Vitality, Part Two

"Come with me." Zhang Rongfang glanced at her.

Zhang Zhenhai was still dressed the same as before: ponytail, mask, tight-fitting clothes, and a simple cloak covering his face.

The cloak also bears inscriptions belonging to the Great Dao Sect.

Zhang Rongfang headed straight for the study, pushed open the door, and turned on the lamp.

The room was immediately filled with the aroma of burning whale oil.

This is a gift of Deep Sea Whale Oil from Isibass. It's about the size of a palm, and if used sparingly, it can last for more than a month.

Zhang Zhenhai looked at the open door. The room Kong Wu, with only Dao Child Zhang Ying standing alone among the rows of bookshelves.

She hesitated slightly.

Although Daozi often spent time alone together, this was the first time they had been alone in a room at night. "Come here," Zhang Rongfang turned around and gently beckoned to her.

"Yes. I was impolite." Zhang Zhenhai bowed his head solemnly and stepped into the room.

She paused for a moment, then turned and closed the door.

"Don't always be so serious." Zhang Rongfang glanced at her and noticed that she was tense and a little nervous.

"Yes." Zhang Zhenhai nodded.

Seeing that although he verbally agreed, his body remained unchanged, Zhang Rongfang was speechless and couldn't help but chuckle.

But I also understand that's just how they are.

He walked closer.

Can I see your hand?

Zhang Zhenhai trembled, and his fair skin visibly turned red.

"Yes!"

She raised her hand and gently placed it in front of her.

Then he lowered his head, not daring to look.

Although she had been looking forward to this day for a long time, when it finally arrived, she was completely unprepared and caught off guard.

Suddenly, she felt something warm and wet gently licking the back of her hand.

What was that?! Zhang Zhenhai didn't dare to look. Her body temperature rose rapidly, her legs trembled, and she almost collapsed to the ground.

But she persisted, striving to maintain her balance.

Absolutely not! I must not show my ugly, wretched, or impolite side in front of Daozi! Absolutely!! "Alright." Zhang Rongfang's voice seemed to drift from afar, hazy and indistinct.

He looked at Zhang Zhenhai in confusion, took back the Hot Towel in his hand, and smelled it.

A faint fragrance immediately wafted into my nose.

It was indeed her natural fragrance. Combining this with Hui Jue's earlier actions, Zhang Rongfang finally realized the truth.

"Zhenhai?" He glanced at Zhang Zhenhai, who remained motionless. "That's fine, thank you for your cooperation."

"Daozi! Zhenhai will definitely give birth to the child safely!!!"

Zhang Zhenhai suddenly straightened up and shouted loudly.

Her face was flushed, her eyes were glazed, and she was covered in sweat, her blood flowing incredibly fast.

"!?" Zhang Rongfang looked completely bewildered. What was she talking about? What child!?

A series of suppressed whispers could be heard from outside the door, clearly indicating that the guards were stunned by Zhang Zhenhai's "revelation".

Zhang Rongfang was speechless for a moment.

He never knew that Zhang Zhenhai was so innocent. Just touching hands and they jumped straight to the stage of pregnancy and childbirth!?

Even a hen can't lay an egg that fast, one a day. He wanted to explain, but seeing Zhang Zhenhai's beautiful eyes filled with longing as she looked at him, he hesitated.

Suddenly, he seemed to remember something and waved his hand in front of Zhang Zhenhai's eyes.

"Zhenhai?"

No response. "Zhenhai?!"

Zhang Rongfang patted her shoulder. He used a little force, applying the effect of the Yin Stream Breaking Limit Skill, which could vibrate the body and help regulate the flow of Qi and blood.

Sure enough, Zhang Zhenhai's eyes cleared up quickly. She opened her eyes wide and looked at Zhang Rongfang, quickly recalling the stupid thing she had just done.

His complexion quickly changed from red to dark red.

Thump! She fell to her knees, her face flushed red as if it were about to bleed.

