Chapter 139: Xunxian Tower, get spiritual energy!
Sha Wenlong looked at the head under his feet. The pupil of his only remaining left eye trembled and his brows wrinkled slightly.

Refining the internal organs and killing and transforming the energy?

This is a big realm, not a small realm!
The leader of Yuyang Sect is such a waste.

The issue is……

What about Wushen Cult?

Why didn't the Wushen followers hiding here take action?
Not only Huang Tianrong was killed.

After the reinforcements arrived, the rest of the sect's disciples were either killed on the spot by the chaos of swords or surrendered, not daring to resist at all.

"Mr. Chen Qian, you..."

Yu Song was even more unbelievable.

He originally thought something was going to happen, but it turned out to be Huang Tianrong who was in trouble…

What does it mean that qi and blood fight against strength?

After a long while, Sha Wenlong finally calmed down: "Master Chen Qian did a good job. The spy disciple exposed his identity and almost let them escape. Fortunately, Master Chen Qian killed the leader of Yuyang Sect by himself, so there were no serious consequences. You are the first to contribute in this mission."

"Thank you, General Sha."

Chen Sanshi clasped his fists, expressionless.

"We are not colluding with the Wushen Cult!"

A Yuyang Sect disciple roared at the top of his lungs: "You framed us just to take the Daluo River, and you guys take the money for yourselves!"

"Bastard thing!"

Yu Song kicked him twice, then took out a vajra and said, "Look, what is this? I found it in your leader's room!"

"..."

Several disciples looked at the vajra with disbelief on their faces.

This thing is the tool used by the Wushen followers to collect heart blood!
"impossible!"

"How could Master collude with the Wushen Cultists?"

"The deceased Third Senior Brother was his favorite disciple!"

"..."

"You still dare to be stubborn? You followed Huang Tianrong to escape, don't you feel guilty?!"

Yu Song gave the order: "Catch them all and put them in Liangzhou's death row to await their fate! Make the heads of Huang Tianrong and the other true disciples who died public, and make them all cooperate with the investigation. Anyone who dares to resist will be considered an accomplice of the Wushen Cult and will be killed without mercy!"

They left one after another.

Chen Sanshi looked at Huang Tianrong's headless body with a serious look, and did not move for a long time.

Not because I'm still angry.

But...

Before Huang Tianrong died, he saw a hint of black energy from this man!
It is exactly the same as the black aura that existed on Zhang Huaimin, the leader of the Seven Absolute Sect, but relatively speaking, it is much weaker.

The reason why Chen Sanshi did not capture him alive but killed him at the last moment was because he was worried that the other party would be like Zhang Huaimin and suddenly his realm would rise sharply, which would be troublesome.

After all, no one will help him, so he still has to take care of his own life.

"In the end, no Wushen followers showed up."

He was puzzled.

Moreover, Huang Tianrong does not seem to be lying. Could it be that he really did not collude with the Wushen Cult, but was wrongly accused? Then what is going on with the black energy on his body?

Ciyun Temple...

Chen Sanshi suddenly thought of a possibility.

Zhang Huaimin is at the Tongmai realm.

Then it is very likely that he has participated in a sermon meeting and drank a nourishing soup of unknown origin!
Could this be the source of the black energy in their bodies?

Not right either.

If there is black air in the elixir, the [Qi Observation Technique] should be able to detect it.

In short.

Next, we must be more careful at Ciyun Temple.

"General!"

Zhao Kang reported: "We have finished cleaning up, shall we go down the mountain?"

"Ah."

Chen Sanshi nodded and led his troops to the foot of the mountain to wait.

He is not responsible for subsequent matters.

After the reserve battalion took control of the Yuyang Sect, they launched a comprehensive search for three days and three nights, but failed to find more evidence of their collusion with the Wushen Sect. In the end, they concluded that only Huang Tianrong and a few true disciples were guilty.

But after torturing the surviving disciples for several days, they were still unable to get to the bottom of the matter until their death.

So the matter was left unresolved and came to an end.

Finally, it is about rewarding according to merit.

In the tent, Sha Wenlong announced to everyone: "General Chen Qian crossed the border to kill the enemy, which is the first merit of this time. He will be recorded as a second-class military merit and rewarded with three thousand taels of silver!"

"..."

Lu Shuhua and Xie Sishu looked embarrassed.

