Chapter 766

These secret plans and conspiracies aside.

The goal of delaying time had already been achieved.

Gu Gu Hanyuan suddenly moved, looking into the distance.

Wuxiang also reacted quickly and frowned.

They saw a large group of Six Fan Gate constables and catchers rushing over with great momentum.

Leading them was a cold, beautiful, and heroic female catcher in black.

The woman's voice, as crisp and delicate as an oriole coming out of a valley, said loudly:

"This official is the Black-Clad Divine Catcher Ji Ji Yaohua, here to take charge of the Plum Blossom Thief case and take Li Li Xunhuan away." ===== CHAPTER 1740 =====

Ji Ji Yaohua was about twenty-four or twenty-five years old.

Beneath her cold, heroic temperament were charming, affectionate eyes and a slender, moving figure.

Her appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Although the Ming Guo of this world had many internal and external troubles, the imperial court's strength was still strong.

Especially various privileged departments that recruited a large number of experts.

Six Fan Gate had a clear hierarchy.

The leader was the Catcher God Liu Jiyan, with the Four Great Divine Catchers under his command.

Below that were the Black-Clad Candidate Divine Catchers, Gold-Clad Catchers, Purple-Clad Catchers, Blue-Clad Catchers, and Yellow-Clad Constables.

Therefore, Ji Ji Yaohua's official title should be Black-Clad Candidate Divine Catcher.

It was also fine to call her a Black-Clad Divine Catcher when dealing with the outside world.

Ji Ji Yaohua was able to become one of the only two Black-Clad female Divine Catchers of Six Fan Gate not because of her cultivation level, which was only at the late Innate stage.

But because of the support of the forces behind her, she was able to hold a high position at a young age.

Except for the Four Great Divine Catchers, who had a hard requirement of Master-level cultivation, other levels valued case-solving ability and merit more.

There was no lack of Master-level experts who remained as Gold-Clad Catchers.

And Six Fan Gate's strength among the privileged departments was only considered medium, which showed how strong the imperial court's power was.

Logically, Ji Ji Yaohua, with only late Innate cultivation, was not qualified to intervene in a case caused by a Master.

But as long as one looked at the hand crossbows in the hands of the dozens of Purple-Clad, Blue-Clad, and Yellow-Clad subordinates following her, no one dared to have any objections.

Hand crossbows and bows and arrows were the most lethal to Jianghu experts.

The larger the scale of a volley of arrows, the greater the lethality.

In small-scale battles, hand crossbows were light and powerful.

A Master who was not proficient in movement techniques would find it difficult to escape death if shot at by dozens of hand crossbows.

Of course, more importantly, there were very few people in Ming Guo who dared to provoke the imperial court's majesty.

For example, the expressions of the Northern North Shaolin monks, including Xinmei, were extremely ugly at this moment.

Even the Land Immortal Wuxiang found it difficult.

If Li Li Xunhuan had already been in the hands of Northern North Shaolin, they would naturally have had plenty of ways to shirk responsibility.

At this moment, because Gu Gu Hanyuan had delayed time, Li Li Xunhuan had not yet fallen into the hands of Northern North Shaolin when the Six Fan Gate people arrived.

It was impossible for Northern North Shaolin to snatch the person from Six Fan Gate.

On the surface, Northern North Shaolin would not provoke the imperial court's majesty.

While Northern North Shaolin dared not conflict directly with the imperial court, the imperial court would not excessively make things difficult for Northern North Shaolin.

This was a tacit rule observed by the imperial court and the major forces in the Jianghu.

Moreover, Buddhism needed to preach, and it had always been obedient to the imperial court.

For example, when Southern North Shaolin exposed two Land Immortals and was targeted by the Song Guo imperial court, they quickly admitted defeat.

Therefore, the Northern North Shaolin monks silently made way when they saw Ji Ji Yaohua bringing people closer.

There was no trace of the overbearing arrogance they had when they wanted to take Li Li Xunhuan away.

Wuxiang took a deep look at Gu Gu Hanyuan.

