My cells devour all worlds.

As for the others, they were thrown out of the escort agency one by one by the remaining guards and porters.

They were piled up with the soldiers in the street.

They were waiting for the government officials to come and collect the body.

Those outside were alright; at most, they suffered ear injuries or were knocked unconscious.

Those closer to the scene, like Tian Shi, who took full damage from Lu Sheng's sonic waves, fell into a deep sleep on the spot.

Some people, even if they are lucky enough to still be alive, are actually no different from being dead.

In his rage, Lu Sheng showed no mercy.

If it weren't for the concern that losing control would injure Shen Qingshu and the others, the situation would likely have been even more dire.

At this time.

Liu Er and Su Qi helped Dong He to Shen Tianxiong and the others.

"Chief镖头, we've brought Chief镖头 Dong... here."

Shen Tianxiong carefully examined Dong He and clearly saw some scars on the other party.

He frowned. "Chief镖东, why are you in Tian Shi's hands, yet you still speak up for them and slander Qing Shu?"

Head镖东 lowered his head, overwhelmed with shame. "Chief镖头, I have let down the镖局 (镖局 is a security agency) and the少镖头 (Young镖头 is a senior镖头). My whole family has been captured by them. If I don't obey them, they will kill my entire family."

"Chief镖师 (chief镖师 is a term for a bodyguard/escort), please spare my family for the sake of all the years I've spent escorting goods. I'm willing..."

At this point, Dong He suddenly broke free from Su Qi and Liu Er's control, gathered all his internal energy, and pressed it against his own chest without hesitation.

He was about to commit suicide.

Shen Tianxiong suddenly reached out and grabbed Dong He's wrist in advance.

"If what you say is true, then it's not your fault. You should go and rest. If it's true, I will find a way to help you."

Dong He's voice trembled with tears, "Chief镖头, I..."

Shen Tianxiong waved his hand, "Go, take Chief Dong down to rest."

After Dong He left, Shen Tianxiong looked at Su Wenyuan, who had recovered somewhat.

"Brother Wenyuan, do you know why the imperial court is suddenly targeting our Changfeng Escort Agency? Didn't we just agree that everything would be fine?"

"Oh, right, I haven't thanked you yet for sending Wanqing to risk her life to inform us."

Although it didn't serve any purpose, it was still commendable that they took the initiative.

"..."

Su Wenyuan thought for a moment, then shook his head. "I don't know about this either."

As an imperial censor, he had limited information, only knowing that the Changfeng Escort Agency had committed a crime and that the court would take significant action.

He was merely there to exercise his supervisory authority.

Judging from the current situation of Changfeng Escort Agency, it is clear that Eunuch Chen and others deliberately slandered them.

As for his purpose, he had no idea.

Moreover, things developed in a way that far exceeded his expectations.

Su Wenyuan never expected that a martial arts grandmaster would be so powerful that even the imperial court had to treat him with caution. Shen Tianxiong even lost his fear of imperial power because of Lu Sheng.

As for his own daughter, he dared not mention it at all.

If Wanqing hadn't been here today, he probably would have ended up like Tian Shi and the others.

Thinking of this, Su Wenyuan felt a chill run down his spine, unsure whether he felt relieved or terrified.

"I know a little about this..."

Lu Sheng shared the information he had learned at Lanyue Tower and his speculation that the court wanted to use this opportunity to establish its authority.

Especially since he had just seen Qingli, it's likely that Lanyue Tower was also involved.

Fortunately, he didn't act impulsively. With his strength not yet having completed the training stage, it wouldn't be easy for him to win against Eunuch Chen.

Add in other people and it becomes even harder to say.

"That must be it."

Shen Tianxiong sneered, "If it weren't for Sheng'er, they might have really succeeded."

Shen Qingshu, seemingly lost in thought, winked and asked, "Brother Sheng, what does the Moon-Gazing Fairy look like? Is she really as beautiful as a celestial being?"

Lu Sheng thought for a moment, "It seems... alright?"

He remembered that the other party's internal energy techniques were quite good, and the medicine in Lanyue Tower smelled very good.

