He suspected that this Miss Ming Yue was truly the same Ming Yue of Qingfeng and Ming Yue...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhen Yuanzi’s status is indisputable. In the Five Mansions Temple, calling out Qingfeng and Ming Yue is reasonable, but beyond the temple, in the mundane world?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps it’s indeed Ancestor Qingfeng and True Monarch Ming Yue!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But all the immortals and gods are nowhere to be seen, so what would make a mere Qingfeng and Ming Yue stay in the present world?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Zhang Fusheng pondered wildly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Chengzhong let out a bitter laugh:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What else can we do? Just continue waiting in the Western Sect, but who knows...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He suddenly fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside him, Li Qiuhua sighed softly and spoke on his behalf:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who knows if the Investigation Bureau still acknowledges us both.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her expression also turned dim, murmuring to herself:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t understand how the Investigation Bureau has become like this...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fusheng pondered for a moment,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>choosing not to tell Uncle Yu and Aunt Li that they were already known as spies. Miss Ming Yue spared them, which is already quite generous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he were to tell them, he couldn’t guarantee the safety of the two elders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment of thought,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fusheng said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uncle Yu, what do you think the Investigation Bureau should be like?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Chengzhong glanced at his severed arm and said in a low voice:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To track, encircle, and suppress evil cults, to protect the people, but.....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pointed out the window to the dim, blood-red city and suddenly became somewhat agitated, lowering his voice:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even the evil cult, even the evil cults are confined to the Lower Three Districts!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But what about them? They destroyed a city, an entire city!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fusheng quietly watched the blood-red scene outside, feeling a lump in his throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He suddenly spoke:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uncle Yu, Aunt Li, have you ever thought about becoming high-ranking officials in the Investigation Bureau?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Chengzhong and Li Qiuhua were taken aback. The latter reached out to feel the boy’s forehead, muttering to herself:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He’s not running a fever...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She immediately said helplessly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Investigation Bureau’s high positions, not to mention merit, just the cultivation realm... To be a Guardian Envoy in a higher city, one needs to be a Grandmaster.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And in the Provincial Government, in the Golden City, the four deputy directors are all in the Innate Realm, and the director is a Sixth Realm Celestial Human.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fusheng listened quietly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You eat a meal bite by bite, and walk a path step by step, right? If not today, then tomorrow? If not tomorrow, then the day after?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said softly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"One has to dare to think first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Chengzhong shook his head with a bitter smile:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fusheng, do you think everyone has talent like you? With your talent, your future in the Great Sect, Innate, and even the Celestial Human level might be within reach.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He seemed lost:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If I had known your talent before the Jiangzhou incident, I would have made sure you joined the Investigation Bureau, but now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Chengzhong spat heavily on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fusheng remained silent, his gaze deep and contemplative.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Normally, for a Martial Arts Master, perhaps that would be Uncle Yu and Aunt Li’s limit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that’s just in normal circumstances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his intervention, all impossibilities could become possible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He picked up the Calming Tea gifted by Miss Ming Yue, placing a tea leaf in his mouth to chew, cleansing the rising violence from his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fusheng considered himself a selfish person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But seeing individuals blown to bloody pieces, seeing an entire city lose its light, it still deeply troubled him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have the Contract, I’m never meant to fight alone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The High Heaven Association is one component, but what about beyond the High Heaven Association?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fusheng’s thoughts became clear; he must face not only the evil cults but also the Federation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What if Aunt Li and Uncle Yu truly became high-ranking officials of the Investigation Bureau?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, even with sufficient cultivation, it’s hard to ascend overnight; it requires accumulated achievements, but...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time, lifespan, cultivation, talent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These can all be traded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Power, naturally, can also be traded silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I need some ’subordinates’.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will leave Jiangzhou today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fusheng said in a low voice:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uncle Yu, Aunt Li, remember to keep this secret from my parents; you can reveal a bit, but don’t make them worry...and don’t let them think I became a monster.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two elders solemnly nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Keep in touch.\" Zhang Fusheng said at the end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>......\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the afternoon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s time to leave early.\" Miss Ming Yue softly said: \"The flesh and blood fungus is becoming increasingly active, it might not be tomorrow, but today that the divine descent completes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She led Zhang Fusheng through the empty, blood-colored dark alleys.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the past, every time passing through here, there would always be flashy young ladies teasing this frail-looking young man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fusheng felt a bit dazed, as if back to the past, each charming woman soliciting on the street,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>a ponytailed young lady would come to tease him, saying no need to pay, even giving him a small red envelope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Continue forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Passing by a clinic turned into a huge blood-colored pit, then a house covered in flesh, and then through this empty city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once a bustling city with millions of people, now utterly silent,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>High-rise buildings may still seal some survivors, but there’s no doubt, when the divine descends, they will all become nourishment for the gods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s go, let’s go...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miss Ming Yue held the young man’s hand, walking towards the city’s edge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She turned her head, instructing Zhang Fusheng:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You go first, after the divine descent, Black Eye will head to Chongyang City.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ve read Yuan Feidao’s file, remember, you have two senior uncles, the first, Chen Qiusheng, a Grandmaster, the second, Chen Daoling, also a Grandmaster.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s fine with Chen Daoling, Chen Qiusheng’s disciples are extraordinary, the oldest being in their forties, a top Martial Arts Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fusheng silently nodded:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did the Western Sect infiltrate the disciples of my two senior uncles too?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Inevitably.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miss Ming Yue extended a finger, lightly sliding it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The flesh curtain which Zhang Fusheng couldn’t break was torn apart, thin sunlight streamed in, illuminating the dark red city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Above the celestial vault, ten aerospace ships hovered, casting shadows over part of the land, exuding an indescribable sense of oppression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The aerospace ships, theoretically, could kill a Grandmaster—as long as they hit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fusheng only had time for a glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ten massive aerospace ships, whose main cannon could obliterate a mountain peak with one shot, suddenly twisted, exploding into ten giant fireworks!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fusheng noticed that Miss Ming Yue didn’t even move a finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s go.\" Miss Ming Yue spoke softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps it was an illusion, but since this woman, as if from a painting, learned that he anchored at the Five Mansions Temple,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>her attitude towards him...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>seemed a bit gentler.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ming Yue gazed at the young man, softly saying:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How about I give you some incentive.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Didn’t you say, that Tao Scripture in the Five Mansions Temple, when occasionally opened, its words were completely incomprehensible to you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you can acquire the Sea-Stabilizing Divine Needle Iron, I will teach you to understand it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"By the way, that Tao Scripture should be called the [Earth Book].\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fusheng smiled silently, thinking indeed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Land Immortal’s book?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ming Yue’s expression froze, a trace of annoyance flashed:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Land Immortal...heh.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t listen to the nonsense of those pseudo-gods who know nothing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s go, let’s go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless fragments of the aerospace ships, like falling meteors, descended from the sky, Zhang Fusheng took steps out of the blood curtain,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon looking back, the blood curtain had already healed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Am I...already out?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was still somewhat dazed, softly sighing, then his expression turned stiff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Problem arose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though not directionally challenged, he truly didn’t know the road outside of Jiangzhou.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no electronic devices on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, which way should I go?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where is Dragon Boat City located??\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How do I get to Chongyang City!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1526,"2026-06-08T09:33:25.351Z",1,"novelbin.me","e79ef0194ab1b6aefadcf2ac09697f5e6faca4b8a8f404d13ba0ba23aca3149c","secret-buyer-chapter-121","secret-buyer-chapter-119",547,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsecret-buyer-cover.jpg"]
