Feng Xingtian had been captured for a day. At night, Huo Wu unexpectedly received the news that Long Qingying wanted to see her.
Huo Wu quickly put on her clothes and rushed to Long Qingying's General Mansion.
"Subordinate greets Long Shuai!" After entering Long Qingying's room, Huo Wu saluted respectfully.
"Xiao Wu, why are you still so polite?”Long Qingying turned around. Her casual clothes couldn't hide her dazzling light.
Even though they were both women, Huo Wu's eyes still lit up. Moreover, from their tone, the two of them seemed quite familiar.
" Long Shuai…" Huo Wu knew that it might be because of yesterday's matter.
"Have you forgotten what we said? I still have to call you sister in private. Take a look at this.”Long Qingying asked Huo Wu to sit down, then picked up a newspaper from the table.
"A scandal! The soldiers of the Clear Shadow Legion fought over a hotel!”A thick headline occupied the front page of the news. Huo Wu read on, and the content implied that Feng Xingtian and Long Qingying had become the main characters. It even revealed that Feng Xingtian was the main character of the " robbery " incident.
" Long…Qing Ying…" Fire Dance was speechless. She had not expected the news to spread so quickly.
"This fellow really knows how to cause trouble." Long Qingying said with a smile.
"I'm…I'm sorry."
"Idiot." Long Qingying grabbed Huo Wu's hand and said," I really don't understand what those guys are thinking all day long. As soon as there's no war, there'll be more problems. Xiao Wu, does he treat you well?"”
"We…we're fine.”Huo Wu lowered her head.
"I need to know the truth about that night. Is it true that he made the first move?”
"No, he didn't do anything." Huo Wu raised her head, but when she met Long Qingying's half-smiling eyes, she lowered her head again and told her everything that had happened.
"Hehe, it's okay. He'll be out soon. Don't worry.”Long Qingying closed her eyes for a while, then opened them again.
"Who's worried about him!" Huo Wu blushed.
"Really?" Long Qingying said with a smile.
"We, we really didn't do anything. It was all that guy's wishful thinking.”This time, Huo Wu did not lie. She was certain that Feng Xingtian did not touch her last night.
"Other than being a little vulgar and arrogant, he's a good man.”Long Qingying believed in her own judgment. Feng Xingtian had broken into the Mist Mountain alone for Snowy, which showed that he was a responsible man, and that he was the best gift for a woman.
"Him? Other than narcissism, idiocy, and boredom, what else was good about it?”Huo Wu quickly argued, but she discovered that she had spoken too hastily.
"Let's not talk about him. Let's talk about you. Xiao Wu, you're already twenty-six, right? It's time to find a man.”
"Yeah, I'll be twenty-seven soon.”Fire Dance sighed.
Since she met Long Qingying ten years ago, she had been following her loyally in all the battles. She started as a servant girl and worked her way up to this position. Long Qingying had noticed her talent and wanted to promote her, but she had to stay in this position for various reasons.
"This is his information." Long Qingying handed him another piece of paper. The intelligence system of the Clear Shadow Legion was not just for show.
" Feng Xingtian, 23 years old, born in a small town on the northern border. Orphan, data unknown before 18 years old, wandering the continent after that, possibly related to 21 cases, no evidence, forthright character, no warrior title, but estimated to have reached Bronze Warrior level.”
Fire Dance was slightly surprised when she saw that the rest of the data was blank.
"This person is very interesting, but we can trust him.”Long Qingying said softly.
" Qing Ying, we…" Huo Wu understood what she meant. This was done for her.
"At the end of the day, we're just women. Xiao Wu, do you know why I never lifted you up? Of course, it wasn't about the education regulations or special times. There were many cavalry commanders who didn't know how to read. With your personality, you were only suitable for the lowest and highest positions. However, in the lower positions, you could be completely protected.”
"Wu 'er knows." Although she was a few years older than Long Qingying, Huo Wu had always treated her as her sister.
