Seven people would practice every day, each for one hour, no extensions granted. However, there was a hidden little benefit: ng Yu would dine with a True Sage, and this spot was quite expensive.
Every evening, a True Sage would visit ng Yu's house to chat about interesting matters, but always just one person, carefully selected. Those with significant troubles or bad reputations, ng Yu wouldn't et with them.
It might sound absurd, but people ca to see ng Yu every day.
"All right, as usual."
ng Yu calmly instructed.
Chang Lebai nodded and walked out, but a flash of cold light flickered in ng Yu's eyes.
Twenty days had passed since the incident concerning Ouyang Zhenxue, yet there was still no news.
In kidnapping cases, the suspects were mostly people close to or familiar with the victim, so the first suspects in the disappearance of the Golden Core were those close to Ouyang Zhenxue, including Chang Lebai and the other three.
Fortunately, they had been interrogated by the police, investigated, and then proven to be unproblematic.
However, while the Blood God Sect's interrogation showed no issues, ng Yu's Growing Golden Lotus sensed emotional fluctuations in Chang Lebai.
Although she was only a Fourth Grade Qi Cultivation Practitioner, she was extrely adept at concealing her emotions, so much so that even Golden Cores would struggle to sense any issues, which was precisely why Ouyang Zhenxue had always used her.
It wasn't until Ouyang Zhenxue's disappearance that ng Yu revealed his own cultivation level, and only then did she montarily display so sort of emotional reaction.
It was like soone who had just handed in their resignation, given up their options, only to find out the company was about to go public!
Imnse regret and frustration.
ng Yu did nothing apparent, continuing as usual, including ntoring her and so forth, even seriously asking her to tell outsiders, saying that as long as Ouyang Zhenxue or any relevant person was released or information provided, everything could be discussed.
Of course, ng Yu wasn't sure whether her regret was from betraying Ouyang Zhenxue or from joining so other organization, so he continued to wait while also notifying Yu Xuetong to privately investigate further.
Until today, when Master Niu, who had sparred with him in the morning, expressed a desire to consult with ng Yu. During this battle with Master Niu, ng Yu felt the malice in his opponent's heart.
Sure enough, during these days, ng Yu never left the small courtyard, even if soone anonymously sent ssages claiming to know Ouyang Zhenxue's location and providing an ornant as proof, urging ng Yu to leave the community to a specific place. ng Yu simply forwarded the ssage to Old Bearded Sui, letting law enforcent handle it, even rejecting Sui's suggestion that he personally take the risk of eting the enemy outside to lure them into a trap.
He firmly stated, grateful for Ouyang Zhenxue's support, but he wouldn't be coerced by anyone and there was no need to risk his life over it; at most, he would seek revenge for Ouyang Zhenxue.
The matter saw no further developnts, and ng Yu continued to quietly stay on his side. Then today, Master Niu appeared.
A Golden Core filled with malice, an underling harboring ill intentions... ng Yu smiled.
...
Elsewhere.
While calmly preparing refreshnts, Chang Lebai was incredibly nervous. If it weren't for the spiritual divine skill she was naturally awakened with, her flaws would have been exposed long ago.
She now deeply regretted joining the Saint Path Gathering.
The Path of Immortality was arduous, fraught with many difficulties. She had painstakingly reverted from acquired to innate status, achieving Qi Refinent Practitioner, yet knowing her future prospects for Foundation Establishnt were slim.
It was nothing but a lack of resources and ti.
Resources determined how far a person could go, whereas ti—having beco a Qi Refinent family, she had given up too much. Afterwards, she had to find ways to repay her family, whether it was taking a post on another planet or tirelessly undertaking missions. The multitude of mundane affairs would waste her most precious ti.
Unwilling to accept this, but she wasn't the only one reluctant.
Thus, with her naturally strong spiritual power, she beca a mber of the Saint Path Gathering.
It was a mysterious organization that had ingeniously made her one of Ouyang Zhenxue's assistants. However, the more she thought about it, the more helpless she felt.
You big fools!
