Since childhood, I have devoted myself to spiritual practice and have not cared about other things. I have only recently entered the secular world.
I knew that Ming Kangwen was telling the truth.
Jiang He continued asking questions for a while, and his thoughts gradually became clear.
He probably knew what the Wuya Sect's ancestor, Mingli Ming Zhenren, wanted to do.
In the original novel, there was a mention of an evil method called the Truth-stealing and Longevity-extending Array.
Take children who have not yet started practicing, and after they have cultivated the first ray of spiritual energy, use their blood to sacrifice to prolong their life.
This strand of spiritual energy contains a trace of innate energy, and is the last strand since coming out of the mother's womb.
But it is extremely meager. Even with the help of secret techniques and a large number of children, it can only extend one's life by a few years.
And it can only be used once, after which this innate energy will no longer be useful.
This Master Ming would actually do such a cruel thing just to survive for a few more years.
It seems that he doesn't have much time left, so he doesn't mind destroying Wu Ya Sect's reputation over the years.
Jiang He secretly felt lucky that he came this time.
It never occurred to him that they were kidnapping children for blood sacrifices.
I'm afraid given the character of Wuya Clan, Jin'er won't be able to wait for him to come and pick her up.
Jiang He couldn't help but hug the little girl in his arms tightly. The girl looked up in confusion, and then stared at his face in a daze.
No wonder Liu Wan was able to plot against Master Ming. His life was in danger at this moment, and he was trapped in the formation.
And Xuan Huang Zhu happens to be specialized in this kind of blood sacrifice.

Chapter 55: Endless Gate
"There are two major factions in Wuya Sect. One is the Ming family, which is the descendant of the founder of Wuya Sect. The only Jindan Zhenren in the sect is the founder's only son. He founded Wuya Sect together with the founder. He is now over 400 years old."
"And my father, Ming Haicheng, is the most accomplished of the ancestors' many descendants. He was raised by the Immortal and therefore is the most trusted by the Immortal."
Jiang He listened to Ming Kangwen's explanation. The specific history of Wuyamen was only briefly mentioned in the original text.
After all, Lin Chi did not attack Wuya Sect, he was just chased and killed.
When he returned to Qingmu Castle, Wuya Clan had already been destroyed.
However, Jiang He is now going to face Wuya Sect directly, so naturally the more he knows, the better.
After seeing Jiang He's gesture, Ming Kangwen continued:
"The second is the lineage of the Great Elder. The Great Elder has completed his foundation building and is only one step away from the Golden Core stage. The relationship between the two lines is not very harmonious."
"Ever since the Immortal went into seclusion, the affairs of Wuya Sect have been taken over by the Great Elder. The Great Elder has worked hard to govern the city, and since taking office, he has issued a series of regulations to regulate Qingmu City."
It turns out that the Wuya Sect is not completely solid. It has just come into this world.
He knew that Wuya Sect was strict in governing its subordinates and would not even allow abuse.
This left some monks like Jiang He to resort to violence in the name of teaching their disciples.
However, the Wuya Sect's rampant kidnapping of disciples now conflicts with its previous philosophy.
Ming Kangwen further explained,
"In order to prolong his life, the Immortal had previously squandered the sect's resources and even forcibly seized the spiritual objects that the Great Elder had originally used to form his elixir."
"I know that Wuya Sect will certainly have many objections to the blood sacrifice to prolong life. But the real person is now on his last legs and doesn't want to waste his energy, so he performed the blood sacrifice in the underground cave of the Zhao family to prolong life, hiding it from others and preventing it from being disrupted. Few people know about this, so the real person gave it to Ming Haicheng to carry out, hiding it from others in the name of accepting a disciple to preserve the fire."
Jiang He was thoughtful. The previous Qingmu City did have strict management over the independent cultivators under its jurisdiction.
Murder and robbery are rare in daily life.