"Zhenhai, this is extremely rude. Please allow me to take my leave!"

Bang! Before Zhang Rongfang could answer, she had already burst through the door and run away.

"."

Zhang Rongfang stared blankly at the door that had been kicked open, speechless for a moment.

He never expected Zhang Zhenhai to be so innocent.

"Daozi?"

Chen Han walked to the door with a blank expression, looking in the direction Zhang Zhenhai had left, not knowing what had happened.

"What is it?" Zhang Rongfang composed himself and regained his composure.

"Something else has just happened," Chen Han said in a deep voice. "Xue Ji Young Master Xue was ambushed and killed by a mysterious organization this afternoon. He is currently missing, and everyone around him, including that expert named Chen Zhong, has been killed without a trace."

"Not a single survivor?!" Zhang Rongfang's expression hardened.

That Chen Zhong is a true Three Voids Expert.

Even in places like Citong Great Capital, where there are many martial artists, this level is considered top-tier.

Moreover, Chen Zhong is very likely a Spirit Vein Worship God! "Daozi, how should we handle this matter?" Chen Han asked in a deep voice.

Zhang Rongfang pondered for a moment.

"The matter of Xue Ji should have nothing to do with us. The forces behind him are too powerful for us to handle. Immediately contact Princess Yunxi Ling Ting, as well as General Xue Chengsi, Xue Ji's father."

Then, we also dispatched personnel and mobilized the Garrison to patrol and search the vicinity."

"Yes!" Chen Han nodded solemnly. "Actually, judging from Xue Ji's arrival in Citong, it's likely that someone deliberately lured him here to take advantage of the situation."

"Well, Xue Ji... now we can only hope that good fortune will come to him," Zhang Rongfang sighed.

Actually, it was his turn to make the move, but unexpectedly, there was someone even more impatient than him.

Now that the person is gone, we can only give up.

"Is there anything else?"

"Yes, an hour ago, a disturbance occurred in the nearby Guan Yu City, and Prefect Li Hainian was assassinated in the middle of the night."

At the same time, the Garrison in the city was in turmoil, and a man Chen Eshan changed his tune and declared an uprising! "Chen Han said quickly.

"An uprising?" Zhang Rongfang closed his eyes and looked at his current attributes.

My health has finally reached 190.

"It's almost here! Governor Lord Zhao Yanting of Citong Prefect is about to have troops temporarily dispatched to suppress the rebellion."

"So they sent a message hoping that Daozi would help stabilize the security of Citong and prevent anyone in the city from taking the opportunity to cause trouble," Chen Han continued.

"Yes, that's no problem." Zhang Rongfang suddenly recalled the time when he was still at Qinghe Temple, when his master Zhang Xuan led a rebellion.

In retrospect, such an uprising was doomed to failure from the very beginning.

Just like right now, these so-called uprisings are nothing more than farces in the eyes of those in power.

Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, they are overwhelmed and oppressed, and they want to rise up in resistance.

In their view, those who ruled everything were the same Prefect, Magistrate, or higher officials as themselves; everyone was the same kind of person.

Are kings and nobles born with a special destiny?

But unfortunately, those who truly occupy the top positions may no longer be considered human. Involuntarily, he recalled his fight with Zuo Han today.

After the war, Zuo Han solemnly reminded him.

Besides the ability to form Absolute Defense Circle and Enemy Anticipation, the Grandmaster also has an absolutely powerful trump card.

That is the Final Form.

The Final Form is the ultimate Limit State that only a grandmaster can achieve after integrating and innovating his martial arts and reaching the pinnacle.

The Final Form is essentially the strongest Limit State.

The bursts are usually very short-lived, but their power far exceeds what ordinary people can imagine.

That's a level that martial artists below the Grandmaster level can't even imagine.

Zuo Han repeatedly reminded everyone not to underestimate any grandmaster.

Even if he is weak, he may be able to turn the tide once he uses his Final Form.

