Chapter 7 The Movements of the Heavenly Heart Sect
When he mentioned the words "Five Realms," Constable Chen paused for a moment, observing the expression of the new constable.
He really enjoys doing this, especially seeing the expressions on the faces of these newcomers; it gives him a tremendous sense of satisfaction.
After whetting everyone's appetite, Constable Chen continued speaking.
"The so-called five realms are the arms, the feet, and the head."
"Whenever true qi fills a limb, it makes that limb flow like a great river."
"When true energy fills the arms, feet, and head, that is the time when the five realms are perfected."
"At that time, the true qi will be as vast as the sea, freely available for use, and in terms of both strength and other aspects, it will be incomparably powerful."
Xu Bai's expression changed slightly.
He circulated his true qi, carefully sensing the changes in his right arm.
Compared to other positions, the right arm is indeed as vast as the sea, and can be used with ease.
Moreover, when using the Yin Wood Thunder Sword Technique with the right hand, it is more powerful than with the left hand.
Xu Bai thought to himself, "I should be at the peak of the first stage of the Transcendent Realm. If I go any further, I'll get another arm."
If he could gain some more lifespan, he could perfect the Yin Wood Thunder Sword Technique and perhaps even reach the second stage of the Transcendent Realm.
Having said this much, Officer Chen had covered most of the basic knowledge about cultivation.
He gripped the long sword at his waist and slowly spoke.
"Next, let's talk about another matter, which concerns the Celestial Heart Sect."
Upon hearing this, not only the new constables but also the veterans straightened their backs.
Constable Chen solemnly replied, "There are numerous sects surrounding Feng County, including both righteous and heretical ones."
"Among them, there are three heretical sects that are hidden dangers in Feng County: the Tianxin Sect, the Wushou Sect, and the Caiyue Sect."
"Among them, the Celestial Heart Sect is the most chaotic."
"They have dabbled in unorthodox practices such as paper dolls, corpse driving, and soul-reaping."
"The Tianxin Sect has harmed Master Liu this time, and Master Liu has a good reputation in Feng County. We must give the Liu family an explanation."
Many constables nodded in agreement.
At this moment, Constable Chen suddenly turned his gaze to Xu Bai.
"I recently received some information that is related to the Celestial Heart Sect..."
Xu Bai was listening intently.
When Constable Chen turned his gaze, he knew the important part was coming.
Officer Chen withdrew his gaze.
"According to an informant, the Celestial Heart Cult has recently been researching methods for creating walking corpses."
"They searched extensively for corpses, stirring up the resentment within them and turning them into something eerie."
"If they succeed, given how many people have died in Feng County, it will likely cause irreparable damage."
Xu Bai stroked his chin.
He thought of Master Liu, whom he had met not long ago, who seemed to be a strange walking corpse.
However, Xu Bai did not speak, feeling that Officer Chen had something to say.
As expected, Constable Chen paused slightly before continuing.
"In recent days, a large number of graves have been dug up in the mass graves in the north of the city."
"There are also many graves buried in the mountains. Everyone who goes to pay respects to their ancestors finds that their own graves have been dug up."
"I thought about it for a long time, and perhaps we can start with the graves."
"From now on, we will split into two teams. One team will be responsible for guarding the mass grave, and the other team... will secretly guard Manager Xu."
Upon hearing this, the many constables who had been listening intently suddenly froze.
Only then did they see that Xu Bai was standing in the corner waiting.
Standing next to Xu Bai, Zhao Erniu shrank back and hid behind Xu Bai, feeling like he was being stared at by so many officials for the first time.
Xu Bai nodded calmly.
He understood what Officer Chen meant.
Since the old Taoist priest came to him, things were bound to end badly.
Then perhaps we can find relevant clues from him.
Of course, he had no objection to Officer Chen's decision.
Chief Constable Chen looked at one of his trusted confidants: "You go and arrange the detailed rules. I have something to discuss with Manager Xu."
The constable quickly agreed.
Then, Constable Chen walked up to Xu Bai and pointed to a house: "Manager Xu, let's go inside and talk in detail."
Xu Bai nodded slightly and followed Constable Chen into the house.
"Snapped!"
The door closed.
The room was simply furnished.
Blue brick floor, whitewashed walls, so empty you could hear the echo of your own breathing.
A narrow bed in the corner, the edges of the reed mat worn raw.
A faded square table sat by the window, with a ceramic pot and two rough bowls on it.
Constable Chen poured a cup of tea and pushed it across the table in front of Xu Bai.
"I don't own a house in Feng County; I've always lived in the yamen (government office). Please don't mind, Manager Xu."
Xu Bai glanced at him and said, "Lord Chen, let's get down to business."
Officer Chen took a sip of tea.
"What I just said is clear to Manager Xu. I hope Manager Xu can grant me one request."
Xu Bai asked, "What is it?"
Officer Chen's eyes suddenly sharpened, and his grip on the teacup tightened abruptly.
"If you need any help from Manager Xu, please don't hesitate to lend a hand."
Xu Bai smiled slightly, raised his teacup, and held it up in the air.
"I have a grudge against the Heavenly Heart Sect, so I will naturally take action. Officer Chen, you can rest assured about that."
Officer Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
"After all, Manager Xu is not a government official, and I'm worried that he won't agree."
Xu Bai shook his head and said, "Lord Chen, you are overthinking it. If things go well, we will need to trouble Constable Chen to take care of Feng County in the future."
He agreed, and he had his reasons.
The Celestial Heart Sect had a grudge against him, that's one reason.
In addition, he was in Feng County, and having a good relationship with Constable Chen would be useful in the future.
Constable Chen raised his cup and clinked it with Xu Bai's.
"Now that this matter is settled, I will naturally not refuse to help you if you ever need my assistance in the future."
The two made up their minds.
Xu Bai stood up and said, "In that case, I'll head back to the shop first."
Now that the matter is settled, Xu Bai has no intention of staying any longer.
He needed to go back to the shop to think about what to do next.
He possesses the talisman of the Deceptive Longevity and feeds on the Deceptive Longevity.
Now that he is in such a chaotic world, he naturally wants to make the most of his cheat ability.
Seeing this, Officer Chen didn't waste any words and got up to see Xu Bai to the door.
Outside the door, Zhao Erniu stood in the corner, feeling extremely uncomfortable.
He was just an ordinary person, lacking Xu Bai's temperament and strength.
Therefore, standing in the yamen, he felt that even if he moved his hands or feet, he was afraid that the constables would arrest him.
After Xu Bai came out, he waved and said, "Go back."
Zhao Erniu immediately felt as if he had been granted a pardon and followed Xu Bai toward the outside of the yamen.
The gate is just a stone's throw away.
Just as the two were about to leave, a middle-aged man walked in through the door.
The middle-aged man was dressed in a constable's uniform, with a token hanging from his waist.
His eyes were like those of an eagle, and the tip of his nose was slightly curved, giving him a somewhat gloomy appearance.
The middle-aged man frowned slightly as he watched Xu Bai and Zhao Erniu leave.
He beckoned.
The constable beside him immediately stepped forward.
"Lord Zhao."
Officer Zhao said calmly, "That man just came out of Officer Chen's house. Check his identity."
The constable nodded slightly.
Officer Zhao continued, "I need to see a guest. Don't let anyone disturb me."
After saying that, Officer Zhao walked towards a room and pushed open the door to enter.
After the door closed, the view inside the room flashed by.
On the table sat a paper figure the size of a fist, its eyes flashing with an eerie light.
