Fangzhang Continent, Tianya Mountain Base
Lu Xuan was visiting Tianya Mountain Base and was received with great warmth. Most places were open to him, except for so core areas. This was an incredible thing for other independent cultivators; when had the high and mighty Huaxia cultivators beco so welcoming?
They certainly did not know that Lu Xuan had strong connections in Tianya Mountain and Huaxia. Back when he was a hunter on Fangzhang Continent, he broke many records.
When you are powerful, others treat you kindly. That was how Lu Xuan ford close ties with a large group of elite newcors from Huaxia, including Lin Liyan.
Lu Xuan’s emotional intelligence was not very high, but it was above the average person’s level. With the desire to please, he got along well with them. This is why he was later able to take over territory in Penglai Continent, and these elite cultivators contributed a lot.
For so many years, Lu Xuan has kept in touch with each other. Every year, he sends over many special local products and occasionally has video calls to discuss cultivation. Besides that, there are so business exchanges; when relatives and friends of those people travel to the Penglai Continent, he makes perfect arrangents for them.
With such careful managent, it is normal for Lu Xuan to have a strong network among the new generation of cultivators in Huaxia. This ti, he ca to the Penglai Continent under the pretense of sending cultivators from Wanghai City for training and to catch so magical beasts to improve the lineage of his magical beast breeding business.
"Brother Yu, after work tonight, let’s get together. We didn’t have enough to drink the other day."
One morning, Lu Xuan found Yu Yuhua, who is an important figure at the Tianya Mountain Base, ranking about fifth. They have been old friends for many years.
"I can’t tonight. Tonight, we have guests at the base, so I can’t accompany Brother Lu."
"Guests? The base is so quiet right now; who would co?"
"A senior from the police force, seems like he is a first-level police supervisor, coming to investigate a case. I don’t know what’s going on, but I haven’t heard of any major cases happening at Tianya Mountain."
Yu Yuhua said that although the person’s cultivation was lower than his, their rank was about the sa, and he had to greet them. But he couldn’t understand what they were coming for. The higher-ups said it was to investigate a case, yet he hadn’t received any notice about a major case at Tianya Mountain.
"I see, then I won’t disturb you any longer, Brother Yu. Let’s et another day."
"The day after tomorrow, I have a day off. That day, I will treat you. It’s not fair if I always eat what you provide."
"Brother Yu, you are being too polite. If it weren’t for you old friends helping , I would have been broke long ago."
"Hehe, don’t be shy. This ti, I’ll serve you Immortal Drunkenness."
"Wait, is that the Immortal Drunkenness made from the ancient spiritual wine recipe?"
"Yes, but it’s not what you find in stores. Those are just trash. This was given to
by my ancestor. Just wait, I promise that after you drink this, drinking other wines will feel like drinking water."
Yu Yuhua laughed, for he was a descendant of a forr disciple of the Four Sages Sect. His ancestor had a close relationship with the Lin family. Now he held a high position, and the Immortal Drunkenness he obtained was made from the ancient recipe and had been treasured for over a hundred years. It was truly a rare spiritual wine, far better than the common trash outside.
When Lu Xuan heard this, he rubbed his hands together in delight. He loved good wine, and when dealing with people, it was impossible not to drink. He had built many connections through sharing good wine in the past.
Seeing Lu Xuan’s expression, Yu Yuhua was even happier, laughing heartily as he left. Once Yu Yuhua was gone, Lu Xuan slowly settled his smile.
Around noon, the teleportation array at Tianya Mountain Base flickered, and a group of people appeared, led by Chen Jinfa and his elite police team. Yu Yuhua led the welco from Tianya Mountain, and both sides were of equal standing.
Stepping out of the teleportation array, Chen Jinfa and Yu Yuhua talked as they walked deeper into the base. As they passed through a dormitory area, Chen Jinfa saw Lu Xuan on a balcony of a room, and they nodded to each other.
"Master Chen knows him."
"Lu Xuan, a big farm owner from the Penglai Continent. I went to Penglai Continent to investigate a case years ago and stayed on his land for a few days, so I know him."
