Chapter 616: Secret Book of Foreign Languages
"Ah Xuan, what is this?" the three asked in unison.

Li Xuan chuckled: "It's the storage ring of the Western Region Fire Demon."

Previously, when Li Xuan absorbed the five elements of reincarnation produced after the death of the Western Region Fire Demon, he found such a thing. The others had all been burned to ashes.

He had been coveting the Western Fire Demon's bone sickle, which looked quite intimidating.

But after the death of the Western Region Fire Demon, the bone sickle also disappeared unknowingly along with the Dao Realm, which made him feel pity.

Li Xuan originally wanted to see if he could do it.

Anyway, he has a tail, so he has no problem wielding any weapon with a handle, no matter whether it is long or short.

Now that I think about it, Li Xuanjia had fought a lot, but he rarely used weapons.

Li Xuan directly used the Yin-Yang Qi to open the bone ring, and then took out the things inside one by one.

The space inside the bone ring is slightly smaller than Li Xuan's Dihong bone ring, but it can also hold things.

"Eh?"

Li Xuan was comparing the sizes of the two storage rings when he suddenly discovered that the Dihong Bone Ring had an additional, extremely spacious storage space.

The several spaces before the Emperor Hong Bone Ring were only one cubic meter in size, but this space that appeared out of nowhere was actually twenty to thirty times larger.

"what?"

Li Xuan looked at the storage space that was three meters long, wide and high. His expression changed from stunned to confused.

"what happened?"

"Can we live here?"

"When did such a large space appear?"

Three big question marks appeared on Li Xuan's head.

Li Xuan knew that the storage space of the Emperor Hong Bone Ring was growing.

Every time his strength level was promoted to a higher level, a corresponding new space would slowly open up in the storage space of the Dihong Bone Ring.

But until now, the extra space was the same one cubic space.

Compared with other storage magic weapons, this space is already very large, and Li Xuan had six such spaces before.

Even if an ordinary person obtains the Emperor Hong Bone Ring, it can open up a storage space, and then open up more spaces as the strength grows. Zhao Feng told Li Xuan about this after he obtained the Emperor Hong Bone Ring.

The space in the Dihong Bone Ring has been sufficient for a long time, otherwise Li Xuan would not have used it as a warehouse and put everything in it, even a lot of food and water.

Li Xuan prefers to be well prepared in case of emergency.

Although he had been promoted to the fourth rank for some time, the new storage space had not appeared yet.

"Could it be because I just absorbed the power of the Five Elements Reincarnation?"

Li Xuan suddenly thought of the key point, and the more he thought about it, the more he realized this.

"But this is too big!"

Li Xuan stood there in a daze, and even stopped taking things out of the bone ring.

The other three were originally helping Li Xuan sort out the relics of the Western Region Fire Demon.

At the beginning, Li Xuan took out some common personal belongings such as banknotes, clothes, and pills, and they helped to sort them into categories.

Now seeing Li Xuan's movements stopped, Zhao Feng couldn't help but ask:
"Ah Xuan, what treasure does the Western Region Fire Demon have? Take it out and have a look. You will be stunned by it."

The chief monk Ye also became interested.

Li Xuan stayed in the palace, but his vision was quite good and he came into contact with the best things.

Even the natural treasures that are in demand nowadays are becoming more and more rare.

The Arctic Supreme Shells that Jingyang Palace had eaten before were already the most top-notch treasures in the North.

It would be unlikely to find anything better than this in the North.

But the three of them couldn't help but become interested because Li Xuan, who had eaten the Arctic Supreme Shell, was so shocked.

Li Xuan blinked his eyes, then said hesitantly:

"My Emperor Hong bone ring is weird, meow."

Then he told her that he had an extra large storage space.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Ye and the two stewards couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Xuan, don't worry."

Manager Shang explained to Li Xuan with a smile.

"The Emperor Hong Bone Ring has a total of ten storage spaces, six small and four large."

"You are now a fourth-grade master, so you should have opened up your first large storage space. There are three more of this size behind you."

After listening to what Manager Shang said, Li Xuan finally felt relieved, knowing that there was nothing wrong with his Dihong Bone Ring.

And when he heard that there would be three such large storage spaces in the back, Li Xuan felt a little numb.

"Is this enough to live in?"

