The Tianshui Sect's residence in Qinglian City is an extremely large and extremely luxurious manor.
This time we went to Kezhou to assist His Highness King Chen in annihilating the Blood God Sect. Hundreds of warriors from the Tianshui Sect came to the Taoist realm.
The first batch of Tianshui Sect disciples to arrive were led by the third elder.
The second batch of arriving disciples was led by Zheng Yuan, and included Bai Yifei, Zhou Xinjun and others.
Although they set out later than Lin Bai, the best shortcuts were available wherever they passed, so they arrived three to five days earlier than Lin Bai.
Arriving at the manor, the third elder asked the maid to prepare a small courtyard for Lin Bai so that Lin Bai could concentrate on healing.
"This elixir is called 'Nine Qi Qianyuan Dan', and it has a miraculous effect in healing injuries."
The third elder took out a treasure box from the storage bag and handed it to Lin Bai.
Lin Bai opened it and took a look. There was a round, green elixir inside, exuding a charming medicinal fragrance.
This elixir is obviously valuable, and it is also a suitable elixir for Taiyi Daoguo.
"Elder, this is too expensive," Lin Bai said.
The third elder laughed: "You killed dozens of people from the Heaven and Earth Sect in Xuanfeng City with one sword, and you were very happy. This pill can be regarded as a reward for you."
"In this case, the disciple will accept it."
Lin Bai stopped trying to resist, took the elixir, and followed the maid.
Now that Qiao Mo, Qin Yao, Yi Gu and others were not in Qinglian City, Lin Bai didn't have any relatives or friends to visit, so he simply went directly to heal his injuries.
The next step is to wait for the summons from His Highness King Chen.
Arriving at the small courtyard, Lin Bai immediately entered the quiet room and crossed his legs to heal his injuries.
Time flies, and half a day of research has passed.
At dusk.
Bai Yifei and Zhou Xinjun were sitting in their small courtyard chatting.
"I heard that Lin Bai has arrived at Qinglian City?" Bai Yifei asked calmly.
"Yes, it is said that he came back from Xuanfeng City with the third elder today." Zhou Xinjun said.
"Xuanfeng City, what is he doing in Xuanfeng City?" Bai Yifei frowned, unable to understand.
Zhou Xinjun shook his head slightly, indicating that he didn't know either.
Bai Yifei took a deep breath and said: "It's not easy to take action now in Qinglian City. Let's slowly look for opportunities. There will be opportunities."
Zhou Xinjun sighed softly. He was still not sure that Lin Bai was the murderer of Mu Huaqing, but for the sake of his master's death and to suppress this matter, he had to support Bai Yifei's decision.
"Senior Brother Bai Yifei, Senior Brother Zhou Xinjun, and Master Jiang Zhen have come to our house."
At this time, a Tianshui Sect disciple rushed in from outside the courtyard and said to Bai Yifei and Zhou Xinjun.
"Really?" Bai Yifei raised his eyebrows, with a hint of joy on his face.
Zhou Xinjun was doubly surprised and asked: "Senior Brother, who is this Master Jiang Zhen? Why is Senior Brother so excited?"
Bai Yifei said: "Second Junior Brother, I don't know that Jiang Zhen is the steward of His Royal Highness King Chen's inner palace, and is someone close to His Highness King Chen."
Zhou Xinjun was stunned for a moment, still a little confused.
Bai Yifei said: "Second Junior Brother, His Highness King Chen is now a hot candidate for the throne. If we can take this opportunity to board the ship of His Highness King Chen and help His Highness King Chen ascend the throne in the future, I am afraid that our cultivation will be greatly affected.
There are unprecedented benefits!”
Only then did Zhou Xinjun understand Bai Yifei's thoughts. It turned out that he wanted to make friends with His Highness Prince Chen.
"Does Senior Brother want to help His Highness King Chen seize the throne?" Zhou Xinjun asked.
Bai Yifei smiled and said: "Since ancient times, in the Chu Kingdom, every time a new emperor ascends the throne, it is accompanied by a bloody storm. But once this bloody storm is overcome, for the warriors who participated in the seizure of the heir,
, all have unprecedented benefits.”
"For example, the 'Five Families' within the Five Families and Seven Sects, didn't these five major families help the Chu Emperor ascend the throne and become the dominant presence in the Chu Kingdom today?"
"It just so happens that we are coming to Kezhou this time. If we have a chance, we would like to make acquaintance with His Highness Prince Chen first."
"It's also good to leave an extra path for yourself."