Five third-class military merits are equivalent to one second-class military merit.

There won’t be such a good opportunity to make merit next time. The A-class merit, which is above the B-class merit, can only be obtained by fighting in real battles.

It seems that they are destined to have no qualifications to compete for the position of Chief True Disciple.

Moreover, it is extremely difficult to refine the internal organs and transform the energy, even if it is the energy of a third-rate sect. I'm afraid that only Cao Fan can compete with this person.

"Mr. Chen Qian, congratulations!"

Lu Shuhua and Xie Sishu stepped forward to congratulate.

It means they have completely given up on competition.

"You shouldn't have thought about it!"

Bai Tingzhi said frankly.

After leaving, Chen Sanshi saw Yin Hanwen and Cao Fan practicing in the martial arts field again, and a strong murderous intent suddenly arose in his heart.

This blunder must have been instigated by someone named Yin.

Sha Wenlong is at the Xuanxiang realm, so it is difficult to kill him for the time being.

But Yin Hanwen is this dog!

Chen Sanshi didn't want him to hang around in front of him and disgust him anymore.

If I don't kill him, I don't know what kind of sneak attacks he will make in the future!
Is it that next to Yin Hanwen, there is an old slave who is at the Tongmai realm?

Chen Sanshi has not yet transformed his strength, and even if he does, it is impossible for him to kill Tongmai.

But what if you use magic?
Sword art!
After all, it is a spell used by immortals. Killing someone at the Tongmai realm should be no problem, right?

The only problem is that there is no Qingxuan Qi, or spiritual energy!

Xunxian Tower!
Have to go!
Chen Sanshi made up his mind and returned home covered in blood.

Siqin Mohua gradually got used to it and prepared hot water for him to bathe and change clothes.

Now that my wife is pregnant, I’d better be more careful so as not to scare the child.

……

The next morning.

Chen Sanshi had just finished washing up when Mo Hua came and said that someone outside wanted to see him.

I saw a young Taoist priest standing outside the mansion, who was naturally the Taoist priest from Ciyun Temple.

"Blessings and Immeasurable Heavenly Lord!"

The young Taoist priest bowed and said, "Donor, my master is going to give a sermon today and specially asked me to come and invite you."

He actually came to my door...

What do you mean?
Does that mean he has to drink the nourishing soup?

What is this nourishing soup used for?

"I see."

Chen Sanshi said calmly: "Please tell Master Qiu Mingzi that I will definitely go there as long as I have time."

You definitely can't refuse directly, otherwise the other party is likely to notice that something is wrong.

I just don’t know if the other party will be invited again if I don’t go, and if they will use force if I keep not going.

I feel really insecure without any weapon!
And recently...

The tracking begins again!

After Chen Sanshi went out, he noticed that the familiar aura appeared again.

"It seems that I need to find someone to deal with it."

Thinking so, he went out to buy a lot of medicinal herbs. He used his free time after returning home from work and practicing to make a lot of beauty ointments and rouge and powder, and then personally delivered them to the Governor's Mansion.

"Junior brother really knows how to care for women."

Rong Yanqiu smelled the fragrance of rouge and said, "These materials are not available on the market. You must have put a lot of thought into it. Are you planning to ask me to give it to Junior Sister Li?"

Chen Sanshi shook his head: "No, it's for you, Senior Sister."

"I?"

Rong Yanqiu reacted quickly and rolled his eyes: "Junior brother, just tell me what you want to say."

"Thank you, senior sister."

Chen Sanshi didn't hesitate to state what he wanted.

"Okay, wrap it up on me."

Rong Yanqiu handed the things to the servant and ordered, "Go and give these to Junior Sister Li and tell her that Master Chen made them for him personally."

After finishing the explanation.

Her expression suddenly became solemn and she followed with her weapon in hand.

Not long.

Sure enough, he discovered a figure following his junior fellow disciple stealthily.

"Shh-"

An iron whip suddenly swept out.

The figure was startled and also took out two short knives from behind to block, but he was injured and obviously no match for the opponent. After one blow, he staggered back and shouted: "Ninth Junior Sister, it's me, stop!"

"The third one?"

Rong Yanqiu's expression became even colder: "How long has it been since Junior Brother entered the sect? You guys are following him?"

"No, not stalking!"

Nie Yuan hurriedly explained: "I was just protecting my junior brother in secret!"

