Chapter 232 Assassination
He came out of Chu Yi's Wanqingyuan, strolled out of the palace, and went to his new residence.
On Phoenix Avenue, I met Huang Shirong again, who was patrolling the streets. She was still so diligent after becoming a grandmaster.
Wen Qianqian and Xu Mengyu, dressed in white as snow, ran over and greeted them with smiles.
Huang Shirong also came over, clasped his fists in salute, and congratulated him on his retreat, and he must have made great progress again.
Chu Zhiyuan told him frankly.
Huang Shirong didn't think anything of it, she was already immune to his entry.
"Did Zhou Tianqi catch him?" Chu Zhiyuan asked.
He was curious as to why Zhou Tianqi would do such a treasonous thing as killing his master.
Is it grudges or obsession?
"...Not yet." Huang Shirong was helpless.
"Your Majesty, Senior Brother Zhou is still on the run. It's so amazing that he has escaped until now!" Wen Qianqian sighed with emotion.
"Junior sister Wen!" Huang Shirong glared at her.
Xu Mengyu also stared dissatisfied.
Wen Qianqian spat out her sweet tongue and said with a smile: "I originally thought that I would be arrested in two days. The law enforcement hall in the sect is not an ordinary person!"
"...It is indeed extraordinary." Xu Mengyu also admitted.
I don't know what kind of magic medicine my brother took this week. He seems to have unlimited strength. He has been trying his best to escape without running out of energy.
It is said that the masters of the Law Enforcement Hall have changed three batches and still cannot catch up with him.
Even the elders in the church were dispatched.
Still no use.
Senior Brother Zhou's Qing Gong suddenly increased and his strength continued to increase.
There is no trace of him, he can lock his aura, but he can't catch up with him.
"Didn't you use a secret technique?" Chu Zhiyuan frowned: "I have seen a secret technique that can inject one's own breath into birds and beasts to make the fake one look like the real one."
"...Is there such a secret technique?"
"I have seen with my own eyes that there is a true disciple of the Jade Cauldron Sect."
Wen Qianqian waved her little hands and said with a smile: "The secret technique of the Jade Cauldron Sect? It's impossible for Senior Brother Zhou to know it."
Xu Mengyu nodded.
Huang Shirong was thoughtful.
As soon as Chu Zhiyuan's eyes met hers, they tacitly thought of the same possibility.
"No." Huang Shirong shook his head gently: "Senior Brother Zhou is very talented and has advanced very quickly. He is now a Grandmaster and is expected to become an elder within the sect."
The perfect master is the elder within the sect.
If you can take the crucial step and become a great master, you will be the Supreme Elder.
"Geniuses advance very quickly in the innate realm, but when they reach the master realm, they will feel a huge gap."
"...Yes." Huang Shirong nodded.
She fully understands this.
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Is there anything unusual about his whereabouts? Has he been to the south recently?"
"Southern Xinjiang?"
"Yeah."
"..." Huang Shirong was silent.
Although Zhou Tianqi was not captured within the sect, the investigation into him had already begun.
As the youngest grandmaster in the sect, her reputation and status are much higher than those of ordinary disciples, and she is regarded as a future elder.
Therefore, the news within the sect is extremely well-informed.
She was fully aware of Zong Nei's current investigation into Zhou Tianqi.
"The Jade Cauldron Sect's territory should be Southern Xinjiang."
"Jade Cauldron Sect..." Huang Shirong was still in disbelief.
As one of the four major sects, Baiyun Sword Palace has exquisite techniques.
There is also the Zhenwu Division's way of obtaining the cultivation resources of the Imperial Tianbaosi Division.
This is what countless martial arts practitioners dream of.
Senior Brother Zhou also has excellent qualifications and has a bright future. He is expected to become an elder in the sect.
Why get involved with the Jade Cauldron Sect?
If you don’t want to take the Sunshine Avenue, do you have to go to the muddy and dangerous road?
How unthinkable is this? !
Chu Zhiyuan said: "This is just a possibility, but you might as well check carefully. There are always clues."
The practice of the Jade Cauldron Sect is different from normal, and the exercises can also lead to changes in one's mind.
These will all show up.
It’s impossible for people around you not to notice.
If you don't think about it, you may not feel relieved. After all, people's emotions always fluctuate.
With this assumption in mind, it will be easy to figure out the anomalies when you look at it.
"Okay!" Huang Shirong nodded slowly.
Chu Zhiyuan hugged his fists and left.
He could feel that the density of martial arts masters on the street was indeed decreasing.
The news that the negotiations between Da Jing and Da Zhen had ended has long been spread throughout the streets.
The Dazhen envoy was about to leave, and these martial arts masters felt that there was no point in staying, so they withdrew one after another. The Ministry of Rites and the Zhenwu Division breathed a sigh of relief, finally getting over this period.
