Using the secret dicine of tigers and wolves to lock the Qi Blood and strength in the limbs and bones, nourishing the sinew, bones, skin, and mbranes, making it as solid as a body of Horizontal Training Great Success.
Ordinary treasure weapons and sharp tools, when used against the flesh, find it hard to inflict deadly damage.
"I’ve interrogated him. Lu Zhongping is very weak; he couldn’t endure after just two rounds of punishnt. He adamantly claims to only know that Zhou Fuchen joined the Four Reversals Sect, using Rejuvenating Pills and Beauty Pills as bait to lure him in.
The Lu Family had so dealings with the Four Reversals Sect years ago. According to Lu Zhongping’s confession, he initially didn’t know Zhou Fuchen’s background, only that he was a Guest Minister of a certain son from the Eight Pillars of the Realm, trying to forge a connection. Later, he beca more entangled and boarded the pirate ship."
Xu Zhen reported truthfully:
"Lu Zhongping confessed that he had refined so Rejuvenating Pills and Beauty Pills, selling them to an esteed person in the Celestial Water Prefecture. The esteed person was greatly satisfied, which is why he was willing to take on such a high risk and collude with the Four Reversals Sect for trade.
As for the White Sun Sect... he firmly denies any knowledge."
Master Xuanji’s eyes flickered:
"Rejuvenating, life-extending, and beauty-boosting pills are indeed in high demand. Did Lu Zhongping clarify which household in the Celestial Water Prefecture bought them?"
Xu Zhen hesitated for a mont and answered in a deep voice:
"I don’t know the specific details, but during the transaction, Lu Zhongping accidentally overheard soone ntioning ’Duke Erzhu’s’ na."
Master Xuanji’s expression suddenly turned stern, pressing his palm on the long table, his body leaning forward, his eyes cold and piercing:
"Did he truly say that? Is he not just bluffing?!"
The wind whirled through the Governnt Office’s hall like blades of steel scraping through the air, an anomaly caused by the fluctuations in Master Xuanji’s Divine Soul.
"I specifically chose a few of Lu Zhongping’s close henchn and got consistent answers from their lips. The receiver was soone unfamiliar, accompanied by seven or eight servants, like Military Soldiers, all at Third Training Great Success. Most oddly, they traveled on an official salt and iron transport ship, avoiding many inspections..."
Xu Zhen lowered his head, not daring to continue.
Celestial Water Prefecture, Duke Erzhu.
The weight of these two words together was staggering.
"He’s the adoptive father of Grand General Zhao of Celestial Water Prefecture, the current Duke, one of the Eight Pillars of the Realm, Erzhu Grand Commandant. It was rumored for years that his ti would soon be up."
Master Xuanji’s heart pounded with fear. If this truly involved the Eight Pillars of the Realm, who almost held dominion and wielded power over the court, even ten lives wouldn’t be enough for him to bear.
Just Zhao Pijiang alone was enough to suppress the ridian Sword Sect.
Not to ntion, behind him was the great pillar, Erzhu Long.
Holding the imperial token, commanding the forbidden guards, attending court without kneeling... such honors added to his stature.
Even the Golden Talisman Daoist Officials of the Divine Capital had to show him so respect.
"Master, how should we conclude this matter?"
Xu Zhen carefully asked.
Warriors and Daoist Officials were like master and servant, their fates intertwined in glory and downfall.
"Even if it’s truly under the Duke’s gate, it doesn’t matter."
Master Xuanji quickly regained his composure, pondering:
"A re Lu Family is not worthy of entering the Grand Commandant’s Dharma Eye. With or without them, it’s the sa, as long as they can supply the elixirs.
Lu Zhongping’s close connections with the rogue party of the demon sect, his cris are undeniable and cannot be overturned again.
Zhou Fuchen’s Divine Soul scattered, unable to reincarnate. The Lu Family’s properties were confiscated, the direct lineage imprisoned to be executed in autumn, and the rest exiled.
As for the trade of Rejuvenating Pills and Beauty Pills, since the esteed in Celestial Water Prefecture like them, we should take over the operation."
Xu Zhen’s brows twitched violently:
"What if the Four Reversals Demon Sect’s prescriptions have any problems when consud?"
Master Xuanji shook his head:
"You underestimate the Divine Power Giants too much. Could they really be poisoned or hard by the Four Reversals Demon Sect? If there were any tampering, even before Erzhu Grand Commandant issued any orders, Grand General Zhao would have eradicated the Lu Family."
He lightly tapped the long table with his fingers and added:
"Additionally, send a letter to the Observatory Tower. They excel in calculating heavenly chanisms and investigating backgrounds.
I always felt Zhou Fuchen had sothing strange about him, first entering the White Sun Sect, then joining the Four Reversals Sect, and even infiltrating beneath the eye of the Eight Pillars of the Realm... let the Immortal Masters of the Observatory Tower examine it again."
...
...
In a dim and gloomy temple in the Celestial Water Prefecture, a thunderous roar suddenly echoed, the sound waves exploding to stir a strong wind, causing the old mottled walls to crack and rattle.
"What happened?"
"Why is the Great Virtuous Blood Vajra so angry?"
"Who angered the Upper Deity..."
The nurous followers prostrated on the cushions were all shocked, trembling like a lone boat in a vast ocean, ready to be shattered by the waves at any mont.
"Please, Protector Upper Deity, quell your anger!"
An old man, hunched, wearing a burlap robe with bare feet and unkempt hair, rose, crossing his hands over his chest, sincerely reciting the Four Reversals scriptures as if to calm the thundering rage of the Blood Vajra.
The terrifying clay statue seed to peel away continuously, as if revealing its true form, the heavy incense table beneath it on the verge of cracking.
Listening to the Divine Oracle, the old man had strands of blood seeping from his ears, yet he remained respectful and earnest.
The words of the Blood Vajra sounded like successive crashes of thunder.
"A traitor? Among our sect there lurks an undercover agent from the White Sun Sect! And they’ve even climbed to the position of Hall Master!"
The hunched old man’s face twitched wildly. If it weren’t for the Great Virtuous Blood Vajra personally declaring it, he wouldn’t believe the White Sun Sect could plant spies so deeply.
One must know, to join the Four Reversals Sect, one had to praise the Protector Upper Deity and choose to understand one of five scriptures.
As one’s skills grew purer, naturally, they would deeply believe in the deity residing in their heart.
How could there possibly be traitor spies arising!
The hunched old man turned around, his expression fierce:
"A bunch of useless gluttons! The cult having a mole yet not knowing about it! Conduct a thorough investigation for !"
...
...
In the quiet chamber for secluded training, Chen Xing seed to be nodding off, resting his head on his hand, with a faint red glow at his brow.