Li Xuan was secretly complaining in his heart, and even thought about whether he should go to the city to find a part-time job and deliver goods for people.

His current carrying capacity is almost as large as that of a large truck.

While Li Xuan felt relieved, he couldn't help but feel a little worried. What should he decorate such a large space with?

You know, Li Xuan had felt that the storage space was too large, so he prepared a lot of small stones as ammunition for Princess Ankang.

"Okay, okay, don't make a fuss. Let's continue to see what other good things the Western Region Fire Demon has." Zhao Feng urged repeatedly.

Li Xuan nodded and continued to take things out. After a while, he had taken out all the bone ring.

As a result, he really took out a lot of good things.

There were all kinds of rare natural treasures, as well as more than a dozen martial arts secrets books, in addition to some bottles and jars, which looked like they were not serious things at first glance, and some of them exuded obvious evil aura.

Li Xuan had no use for these messy things, and he couldn't even tell what they were. He planned to hand them over directly to the Ministry of Internal Affairs for disposal.

Those secret books are quite valuable though. After being appraised by Master Ye, the most powerful one is a third-grade martial arts technique.

You should know that there are not many top three-grade martial arts techniques, and the one collected by the Western Region Fire Demon is not even included in the Thousand Star Pavilion.

Even most of the other skills were ones that Mr. Ye had never seen before.

However, many of them are magic techniques, which are difficult to practice. They can only be included in the bookshelf of Qianxing Pavilion as a reference material.

Among them, there is a set of skills that even Master Ye cannot figure out.

Just because they can't understand the words on it.

"It looks like the writing of some small country in the Western Regions."

Manager Shang said with a frown.

Zhao Feng on the side also nodded.

Both of them had served as general managers of the Imperial Household Department and had dabbled in some foreign scripts.

The common writing system in the desert and the Western Regions was not difficult for the two stewards, but they could not understand a single word in this book.

If it hadn't been placed together with other secret books, they would have doubted that this was not a martial arts secret book.

There are hundreds of small countries in the Western Regions, but most of them use the common language of the Western Regions, and the martial arts secrets there are also mostly recorded in this language.

Some small countries do have their own unique languages, but because the countries are too small, martial arts are difficult to develop, and most of the martial arts secrets in the Western Regions are also recorded in the common language of the Western Regions.

The most important reason for this is that the value of secret books recorded in minor languages will be much lower than martial arts of the same quality, after all, the audience is limited.

There is also a consensus among the hundreds of countries in the Western Regions that small countries do not have superior martial arts worthy of praise.

The good martial arts over there are all in the hands of the Holy Fire Sect, and the Holy Fire Sect uses the common language of the Western Regions.

The Holy Fire Sect was able to control hundreds of countries in the Western Regions because it had mastered the martial arts of the Western Regions.

The existence of the Holy Fire Cult is somewhat special. Since there is no big dynasty in the Western Regions, but only a number of small countries that act independently, the Holy Fire Cult has been able to become the real decision-maker in the Western Regions through its own doctrines.

The Holy Fire Cult is able to maintain such control over the Western Regions while continuing to maintain its status as one of the eight martial arts holy places. It is truly unique in the world.

"This book contains a lot of content. It might not necessarily be a martial arts secret manual."

Zhao Feng looked at the thickness of the book and said uncertainly.

Li Xuan suddenly remembered something, widened his eyes and said:
"I heard about it from the people of the Holy Fire Cult before." "The Western Region Fire Demon stole some of the Holy Fire Cult's magical skills."

"Then he mastered the magic skills, meow!"

After Li Xuan finished speaking, he silently turned his gaze to the book and swallowed his saliva with a gulp.

"Bring it to me and see!"

Mr. Ye waved his hand and the book fell directly into his hands.

Ye Lao couldn't understand the words, but he had his own way.

Mr. Ye carefully flipped through each page of the paper, as if checking some details.

Then, he picked up several other secret books found in the bone ring and compared them one by one.

"This book is indeed the best preserved, but some of the writing on it was written recently."

Mr. Ye had been in Qianxing Pavilion for an unknown period of time and was very familiar with the books, so he made a quick judgment.

"Uh, it can't be the diary of the Western Region Fire Demon." Zhao Feng guessed somewhat disappointedly.

