Chapter 254: Entering the Capital (2)

“What’s his name?” Wang Jiuyan immediately asked.

A first-rate expert was nothing in the capital. After all, many talents in the world came to the capital, and many cosmic citizen players were among them.

There were indeed many who had reached first-rate. However, going beyond first-rate was very rare.

“His name is Jingming, and he’s from Lanyue City,” Fei Qing replied.

Wang Jiuyan nodded. “Got it.”

******

In the afternoon, the massive Blood Rain Guard team arrived in the capital.

“This is the capital?” Xu Jingming, Qiu Tong, and the others watched in surprise.?What a magnificent city!

The city walls were 200 feet tall—looking up was like looking at a mountain! The city walls extended to the end of their vision.

This was the capital, the largest city in Blood Rain World! Gold and silver amassed here, along with experts.

Imperial Capital, here I come.?Xu Jingming’s blood boiled.

There was a higher chance of earning 10,000 gold in the capital! He was quite lucky to have successfully protected the Fei family’s father and daughter to the capital and successfully cozied up to Commander-in-chief Fei.

If Xu Jingming had died in battle as a guard… then this identity of his would be gone.

If the Fei family’s father and daughter were killed or abducted, not only would he not be rewarded, but he would even be considered guilty!

Therefore, Xu Jingming had to marvel at his luck in safely getting the Fei family’s father and daughter to the capital.

“Move, move.”

“Make way.”

The guards at the south gate of the capital immediately cleared the crowded city gates and allowed the mighty Blood Rain Guard team to enter.

“Sir.” When the city gate guards saw Wang Jiuyan, they kneeled on one knee and were extremely respectful.

Although Fei Qing was one level higher than Wang Jiuyan in terms of official rank, Fei Qing was the commander-in-chief of the empire’s eastern region and an official from another city! As for Wang Jiuyan, he was one of the capital’s four wing envoys, the envoy of South Wing. He directly governed countless citizens in the southern end of the city, so how could the guards watching the southern gates dare slight him?

“I heard that there are all kinds of people in the capital and that there are many experts.” Qiu Tong rode her horse and looked around. She then said to Xu Jingming, “As for the Blood Rain Guards of the capital’s four prefectures, they suppress all parties and maintain order in the capital. They wield a lot of power, and they are divided into four prefectures because there would be too much power. Lord Wang… is the envoy of the capital’s south wing! He’s definitely an impressive figure in the capital.”

Xu Jingming nodded.

Fei Qing rode alongside Wang Jiuyan, so it was obvious that their ranks were close.

“There are many experts in the capital. We are nothing here.” Xu Jingming swept his gaze and sensed the terrifying aura hidden in this massive city.

It was a natural aura formed by the gathering of many top experts’ mental strength! In this city, first-rate experts had to be careful.

“It’s the capital after all!” Qiu Tong’s eyes burned. “A person should come to a place with the most experts in the world once in their life and explore it! Even if one dies, it wouldn’t be in vain!”

Xu Jingming looked at Qiu Tong.?Right.

To the natives, the capital was even more special. Although most of the natives had always heard of the legends regarding the capital, very few could visit the capital in their lives.

…

Huh??In a large residence in the capital, there was a pavilion above some rockery. “”One could see very far into the distance from the pavilion, and a beautiful woman in purple was sitting in the pavilion reading a book. She suddenly sensed something and looked up into the distance.

With her cellular-level control, her eyesight was excellent. She could clearly see the Blood Rain Guard team on the street in the distance.

Her gaze locked onto Wang Jiuyan at a glance.

Wang Jiuyan sensed it and turned his head.

Their gazes met across a kilometer.

“Lord Wang.” The purple-dressed woman smiled.

Wang Jiuyan looked at her calmly and ignored her. He continued riding his horse forward.

Whoosh!

A figure appeared out of thin air in the pavilion—it was an old woman.

“Investigate what our Lord Wang and Commander-in-chief Fei did outside the city,” the purple-shirted woman instructed.

“Yes, Madam,” the old woman replied and silently disappeared.

The purple-dressed woman glanced at the book in her hand and frowned slightly, but she had a soul-stirring charm. She whispered, “Wang Jiuyan, oh Wang Jiuyan, you’re really a blockhead. If you had married me, I would’ve done my best to help you. You would’ve risen to prominence a long time ago. Why did you despise me?”

She had only taken a fancy to Wang Jiuyan after all these years.

******

At King Qi’s residence.

“Wang Jiuyan led the Blood Rain Guard experts, and each person rode three horses at full speed. He finally arrived at the critical moment and scared off the Black Lotus Sect’s Night Dharmaraja. The Fei father and daughter survived,” a subordinate reported respectfully.

