Yun Shan did not stay at the inn, but instead rushed back overnight.

Although several walls of the inn were broken, the innkeeper had instructed his staff to find a way to repair them before he left.

Lin Qiao was somewhat worried about her father's condition.

But it's too late now, so we'll have to make plans for tomorrow.

In Lu Xuan's view, given Lin Haichao's strength and temperament, there shouldn't be any danger. He's probably just tied up with something for the time being.

Xu Jing was also busy with work and did not return to the inn that night.

Lu Xuan continued his cultivation on his own.

At the same time, he was also reflecting on the feeling of wielding the sword as easily as an arm when he used his mental power to activate the sword control technique today. It was quite good. If he could practice it more often, he could improve his strength as quickly as possible.

Cultivating mental strength also requires accumulation over time.

"By the way, I saw a scroll of pill formulas in He Donglin's storage ring earlier."

Lu Xuan had only glanced at it briefly before.

After all, it would be too troublesome to look at all these storage rings one by one.

Let's pick a few with real strength to look at.

He Donglin's storage ring was also quite large.

Lu Xuan carefully examined the contents of the ring.

Suddenly, Lu Xuan saw a scroll.

The entire scroll has a dark red color.

It looks quite valuable.

"Um?"

Lu Xuan took out the dark red scroll.

However, they discovered that there was a sealing formation on the scroll, similar to a seal.

Without the appropriate techniques, it is impossible to open the seal on this.

It's like it's locked; you need a key.

However, such a crude formation is nothing in front of Lu Xuan, a master of fourth-grade formations.

Especially now that they also possess mental power.

With a thought, Lu Xuan channeled his spiritual power into the formation, quickly finding the correct location within the complex and chaotic maze.

Bang!

There was a muffled thud.

The weak sealing power attached to the scroll was easily shattered.

broken.

At this moment, Lu Xuan unrolled the scroll in his hand.

"Huh... this is actually a recipe for a fourth-grade elixir!"

Lu Xuan glanced at the contents of the scroll, then took a deep breath, his eyes filled with astonishment.

The scroll in his hand was actually a prescription for elixirs.

This was something Lu Xuan hadn't expected.

"That's right. As the head of the External Affairs Hall, He Donglin is a figurehead. The Northern Spirit Pill Sect should naturally bring out something impressive to support the event."

"It seems that this fourth-grade pill formula is something that the Northern Spirit Pill Sect is using to maintain its prestige."

This single volume of fourth-grade pill formulas would cost at least several thousand spirit stones to buy.

Low-level prescriptions are actually publicly available.

Advanced prescriptions are scarce resources, because those who seek them at higher levels will inevitably reach that level. Since you need something so precious, you must pay the corresponding price!

Surprisingly, Lu Xuan actually stumbled upon an extra source of income.

"A fourth-grade elixir, the Seven Treasures Heavenly Dragon Pill."

"Refined using seven kinds of sixth-grade spiritual herbs..."

Lu Xuan began to study the pill formula in his hand, because Lu Xuan's current cultivation level had reached the point where he could try to refine fourth-grade pills.

If one could have fourth-grade pills to assist in one's daily cultivation, one's cultivation level would definitely advance by leaps and bounds.

Just as Lu Xuan was studying the pill formula in his hand in the inn.

The city lord's mansion has already taken note of today's events.

The news has spread like wildfire.

He Donglin was killed.

Moreover, this happened on the Chu family's territory.

This makes things complicated.

Immediately, the City Lord's Mansion also dispatched Xiao Yunshan to the Chu family to investigate the situation.

The Chu family and the city lord's mansion have a good relationship.

Now that the Chu family has made such a big move, and the City Lord's Mansion is still unaware of it, they sent Xiao Yunshan to inquire about the situation.

Xiao Yunshan naturally sought out Chu Lingsheng first upon his arrival.

And the situation was explained.

When Chu Lingsheng heard the news, he was first taken aback.

"What!?"

"Is that so!?"

"Let me go and ask the head of the family."

Chu Lingsheng was surprised, then said with a solemn expression, and walked towards the direction of the Chu family head. He was also worried that this was the family head's action, but it seemed a bit unreasonable to act at this critical juncture.

The Chu family members discussed the matter.

I had absolutely no idea about this.

This makes things even more complicated.

"If it wasn't your Chu family who did it? Then who else in Jinyuan City would have such audacity?"

Xiao Yunshan sat down with a group of high-ranking members of the Chu family for tea.

At the same time, all sorts of intelligence were flying around.

The entire Jinyuan City was like a pot of boiling water, teeming with activity.

"Master, the manager of the Six Blessings Inn has arrived."

The owner of Liufu Inn.

The place where the accident happened was the Liufu Inn.

