"Making a show of strength..."
Lu Ding repeated these three words, the Blood Frost at his waist trembling slightly. His left eye, with its black background and red pupil like a gemstone, shone with a viscous blood light.
He raised his hand.
The Qi of the Ticket Wind surged out, the Red Coffin opened wide, petals danced, gathering into a long blade in Lu Ding's hand.
The reason he didn't use the Blood Frost at his waist was because it was still charging up.
The reason he wore it at his waist was because Lu Ding was now a special envoy; wearing a blade signified his status.
Just like the emperor wearing a sword.
It could serve as a ceremonial object!
Lu Ding held the petal-layered long blade: "If you like to play, then let's play big."
With that, his gaze stretched into the distance.
Ahead.
The Liangcheng 749 Bureau.
A huge crowd stood at the entrance, arguing endlessly with the investigators of the Liangcheng 749 Bureau.
Director Huang, surnad Huang, stood at the forefront of our investigator team, saying sowhat anxiously.
"I've already said, we'll discuss this matter later. What I can promise you now is that you will be compensated afterwards."
At the front of the troublemaking crowd.
Several Fifth Restriction Qi Refiners roared.
"We don't want compensation, we want an explanation, we want the spirit fields!!!"
"Discuss it later, delay after delay, what if you don't honor it then? We want it handled now, we want it today!!"
Director Huang was anxious. If it weren't for the fact that the leaders of this disturbance were Fifth Restriction Qi Refiners from families in Laicheng, he would have long since taken action and directly suppressed these people.
Why would he be entangled with them here like this?
The special envoy had arrived. If he didn't go to greet him, handle the handover work, register and prepare the docunts, this wasn't just a simple violation.
So damn annoying!!
Huang Dong was getting angry: "These spirit fields aren't even from your Laicheng, what right do you have to demand them!?"
"The land where the spirit fields are located belongs to Liangcheng. It's just that the earth dragon turned over there, changing the terrain and revealing the spirit fields. You didn't ask about it before, so what exactly is the aning of coming here to cause trouble now!?"
This question actually brushed against the edge of the correct answer.
The leading few laughed.
Of course, it was a task arranged by their master.
"What else could it an? We want the spirit fields!!!"
"You want your mother!!"
Pfft!!!!
A blade wind swept in, one slash decapitating.
The speaking Fifth Restriction Qi Refiner's head shot up, blood spurting out like a fountain.
This scene instantly plunged the atmosphere into a dead silence for a mont.
Except for Fu Xinghe, everyone was frozen in place by this sudden turn of events.
Why did he suddenly attack?
Why kill as soon as he attacked?
The eight hundred accompanying investigators reacted instantly. Their leader Lu Ding had already made a move, they couldn't just stand by and watch.
Just as they were about to act, the blade flower in Lu Ding's hand swirled.
He slashed wildly, blood and petals flying together.
"You want the spirit fields!!"
Soone was cut in two by a single slash.
"You want an explanation!"
Soone was sliced at the waist!
"Even if it's not yours, you still want it!"
Soone was shattered on the spot!
"Do you want King of Hell's Book of Life and Death too!!!"
Dark red blade energy surged and rolled, in the blink of an eye, the entrance of the Liangcheng 749 Bureau was covered with severed limbs, broken arms, internal organs, and minced flesh, blood converging into streams flowing towards lower ground, pooling into puddles.
The thick, pungent sll of blood was nauseating.
Lu Ding had just heard it—these people weren't from Great Han. That made things easier!
He had said it before setting out.
Great Jing, no sheathing of blades!!
Since they ran into it, then let it start from here.
Not even a scream had ti to rise before the battle ended, as simple as cutting lons and vegetables, the enemies couldn't even get a scene.
Lu Ding flicked his blade, blood splattering off the petal-layered blade.
The eight hundred accompanying personnel who hadn't had ti to act froze mid-air.
Director Huang of Liangcheng, who hadn't had ti to speak, stood frozen in place.
Fu Xinghe spoke, addressing the eight hundred accompanying investigators: "No insight, can't even get a sip of the soup. This is the start of the mission to Great Jing."
Then he landed and stepped forward, handing over the already prepared list of materials.
"Director Huang, I am Special Envoy Lu's accompanying secretary and assistant investigator. My na is Fu Xinghe. These are the handover materials, please check them."
Huang Dong finally snapped back to reality.
Still sowhat dazed, he reached out to take the materials.
He had just brought them before his eyes.
Plop!
A drop of still-warm blood slid down his face and dripped onto the materials.
Huang Dong abruptly looked up at Lu Ding: "May I ask... are you... are you Special Envoy Lu in person?"
