Chapter 13 Jade Cauldron
Jiang Qiuge shook his head: "These monsters will never let go of any chance, they are unscrupulous and lawless!"
He sneered again and again, his eyes flashed with murderous intent.
Chu Zhiyuan's face darkened.
This is really the most ridiculous thing in the world. Royal disciples have become prey and become material for cultivation!
"I'm afraid we can't cut the grass and root it out, right?"
Thirty years ago, the imperial court and so many people failed to completely annihilate it, but now the Zhenwu Division alone can succeed?
Jiang Qiu and Ge Sen's cold expression turned helpless: "The Secretary is mobilizing all efforts to pursue the case to see if there are any demons from the Jade Cauldron Sect lurking. The prince must also strengthen the guard."
"Strengthen the guards..." Chu Zhiyuan grinned.
"Fourth Prince, how about sending two grandmasters from within the department to protect you secretly?"
"Thank you so much, Sir!" Chu Zhiyuan agreed without hesitation.
Prince Qing's Mansion is currently weak. Based on the current reputation of Prince Qing's Mansion, it is not difficult to recruit innate masters, but it is impossible to recruit grandmasters. It is crucial to add two grandmaster guards.
Jiang Qiuge's arrangement was timely.
This Jiang Qiuge was arrogant and didn't have much respect for the prince in his heart. This move was to avoid mistakes that would harm him, but it was a big help anyway.
"Is the Jade Cauldron Sect demon targeting all princes and princes this time, or just me?"
"...For now, it's only for the Crown Prince."
"Why?"
"This..." Jiang Qiuge shook his head.
"The easiest way to succeed is to pick the weak ones, right?" Chu Zhiyuan snorted.
Jiang Qiuge took a sip of tea and avoided the topic.
The fourth prince hit the nail on the head and revealed the truth with one word.
In the eyes of the Jade Cauldron Sect, Prince Qing's palace was in decline and his guards were weak, making him the easiest to succeed among the direct lineages.
If it weren't for the Fourth Prince's keen intuition and sense of induction, I might not have been able to escape this time.
Angry murderous intent surged in Chu Zhiyuan's heart, and he slowly said: "I wonder if these Jade Cauldron Sect disciples have tokens?"
Jiang Qiuge took out a thumb-sized jade tripod from his sleeve. It was exquisite and covered with chrysanthemum patterns.
Chu Zhiyuan frowned and took a look, but didn't reach out to take it.
The small jade cauldron looked warm and delicate on the outside, but in his eyes it was filled with a faint layer of mist and a faint fishy smell.
He can see under the clothes through his super-sense, but he never looks at it, especially never at a man, to avoid making himself sick.
So I didn't notice this little jade tripod before.
Jiang Qiuge put it on the table: "This is the token of the Jade Cauldron Sect disciples. Each one wears one around his neck."
Chu Zhiyuan nodded: "It looks beautiful. I'll try to find other Jade Cauldron Sect disciples."
Jiang Qiuge was startled.
Chu Zhiyuan smiled to himself: "I can faintly feel the breath of this jade tripod in the distance, maybe I can find them."
Jiang Qiuge's eyes suddenly brightened, and he hurriedly said: "Really?"
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Let's give it a try. I hope Chief Jiang will keep the secret for me."
Jiang Qiuge stood up and clasped his fists solemnly: "Your Majesty, don't worry!"
He bowed deeply: "My son's help, Jiang will be remembered in his heart."
Chu Zhiyuan clasped his fists: "This is also self-protection. If we don't eradicate them, there will really be no peace."
Jiang Qiuge nodded slowly: "Junior Sister Huang!"
"Master." The girl in green shirt standing quietly aside responded with a crisp voice.
Jiang Qiuge's eyes were shining brightly: "You are responsible for this matter. You must not borrow it from outsiders or leak it to others!"
"Yes." The girl in green shirt solemnly agreed.
Jiang Qiuge smiled again and said: "Your Majesty, Junior Sister Huang is our true disciple of Baiyun Sword Palace, and she has a photographic memory."
Chu Zhiyuan nodded: "This is the best,... without further ado, let's go."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Jiang Qiuge clasped his fists again and pushed Chu Zhiyuan to the stairs before stopping.
Chu Zhiyuan went down the stairs and left the restaurant.
Huang Shirong walked beside him, graceful and graceful, with a long sword on her waist, which made people sweat, worried that her thin waist would be crushed by the long sword.
Chu Zhiyuan walked along the main road.
Yujing has three north-south avenues and three east-west avenues, each about ten kilometers long. It is bustling with people day and night.
Several people shuttled through the crowd. Chu Zhiyuan stopped sometimes and pointed to a certain place: "Over there."
After a while, he stopped again and pointed: "This way."
……
When the morning light first appeared, Chu Zhiyuan's whole body was filled with white steam. He stopped outside the Nangong Gate, cupped his fists and said to Huang Shirong: "That's it, Miss Huang, see you later."
"Yes." Huang Shirong clasped her fists and said softly: "Little girl, please leave."
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and nodded.
He had a good impression of Huang Shirong, who was as elegant as a chrysanthemum.
He doesn't talk much, is soft on the outside and soft on the inside, elegant and calm. He is naturally perfect at a young age and is a true disciple of Baiyun Sword Palace, but he has no arrogance about his talent.
