Tianji Pavilion Intel Exposed! Three-Hundred-Year Ginseng! Please Vote with Recommendation Tickets
The long street at night.
There was only the sound of the night watchman striking his clapper.
Dressed in black, Qin Wang held the intel sheet and used the Flying Eagle Movement Technique to avoid the watchman. He landed before Guest's Arrival Tavern, swiftly pasted up a sheet of intel, then headed for the next location.
"Putting them up one by one myself is far too troublesome."
"If I could learn the Su Family's flying-dagger hidden weapon technique, I could tie the intel to hidden weapons and fire them out. Delivered in a flash without leaving a trace—how wonderful would that be!"
Half an hour later.
Qin Wang stood on Yue Ma Bridge in Yan Yun County, gazing into the distance with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
Firing out intel with hidden weapons was convenient and swift. It could expose things day or night!
He remembered.
Among Yan Yun County's Four Great Families, the Chen Family practiced the Chen Family's Purple Sun Cultivation, the Zhang Family excelled in swordsmanship, the Lin Family excelled in palm techniques, and the Su Family specialized in the Startling Swan Flying Dagger. But the Su Family was not a martial arts school. He could only wander around the Su Family's vicinity and see whether he could obtain intel related to their flying daggers.
"I'll first make a round around the Chen Family and the Su Family!"
Having made up his mind, Qin Wang used the Flying Eagle Movement Technique and rushed toward the Su Family and Chen Family.
Daily Intel Has Been Updated!
Today's Intel
1: Last night, you exposed how Chen Kun, the Chen Family head, killed Zhang Aofeng and intended to wipe out the Lin Family and Su Family as well. You obtained related intel: this morning, members of the Zhang Family will visit Chen Kun to demand an explanation, while the Lin Family and Su Family will join forces to stand on strict guard against Chen Kun. 2: Yesterday, you exposed Chen Kun's secret dealings and obtained related intel. Upon learning that Tianji Pavilion had exposed him, Chen Kun became deeply wary of Tianji Pavilion. He could not understand how he had offended the Hundred Knowledge Divine Lord, and he also changed his strategy for dealing with the Lin and Su Families. 3: Yesterday, you went to Yue Ma Bridge and obtained related intel. Zheng Kecheng's wife, Li Chunxia, learned that Zheng Kecheng had deceived her. Her heart turned to ashes, and she has already jumped into the river from Yue Ma Bridge and died. 4: Yesterday, you exposed Chen Hao and obtained related intel. Upon learning that County Magistrate Chen Hao lasted only three breaths in bed and intended to abandon the city and flee, Yan Yun County was thrown into an uproar. Everywhere, people cursed Chen Hao as a "dog official." Several thousand relatives of Medicine Persons headed to the county office to demand an explanation, escalating the situation. 5: Yesterday, you exposed the deceased Chief Constable Zheng Kecheng and Chen Hao and obtained related intel. The citizens throughout the city were inflamed with righteous indignation and set fire to the county office. Chen Hao fled in a sorry state through the county office's back gate. 7: Yesterday, you read Venerable Qingyao's handwritten Pill Comprehension Primer and obtained related intel. Before his death, Venerable Qingyao had once refined pills such as Body Tempering Pills, Qi Condensing Pills, and Qi Nourishing Pills. 9: Yesterday, you read Venerable Qingyao's Pill Comprehension Primer and obtained related intel. Venerable Qingyao's greatest regret in life was being unable to grow old together with Zhang Panpan. Even on his deathbed, he muttered, "Love rises with the wind; when the wind stops, the feelings remain hard to quell." 10: Yesterday, you wandered around the Chen Family, one of the Four Great Families, and obtained related intel. Chen Tianyu, the Chen Family's eldest son, will purchase a three-hundred-year-old ginseng in Qingyun County and bring it back to nourish his grandmother Zhuo Qiumei. He will pass through the Qingfeng Forest Path beside the Black River at 3 p.m. today.
"The intel has refreshed!"
Qin Wang looked at the intel, anticipation gleaming in his eyes.
"The Zhang Family knows perfectly well that Chen Kun killed Zhang Aofeng, yet they only dare come to demand an explanation and don't dare charge in and kill him. What a pity."
"I wonder whether the Lin Family and Su Family dare to do it?"
Qin Wang looked at the first and second pieces of intel, his eyes thoughtful.
Chen Kun of the Chen Family had cultivated the Purple Sunflower Swordplay and killed Zhang Aofeng. Moreover, his younger son Chen Yi had entered an immortal sect to cultivate. The Zhang, Lin, and Su Families were all deeply wary and did not dare fall out with him.
He could only think of another way to sow discord and weaken the Chen Family's strength.
