After the grain handover was complete and he returned, it was already evening.

Chu Danqing could only return to Lu Estate, but it wasn't without gains.

Chu Danqing obtained five thousand faction contribution points this time.

One faction contribution point for one unit of grain, it wasn't exactly unreasonable.

Adding the amount he had previously obtained, he now had a full six thousand faction contribution points in his hands.

To be honest, if he was willing to try a little harder, he might really have a chance to get the excellent-grade inheritance skill ranked first in the faction store.

However, he believed more in securing his gains, so the first thing he did upon returning to Lu Estate was to exchange for the "White Crane True Immortal's Notes, Volume 1."

Unfortunately, it didn't refresh after the exchange, only the number of available copies decreased. Otherwise, Chu Danqing would have planned to exchange all of his points for knowledge-based items.

The remaining three thousand faction points could only be exchanged for two copies of the Lu Clan Body Tempering Elixir.

Now he was hesitating about how to use these two copies of the Lu Clan Body Tempering Elixir.

The simplest way was for him and Da Bao to each take one directly, but there was another way to use them, which was as cultivation resources.

If he waited until his basic summoning skill reached LV.10, these two resources could increase the success rate of Da Bao awakening that enhanced bleeding skill.

After thinking it over and over, he decided to use them directly.

Reaching level 10 in a basic skill wasn't that easy, let alone continuing to cultivate it.

"Me, no need, Blood Rage is enough."

"Little Chu, you eat it." Da Bao refused Chu Danqing, and gave his reason: "You have more health, live longer."

What he meant was that it wouldn't be difficult for Chu Danqing to revive him if he lived, but if Chu Danqing died, Da Bao couldn't revive Chu Danqing.

Chu Danqing tried to persuade him several times, but Da Bao resolutely refused, saying that he didn't need it.

Seeing this, Chu Danqing could only consume them all himself.

The elixir melted instantly upon entering his mouth, quickly turning into a warm current that rose up after entering his stomach. After about two minutes, Dimension Paradise displayed a reminder.

[Your maximum health +300]×2

In all aspects, this elixir was far superior to the White Dragon Fish food that Chu Danqing had eaten before.

Whether it was efficiency or the increased limit.

Just after swallowing it, Chu Danqing saw that the enhanced attribute potion, of which there was only one left in the faction store, had also been reduced to zero.

Obviously, they were afraid that Chu Danqing would exchange them all, so they hurriedly exchanged it away.

"It's that flat-headed young man called Fierce Fist, right?" Chu Danqing didn't think that Tie Yan could gather fifteen hundred faction contribution points in such a short period of time.

"Fierce Fist's real goal is most likely the excellent-grade inheritance skill ranked first in the faction store."

"His faction contribution points may not be as high as mine, but exchanging for an attribute potion isn't difficult."

"He just didn't expect my efficiency to be faster."

"But my efficiency has also come to an end." Chu Danqing knew that it would be unrealistic to obtain such a large amount of faction contribution points again in the future.

He glanced at the time and felt it was still early, only a little after eight o'clock.

He simply took out the "White Crane True Immortal's Notes, Volume 1" and a desk lamp, and began to study late into the night.

Otherwise, relying on candles would be very harmful to his eyes.

Da Bao hand-cranked the generator for Chu Danqing to supply power for his reading.

Compared to the Holy Child of Azure Clouds, the content of White Crane True Immortal's notes had a different focus, giving Chu Danqing a broader knowledge base.

He read very slowly, carefully thinking about every line and every word, and gained a great deal.

As time passed, Da Bao, who was hand-cranking the generator for Chu Danqing, paused his movements and suddenly looked up at the ceiling.

The desk lamp went dark. Chu Danqing didn't ask what was wrong, but put the notes into his Storage Space and became vigilant.

Ready to take action at any time.

A fierce light began to appear in Da Bao's eyes, and he activated Rending Claws. His burly body nimbly climbed onto the beams.

The next moment, he directly lifted the roof tiles and jumped onto the roof, fighting with an unknown enemy.

Chu Danqing couldn't see. Life Link and Energy Link also required a target and couldn't penetrate obstacles, so he couldn't help.

However, this commotion quickly attracted the attention of various people in Lu Estate.

"How dare you break into Lu Estate at night!"

The first to arrive was Xie Liyang. A fire snake meandered over, followed by crackling sounds.

After about three minutes, Da Bao jumped down from the roof, his fur slightly charred, obviously affected.

"Ran away, it was a shadow, Ziren." Da Bao said.

Then Xie Liyang followed in, his expression slightly regretful: "It seems to be a demonic creature, I don't know where it came from. Does Offering Chu have any clues?"

Judging from the traces at the scene, Chu Danqing discovered it first, so he naturally asked him.

"Not very clear, I was reading at the time." Chu Danqing thought for a moment, and then said: "Perhaps it's the Way of Peace?"

If he had to say who he had offended, the Way of Peace was the only likely culprit.

Otherwise, since entering the trial, he had only offended those who were also Dimension Apostles.

However, those people had also joined the Way of Peace, so the ultimate conclusion remained unchanged.

As for Fierce Fist? The other party had joined the officialdom's camp, and he was probably busy contributing to the camp now, so he wouldn't have time to bother with him.

At this time, Lu Yin also arrived, and upon hearing Chu Danqing's words, his expression also darkened.

"It's highly likely that the Way of Peace is behind this," Lu Yin said. "That demonic creature bears a three-tenths resemblance to the Superior Corpse Squatter, but it's even more vile."

"Isn't the Superior Corpse Squatter..." Chu Danqing originally wanted to say that it was on Ji Zhen, but then he thought that a mere miner like Lu San could use the Three Corpses Severance Method to create the Superior, Middle, and Inferior Corpses.

So, creating another one wouldn't be difficult.

"Venerable Chu, you eliminated the Middle Corpse Stumbler and helped Ji Zhen suppress the Superior Corpse Squatter, you must have ruined the Way of Peace's plans," Xie Liyang, who knew the inside story, added.

"What's the plan?" Chu Danqing looked at Lu Yin.

Lu Yin pondered for a moment, then said, "Venerable Chu, please change your residence for the time being. I will look for you tomorrow to discuss this further."

"The rest of you, disperse for now, and don't spread this matter."

Clearly, Lu Yin needed to prepare before he could make a plan.

The Way of Peace's power in Yangxian County was inferior to that of the Lu Clan, but they had countless believers all over the world.

Moreover, the Way of Peace's leader was the current National Preceptor, so he could be said to be at the height of his power.

After everyone had dispersed, Lu Yin continued, "This matter is all due to the Lu Clan, which has caused Venerable Chu to be implicated."

Chu Danqing immediately replied, "I eat the king's food and bear the king's worries. Young Master Lu, what are you talking about? This is my duty as a retainer."

His words made Lu Yin feel very comfortable, and he said, "Earlier, Venerable Chu said that he needed natural treasures to make up for Da Bao's congenital deficiencies. I have some leads on this matter."

"I will send someone to deliver them to Venerable Chu later tomorrow. If they are not to your liking, I will have the people in the estate find some more for you."

"It's getting late, Venerable Chu, please rest early." After saying that, Lu Yin also left.
