Immortal Martial Saint, starting with unlimited stat points

"Which side do you think it is?" Chen Wu then asked.

Zhou Chen blinked and looked into Chen Wu's eyes, saying, "I was originally a hunter in the mountains. Since entering the city, I have been learning martial arts at the Crimson Flame Martial Arts Academy and am not aware of the power struggles within the city."

Hong Lie was the head constable of the county government, and his martial arts skills had reached the peak of the Refining Realm.

Within the vast town of Xingde, there were not many people who could harm him.

As a county magistrate backed by the Chen family, Chen Wu was not a figurehead; if he wanted to investigate, he would surely find clues.

Now he asked Zhou Chen to make a deduction, but Zhou Chen was unwilling to get involved in this mess.

Seeing Zhou Chen's bewildered expression, Chen Wu couldn't tell if it was true or false.

He took a sip of tea and said with great interest, "It's the Li family that doesn't want me to wear this hat so comfortably."

Before he finished speaking, he turned his head and said, "But I really can't spare the time right now, and I don't have any reason to take action against them. The Wusheng Sect is a good scapegoat."

"So, are you willing to work for me and fight against the Wusheng Sect?"

Just as Zhou Chen was about to shake his head, Chen Wu clapped his hands, and two people walked over, carrying something in their hands.

"Some time ago, you were ambushed by Xiang Feng, and your crimson copper staff was destroyed. Now you're still using the crimson staff issued by the martial arts school, which is quite awkward to use."

Chen Wu pointed to the long pole the two men were carrying, which was clearly quite heavy.

"This Moonbeam Staff was purchased from the county town by someone I asked. No one below the Qi Opening Realm has the power to destroy it. Would you like to accept it?"

Zhou Chen's gaze shifted, and before him stood the Moonlight Staff, about sixteen feet long, which emitted a faint silver light in the dimly lit room, just like moonlight.

However, the Wusheng Sect is deeply rooted and its troublesome nature is probably even greater than that of the entire Li family.

Zhou Chen had no ambition to uphold justice and uphold the righteous path of the world. In his previous life, he was just a hardworking ox or horse that worked diligently to make a living.

Even after transmigrating to the present, he only wanted to rely on his cheat ability to focus on cultivation and continuously enjoy the feeling of becoming stronger.

If we're really talking about what we're after, it's to explore the essence of the Qiankun Realm and compete with its mythical figures.

As for such power struggles, he has no interest whatsoever as long as he doesn't provoke them.

After all, with the entire Qiankun Realm as his resource base, he doesn't even need to ask others for the cultivation resources that every martial artist in the world needs.

Seeing that Zhou Chen's gaze was hesitant and he did not seem to agree, Chen Wu gave a wink to the person beside him.

A few moments later, the man came over carrying a square tray, on which were displayed a variety of porcelain bottles.

"How about these twenty Leopard Embryo Tendon-Changing Pills refined by my Chen family alchemist? Each one is equivalent to half a month of cultivation for a Tendon-Changing martial artist."

Zhou Chen looked at the porcelain bottle, then at the Moonflower Staff, and finally his gaze settled on Chen Wu's capable face.

"I am willing to serve you like a dog or a horse."

With the Moonlight Staff in hand, a cool sensation spread from his palm. Zhou Chen casually twirled the staff and thanked Chen Wu again.

"Very well, then please have Zhou Wuqing lead some men to investigate. I, the magistrate, will await good news in the yamen." Chen Wu's tense expression relaxed upon hearing Zhou Chen's agreement.

"No need for any men, I can manage on my own." Zhou Chen accepted the Leopard Embryo Tendon-Changing Pill offered by someone else, politely declining Chen Wu's offer.

The Wusheng Sect is a powerful force, yet it is extremely well hidden. There might be spies among them right here at this very moment.

He possesses the Seventy-Two Transformations ability, which allows him to freely change his appearance and conceal his cultivation level, making it better for him to investigate alone.

