Chapter 104: Chapter 103 Spirit Cultivator
After a whole day of commotion, it finally quieted down by evening.
The East District had restored its usual order at last.
The cells of the four districts’ Divine Capture Bureau were completely full.
"You two arrange the patrol, I’m heading back first."
Chen Xuan tossed out a sentence, boarded the carriage, and headed to the Ink Lotus Pavilion.
As for the patrol, he wouldn’t bother with that!
"Whoosh..."
Today was truly exhausting, after Chen Xuan left, Qin Gang lay directly on the chair, his legs propped up on the table, "Old Liu, arrange the patrol, I’m heading back early today to see if there’s any latest news!"
"Alright, know you’re tired!"
Liu He knew he wanted to slack off and didn’t expose him, as he didn’t mind handling it himself.
...
After eating and drinking to his fill at the Ink Lotus Pavilion, Chen Xuan and Pei Yuenan boarded the carriage to return to the Chen Mansion.
"Everything okay at the store today?"
Chen Xuan inquired with concern.
"No issues, Qin Gang dispatched several Chief Constables from the Divine Capture Bureau to oversee, no one dared to cause trouble. However, it was really chaotic outside today, with all sorts of rumors."
Pei Yuenan was still a bit unsettled at this moment.
Those people were reckless, claiming Youlan Mansion was doomed, Great Xia was doomed, which was simply courting death.
"Alright, there will be daily patrols in the future, it’ll be fine!"
Chen Xuan comforted her, thought Qin Gang was really good at dealing with matters, performing well.
Suddenly, the carriage stopped.
"Hmm?"
Chen Xuan furrowed his brows slightly.
"Lao Huang, what’s up?"
But there was no response.
"Lao Huang?"
Still no response.
Immediately, a sense of alertness arose in his heart, he released Pei Yuenan from his arms, "Stay in the carriage, I’ll go check it out."
"Be careful!"
Pei Yuenan nodded.
He got up and lifted the carriage curtain, seeing Lao Huang slumped over, motionless.
Chen Xuan extended a finger under his nose.
There was breath.
He was fine! Probably just unconscious!
But how did he manage to drive the carriage and faint? Without any noise?
Chen Xuan stood on the carriage, squinting his eyes, scanning the surroundings, the street was empty, he couldn’t sense anything.
He simply stopped looking and directly said, "Who is it? Since I’ve come out, shouldn’t you show yourself?"
"Keh keh keh..."
A sinister laugh echoed.
Chen Xuan tilted his head, trying to locate the source of the sound, but it seemed to come from multiple directions, making it impossible to find the person.
"This person... is not simple!"
He was slightly surprised, but after a long time, aside from the laughter, no one appeared, so he spoke again, "Since you don’t appear, then I’ll be going!"
He was about to set Lao Huang aside and drive the carriage himself.
"Keh keh keh... Deputy Director of the Divine Capture Bureau, Chen Xuan, young yet a master at the late stage of Fifth Rank Bone Polishing! Am I right?"
At this moment, a figure finally appeared in front of the carriage, dressed in black with a bamboo hat, hiding their face.
"Yes, very correct!"
Chen Xuan didn’t feel surprised at all, instead, a smile appeared on his face.
To intercept him here meant they had done their homework in advance.
But... Fifth Rank?
Heh heh...
"But I guess you didn’t stop me here just to say that, did you?"
Seeing the person had appeared, Chen Xuan was not in a hurry.
"Of course not, you’re not some great beauty, it’s not like I’d have such disgusting taste in the dark either, keh keh..."
The chilling laugh echoed again.
Chen Xuan found it repulsive, interrupting directly, "Speak up, what’s the matter? And your laugh is very disturbing, making this Chief very uncomfortable."
"You’re very bold, the last one who dared say my voice was unpleasant has been turned into a living puppet by me."
The voice of the man in black was icy, even atop the carriage, Chen Xuan felt a chill.
This person has murder in mind.
But... he was not afraid at all!
"So what if I’m bold, isn’t there a saying that goes risk-takers succeed? I’d rather be full from daring than starve from cowardice!"
"You... are interesting! No wonder someone fancies you, so I’m here to convey a message, as long as you pledge allegiance, you can get whatever you want: beauties, money, even cultivation techniques."
"Allegiance to whom?" Chen Xuan asked.
"If you can’t even guess this, I’d be very disappointed in you," the man in black mocked.
"Heh, just a casual question, but if I were to pledge, what would I need to do?"
"Once you pledge, you’ll know naturally. That’s all, I’ll give you three days to consider, I’ll find you again in three days!"
Finished speaking, Murran turned and intended to leave.
"Hey!"
Chen Xuan sighed softly.
He wanted to extract more information, but this person didn’t take the bait at all.
If that’s the case...
The Qi within his apertures began to stir restlessly, Chen Xuan extended both hands, and simultaneously used the Grasp Technique.
Immediately, two powerful forces enveloped the man in black.
"Since you’re here, don’t leave!"
Chen Xuan said indifferently.
"What?"
The man in black felt two strong forces enveloping him, unable to move!
"You are courting death!"
He shouted, then made strange sounds from his mouth.