"Do you think I can trust you?"

Rong Yanqiu didn't waste any words. He swung the iron whip in his hand like a violent storm, and soon Nie Yuan's old injury relapsed and he spit out blood.

He knelt on one knee on the ground: "Ninth Junior Sister, are you going to kill your senior brother just because of a junior brother who just joined the sect?"

"I won't kill you, but..."

Rong Yanqiu snorted coldly: "You and the boss are no longer my brothers, come with me!"

She tied the man's neck with her iron whip and ran to Marquis Wuding's mansion as if she was leading a prisoner. She kicked the door open, alarming the eldest brother who was practicing martial arts inside.

"..."

Lu Ji felt a headache when he saw his third junior brother covered in blood. He could guess what happened without asking.

But he still said in a deep voice: "Ninth Junior Sister, isn't that too much?"

"Excessive?"

Rong Yanqiu thought it was ridiculous and kicked Nie Yuan away, saying sternly, "Boss, are you ashamed? You are so obsessed with your own junior brother. No wonder the fourth brother asked me to stay in Liangzhou for a while before leaving. It turned out that he was just to guard against an ungrateful person like you!"

"I...really just want to protect my junior brother in secret."

"Protect?"

Rong Yanqiu sat down in the middle of the courtyard and poured himself a glass of water. "How dare you say that? A few nights ago, when Junior Brother was on a mission and encountered a powerful enemy, why didn't you come to protect him?"

Lu Ji said calmly: "The battlefield is the battlefield, and peacetime is peacetime."

"Okay, I don't want to waste my time talking to you,"

Rong Yanqiu felt irritated: "From now on, if you dare to follow Chen Sanshi again, don't blame me for turning against you. I will turn against you at all costs. Do you understand?"

"it is good."

Lu Ji calmly agreed: "I promise you."

"I have no power in Liangzhou. This is your territory. There is someone you need to help me deal with."

Rong Yanqiu continued: "Sha Wenlong."

"Why? Because of the Yuyang Sect's incident?"

Lu Ji sat down opposite her: "It's not appropriate, it was just an accident."

"Accident?"

Rong Yanqiu sneered and said, "I checked. Sha Wenlong's family, starting from his father's generation, was once a disciple of the Yin family. You tell me this is an accident? If he was in my hands, he would have been cut into dozens of pieces by now."

"Junior sister, everything must have evidence..."

"I won't talk about evidence."

Rong Yanqiu said in a tough manner: "I will only give you one month. You can either remove him or move him to another part. Otherwise, I will do it myself."

"Ninth Junior Sister, don't go too far!"

Nie Yuan couldn't bear it any longer.

Lu Ji stopped her and said, "Junior sister, I swear to heaven that I have absolutely no intention of harming my junior brother's life. I can agree to do what you ask, but...

"Junior brother, how long has it been since you started to practice Buddhism? You are still protecting him like this. Is it necessary?"

"I'm not protecting him."

Rong Yanqiu spoke word by word: "I just trust Master."

……

Chen Sanshi stopped in front of the largest brothel in Hualiu Lane and looked at the large characters on the plaque - Hongxiulou.

This was the first time he had entered such a place since he came to this world.

"Sir, please come in."

Chen Sanshi had not even stayed at the door for two breaths when he was escorted in by two women in charge of welcoming guests. Unlike what he had imagined, inside a high-class brothel there were not only beauties on every side and drunkenness, but also all kinds of talent shows, especially musical instruments. One could feel the high level of the performances just by listening to them. Without eight or ten years of hard training, one could not play them well. In addition, many literati composed poems and couplets, which was a perfect combination of the vulgar and the elegant. No wonder the capital city often heard stories of the love-hate relationship between certain talented men and brothel girls.

"Son."

An old procuress asked respectfully, "Are you here to look for someone, or is this your first time?"

"Head back."

Chen Sanshi looked around.

The letter from Xunxianlou directly told him to come here, but did not say who to look for or how to look, leaving him clueless.

However, since the other party has made such arrangements, they will surely come to us on their own initiative.

"Sir, please take a seat."

The madam hurriedly found a seat for him and began to introduce the girls and the process, which was extremely complicated.

As soon as Chen Sanshi sat down, he had to participate in the "tea ordering" and pay ten taels of silver for the tea, which was actually equivalent to the minimum consumption for admission. If he liked any girl to accompany him, there would be another price.

