Who Told Him To Cultivate Immortality!
Chapter 102
Chapter 102: Lies Come Out of His Mouth
Tang Yuansheng, male, 102 years old, Nascent Soul Stage, currently serving as the Immortal Sect's Patrol Inspector.
He received a message from Chu Feng telling him to come earlier, so he decided to bring forward his schedule. He first arrived at Qinghuai County, which was only a mountain away from Yanjiang County.
"After crossing this mountain, we'll arrive at the location Chu Feng mentioned."
"Hmm?" Suddenly, Tang Yuansheng felt a strange fluctuation of energy. "What kind of energy is this?"
He followed the energy to the stable of a relay station. Inside the stable, an old horse with dragon scales on its forehead was snuggling up to a brown mare. It looked like they had a good relationship.
The servant of the relay station carried a basket of specially selected grass feed and put it in the horse trough. The old horse looked at it with disdain and had no intention of eating it.
Seeing the old horse like this, the servant whispered, "The white pony left and got together with the new horse so quickly?"
The old horse seemed to understand human language and glared at the servant. The servant did not dare to provoke this strange beast and hurriedly ran away.
The owner of the old horse had already finished all the top quality grass feed left here. After finishing all the top quality grass feed, the old horse's owner did not show up for a long time. The owner of the relay station guessed that something had happened to him or that he had died. After all, the old horse's owner had gone to Mount Song.
After finishing all the top quality grass feed, the owner of the relay station ordered the servant to feed the other grass feed. If the owner did not show up after a long time, he would use the old horse as payment.
In the end, the old horse did not care about the feed at the relay station and did not eat a single bite. Just like that, a month passed.
The owner of the relay station was terrified. This old horse was definitely not a simple strange beast with scales on its forehead. It was an extremely high level demonic beast that had already reached the realm of inedia!
Strange beasts were a species between demonic beasts and wild beasts. They had the bloodline of demonic beasts, but their bloodline was too thin. They did not even have the ability to use their bloodline. To outsiders, they showed signs of atavism. They grew scales, feathers, horns, and so on. Their bodies were stronger than wild beasts, but there was a limit to how strong they were.
Tang Yuansheng was overjoyed to see the old horse. This was actually a rare Dragon Horse. He just did not know how pure its bloodline was.
"If I hadn't been to the East Sea by chance, I wouldn't have recognized it." Tang Yuansheng was quite excited. This was a complete surprise.
The Dragon Horse was very rare, and there was one in the stable of this remote county. It must be that the owner of the Dragon Horse did not recognize the treasure, and the Dragon Horse had not awakened, so it was gathering dust here.
"As a Nascent Soul expert, I have never had a suitable mount. This must be an opportunity bestowed upon me by the Immortal Immortal upon seeing my sincerity!"
Tang Yuansheng prayed to the Immortal Immortal for a moment before jumping into the stable.
The old horse looked back at Tang Yuansheng and ignored him. It continued to cuddle with the little brown mare.
"Pitiful Dragon Horse, you don't know how noble your status is, falling in love with a mortal horse. Come with me, I will let you know how powerful you are!"
Tang Yuansheng reached out his golden hand, wanting to take the old horse away. The old horse kicked back and broke Tang Yuansheng's hand. Tang Yuansheng's chest tightened, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His breath instantly weakened.
He looked at the old horse in fear. He no longer had the excitement from before. Instead, it was replaced by endless fear. He turned around and ran.
There was definitely a powerful expert who lived here and raised the Dragon Horse as a mortal horse in the stable!
His actions just now definitely could not be hidden from the powerful expert. He quickly ran and hoped that the other party would spare his life on account of his ignorance!
The old horse let out a loud roar, showing off his strength to the little filly.
Tang Yuansheng ran for a while, but he did not see the powerful expert capture him. He knew that the other party did not care about his actions.
"Wa!"
He spat out another mouthful of blood. He casually found a place where there was no one and sat cross-legged. He took a pill and recovered from his injuries.
The two hooves just now had greatly damaged his vitality.
When he opened his eyes again, he heard a rumbling sound coming from the other side of the mountain, as if something huge had fallen.
"It's already night time?"
Tang Yuansheng was a little surprised when he saw that the sky was already dark. He didn't expect that it would take him an entire day to recover from his injuries.
Now that he had recovered some of his injuries, he had no worries about protecting himself. Therefore, he crossed Mount Song and arrived at the landing site of the flying boat. He saw Chu Duanzhu was pierced by Lu Yang's sword and no longer had any breath.
