However, everyone still found it difficult to believe that this corpse was the Demon Sect's Demonic Mask Zuo.
"What is that?" Suddenly, someone saw something underneath the body.
Everyone stepped forward, turned the body over, and saw a copper-colored iron plate under the body.
On the front of the iron plate is a magic word, but on the contrary, it depicts a mask.
Seeing this identity card, everyone felt their breathing become tighter.
After Zhou Cheng and others returned to the Zhou Mansion, Zhou Cheng used the Beiming Divine Technique and felt the smooth flow of internal energy through the Ren, Du, and Chong channels.
This morning, he had just broken through the second level of Qi refining. Unexpectedly, he would open up the third meridian tonight and break through to the third level of Qi refining.
Thinking of the Northern Ming God's ability to swallow up the Demonic Face Zuo's internal energy tonight, Zhou Cheng pondered. Normally, he competed with Qin Meng and Lin Ru, but the Beiming Divine Art did not swallow up the internal strength of Qin Meng and Lin Ru. Could it be that they were no match for him?
Is it necessary to have the intention to kill yourself?
Zhou Cheng decided to go to the Qingyao Mountains tomorrow morning to try to find some monsters.
As for tonight, Zhou Cheng continued to compete with Qin Meng on swordsmanship.
The next day.
Zhou Cheng got up early and arrived at the Qingyao Mountains with Qin Meng and Lin Ru.
However, after killing twenty monster beasts in a row, Beiming's magical power was still unable to swallow up the opponent's internal energy like it did last night.
Zhou Cheng had no choice but to return angrily.
Returning to Zhou Mansion, when passing through the hall, Zhou Wei and Luo Shui were talking about the murder of the demon-faced Zuo envoy last night.
The demon-faced envoy Zuo was killed, and even Emperor Dafeng was alarmed.
"Brother Wei, tell me, could it be those people from the palace who killed the demon-faced envoy?" Luo Shui asked.
Zhou Wei shook his head: "Probably not. His Majesty has already ordered an investigation. If it was the people in the palace who killed him, there is no way His Majesty would have anyone investigate."
"Judging from the traces of the fight at the scene, it should be four innate masters who surrounded and killed the demon-faced left envoy."
"One uses a knife, one uses a sword, one uses a spear, and the other uses a big bow."
"No one in the palace uses a bow."
When Zhou Wei saw Zhou Cheng come in, he stopped and said with a pleasant expression: "Cheng'er, come and sit here." He pointed to the seat next to him.
After Zhou Cheng and Xing Yao had a night of drinking the night before yesterday, Zhou Wei became friendly towards Zhou Cheng.
After Zhou Cheng sat down, Zhou Wei rarely asked Zhou Cheng about his cultivation situation, but instead told Zhou Cheng some things he should pay attention to when practicing in Wanxing Sect in the future.
Although Zhou Cheng and Xingyao agreed to meet at Wanxingmen in ten days, the journey is far away, so Zhou Cheng cannot make the journey tomorrow.
Originally, Zhou Wei wanted to go to Wanxing Gate with Zhou Cheng to attend his son's apprenticeship ceremony. However, there have been a lot of affairs in the court recently, and Emperor Da Feng will go to Canglong Mountain to worship heaven next month, so Zhou Wei can't.
I am out of business and can no longer accompany Zhou Cheng to Wanxingmen.
Hearing that Zhou Wei did not go to Wanxing Gate, Zhou Cheng's idea was followed.
Otherwise, it would be really uncomfortable to have Zhou Wei accompanying me on the road.
"Cheng'er, it's not peaceful recently. There are a lot of bandits. I'll ask Uncle Yan to accompany you." Zhou Wei said.
Uncle Yan, who has followed Zhou Wei for many years, is a master of the tenth level of Qi refining and the strongest under Zhou Wei.
Zhou Cheng smiled and said: "No, father, I just need Qin Meng and the others to accompany me."
