Chapter 132: The clouds disperse and the rain stops
- March 10, 2018
How could Ye Da Chuan refuse to do so? He couldn't help but agree! Taking Li Qing Shan's hand, he said: "You are my lucky star! No, my benefactor!", while remembering that Li Qing Shan had a completely different identity as of now.
Li Qing Shan said: "How about Protector Yan and the rest of them?"
Ye Da Chuan said: “They returned to the Iron Fist Gate to rest. Jia Ping’s City Iron Fist Gate mentioned that they would come to visit you at night. I did not expect to be the one that met you first instead.”
More than a dozen elite soldiers came behind Li Qing Shan: "Lord Li!"
Li Qing Shan laughed: "This is your Lord Ye!"
"Lord Ye!"
Standing in front of the pavilion, Ye Da Chuan was thrilled. On the first day of arriving in Jia Ping City, he was visiting the largest and most luxurious brothel?
Li Qing Shan said: " Lord Ye, do not forget, today we are looking for trouble."
Ye Da Chuan said: "I can't forget, I can't forget! Squeezing them of their money is the business we are here for!" He then righteously ordered: "Rush in and clean up this lewd place!"
"Nuo!" A crowd of elite soldiers rushed in like wolves, shocking the group of people in the pavilion. When the guards came out and saw Li Qing Shan, their “unlucky star”, who dared to go up ahead!
Ye Da Chuan feigned his authority as he condescendingly asked: "Where’s your boss? Huh?"
A girl worriedly replied, "We also don't know!"
Ye Da Chuan: "Search all of them for me!"
Li Qing Shan stood by and watched the soldiers as they turned the building inside out. He then whispered in Ye Da Chuan's ear: “It seems that the ones involved have already run away. Will there be any hidden treasure storage just like in the Black Wind Valleys?"
When the treasure storage was mentioned, Ye Da Chuan’s eyes lighted up at once. “Search for their basements!” With a keen intuition for money, without waiting for Li Qing Shan’s reminder, he found the switch a moment later and opened the door to the underground palace.
Ye Da Chuan looked at the black hole-like entrance of the underground palace and felt partially afraid. However, he could not hold back his desire for treasure. He first ordered the soldiers to enter, before dragging Li Qing Shan to come along with him.

Sure enough, they quickly found the detained women, clear proof of the pavilion’s crimes. However, Zhao Liang Qing and Fu Rong had disappeared, clearly fleeing from their crimes.
Ye Da Chuan did not disappoint. Although Li Qing Shan took the treasure pouch, there were still many gold and silver accessories in the underground palace. Such jewellery were also quite a fortune.
"Congratulations to Lord Ye! You just arrived in Jia Ping City and made such a great contribution!" Li Qing Shan smiled and looked up at the statue of the Angelic Woman at the roof, before he casually tossed his Wind Severing Knife, scraping against the nose of one of the pavilion’s guard before it stuck to the door.
"As long as we don’t clarify things today, no one is allowed to leave. Or else, they’ll be executed without mercy" Zhao Liang Qing certainly would not personally commit himself to matters like kidnapping women. All the guard in the pavilion definitely had a hand in these matters.
"What, Zhao Liang Qing is gone?" Zhuo Zhi Bo got up and looked at Ge Jian who had come to report.
Ge Jian said: "Yes, today Li Qing Shan took out several accounting books and asked for a permit from Zhou Wen Bin before he brought soldiers to the pavilion. As a result, not only did they not find Zhao Liang Qing and Fu Rong, they also found those women who were kidnapped in the underground palace. After being questioned by Zhou Wen Bin, Zhao Liang Qing has been judged as guilty. Zhou Wen Bin has also issued a wanted poster for Zhao Liang Qing and has seized all property under the pavilion for investigation.
