Sword Emperor of the Astonishing Sky

On the streets of the imperial capital, there was a constant flow of people.

Lin Bai saw many warriors wearing black official uniforms, with ferocious faces, holding swords on their waists, patrolling the streets.

Official notices of sea arrests have been posted on the streets and alleys.

Apparently, a big thief came to the imperial capital and caused quite a stir.

Especially in a country like Chu State, where the law is supreme, someone is making trouble in the imperial city with a low eye, obviously provoking the Zhaoxing Division, and the Zhaoxing Division will naturally not let it go.

Zhaoxing Division, the headquarters of the Imperial Capital.

Within the Zhaoxing Division, there are nine heads, all of whom occupy the first rank of the current dynasty.

Under the nine heads, there are thirty-six commanders, who lead different departments and have different responsibilities.

At this moment, in the official office of the Zhaoxing Division headquarters, Du Nong, who was in his sixties, frowned deeply as he looked at the documents that were delivered today, and he was so worried that he could hardly eat.

Du Nong, one of the commanders of the Zhaoxing Division Headquarters, holds a high position and has extraordinary cultivation. He is also at the peak of Taiyi Daoguo.

He is responsible for the security prevention and control inside and outside the imperial capital, and the warriors of the Zhaoxing Division in the imperial capital must be mobilized by him.

The thing that caused him the most headache started a month ago.

A month ago, a big thief came from nowhere and started causing trouble in the imperial capital.

First, a small chamber of commerce, the "Chuanhe Chamber of Commerce", was vacated overnight.

Then he took away a large amount of treasures from the treasure house of the "Long Family" in the imperial capital.

Immediately afterwards, in the past few days, news came that Ziwei Chamber of Commerce, Galaxy Chamber of Commerce, Jiutian Chamber of Commerce and other large chambers of commerce in the imperial capital had been stolen.

Documents were delivered to his case one after another, making him frown.

The Zhaoxing Division did not take action. After receiving the report, the Zhaoxing Division immediately mobilized manpower and began to explore the origin of the thief.

But this big thief came and went without a trace. The Zhaoxing Division encircled and suppressed him several times without even scratching his skin.

To this day, Zhao Xingsi still doesn’t know whether the thief is a man or a woman.

According to legends inside and outside the imperial capital, it is said to be "a demon clan", but the Shoxing Division has found no clear evidence to prove it.

"Master Commander, the Third Prince has sent someone to deliver a message."

At the entrance of the palace, a martial artist from the Zhaoxing Division walked quickly and spoke.

"Please quickly." Dunong hurriedly walked out from behind the case.

Not long after, a young servant quickly walked into the palace, saluted Du Nong and said, "I have seen the Commander-in-Chief. I have been ordered by the Third Prince to pass a message to the Commander-in-Chief."

Dunong said: "What are your orders from His Highness the Third Prince?"

The slave said: "Please command your Excellency to solve the case within five days and quell the resentment of the people of the imperial capital."

Du Nong's face darkened. How easy was it to solve the case in five days?

"I obey." But Dunong didn't dare to refuse, so he nodded in agreement.

"In that case, I'll take my leave, little slave."

After the slave delivered the letter, he left quickly.

The warrior following Du Nong then asked: "Sir, the imperial capital is so crowded and we have no news. How can we solve the case within five days?"

Dunong took a deep breath and said, "I have no choice but to bite the bullet."

"There are rumors in the imperial city that he is a demon clan, isn't it?"

"Then let's start with the demon clan. Anyway, there are only so many demon clans in the imperial capital. A demon clan with such great ability must not be an ordinary person."

"Send an order to investigate the demon clan in the city. If any suspicious warriors are found, bring them back to the Zhaoxing Division immediately!"

The warrior took the order and hurried out to deliver the order.

The Zhaoxing Division was dispatched, and the whole imperial capital was in turmoil, and everyone was in danger.

Especially the demon clan who made a living in the imperial capital were completely destroyed.

…

Lin Bai had no intention of hanging around anymore and hurried back to Zhengrong Jiange.

When I came back, I saw a crow standing on the branch, with a bird's face full of joy and smile.

"Lin Bai, are you back?"

Crow shouted with a smile.

Lin Bai's face darkened, he looked up at Crow, and asked sharply: "Did you do it?"

Crow was stunned and asked, "What do you mean?"

Lin Bai said: "When I walked out today, I heard rumors spreading in the streets and alleys of the Imperial Capital, saying that there was a thief in the Imperial Capital who had never seen the beginning. In just one month, he continuously ransacked dozens of chambers of commerce treasure houses inside and outside the Imperial Capital. In one night, In the meantime, the treasure house was emptied, not even a hair was left behind.”

"Didn't you do it?"

Crow smiled stupidly: "I just went in and took a look around. What treasures are there in their treasure house? Give them to me, but I don't want them."

Lin Bai said coldly: "It's really not you?"

Crow was determined, shook his head repeatedly and said: "No, no."

Lin Bai rolled his eyes and sighed: "Hey, I thought it was you? I was planning to join forces with you to do something big. Since it's not you, let's forget it."

Crow's eyebrows were filled with joy and his eyes were shining: "Really? Did you take a look at that family's treasure? We'll go there tonight."

Lin Bai looked cold and stared at the crow.

Crow was stunned for a moment, then he realized: "Blow me up!"

Lin Bai walked to the stone table angrily, sat down, and asked, "How many houses have you stolen?"

When Crow saw that Lin Bai had found out, he immediately stopped pretending. He lowered his head and counted the paws of his three toes, and said slowly: "Chuanhe Chamber of Commerce, Ziwei Chamber of Commerce, Galaxy Chamber of Commerce, Jiutian Chamber of Commerce...and the Long Family, Chen Family, Zhao Family, etc." Family, Qian family, Sun family, Li family..."

"Eighteen in total."

"The only thing I haven't been to now is the palace."

"If you are interested, you can join forces with me and we will split the treasure 50/50."

Crow said to Lin Bai extremely openly, inviting Lin Bai to join forces.

Lin Bai was stunned. He didn't expect that in this month, Crow had done so many things and emptied the treasure troves of eighteen forces.

etc!

Lin Bai suddenly thought of something.

Chen family?

That Chen family?

Lin Bai hurriedly asked: "The Chen family you just mentioned? Which Chen family is it?"

Crow said: "It's the Chen family who was defeated by your sword on the bank of Baoyue River."

There are five families and seven sects in Chu State, and the five families are: Chen family, Long family, Zhao family, Sun family and Chu family.

The Chu family is the royal family of Chu State.

Lin Bai calculated carefully and found that apart from the royal family, Crow had actually been to all the other four major families in the Chu Kingdom.

However, Lin Bai's expression changed slightly and asked, "Why didn't you hear that the five major families went to report the crime?"

Crow curled his lips and said, "You don't have that face."

Lin Bai asked: "What do you mean?"

Crow laughed and said: "Just think about it, the five most prosperous families in the Chu Kingdom actually had their treasure troves emptied overnight. If they went to the Zhaoxing Division to report the case openly, wouldn't it mean that the five largest families in the Chu Kingdom were not even guarding the house? Don’t the treasures have any abilities?”

"If they report the crime, they will only make the Chu warriors laugh at them for their incompetence."

Lin Bai glared at Crow and said, "You still dare to laugh. Do you know how much trouble you have caused?"

"The five major families dare not report the crime, which means they will come to you on their own. Once they find you, what do you think your fate will be?"