Bai Yifei explained with a smile.
Zhou Xinjun nodded and said: "It's not too late, let's go visit Mr. Jiang Zhen first."
"Okay, let's go." Bai Yifei and Zhou Xinjun left the small courtyard together and went straight to the front hall.
In the front hall of the manor.
Zheng Yuan and the third elder were chatting with a young man.
"Disciple has met the elder!" Bai Yifei and Zhou Xinjun walked in and bowed their hands.
The third elder smiled and introduced: "Master Jiang Zhen, these two are my disciples in Tianshui Sect, named Bai Yifei and Zhou Xinjun."
Jiang Zhen looked calm, glanced at Bai Yifei and Zhou Xinjun, nodded, and then looked away, no longer focusing on Bai Yifei and Zhou Xinjun.
Seeing that Jiang Zhen ignored them, Bai Yifei and Zhou Xinjun looked a little embarrassed.
Especially Bai Yifei, a surge of anger arose in his heart. After all, he was one of the candidates for the Holy Son of Tianshui Sect and a genius on the list of Taoist Gods of Chu State.
Jiang Zhen is just a steward in the inner palace of Prince Chen, how dare you ignore him like this?
"Two seniors, I'm here today to meet Brother Lin Bai. Please give me a briefing."
After Jiang Zhen chatted with the third elder and Zheng Yuan, he revealed the purpose of his visit.
Bai Yifei was stunned, Jiang Zhen actually came for Lin Bai?
"Lord Jiang Zhen, Lin Bai is a disciple of our Tianshui Sect. Did he do something wrong and bump into you?"
Bai Yifei asked hurriedly: "If it is true that Lin Bai was not a man of inferiority and bumped into you, I can help you teach him a lesson!"
Jiang Zhen glanced at the white clothes and found him a little annoying, with a look of disgust on his face.
Then, Jiang Zhen said to the third elder: "Seniors, please feel free to invite Lin Bai here. I am here on the order of His Highness King Chen."
The third elder's eyes rolled. He remembered that Zhu Mo had secretly said something to Lin Bai before returning to Qinglian City. It was estimated that His Highness Prince Chen was here for this reason.
"Go and call Lin Bai over!"
The third elder ordered the maid to go.
When Bai Yifei and Zhou Xinjun saw Jiang Zhen ignoring them, they felt a little embarrassed and stood aside in silence.
…
The third elder sent his maid to call Lin Bai, saying that His Highness King Chen had sent someone here.
Lin Bai walked out of the quiet room and followed the maid to the front hall of the manor.
At this moment, Lin Bai discovered that in the front hall, Zheng Yuan and the three elders were present, as well as dozens of Taoist warriors from the Tianshui Sect.
Among them are Bai Yifei and Zhou Xinjun.
When Bai Yifei saw Lin Bai, a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"I've met the elder!"
Lin Bai walked into the front hall and bowed his hands.
"This must be Brother Lin Bai. He is indeed a talented person, one of the best among men."
Before the two elders could speak, they heard a young man on the side saying with a smile.
Lin Bai looked around and saw this man. He had a fair face and handsome features, but he had a flattering smile on his face and a humble attitude between his eyebrows.
The third elder said loudly: "Lin Bai, this is the steward of Prince Chen's Mansion, Mr. Jiang Zhen."
Lin Bai bowed his hands and said, "Sir Jiang Zhen."
Although this warrior named Jiang Zhen's cultivation level is not high, he only has the cultivation level of a first-grade Taoist god.
But after all, he is the steward of Prince Chen's palace.
As the saying goes, the prime minister's concierge is a third-rank official, let alone the steward of the palace of His Majesty King Chen.
Moreover, the Chu State was still a dynasty-respected world, and it attached great importance to official positions.
"Yo yo yo, I don't dare to take it. I don't dare to take it."
This young man named Jiang Zhen seemed to have special respect for Lin Bai. He smiled apologetically and said, "Brother Lin Bai, I don't dare to call you 'Sir Jiang Zhen'. If Brother Lin Bai doesn't dislike it, then call me."
Brother Jiang Zhen is enough, after all, I am only a few years older than you."
Hearing this, Lin Bai frowned slightly. He didn't understand why Jiang Zhen was so humble?
The third elder and Zheng Yuan looked at each other, and they were also confused. The dignified steward of Prince Chen's Mansion was extremely arrogant even when he saw the second-rank minister of the dynasty. Why was he so respectful to Lin Bai?
The other Tianshui Sect disciples also looked confused.