King Qi sat there and fed his beloved concubine with a smile.

“Right, drink it.” King Qi smiled as he watched everything. A small amount of alcohol was spilled onto his concubine’s chest.

King Qi lowered his head and licked it clean before looking up at his subordinate. “It’s Wang Jiuyan again? He has ruined so many of my plans! I’ve treated him well and attempted to befriend him time and time again because he’s a talent, but he ignored me and even spoiled my plans!”

“Your Highness, should we make him suffer?” the subordinate asked with a glint in his eyes.

“I’m listening.” King Qi was curious. “How are you going to make Wang Jiuyan suffer? I’m very curious. When did you become so capable?”

The subordinate smiled awkwardly and obsequiously. “Of course, I’m not capable. But as long as Your Highness wants him to suffer, you can definitely do so.”

“I don’t have what it takes.” King Qi shook his head. “Wang Jiuyan is different from Fei Qing! Wang Jiuyan has deeply rooted himself in the capital. Him becoming a super expert isn’t the most important thing. Most importantly… the faction he’s hiding is very strong. Be it Courtesan Belle Palace or Bloodcloth Tower, many of the factions hiding in the capital seem to be crazy. They all stand on Wang Jiuyan’s side. Of the four wing envoys in the capital, he’s the hardest to deal with.”

“On the surface, he has the south wing’s Blood Rain Guards under his command, but there are also hidden factions. Why can’t Wang Jiuyan just work with me? Isn’t it good if we were all friends?” King Qi had been eyeing Wang Jiuyan for a long time.

His subordinate didn’t dare say a word.

“It’s fine if the Fei father and daughter survive. After all, the ones who died were Fei Qing and the Black Lotus Sect’s men. I didn’t lose anything.” King Qi smiled and waved his hand before continuing to coax his concubine. “Baby, let’s continue drinking.”

The subordinate immediately retreated obediently.

…

Fei Mansion.

In the capital, the Fei residence was considered a relatively ordinary residence for an official, but it easily accommodated more than 100 guards and dozens of maids and servants. Xu Jingming, Qiu Tong, and Luo Baichuan also temporarily stayed in the Fei residence.

“Thank you, my lord,” Qiu Tong said gratefully.

“You’re Xinlan’s senior sister, and Xinlan has repeatedly asked me to take care of you. If you want to thank someone, thank Xinlan.” Fei Qing smiled and nodded.

Qiu Tong nodded, clearly a little excited.

“Go, make preparations. Be ready to take office in three days,” Fei Qing said.

“I’ll take my leave, sir.” Qiu Tong identified herself as a subordinate and walked out of the pavilion.

Xu Jingming also walked over from afar. Qiu Tong winked at him with an unconcealable smile, which made Xu Jingming understand.?It looks like it’s a good thing.

In the pavilion.

Fei Qing sat there and observed Xu Jingming walking over.

This person’s strength improved rapidly, but his past experiences are very vague. A village outside the city can groom a second-rate expert??Fei Qing thought to himself.?If it weren’t for the fact that it was my sister who summoned him as a guard, I would’ve suspected… that the enemy had planted him.

As a cosmic citizen player, the world’s targeting of Xu Jingming would become stronger as his status increased. Of course, his current status remained very ordinary; he was only a guard.

“Greetings, Lord Fei.” Xu Jingming bowed.

“I’m aware of the contributions you’ve made during the escort.” Fei Qing looked at Xu Jingming and nodded. “My sister repeatedly exhorted me not to mistreat you. I’ll give you two choices—one is to be a guard at the palace! The imperial guards are in charge of perpetually protecting His Majesty, the princes, and princesses. There’s a bright future in this. The day His Majesty takes a fancy to you, you will soar. Of course, you can only work as an ordinary guard in the beginning.”

“The other path is to join the Blood Rain Guard! I have quite a wide network in the Blood Rain Guard. You will be made a captain upon entry,” Fei Qing continued. “I promise you that as long as you contribute enough, you can be promoted to centurion. This is also the limit of what I can do.”

“The Blood Rain Guard in the capital is different from the ones in the various local cities. The recruitment requirements are very harsh! A centurion is very rare, and it’s of a higher grade than the Blood Rain Guard commanders in cities. A principales… requires His Majesty’s approval,” Fei Qing said. “Choose one of these two paths.”

As a cosmic citizen player, Xu Jingming had long gathered information on Blood Rain World and had a rough understanding of the situation in the capital.

His choice… was naturally the one that allowed him to obtain 10,000 gold more quickly.

“Thank you, my lord,” Xu Jingming said respectfully. “I’m willing to be a Blood Rain Guard captain.”
