The Journey of Immortal Cultivation Chapter 194 - 128 Blood Exchange2

Master Fan and Wenger both relaxed. Originally, this thod was only a conjecture between the two of them, it was quite a gamble - after all, where could one capture another Half-demon to experint with? But from what it looks like now, they gambled correctly.

Just at this mont, Master Fan suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards the stone wall. There, a yellow talisman miraculously ignited without fire; within a few seconds, it burned to ashes, leaving nothing but a pile of ash.

"Sothing’s changed above." It was now the ti of Hai, equivalent to after eleven at night, the dead of midnight when all was silent. What could possibly happen? The talisman was attached to a wall in the small courtyard of the Wen Residence. If there was no invasion from an external enemy, it would never burn like this as a signal. He frowned and looked at Wen Liangyu, "What have you done?"

Wen Liangyu’s forehead was covered in cold sweat, but he revealed a forced smile: "I just notified the Clearing Void Sect that the Immortal Silver they were supposed to receive every year was embezzled. Who knew that the ssage sent out the day before yesterday would only get a response tonight."

In his heart, he also found it strange - why would people from the Clearing Void Sect co to check their accounts in the middle of the night?

Wenger exclaid in disbelief: "Impossible! I have been strictly controlling everyone leaving the Wen Residence for the past two days. Without my orders, not even a servant dares to step out. How did you manage to send out the ssage?"

Wen Liangyu closed his eyes, ignoring him.

Wenger, being a clever man, his eyes spun around and he suddenly realized: "Ah, it must be Uncle Wu, my most trusted Grand Steward! At this ti, only he could move freely in and out of the Wen Residence to transmit ssages. I didn’t expect that after over a decade of serving at my side, he would end up being bribed by you!"

Wen Liangyu sneered coldly: "I have my ways, it’s unrelated to Uncle Wu. Believe it or not, it’s up to you."

Wenger was unwilling to believe it but just as he was about to say sothing else, Master Fan muttered a spell and from the river, a crystal-clear ball of water appeared out of thin air, flying towards him and slowly opening up into an oval-shaped Water Mirror. With a swipe of his hand, an image appeared on the Water Mirror.

"A basic Water Mirror Technique," Lord Changtian said lazily. "He marked a specific place within the residence, and by using this Water Mirror Technique, one can see what is happening there."

Environntally friendly surveillance caras! Ning Xiaoxian truly admired the creativity of these cultivators. How was such a practical technique invented?

Master Fan frowned again, speaking in a low voice, "These aren’t people from the Clearing Void Sect." Everyone present turned their gaze to watch the scene revealed within the Water Mirror closely. His mark was probably made in the courtyard outside Wenger’s study. The scene they saw was four people standing on the green lawn.

The four individuals varied in height and appearance, and their clothing was quite peculiar. One of the n was extrely tall, about eight feet, with ringed eyes, large ears, a bald head, and bare-chested, even sporting a nose ring. Additionally, a woman clad in purple with willow leaf brows and a figure as slender as a snake exuded a seductive deanor. The other two individuals were not very tall, their faces shrouded in darkness, making it hard to see clearly.

Let alone others, just by seeing these four people’s eccentric attires, Ning Xiaoxian knew that they couldn’t possibly be disciples from the Clearing Void Sect.

All was silent around. The tall man, holding a house slave of the Wen Residence, asked, "Where is your master?" with a voice as resonant as a bell. The servant, trembling, whispered, "Normally, my master sleeps in this small building, but today, for so reason, there has been no sound at all."

The tall man grunted, effortlessly snapping the servant’s neck and tossing the corpse onto the ground, saying, "Clearly, there’s no one in this courtyard. Could it be that Mr. Wen received a ssage and fled?"

The woman pondered, "Let’s search inside and outside this courtyard first, there might be so hidden doors we don’t know about. This spirit tea from Rock City, who would have thought it also had the effect of removing Heart Demons and reinforcing one’s ntal state? If we don’t secure spirit tea seeds sooner, with Major Sects arriving later on, where would our share be?"

As her words fell, everyone in the cave widened their eyes, including Lord Changtian in the God Demon Prison, who let out a surprised chirp. Wenger called out in shock, "What... What? The Spiritual Tea has the effect of expelling Heart Demons?!" Seeing his face turn abruptly pale, it was evident that this piece of information nearly made him lose his composure. He turned to Master Fan, urgently asking, "When you tested the tea that day, why didn’t you notice it?"

There was a hint of impertinence in his words. Master Fan’s face darkened, thinking to himself that he, as a Golden Core Stage cultivator, was not a house slave of the Wen Residence to be shouted at. However, he was at fault first and was indeed shaken by the news. His face alternated between pale and flushed, and he was montarily lost for words.

Ning Xiaoxian hurriedly touched the Demon Eye. However, this ti Lord Changtian helplessly said, "I’m not omniscient; how could I know everything? I also wasn’t aware that an additional effect of the Spiritual Tea in expelling Heart Demons could cause such a stir in their hearts and minds."

Lord Changtian, you’re letting down all of a sudden? Ning Xiaoxian was not quite sure what to make of it, but observing the expressions of several people in the room fluctuating unpredictably, and even the concerned party Wen Liangyu looking bewildered, she suddenly sensed that this turn of events might bring a twist.

In the Water Mirror, after a quick conversation, the four people dispersed to search the area. However, the woman seed to have so tricks up her sleeve—it appeared she sensed soone spying; she looked around the courtyard and then gazed directly at the Water Mirror. With a cold sneer, she advanced towards it, and the Water Mirror beca engulfed in darkness.

Master Fan clenched his teeth and said, "She has sensed sothing and won’t leave easily. I’ll go and deal with them."}

Wenger, concerned, asked, "Master, aren’t you needed here to preside over the situation?"

Master Fan shook his head and responded, "If I don’t take care of them, the secret passage will be exposed soon. It’s not convenient to use techniques in such a cramped space. Don’t worry; Second Young Master Wen can’t move, and there’s no one else here. Just hold on a little longer and the blood exchange will be completed." With those words, he no longer lingered and hurriedly walked towards the secret passage where Ning Xiaoxian was concealed.

As he left, there were now only two people of substance left in the cave. Wenger took a deep breath, suppressing his anxious heart. "It’s all coming to an end, and I will have a long life again."