As for the third piece of intel, given Li Chunxia's condition, even if she had not jumped into the river, she would not have lived much longer. Qin Wang had not expected her to choose Yue Ma Bridge for it.
"Chen Hao escaped through the back gate! That dog official!"
Looking at the fourth and fifth pieces of intel, Qin Wang narrowed his eyes.
Chen Hao had brought this upon himself.
"Body Tempering Pills, Qi Condensing Pills, Qi Nourishing Pills? Are these all pills used by immortal cultivators?"
Looking at the seventh piece of intel, Qin Wang grew even more expectant of Venerable Qingyao's cave dwelling. This Venerable Qingyao would be the one to guide him onto the immortal path!
"Hm? Chen Tianyu, the Chen Family's eldest son, will bring back a three-hundred-year-old ginseng from Qingyun County and pass through the Qingfeng Forest Path beside the Black River!"
Qin Wang's eyes burst with brilliance as he looked at the tenth piece of intel.
He was now at the second-rate realm.
It took two Qi and Blood Pills to raise his cultivation progress by a single point. If he got hold of that three-hundred-year-old ginseng, how much proficiency could it increase?
Besides.
This Chen Tianyu was Chen Kun's eldest son. If he made preparations in advance and ambushed him, he could weaken the Chen Family's strength and make Chen Kun spit blood in rage!
Chen Tianyu was not yet thirty. His cultivation was absolutely not second-rate!
Even if he brought guards, he could use the Beisu San Gong Xiang to catch them off guard. It would be a sure thing!
If things proved impossible, he could simply retreat with the Flying Eagle Movement Technique!
The next day.
The county office.
"Damn it! Last time it was the Hundred Knowledge Divine Lord, and this time it's Tianji Pavilion!"
"I have no idea how I offended them!"
Chen Hao's expression was incomparably gloomy as he paced back and forth in the rear hall.
Last time, after he had been exposed by the Hundred Knowledge Divine Lord, the Divine Constable Bureau had seemed to have some urgent matter or other and left without pursuing the matter.
He had been living in constant fear, agonizing over whether to surrender when Li Jingzhong's army arrived or abandon the city and flee.
He had never expected it.
That damned Tianji Pavilion had exposed him again.
"My lord! On my way here just now, I saw many citizens taking to the streets. Public fury is enormous, and they are cursing you in the foulest terms. Before long, they will reach the county office!"
"If we don't leave now, it will be too late!"
Ji Wuyuan urged anxiously.
Over the years, he had followed Chen Hao in plotting schemes, taking bribes, and bullying men and women. Whenever his lord got up to some antics, he even had to help push his backside. If the Divine Constable Bureau conducted a thorough investigation and Chen Hao was caught, he would certainly die!
When he had just arrived at the county office, he saw several thousand citizens taking to the streets, loudly cursing his lord as a "dog official." Public fury was immense, and there was no lack of rebels fanning the flames and stirring up trouble among them.
If they did not leave now.
They would definitely be beaten to death by the enraged citizens!
Even if they were not beaten to death by the furious citizens, once the Divine Constable Bureau returned, death would still be unavoidable.
The Great Cang Dynasty was now battered by wind and rain, with rebel kings rising everywhere. They might as well flee now while there was still a sliver of hope.
"Good!"
"We'll leave right now!"
A resolute look appeared on Chen Hao's face, and he nodded.
"My heavens! Yan Yun County's Arrest Bureau Chief Constable Zheng Kecheng was actually Prince Jin's spy! Isn't that terrifying?"
"Looks like the Hundred Knowledge Divine Lord and Tianji Pavilion are working together! They even knew that Lord Chen only lasts three breaths in bed. That's incredible!"
"Chen Hao, as the father and mother of the people, actually planned to abandon the city and flee! That bastard! He even tortured three boy concubines to death! His own backside isn't clean, no wonder he let Li Hongfei run wild!"
"Now, the relatives of all those Medicine Persons who disappeared over the years are heading to the county office to demand an explanation. Won't they turn the county office upside down?"
"..."
Disguised as a dark-skinned man, Qin Wang sat in a noodle shop selling chicken soup noodles. As he ate the noodles in his bowl and listened to the discussions around him, a thoughtful look appeared in his eyes. There are no fewer than several thousand relatives of those Medicine Persons. They're heading to the county office to demand an explanation from Chen Hao. I wonder what the outcome will be?
That's none of my concern. I should first head to the Qingfeng Forest by the Black River and make preparations to wait for Chen Tianyu.
Qin Wang took out some copper coins, paid for his noodles, then rose and left.
I've been writing this chapter since morning until now. I'm dizzy—I'm far too slow.