"Patriarch, is this person worth your efforts to win him over? This Moonflower Staff cost a considerable amount of resources from the clan to obtain, and even Young Master Zhige has never used so many Leopard Embryo Tendon-Changing Pills." A deep, aged voice suddenly came from the shadows behind Chen Wu.

Chen Wu was not surprised at all upon hearing this, clearly aware of the old man's presence behind him.

He watched Zhou Chen's figure disappear outside the door, then slowly stood up, straightened his official robe, and looked at the mandarin duck patch embroidered on it.

"This person isn't worth it, but my clothes are."

"Moreover, this person's skill in tracking and finding traces is truly remarkable. If he hadn't complied just now, he wouldn't have been able to blame me for making him 'consider the bigger picture'."

-----------------

"Take care, Zhou Wuqing." The constable on duty outside the door recognized Zhou Chen and greeted him.

Zhou Chen then realized that he had already stepped out of the county government office.

He gripped the Moonlight Staff tightly, his palms and back already covered in cold sweat.

"Did this person just try to kill me?" Zhou Chen recalled the chill he had just felt and felt a chill run down his spine.

It took him a long while to calm down.

Even though he died twice in the Qiankun Realm, he would still be extremely nervous when facing life-or-death crises in the real world.

However, some people, when faced with life and death, will simply freeze in place.

Some people, however, will fight to the death.

Throughout history, countless moments recorded in history have stemmed from the courage to face life and death alone.

However, besides possessing the courage to fight alone in the final moment, Zhou Chen also holds a grudge!

Back at the martial arts school, Zhou Chen had his maid buy him many different kinds of clothes.

He was also planning how to find the hiding place of the Wusheng Sect.

He naturally understood Chen Wu's intentions: targeting the Li family without solid evidence would inevitably invite gossip.

But the Wusheng sect doesn't need that!

Even without the attack on Hong Lie, no one dared to question such a "politically correct" matter as the Wusheng Sect.

While the maid was out buying clothes, Zhou Chen took out a bottle of Leopard Fetus Tendon-Changing Pills that Chen Wu had given him.

As I uncorked the bottle, a strong herbal aroma filled my nostrils.

Zhou Chen poured out a crimson pill and swallowed it.

A few breaths later, the medicine dissolved in his stomach, and Zhou Chen felt warm all over, with a faint tingling sensation coming from all the major tendons in his body.

"Is one bottle comparable to half a month of arduous training in the Yi Jin Jing?" Zhou Chen sensed his physical condition and realized that he had not yet reached the limit of the medicine's effects.

Immediately, he swallowed another one.

Zhou Chen repeated this several times until the porcelain bottle was empty before he stopped.

At this moment, his face was as red as a jujube, and his skin was fiery red all over, just like Zhao Yan who was struck by the Crimson Flame Force that day.

However, he was brought to this state by the surging medicinal power within his body.

After a while, the effects of the medicine dissipated, and Zhou Chen's complexion returned to normal.

[Precision +0.1]

【Fine: 11.35】

Does a typical Yi Jin Jing martial artist's half-month of arduous training translate to a mere 0.1 in terms of spirit attribute?

Zhou Chen recalled the five Three Treasures relics he obtained last night by fishing near that altar, which were utterly overwhelming.

"Knock knock knock..."

"Senior Brother Zhou, the clothes have been bought."

A maid's voice came from outside the door announcing something.

Zhou Chen opened the door, took the clothes, and then changed into a set of moon-white casual clothes.

Immediately afterwards, he left the martial arts school empty-handed, without even taking any weapons with him.

Once they reached a secluded corner, Zhou Chen disappeared, and a plain-looking man in a green robe stepped out.

This man was Zhou Chen transformed using his Seventy-Two Transformations.

After changing his clothes and using his telepathic abilities, various auras from the surroundings flooded into his mind.

After that night of clearing out the monsters, their presence had almost completely dissipated.

Zhou Chen patiently strolled around the street, occasionally stopping at stalls to buy some food, looking just like a tourist.