As for the Dragon and Tiger Gang that had attacked him previously, they were an exception. They had long been in cahoots with the Xuanming Sect.
Taking advantage of the special period, he helped Lin Chi to get revenge and wanted to silence him at the same time.
But this does not mean that this other branch is so good. After all, for the development of Wuya Sect, they also allowed the kidnapping of children.
This lineage of forces does not want Master Ming to live for a few more years. After all, the old man has done everything he can to survive and is even prepared to offer a blood sacrifice to prolong his life.
It is not difficult to imagine how he had previously squandered the resources of the Wuya Sect just to survive for a few years.
The great elder of the sect was also short of resources to form a pill, and his spiritual object for forming a pill was even taken away, which caused secret conflicts.
No wonder Master Ming was so cautious, fearing that his weak condition would be known to others.
As soon as he left Qingmu City, Jiang He paused. There was a long distance between Qingmu City and the four major markets.
If we go to Nanfang City first to send Jiner back, and then rush to Dongfang City.
It will undoubtedly take a long time, and Ming Haicheng is currently discussing matters on the main peak. If he returns to Ziyan Peak, it won't take long for him to discover that Ming Kangwen and Jin'er are both missing.
Time was extremely tight, so Jiang He rushed straight to Dongfang City.
Wait and see beforehand, and if it is really impossible, you have no choice but to run away.
During this time, Zhao Qiujun still didn't come back to his senses, muttering to himself:
"Impossible, Daddy would never do such a thing."
Ming Kangwen heard Zhao Qiujun's tone of disbelief and sneered:
"It is also thanks to the Zhao family's cover that the Great Elder and the others mistakenly believed that these children were handed over to the Zhao family for instruction. After all, the two foundation-building cultivators of your Zhao family were also disciples of the Wuya Sect. After all, it is a time of trouble now, and most of the cultivators in the sect are on guard against the Xuanming Sect."
The Great Elder's lineage didn't even think about the Truth-stealing and Longevity-extending Array. After all, this array was an evil Array of the Divine Sense Sect, one of the three major demon sects.
The Shen Gan Sect is far away in other domains, and few people in Zhu Ming Domain know about it. No one knows how this Ming Zhenren learned it.
Jiang He was in no mood to listen to the noise of the two people in the Xuanhuang Pearl, so he asked simply and clearly:
"Do you know what the real person's current situation is?"
Ming Kangwen thought for a while:
"I am a suspicious person by nature. I only trust Ming Haicheng. Whenever a child develops spiritual energy, Ming Haicheng immediately sends him to the Zhao family. Ming Haicheng did not tell me the specific details."
It seems that Ming Haicheng did not reveal everything to Ming Kangwen.
But his words also made Jiang He certain that Master Ming's condition was indeed not good, otherwise he would not be so anxious to this extent. Once a child cultivated spiritual energy, he would give it to him to save his life.
He even didn't dare reveal it to too many people for fear of any unexpected event. He was faced with internal and external troubles, with dissidents from the Wuya Sect within and the Xuanming Sect outside.
Half an hour later, Jiang He arrived in front of Zhao's house.
The words "Zhao Mansion" are inscribed on the gate tower, shining brightly. The hidden formation patterns and the solid and tall walls around it are faintly connected as one, giving it a majestic aura.
The Zhao family set up a second-level formation to protect the mansion, but once the formation was activated, the losses were staggering.
It has not been activated yet, but once it is activated, ordinary foundation-building cultivators will find it difficult to break the formation.
From time to time, there are guards patrolling outside, most of whom are in the Qi training stage. My predecessor was also one of them.
But now he has to become his enemy.
Butler Zhao was still standing at the door, but the injury on his face was no longer serious.
Jiang He called Zhao Qiujun again and asked her about the current situation of the Zhao family.
Even though he was extremely reluctant, Zhao Qiujun still said honestly:
"There are two foundation-building cultivators in my family. My father, who is now the head of the Zhao family, is in the early stage of foundation-building. The other one is my grandfather, who is in the middle stage of foundation-building."