Lu Ding didn't sheathe his blade, instinctively glancing over with his usual habitual gaze: "I am Lu Ding. Hello, Director Huang."
Although Lu Ding, whether in cultivation or position, was far above this director.
So respect isn't determined by identity, strength, or status.
People like Huang Dong, who diligently guard border cities, deserve respect!
eting that gaze of absolute equality towards all living beings, Huang Dong's heart trembled. At this mont, in his eyes, Lu Ding, standing amidst the blood puddles and minced flesh, not stained with a speck of crimson, was gradually distorting his human form, transforming into the world's most terrifying flood beast.
If he wasn't careful, it would swallow him up too.
Even though Huang Dong had experienced many big scenes, he couldn't help but feel his heart palpitate at this current situation.
This entrance was just too explosive!
It's like, no matter how many horror movies a person watches, no matter how strong their psychological endurance, as long as they don't have prior ntal preparation, anyone would be startled by a sudden jump scare.
Although Liangcheng was far from both Hanjing and the new city.
But as a local 749 Bureau that needed to handle handovers, Huang Dong knew more or less so information about Lu Ding.
Looked up on the 749 internal network.
But information is just information.
Although the information said this Special Envoy Lu had a heavy killing nature and a bad temper, how could Huang Dong have imagined that Special Envoy Lu's killing nature would be this heavy!!!
But thankfully, he was an ally!!!
Huang Dong gradually regained his senses, his pale face slowly returning to normal, though his tone was still sowhat unnatural.
"Special... Special Envoy Lu, hello, I'm sorry, truly sorry, please don't take offense. The rest area and venue have already been prepared for you."
"Please rest and recuperate first. I'll have people clean this place up."
That's what he said.
The place could be cleaned up.
But after this Special Envoy Lu left, the trouble of so many people dying today wasn't sothing that could be simply cleaned up.
But Lu Ding wasn't the kind of person who only cared about his own montary satisfaction, leaving behind a ss and walking away.
"No need, Director Huang. I won't be staying. We'll spend the night in Laicheng tonight. You should hurry up and process the materials first."
He was never one for empty boasts, only speaking truth.
Since they wanted to play this show of strength, this childish ga, then Lu Ding would just kill his way to their doorstep!!
He wanted to see what caliber they were, daring to make him wait, and even fucking read without replying!
If he went to Laicheng and found they hadn't arrived, it was just a simple case of read without reply—this was the simplest attitude problem. He'd reward them with a clean cut in half!
If they were there, then it was confird to be a show of strength, intentional. For that, Lu Ding could only say sorry, they wouldn't even be able to be pieced back together!
"You're going to Laicheng?!"
Huang Dong's voice was both puzzled and shocked: "But the people from Great Jing haven't co over to go through the procedures yet, right?"
"If you go to Laicheng now, that would be invading another nation's territory, then..."
Lu Ding raised his blade, pointing the tip at these people on the ground, sliced into even thicknesses: "Didn't they also co uninvited?"
"The enemy can go, so can I. Don't worry, Director Huang, I won't leave you with a ss. I know about your deeds and work attitude."
"Liangcheng is my last stop leaving Great Han, and the first stop setting off for Great Jing. For a good start, later, list for the nas of those troublemakers from Laicheng. I'll help you deal with them along the way."
Huang Dong, having received Lu Ding's recognition, was happy, but thinking about Lu Ding going directly to Laicheng made him very worried.
Too exaggerated.
The relationship between Great Han and Great Jing, not to say extrely tense, definitely didn't have much room for easing.
These people coming, they only represented themselves.
If Huang Dong wasn't receiving Lu Ding today, he wouldn't have been so polite to these people either.
It was really because taking action would waste even more ti, so he hadn't acted.
But Lu Ding was different.
As a special envoy, he represented Great Han...
Directly pressing into another nation's territory...
"Special Envoy Lu, how about we still go through the procedures and formalities? Maybe you rest a bit, have a al, I'll send soone to ask for you, have them co over for the handover, and after it's done, you can then..."
"Alright, Director Huang, no need to say more. I understand what you an, but I've already given them a chance. Since they didn't co at the first mont, then going over is the sa."
Lu Ding said this calmly.
But Huang Dong didn't hear it that way.
There were many things he wanted to say but didn't dare.
'With an entrance like yours, is it really the sa if you go over...'
Coming uninvited, pressing into another nation's territory, is one definition.
Coming uninvited, pressing into another nation's territory and killing, is another definition.
Huang Dong basically guessed Lu Ding's thoughts, but it wasn't perfect enough, not severe enough.
It should be: coming uninvited, pressing into another nation's territory and killing, and also cutting up their liaison envoy into minceat along the way!

Have to go out unexpectedly today, so will continue with extra updates tomorrow, my darlings.
