Ling Zhengfeng was quite satisfied, "It's going very smoothly. Can you feel anything different about yourself compared to before?"

Zhao Shu thought for a moment and said, "I just feel a little stronger and lighter than before. Well, I'm also a little hungry. I think I can eat a cow now."

"You idiot." Ling Zhengfeng laughed and scolded, "Okay, that's all for today's practice. You go to eat first. If I can't find you in a while, I will be anxious again."

After sticking out his tongue, Zhao Shu hurriedly walked outside the house.

"Shu'er, wait a minute." Hearing Master calling him, Zhao Shu turned around and said, "Master, what else do you have to say?"

Ling Zhengfeng looked at him seriously and said solemnly: "Remember what I reminded you, this matter must not be spread to Liu Er."

Zhao Shu also replied seriously: "Master, don't worry, the disciples understand the benefits."

"Okay, you go ahead."

Tonight, Zhao Shu really ate a lot, which shocked all the senior brothers, especially Mei Zhenyu, who asked in a loud voice: "Zhao Shu, are you being dragged by your master to do hard labor?

Is there any work more tiring than quarrying stones?"

Zhao Shu usually eats very little, and his dinner is just a bowl of gruel, but today he ate several large bowls of rice without any intention of stopping. He said in a slurred voice: "Try not eating for a day.

We still need to repair... we need to repair the door and cut down the trees." Zhao Shu was careless and almost spilled the beans.

"Oh? Master asked you to repair his door? Are you going to cut down trees? Are you still not going to give you food to eat? Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, you are just recovering from a serious injury, master's heart is too dark."

Lin Xiansheng didn't say a word, but looked at Zhao Shu with a deep look. After dinner, Lin Xiansheng went to Zhao Shu alone and asked, "Junior brother, are you hiding something from me?"

Zhao Shu didn't dare to look into his eyes. He twisted the corners of his clothes with his little hands and said, "No, senior brother."

"Really do not have?"

Zhao Shu shook his head and replied in a positive tone: "Really not."

Heaving a long sigh of relief, Lin Xiansheng said: "It's okay if you don't. If master forces you to do something you don't want to do, you must tell me and I will help you block it. Do you understand?"

"Moved, Zhao Shu thought to himself: "You really don't need to be forced by the master. Even if the master doesn't want to teach me, I will pull his trouser legs and beg him to teach me." But he said: "I understand.

I’m sorry, Senior Brother, but why would Master force me to do something?”

"Master..." Halfway through his words, Lin Xiansheng did not continue, "Forget it, it's okay. You can go and rest. It's been a tiring day. We have to go back to meditate later."

After returning to the house, Zhao Shu did not dare to exercise on his own. He had to close his eyes and reflect on the practice process in the afternoon. After thinking about it, he finally fell asleep because he was too tired.

"Pa!" A loud slap came in the hall, "You have found a good apprentice. When did I give the order to assassinate the Five Spirits?" He was still wearing a wide robe and a black mask, but this time he was not in the stone chamber.

In the middle, the black-robed leader was sitting upright, watching coldly as Tianshi hit the man kneeling on the ground with one palm after another. The man did not resist, the corner of his mouth was beaten with blood, and the black uniform on his body was already soaked with blood.

, the front of the black clothes gradually turned dark red under the candlelight.

"That's enough." The black-robed leader stopped him, "I believe Geng will not let his successor assassinate that child."

Tianshi fell to his knees with a plop, "Chief, but in this case, once Jiang Weicen's identity is discovered, the Shadow Sect may follow the clues and find other heavenly stems and earthly branches, or even more terrifying consequences. Tianshi is incompetent, and he actually cultivated

Please ask the leader to punish such a subordinate who fails to achieve anything but fails to do so!"

Geng, who had been kneeling on the ground without saying a word, heard what Tianshi said and said anxiously: "Chief, it's my subordinates who deserve to be damned for not being able to restrain their disciples. It's all my fault. I mentioned to Jiang Weicen before that the leader once said that Zhao Shu was not allowed to stay except Zhao Shu.

I have been troubled by problems..."

A cold light flashed in the black-robed leader's eyes, "Oh? So he also wants to share my worries? It seems that I have wrongly blamed you?"

Geng's forehead was dripping with cold sweat but he didn't know how to answer. He just kept kowtowing. After just a few blows, blood started to flow from his forehead.

"Sigh... Just back off now. I will decide your punishment later."

Seeing Geng motionless, Tianshi shouted, "Get out of here! Do you still want to disobey me?"

Geng trembled all over and had to leave first. Watching him exit the main hall, Tianshi pleaded with the black-robed leader again: "Chief, Geng was brought out by me. He is usually taciturn, but he never does anything for our 'Shenyin'

He is vague and has no second thoughts. I hope the leader will give him a lighter sentence based on his many years of merit."

"You don't need to say more. If it weren't for his hard work over the years, I would have given him a taste of the 'Heart-Eating Gu'. Can he still be alive today?"

Hearing the words "Heart-Eating Gu", Tianshi stiffened and said, "I dare to ask the leader how to punish him."

"In the final analysis, this is his apprentice's fault. Now that Jiang Weicen is dead, there is no way to punish him. However, as one of the Ten Heavenly Stems, Geng failed to fulfill his responsibility to supervise the people around him. He must not go unpunished and let him commit suicide.

Go and suffer the punishment of splitting souls and splitting gods to serve as a warning to others!"

Knowing that the leader had shown mercy, Tianshi knelt down and said, "Thank you so much, leader for showing mercy!"

The black-robed leader did not answer, and said to himself: "However, we did not gain anything from Jiang Weicen's death this time. We did not expect that Ling Zhengfeng was actually a master of the divine realm. How did he hide it from so many people for so many years?

The eyes are really incredible.”

"My subordinates were also surprised. What's even more puzzling is that this person joined the Yuxian Sect when the third divine monarch was in office. Now, so many years have passed, and he still hasn't left. It's so abnormal.

.”

"Well, I do know some magical methods to prolong life, and I've also heard of elixirs that can increase life span, but I don't know which one he got."

"But chief, wouldn't it be better for us if the Yuxian Sect is stronger? After all, our real enemy is the Shadow Sect, so why is the chief worried?"

"This Ling Zhengfeng is too mysterious. Master was wary of him when he was still here, but he was low-key at that time, so he didn't leave any useful information. At that time, I didn't understand why Master valued this person so much.

Now that I have taken office, I understand that no matter whether it is good or bad, enemy or friend, we will always have an inexplicable fear of people or things that we cannot see clearly or grasp. We are sad because we do not understand, and we are afraid because we do not understand.

, this may be human nature, so for people who are beyond our control, we still need to prepare early to avoid inestimable losses."

"My subordinate understands."

"What happened to the God-killing Formation?"

"My subordinates are doing their best to research, please rest assured, leader."

"Very good. This formation will become our trump card in the future. We must do it as soon as possible. I always feel that something is going to change today..." Looking at the worried eyes of the black-robed leader, Tianshi fell into silence with him.