Not to mention that there is also a Jindan-stage boss, he has to deal with all the small monsters in front of him with his head.
Lin Chi once had the help of Liu Wan, and he only had a Xuanhuang Pearl that had just been revived.
Besides, no matter how bad Master Ming's condition was, it was impossible for him to have no means to save his life.
And how could he deal with the trump card of a Jindan Zhenren?
When Jiang He was feeling extremely anxious, a cold little hand gently rubbed his temple.
This girl also knows this habit of hers.
Jiang He looked at the focused eyes of the girl in his arms, and the anger in his heart was immediately extinguished, and his mind became clear.
"I'm being too picky. There's no need to deal with Master Ming myself. I just need to expose his current actions to the public. This will be enough to anger all the independent cultivators. Even if their children weren't taken away, they definitely don't want a demon cultivator who sacrifices others' blood around them. Regardless of whether it's useful or not, I'll muddy the waters first. This will be enough to prevent Wuya Sect from taking care of me."
"Besides, doesn't the Great Elder have any other ideas? First, they already have an enemy, and second, he can naturally purge the Ming family and get their inheritance. You must know that he is only one step away from the Golden Elixir."

Sorry, there is only one chapter today. I’m stuck with the writer’s block and I’ve been very busy these days.
I'll see if I can make a quick transition in three chapters tomorrow.
Emmm, I don't know if you are interested in knowing (the process is very frustrating). A plot. If you are interested, I will take the time to make it as an extra compensation for the if line.
Chapter 56: Divine Inspiration (4000)
Zhao Qiujun's firm voice suddenly came from within the Xuanhuang Pearl:
"I don't believe it. Although my Zhao family cannot be called a kind family, we have never done anything wrong to others. I want to go find my father and ask for clarification!"
"Jiang He, don't forget that when you were working for the Zhao family, our Zhao family never let you down."
"If it were any other family, they would not compensate you."
But as he spoke later, his voice became smaller and smaller, as if he had lost confidence.
She herself was inside the Xuanhuang Pearl, so she knew that she could not lie to Jiang He. Similarly, Ming Kangwen would not lie to Jiang He either.
After all, their souls have been firmly controlled by the Xuanhuang Pearl.
Ming Kangwen secretly mocked in his heart, this senior sister has really become stupid from practicing.
If you don't believe it yourself, why bother saying it?
It will only make her image in Jiang He's mind even more incompetent. You know, spirit can be used in many places.
Such as alchemy, ten thousand souls banner, sacrificial utensils, etc.
He had understood this a long time ago, and had been trying to show himself off. After all, a good death is worse than a miserable life.
She pretended to sigh and said, "Senior Sister, you are so stupid. How are you going to contact the Patriarch of the Zhao Family now? And how can the Master risk contacting your father just because of your self-righteousness?"
"Sound transmission jade ring! I must get to the bottom of this."
Zhao Qiujun remembered that he still had the Jade Sound Transmission Technique in his storage bag, and he was so happy that his soul became a little brighter.
After the two of them were killed by Jiang He,
The storage bag on his body was naturally also put into Jiang He's bag.
But after hearing the second half of Ming Kangwen's words, her expression darkened. However, if she didn't find out the truth, she would die with regret.
This blood sacrifice of children is an utterly unscrupulous and evil act.
Even the brave and aggressive Zhu Mingyu was despised by everyone.
After that, he said in an awkward and unnatural voice:
"Jiang He, please. Please, please."
The thought of pleading with this middle-aged casual cultivator who looked down on her made her feel uncomfortable, even though she was already a dead soul in the pearl.
She was once a rare genius in Wuya Sect, and she had entered the eighth level of Qi training a few days ago at the age of only eighteen.
Jiang He was forty years old, and his cultivation was just as good as hers.
