Mingyuan laughed and comforted her, "Qingshu, don't worry about it. It's always good to be cautious. If I were in your shoes, I would have made the same judgment as you."

As the two were talking, Su Mu walked into the courtyard, glanced at Su Mingyuan, and said, "Young Master, there are more than a dozen people outside. The leader claims to be Chief Escort Dong of Changfeng Escort Agency. He wants to see Young Master Shen."

A hint of surprise flashed across Shen Qingshu's face. "So fast? It's only been a few days?"

Could something have happened?

Thinking of this, Shen Qingshu couldn't sit still any longer and hurriedly said to Su Mingyuan, "Something may have happened, Brother Mingyuan, I'll go and take a look right away."

Su Mingyuan naturally had no objections.

"Please make yourself at Qing Shu's."

At the entrance of the Su residence.

"...Young Master Escort, that's how it is."

Upon seeing Shen Qingshu emerge, Dong He immediately recounted everything that had happened at Qingyun Prefecture.

There's also his own speculation.

"Understood. I will go and say goodbye to the Su family now. We will set off immediately."

Shen Qingshu realized the seriousness of the situation and, without any delay, immediately found Su Mingyuan and told him that he wanted to leave.

"What's wrong, Qingshu? Is there something wrong with our hospitality?"

Su Mingyuan was somewhat surprised upon hearing this.

Shen Qingshu shook his head. "Brother Mingyuan, you flatter me. I have some private matters to attend to at home, so please excuse me for not being able to stay any longer."

Seeing Shen Qingshu's serious expression, Su Mingyuan knew that the other party was not joking.

He didn't try to stop her, but instead asked, "What about your sister?"

If possible, Su Mingyuan naturally hoped that Su Wanqing could have more contact with Shen Qingshu.

Shen Qingshu hesitated for a moment, but still refused, "This time it won't work. We plan to ride back to Qingzhou, and Miss Su is afraid she won't be able to withstand the bumpy ride."

Has the situation really gotten this serious?

Su Mingyuan was a little curious, but he knew it was the other party's family matter and he shouldn't pry.

"In that case, I won't keep you any longer, Qing Shu. Take care on your journey."

It seems we'll have to find someone else to escort Wanqing back to Qingzhou.

Watching Shen Qingshu's departing figure, Su Mingyuan hesitated for a moment, then decided to write a letter and give it to Su Wanqing to deliver to her father.

My father might know something and could perhaps be of some help.

After saying goodbye, Shen Qingshu called Lu Sheng, and before he could even see Su Wanqing, he joined Dong He's group.

Dozens of people rode away on horseback.

Rest stop along the way.

Shen Qingshu held the wooden box that Dong He had given him, looking at it from left to right, completely baffled.

"Brother Sheng, what do you think the Canglang Gang is really up to?"

The Canglang Gang and their Changfeng Escort Agency were both located in Linjiang Prefecture.

The relationship wasn't particularly good, but it wasn't bad either.

There is interaction between the two sides.

Why would they suddenly launch an attack, especially at the cost of dozens of lives in their own gang, to frame someone?

According to Chief镖头 Dong, this was a case of framing someone.

The injuries on the dead members of the Canglang Gang were surprisingly consistent with the swordsmanship habits of Chief Escort Dong.

Considering the behavior of the contact person, Qi Yuan, what else could this be but a frame-up?

The Canglang Gang likely planned this all along when they entrusted the goods to the caravan.

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?

But why do that?

Shen Qingshu couldn't understand it.

There should be no conflict of interest or hatred between the two companies.

What are you doing?

Of course, it's a bluff, a feint to one side while secretly advancing another.

Based on the information he obtained at Lanyue Tower, Lu Sheng quickly guessed the answer.

It's likely that the other side has prepared more than just this one tactic.

Lu Sheng felt that Fairy Lan Yue might be hiding something from him.

The Canglang Gang is probably not hiding remnants of the previous dynasty; it's highly likely that it was founded by people from the previous dynasty.

Now that we've been exposed by accident, we can only try to muddy the waters and let the real person who possesses the Mysterious Water Scripture leave safely.

However, he could never say those words aloud.

Lu Sheng had no interest in finding the Mysterious Water Scripture.

Putting aside whether he can find it or not, even if he does, given his current abilities, whether he can actually obtain it is another matter.

He knew nothing about whether there were any remaining masters from the previous dynasty or who the people sent by the imperial court were.

Although Fairy Lanyue said she didn't know, the imperial court would never send someone weak when it came to the Xuan Shui True Scripture.

Instead of going looking for them, we should wait for them to decide the outcome, and then try to take it when we have enough strength.

Moreover, he also had Shen Qingshu as a target to keep an eye on.

We can't afford any problems.

Especially now, regardless of whether the imperial court is framing them or not, they will definitely not let Changfeng Escort Agency go before they obtain the Xuan Shui True Scripture.

The imperial court might even be considering using this opportunity to rectify the martial arts world.

Changfeng Escort Agency is very likely the chicken.

So Lu Sheng just ate the dry biscuit roll he was holding, preparing for the possible battle ahead.

He glanced at the box in Shen Qingshu's hand, which was still sealed with wax.

Although I knew it probably didn't contain the Mysterious Water Scripture, I still couldn't help but feel curious:

"Chew, chew, chew... How would I know? Why don't you open the box and see what's inside?"

As for how the great medicine came about, it was naturally because Fairy Lan Yue saw his imposing presence and elegant demeanor and couldn't help but generously sponsor it.

He didn't want it, but she insisted on giving it to him.

no way.

Ugh.

"……never mind."

Looking at Lu Sheng's expression, Shen Qingshu couldn't help but sigh and silently put the box away.

This is evidence proving their agency's innocence; it must not be destroyed.

He's so stupid, really.

Why is he telling Lu Sheng all this? Isn't that like casting pearls before swine?

All Sheng-ge does is eat and sleep; how could he possibly expect Sheng-ge to know the reason?

Ignoring Shen Qingshu's inner turmoil, Lu Sheng finished his meal and casually found a spot to sit on the ground, taking a short rest like the others.

Lu Sheng glanced around, then stretched out his palm and approached a blade of grass beside him.

Even though his palm hadn't touched the weeds, they seemed to have been cut by an invisible blade and fell into Lu Sheng's hand.

If you use your other hand to feel it, you can feel a layer of flowing air around your palm.
