C183 He Was His Disciple
Not long after, under the escort of several soldiers, a man with a dispirited face and a lot of blood stains was brought over. Clearly, he had suffered quite a bit of torture.
Upon seeing the old man, a glimmer of hope lit up in Chen Survival's eyes. He hurriedly shouted, "Grandfather, Grandfather, save me! Save me!"
"Evil creature! What did you do!?"
The old man's face was filled with anger. Although he represented the Chen Clan and had some influence in the court, he rarely went to manage the affairs of the steward, which was usually left to the current Grand Commandant, who was Chen Qiusheng's father.
Chen Qiusheng was instantly stunned on the spot by the old man's roar.
Emperor Chiang coldly snorted and said faintly, "Let Zhen tell you. That girl was originally brought into the palace. She was guarded by Zhen's personal guards and later was taken out by your grandson and his men. Some of Zhen's personal guards were bought over. Hmph. What a great ability. "
"What!"
The old man felt his vision blur, and he almost fainted. Fortunately, the person behind him reacted fast enough to stop him in time.
Entering the Palace to snatch people and buying the personal guards of the Emperor, no matter which one it was, it was an act of contempt towards the dignity of the royal family. That was a serious crime of exterminating all nine generations of the family.
The old man's face was as pale as a sheet of paper. His lips kept trembling as he pointed at Chen Qiusheng with one hand. He wanted to say something but was unable to. In the end, it turned into a few dry coughs.
Chen Qiusheng hurriedly knelt down and said with a trembling voice, "No... It's not like that. Your Majesty, that woman is a member of our Chen Family. Isn't it your reward? I just... I just..."
"Enough."
Emperor Chiang waved his hand and said, "I don't want to argue about this matter anymore. For the sake of your Chen Family's contribution to our Chiang Country, if that girl is alive, Zhen will only kill one person. If she dies, don't blame Zhen for being ruthless. "
"Your Majesty... I want to know who that woman is..."
The old man asked while trembling.
"She is the person that the Immortal Master wanted. Now, the life and death of the Chiang Country is in that person's hands. I cannot tolerate such accidents happening."
...
The next day, in a small courtyard in a remote part of the Imperial Palace.
Yang Xuan only opened his eyes when he felt the warmth coming from above his head.
He looked at the wooden sword in his hand and frowned.
He had been cultivating the Flame Separation Spell for the whole night. In the end, he discovered something strange, even though there was a trace of the Spiritual Force in his body. However, if he didn't use the wooden sword, he still wouldn't be able to circulate the Qi Circulation. Increase the cultivation of the Flame Separation Spell.
In other words, his cultivation now depended on that wooden sword.
"It should be the problem with that Spiritual Force. However, although I only absorb a small amount of Spiritual Force each time, if this goes on for a long time, the wooden sword will eventually run out of Spiritual Force."
He frowned. If he were to focus on his cultivation... If he allowed the Flame Separation Spell to succeed, then he wouldn't be able to use the wooden sword in the future. He could only use it as a tool for his cultivation. Otherwise... Once that strange power was lost, it would have a huge impact on him.
That was not a simple Spiritual Force of Heaven and Earth. It was like the essence of the wooden sword. Under the senses of his Heavenly Eye, every time he used the wooden sword, he would perform a major cycle. Furthermore, it was a kind of weakness that could not be recovered.
This was not like the Spirit Aura of heaven and earth. Once it was used up, there would be replenishment. He was absorbing the foundation of the wooden sword.
Fortunately, this type of weakness wasn't obvious. Even if the Heavenly Eye could only sense it in the slightest, if the wooden sword wasn't damaged in the slightest, then for a long period of time, there shouldn't be any need to worry.
After hesitating for a moment, he threw this matter to the back of his mind. After all, this was not a good time to meditate and cultivate.
After taking care of it, he left the courtyard. However, as soon as he opened the door, he saw a beautiful woman standing there.
"It's you."
Yang Xuan was a little surprised. This was the woman who had appeared in his room that day.
"Little girl Su Yue'er, thank you Immortal Master for saving me."
The girl bowed slightly, and the corners of her eyes were slightly red.
Yang Xuan was stunned. However, he quickly reacted. He nodded and said, "It's fine. This one said that I would ensure your safety that day. Now, I will naturally not go back on my word."
His gaze shifted slightly and landed on Chiang Hai, who was standing behind the lady. A strange expression appeared on his face, and he immediately walked over.
"Brother Jiang, I will have to trouble you with this matter."
"What are you talking about, Mr Yang? It's all my fault. Otherwise, nothing would have happened to Miss Su. Please don't blame me, Mr Yang."
Yang Xuan nodded and looked at Su Yue'er. "Miss, I have fulfilled my promise. You can leave by yourself. No one will look for trouble with you. I have something to do, so I will take my leave first."
"Immortal Master."
Su Yue'er knelt down and bowed to Yang Xuan. "Please take me in, Immortal Master. I am willing to follow Immortal Master and be your servant."
"What is the meaning of this?"
Yang Xuan frowned.
Su Yue'er raised her head and looked directly at Yang Xuan. Her eyes were clear and bright. "I want to enter the Immortality Path. I hope Immortal Master can take me in."
Yang Xuan was stunned for a moment, and a strange expression appeared on his face.
Although he had the cultivation of the Third Stage, he knew very little about the path of cultivation. Most of the knowledge came from the cultivation experience book Old City Lord gave him. He did not understand it, but now someone came to acknowledge him as his master?
He looked at Su Yue'er, who had a sincere expression on her face, and shook his head with a bitter smile. "I can't help it. Miss Su, it's better if you find another genius!"
"Please take in the Immortal Master and teach me some immortal spells. Otherwise, even if I leave the Imperial Palace, what can I do?"
Su Yue'er kept kowtowing. The limestone floor was cold and hard, cold and emotionless, causing traces of blood to appear on her smooth forehead.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The sound was not loud, but every strike was like a thunderbolt that struck Yang Xuan's heart.
His expression remained solemn, but there was some hesitation in his heart. He had never experienced such a scene before, and now he felt somewhat helpless.
Chiang Hai observed Yang Xuan's expression from the side. He did not stop the woman from doing anything, but quietly retreated. At the same time, he gestured for the maids and soldiers to retreat.
"You... You should get up first!"
Yang Xuan said with a frown.
Su Yue'er stopped and her clear and bright eyes lit up. She stared into Yang Xuan's eyes, "When the little girl was nine years old, her parents were killed. When she was thirteen years old, she was selected to enter the Palace and was willing to become a beautiful girl. She only wanted to enter the Immortality Path. I hope that Immortal Master will show mercy when I get my revenge. "
"Xiu Nu?"
Yang Xuan raised his eyebrows in confusion.
Su Yue'er smiled sadly and continued, "The so-called female is the person who serves you. She will be given the entry-level skill of Immortality Path. If you can cultivate it successfully, you will have the chance to serve the Immortal Master in the country."