Long Qingying was more mature than any other woman at the same age. She had been a rising star since she was twelve years old. She was active in politics and military affairs. As her best friend, Huo Wu knew a little about her. It wasn't strange that Long Qingying, who had half dragon blood, had achieved such a glorious achievement.
"The higher-ups aren't stable either. Look, such a small matter has caused such a commotion. There are also some people in the army who want to cause trouble.”Long Qingying sighed.
The conversation was confidential. Huo Wu was Long Qingying's best friend, so she only told her that.
"Could it be?" There was a reason why Long Qingying trusted Huo Wu so much.
"The Beastmen have been mobilizing quite frequently in the past few months. You know them. The reserve army is actually a regular army. All the people are soldiers.”Long Qingying felt a bit tired. It had been less than three years since the sixth armistice was signed.
"We are also preparing for battle." Fire Dance's entire body burst forth with power.
" The situation this time is very abnormal. I can't say much about the specifics. Including this period, our reserve army has reached 20,000, and the entire army has only 60,000 combat personnel. If the Orcs move out, we will definitely be fighting together again. There might be a problem with the command of the central army.”
"They want to command the army?" Fire Dance said in disbelief.
" We've won five out of six battles against the Orcs. The higher-ups have given up on their fear of the Orcs. They think that with their superior forces gathered, the Orcs will be like a plate of loose sand. So, I don't think it's a problem of victory this time, but a problem after victory.”
"I understand." Fire Dance said solemnly.
It was a soldier's duty to obey orders. Political affairs shouldn't have anything to do with soldiers. Even someone as powerful as Long Qingying would be confused about it.
"Sigh, neither is it a dictatorship. Forget it, let's not talk about it. Let's talk about you!”Long Qingying changed the topic.
"I'm really fine. If he can show me a side that can subdue me, I'm willing to be conquered by him.”After pondering for a moment, Fire Dance spoke the truth.
"Hehe, I believe he will. Alright, sleep here tonight. We haven't spoken together in a long time.”Long Qingying held her hand intimately.
Feng Xingtian, who was brought to the prison, was not so lucky. In other people's territory, no matter how strong he was, he would still suffer in the end.
The prison of the Law Enforcement Department was known as a " hell on earth " in the empire. Although people had launched several vigorous human rights protection campaigns and declared that prisoners also had human rights, they had only made a fuss on the surface since then. Who would really go against the country for the sake of the most heinous criminals?
Feng Xingtian had just been brought in by two people when he suddenly received a hard blow on the back of his head.
When he woke up, his entire body was chained up. He opened his eyes and found Liang Cheng standing in front of him.
"Feng Xingtian, don't be so f * cking arrogant!”Liang Cheng kicked Feng Xingtian in the stomach.
"Liang Cheng, oh Liang Cheng, you will never achieve anything great.”Feng Xingtian suppressed his laughter and said.
"Let's worry about whether you can get out of here alive!”Liang Cheng laughed sinisterly.
"Then you have to be concerned about whether you still have a chance to live after I get out of here alive.”Feng Xingtian maintained his smile.
"Sure." Liang Cheng turned his head around and suddenly turned around. A special rod appeared in his hand and he smashed it at Feng Xingtian. This was the special interrogation weapon of the law enforcement team. When it hit the body, it would only hurt the internal organs and not the appearance.
Liang Cheng also understood that the person might have to be released, but he couldn't have too obvious external injuries. The law enforcement team had many tools that could beat a person until he was half-dead and make it impossible for others to catch him.
"F * ck, Liang Cheng, I don't have any deep hatred for you. At most, I just pinched your neck.”Feng Xingtian was heavily injured.
"Yes, we don't have any deep hatred for each other, but you know, I was just about to be promoted a few days ago when you popped out and embarrassed me. The law enforcement team was laughed at by everyone, so how could I be promoted!”Liang Cheng roared and moved closer to Feng Xingtian." However, this is a small matter. What's important is that you shouldn't, shouldn't have provoked someone you shouldn't have. It's not me who's risking my life, it's them who's risking their lives.”