Girls are also divided into different levels. The most expensive one is naturally the oiran. It is not enough to have money, you also need to recite poems and use poems to attract people's attention before you have a chance to spend the night with her.

“I know how to do this.”

Chen Sanshi could fill in a lot of poems here just by remembering them in his mind.

Too bad he wasn't in the mood.

I'm here to do business today.

Liangzhou City seems calm on the surface, but it is secretly full of crises. All time should be used to improve strength, and there is a time for lust.

I waited for half an hour, but there was no movement.

Chen Sanshi didn't spend a penny except for the ticket money, which made the brothel owner roll her eyes.

I didn't wait for Xunxian Tower, but I did wait for someone I know.

Sun Buqi, Yan Changqing, and several children of officials.

"Master Chen didn't even tell us in advance that he was coming. It would be great if we could come together."

Yan Changqing came over to toast: "I am a regular customer here. I can introduce you to a few rare girls. They are all top girls here. I guarantee you will be satisfied."

"Sanshi, why are you here too?"

Sun Buqi was surprised: "You were not this kind of person before!"

"..."

Chen Sanshi couldn't hide even if he wanted to, so he simply said, "I've been tired from practicing recently, so I came to play and relax."

Xunxian Tower is a secret, so it is naturally impossible to show it to the public.

"Sanshi, this is not good!"

Sun Buqi said, "My sister-in-law is still pregnant and waiting for you at home. Come on, let's go hunting in the mountains."

"?"

Chen Sanshi looked at him and felt something was wrong.

"Three stones!"

Sun Buqi said sternly, "So many people know you, aren't you afraid that the news will spread tomorrow and everyone will know about it?"

"I have nothing to fear."

Chen Sanshi was very calm.

The master hates lustful people, but he knows that we came here to find the Immortal Tower.

In this world, it is normal for men to visit brothels. Do they need to be afraid of people?

"you you……"

Sun Buqi was a little anxious, "Sanshi, my sister is also at your house taking care of my sister-in-law."

Sun Li?

Chen Sanshi reacted belatedly.

He has been feeling that everyone is a little weird for some time.

After the apprenticeship ceremony, the master even said that he would find a wife for him. Today, Ninth Senior Sister also mentioned whether the things were for Sun Li. Considering Sun Buqi's attitude, could it be that she wants to marry her daughter to him?
why?
In Chen Sanshi's opinion, this kind of thing requires mutual consent.

Is Senior Sister Sun willing?
Well, senior sister is very beautiful.

But he really hadn't thought about this aspect.

Again, I don’t have that thought at the moment.

"No, sit down."

Chen Sanshi did not leave: "We are just having a drink and listening to some music. We will leave in the evening."

"it is good."

Sun Buqi then sat down next to him and said, "We agreed not to stay overnight."

"But you, kid..."

Chen Sanshi teased, "A regular customer? I can't tell. I'll have to talk to Master about it later."

"Come on, Sanshi, I can't tolerate you being like this."

Sun Buqi said hurriedly: "If I don't report you, can't you just pretend you didn't see it?"

Chen Sanshi smiled and clinked glasses with him.

Until the hour of Xu, the brothel became increasingly lively.

Many talented men began to bid and compete for the right to spend the night with the top girls in Hongxiu Tower.

Among them, the courtesan Ningxiang was sold for a terrifying price of five thousand taels in one night. If some more silver was added, it would be enough to buy two black iron furnaces. In addition, Miss Ningxiang also asked for poetry. Only if the poetry was good enough and the money could be paid, would she be willing to give him a chance to meet her.

Please note that it is a meeting, not an overnight stay.

After meeting, whether you can spend the night depends on your performance.

I don't know how beautiful she is, to be able to fascinate these people like this, it must be an illusion...

Illusion!

Chen Sanshi has magic in his hands, so it makes sense that people from Xunxianlou have illusions, right? Could it be that this courtesan is from Xunxianlou?

"Miss Ningxiang, please meet me!"

As time went by, poems were written and sent to the attic, but no one was called up.

Many people were so anxious that they were running around in circles. Some drunken ones even wanted to rush up directly, but warriors who were responsible for maintaining order stopped them.

"Brother Chen!"

