Washing clothes lane.
Butler Zhao cleaned the courtyard neatly. Although he looked very impressive outside, he always kept his duties in mind and worked diligently.
There were three other people in the courtyard, one was Fu Ling from Zi Ling Tang, one was Mo Huan, and one was Jiang Ming, all of whom were familiar with Chen Sheng.
"I don't know when the master will return, but I saw thunder and lightning falling."
Fuling looked at the sky of the imperial city again, but it was a clear sky, and there was no sign of the thunder and lightning that had been falling for a few days.
"A huge pill calamity has fallen, which means everything is going well."
Mo Huan could only think so. The spiritual herbs needed for the 314th level Divine Transformation Pill were extremely precious. If he messed it up, it would not end well.
"Almost a month."
Jiang Ming estimated.
"With Master's ability, it will definitely be accomplished. This time, many alchemy masters have gathered here, and it is really a soaring event."
Mo Huan thought about failure, but of course he also thought about success. The scale of this alchemy was huge, and Chen Sheng was the person in charge. Once it was successful, when the news spread, he would immediately become famous throughout the world and be respected by alchemists from all over the place.
"Extremely."
Jiang Ming and Fuling nodded.
"You guys really have confidence in me."
At this time, a young figure walked in front of the courtyard gate. He was dressed in white and seemed to carry a hint of the fragrance of elixir as he walked, making people feel like they were bathed in spring breeze.
"Master, you are back."
"The boss is back."
Several people were overjoyed. Chen Sheng had been in the palace for many days and they had no news of him, so they were worried. His return today meant that everything was settled.
But I didn’t dare to ask the result, whether it was good or bad.
"Don't worry, the 314th-level Divine Transformation Pill that I led has been successfully refined."
Mr. Chen knew that they were worried about each other, so he explained it, which made them even more happy and excited.
"Master, have you touched the fifth level of Dan Dao?"
Mo Huan's face flushed, he knew Chen Sheng's alchemy very well, he was at the top level of the fourth order, now it was possible to improve it.
"One battle will make the whole world know about it. From now on, the master's reputation will be praised throughout the vast land of the Yuanliang Dynasty."
Fuling had a look of reverence, as if he was looking at a living god. Once the elixir was successfully refined, Chen Sheng's fame spread throughout the Yuanliang Dynasty.
"Although I'm not powerful, my boss is powerful. Outside of Huanyi Lane, everyone will give me some respect."
Butler Zhao straightened his back. Although his family was ordinary, he had a powerful boss, so he never had to worry about other people's faces when he went out.
"Congratulations."
Jiang Ming bowed.
He was really happy for Mr. Chen, thinking that when he came from Fencheng, he was unknown and no one cared about him, but today he is about to become famous all over the world.
Although there have been some ups and downs along the way, it has been generally smooth. It is really a blessing from heaven.
"Prepare a banquet, and be happy today."
Mr. Chen smiled.
"yes."
Butler Zhao went straight out to buy some wine. This was an old tradition. Whenever there was a happy event, the boss and these old friends would get together and express their happiness.
The lights were just coming on, and the banquet table was shining brightly under the lights. The people at the banquet were all familiar with each other. If we really want to calculate, it can be said that Fu Ling from Zi Lingtang was added.
"Fellow Daoist Jiang, after the fight between you two brothers came to an end, the situation has improved a lot."
Mr. Chen raised his glass to indicate that he seldom asked about Jiang Ming's family affairs, for fear of touching upon his sorrow, but he would ask every once in a while to make sure he had an idea of the situation.
"I am an idle person, so I won't be an eyesore to him."
Jiang Ming smiled, with a relaxed look, but also a hint of embarrassment. The third young master of the Runan Marquis's Mansion was still a little lacking in quality.
"That's fine, too."
Mr. Chen was silent for a moment, then said with a sigh of relief that the issue of succession to the Runan Marquisate ended with the victory of the eldest son's line a hundred years ago. The brothers had been at odds with each other, fighting each other, and only after the death of a legitimate son did the family become desolate.
In that situation, it was already good enough for Jiang Ming to protect himself and enjoy the world of martial arts.
"My uncle is out visiting friends."
Perhaps because he didn't want the atmosphere to become quiet, Mo Huan mentioned something with a very stable mood, treating it as an ordinary matter.
"Mo Huan probably doesn't know the truth yet. Should I tell him?"
Chen Sheng took a look at Mo Huan and knew the truth that Mo Chen was about to die. The so-called visit to a friend was actually a revisit to the old place to put an end to the past.
He wanted to tell the truth, but after thinking for a while, he thought, "I'll tell you when the time comes."
This is Mo Chen's choice.
He could understand that telling them earlier would only add to the troubles for the younger generations. Matters of life and death are difficult for even immortals to overcome, let alone them.