Zhuo Zhi Bo slowly sat down. There was something weird about this matter. As long as Zhao Liang Qing stays put, there would always be a time when he could rise up again, and no one would be able to catch any evidence of his crimes. Was it possible that he returned to his sect to report as well as discuss about future strategies, resulting in Li Qing Shan having the opportunity to take advantage of the weakness of the pavilion without him?
He did not understand and for a moment, he also suspected that Zhao Liang Qing was dead, but he immediately dismissed this idea. Who could kill Zhao Liang Qing? Zhao Liang Qing was already at the pinnacle of the 5th Level of Qi Refining and was just a step away from the 6th Level. The only people that were able to kill him in the entire Jia Ping City was Zhou Wen Bin and himself. However, Zhou Wen Bin would definitely not take such a risk to become enemies with the pavilion.
Unless it was Li Qing Shan, then he would dare to take such daring actions. But even if one kept thinking about it, Li Qing Shan was only at the First Level of Qi Refining. He was not Zhao Liang Qing’s opponent of.
Qian Rong was deep in thought. Li Qing Shan was simple a catastrophe in disguise. It was only last night that a trap was set for him in the pavilion and today, the pavilion collapsed.
Zhou Wen Bin also did not expect that him randomly sending someone to harass him would cause such a result. The pavilion was an empty shell of itself. Those women were crying as they recalled their experiences, exposing the barbaric actions of the pavilion, pointing towards many of the guards as the ones responsible, with Zhao Liang Qing and Fu Rong as the leader of the these criminal acts.
There was no need to report to the Clear River Prefecture. Zhou Wen Bin’s power in Jia Ping was almost on the level of princes. With a single order, more than a dozen heads were chopped, clean and swift. Dozens of people were sent down to the big prison, and wanted posters were sent out. Finally, he wrote a report to send up to the Clear River Prefecture, which allowed the higher ups to question their sect, “Your disciples dared to do these kinds of things, you should at least explain yourself.”
Since it was under the rule of the Great Xia Dynasty, this had to be subject to the jurisdiction of the law. Even at this time, even the sect could only excommunicate Zhao Liang Qing and the rest to clear them of any relations with them.
Zhou Wen Bin was very quick and sharp. He spent only one afternoon, causing Li Qing Shan to be nothing short of awe: “My lord has great means!”

Zhou Wen Bin cleared the surroundings and whispered: "You tell me honestly, is this your deed?"
Li Qing Shan said: "If I really had this strength then that would be great."
Zhou Wen Bin watched for a while and saw that Li Qing Shan had no discrepancies from the usual on his face. It was originally just a spark of a thought, but he felt that this matter was definitely related to Li Qing Shan. Patting his shoulder, he said “Well, your luck isn’t bad.”
At this time, Qian Rong and Diao Fei also came to the county to report to Zhou Wen Bin.
Qian Rong Zheng resumed her laughter: "Last night, you were awe-inspiring. You guys are truly bad. Since we came together, why didn’t you call me?"
Diao Fei began to understand the conflict between Li Qing Shan and Zhuo Zhi Bo, and he did not dare to offend Li Qing Shan nor did he dare to applaud him. He simply gave a perfunctory salute.
Li Qing Shan smiled, too lazy to deal with them. He said his goodbyes to Zhou Wen Bin and left with Ye Da Chuan by his side, dragging him to find Yan Song to celebrate with a drink.
Diao Fei cried behind him: "Qing Shan, wait."
Li Qing Shan turned his head and said: "What?"
Yu Fei actually felt a jump in his heart. This young boy actually made him faintly afraid. But after all, he had been through experiences of various troubles, so he took a deep breath, and immediately adjusted his emotions. He was not a trash that did not undergo actual combat like the madam. He did not believe that with his 3rd Level of Qi Refining that he would not be Li Qing Shan’s match if they actually fought.
"From tomorrow onwards, we will carry out the trial tasks together. Shall we sit down and discuss this evening?"
Li Qing Shan said: "We're together? Trial tasks?" He was not interested in being with the two.