"Senjie, right? I told you a long time ago that he had a bright future ahead of him. I was right about him. Hehe, Liang Cheng, it's okay.”Feng Xingtian said magnanimously.
"I want you to understand!" Liang Cheng was stunned for a moment. He suddenly realized that he could not be softened by his words. He was so angry that he gave Feng Xingtian another hard blow.
"Liang Cheng, I'm now certain that although you won't be able to achieve anything great, you still have a bright future ahead of you.”Fengxing Tianqiang raised his head.
Liang Cheng did not understand. When he heard Feng Xingtian say that he had a bright future, he went crazy and vented all his dissatisfaction on Feng Xingtian. Soon, blood began to flow from the corner of Feng Xingtian's mouth, but the smile on his face never stopped.
"Feng Xingtian, are you even human?”Liang Cheng was tired of fighting. He hated seeing Feng Xingtian laugh.
"You'll know if you want to try it with your wife.”Feng Xingtian did not forget to joke.
However, Liang Cheng no longer had the energy to continue fighting. He took out a document.
"Feng Xingtian, listen carefully. In the year 701 of the Empire Calendar, you were suspected of killing the mayor of Karst Town and disappeared. Empire Calendar Year 702, you are suspected of gathering the Mountain Thieves of Immortal Cry Mountain to commit a robbery. Empire Calendar Year 703, you are suspected of raping a number of women in South County Province…"
Liang Cheng read more than 20 suspected crimes in one go. Some were serious, some were light, but each one was enough for Feng Xingtian to stay in prison for the rest of his life.
"Feng Xingtian, don't think that you did it without anyone knowing. Let me tell you, the law enforcement department has already re-investigated the evidence of your past crimes. Just wait for Huo Wu to come and collect your corpse!”Liang Cheng said proudly.
"Alright, I'll wait." Feng Xingtian was expressionless.
After being tortured for half a day, all sorts of torture methods were used, but Feng Xingtian could not do anything. In the end, Liang Cheng could only temporarily put him in prison.
Prisons were also divided into levels. There were high-level prisons, which were more luxurious than the rooms for ordinary people. However, Feng Xingtian clearly did not have such luck. He could not even live in the lowest level. This place was at most a pig's nest, like the prison where the Empire imprisoned prisoners on death row.
When Feng Xingtian was thrown in, the place became somewhat lively. In the darkness, Feng Xingtian could vaguely see more than ten people.
There were strong and weak people in every place. In a place like prison, the strong preyed on the weak. Feng Xingtian had just sat down when he was surrounded by five to six people.
"Brother, how did you get it in here?" A bald man in his forties squatted down and asked.
"Fighting, killing, robbing, raping, fighting for women.”Feng Xingtian might as well lie down. It was more comfortable this way.
"Hey, can't you tell that you're a prick?”The bald man patted Feng Xingtian's face.
All of a sudden, Fengxing Tian moved like lightning and twisted the bald man's wrist. He did not stop. With a crack, the bald man's wrist changed shape.
Feng Xingtian did not even give him a chance to scream. He sat up again and grabbed the bald man's neck with one hand, making him unable to make a sound.
"I forgot to tell you that I'm very tired now. Big Brother, can you give me some rest?”Feng Xingtian said gently.
The bald man could only wave his hand. This move stunned his lackeys beside him, and everyone consciously dispersed.
Feng Xingtian let go of his hand, and the bald man also squatted at the side, hugging his wrist. Just as he turned his head to signal to his underlings, another crack sounded. His other wrist was also broken.
"I'm sorry, I'm a coward. Big brother, don't scare me.”
Feng Xingtian's smile was like a devil's, at least in the bald man's eyes.
"I'm Feng Xingtian, may I know your surname?”Feng Xingtian pulled at his hand, scaring the man into retreating.