"We'll know once it's translated. If it's really the Holy Fire Sect's magical power that Xuan mentioned, then we'll make a fortune."

Manager Shang said this, and the others' eyes also lit up.

Especially Mr. Ye, who rarely showed an uneasy look.

His expression never changed when he fought against the Western Fire Demon before.

Of course, Mr. Ye’s Taoist armor wrapped him completely, turning him into a shadow. It would be extremely difficult for others to see his expression.

"Send it to Tang Nu. Even if the Western Region Fire Demon uses a code word, he will be able to decipher it." Manager Shang ordered.

Hearing this name, Ye Lao asked one more question: "How has Tang Nu been doing recently?"

The two stewards smiled, and Zhao Feng replied, "Under Tang Nu's leadership, the Lijing Sect's performance has become increasingly impressive."

"The one most trusted by His Majesty right now is probably not our Ministry of Internal Affairs, but the Lijing Sect."

Li Xuan was surprised when he heard this:

"What is the Gate of Departure?"

"There is such a government office in the palace, meow?"

Li Xuan had been in the palace for such a long time and had a lot of dealings with Emperor Yongyuan and the Imperial Household Department, but he had never heard that there was such a department under Emperor Yongyuan.

"Ah Xuan, have you forgotten?"

Shang Zongguan smiled and reminded Li Xuan:

"Didn't you and I go out of the palace to the south of the city to carry out a mission before?"

"It was the time when we got the account book from the Siyun Grain Store. At that time, the account book was recorded in code. In the end, it was sent to Lijingmen and Tang Nu led people to decipher it."

"This Lijingmen is a new department established by His Majesty, specializing in deciphering secret codes and delivering letters."

As Manager Shang was talking, he suddenly stopped smiling.

Li Xuan was recalling this incident, but he did not notice the change in Manager Shang's expression at the first moment.

"Yes, I remember that happening."

"At that time, I came back with the chief monk to deliver the account books."

That was Li Xuan's first mission as the Imperial Secret Agent Ling Ling Miao. Naturally, he was deeply impressed and recalled it after a while.

"Godfather, what's wrong?"

Zhao Feng noticed that Manager Shang looked unhappy and asked with concern.

Li Xuan also looked over there in confusion.

"Tang Nu soon deciphered the code in the account book, and the report was sent to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. You and I have read it together."

Listening to what Shang said, Zhao Feng nodded and said, "That's true."

"Feng'er, do you still remember what was in the report?" asked Manager Shang.

"Of course I can't forget it." Zhao Feng snorted emotionally.

"Last year, there was a great disaster in the south. The government offices in various places were ordered to open their warehouses to provide disaster relief. As a result, officials at all levels enriched themselves and embezzled a lot of money. A lot of grain in the government warehouses even flowed into the market and was sold to the capital."

"If it weren't for this, we wouldn't have noticed a small food store hidden in a slum."

"We still have a great enemy, King Zheng, at the moment. Otherwise, our Ministry of Internal Affairs will kill many people for Your Majesty and make these corrupt officials pay the price."

When he said this, a cold light flashed in Zhao Feng's eyes.

The eunuchs in the palace were all of commoner origin, or descendants of criminals. In short, they had no good feelings towards officials.

"It's a pity that now is not the right time."

Zhao Feng couldn't help but sigh sadly.

If there were no great enemy like King Zheng, killing corrupt officials would have been the responsibility of their Ministry of Internal Affairs.

But the Ministry of Internal Affairs can’t even protect local spies now, let alone other things.

"Why did Godfather suddenly bring up this?"

"I remember that the account book that Tang Nu analyzed at that time recorded that most places had excess grain flowing out, but there were only a few places where no grain flowed out." Manager Shang said with a frown.

"Jiangnan Road!?"

Zhao Feng also recalled this detail and blurted out a place name.

Li Xuan didn't understand what was said, he just blinked and listened quietly.

"Yes, Jiangnan Road is one of them."

Chief Steward Shang affirmed Zhao Feng's answer.

Then, the two stewards fell into silence.

"What's wrong, meow?"

Li Xuan asked weakly.

"Master Ye, Ah Xuan."

"It seems that we cannot rest yet. Let's go to see His Majesty and report what happened tonight."

"I just thought of something and need to report it to His Majesty immediately."

Manager Shang said seriously.