This kind of state of mind and cultivation is really rare. Seeing Huang Shirong curling away like a wisp of light smoke, Chu Zhiyuan turned his head and looked around. The ministers who came to attend the court ceremony looked over curiously.
Chu Zhiyuan nodded in greeting, turned around and entered the Nangong Gate.
……
In the following days, he went to Mingwu Palace in the early morning and returned to the palace in the evening. The weather was calm and he concentrated on practicing.
The Dragon Transformation Technique continues to advance toward the first level of perfection, and the meridians become wider and stronger.
When he was studying in the west hall, he saw a copy of "Zhu Xie Lu".
This "Zhu Xie Lu" records the deeds of some evil sects in the martial arts world, and mentions the Jade Cauldron Sect.
What the Jade Cauldron Sect pursues is longevity, and its fundamental approach is to strengthen itself through devouring, thereby creating a Jade Cauldron that is immortal and indestructible.
The name of the so-called Jade Cauldron of the Jade Cauldron Sect is that the human body is like a jade cauldron, which is immortal and indestructible, and can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to strengthen itself.
The mind method is domineering, and swallowing the essence can quickly increase the cultivation level and advance by leaps and bounds, but what hinders them is the method of breaking through the barriers.
After all, the devoured cultivation is not pure enough, and it is ten times more difficult to break through than other sect disciples.
Despite this, the Jade Cauldron Sect has become extremely tyrannical with this mentality.
It is easier for other sect disciples to clear the level, but the success rate is not high. Ten times the level of difficulty will not have much impact on the result.
What's more, the disciples of the Jade Cauldron Sect advance ten times faster than the disciples of other sects. This is both positive and negative, and the disciples of the Jade Cauldron Sect are stronger.
Chu Zhiyuan understood completely after reading it.
If you are used to advancing by leaps and bounds, you can't stand stagnation. Moreover, the Jade Cauldron Sect has top-notch concealment skills. The success rate of sneak attacks is high, and the chance of escaping after a sneak attack is high.
The combination of the despair of stagnation, the luck of being good at hiding, and the temptation to gain power through a quick breakthrough made them take risks to devour the essence of the royal family's children.
The purer the bloodline, the stronger the effect on the Jade Cauldron Sect.
As the crown prince of Prince Qing's Mansion, he is indeed the best target.
His face was gloomy.
As the heir to the throne, he is extremely rich and noble, but he still becomes a prey. The Jade Cauldron Sect must be destroyed!
It's a pity that even with the miraculous skills of Yuan Zong of the Taiqing Dynasty, the cultivation speed is more than ten or twenty times that of ordinary people, it still can't be achieved overnight, it has to be done step by step.
Thinking of this, he put down "Zhu Xie Lu" and went out to practice Qigong.
……
"Hey, Fourth Brother, it's rare to see you out practicing." Chu Mingxuan saw Chu Zhiyuan coming to the martial arts training ground and setting up the Dragon Subduing Stake, and came over curiously: "Aren't you immersed in studying?"
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said: "Uncle Eighteen, I had too many doubts in the house. Now I have almost clarified them. I must concentrate on practicing in the future."
"What are you practicing for?"
"The Dragon Subduing Sect's Dragon Transformation Technique."
"...couldn't it be the Jade Lock Golden Pass Jue?" Chu Mingxuan frowned and thought for a while, then asked uncertainly.
"Exactly."
"Hiss..." Chu Mingxuan took a breath of air.
Although the two of them spoke in a low voice so as not to disturb others' cultivation, they were still heard by the princes and princes.
As soon as they heard about the Jade Lock Golden Pass Technique, they all looked over.
"Fourth brother, do you really want to practice the Jade Lock Golden Pass Technique?"
Someone let go of his Ziyang stake and came over to ask.
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and nodded: "Let's practice and see. We'll tell you whether it succeeds or not."
"As expected of fourth brother."
"Fourth brother, don't waste time."
"It's impossible to practice."
……
Everyone untied the Ziyang stakes one after another, came closer, surrounded Chu Zhiyuan, and gathered together to discuss.
Some admired, some discouraged, and so on.
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said nothing.
He remembered that a star in his previous life once said that after becoming famous, he would be surrounded by good people, and this was also the case now.
Although the princes and princes were not hostile before, just curious, they also remained reserved and observant. Since the last time they won the competition, they have suddenly become more enthusiastic and friendly.
He enjoyed the feeling of stars circling the moon.
"Let's see if the Fourth can master it. Don't hit the south wall and don't look back. We were all like this at that time." Chu Mingxuan suddenly raised his voice: "I heard the news that our winter hunting this year will be in three days."
"Uncle Eighteen, isn't it New Year's Day?"
"This year is ahead of schedule. You guys haven't heard the news, so hurry up and get ready. Don't miss this opportunity!"
Chu Zhiyuan looked at Chu Mingxuan.
Chu Mingxuan chuckled and said: "Fourth, the only opportunity for our Mingwu Palace to gain military merit is the winter hunt once a year."
In spring, when all things are growing, it is not suitable to kill. Summer is too hot, and most animals hibernate in winter. Autumn is both a harvest and a chilling season, so it is suitable for hunting.
"Qiu Lie belongs to Father and the others, and our Mingwu Palace belongs to Dong Lie..." Chu Mingxuan explained the key points in detail.