Chen Jinfa said he rembered that Lu Xuan was a charming person, and the leaders of the Bahuang Group from Penglai Continent admired him very much.
"Oh, I see."
"Lord Yu, I rember Lu Xuan isn’t from Huaxia. How is he living here?"
"He is my friend. This ti he brought two hundred new disciples to Penglai Continent for training and wants to catch so monster beasts to improve their bloodlines. You know he is in the business of breeding monster beasts, and getting so new varieties is very important."
"I see. How long has Lu Xuan been here?"
Chen Jinfa nodded, and he didn’t ntion Yu Yuhua’s misuse of public resources. For soone of this level, such a matter was not significant.
"It has been almost a month, right? They planned to train for four or five months, what happened?"
"It’s nothing, just asking. I once tried a type of sheep from his family, and it was really delicious. Even after many years, I still can’t forget it."
"It must be the Golden Striped Blue Blood Sheep. That is the finest among sheep. A second-tier Golden Striped Blue Blood Sheep can be sold for five thousand spirit stones in Huaxia. No matter how it is cooked, it tastes amazing."
"It seems so. If there’s a chance, Lord Yu, could you help introduce ? I would like to make a friend and ask him to sell
a few at a lower price. I want to take them ho so the children can see the world."
Chen Jinfa smiled and said, while Yu Yuhua didn’t think much of it and agreed. The Golden Striped Blue Blood Sheep is a luxury-grade spiritual beast at and is very popular; he liked it a lot too.

Demon Domain
Chen Jinfa t with the Heavenly Fox Demon Emperor in a very secretive way; he ca alone. Chen Jinfa directly told the Heavenly Fox Demon Emperor that the recent killing of the high-ranking Demon King from the demon race was not done by Huaxia. They have thoroughly investigated it.
"Is the evil faction no longer part of the human race? This ti, you must give the demon race an explanation."
"Heavenly Fox Demon Emperor, being angry with
is useless. I am not a high-ranking official from Huaxia, and I cannot give you answers. I am here to investigate."
"Hmph, if you do not give us answers within a month, do not bla
for the demon race army attacking Tianya Mountain."
"Heavenly Fox Demon Emperor, I cannot say this enough, talking to
is useless. If you have any evidence, please give it to ; otherwise, I will leave."
Chen Jinfa scoffed; being fierce with him was pointless. If you have the ability, go be fierce with the higher-ups; he was not afraid at all.
The Heavenly Fox Demon Emperor hit a soft spot and was very angry, but in the end, he still threw out two Image Saving Talismans, which recorded the events when the fierce person killed the Demon King of the demon race.
Chen Jinfa activated the Image Saving Talismans on the spot and also used his equipnt to gather evidence. Looking at the content on the Image Saving Talismans, Chen Jinfa frowned again.
Because the thods used by the fierce person to kill the Demon King were very similar to those of the killer he dealt with years ago in the Penglai Continent, it was no wonder Qiu Weidao suspected he had faked the case back then.
"How is it?"
"There are no clues for now. I will go back, and if anything happens, I will report to you. Here, take this communicator; it is temporary. The battery will last for a year, but it will not work after that."
"Do you really want to spend a year investigating this case?"
"The murderer is clever; it’s normal to investigate for a year. Many old cases take decades or even centuries to solve."
"You…"
"Goodbye."
Chen Jinfa couldn’t be bothered to respond and simply turned around and walked away.
"Who could it be, and what does that person have to do with it?"
On the way back, Chen Jinfa was lost in thought. The Penglai Continent and the Fangzhang Continent, two places hundreds of thousands of miles apart, had the sa kind of evil practice, and he had no clues at all.
So he could only instinctively suspect Lu Xuan, whom he t before, because he was the only one connected to both places, and this case also occurred within the last month, while Lu Xuan had also arrived a month ago.
"It seems I need to et this wealthy man, Lu."
Chen Jinfa said to himself that he rembered Lu Xuan had reached the Soul Changing Stage many years ago. Lu Xuan was the first independent cultivator to enter the Soul Changing Stage and was also the first among the new generation of cultivators. However, in recent years, he had been much more low-key and had not revealed his cultivation level again.