When Chu Lingsheng first heard the news, he had already sent someone to fetch them, but judging by the time, it shouldn't have been this quick.

It was as if the manager of the Liufu Inn had arrived just as the person was sent out.

"So soon? Let him in quickly."

The Chu family also wanted to find out what happened today.

Information is flying everywhere outside, but it's all jumbled mess and completely unreliable. The quickest way is to find the manager of the Six Fortunes Inn and have him take a look.

"Greetings, Patriarch, Elders, and Lord Xiao."

The innkeeper bowed, surprised to see so many high-ranking members of the Chu family at once.

The head of the Chu family is named Chu Chen.

"Are you the manager of Liufu Inn? Tell me everything that happened today, without omitting a single detail."

Chu Chen raised his hand and said.

"Yes, Master."

The innkeeper of Liufu Inn immediately recounted the entire incident that had occurred that day in detail.

When they heard that the old man named Lu Xuan had killed several third-rank martial artists as easily as killing chickens, everyone gasped in shock.

"So, the one who's going to deal with He Donglin is this guy named Lu Xuan?"

Chu Chen, the head of the Chu family, frowned.

"Lu Xuan...that name..."

Chu Lingsheng chewed on the name, feeling a sense of familiarity. Suddenly, a glint of light flashed in his eyes.

"Isn't this Lu Xuan the old man who entered the blessed land with us before? I remember he was invited by Xiao'er. He's said to be seventy years old and has some skills in horse training."

Chu Lingsheng said.

"I remember now, there really is such a person."

Xiao Yunshan nodded, confirming Chu Lingsheng's statement.

"By the way, Elder Sheng, this is what Lu Xuan asked me to give you: 100,000 taels of silver as compensation, and this as well."

He also said that the Chu family didn't need to worry about what happened next; he would handle it himself.

The innkeeper handed over the 100,000 taels of silver notes and the mask.

Chu Lingsheng was initially curious as to why he was specifically asked to hand over the items.

But when Chu Lingsheng saw the mask that the shopkeeper took out...

He stood up in shock.

He held the mask in shock.

"This...this really came from Lu Xuan?"

Chu Lingsheng held the mask and said with great excitement.

"right……"

Everyone was puzzled; what was so surprising about a mask?

"I understand, you may leave."

"You don't need to go anywhere these next few days. Just stay at the inn and take good care of this senior. I will also arrange for some people to be on standby to prevent any unexpected situations from arising."

Chu Lingsheng said.

He directly gave orders to the innkeeper.

The shopkeeper was also puzzled, wondering why Elder Chu Lingsheng's emotions changed so drastically after he took out his mask.

"Yes."

The innkeeper withdrew.

After the shopkeeper left, everyone's eyes turned to Chu Lingsheng, waiting for his explanation.

Since Chu Lingsheng made this arrangement, there must be a reason for it.

"Master, Old Xiao... this mask... it's the one worn by the senior who saved me back then!"

Chu Lingsheng said excitedly.

Everyone knows what happened to Chu Lingsheng in the blessed land, and there is no secret about it.

Unexpectedly, that senior was actually Lu Xuan.

It was hidden too well.

"It was him!?"

Xiao Yunshan found it unbelievable.

"That's right. Besides him, who else could so easily cut down a third-rank expert like a cabbage?"

"Since this senior said we don't need to worry about it, then we'll remain inactive."

"To tell you the truth, our City Lord's Mansion has recently discovered some activity. The Northern Spirit Pill Sect has made contact with the forces of the Night Liang Kingdom."

Xiao Yunshan said.

This is a very important piece of news.

Even Xiao Yunshan was wondering if this Senior Lu Xuan was a spy sent down from above.

Otherwise, how could he have such strength?

And it just so happens that they've come up against the Northern Spirit Pill Sect again?

"Oh? There's such a thing... Alright, let's hold back and see how things go."

Chu Chen said.

"Although Senior Lu said that we don't need to get involved, we still made arrangements so that everyone below knows that if Senior Lu needs anything, we should arrange it for him immediately. We absolutely cannot be careless."

Chu Chen's expression was serious.

Many elders responded in unison.

"yes!"

Xiao Yunshan and Chu Lingsheng exchanged a glance.

"It seems this treasure hunt is going to be very exciting."

Outside Jinyuan City, there is a mountain peak shrouded in spiritual energy.

This is the location of the Northern Spirit Pill Sect's headquarters.

At this moment, in the main hall of the Northern Spirit Pill Sect.

An elderly man with gray hair sat in the main seat.

Although he looked radiant, one could see the blood and energy constantly dissipating from his skin.

The old man's vital energy was in a state of collapse.

In less than a year, all their vital energy will be exhausted, and that will be the time when they die of old age.

This person is indeed the sect leader of the Northern Spirit Pill Sect.

Bei Ling Zhenren.
