Chapter 275 Attacked

Chapter 275 Attacked
In the royal study.

Emperor Ning looked at Chen Xian and said, "I have finished reading the file. Is what the evil monk said true?"

"Your Majesty, I think it is true. The evil monk has been imprisoned for five hundred years. Even if there is hatred between him and Gu Qingyang, he can ask the Demon Suppression Bureau to help get rid of Gu Qingyang in the form of conditions, and then tell us the whereabouts of the Buddha's Heart Relic."

"But he didn't. Instead, he said that the Buddha's Heart Relic is in Gu Qingyang's hands. I guess it's almost right."

"There are also the Jianghu sects and noble families that the evil monk and Gu Qingyang have jointly destroyed. I will secretly investigate it. As long as it is true, Gu Qingyang is a ruthless villain. If such a person is left in the Tianwu Sect, he will sooner or later bring disaster to the world. He deserves to be killed!"

Chen Xian said calmly.

Hearing this, Emperor Ning's face was solemn. "If it is true, this Gu Qingyang does deserve to die, but he is the deputy leader of the Tianwu Sect. He is a martial arts sect and is not under the jurisdiction of the court. Even if he is killed, it must be according to the rules of the martial arts world."

"Your Majesty, can't the Demon Suppression Division control the Tianwu Sect?" Chen Xian asked.

Emperor Ning sighed: "The Tianwu Sect was founded by Immortal Lu. The sect has a deep foundation and many powerful people. How can I manage it?"

Chen Xian said: "Killing Gu Qingyang alone is not like destroying the Tianwu Sect, so why not? Are you going to watch Gu Qingyang do evil?"

Emperor Ning frowned slightly and said, "You go back to Fengtian first and secretly check whether what the evil monk said is true. If it is true, then find a way to get rid of Gu Qingyang."

"He is a Martial Saint, the best under the Martial Emperor. I have seen him before, and his combat power is very strong."

"You should be careful when you investigate him secretly."

"I will be careful." Chen Xian nodded.

"Tell me, what reward do you want?" Emperor Ning smiled slightly.

Chen Xian hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, I don't want any reward. I heard that there is a copy of the [Black Turtle Secret Scroll] in the Martial Arts Pavilion, and I want to take a look at it."

"The Black Turtle Secret Scroll?" Emperor Ning frowned slightly. There were too many martial arts secrets manuals in the Martial Arts Pavilion, and many of them were incomplete, so he was not very clear.

"Just a secret scroll?" He looked at Chen Xian.

"I just want a secret scroll!" Chen Xian nodded.

Emperor Ning said: "I will send someone to get it immediately."

"Then I'll take my leave." Chen Xian bowed.

"Wait a moment."

Emperor Ning said this and took out a animal skin scroll from the drawer.

The animal skin scroll was exactly the incomplete map of the immortal's tomb that Ning Chen had presented to Emperor Ning before.

"Hold this, and remember to tell me the first time you find the immortal tomb."

Chen Xian stepped forward, took the animal skin scroll, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured. When I find the immortal's tomb, I will rush to the palace as soon as possible and tell Your Majesty in person."

Emperor Ning nodded: "Go ahead and let Ning Chen in!"

"It's your Majesty!"

Chen Xian put away the animal skin scroll, bowed and left the imperial study.

"Your Highness the Ninth Prince, His Majesty has summoned you."

Ning Chen looked extremely excited. He straightened his clothes, nodded to Chen Xian, and walked towards the imperial study.

Lu Bai leaned against the big pillar, looked at Chen Xian and said, "What did His Majesty reward you with? A duke or a king?"

Chen Xian rolled his eyes, wondering what he was thinking.

The kings of different surnames in the Daning Dynasty were all awarded by Taizu, the founder of Daning. After that, no one was awarded the title of king of different surnames, and even the title of duke was rare.

At most, he can be a marquis.

Soon, a man in armor came to Chen Xian, holding a manuscript in his hand.

"Greetings, Lord Marquis, Master Lu!"

"My Lord, you asked for it!"

The armored man handed the Zhou Chao book in his hand to Chen Xian. Chen Xian knew it was the Black Turtle Secret Scroll, so he put it away without even looking at it.

The latter bowed and walked away.

In less than half an incense stick of time, Ning Chen walked out of the imperial study with excitement on his face.

