Chapter 471: Two Talents

Although Jing Sheng's vitality was temporarily preserved, his injuries were still worsening, especially the severe overdraft of blood energy in his body. If it was not replenished quickly, his physical body would sooner or later collapse.

After Hua Changxi left the Ghost Fire Well, she went straight to the Zhu Rong Tomb.

Once she entered the Zhu Rong Tomb, she condensed a fire axe and slashed at the blood-colored bone mountain. Soon, she had piled up a small mountain of Zhu Rong stones, the large ones nearly ten meters, the small ones one meter.

Putting away the Zhu Rong stones, Hua Changxi transformed into a scarlet shadow and returned to Lingguang Hall. Without any delay, she took the teleportation array back to the Pill Origin Peak secret realm.

Afterward, in the Pill Origin secret realm and the Pill Peak secret realm, she collected a batch of needed spiritual medicine and spiritual fruits, and teleported back to Lingguang Hall again.

Although Hua Changxi came and went in a hurry, she did not deliberately hide her tracks, so many disciples in the Pill Origin secret realm and the Pill Peak secret realm saw her figure.

Consequently, not long after, news of Hua Changxi's appearance spread among some people in the Pill Saint Hall.

"Now we can be sure, right? Hua Changxi is not the Lingguang Hall Master at all."

In the No. 10 Qihuang Pavilion, Tang Yufeng triumphantly poured a cup of spiritual tea for Gu Jinfan, who was lost in thought.

"Before, I said Hua Changxi was borrowing the rumors to act like a fox pretending to be a tiger, and you thought I was mentally retarded. Now you know my wisdom, right?"

"The Lingguang Hall Master suffered Heavenly Punishment and must have been seriously injured. If Hua Changxi were really the Lingguang Hall Master, how could she be running around in the secret realm at this time?"

Gu Jinfan ignored Tang Yufeng, picked up the teacup without a word, and took a shallow sip, a light of incomprehension flashing in her eyes.

The Ghost Realm battle had only passed for less than half a month, and Hua Changxi could act freely. It seemed that Heavenly Punishment was not as terrifying as the rumors said???

Spirit Realm Pavilion.

Xia Zhen was in a very good mood. He had the same view as Tang Yufeng: "I underestimated Hua Changxi before."

"I originally thought she wore her emotions on her sleeve and had no strategy. I never expected her to be so good at 'borrowing momentum'."

Listening to Xia Zhen's judgment, Xia Ji and Meng Qingyao said nothing, their eyes full of doubt and incomprehension.

The Imperial Family and other forces were also like this.

Just when some people were almost certain that she was not the Lingguang Hall Master because of Hua Changxi's appearance, news also came out from Lingguang Hall—the Lingguang Hall Master appeared in the Zhu Rong Tomb.

Once this news came out, all parties felt it was somewhat unbelievable—Hua Changxi had not suffered serious injuries under the Heavenly Punishment!

Lingguang Hall, Martial Arts Hall.

"Everyone listen to the order. From now on, it is forbidden to use 'Yiniantong' on the training ground."

Duan Jishan suddenly spoke loudly, startling the Zhu Que soldiers who were training. Among them, many hurriedly put away the Yiniantong in their hands.

Duan Jishan looked around at the Zhu Que soldiers, his expression serious.

"I know that some of you have complex backgrounds. Before this, some things were not easy to implement, so I turned a blind eye."

"But not anymore."

"I think you should still have some memory of the nine-story prison tower we saw a while ago."

"According to the opening speed of blessed lands like the Wutong Forest, I think that prison tower will also be officially put into use before long."

"After the training ends, you had all better go to the mountain gate and carefully memorize the Zhu Que Army discipline, keeping it firmly in your hearts."

"I don't hope that one day, I will have to escort some of you into that prison tower."

Hearing this, the Zhu Que soldiers were all silent, especially those who had used Yiniantong to pass messages outside, their eyes showing grave expressions.

On the other side, Hua Changxi returned to the Ghost Fire Well again.

Once she returned, she piled up Zhu Rong stones around Jing Sheng and also took a batch for Fang Zhuyue, telling her to distribute them to the Zhu Que soldiers and other cultivators.

Rich blood energy continuously drilled into Jing Sheng's body, causing his complexion to start improving.

Seeing this, the heart Hua Changxi had been hanging finally fell back into her stomach.

Jing Sheng's injuries were, first, the backlash of bloodline divine ability caused by the power of Heavenly Punishment, and second, the collapse of the physical body caused by the exhaustion of blood energy.

Now, only after his physical body had enough blood energy nourishment and his physical body was stable enough could the next step of treatment be carried out.

Gongshu Xingyan watched Hua Changxi take out a large amount of spiritual medicine to stabilize the physical body for Jing Sheng, his eyes full of envy.

"She is truly wealthy!"

Gongshu Xingyan looked at Song Weimin: "Nowadays, is it that human cultivators are no longer short of resources?"

Song Weimin was speechless: "Senior, use your brain and think about it, is this possible?" Seeing Gongshu Xingyan looking at Hua Changxi with full envy, he shook his head.

"Didn't I say it? She is also a peak master of the Pill Saint Hall and manages the Divine Wood secret realm."

