The Fairy: From the Traveling Merchant

Chapter 874 Return to Beijing
The person Zhao Chen was referring to was named "Feng Xu", which means "as vast as Feng Xu riding the wind, but no one knows where he will stop; as light as floating like an isolated figure from the world, ascending to heaven". The name has a good connotation, but this person does not care about human affairs.

It was fine before. Although he often bullied others because of his prominent family background, he was at most called a "bad boy" and was not sentenced to death.

But after he used the tissue from some monster to open his front and back orifices, he began to become cruel and bloodthirsty, taking pleasure in torturing and killing others.

At first, he knew how to restrain himself, and would only seek out bandits or death row prisoners held by the government to vent his anger when he really couldn't bear it any longer. But as time went on, these could no longer satisfy him, so he extended his evil hand to independent cultivators... Recently, even several disappearances of ordinary people were suspected to be related to him.

In the Ningzhou area, the government doesn't really care about the conflicts between cultivators, unless it involves demons, in which case the government would like to see as many people die... But if ordinary people are involved, the Six Gates will intervene.

However, it is said that this Feng Xu was favored by the "Fairy Flying Snow" Feng Qing. Not only did his cultivation advance by leaps and bounds, reaching the realm of magical powers in a short period of time, but even the crimes he committed were either suppressed by the Feng family or someone else was found to take the blame.

The reason why Zhao Chen chose him first was not only because this man might be related to Feng Qing, but mainly because he deserved to die!

Gong Yun saw the person her husband had chosen and said with a smile, "Feng Xu is indeed a good candidate, and his information is relatively detailed because it was deliberately released by some of the Six Gates' detectives...

"I just don't know why such a rotten person could catch the eye of that fairy Feng Qing."

Zhao Chen pointed his finger at the phrase "the tissue on the monster's body" in the information and nodded, saying, "What exactly this monster is is the key. It is likely that Feng Qing deliberately raised him."

"Raise him?" Gong Yun pinched his smooth chin thoughtfully, and suddenly remembered something, raised his eyebrows and said, "I once overheard Feng Qing making a deal with a rebel elder of the 'Ten Thousand Beasts Sect', and the former got the longevity elixir from the latter!"

Zhao Chen remembered this incident very clearly. After all, that was the first time he and the little black cat met. So he raised his lips and said, "It was when you were injured by her 'Flying Snow Divine Sound' and ran to me to seek protection, right?"

Gong Yun rolled her eyes at him and pretended to be angry, "Yeah, I was caught by you right after I jumped into the window. You also turned me over and forced me to check my gender. You even wanted to sterilize me...

"And you actually saw through my transformation at that time!"

Unexpectedly, the other party could master the top magical power of "digging up old scores" without any instruction. Zhao Chen smiled awkwardly and said, "It's just a scare. I'm just joking with you."

Without waiting for Gong Yun to respond, Zhao Chen turned the topic back to Feng Xu and asked, "You mean, there is something wrong with the longevity pills of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, and Feng Qing finally discovered it, so she used Feng Xu to experiment in an attempt to solve the hidden danger?"

Gong Yun was not really angry, the bickering was just for fun, so after Zhao Chen talked about business, she calmed down and nodded, saying: "Except for the products of the Danding Xianzong, other elixirs will have some problems to a certain extent. Although this is only circulated in the circles of the upper sects and aristocratic families, Feng Qing, as a real person of Dongxuan who has lived for hundreds of years, should also know it.

"She was almost dead, so she had no choice but to take it... But that doesn't mean she wasn't prepared."

Zhao Chen was well aware that all elixirs had problems. Even though Ming Hongyue spent a high price to ask someone she trusted to refine the "Green Emperor's Moisturizing Pill", it actually deepened the bond between her and himself, the cultivator who had obtained the true meaning of "Taichu".

This may be a good thing for Hongyue, but it may not be the case for others who take this pill.

If I have anything to do with him, my life will be very exciting!
While thinking this in his heart, Zhao Chen sighed and continued: "So, Feng Xu is either a test subject for her to verify the side effects of the 'life-extending elixir', or a material she cultivated that can resist the side effects?"

Gong Yun also connected the information she had found: "Most likely the latter... From the time point of view, Feng Xu started to use monster tissue to 'refine the mind' after the blood moon night in Ganzhou. "And the Six Gates has records that 'Flying Snow Fairy' Feng Qing once sealed a 'Blood Egg' in Dunhuang."

Hearing this, Zhao Chen's thoughts became clear: "Feng Qing tried to use the power of the 'Blood Egg' to eliminate the hidden problems in the elixir, but was worried about being eroded by the 'Blood Moon', so he thought of cultivating Feng Xu and adding another layer..."

At this point, Zhao Chen couldn't help but shake his head and laugh: "It seems that Feng Xu is indeed the best candidate...

“First, damn, there is no moral burden to exploit it.

"Secondly, Feng Qing would be keeping a close eye on him. It would be difficult to hide the fact that he got the 'treasure' we made from Feng Qing, a real person.

"Third, Feng Xu may not be willing to be cultivated into a pill or material. He is likely to have the intention of 'resistance' and can be easily exploited...

“Fourth, if we can expose Feng Qing’s arrangement and let the treacherous elders of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect notice it, maybe we can let them fight in advance.

"Fifth, her 'chess piece' encountered an unexpected event, and she tried every possible means to conceal it, but she eventually discovered it, and intercepted it before it succeeded... This kind of scenario is less likely to be suspected, after all, she 'discovered' it herself.

“People are often ‘conceited’, and this is especially true of ‘Flying Snow Fairy’.

"If she wasn't so conceited, she wouldn't have taken the pill even though she knew it was problematic, she wouldn't have sought cooperation with the evil organization and harmed her own descendants, and she wouldn't have tried to use the Blood Moon's Blood Egg to solve her own problems...

“Although I don’t know what philosophy Feng Qing adheres to after becoming a real person, it is very likely that ‘self-conceit’ is one of the manifestations of that obsession, and this is her weakness.

“Of course, it’s not ruled out that she pretended to be like this… but the possibility is not high.

"After all, the Feng family is a small family among the prominent families, and Feng Qing is the only real person in the Feng family in the past few hundred years. It is unlikely that he can learn from the experience of his predecessors."

As the words fell, Zhao Chen and Gong Yun looked at each other, and a plan against Feng Xu and Feng Qing began to unfold.

Since the little black cat had done enough groundwork in addition to setting up the secret realm, the story that Feng Xu accidentally ran into the "girl" wanted by the Guo family on the street. Even though the other party had disguised herself, he was still able to see through her with his special sensing ability. In the end, he followed her all the way and blocked her in a dilapidated house. After a fierce battle, he accidentally beat the "girl" into ashes, but got the "treasure of Manager Xin's family" from her storage bag seemed logical.

Next, after a series of research on the treasure, Feng Xu should discover that it is an ancient token that can open a secret realm.

Since it would take some time to decipher the true function of the treasure and find the location of the secret realm, the "girl" Zhao Chen who was beaten to ashes did not choose to continue waiting. Instead, she returned to the capital after saying goodbye to the little black cat.

Because Ming Xueling sent him a message through the "Flower Fairy", informing him that King Liang's fourth secret realm adventure was about to begin.