The best way is to prevent it from reaching the Final Form.

'If a Grandmaster were to combine this with the Extreme Realm, the power they would unleash would be unimaginable.' Zhang Rongfang could feel the overwhelming pressure just by imagining it.

Absolute Defense Circle, Enemy Anticipation, the Final Form.

Combined with absolute evasion like the Heavenly Maiden of yesteryear, she made precise attacks.

If one's cultivation level is insufficient, in a one-on-one confrontation, one might not even be able to touch the hem of such a powerful figure's robe.

Even if a martial artist Worship God a god is incredibly fast and strong, unless they are absolutely a level above him, they would probably be utterly slaughtered by such an opponent. Unconsciously, he thought of the Western Sect Kong Ding again.

Even if he could win, he couldn't kill him, lest he attract the Mahoraga behind him.

Fortunately, after discovering that it was Zhang Zhenhai's body odor, all clues were quickly disposed of, so the problem is not serious.

Looking at the flickering oil lamp, Zhang Rongfang's hopes for his new talent grew stronger.

Strength.

He's not strong enough.

If he possessed the strength to kill even Mahoraga, what would he need to fear? *** Fu Province.

Inside a deserted temple in the mountains.

A ray of White Moon shone through a hole in the roof, illuminating several figures huddled in a corner.

A cold wind howled as it poured into the dilapidated temple through its leaks.

Large patches of green mold and moss covered the walls, emitting a foul, pungent odor.

Click.

Suddenly, a faint sound came from outside.

The sound was like a mouse rustling through a dead tree, stepping on something.

Among the several Shadow resting against the wall, one of them suddenly woke up, looked around, and slowly stood up.

"Wrong!"

Suddenly he noticed something and hurriedly tried to wake his companion.

But a sharp, piercing sound came through a hole in the dilapidated temple wall.

When!!

The man drew his sword and deflected the arrows.

"It's another lackey of the Golden Wing Tower! Take the young lady away immediately!!"

The other Shadow quickly awoke and scattered.

A slender figure at the very center awoke from her dream, looking completely bewildered.

He had just woken up when he saw a series of Black-Clad Man clothes wearing Black Mask rushing in from all around him.

They outnumbered the group and quickly surrounded them.

"Follow me!" The first figure to stand up roared, slamming his knife backward.

The wall cracked and collapsed.

Several people surrounded the slender figure and quickly drove away into the distance.

A few others stayed behind to cover the retreat.

"Whoever captures Xu Qingyou will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver and promoted three ranks!!"

Shouts rose and fell around them.

The Black-Clad Man at the Golden Wing Tower quickly engaged the men covering their retreat.

The outer perimeter of the dilapidated temple.

Cheng Hui's face behind the mask was calm, but his gaze was sharp as he looked at one of the three major Human Seed that were on the run.

"Xu Qingyou is doomed this time. I want to see who can save her."

"What about the First Human Seed? Have they replied yet?" he asked his deputy.

"Tower Master, we have preliminarily narrowed down the escape area for You Shifei, the First Human Seed. We have mobilized the surrounding Garrison for a thorough search," the deputy replied respectfully.

"The investigation into the Third Human Seed cannot be stopped either; all three must proceed simultaneously. Now that we have the full support of the Western Sect, if we don't achieve results quickly, we'll have no face to ask for credit for you in the future," Cheng Hui said calmly.

"What you say is Tower Master," the deputy said respectfully. "If it weren't for Tower Master releasing us from death row, we would probably be beheaded by now. We can never repay such a life-saving grace."

Cheng Hui remained noncommittal, taking those words with a grain of salt. He looked at Xu Qingyou and the others who were almost out of the Woodland in the distance.

There were also Mountain Forest Legion who had been lying in ambush there.

"Be careful. Although this Human Seed has great potential, they are young and not very strong. They must be surrounded by the protective forces that the Eastern Sect set up. They are good at hiding, so we need to investigate patiently," he warned.