Seeing Chen Xian and Lu Bai were still there, he walked over with a smile.

"What reward did His Majesty give you that makes you so happy?" Lu Bai raised his eyebrows.

"Good, good...!" Ning Chen said with a smile.

Seeing that he was unwilling to talk, Lu Bai turned his mouth away and did not ask any further questions.

"Your Highness, I should go back now."

After leaving Daning Palace, Chen Xian looked at Ning Chen and said.

"Wang Yan is still in the palace. I will send you away from Kyoto City later!" Ning Chen said.

"Don't give it a gift. It's too conspicuous!" Chen Xian said.

Lu Bai also nodded: "It's indeed not appropriate, so let's not send it."

"It's okay, just think of it as a farewell from a friend." Ning Chen still insisted on seeing him off.

Chen Xian and Lu Bai didn't say anything else.

The south gate of Kyoto City.

Ning Chen, along with his personal eunuch, watched Chen Xian and the others leave.

Tang Can and Xiahou Feng did not leave early, waiting to go all the way back to Fengtian.

"Your Highness the Ninth Prince, goodbye!" Chen Xian and Wang Yan stood in front of the car and bowed to Ning Chen.

Ning Chen got off the horse and nodded: "Take care!"

The two of them smiled and got on the carriage, leaving with Lu Bai and others.

Ning Chen stood in front of the Wind and Thunder Horse, with a look of reluctance in his eyes.

During these three days when Chen Xian was by his side, he found himself feeling much more at ease and confident.

As soon as Chen Xian left, he felt a little uneasy.

……

May 22nd.

At 9:00 in the morning, four horse-drawn carriages drove into Fengtian City. They were the carriages of Chen Xian and Lu Bai.

The four of them said goodbye when they were outside the city.

So after the carriage entered the city.

Tang Can and Xiahou Feng went straight back to Fengtian military camp.

Lu Bai returned to the Lu family.

Chen Xian and Wang Yan went to the Demon Suppression Headquarters.

In the Demon Suppression Hall, Chen Xian had just sat down when Zhang Tan, Peng Dazhuang, and Jing Xiuran appeared.

"Sir, something happened!" Zhang Tan said with a serious expression.

Chen Xian had no expression on his face: "What's the matter?"

Zhang Tan said, "On the second night after you left, someone attacked the Demon Suppression Headquarters at night and wanted to take away the Black Python Demon Monk. It was the Lu family who intervened and stopped the man in black, preventing him from succeeding."

"Night attack on the Demon Suppression Headquarters?" Chen Xian narrowed his eyes slightly.

He nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. What about the black python monk?"

"No one was hurt, but thirteen Demon-Suppressing Guards were killed by the man in black." Zhang Tan said.

"Do you know what his cultivation level is?" Chen Xian said.

"Divine Power Realm!" Zhang Tan said, "The one from the Lu family who tried to stop him was also at the Divine Power Realm. It seemed to be Lord Lu Jianfei, the cousin of the head of the Lu family."

Chen Xian nodded. The Lu family had five powerful people in the realm of supernatural powers. Lu Jianfei had reached perfection in the realm of supernatural powers. In the Lu family, his strength was second only to the head of the family, Lu Jianyu.

"Is there anything else going on?" he asked.

"Nothing else." Zhang Tan shook his head.

Chen Xian nodded: "Okay, I understand, you can go and get busy."

Zhang Tan nodded and left.

Chen Xianling opened her eyes and looked around the mansion. She saw Zhan Yu instructing Chen Rong in her training, just like an old master. Her sister Chen Rong was completely confused.

Chen Xian was speechless. How could the cultivation of demons be the same as that of humans? Why was he giving such random instructions?
Seeing that the Marquis' Mansion was safe and sound, he felt relieved and retracted his spiritual eye.

In the Hou Mansion.

Zhan Yu frowned and walked out of the hall: "Who is spying? You are so brave!"

After careful observation, he found that the prying eyes had disappeared. He turned around and walked back to the hall to continue instructing Chen Rong.

"Little girl, you are so stupid. The beginning is about nourishing Qi, also known as accumulating Qi. Why don't you understand?"

"Brother Zhan Yu, can you explain it in a little more detail?" Chen Rong looked at Zhan Yu eagerly.

