After all, he was the county head. If he did not want to understand this kind of thing, he had to be forced to understand it.
It was said that Immortal cultivators who could ride on swords were at least at the Foundation Establishment stage!
Hiss!
Foundation Establishment?
The strongest Guest Minister in Qinghe County, Bi Xu, was only at the Qi Refinement realm!
A group of Immortal cultivators at least in the Foundation Establishment stage had come to Qinghe County?
What a joke!
Was it free of charge to be a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator? Were they everywhere?
“Immortal cultivators flew into Qinghe County on swords? And there was more than one? There were several of them? Are your eyes playing tricks on you? Did you treat meteors or fireflies as Immortal cultivators who rode on swords?”
“Or did you run into a ghost in the middle of the night?”
“How could there be so many cultivators who could fly on a flying sword in a place like Qinghe County… eh? Wait!”
As soon as the Zhixian said this, his eyes suddenly widened as if he remembered something.
“The Provincial Capital!”
These three words came out of his mouth.
So Many Foundation Establishment stage Immortal cultivators had all come to Qinghe County in one go. If they were not the demons of Sacred Heart Palace, then there were only two possibilities for their identities…
The first possibility was that deacons from certain sects had formed a group to come to Qinghe County. For the time being, it was unknown what their purpose was.
The second possibility was that the people from the Provincial Capital had finally arrived at this time!
“Where did they settle down?”
Zhixian could not be bothered with other matters. His tone became anxious. The people from the provincial capital were all important figures to him.
He had also heard that among the people who came, there was a major figure from the Imperial City.
Provincial Capital + Imperial City!
No matter which one it was, it was not something he, a small magistrate from Qinghe County, could afford to offend.
Facing the magistrate’s inquiry, the constable shook his head in a daze, “I… I don’t know either.”
He didn’t know? The magistrate was furious!
When the important figures from the Prefecture Capital and the Imperial City came to Qinghe County, as the magistrate, he should hurry up and welcome them. Only then would he be able to leave a good impression on them.
When that time came, even if those important figures asked him about his crimes, his punishment should be less severe.
He did not know if those important figures would be willing to accept some things.
How could they…
He could also bear the pain and take out his savings to pave a future for himself.
Just as his thoughts gradually drifted away.
In a trance, he and the constable who ran over to inform him seemed to have heard a series of sharp whistling sounds, causing the two of them to instantly wake up. They hurriedly ran outside and looked in the direction where the sound came from.
They saw figures riding on swords descending from the sky and landing steadily.
All of them landed in the county office.
When the magistrate saw this, he drew in a cold breath!
This was because among the few people he saw, two of them were wearing official robes. Moreover, the color of the official robes and the patterns on them all represented the identities of these two people.
High officials!
High officials of the Prefecture Capital!
How did they arrive so quickly? He had just heard the constable deliver a message, and in the next moment, they were already here? He did not have the time to make any preparations!
Even though he said this in his heart, on the surface, the magistrate’s reaction was very quick.
He did not say a word and hurriedly bowed.
He said respectfully in a loud voice, “Qinghe County Magistrate Wu Qili greets all the high officials!”
The constable beside him did not dare to make a sound at this moment.
In his eyes, the county magistrate was already a big figure as big as the sky. Even the county magistrate was so respectful to this group of people and even called them ‘high officials’.
He bowed respectfully.
The people who came were Fu Shuangni and the others!
“You are Qinghe county magistrate? “A middle-aged official from the State Capital asked in surprise, “Why don’t you have any cultivation? You are actually an ordinary person?”
The magistrate was embarrassed and could only reply, “Back to the higher-ups, when I got my title, I already missed the best opportunity to cultivate.”
At this moment, another state official received a document from the person beside him and spread it out in front of the Magistrate of Qinghe County.
Boom!
A majestic and righteous aura shot into the sky as if it wanted to disperse the dark clouds in the sky.
It shocked the entire county office and caused a commotion.
Everyone noticed the commotion here.
The middle-aged official holding the document. He spoke with a solemn tone, “Under the orders of the governor of the Prefecture Capital, in response to the urgent news of Qinghe County requesting reinforcements, I have come to thoroughly investigate the matter of the demon cultivators of the Sacred Heart Palace! From today onwards, all the officials of Qinghe County will listen to our orders!”
“Yes… Yes!!” The Qinghe county magistrate was so shocked by the strange phenomenon that he swallowed his saliva.
He knew that in front of him were all important figures that he could not afford to offend.
It seemed that…
In the future, as a magistrate, he could only be an assistant to these officials.