Figures flickered, and he left the place silently.

Seeing this, Gu Gu Hanyuan sneered disdainfully.

The look Wuxiang gave before leaving conveyed a "This time our Northern North Shaolin admits defeat."

It seemed like a concession, but in reality, it was telling Gu Gu Hanyuan that he had remembered this debt.

If an ordinary person were remembered with such hidden hostility by a Land Immortal, they would likely be unable to sleep or eat in peace.

However, Gu Gu Hanyuan only found it funny.

Wuxiang's head was only temporarily stored on his shoulders.

Northern North Shaolin had been slapped in the face repeatedly this time, did not take Li Li Xunhuan away, and lost face, suffering no small loss.

And there was also the Land Immortal Wuxiang.

Most of Gu Gu Hanyuan's goals had been achieved.

The rest could be seen from the way Xinjian stared at Long Xiao's corpse with flickering eyes, knowing that there was no problem.

Skipping those calculations in his heart.

Gu Gu Hanyuan turned his attention to Ji Ji Yaohua.

He had no small interest in Ji Ji Yaohua, not just in her personally, but more interested in the An Shigeng behind her.

Logically, An Shigeng should be preparing to steal the copper molds and cast counterfeit coins to disrupt the situation in the capital.

Ji Ji Yaohua, whom he had planted as an undercover agent in Six Fan Gate, should not be coming to meddle in the Li Li Xunhuan and Plum Blossom Thief case at such a critical moment.

The only explanation was that Ji Ji Yaohua's goal was not Li Li Xunhuan, but Gu Gu Hanyuan.

To be precise, it was An Shigeng behind Ji Ji Yaohua who had set his sights on Gu Gu Hanyuan.

Looking at Ji Ji Yaohua's beautiful eyes, which carried an inexplicable meaning.

Gu Gu Hanyuan knew that his guess was mostly correct.

The two looked at each other from a distance.

Ji Ji Yaohua relied on her beauty and the status of a Six Fan Gate Black-Clad Divine Catcher to become the focus of everyone's attention.

But in her eyes, those Jianghu martial artists around her were like dispensable extras.

They were completely different from Gu Gu Hanyuan in the center of the crowd.

A white robe with gold trim, a handsome and flawless appearance, an independent temperament, just like a refined young master in a turbid world.

"No wonder the rumors always say Gu Gu Hanyuan is like a banished immortal, the dream lover of countless women."

Ji Ji Yaohua praised inwardly.

But that was as far as it went.

For Ji Ji Yaohua, who had no personal freedom, love was a luxury; even if she fell in love with someone, what could she do?

Beneath her cold, beautiful appearance was a closed heart.

Not to mention that she was also here to contact Gu Gu Hanyuan with An Shigeng's mission.

Subconsciously, she carried feelings of disgust.

However, her years of undercover life made her expression management perfect.

They saw Ji Ji Yaohua's pretty face suddenly bloom with a smile, like a flower blooming in the spring after surviving a cold winter.

That cold, beautiful temperament immediately dissipated, revealing a charming and beautiful appearance.

Ji Ji Yaohua cupped her hands and smiled:

"May I ask if this is Young Master Gu?"

Gu Gu Hanyuan smiled:

"It is indeed me. The two golden flowers of Six Fan Gate are well-deserved; Miss Ji is indeed as beautiful as a flower."

Ji Ji Yaohua's beautiful eyebrows furrowed imperceptibly.

Gu Gu Hanyuan was romantic and affectionate; it was not surprising that he praised her beauty upon meeting.

Otherwise, An Shigeng would not have specifically asked her to contact Gu Gu Hanyuan.

It was just that Ji Ji Yaohua inevitably felt some discomfort in her heart; after all, there had always been people questioning her position as a Black-Clad Divine Catcher.

Thinking that she was incapable and just a beautiful vase.

What made Ji Ji Yaohua even more unhappy was that Gu Gu Hanyuan also mentioned the two golden flowers. ===== CHAPTER 1741 =====