Zhan Yu slapped his forehead with his hand, sat down and said, "Do you understand cultivation?"

Chen Rong shook his head: "I don't understand."

"You really don't understand. If you want to understand, you can do it. I mean, do you know how to cultivate immortality?"

"know."

"Your book [Qingshan Jue] is a method of cultivating immortality. It requires the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to enter the body for nourishment. When it reaches a certain stage, it can fly with a sword. Have you ever seen flying with a sword?"

"never seen it!"

Chen Rong shook his head in confusion.

"Oh my god... Chen Xian is so smart, why are you so stupid?" Zhan Yu was speechless.

At this time, Chen Quan said, "How about you teach me?"

Zhan Yu glanced at Chen Quan and rolled his eyes: "Forget it, you don't have the qualifications, but don't you look at your age?"

Chen Quan looked embarrassed.

"In your Chen family, only Chen Xian has some talent. You all don't. Just practice slowly!" Zhan Yu threw the [Qingshan Jue] in front of Chen Rong and left shaking his head.

Chen Rong puffed his lips, picked up [Qingshan Jue] and continued reading.

"Gathering energy, nourishing energy, flying with the sword..." She murmured, looked at the lightning-struck black wooden sword beside her, picked it up and swung it twice.

Sit down and continue looking at the formula.

“Gathering Qi, gathering the spiritual energy from the heaven, earth, mountains and rivers… heaven, earth, mountains and rivers, heaven, earth, mountains and rivers…”

Chen Rong murmured, looking up outside the hall: "But there are no mountains here. When there are mountains in the town..."

"Dad, why don't you talk to my brother and let's go back to town. There are mountains in town, maybe we can practice it."

Hearing this, Chen Quan smiled bitterly and said, "Xiao Rong, didn't you hear what Zhan Yu said? Your brother is the only one in our family who has the talent for cultivation. Cultivation really requires talent. Without that talent, it will be difficult to achieve success even after a hundred years."

"Okay, I'll take my time!" Chen Rong curled his lips helplessly. Although there are no mountains here, there is heaven and earth, and there is spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

As long as you find the right method, you will definitely be able to absorb spiritual energy.

……

The general commander of demon suppression.

in the hall.

Chen Xian sat there with a frown. He didn't know who had attacked the Demon-Suppressing Tower at night, but he had already guessed who was the mastermind behind the attack.

There are really not many people in this world who can command powerful people with supernatural powers, so it is not difficult to guess.

"Peng Wanhu, how is the Yu family's search for the immortal's tomb going?" Chen Xian asked.

Peng Dazhuang said, "Sir, let me tell you about the situation last time. The Yu family has not made any progress yet."

Chen Xian nodded: "Keep an eye on them in secret, don't let the Yu family find out."

Peng Dazhuang nodded: "Don't worry, sir."

After Peng Dazhuang left, Chen Xian looked at Jing Xiuran, who had reached the third level of Tiangang cultivation.

He pondered for a moment, then sent a message to Jing Xiuran: "Xiuran, you leave Fengtian City secretly and investigate the truth of the evil monk's confession, especially the evil deeds he did with Gu Qingyang. Remember, do not reveal your identity, and do not investigate openly. Do not mention the evil monk and Gu Qingyang during the investigation. Just treat it as a person who travels around the world and understands the interesting things in the world."

Jing Xiuran looked at Chen Xian and nodded secretly: "I will do it right away."

"Remember, safety comes first, don't be anxious." Chen Xian said.

Then he took out three gold ingots from his storage ring and threw them to Jing Xiuran: "For expenses."

"Thank you, sir!"

Jing Xiuran put away the gold ingots, turned around and left the hall.

Only Wang Yan was left in the hall.

"Brother Xian, is there anything I can do for you?" Wang Yan asked.

"You should practice first and improve your strength to the Tiangang realm." Chen Xian said.

Wang Yan is now at the entry level of Spirit Infant, and although he has entered the ranks of martial arts masters, it is still not enough.

The mortality rate of people at the Tiangang realm is still much lower. With a soul body, they will not be easily killed.

Soon, Wei Tong and three others arrived at the hall.

After meeting Chen Xian, he told him about the sneak attack on the Demon-Suppressing Tower.

"I already know, have the two elders of the Black Corpse Sect been captured?" Chen Xian looked at Wei Tong.