Gongshu Xingyan sighed: "I thought that there would be no shortage of cultivation resources in the future."

Song Weimin secretly rolled his eyes. Before the recovery of spiritual energy, there was never a time when people were not short of money; after the recovery of spiritual energy, there was never a time when cultivators were not short of resources. This was the normal state of life, okay?

"Magistrate Song, long time no see."

Song Weimin's head had just turned straight when he saw Hua Changxi standing in front of him and Gongshu Xingyan, his face surprised: "Hua... Hall Master Hua."

Hua Changxi glanced at Gongshu Xingyan and ignored him, looking at Song Weimin, and asked: "Cao Jun's death, have you found out who did it?"

Mentioning Cao Jun, Song Weimin's face suddenly became a bit ugly.

He really didn't expect that the collective disappearance of villagers in Nanxiang County was almost all done by Cao Jun helping the Prince of Shou.

Seeing him hang his head in silence, Hua Changxi added: "I killed him."

Hearing this, Song Weimin looked up at her abruptly.

Hua Changxi curled her lips: "Why, do you want to avenge him?"

Song Weimin shook his head and denied it: "He deserved to die, but... when I approached you, why did you lie to me?"

Hua Changxi sneered: "Are you sure I lied to you? I generally don't lie to people. At most, I just didn't tell you that I killed him."

Song Weimin recalled the scene at that time and found it was indeed the case, puzzled: "Then why are you telling me now?"

Hua Changxi was very direct: "Naturally because you have value, and I cannot use someone who holds a grudge against me."

Song Weimin was stunned, then gave a bitter smile: "In front of you, the Lingguang Hall Master, I am just a loose cultivator, what value can I have?"

Hua Changxi: "Don't belittle yourself. In Nanxiang County, you are very popular with the people."

Hearing this, Song Weimin's pupils flickered, and he had a guess in his heart, looking at Hua Changxi uncertainly: "What does the Hall Master want me to do?"

Hua Changxi: "Before, I had no time to attend to it, so the Nanxiang County seat has always been in the hands of the Imperial Family. Now, I want to take back all the management rights of Nanxiang County."

"You are very familiar with people's livelihood, so I want to hire you to take charge of the people's livelihood affairs in Nanxiang County."

Song Weimin had seen Hua Changxi's straightforwardness. Didn't she even want to "come and go" and pull a bit? So direct, wasn't she afraid he wouldn't agree?

Gongshu Xingyan on the side also opened his mouth in surprise, shaking his head, but in his heart, he was sighing that having a big family and a big business was so generous!

Hua Changxi looked at Song Weimin: "Are you willing?"

Song Weimin wanted to agree immediately. After being dismissed, he had always been concerned about Nanxiang County. In his heart, Nanxiang County was his root, but the words changed when they reached his lips: "What if I don't want to?"

Hua Changxi smiled: "It doesn't matter, you can refuse, but in that case, you have to repay my life-saving grace."

"I saved your life, you admit it, right?"

Song Weimin nodded.

Hua Changxi continued: "Then it is only right and proper for you to repay me. I don't want you to do anything else, just help me cultivate a qualified management talent to take charge of the people's livelihood affairs in Nanxiang County."

Song Weimin stopped testing and said quickly: "I was just joking, of course I am willing to take charge of the people's livelihood affairs in Nanxiang County."

Hua Changxi did not hold on to it and said directly: "That's good. I will help you heal your injuries first. After your injuries are healed, I will arrange for a team of Zhu Que soldiers to escort you to take over the Nanxiang County seat."

Seeing Hua Changxi about to take Song Weimin away, Gongshu Xingyan asked urgently: "Then what about me? What should I do?"

Song Weimin hurriedly helped speak up: "Hall Master Hua, Senior Gongshu is a refining master, very powerful in refining."

Hua Changxi raised her eyebrows: "Surname Gongshu?"

Seeing Hua Changxi's reaction, Gongshu Xingyan immediately straightened his waist: "That's right, I am the refining master Gongshu Xingyan."

A trace of surprise flashed in Hua Changxi's eyes, but it was quickly hidden: "Senior Gongshu's injuries are not light. You should think carefully about what price you are going to pay to exchange for recovery?"

Gongshu Xingyan's face collapsed: "Why didn't you ask Song Weimin to pay the price?"

Hua Changxi glanced at Song Weimin: "Because he is a person chosen by the people of Nanxiang County, and you, to me, are a zero-like existence."

Gongshu Xingyan was angered: "I am a zero?! Go out and ask about my name, how many people want me to refine for them?"

Hua Changxi's expression was flat: "No matter how famous you are, to me, you are not essential."

Gongshu Xingyan was anxious: "Since I am not essential, then let me go."

Hua Changxi: "That won't do. You must first repay my life-saving grace before you can leave."

Gongshu Xingyan widened his eyes.

Hua Changxi: "Rest assured, I am very fair. I save your life, and you help the Zhu Que Army refine military equipment for a hundred years, and then we will be even."

Gongshu Xingyan laughed in anger.

Hua Changxi ignored him: "Think about it carefully." After saying that, she took Song Weimin, who was full of sympathy, and left. ===== CHAPTER 472 =====