This decision was extremely risky, but this time, all martial arts sects could see how powerful the Zhenwu Division was, and its deterrence was even greater.
This will help reduce the incidence of martial arts masters committing adultery and crimes, and the benefits are intangible.
……
Sitting on the couch in his new house, he looked at the main hall of Houtu Sect.
Nothing much has changed.
The Houtu Sect remains as usual.
The golden light of the Earth God statue has increased slightly, and it seems that the number of believers has increased again.
Chu Zhiyuan has always been curious about this statue of the Earth God, and has always been afraid and doubtful.
It is not the way of incense.
If so, it is a forbidden technique.
But it is not clear what the method of incense is, because it is a forbidden technique, not to mention Tongtian Pavilion, even Mingwu Palace has no record of it.
——
He dropped by the Ministry of Rites.
As soon as she entered the main room, Zou Fang took the tea offered by the clerk, glanced at it, and then offered it with both hands.
Before he could take the first sip after taking it, he saw Gao Lingfeng rushing to greet him: "Sir, the Dazhen envoy and the Dameng envoy were assassinated at the same time!"
Chu Zhiyuan put down the tea cup and frowned at him.
"Prince Cheng is in critical condition, His Highness the Ninth Prince is fine."
"It can't be the Secret Shadow Sect and the Jade Cauldron Sect, right?"
"It's probably them!"
"Good guys,...this is venting my anger on them, and taking revenge by disrupting the court's major events."
Chu Zhiyuan picked up the tea cup and took a sip: "The critical condition means that he cannot die, but His Highness the Ninth Prince is actually fine?"
"His Royal Highness Ninth was astute and sensed the approaching danger in advance and avoided a fatal blow."
"Feng Xi Jiutian Jue is indeed impressive." Chu Zhiyuan nodded slowly.
Seeing that Chu Zhiyuan was speaking slowly and unhurriedly, Gao Lingfeng said: "Your Majesty, would you like to pay a visit?"
They were assassinated in Yujing City. As the Ministry of Rites, they should still visit them.
Prince Zhuang's status was too high, so Chu Zhiyuan was the most suitable person to serve as Zuo Shilang.
"Okay." Chu Zhiyuan nodded.
——
Sifang Pavilion
Dazhen Mission
Chu Zhiyuan came to a courtyard and saw Cheng Tianfeng standing in the center of the courtyard practicing kung fu.
"Pfft!"
Chu Zhiyuan couldn't help but laugh.
Cheng Tianfeng's face and arms were smeared with dark ointment, leaving only his eyes exposed and a mouth with snow-white teeth.
This was in sharp contrast to his original handsome appearance, and he couldn't help it.
Cheng Tianfeng glared at him.
Chu Zhiyuan hurriedly waved his hands and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, Brother Cheng, I'm sorry, I really can't help but laugh."
Cheng Tianfeng put away his martial art and said coldly: "Are you happy to see me like this?"
"Actually, I'm here to congratulate Brother Cheng for surviving a near-death situation. If you survive a catastrophe, you will be blessed later!"
"Bullshit Houfu!" Cheng Tianfeng couldn't help but cursed: "You are so incompetent, you let the evil sect sneak in and assassinate me!"
Chu Zhiyuan looked apologetic and clasped his fists.
Cheng Tianfeng said: "The two of them suddenly exploded, and they were both destroyed. I was defenseless!"
"Unprepared?" Chu Zhiyuan said: "There should be guards around at that time, right?...Are there no guards around? Where is Mr. Mo?"
"...Anyway, your guards are too lax!"
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said: "The Ministry of Rites received the message but it is unclear what the situation is. Brother Cheng, there are no outsiders here. Just tell me."
"There's nothing to say!" Cheng Tianfeng snorted: "I don't want to mention that unbearable experience again!"
Chu Zhiyuan stared at him.
Cheng Tianfeng turned his eyes and looked away.
The blue sky is as clear as water, and two white clouds seem to be embedded in it, motionless.
Chu Zhiyuan thought for a moment and smiled: "Brother Cheng, did those two evil sect masters come to you disguised as beauties? Are they doing their old habits again?"
"What old problem!" Cheng Tianfeng said angrily: "No matter what I do, the evil sects will assassinate me. Is it different with the Ninth Princess?"
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Isn't His Highness the Ninth Prince in Linglong Library?"
"They are ambushing on the street, making them even more difficult to guard against."
"Then you are in the house. No wonder you were injured so badly and couldn't escape... you really have a treasure to protect yourself."
He guessed the situation at once.
The two evil sect monsters transformed into two beauties and entered his house, and suddenly used the "Death Together" technique.
Under such circumstances, Cheng Tianfeng could still save his life because he was definitely protected by treasures.