The group found an opportunity and kidnapped Ouyang Zhen Xue. This operation was flawless, so much so that even Chang Lebai held it in high regard. This was, after all, a Golden Core from the Immortal Sect.
She didn't know what they wanted with Ouyang Zhen Xue, but who could imagine, everyone was picking sesa seeds and abandoning a mountain of gold!
Xiao Jun, Xiao Jun!
This man was truly a genius. If the Divine Sect had acted a few days later, they could have easily captured him along with Ouyang Zhen Xue, instead of just drooling over Xiao Jun as they were now.
Although Xiao Jun had only achieved Foundation Establishnt, this man was truly a Nascent Soul Seed, and he was deeply loyal. If they could capture him, the Divine Sect had a thousand thods to make him surrender, but now, they couldn't find the opportunity.
By day, he was constantly visited by Golden Cores; by night, he locked himself away, didn't partake in any social activities, and wasn't even slightly lascivious, giving neither her nor anyone else any chances.
After enduring for twenty days, they finally decided to make a move, and this ti, the thod was very straightforward, involving internal and external collaboration.
Xiao Jun had two dependencies, the first being the Third Grade Formation Array in the courtyard.
The Array was known as the Southern Dipper Eight-Star Array; it was both offensive and defensive. Xiao Jun could rge with the array at any ti, and having observed it for several days, Chang Lebai understood the operational threads of the Spiritual Formation. Moreover, replenishing the Spirit Stones was her job, so she could stop the array from functioning when the ti ca.
The second was his blade Martial Skill.
Although he was only at Foundation Establishnt, his cultivation was enough to match those at the initial stage of the Golden Core. However, this ti, Chang Lebai had prepared poison in the snacks and sandalwood; simultaneously, she had a Spiritual Treasure on her person, which when activated, would suffice to immobilize Xiao Jun.
Moreover, Master Niu, as a mid-stage Golden Core expert, would co fully equipped this ti, including carrying a Golden Core Stage flying corpse. With the advantage of preparedness against the unprepared, there shouldn't be any problems.
This was why she admired the Divine Sect, but for so reason, she felt extrely panicked inside.
Because, her superiors had asked her a question, whether Xiao Jun really was ng Yu?
Her answer was that she had never seen ng Yu and didn't know. Then before the action, she asked her superiors if there was any possibility that Xiao Jun was ng Yu, and their answer was that they weren't entirely sure either!
This was absurd!
Xiao Jun, this guy, was totally insulting everyone's intelligence!
He had so many things in common with ng Yu, even pulling off the Fire Crow Sword Technique, Thirteen Swords of the Long River, and just the other day he had a revelation about the Sword Intent of the Wind, mastering eighteen falls of a touched robe... If it wasn't for the Blood God Sect repeatedly verifying his life signals, and finding the devices entirely functional, everyone would have already captured him for breeding!
It was absolutely insulting!
Still, many believed this person was indeed ng Yu, who had supposedly learned so Divine Skill to alter his age. Now, he had arrived at the Blood God Sect to trick and sponge off of them, along with practicing Body Refinent!
Yeah, hard interrogation wouldn't suffice, ng Yu was very difficult to capture. His Void Shifting has baffled countless experts who couldn't find a way to counter it, and Growing Golden Lotus was his ultimate lifeline, so how could they capture such a person?
If you couldn't capture him, you would face his ferocious retaliation!
Of course, the most perfect strategy for capture discussed privately was when a female Golden Core wrestled him close-up, and if that didn't work, maybe adding two or three others...
Well, this leads to another question: since they could wrestle him close-up, why not continue to build good relations?
This was a goose that could lay golden eggs; he was actually very beneficial for the Immortal Sect, cooperating generously, making the Blood God Sect envious.
So please tell , why would you capture soone like that?
For Golden Finger, Void Shifting, or aiding the Old Immortal Gate?
So, why not let ng Yu lead everyone to prosperity together?
But if Xiao Jun isn't ng Yu, well... you still can't ignore that this man's skills in swindling, oh no, in striking awe were truly maxed out.
The Blood God Sect is probably wondering what to do about this situation now.
Chang Lebai also felt a great headache, as she harbored a horrifying suspicion.