Standing on the carriage, Chen Xuan suddenly felt dizzy, but in just a moment, he recovered.
But during that brief moment, the man in black broke free from the Grasp Technique.
He quickly fled into the distance with a look of terror.
"How could it be?"
Just in that instant, Chen Xuan shook off his spiritual power.
The intelligence was wrong!
He’s definitely not Fifth Rank!
It’s impossible for a fifth-grade expert to so easily shake off his spiritual power.
"Damn it, run? If I let you escape, I’ll end my life today!" Chen Xuan, having suffered such a loss, was instantly consumed with rage.
At this moment, the Flowing Cloud Body Technique was pushed to its utmost, and his figure instantly vanished, pursuing in the direction the black-clad figure fled.
At this time,
the black-clad figure felt Chen Xuan’s presence from behind; the arrogance he had before was gone.
If only he had two more legs.
However, the distance between them was getting shorter and shorter.
"Absorb Palm!"
Chen Xuan shouted, and the powerful attraction once again enveloped the black-clad figure.
This time, with not a hint of hesitation, he instantly caught up with the black-clad figure.
A fist struck towards the heart.
Simultaneously, the qi he controlled wreaked havoc inside the black-clad figure’s body.
"No...."
The black-clad figure let out one final scream.
Then their body went limp, and with a gentle push from Chen Xuan, there was a ’bang,’ and the black-clad figure fell to the ground.
"Courting death!"
Chen Xuan’s eyes gleamed coldly as he squatted beside the black-clad figure, rummaging through him, finally finding only a green jade pendant.
He was supposed to be an expert, right!
So poor?
With much disdain, he glanced at the black-clad figure on the ground, then swung out a palm.
"Bang!"
The black-clad figure’s corpse instantly turned into a cloud of blood mist, and Chen Xuan waved his sleeve, dispersing the blood mist into the surroundings.
"This Shattering Void Palm is so effective for destroying the evidence."
He nodded in satisfaction, then his figure disappeared into the night.
Inside the carriage, Pei Yuenan waited anxiously for Chen Xuan, deeply concerned.
"Why isn’t he back yet!"
"What if something happened."
Finally unable to sit still, just as she was about to pull open the curtain of the carriage, Chen Xuan returned.
"Are you okay?"
Pei Yuenan asked with concern.
"Relax, your husband is so powerful, how could anything happen to him." Chen Xuan said with a smile.
Then he slapped Lao Huang, sending a strand of qi into his body.
A moment later, he awoke.
"Master Chen.... I.... this....." Lao Huang began to panic.
He was clearly driving the carriage earlier, how had they stopped without him remembering anything.
"Alright, it’s nothing, you might be too tired lately."
"Thank you, Master Chen, I promise I won’t dare again." Lao Huang quickly apologized.
"Alright, alright, it’s okay now, back to the Chen Mansion!"
Chen Xuan waved his hand, then got on the carriage.
The carriage started moving again.
"Don’t speak of this when we return."
"Mm, understood!"
Pei Yuenan nodded slightly, knowing he didn’t want to cause them concern.
....
Late at night.
Pei Yuenan was already sound asleep.
But Chen Xuan was not sleepy at all, holding the green jade pendant he found earlier on the black-clad figure.
Originally, he thought such an expert would at least have a few cultivation techniques or martial arts.
Unexpectedly, except for this green jade pendant, he found nothing else of value.
"There’s nothing special about it."
After researching for a long time, he found nothing unusual.
"Try infusing a bit of qi into it."
Not caring whether the jade pendant could withstand the qi, he extended a finger, a wisp of silver qi appeared at his fingertip.
Chen Xuan controlled this wisp of qi, slowly bringing it closer to the jade pendant.
As soon as the qi contacted the jade pendant, it instantly merged into the pendant.
Suddenly,
the jade pendant emitted a faint green light.
"Ka-cha" a crisp sound, and the jade pendant split in two.
Meanwhile, a stream of green gas appeared above the bed.
Before Chen Xuan could react, it transformed into a green light that entered his forehead and into his brain.
In his mind appeared a blurry figure, back facing him, and a deep voice sounded.
"In ancient times, Martial Dao was divided into martial cultivators and spirit cultivators!"
"However, the world changed, and spirit cultivation became increasingly difficult! As time passed, inheritance almost ceased."
"Truly regrettable!"
As he spoke, the figure turned around, but Chen Xuan still couldn’t discern his features.
"I don’t know what your talent is like, but..... forget it, let fate decide." The words hinted at a trace of unwillingness.
"I am the Cyan Lotus Scholar, now passing this Spirit Cultivation method to you, if your talent doesn’t allow cultivation, I hope you could help me find a successor. Thank you."
Having said this, the figure actually bowed to him.
This.....
Chen Xuan was astounded, and couldn’t help but ask, "Senior.... are you alive?"
But strangely, the figure did not respond.
"Sigh!"
Instead, sighed softly, "I must go now!"
The figure turned into particles of green light, then in Chen Xuan’s mind appeared a new cultivation technique.
He suddenly opened his eyes wide.
The Myriad Manifestation Skill!
Is this....?
"System."
Chen Xuan hurriedly summoned.