Yan Changqing bowed and said, "Why don't you try? If you can write a line like 'The spring breeze is blowing and the horses are galloping, and I can see all the flowers in Chang'an in one day', you will definitely win the favor of Miss Ningxiang. But I heard that anyone who has been to the building will be infatuated and can't recover for three days and three nights. The feeling is so great..."

I didn't expect that Tang Yingke left this poem before he left.

Chen Sanshi really doesn't want to be a plagiarist.

And if Ningxiang wasn’t in Xunxian Tower, wouldn’t it be a huge loss?
"Several gentlemen."

Just when he was hesitating whether to spend the money and even considering leaving, a familiar female voice sounded in his ears, like a clear spring.

The young woman in a warm yellow dress lowered her head to serve them wine and snacks, saying, "Please enjoy your meal~ Gentlemen, you can also write poems, maybe you can get my girl's favor~"

Before leaving, she cast a resentful look at Chen Sanshi and secretly made a face to express contempt. Looking at the faint firefly-like green energy in her body, who else could it be but the woman in black who broke into his house that day.

"..."

How could Chen Sanshi not see the hint?

I guess they are just waiting for him to write a poem, and even if what he writes is shit, they will still call him up.

'Does it have to be so complicated?'

Think about it.

In the end, Chen Sanshi called for pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and wrote down two lines of poetry from random memory, then gave them to the maid who was responsible for delivering poems to take upstairs.

as predicted.

The maid came back soon, bowed, and then made a gesture of invitation: "Sir, Miss Ningxiang wants to see you. Please pay the silver first, and then you can go upstairs with me."

Five thousand taels.

Chen Sanshi didn't have so much money, so he asked, "Brother Yan, can you lend me some money first?"

"And you said you couldn't write poetry!"

Yan Changqing was extremely curious, but he still took out the banknote: "Brother Chen, when you come back, you must tell us about your experience."

Under the envious gazes of everyone, Chen Sanshi followed the maid upstairs.

"Yan Changqing, how could you lend money to Sanshi!"

"Why can't I borrow it? Why, Brother Buqi, are you jealous about this?"

"No, he said he wouldn't stay overnight."

"What does it have to do with you whether I stay overnight or not?"

"..."

……

Hongxiu Tower has a total of six floors, and is definitely a landmark building even in Liangzhou City.

The higher you go up the six floors, the more expensive it becomes. From the fourth floor onwards, it is the place for the oirans.

The top floor was even more empty, with Ningxiang the only one living there.

"Hehe, you really dare to come!"

The girl dressed as a maid in a warm yellow dress pinched her waist and said angrily, "Aren't you afraid that my master will avenge me?"

Nonsense, if you wanted to report it, you would have done it long ago.

Chen Sanshi looked at the little girl and found that most of her wounds had healed, except for a shallow scar on her right wrist, and he didn't know why.

The medicine used by warriors is very effective. In theory, as long as it can cure the disease, it will not leave scars.

"What are you looking at? I kept it here on purpose!"

Zhao Zhao took the initiative to show the scar on his wrist, staring with clear eyes and said: "Keep it, I will not forget you, and when I can beat you, I will seek revenge on you!"

"Zhao Zhao, stop making trouble."

A lazy yet charming voice sounded.

Zhao Zhao, shut up and make way.

Before Chen Sanshi entered, he saw a green and mysterious aura through the door through the Qi-observing technique.

Compared with Sun Xiangzong, he is still much weaker, but compared with this girl named Zhaozhao, he seems very powerful.

Now that he was here, he had nothing to worry about. He pushed open the door and saw the true face of the courtesan who everyone was fighting for.

In the quiet boudoir, the aroma lingers.

The curtains flutter lightly, and the graceful figure is leisurely.

I saw a gorgeous woman in a lavender dress, leaning gently on the bed. Her cheeks were like peach blossoms in March, with an irresistible charm. In the hazy smoke, she looked even more captivating. If the doors and windows were opened, she would surely attract butterflies and bees.

It can be said that "her face is as charming as jade and her voice is as eloquent as flowers, and her graceful appearance is as fragrant as jade."

Chen Sanshi raised his hand and punched him.

A look of surprise flashed across the face of the purple-clothed woman, and then she jumped lightly to avoid the attack.

"boom--"

But the bed was not so lucky and was shattered to pieces in an instant.

"Son..."