"Si Luo." The bald man had just answered when he subconsciously felt a crack. A sharp pain immediately swallowed him. When he regained consciousness, Feng Xingtian had already reconnected his bones.
"Big brother Si Luo, this little brother is sleeping now. Can you help me keep a lookout?”Feng Xingtian asked.
"Alright, alright. Brother, go ahead and sleep." Si Luo could only nod his head. The strong were king. This was an unchanging truth.
"Hehe, young people have a bright future." An old voice sounded.
Hearing this, Feng Xingtian perked up. Wasn't this a pirated version of him?
Feng Xingtian walked towards the darkness where the voice came from. It was a corner, and the people around him did not dare to approach it as if they were avoiding the god of plague.
As he approached, Feng Xingtian saw a very ordinary old man. He was curled up in a corner, looking at him with lifeless eyes.
"Uncle, where did you learn this?”
The prisoners beside him fainted. They never thought that Feng Xingtian's first question would be this.
"I created it myself!" the old man said proudly.
"Good, you have a bright future. I like it.”Feng Xingtian sat down beside him. He noticed that the old man's legs were very small.
"Young man, you are very much like an old man.”The old man chuckled.
"You're quite right about my temper." Feng Xingtian started to become curious about this old man.
"Ask them who dares to call themselves father in front of me.”
Feng Xingtian turned his head to look at them, but what he saw was a head shaking rapidly.
"Then I won't call you either. Uncle, how should I call you?”Feng Xingtian changed his mind quite quickly.
"Have you heard of the continent's King of Mercenaries, Batian?”The old man looked at Feng Xingtian.
"Yes, but don't tell me you're him.”
"Then let me tell you, I killed him.”
"F * ck, uncle, I just said I'm timid.”Feng Xingtian was secretly shocked.
" King of Mercenaries " Batian was a legendary figure. It was said that his ability had reached the level of Sword God and War God. He was the revered swordsman and warrior.
"Uncle, I heard that the main characters in legendary novels will meet a super powerful expert. Could it be that you are one of them?”
"F * ck, am I that vulgar?" The old man was very angry. He said mysteriously," Let me tell you. I'm not an expert. My standard is at most at the upper stage of a Silver Warrior."”
"Then how did you do it?" Feng Xingtian was very curious. He also wanted to understand why these people looked so afraid of this old man.
"I did something behind his back. I just stabbed him with that dagger and everything was settled.”After the old man finished speaking, he looked at Feng Xingtian in a relaxed manner.
"Awesome!" Feng Xingtian gave him a thumbs up. He was not a gentleman to begin with.
Now that the two of them were on the same page, the old man simply opened his mouth and talked about his glorious history, attracting the attention of the people around him. They had never had the fortune to listen to this. Other than being respectful to him, they avoided him.
The more Feng Xingtian listened, the more excited he became. This old man was not an ordinary person. He was black-hearted and black-handed, a formidable figure of his generation.
"Old man, I understand now. I have nothing to say. Back then, there was no other candidate for the King of Thieves, Luo Tu, except for you.”Feng Xingtian had already sat intimately beside the old man.
"How did you know?" The old man was very surprised that no one knew his identity for decades.
"As for the reason, hehe, let me tell you.”Feng Xingtian moved closer to the old man." You've been here for a long time, haven't you? Every village now has a statue of you!”
Of course, Feng Xingtian did not tell the truth. However, this sentence had clearly conquered the old man. It was obvious that he was not just happy.
"Let me tell you something else. Those in our line of work are all your disciples. Who doesn't admire you when you wreaked havoc in the Wind Capital for eighty days? In the end, didn't the Imperium mobilize fifty thousand law enforcement squads, ten thousand Holy Knights, and all the experts in the world to invite you to this place?”Feng Xingtian continued to whisper.
This was a half-truth and half-lie. The King of Thieves was also added to him by Feng Xingtian at the last minute. However, he was indeed powerful back then and caused a huge commotion in the Imperial City.
