Chapter 23

Although there is an extra condition that it can only be taken in a near-death state.

For Ying Zheng, it still holds a fatal temptation.

Ying Zheng did not hesitate and immediately gave an order.

"Someone, summon Li Si to me!"

As soon as Ying Zheng finished speaking.

Someone immediately bowed and left.

Ying Zheng's eyes were filled with hope.

He could not help but pace back and forth.

From the time he learned he only had one year of life left, only half a stick of incense had passed.

The appearance of the Longevity Pill and the Withered Wood Meets Spring Pill made Ying Zheng's heart unable to remain calm.

He knew that Heaven would not leave a man without a way!

He believed that he could defy the heavens and change his fate!

And successfully extend his life!

……

Great Qin.

Qizhou.

Spring Water Immortal-Asking Pavilion.

Second-floor pavilion.

Inside the private room.

Wei Zhuang, with his white hair, and Zhang Liang, in his Confucian robes, looked at the Azure Cloud Ranking in the firmament.

They were quite engrossed.

Zhang Liang said: "There are truly many talents in the Great Ming Dynasty."

"This Gong Jiu, at such a young age, has already achieved so much."

"He is quite extraordinary."

Wei Zhuang said: "Since they can make the Azure Cloud Ranking, they naturally have ability."

"This is not surprising."

Zhang Liang smiled faintly and did not say more.

At this time.

They saw Wei Zhuang's name suddenly appear on the Azure Cloud Ranking.

Wei Zhuang's pupils constricted.

Zhang Liang laughed.

"Brother Wei Zhuang, congratulations."

"Your name is on the Azure Cloud Ranking!"

"Above the azure clouds."

Wei Zhuang looked at the introduction about him on the Azure Cloud Ranking.

His expression remained cold.

For Wei Zhuang, these things were not actually important.

What he was concerned about was what kind of reward the Heavenly Dao would give him.

However, when he saw that his lifespan was only a mere thirty-three years.

Wei Zhuang was also stunned.

Zhang Liang looked astonished.

"How can this be?"

"Brother Wei Zhuang, your lifespan is only thirty-three years?"

"How is this possible!"

"With your ability, Brother Wei Zhuang, it is impossible that you would only live to thirty-three!"

Wei Zhuang experienced the initial surprise and quickly calmed down.

He was a calm person by nature.

He said indifferently: "Drifting in the Jianghu, how can one not get cut?"

"I am not made of iron; since I am human, there will always be a day when I die."

"It seems my fate, Wei Zhuang's, is not very good!"

As soon as Wei Zhuang finished speaking.

The Heavenly Dao reward had already appeared on the Azure Cloud Ranking.

Zhang Liang saw the appearance of the Withered Wood Meets Spring Pill.

Joy immediately appeared on his face.

"Brother Wei Zhuang, it seems that although your fate is not good, your luck is quite decent!"

"The Heavenly Dao has rewarded you with a Withered Wood Meets Spring Pill!"

"This is a treasure pill that can increase lifespan by twenty years!"

When Zhang Liang finished speaking.

A golden light streaked across the firmament.

It flew down toward the Spring Water Immortal-Asking Pavilion.

The golden light flashed.

It entered the private room.

It floated in front of Wei Zhuang.

Wei Zhuang's expression was calm; without pausing, he directly took the "White Hair Thousand Flow Technique" and the Withered Wood Meets Spring Pill wrapped in the golden light into his hands.

At this moment.

Zhang Liang's expression suddenly tightened, and he said: "Brother Wei Zhuang, it seems we cannot stay here for long."

"You have obtained the Withered Wood Meets Spring Pill that can extend life by twenty years!"

"That is a full twenty years of lifespan!"

"Who knows how many people will take risks for this!"

"More importantly, Ying Zheng!"

"Ying Zheng only has one year of life left!"

"Next, he will surely do everything in his power to get the Withered Wood Meets Spring Pill from you!"

"I think you should find a place to hide first!"

A flash of ruthlessness crossed Wei Zhuang's face.

"If anyone wants to take the Withered Wood Meets Spring Pill from my hands, they will have to pay with their life!"

……

Spring Water Immortal-Asking Pavilion, first floor.

Li Zhang and the crowd of onlookers looked at the Azure Cloud Ranking in the firmament.

They were still gossiping about Gong Jiu.

As a result, very soon.

Wei Zhuang's name appeared on the Azure Cloud Ranking.

Wei Zhuang, Ghost Valley successor, supreme leader of Liusha!

These words fell into the eyes of the crowd.

It was simply astonishing.

Qizhou is the place in the Great Qin Dynasty with the most open-minded atmosphere.

The Jixia Academy pioneered the trend of freedom of speech.

The people of Qizhou were all filled with a sense of gossip.

The Azure Cloud Ranking itself made many people extremely curious.

The first person from the Great Qin Dynasty to make the list was the Great Qin Emperor, Ying Zheng.

As a result, Ying Zheng was exposed as having only one year of life left.

No one expected that the second person to make the list would be Wei Zhuang!

