Huangxiu

Chapter 27 Neglect
The door of Houtu Hall was wide open, and four young believers in brown shirts stood on both sides, bowing respectfully to welcome the bustling crowd.

Chu Zhiyuan looked down at his official robe and did not go in.

After lunch and a short rest, he left Prince Qing's Mansion and came to Houtu Hall in an ordinary brocade robe.

Several palace guards were waiting outside, and Guo Chi and Zou Fang accompanied him into Houtu Hall.

Even though he found out that there was no Grandmaster in Houtu Hall, he did not take it lightly.

After entering the door, there is an open yard, which is larger than you can imagine. It is as big as a football field, paved with blue bricks and spotless.

There is a main hall and two side halls in the north, with a heavy and solemn architectural style.

There is a statue of the God of Earth in the main hall, and statues of the Goddess of Earth in the side halls. The two Goddesses of Earth have different appearances.

Dozens of people were queuing up and slowly entering the main hall, and there were also people kneeling and bowing in the side halls on both sides.

He followed the crowd into the main hall.

The Earth Lord was three meters tall, with his slender fingers clasped in hand seals. He had a thin face, long flowing beard, and a high crown and wide robe. He did not dress like the people of the Da Jing Dynasty, but looked more ancient.

There is an incense burner in front of the statue of Dizun. Next to it is a handsome young man who is holding incense and handing it to the believers one by one with a solemn and respectful expression.

Chu Zhiyuan stepped forward, took the incense from the young man, inserted it into the incense burner, and bowed.

He had super senses and didn't notice anything unusual.

The Earth Zun and the two Earth Mother statues are nothing special, just three clay figures, but with some special paint.

He was quite surprised that the handsome young man in front of him was actually at the second level of Xiantian.

This young man is about the same age as himself and has a similar level of cultivation.

What he practiced was the Small Purple Yang Art, and later the Great Purple Yang Art, which was a royal secret and the most advanced miraculous skill in the world.

He still has super senses and has practiced many extraordinary skills in the Mingwu Palace. Although the Jade Lock and Golden Gate Technique delayed him, sharpening the knife does not delay chopping wood, so it won't delay much time.

This is the third level of the innate realm.

Although this young man is not as amazing as Huang Shirong, he can also be called a martial arts genius.

"what!"

Just as Chu Zhiyuan turned around to leave, he heard several exclamations from the side.

An old man suddenly fell down, and the handsome young man stepped forward and supported him.

The old man was already pale and out of breath, and when he was trying to lower his head, he lost his balance and was about to fall, but the handsome young man stepped forward and supported him.

"father!"

"father!"

Two honest-looking young men hurried forward to support the old man.

The handsome young man said in a deep voice: "Don't touch him, let me do it!"

"Young Master..."

"Don't make noise! ​​Just be patient!" the handsome young man said in a deep voice.

He slowly put the old man on the ground, turned around and waved his hand: "Everyone stand back!"

Everyone stepped back and made room.

Chu Zhiyuan stood in the crowd and looked at the handsome young man and the old man.

The old man's breath was weakening rapidly. It looked like he had a heart problem, possibly a myocardial infarction. If any further delay occurred, he would die.

He was just about to make a move in secret, as he couldn't just watch someone die.

But the handsome young man quickly tapped the old man's chest with a few fingers, then stood up, clasped his hands together, and muttered something solemnly.

This made Chu Zhiyuan see the shadow of Zhu Yishan, the high-ranking elder of the Houtu Sect.

This is about to cast a spell.

With super sense, the ordinary statue of the Earth God suddenly lit up.

Chu Zhiyuan was surprised.

This statue of the Earth God actually has some mysterious secrets that have been hidden from me!

The statue of the Earth God suddenly emitted a ball of soft light, which landed on the handsome young man's hands as he formed a seal.

He made seals with his hands and tapped the old man lightly.

"Hmm..." The old man slowly opened his eyes.

"Dad? Dad!"

"What are you arguing about? I'm not dead yet!"

The old man scolded subconsciously with a confused look in his eyes.

His eyes gradually became clear, and he quickly turned over and sat up, then threw himself forward and knelt down, but was lifted up by the handsome young man.

The handsome young man spread out his hand seals and waved his hands, saying, "Don't do this, old man. The Earth Lord will protect you!"

The old man nodded vigorously: "The Earth Lord has appeared, thank you, Young Master! Thank you, Young Master!"