The purple-clothed woman looked resentful: "Why are you doing this?"

Zhao Zhao accused from the side: "Master, I have said it long ago, he is very vicious, not the good man or hero as rumored by the outside world, he almost took my life last time."

"girl."

Chen Sanshi looked at the courtesan and said in a deep voice, "You sent people to break into my residence without warning, and now you are trying to confuse me right away. What is your intention?"

He noticed that after he entered the room, the Qingxuan Energy in the woman's body began to mobilize. Although he didn't know what she was going to do, he couldn't just stand there stupidly.

Ningxiang bit her lip and said aggrievedly, "I have no ill intentions. I just wanted to have some fun with the general first. Who knew that the general didn't know how to be gentle with women at all? He is indeed a man from the military."

"Ningxiang, right?"

Chen Sanshi asked straight to the point: "What do you want to see me about? Please tell me."

The woman in purple motioned to Zhaozhao to close the door, then walked gracefully to the table to serve tea and water.

She said, "General, do you know anything about our Xunxian Tower?"

"I have a rough idea."

Chen Sanshi didn't drink the tea: "Please get to the point, young lady."

"The general is really impatient."

Ningxiang felt bored, so she said directly: "Our Xunxianlou has been passed down for thousands of years, and our influence spreads all over the country, but we never get involved in the disputes of the mortal world, just to find the door to the fairyland one day."

"Fairy World..."

Chen Sanshi asked: "Does the fairyland really exist in the world?"

“Nature exists.”

Ningxiang said calmly, "Otherwise, how could we have immortal arts in Xunxian Tower? It's a pity that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has been exhausted for more than two thousand years. Even if there are immortal arts, it is difficult to practice them to the fullest."

Spiritual energy is exhausted.

Chen Sanshi knew it a long time ago, so he asked, "What do you want from me?"

"Now, in the whole world, only His Majesty the Emperor and Commander Sun, and perhaps the leader of the Wushen Cult, have achieved some success in the way of immortality.

Ningxiang said: "Among them, Supervisor Sun has the most contact with immortals, and you are his last disciple...

“Since you dare to come here, it must be the Supervisor’s approval.

“This further proves that the general is the only one who can inherit the immortal law of the governor, and he is also the one who has the opportunity to come into contact with immortal laws, immortals and even the door to the immortal world.

"I invite the general to come here with only one request.

"If one day, the general can step into the real fairyland, he can take me and my disciple with him."

Chen Sanshi said helplessly: "Miss Ningxiang, don't you think you are joking when you talk about this with me, a cultivator of internal organs?"

"Martial arts is martial arts, immortality is immortality, the two are incomparable."

The purple-clothed woman explained, “In terms of martial arts, I have only reached the Perfection of Internal Refining, but even if Tongmai stood in front of me, I could easily kill him.

“But Supervisor Sun is different, he entered the Dao through martial arts, which is the most difficult Dao.

"General's words...

"Can you let me touch you?"

Can refining the internal organs help you become an immortal?

Chen Sanshi remembered that his senior brother told him that he had two paths to choose from.

Doesn’t that mean we can also cultivate immortality now?

Unfortunately……

There is no technique for practicing Taoism. The master entered Taoism through martial arts, so it is highly likely that he does not have any technique, otherwise he would have taken it out.

Now I only have one spell in my hand, and I can’t practice it yet.

"Don't misunderstand me, General. I just want to see if you can take another path."

Ningxiang came over and said, "If possible, as long as the general nods and joins Xunxian Tower, and swears a blood oath, I will ask the owner of the tower to teach you the method of cultivating immortals."

"No need."

Chen Sanshi was not interested in joining another organization, and swearing a blood oath did not sound like a good idea.

"Miss Ningxiang."

He said, "You want me to help you for nothing?"

"Of course not."

Ningxiang took out a purse from her chest and said, "Don't look at me like that. Something this important should be kept close to you, right?"

"Master!"

Zhao Zhao said distressedly: "We only have this little spiritual sand left, do we really want to give it to this bastard?"

"Zhao Zhao, don't be rude."

Ningxiang said coquettishly: "You have to be sincere when doing business."

"Spiritual sand?"

Chen Sanshi reached out to take it, but the other party took his hand back.

"Hey~ General!"

Ningxiang lowered her head and turned her shoulders to one side, acting pitiful: "You took the things, so you must keep your word in the future. You are not allowed to take everything from me and then walk away."