"Master, it's time for Zi Ling Tang to establish a branch."
Fuling had the lowest presence. All the people at the banquet were Chen Sheng's friends. He had not yet reached that level and was very low-key. However, he still mentioned the development of Zi Ling Tang and the need for branches.
They are already very powerful, and when the news comes out that Chen Sheng has refined the 314th level Divine Transformation Pill, it will reach another peak.
By then, in order to fully take on this good fortune, a second Zi Ling Tang would be needed.
"You decide."
Mr. Chen said calmly.
"good……"
Fuling wanted to say something, but after thinking it over, he didn't say it. His skills in alchemy were mediocre, and if he couldn't do such miscellaneous tasks well, wouldn't he be useless?
…
One night later.
Mr. Chen set out on the road to the storage room. He couldn't tell what was in his mind. After arriving at the destination, he stopped for a while before walking in.
“It’s too quiet…”
Sure enough, the storage room has changed. It has become very quiet. Hu Yun has passed away. The storage keeper Shi visited his friends in the last moments of his life. Xiao Feng went to the border town to explore the world and seek the great path.
When he came, it was quiet and there was still some vitality, but at this moment, it had become completely silent.
"Master Chen, we meet again."
In the afternoon, someone Chen Sheng knew came. He was the chief drug inspector. He had a kind face and did not have a trace of the arrogance of someone sent from the palace.
"Why are you here, fellow Taoist?"
Mr. Chen asked.
"Send something."
The chief medicine inspector waved his hand, and an imperial edict appeared in the air, which was the appointment of the keeper of the treasure house. Before leaving, Mo Chen reported the name of his successor, Chen Sheng.
This time, Chen Sheng refined the 314th-grade Divine Transformation Pill, which was a huge contribution, so naturally the higher-ups approved it.
"I took it."
Chen Sheng was silent. Thinking that Mo Chen did not have much time left, he did not feel too happy about accepting the appointment as the keeper of the treasure house.
"The appointment letter is just a by-product. This is what I really want to give you."
The expression of the Chief Medicine Supervisor became serious, but he had been indifferent when reading the appointment letter from the Keeper of the Treasury before, because he had come into contact with many high-ranking officials and was an old man in the palace, so he was knowledgeable.
As a result, Chen Sheng's emotions rose slightly. He then watched the chief medicine inspector carefully take out a tiger talisman from his arms. The talisman had gold-plated patterns on it, which was full of the meaning of solidity and nobility.
"What's this?"
Chen Sheng opened his palm and took the tiger talisman, but he didn't know why. However, he could guess that it was Qin Lin who gave it to him specially.
"Master, this is a treasure you keep. Never show it to others."
The chief medicine inspector answered irrelevantly, and the look in his eyes was extremely complicated, as if he couldn't understand why Emperor Yuanliang gave this item to an outsider whom he had only met once.
Mr. Chen pondered.
…
God's capital.
As the most noble person in the Immortal Dynasty made a certain decision, the trajectory of fate was redrawn and headed in another direction.
"Why is it so difficult to get in and out?"
On this day, the monks who entered and left the Divine Capital found that the rules had changed. They were like a river that was stuck in a floodgate. Although they could still swim, it was much more troublesome.
"Boom boom boom"
At the same time, in the Judge's Mansion, 500 miles away from the capital, someone was beating the drum of complaint. It was a young man, as strong as an ox, and simple-minded. He seemed to have accepted his fate and would not turn back even if he hit a wall.
"Da Da Da"
The government office was wide open, and two rows of yamen runners walked out like fish and dragons. Their aura was terrifying, as if ghosts and gods were walking in the world, passing down laws and order.
"Who are you? Why are you beating the drum?"
Soon, the sturdy young man was brought up, and the Lord of the Judge's Mansion lowered his eyes with some majesty.
"I am a servant in Shendu. I am here to accuse Mi Feng of being cruel and brutal. He beat my boss to death."
The sturdy young man's body trembled, that was fear, but when he thought of something, a hint of anger appeared on his silly face, and his voice shook the government office, showing the youth's heroic spirit.
"Which place is Mi from?"
The Lord Judge nodded. He admired the courage of the sturdy young man. But when he heard a certain surname, he became serious and asked hurriedly.
"The surname Mi from Lieyuezhou."
The sturdy young man said in a deep voice.
You can see that the Judge's hand trembled, and he looked at the sturdy young man, paused for three or five breaths, and then said: "Are you serious?"
The Mi family of Lieyuezhou was one of the twelve major families in the Yuanliang Dynasty. It was full of powerful people, and it was very common for a descendant of the family to kill a tavern owner.
He couldn't imagine that a fellow would be so courageous as to sue Mi Feng.
“Seriously!”
The sturdy young man straightened his body. The shopkeeper was very kind to him, but he could not forget the look in his eyes. For the sake of his conscience, he had to go to the judge's house.