As for whether a person is good-looking or not, is that more important than martial arts?

Shen Qingshu: "..."

What kind of answer is that?

Beside Su Wenyuan, Su Wanqing lowered her eyes, not revealing her father's ulterior motives.

Xiao Huan felt extremely uncomfortable, her eyes darting around, completely avoiding Lu Sheng's gaze.

After learning of Lu Sheng's extraordinary strength, Xiao Huan realized something.

Why does Lu Sheng always "bully" her?

She had heard Young Master Shen say that martial artists have keen senses, and the powerful ones can even hear sounds from dozens of meters away.

Does that mean she was overheard every time she spoke ill of Young Master Lu to the young lady?!

Realizing this, Xiao Huan's face began to heat up rapidly, and even steam began to rise from the top of her head.

"Xiao Huan, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Su Wanqing noticed Xiao Huan's unusual behavior.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Huan shook her head vigorously, assuring everyone that she was alright.

But the thing she least wanted to see still happened.

A familiar figure came into her view.

Xiao Huan secretly looked up and met Lu Sheng's amused gaze.

"what……"

Xiao Huan exclaimed in surprise, then seemed to understand something and finally did not dodge. "Young Master Lu...it was all Xiao Huan's fault before. If anyone should be punished, it should be Xiao Huan alone."

Seeing Xiao Huan's selfless and righteous appearance, Lu Sheng couldn't help but chuckle. "Don't worry, I'm a magnanimous person. I don't even remember the seventy-four times you've spoken ill of me."

Xiao Huan breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the first part of the sentence.

Huh? Seventy-four times?

It's over...

……

People invited by the Changfeng Escort Agency came to help, and what happened inside the agency spread like wildfire.

It quickly became the talk of the town in Linjiang Prefecture.

The area outside Changfeng Escort Agency was particularly conspicuous, filled with soldiers from the state army and the Jing'an Division; it was impossible not to notice it.

The news quickly reached the prefectural government.

The Jing'an Division Commander Yue Shan, Governor Tian Shi, Grand Eunuch Chen, and many other state troops and Jing'an Division officers were all involved in the incident at the same time.

Upon hearing this news, the prefect, who was having a passionate conversation with his third concubine, shuddered and rolled off the bed.

He scrambled and stumbled out the door.

Not long after.

A group of grumbling constables arrived heavily outside Changfeng Escort Agency, their expressions instantly turning serious.

First, he respectfully asked the porter at the gate to report the news. Only after receiving a response did he dare to arrange for people to lift the soldiers and officers lying haphazardly at the gate onto the carriage and transport them away.

As for Eunuch Chen, whom they were unable to meet, they dared not ask or say a word more.

Before long, the area outside Changfeng Escort Agency was completely transformed, with not even a speck of extra trash remaining.

Inside the Changfeng Escort Agency.

Having stabilized his cultivation level, Lu Sheng went to the backyard and headed towards a storage room.

Upon hearing the noise, Luo, the bodyguard in the outhouse, opened the door. Seeing Lu Sheng, a hint of embarrassment appeared on his face. "Young Master Lu, no matter what methods I use, Eunuch Chen refuses to utter a single word."

Lu Sheng glanced at the bloodstains on Luo the bodyguard's hands, then looked into the room.

They saw the instruments of torture laid out on the table, and the heavily wounded and unharmed Eunuch Chen.

The opponent is now only clinging to life by a last breath.

Lu Sheng had come before and, to prevent the other party from committing suicide, he had specifically crippled the other party's cultivation.

Several hours have passed, and they still haven't given up?

Lu Sheng withdrew his gaze. "Since that's the case, let's give him a quick death."

After saying that, Lu Sheng turned and left.

He never placed his hopes on Eunuch Chen. Now that he was powerful enough, he could simply make the trip himself.

While pondering, Lu Sheng suddenly turned his head, reached out his palm, and grabbed the flying object.

Then, following the trajectory and looking up, I saw a shadow flash by in my field of vision.

Did you come to me on your own before I even went to look for you?
