Chapter 488

And didn’t pay any more attention to it.

At the same time, the County Magistrate’s wife beside him was also in a state of lingering fear.

Constantly stroking her chest, adjusting her breathing.

As time passed, the fear gradually went away, and the two who had calmed down regained their reason.

And this County Magistrate, thinking of the previous situation, couldn’t help but regret it again.

A wave of self-reproach in his heart.

“If I had known, I wouldn’t have been so deeply involved with them; I didn’t expect them to actually come to my door today.”

Thinking back to when this County Magistrate had not yet grown up, he was also a young man full of ideals and ambitions.

It was just that reality was ultimately reality; after experiencing a beating from society, he couldn’t help but feel dejected.

It was just that when he was frustrated, suddenly a force calling itself the Blood Blade Sect found him.

And expressed willingness to help him realize his ideals and ambitions.

Upon seeing this force calling itself the Blood Blade Sect for the first time, this young County Magistrate instantly became interested.

Although he knew in his heart that they certainly weren’t good people, and their purpose for helping him was also very impure.

It was just that at this time, he didn’t want to consider so much anymore.

Just hoping to get help from the Blood Blade Sect.

Holding a try-it-out mentality, he was also prepared to let it break.

If it succeeded, it would naturally be best; if not, it was just like that.

However, what surprised him was that not long after, he was promoted one after another.

And his luck also became quite good.

And facing such a situation, he originally had a set of ambitions that he couldn’t display.

Instantly, he became spirited, and then, relying on his efforts and the secret support of the Blood Blade Sect, he finally reached this step.

And for a long time afterward, although he also did some things for the Blood Blade Sect in the dark, he had always hidden it well.

In most cases, he arranged for his subordinates to do it, and he also held the idea of not seeing it and not worrying about it.

In this way, he wouldn’t face the side he was unwilling to accept in his heart directly.

And what made him slightly gratified was that the Blood Blade Sect, perhaps to ensure that his position as County Magistrate sat firmly,

Or for other reasons, did not distribute too many troublesome tasks that were easy to arouse suspicion to him.

Therefore, he had been doing well until now.

All along, he thought there wouldn’t be any risky things anymore.

Until a few days ago, Ying Mo led the heavy troops and surrounded the entire Heihu County.

And quickly sent troops to station and carry out military control.

Not only that, other cities in the vicinity were also the same.

This made him unable to understand what was going on even if he wanted to from the Blood Blade Sect.

Passing intelligence was even more impossible.

But his intuition told him that something big was going to happen.

However, what he never expected was that this matter could be big enough to let this current Blood Blade Sect Master sneak into his bedroom.

Take the initiative to negotiate with him and make demands.

And even made concessions in the end. But just when things were almost done, he encountered

This matter made him surprised and carried a trace of disbelief.

However, just as he was lost in thought, recalling the past entanglements with the Blood Blade Sect,

On the other side, the County Magistrate’s wife took the initiative to speak.

“Not long ago, my distant cousin found me, hoping I

"And since you had a rather busy case on your hands at the time, I didn't tell you; I just instructed my subordinates to handle it."

As the County Magistrate's wife said this, she also carried a hint of grievance.

"Everything had already been arranged, but just at that moment, Lord Ying Mo arrived with his troops."

"His subordinates immediately imposed military control, and that was why it was shelved again."

"Because of this, my family complained about me quite a bit, saying that even though I've become the County Magistrate's wife, I can't even handle such a simple matter, and they even said I was starting to throw tantrums at home."

"It made me feel so wronged."

As she spoke, the County Magistrate's wife seemed to have forgotten the previous scene entirely.

She began to pour out her bitterness to her husband before her.

"Alright, stop talking."

However, just as she was tearfully recounting some of the previous events, she suddenly heard her husband speak in a cold voice.

At this moment, she quickly stopped, looking at her husband with a tender gaze, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"Master..."

At the same time, she couldn't help but murmur.

She thought that the words she had used to persuade him earlier had made him very uncomfortable, so she prepared to explain.

But who would have thought that as she spoke, she would become lost in her own emotions, unable to pull herself out.

Now, seeing her husband's reaction, she was stunned again.

On the other side, after the County Magistrate felt agitated for a while, he immediately calmed down.

At the same time, he gently patted the back of his wife in front of him, then sighed helplessly and spoke.

"Sigh, wife, this isn't about other problems."

"It is mainly because Lord Ying Mo is currently dealing a fatal blow to the Blood Blade Sect."

"And now that the Sect Master of the Blood Blade Sect has actually come to our doorstep, I really don't know what to do."

"If it were like in the past, arranging a place for a friend and settling a few people would be absolutely no problem."

"It's just that the timing is too sensitive now, and their identities are even less something we can get involved with."

"Once my involvement is exposed, the official hat on my head will be gone."

"And our whole family might end up separated by life and death."

As the County Magistrate retreated from his memories, he quickly realized the situation he was currently facing.

Thinking of his wife beside him, he couldn't help but tell her about the hidden concerns.

However, at this moment, the County Magistrate's wife was left stunned.

She originally only knew that the matter was quite serious, but she didn't know to what extent.

But when she heard her husband's blunt words,

she immediately understood how difficult the situation was, and for a moment, she couldn't help but be stunned.

"Then... what should we do?"

After slightly recovering her senses, she couldn't help but tightly hold her husband's arm and shake it.

At the same time, she said hurriedly.

As she spoke, there was even a hint of a sob in her voice.

However, the County Magistrate, who would usually comfort her at such a time,

was now lost in silence.

At the same time, he himself looked dejected, not knowing what to do.

After a period of silence, the County Magistrate steadied his mind and then spoke.

"For now, we can only take it one step at a time; let's fulfill his requests first."

"Otherwise, if he gets provoked, who knows what he might do? We must stabilize him first."

After the County Magistrate finished speaking, he sighed again.

At the same time, he couldn't help but gently stroke his wife's back, slowly beginning to comfort her.

And the County Magistrate's wife cried until she was tired.