Zhou Wen Bin explained: "This is the rule of the Eagle Wolf Guard. After joining the Eagle Wolf Guard, there are several trial missions to complete to be considered as truly qualified. Then, you will go to the Clear River Prefecture and meet with the two leaders. You are really only just getting started. There are very few people that get kicked out during the trials. Often, they just go through the procedures, but if you do not accept it, Zhuo Zhi Bo has reason to fire you."
Li Qing Shan understood that there were institutional rules within the system and stood firm and said, "Well, discussing it seems ok." He was curious about what kind of tasks Zhuo Zhi Bo would give them.
Routinely inquiring of their origin: "Ancient Wind City, Qian family." This kind of small would naturally not meet Zhou Wen Bin’s eyes, but when asking about the origin of Diao Fei, he was just a little surprised : "Qing Teng Shan? Your master is Qing Teng Shan?"
"Yes!"
"You joined the Eagle Wolf Guard. Did your master agree?" The reason why Zhou Wen Bin asked this question is because families and schools were different. Families were in cities, under the rule of the Dynasty, and they were generally willing to let their people join the court. The sects were mostly set in the mountains, and they have a set of rules. Most of them were not willing to let their disciples become imperial dogs.
Diao Fei's face became dark, and his eyes looked high up ahead.
Zhou Wen Bin no longer asked any more questions as he continued to write: "You can go!"
Out of the gates of the county, Ye Da Chuan said: “You are all young heroes of the Eagle Wolf Guard, and as the official Ye Da Chuan, who is the county magistrate of the county, I would like to invite you all to have a few drinks together?”
Qian Rong Zheng and Diao Fei both looked to Li Qing Shan and Li Qing Shan said: "Let's go!" The duo nodded.

The four walked on the street. Even in the evening, the streets are still crowded with people. However, when they saw that Li Qing Shan and the other two in their attire, they evaded them. Even those in horse carriages would stop and give way, not wanting to disturb them.
Li Qing Shan only now knew the prestige his Eagle Wolf Guard uniform had. He arrived at the restaurant that Ye Da Chuan and Yan Song agreed meet at and entered the upper floors. Yan Song and Li Long had already waited there to meet Li Qing Shan. Seeing that he arrived, they bothstood up: "Qing Shan, you arrived so quickly!"
Li Qing Shan made a brief introduction for both parties. Yan Song said: “Turns out they are all the disciples of prestigious sects. It is nice to meet you all.” However, he was faintly surprised. Amongst the three, Li Qing Shan had the weakest cultivation and the shallowest origin, yet it seemed that he was the leader amongst them and they had no qualms with that.
Diao Fei and Qian Rong Zheng said a few perfunctory lines. Based on their cultivation and identity, they did not need to take Yan Song too seriously.
After several cups of wine, Yan Song asked how Li Qing Shan’s “Xian Tian Qi Refining Scripture” went.
Li Qing Shan said: "I just arrived at the 3rd stage. If I want to break through to the 4th stage, I believe I will need more time."
Yan Song was taken aback. “Xian Tian Qi Refining Scripture” was more difficult the more one cultivated it. Li Qing Shan quickly comprehending the first stage and breaking through to the second was of no surprise to him. However, after not seeing him for only a few days, he had broken through to the 3rd stage already. This speed was indeed shocking: “Looking back, it only took you about 7 or 8 days. I thought that Qing Shan your cultivation speed was just normal. However, I can’t be more wrong.”
“What! Seven or eight days?” Diao Fei and Qian Rong Zhen were both shocked. They only just learned that Li Qing Shan’s official time since he began to refine qi was not even 10 days. He actually cultivataed the “Xian Tian Qi Refining Scripture” to the third stage, which was almost like a legendary cultivating genius.
Li Qing Shan smiled slightly and did not explain. Only the heavens knew how many Qi Condensation Pills he had eaten, and there was even a sacred ring left behind by a golden core expert for him to refine his true qi. If he had not achieved this level of result, then his innate qualities would surely be too trashy.