"… Is this the surprise that Little Chu mentioned?"
It was hard to say whether he was happy or not, but Tang Yuansheng was definitely shocked.
Before he came, the Immortal Sect's upper echelons had asked him to pay attention to Lu Yang, Meng Jingzhou, and Brutal Bones. They had even given him portraits.
Now, he had to pay attention even if he didn't want to.
"Who are you?!" Lu Yang raised his sword and looked at Tang Yuansheng cautiously.
Tang Yuansheng looked at Lu Yang with a faint smile. "Lu Yang, how dare you point your sword at me?
I am Tang Yuansheng, the Inspector of the Immortal Sect. "
When Lu Yang found out about Tang Yuansheng's identity, he gestured for Lan Ting to leave quickly. It was not easy to explain Lan Ting's existence to Tang Yuansheng.
"So it's Inspector Tang."
Lu Yang was more polite, but he still looked at Tang Yuansheng suspiciously. Obviously, he didn't completely believe the other party's identity.
Tang Yuansheng disdained to explain to Lu Yang and asked, "Why did you kill Li Shouyi?"
Li Shouyi, Yanjiang County's County Chief, was Division Master Chu's real name. Tang Yuansheng was used to calling him Little Chu.
Lu Yang said in a deep voice, "Because he almost exposed his identity as a disciple of the Immortal Sect!"
"Oh?" Tang Yuansheng looked at Lu Yang with interest, waiting to see what kind of explanation he could give.
Suddenly, there was a commotion at the foot of the mountain. Fang Qingyun had brought a large group of people here to check on the situation of the flying ship's crash. There were also doctors in the group who were responsible for the rescue.
"Let's leave first!"
Tang Yuansheng was still seriously injured, so he didn't want to meet with the authorities. With a wave of his sleeve, he brought Lu Yang and the other two away.
Tang Yuansheng familiarly led the three of them into Yanjiang Branch, which was the safest place in Yanjiang County.
"Now tell me, Li Shouyi is very careful in his work. How did his identity get exposed?"
Lu Yang told Chu Li everything about the Life-reversing Formation and said, "Branch Master Chu … Oh no, County Chief Li's plan can be said to be meticulous. First, he made Yi Zhanhong the scapegoat. Then, he secretly set up the Life-reversing Formation. As long as the small flag was destroyed after that, there would be no trace left."
Tang Yuansheng nodded. Li Shouyi had always been cautious when doing things. He had used the extremely unpopular Life Reversal Origin Array. There was nothing to nitpick about this plan.
"But the accident still happened. The three of us opened a barbecue restaurant here. This kind of place is most suitable for collecting local intelligence. We noticed a disciple of the Moon Laurel Immortal Palace passing by this place. She seemed to be proficient in formations and saw through the life-reversing talisman on the flag!"
"We can't touch the disciples of the five Immortal Sects. We are worried that County Chief Li will be exposed and the entire Immortal Sect will be implicated, so we advised him to go into hiding. However, he said that it is a critical period now and he needs to use the Life-reversing Origin Formation to advance to the Nascent Soul Stage. We have no choice but to kill him before the Great Xia catches him and eliminate all future troubles!"
"You also noticed the people from the government just now. The leader is the chief of detectives, Fang Qingyun. Why did he bring so many people? He must be stopping the Life-reversing Origin Formation from activating and arresting County Chief Li!"
Tang Yuansheng nodded. He thought that Lu Yang and the other two did the right thing. The fact that a disciple of the Moon Laurel Immortal Palace was in Yanjiang County could be investigated. It couldn't be a lie. Li Shouyi really valued advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage.
Normally, Branch Masters were in the Nascent Soul Stage. Yanjiang County was a small county, so the Branch Masters were in the Jindan Stage. If Li Shouyi wants to be promoted to a place with developed cultivation, he must advance to the Nascent Soul Stage now.
It was the same for his official status. If his realm was not high enough, it would be very difficult for him to be promoted.
Brutal Bones looked at Lu Yang in surprise. In their plan, they didn't meet Tang Yuansheng after killing Branch Master Chu. They also didn't think of the reason for killing him. How did Brother Lu come up with it so easily?
Meng Jingzhou secretly gave Lu Yang a thumbs up. The reason that Lu Yang came up with was almost the same as the one he made up on the spot.
