Xia He's hair was disheveled, and her skin, as white as mutton fat jade, was rosy and had a crystal-clear luster, making her seem to have been sublimated.

It took Xia He a while to come to her senses.

She looked up into Xingliu's mysterious eyes and asked softly, "I can't live without you anymore, so you should tell me about your origins, right?"

Xingliu naturally wouldn't hide such a small matter from his own people, so he briefly explained his background.

Xia He listened with great interest.

He was especially moved when he heard that Xingliu was the actual controller of the world, and couldn't help but provoke Xingliu again.

Although she wasn't the vain type, the sheer satisfaction she felt when she learned that her beloved was like a god was overflowing.

Xingliu, however, could not accept such a challenge and immediately responded to her.

"Well!"

With a captivating whisper, the battle resumed.

.......

After the absurd day ended, Xingliu went to visit Master Zhang Zhiwei early the next morning.

However, when he met this venerable old master, he couldn't help but show a hint of surprise.

Zhang Zhiwei had a black eye on his face, while his junior brother Tian Jinzhong also had a bruised and swollen face, looking quite disheveled.

As a professionally trained ninja, Xingliu should have been able to control his emotions well.

But the scene before him was so ridiculous that he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

After laughing, Xingliu realized his lapse in composure and quickly changed the subject, asking, "Master, what's wrong?"

Zhang Zhiwei didn't seem embarrassed at all, and said casually, "I had a little trouble with my Qi last night, and my face is swollen, but it's nothing serious, it'll be fine in a few days."

Upon hearing this, Xingliu couldn't help but burst into laughter again.

He looked at Tian Jinzhong's face and asked curiously, "Then what happened to your junior brother?"

Zhang Zhiwei stroked his chin and explained in a serious tone:

"Your cultivation is still shallow, and you do not understand its mysteries."

"When I made a mistake last night, Jinzhong happened to be next to me and was injured by my power, which is why he is like this. But it's nothing serious, he will be fine in a few days."

His words were righteous and eloquent, as if they were truly true.

However, Tian Jinzhong did not tolerate him and directly exposed his lie:

"Senior brother, your face is clearly swollen from being slapped by Lu Jin! So that's why you insisted on bringing me along yesterday, you were using me as a shield!"

"Why did you have to bring something that could kill Lu Jinshe? You're just asking for a beating!"

Tian Jinzhong's words were filled with helplessness and complaints.

Upon hearing this, Xingliu stared at the old master, wanting to see how he would step down after his lies were exposed.

However, the old Celestial Master lived up to his reputation, and calmly said:

"I truly am the best in this world. My skill is so profound that it has affected Jinzhong to the point of losing his mind and starting to talk nonsense."

Upon hearing this, Xingliu's gaze instantly shifted from watching a show to looking up to a role model.

He couldn't help but exclaim, "I'm truly impressed!"

Zhang Zhiwei chuckled and humbly replied, "Not at all."

Their laughter then filled the air, creating a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.

After playing around, the old celestial master took out the secret manual of the Tongtian Lu from his bosom and handed it to Xingliu.

As soon as Xingliu received it, the system notification sounded, making Xingliu realize that the old master had given him the real thing.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. Given the old master's character, if he really didn't want to give it to you, he would have refused you directly instead of making up a fake one to fool you.

Once Xingliu got his hands on this, there was no need for him to linger here any longer.

He needs to go to Biyou Village, find Ma Hongxian, and eventually follow him to find Qu Tong.

Now, all he needs to do is obtain the Divine Hundred Refinements and the Great Luo Cave Observation, and the system's tasks will be completed.

Divine Craftsmanship is manageable, but Great Luo Insight is a real headache.

No one in the entire original work uses this ability, or rather, the person who uses this ability has disappeared without a trace.

Therefore, Qu Tong became his key target.

In the original novel, Qu Tong's identity and background are shrouded in mystery, and she seems to know many unknown secrets.

Xingliu believes that as long as Qu Tong is found, the mystery of the Daluo Cave might be unveiled.

Chapter 228 The Celestial Master Descends the Mountain

With Xingliu's request completed, Zhang Zhiwei decided not to delay any longer.

That morning, he left Longhu Mountain and began his journey down the mountain.

The sudden departure of this Taoist master, who had not descended the mountain for a long time, coupled with the various events that occurred yesterday, has sent a chill through the entire martial arts world, making them sense that a storm is brewing.

Everyone understood that an earth-shattering battle was about to break out, and the Quanxing Organization was undoubtedly at the center of this storm.

Although everyone knew the truth, no one could stop Zhang Zhiwei's determination to wipe out Quanxing.

