"Watching ?"
Wen Zhixing’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Was Mu Yunqing still surveilling him? Did he want to see if I had any contact with that Qiu Yinger?
"Mu, Wen has been staying inside the house and hasn’t gone out," Zhang Tiancheng said with a nod and a bow, speaking cautiously.
"Hasn’t gone out?"
Mu Yunqing frowned.
"Zhang was injured and should have been healing these past few days."
"Healing?"
Mu Yunqing remained noncommittal.
Imdiately, he glanced at Zhang Tiancheng, his expression changed slightly, and he asked, "You’re injured?"
Zhang Tiancheng poked his head out, revealing a bruised and swollen face.
At this mont, he had indeed been injured, though not as gravely as Wen Zhixing had been when he was missing.
"It’s a minor injury, a minor injury," Zhang Tiancheng stamred.
"What happened? Who did this? Were you suspected by soone?" Mu Yunqing spoke with a stern tone.
"No, no." Zhang Tiancheng hurriedly waved his hand and said, "It was when Wen was abducted by Ning Shan. I happened to see it, and I inford Qiu Yinger about this..."
"Is it the people from Wutong Peak retaliating against you?" Mu Yunqing’s expression relaxed slightly.
Zhang Tiancheng nodded repeatedly. "Yes, Senior Brother, rest assured, I definitely didn’t reveal my identity."
Wen Zhixing was taken aback upon seeing this.
So Zhang Tiancheng’s injury... was because of ?
He truly hadn’t expected Zhang Tiancheng to take such a risk for him; it was completely beyond his expectations.
Does Zhang Tiancheng really consider a friend? Wen Zhixing’s eyes revealed a hint of surprise.
"Oh yes, the matter I asked you to investigate, any news?" Just then, Mu Yunqing asked again.
"There’s news. Si Nanyan is still in closed-door cultivation. Qiu Yinger was likely the one who activated the Sect Protection Array that day, and the Palace Master’s token that controls the array thod is probably still with her," Zhang Tiancheng reported in a low voice, with his head down.
"Very good!" Mu Yunqing’s eyes glead, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly. "You’ve done well."
"I dare not."
"There’s no need to be modest." Mu Yunqing looked at Zhang Tiancheng, nodding with satisfaction, and then said, "Zhang, our Righteous Sun Sect has always been clear about rewards and punishnts. This ti, you’ve made a contribution, so there will naturally be a reward."
"To serve the sect, I am willing to give my all until death." Zhang Tiancheng looked up slightly, his expression humble, an appropriately excited look appearing on his face.
"You’re a smart man. Keep up the good work, and I won’t let you down," Mu Yunqing nodded with satisfaction.
"Tomorrow, soone will bring the items to your house."
As his voice fell, the scene also gradually faded away.
[You have gained a Spiritual Instrunt: Storage Belt.]
[Storage Belt: Grey Quality, possesses a one cubic ter storage space, this item has a disguise feature, normally looking like an ordinary belt.]
[Spend ten Fortune Points to upgrade to White Quality.]
A Storage Belt? Wen Zhixing was pleased.
The next mont, a flash of mystical light appeared, and a simple, unremarkable grey belt materialized in his palm.
Wen Zhixing quickly glanced at Zhang Tiancheng, saw he was still ditating, and breathed a sigh of relief.
I didn’t expect Mu Yunqing to be so generous this ti. This Storage Belt might only be Grey Quality, but it’s quite valuable, not to ntion its built-in disguise feature. It’s just that the storage space inside is a bit small. One cubic ter is barely enough to store so small items. But as long as I use Fortune Points to upgrade it, the space inside should expand.
Wen Zhixing didn’t study it further and casually stuffed it into his chest.
Right now, he had no Spiritual Qi in his body. Normally, opening the Storage Belt would require the power of his Life Defying Blood Body. There was no other way; the threshold for using a Spiritual Instrunt was the Qi Movent Realm.
The Storage Belt isn’t the key; their conversation is crucial.
Wen Zhixing recalled their dialogue once again.
The key pieces of information were quickly extracted by him.
Si Nanyan was still in closed-door cultivation. No wonder that day, when Feng Ruoli was being hunted, not a single person stood up for her. Also, that so-called Palace Master’s token could control the Wonderous Palace’s Sect Protection Array. Now that Si Nanyan is in closed-door cultivation, Qiu Yinger is temporarily in charge of it.
Is this why Mu Yunqing told to get close to Qiu Yinger? Wen Zhixing finally understood.
He wants to use my looks to get close to her and then steal the Palace Master’s token. However, such an important item isn’t sothing a re ’furnace’ like could easily steal. The difficulty is enormous, to say the least. If I fail, I’ll likely lose my life.
This Righteous Sun Sect probably isn’t a good place either, Wen Zhixing sighed.
He was feeling sowhat troubled. Since he had transmigrated, he had only encountered these two cultivation sects, and neither seed easy to deal with.
HUFF... At this mont, Zhang Tiancheng slowly exhaled a turbid breath.
After regulating his breath, his condition had significantly improved. The effects of the Earth Elent Pill were astounding. In just a short while, the swelling on Zhang Tiancheng’s head had mostly subsided.
"Wen, thank you." As soon as Zhang Tiancheng opened his eyes, he cupped his fists in a salute and offered back the remaining Earth Elent Pill.
"Senior Brother, why be so distant?" Wen Zhixing asked in surprise, his expression conveying, I thought we had a good relationship.
"Junior Brother, although this Senior Brother enjoys taking small advantages, this elixir is simply too valuable." Zhang Tiancheng looked reluctant but still offered the elixir back.
"Senior Brother, I have more elixirs. Please keep it." Wen Zhixing pushed the elixir back. "You need it more than I do, Senior Brother."
"In that case, I’ll respectfully accept your offer." Seeing Wen Zhixing’s sincere gaze, Zhang Tiancheng no longer refused and quietly accepted the elixir.
"Junior Brother, I’ll head back first then," Zhang Tiancheng said. Wen Zhixing’s magnanimity made him feel sowhat embarrassed to stay longer. He didn’t want to involve Wen Zhixing in any trouble.
"Senior Brother, just focus on your cultivation here for the next few days." Wen Zhixing grabbed his arm and said with a smile, "You can cultivate here in peace. The people from Wutong Peak wouldn’t dare cause trouble."
With that, he took out the token that Feng Ruoli had given him earlier.
On the silver token, an elegant, flowing script of the character ’Feng’—the first part of Feng Ruoli’s na—was especially eye-catching.
"This is..." Zhang Tiancheng was taken aback upon seeing the token.
This seems to be... Feng Ruoli’s token. Only soone she trusts could possibly obtain this token.
"Wen... Is this from Deputy Palace Master Feng... to you?" Zhang Tiancheng swallowed nervously, speaking with so astonishnt.
Most people couldn’t hope to get such a token.
"Mm." Wen Zhixing nodded, then put the token away.
Afterward, he took out another token and said, "Look, I have another one."
Zhang Tiancheng looked closely and saw it was a gold token with a large, prominent script of the character ’Si’—the first part of Si Nanyan’s na—on it.
"You have the Palace Master’s token as well?" He was utterly astounded.
He has tokens from both the Palace Master and the Deputy Palace Master? I knew Wen Zhixing had a special constitution, but I didn’t expect him to be this favored! It seems there are many things I’m unaware of.
"Mm." Wen Zhixing nodded again.
He seed rather indifferent to Zhang Tiancheng’s surprise.
"Wen, you... you’re truly... aweso!" Zhang Tiancheng silently gave him a thumbs-up.
"Strength" indeed. Wen certainly has so formidable ans!