"I promise you."

Chen Sanshi didn't hesitate for long.

I don’t know when things in the fairy world will happen.

But now, he saw with his own eyes the rich Qingxuan Qi emanating from the purse!
With the things inside, I will definitely be able to practice magic!
After getting the guarantee, Ningxiang handed the purse to the other party with confidence.

Chen Sanshi opened the purse and found firefly-colored sand and gravel inside. Judging from the material, it looked like crushed agate.

"This is spiritual sand."

The purple-clothed woman slowly explained, "When the world was first created in ancient times, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth was abundant, but for unknown reasons, it has been rapidly depleted in the past few thousand years. Until now, people can only practice martial arts through mixed energy.

“But if you want to practice the immortal way, you must have spiritual energy.

“So we can only absorb the spiritual energy from some ancient relics.

"It's the spiritual sand."

"I see."

Chen Sanshi accepted the purse.

"correct."

Ningxiang changed the subject and said, "By the way, there might be trouble happening in Liangzhou."

Chen Sanshi asked, "Miss, are you referring to the Wushen Cult?"

"Yes, not all."

Ningxiang opened the window and looked towards the direction of Luotian Mountains: "There is evil spirit deep in Luotian Mountains."

"Evil spirit?"

Chen Sanshi thought of the black mysterious energy rising into the sky that he had once seen in the mountains.

This kind of energy is called evil energy?

He asked, "What is the difference between the evil spirit that Miss Ningxiang mentioned and the spiritual energy that she mentioned earlier?"

"Spiritual energy and evil energy are both from the immortal world, but the latter is violent and not suitable for cultivation. It is generally not born naturally. We don't know what is going on with the evil energy in the Luotian Mountains, and it is getting stronger day by day, as if it is growing."

Ningxiang's eyes revealed worry: "The Wushen Cult has been killing disciples indiscriminately recently. I wonder if this is related to this matter. If it is, God knows what kind of chaos will happen in the end."

"If you're so worried..."

Chen Sanshi asked: "Why don't you go and take a look?"

"Of course I think so. Such a powerful evil spirit may contain some secrets about the fairy world. However, I don't have such great ability~"

Ningxiang closed the window: "The poisonous beasts affected by the evil spirit in the mountain are very powerful. My limited mana can't withstand such consumption. A warrior with a higher level may be able to do it."

A martial artist at a high level?
Chen Sanshi listened and thought, how come cultivating immortality is not as good as practicing martial arts.

"I have embarked on the path to immortality, but I have not yet achieved enlightenment and ascended to heaven. I am still a long way from becoming a true immortal."

Ningxiang seemed to see through his thoughts and explained, "Not to mention that the spiritual energy here is scarce, it is difficult to improve your cultivation. So, General, you must understand the value of the spiritual sand, and don't forget me in the future."

Chen Sanshi nodded.

It seems that the poisonous beast was born under the influence of evil spirits.

But so far, no one knows what happened that caused the evil spirit in Luotian Mountains to increase year by year.

Fairy Trace?

But this is a very distant thing. It may require a mysterious figure or even a martial saint to explore it.

The first task at hand is to transform the strength first, and then practice sword energy techniques to get rid of the troublesome Yin Hanwen.

"Thank you, young lady. Goodbye!"

Chen Sanshi said he was leaving.

"Hey, General, you can't leave."

Ningxiang hurriedly stopped him: "You spent five thousand taels of silver. What if someone outside finds out and reveals your identity? Rest for a night, it won't be too late to leave tomorrow. If you want to do something, you can do it."

"..."

When Chen Sanshi takes something that belongs to someone else, he should show some respect.

He did not refuse: "Does your Xianlou have to be in a place like this?"

"I have to live, too."

Ningxiang explained: "Do you think it doesn't cost money to seek immortals?"

Chen Sanshi didn't say anything more. He asked her to find him a flower spear for performing opera, and then he started practicing in the house.

He didn't dare to get involved with a woman of unknown origin, let alone have anything to do with magic. Even if his life was not in danger, there might be other traps.

The effect of Linghe ointment in the body is still there.

In recent times, his progress has not fallen behind.