This centenarian, though seemingly kind and approachable, is actually a legendary figure who has weathered countless storms.

Deep within him lies an indescribable majesty and power.

The Quanxing organization's attack on Longhu Mountain is undoubtedly a blatant provocation.

Coupled with Tian Jinzhong's tragic death, the old master's murderous intent had reached its peak.

In this world, individual power is greatly amplified, so when faced with Zhang Zhiwei's wrath, the members of the Quanxing Organization can only fall one by one.

The ferocity of this battle far exceeded the description in the original work.

As the situation escalated, the Ten Elders also stepped in to offer their advice.

However, this time Zhang Zhiwei, having made up his mind, showed no mercy to anyone.

The anger in his heart could only be quelled by the blood of the Quanxing organization.

Lu Jinze wisely chose to back down.

He didn't want his embarrassing videotape to be leaked; the embarrassment and shame were unimaginable.

Besides, he figured it out too.

This time, Zhang Zhiwei is determined to do this. Rather than trying to persuade him in vain, it would be more practical to find the Quanxing Sect leader who killed Tian Jinzhong to take the blame.

The Quanxing Organization has always been despised by all major sects; its existence is like a garbage can for rubbish.

Now, as the situation escalates, more and more people are taking advantage of the organization's misfortune.

Many Quanxing members who had not committed any wrongdoing also publicly declared their withdrawal from Quanxing online in order to sever ties with the organization.

Seeing that Quanxing was on the verge of collapse, the acting leader Gong Qing resolutely stepped forward and chose to take responsibility.

His action undoubtedly brought this turmoil to a close.

After Gong Qing was killed by Zhang Zhiwei, the old Celestial Master did not pursue the matter further, but instead chose to return to Longhu Mountain.

With Gong Qing's death, the uproar that swept through the entire world of supernatural beings finally subsided.

Xingliu was indifferent to the turmoil and disturbances of the outside world. He was focused on his own goal and had successfully found traces of Biyou Village.

"So, your village chief isn't in the village right now?"

He asked, his gaze falling on Liu Wu Kui, who was bound by a sealing spell and suspended in mid-air.

Liu Wu Kui appeared unusually obedient at this moment. She nodded, a hint of helplessness in her voice: "Yes, so can you let me go now?"

She was bound by Xingliu's sealing technique, unable to move, and could only be manipulated by others.

Seeing Liu Wu Kui's embarrassed appearance, Xing Liu couldn't help but smile.

Because of Lü Liang's previous actions, Xing Liu has established a ruthless image in the eyes of everyone.

Therefore, when Liu Wu Kui learned that Xing Liu had come to see their village chief Ma Xian Hong, she did not hesitate to take action.

She mistakenly thought Xingliu was there to cause trouble, and coupled with her own belligerent nature, she charged at Xingliu without saying a word.

The result was an unexpected and crushing defeat. She was subdued by Xingliu almost instantly and had no power to fight back.

"Do you know where he went?" Xingliu continued to press.

Liu Wu Kui seemed hesitant, as if she was weighing whether she should tell Xing Liu the truth.

However, after seeing that Xingliu had no intention of harming her, she ultimately chose to believe that Xingliu really came to see Ma Hongxian to discuss something.

Therefore, Liu Wu Kui truthfully replied, "The village chief went out to look for the person who stole his magic weapon."

Upon hearing Liu Wu Kui's answer, Xing Liu immediately recalled this scene from the original novel.

This is the beginning of Chen Duo's story, and also the moment when Ma Hongxian first met Chen Duo.

Xingliu felt deep sympathy for Chen Duo, a girl with a tragic fate.

Her entire life was bound by the Gu Immortal Society, making her a tragic figure unable to integrate into normal society.

Chen Duo's distorted values ​​made her stand out from the crowd, as if she could never escape that loneliness and pain.

Of course, it's hard to say whether the existence of Nadutong Company also exacerbated Chen Duo's condition to some extent.

After all, because of her identity as the Gu-body Saint Child, Chen Duo herself is like a bomb that could explode at any moment.

Until an effective solution is found, she will be unable to experience and feel the world like a normal person.

Xingliu understands the company's position and choices, but he cannot accept this reality.

In his view, Chen Duo was not beyond redemption.

However, the company chose to abandon her because of her instability and potential danger, depriving her of any hope of redemption.

Perhaps in the company's eyes, the best way to deal with a bomb that could explode at any time is to make it disappear completely.

Therefore, Chen Duo was placed under house arrest in a dark and gloomy bunker until she became a temporary worker and gained limited freedom.

This freedom was fleeting, followed by an even crueler fate.
