Chapter 170: Chapter 67 Sharp to the Eye [Seeking monthly ticket!]_1
Among the three religions of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism, the inheritance mode of Confucian cultivators is somewhat different from that of Buddhism and Taoism. They mostly propagate their teachings through academies. After studying for a period of time, they will leave the mountain and integrate into the society, there usually isn’t a consistently followed Sect.
After leaving the academy, each would go their own way. Besides some who remained in the academy to teach, others would seldom have any relation with the academy. If the bond was strong, they might just do something for the academy once they achieve success in the future. They have a high degree of freedom.
If the cultivators of Buddhism and Taoism left their sect gates and established their own sects, it didn’t matter; but if they joined other sects, there would inevitably be a bit of a traitorous implication.
However, this City Warden Official and Shang Shuwen of Shu Mountain surprisingly once studied together in the same academy.
"Oh? Really?". Upon hearing that Chu Liang was close to Shang Shuwen, the City Warden Du revealed a smile.
"Yes, Uncle Master Shang has indeed helped me a lot on my cultivation journey!" Chu Liang confirmed with a nod.
This was a completely true statement that couldn’t be proven false even with the Heart Reflecting Candle!
After chatting a bit, the gathering of resentful spirits on the other side was finally complete. A faint shadow was hovering over the dead body, this was just a small portion of the soul that didn’t possess any spirituality.
But if the murderer was present, the resentful spirit would definitely attach itself to them.
But at this moment, there was only a spot of moonlight shining on the innocent head of the Golden Fur Beast.
"It seems indeed that the Spirit Beast did not kill him, it must be the work of an Evil Demon." City Warden Du said to General Li.
General Li looked at the hooligan and barked, "Who exactly ordered you?"
"Sir! I honestly don’t know!" The hooligan knelt on the ground and pleaded.
"He indeed seems to not know," Chu Liang was at ease after being cleared of suspicion, chimed in.
After all, whatever he said earlier was under the light of the Heart Reflecting Candle; if he knew the identity of the mastermind behind everything, it would have already been illuminated by the candle.
"Since you all are disciples of Shu Mountain, there shouldn’t be any enemies here..." City Warden Du pondered, "Do you have any suspects?"
"I suspect it’s..." Lin Bei was about to say something when he suddenly felt Chu Liang subtly tugging at him, he immediately changed his response: "I suspect it’s his neighbor."
He pointed towards the hooligan and said: "The child at his neighbor’s house is his, if I were in his place, I would also want to kill him."
General Li and City Warden Du looked at Lin Bei strangely, thinking he wasn’t making much sense.
After investigating further for a while, finding nothing peculiar, daylight began to peek through the horizon.
The Government Office officials wrapped up their investigation and City Warden Du told Chu Liang, "If you encounter any difficulties in Yanbo City, feel free to come find me."
As the City Warden Official, he had the authority to oversee the cultivators in the city, his words had weight.
"Thank you, Uncle Master Du!" Chu Liang thanked him directly.
"Despite your young age, you handle things calmly yet assertively, demonstrating the charm of our Confucian gentlemen." City Warden Du praised, "It’s no wonder Senior Brother Shang likes you!"
"I merely regard people like you two as exemplars and learn from your actions," replied Chu Liang with a smile.
It was only after seeing off the two officials that Lin Bei curiously asked, "Why didn’t you let me speak? Didn’t you think about the Old Yuan? The only Evil Demon we have offended in the vicinity is it."
"Suspect?" Chu Liang chuckled, "I am almost certain it is it! Look at what this is?"
As he said this, he held out his palm to reveal a white monkey hair.
This strand of hair was discovered earlier, it still had some residual spirituality on it. The white light that ate the person, must have been transformed from this object.
"Then..." Lin Bei was about to inquire, suddenly he seemed to have understood something, and showed a sudden realization in his expression.
If the events about the Old Yuan were disclosed to the Government Office officials, they would naturally storm the valley and bring down the white ape as punishment. Such an Evil Demon, which viewed human lives as meaningless, must be eliminated by the Imperial Court.
But in doing so, the entire valley filled with Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasures would be exposed.
Since they had to get rid of the Evil Demon anyway, it’s better to do it personally.
...
"Did you see it?"
Still in that dim room, the man in the white robe and the shadow sat facing each other.
"You were right, Chu Liang is indeed in Yanbo City. I looked around and found him in an inn outside Yanbo City." The shadow had his eyes closed tight, his fingers forming a seal, as if he was displaying a Divine Skill.
"What did you see?" The man in the white robe casually inquired.
"I saw him in..." The shadow’s expression suddenly changed, it seemed shocked, disbelief, and self-pity.
"What’s wrong?" The man in the white robe was confused.
"Ah ya..." The shadow quickly dispelled his Divine Skill and rubbed his forehead with his hands, giving off a tiring look.
After quite a while, he squeezed out a word: "What an eyesore."
"What exactly did you see?" The man in the white robe was filled with curiosity.
"I saw him in a room, with one man tied up in an unspeakable position, a candle held in his hand... and another man was unfastening his trousers on the side..."
The shadow had an unspeakable expression on his face.
"Nowadays young people..." The man in the white robe, hearing this, also showed a shocked expression, "Are you sure that the person he’s doing it to is a man?"
"Yes."
"All of them?"
"All three of them."
"I’m glad that the Divine Skill of omnipresence doesn’t last long when used from a great distance." The shadow spoke in a tone as if he had been spared a disaster, "Just that one look earlier, I don’t know how long it’ll take me to forget it."
This Immortal Law is called omnipresence.
It can extend one’s senses to any part of the world.
"I’m so glad I don’t know how to use omnipresence." The man in the white robe spoke gratefully.
"Anyway, we have confirmed the young man’s whereabouts now." The shadow said angrily, "I need to hurry up and get someone to kill him, to eliminate him from this world!"
"Yes, also one more thing." The man in the white robe regained his composure then spoke solemnly.
"What’s wrong?" The shadow inquired.
"After Jiang Yuebai’s last lecture, Xu Ziyang seems to have received some enlightenment. Not long ago, he also achieved the Perfect Cycle, and the Zhou Tian Phenomenon appeared." The man in the white robe said.
"This Zhou Tian Phenomenon... really doesn’t seem as much value as before." The shadow grumbled bitterly.
"Moreover..." The man in the white robe paused before continuing, "His phenomenon is not a Golden Core in the Qi Sea, but the Five Qi Initiation."
"What?!" The shadow was genuinely shocked now, "Has he reached the Fifth Stage!"
"Yes," replied the man in the white robe, "With the Immortal Spirit Body Jiang Yuebai and the Fifth Stage Xu Ziyang, Shu Mountain will never decline as long as these two are present."
"We must strangle them before they grow." The shadow gritted his teeth. "I want Shu Mountain to be forever incapable of recovery!"