[Kung Fu: Zhenguo Dragon Spear. Transformation of Strength (Not yet started)]

【Progress: 71/100】

Before they knew it, they had been practicing until dawn. Chen Sanshi looked at Ningxiang and Zhaozhao again. One of them was sleeping on a half-broken bed, while the other was lying on the table unconscious.

Before he left, he woke up Ningxiang and said, "Hey, give me back the silver."

That’s five thousand taels!

I risked my life to kill Huang Tianrong and got such a small reward. How could I stay here for nothing?

The matter of spiritual sand is another transaction and has nothing to do with silver.

"General, you want to get something for free?"

Ningxiang was furious: "The general broke the bed and he was not willing to pay a penny!"

"Woman, how did I touch you?"

Chen Sanshi urged, "I'm not in the mood to talk nonsense with you. I have to go back to the camp to report!"

"Why are you so fierce~"

Ningxiang seemed to be really scared and frantically looked for some silver bills.

Chen Sanshi put the banknotes in his arms and walked away.

After he left, he could faintly hear crying behind him.

"Oh, drama queen."

Chen Sanshi was too tired to complain, so he called Qianxun and headed straight for the military city.

After checking in, he received a message.

Sha Wenlong was transferred to the Tianlang Camp, and the deputy general of the reserve camp was replaced by a deputy general of the Yunzhong Camp. It was obvious that someone did it on purpose.

It's a good thing.

It is definitely a very scary thing that your boss is plotting to kill you, especially in the military, where many orders have to be obeyed, even if it means sending him to his death.

I just don't know who did it.

The most likely person could only be Senior Sister Nine.

Just as Senior Brother Fang said, Senior Sister Rong Yanqiu is reliable. I will really thank her later.

……

"You did it?"

On the martial arts field.

Cao Fan questioned, "Don't play dumb. I'm talking about the Yuyang Sect. Did you ask Sha Wenlong to set him up against a Huajin warrior so that you could use him as a tool to kill someone?"

"Sir, it's me..."

Yin Hanwen explained: "I just want to help His Royal Highness share his worries! Your life span is responsible for the great responsibility of the capital and thirty-six states of the Great Sheng Dynasty. How can you waste it just to fight for a temporary victory with such a person?

"Don't worry, Prince. He doesn't have any evidence. Sha Wenlong is our die-hard fan, so it's even more impossible for him to let it slip. At worst, we can slowly find an opportunity later."

"You go."

Cao Fan did not blame him, but said calmly: "Anyway, you did not participate in the selection of forwards, and currently you have no position in Liangzhou. I am worried that when the commander returns in the future, if he investigates this matter, you will not be able to explain it clearly."

"It's uncertain when Commander Sun will be back, and Prince, don't you trust me?"

Yin Hanwen said hurriedly: "Even if they find out about me, I am responsible for my actions alone!"

"Do you think that if the investigation is linked to you, I can escape responsibility?"

Cao Fan frowned: "Even if I defeat Chen Sanshi in the future, I still have to make a good impression on the commander, otherwise I won't get the true teachings."

"Prince, this is my fault!"

Yin Hanwen finally figured it out: "I'm leaving. I won't stay and cause trouble for the prince."

"Ah."

Cao Fan patted his shoulder and said, "Help your father more, so that you can help me in the future. When I have prestige in the Liangzhou army, I will invite you back."

Yin Hanwen agreed: "I will leave at the end of this month after my arrow wound heals."

Cao Fan didn't say anything else, but picked up the Green Dragon Crescent Blade and continued practicing martial arts.

Recently, he has almost reached the point of neglecting sleep and eating.

"Damn it!"

After Yin Hanwen walked away, he punched the training pole: "How can a guy named Chen practice internal organs to strengthen the killing power! How! If this continues, he will really cause huge troubles for the prince in the future. No, he must not be kept!
"Mr. Wei, you have to help me!"

He turned his gaze to the Tongmai warrior he worshipped: "Help me kill him!"

"Master, you can't do that."

Elder Wei advised, “Killing someone in Liangzhou City will definitely be investigated thoroughly.”

"Then we'll wait until we leave Liangzhou, and when we leave we'll announce it to the world, so that everyone knows we're leaving and we can clear ourselves of suspicion!"

"Then, Elder Wei, you turned back to kill people and put the blame on the Wushen Cult!

"Mr. Wei, it all depends on you!"

　I would like to recommend a book by Good Brothers. If you are interested, you can go and read it.