Zhou Wei shook his head and insisted: "Let Uncle Yan escort you there, so that I can rest assured."
"Cheng'er, just listen to your father." Luo Shui also said.
Zhou Cheng was speechless, thought for a while, and said: "Father, mother, there is actually something I want to tell you. Qin Meng and his friends are not weaker than Uncle Yan."
Zhou Wei and Luo Shui were stunned, and then their eyes fell on Qin Meng, Lin Ru, Jiang Chen, and Lin Yu.
"Cheng'er, are you saying that Qin Meng and the other four are also masters of the tenth level of Qi refining?" Zhou Wei looked disbelieving.
Zhou Cheng nodded to Qin Meng.
Qin Meng understood and punched out with such force that the hall roared.
Zhou Wei and Luo Shui were stunned. Is this the peak of the tenth level of Qi refining?
After a while, Zhou Cheng left with Qin Meng and others. Zhou Wei and Luo Shui still had difficulty recovering from the wave of Qin Meng's fists just now.
Zhou Cheng recruited Qin Meng and others. Zhou Wei and Luo Shui didn't pay much attention to them before, thinking that Qin Meng and others were just ordinary ninth-level and tenth-level body refining masters.
But Qin Meng's punch just now made it difficult for the two of them to calm down for a long time.
In the evening, Zhou Wei and Luo Shui came to Zhou Cheng's courtyard. When they saw the seven Qin Meng in the courtyard, they felt something special in their hearts.
The two of them were sitting in Zhou Cheng's study, hesitating to speak.
"Father, mother, don't worry, Qin Meng and the others are absolutely loyal and trustworthy." Zhou Cheng knew what the two of them were going to ask.
Then, Zhou Cheng said: "This time, I will go to Wanxing Gate and take Qin Meng, Lin Ru, Jiang Chen, and Yang Yu. The three of them, Meng Siyao, Mu Ling, and Zhang Li, will stay in the Zhou Mansion.
Father, mother, you can go out and take them with you."
Zhou Wei and Luo Shui looked at each other.
Finally, Zhou Wei nodded.
Now that his heart is injured, it would be nice to have three more guards at the tenth level of Qi Refining by his side.
The next day, Zhou Cheng looked at the boxes of luggage one after another, and there were actually ten boxes. He couldn't help but said, "Mother, I just went to Wanxing Gate to practice. There is no need to bring so many things."
Luo Shui said, "I'm afraid it will take you a year and a half to leave. It's always good to bring more."
"You, when you arrive at Wanxingmen, you must listen to your master."
"You must get along well with your senior brother."
Zhou Cheng smiled bitterly: "Mother who knows."
In the morning sunshine, Zhou Wei and Luo Shui sent Zhou Cheng out of the capital and watched Zhou Cheng go further and further away.
"Cheng'er has grown up." Zhou Wei said with emotion as he watched his son's figure gradually disappear.
After leaving the capital for a long time, they arrived at a wasteland. Zhou Cheng put all the ten boxes of luggage prepared for him by his mother Luo Shui into the Heaven and Earth Cauldron, and then speeded up with Qin Meng and others.
The horses of Zhou Cheng's five men are all top-notch war horses, capable of traveling hundreds of miles a day and galloping along official roads.
In order to maintain the physical strength of the war horse, Zhou Cheng even took out a special elixir to replenish physical strength and gave it to the war horse to swallow.
The sky gradually darkened.
Zhou Cheng looked at the sky and saw a village in front of him, so he decided to rest one night in the village with Qin Meng and others before setting off again tomorrow.
The war horses had been traveling for a day, and even if they had some elixir to replenish their strength, they still couldn't bear it.
However, when I arrived at the village, I found that the village was in ruins and overgrown with grass. It was an uninhabited village.
Zhou Cheng and the others found a relatively complete yard and built a bonfire. Zhou Cheng took out the animal meat from the earth cauldron and put it on the bonfire. Soon, the aroma of the meat filled the air.