The Ghost Valley successor has always carried a mysterious aura!

Many people were watching the Azure Cloud Ranking in the firmament without blinking.

They wanted to see if there were any secrets about Wei Zhuang.

However, it was a pity.

The Azure Cloud Ranking did not expose any other hidden identities of Wei Zhuang.

However, Wei Zhuang's lifespan of only thirty-three years.

This still caused a lot of surprise among many people.

"A dignified fifth-grade Grandmaster, and he can only live to thirty-three!"

"This is too miserable!"

"Yes, Wei Zhuang is thirty now; doesn't that mean he only has three years left to live?"

"Are all the people from our Great Qin who make the list people with little time left?"

"The Qin Emperor is like this, and Wei Zhuang is the same!"

However, very soon.

The direction of the crowd's discussion changed.

"Good heavens!"

"A Withered Wood Meets Spring Pill that can extend life by twenty years!"

"This is too powerful!"

"This Wei Zhuang is truly lucky!"

"He was not going to live long, but the Heavenly Dao rewarded him with a great gift!"

"Pfft, what's there to be envious of!"

"Even if this Wei Zhuang is allowed to live for another twenty years, he would only live to fifty-three!"

"This person is just short-lived; he can't live a long life!"

Duan Yu and Lian Lian Chengbi listened to the discussions of the people around them.

They kept shaking their heads.

Duan Yu was very curious about Wei Zhuang.

"The supreme leader of Liusha."

"The successor of Ghost Valley's vertical and horizontal strategies."

"What kind of person is Wei Zhuang, really?"

Li Zhang said from the side: "Young Master Duan seems very interested in this Wei Zhuang!"

Duan Yu smiled: "Just a little curious."

"For such a figure to have only thirty-three years of life is truly a pity!"

Li Zhang said: "Drifting in the Jianghu, one cannot help oneself!"

"People like Wei Zhuang, who walk on the edge of black and white, are like lonely ghosts."

"You never know whether tomorrow or an accident will come first!"

Duan Yu heard these words from Li Zhang and said with deep conviction: "Young Master Nangong's words are truly full of Buddhist philosophy!"

At this time.

They saw a golden light streak across the horizon in the firmament.

It flew into the Spring Water Immortal-Asking Pavilion.

The crowd of onlookers shouted: "Everyone look, everyone look!"

"A golden light has flown into the Spring Water Immortal-Asking Pavilion!"

"On the second floor!"

"Could it be that Wei Zhuang is in the Spring Water Immortal-Asking Pavilion?"

For a moment.

Everyone inside and outside the Spring Water Immortal-Asking Pavilion.

Was extremely surprised.

Noisy sounds immediately erupted.

Lian Lian Chengbi saw this and looked at the second floor with some curiosity.

"Wei Zhuang, is he really here?"

……

Great Qin.

Qizhou.

Outside Sanghai City.

Mohist secret stronghold.

The leaders of the Mohist School, as well as Ge Nie, looked at the Azure Cloud Ranking in the firmament.

Their expressions were varied.

At this time.

Wei Zhuang making the list caused another wave of astonishment among the group.

Dao Zhi saw Wei Zhuang make the list and cursed angrily.

"Wei Zhuang!"

"This dog thief!"

"To think he could even make the Azure Cloud Ranking!"

"What right does he have!!"

Gao Gao Jianli appeared very calm.

"Wei Zhuang is indeed powerful."

"A fifth-grade Grandmaster realm."

"Potential index seven stars, combat power index eight stars, danger index six stars!"

"Wei Zhuang's danger index is second only to Ying Zheng among all those who have made the list!"

"This shows Wei Zhuang's formidable nature."

Da Da Tiechui, who was to the side, said in a muffled voice: "What's so powerful about him."

"No matter how powerful, doesn't he only live to thirty-three!"

Dao Zhi said: "Look, everyone!"

"The Heavenly Dao rewarded this guy with a Withered Wood Meets Spring Pill!"

"This pill can extend life by twenty years!"

"How can this be!"

"If this bastard Wei Zhuang is really allowed to extend his life by twenty years, there's no telling how much trouble he will cause us!"

"No, we must seize this Withered Wood Meets Spring Pill!"

Gao Gao Jianli, however, shook his head and said: "Among us, apart from Mr. Ge Nie, who has the strength to fight Wei Zhuang?"

"The rest are no match for Wei Zhuang!"

Dao Zhi said: "If we can't beat him, we'll steal it!"

"That should work!"

"Stealing things is what I'm good at!"

Gao Gao Jianli shook his head and smiled, looking at Ge Nie, and said: "Mr. Ge, what do you think?"

Ge Nie heard this, and a strange look flashed in his eyes.

He and Wei Zhuang were disciples of the same master.

The feelings between them are hard to explain in a word or two.

When Ge Nie saw that Wei Zhuang could only live to thirty-three.

Ge Nie still felt very sad.

However, seeing that Wei Zhuang had obtained the Withered Wood Meets Spring Pill rewarded by the Heavenly Dao.