"There are witnesses and evidence. This is true, but it is difficult to handle."
The Judge was silent for a moment, then he leaned back on his chair and said, "Go back now. I'll let you know when there's news."
When he saw the sturdy young man, he felt that he was really righteous and could not bear to see him encounter an accident. So he left early and perhaps he could escape from the whirlpool.
"Sir, I'll wait for your news."
The sturdy young man responded.
He understood it in his heart, but he also had a hidden expectation. After all, the Judge's Mansion belonged to the Yuanliang Dynasty, not those aristocratic families.
"well……"
The judge was silent, sighed, recorded the case on paper, and sent it to the Ministry of Justice.
The rest is not something he can interfere with.
But there are so many cases like this, and this time they will most likely be kept sealed like before.
Accidents always happen silently.
This case was sent to the Ministry of Justice, where its authenticity was confirmed. Just as it was about to be sealed, it was taken over by the Xianglong Guards.
then……
"boom"
The Mi family's mansion in the capital city suffered a severe blow. The golden and jade gate was shattered, and it looked like a dusty paradise. Rich spiritual energy emerged from it and turned into substantial clouds and smoke.
"Who is this evil creature who dares to touch the gate of my Mi family?"
Someone roared loudly, and one could hear great anger in the voice. This was the Mi family's base in the Divine Capital, representing the reputation of the Mi family in Lieyue Continent. Now, someone was coming straight to their door. How could the arrogant Mi family cultivators not go crazy?
"The Dragon Guards have been ordered to arrest someone."
Outside, a group of monks wearing golden armor, golden masks, holding spears and carrying long swords spoke calmly.
"Longxiong Guards? Even if they are Longxiong Guards, they have no right to search my Mi Mansion."
The cultivators of the Mi family came out one by one. They knew how powerful the Longxiong Guard was. They were the most elite combat unit of the Yuanliang Dynasty and were under the direct jurisdiction of the Supreme.
In other words, this matter involved the will of the Supreme Being, but even so, they still stopped it, simply because this was the residence of the Mi family of Lieyuezhou in Beijing and it could not be offended.
"Mi is resisting stubbornly and has a rebellious heart. Kill him!"
The leader of the Longxiong Guards felt a murderous intent in his heart. With the secret order from the Supreme, he was not afraid. He stabbed out with his spear and cut a bloody path.
"puff……"
With this bloody blow, all the Mi family cultivators within a thirty-foot radius died on the spot, causing the scene to become extremely chaotic.
When had someone dared to kill someone in the Mi family mansion over a disagreement? And this time the murderer was the Longxiong Guard, who belonged to the Supreme Being. The deep meaning contained in this was too shocking.
“Boom…”
The Mi family leader who was in charge of this place rose into the sky, as if overlooking the place from a high place, observing the four directions, and wondering whether this was a misunderstanding or a deliberate conspiracy.
Before the Mi family's generals could fly away, an extremely powerful warrior from the Longxiong Guard took action. He stretched out one hand, which turned into a giant hand that covered the sky and killed him on the spot.
Blood and bones splattered everywhere, and there seemed to be a shrill sound, which made the cultivators named Mi look horrified and their spirits were greatly damaged.
then……
The Longxiong Guards plowed the Mi family mansion and suppressed all the Mi family monks on the charge of treason. Mi Feng, who was the source of the storm, was slaughtered like an ant in this turmoil by someone unknown.
…
"Whoosh"
A golden sword came out from the Ministry of Justice and almost instantly reached the judge's office five hundred miles away.
"There's actually a response to that case?"
When the Lord of the Judge's Mansion saw the golden sword, he was stunned for a moment. He thought that the matter would fall into oblivion without any news, but he did not expect that the approval would be given so quickly.
“Crack…”
He was a little curious and opened this sudden letter. Then he couldn't control his aura and lost his composure, causing spider web cracks to appear on the ground under the chair.
"My Lord, what's wrong with you?"
Someone asked curiously.
He has followed this man for many years and has always been a calm and steady person. This is the first time he has lost his composure like this.
The Lord Judge did not answer, but called the sturdy young man over.
"Mi Feng is dead."
He got straight to the point.
"real?"
In the government office, the sturdy young man was stunned. He guessed various reasons, but he didn't expect it to be the most vague and unreal one.
"real!"
The Lord of the Judge's Mansion was also confused, but that was the fact. Not only Mi Feng, but even the God City Mi Family Mansion was taken advantage of.
"Thank you so much, sir. You are a great judge."
The sturdy young man had no idea of the game involved. He just thought that the judge was doing justice, so he bowed sincerely and left happily.
Hearing this, the Judge's Mansion Master was in a state of confusion, and murmured, "Master Qingtian? I think the sky is really going to change."