My life is saved.

My body was filled with a warm feeling, especially my heart, which felt like it was being roasted by a fire. I felt so comfortable that I wanted to fall asleep.

The original weakness disappeared without a trace, it was amazing! He is worthy of being the young leader!

It is indeed the reincarnation of the Earth Lord!

“Infinite Earth Honored One!” The handsome young man bowed solemnly.

"Infinite Earth Lord!"

"Infinite Earth Lord!"

……

Everyone bowed their heads and shouted loudly.

……

Chu Zhiyuan stood in the crowd, looking amazed.

This is the power borrowed from the statue, a power different from true Qi, and its effect is as divine.

But this is considered the power of incense, right? But it is tabooed by the court.

An invisible force surged from his body, and he pushed the others aside and came forward to help the young man lift the old man up.

With super sense, he could see the old man's body clearly in an instant and sensed that strange power.

The mysterious power was rapidly repairing the old man's heart, like a downpour of sweet rain on a dry land, with amazing effects.

He marveled inwardly.

This power is miraculous in repairing the body, even better than the Dragon Transformation Technique.

It is even better than any healing method in Mingwu Palace.

It is true that there is nothing strange in the world.

When he was reading the files of Houtu Sect, the files specifically mentioned its young leader Feng Zhihao.

Feng Zhihao is a genius in cultivation. It is rumored that he is the reincarnation of the Lord of Earth. He has a very high reputation in Houtu Sect and even has the potential to replace the Sect Leader.

Now it seems that Feng Zhihao really has extraordinary achievements and has shown himself to be a great man. No wonder he has such a high reputation.

Feng Zhihao was calm and solemn. He bowed and asked everyone to disperse so as not to delay everyone from worshiping the Earth Lord.

His words are very effective.

Everyone bowed to the Earth Lord and then saluted him before leaving.

Chu Zhiyuan left the main hall and went to the Earth Mother Temple next to it to pay his respects. No matter what, it was always right to pay respects to the statue when seeing it.

He was originally an atheist, but after experiencing reincarnation, he changed his mind.

After bowing around, he looked at Zou Fang.

Zou Fang nodded slightly, found a member of the Houtu Sect, whispered a few words to him, and then the member looked at Chu Zhiyuan.

Chu Zhiyuan paced in the courtyard with his hands behind his back.

The believer entered the main hall and after a moment, came up to Zou Fang and whispered a few words.

After hearing this, Zou Fang frowned slightly, came to Chu Zhiyuan and whispered, "We must first receive the believers, and then come to see you after they leave."

Chu Zhiyuan raised his sword-like eyebrows and smiled.

"Young Master, let's go!" Guo Chi's face was gloomy, like an angry black bear, ready to explode at any time.

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head and said, "Then wait."

Guo Chi widened his eyes in confusion.

He didn't understand how Feng Zhihao dared to be so arrogant, nor did he understand why Chu Zhiyuan didn't leave.

How can a prince endure such humiliation?

Chu Zhiyuan said: "This young leader is indeed a character, we need to get to know him."

"Another arrogant guy!" Guo Chi glared towards the main hall angrily.

Chu Zhiyuan paced in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, taking the opportunity to practice. His super sense continued to spread, covering an area of ​​thirty feet.

The person he was focusing on was Feng Zhihao.

The file did not say what kind of personality Feng Zhihao had, but I didn't expect him to be so unruly.

Be it his official position or his status as a crown prince, neither is something that the Houtu Sect can neglect, yet he dares to do so.

Naturally, he is relying on something, or he is harboring resentment.

The root cause was the Thirteenth Prince’s concubine, who was his sister.

The thirteenth prince, Prince Huai, is Chu Zhichuan's father.

The Qing Palace is certainly no match for the Huai Palace. In Feng Zhihao's opinion, the prince of the Qing Palace has no way to deal with him.

Chu Zhiyuan observed Feng Zhihao's subtle movements and changes in his breath.

Feng Zhihao held incense to send off the believers. His breathing was steady and he was not practicing any exercises. His expression was solemn and dignified, as if he was doing something sacred.

Chu Zhiyuan watched for a while and vaguely guessed that this was Feng Zhihao refining his mind?

Purifying the mind and concentrating the will, is this a method of cultivation in Hou Tu Sect?
After watching for a while, his heart also calmed down, and the effect was comparable to holding the Qingying Sword.
