Chapter 372: Kind-hearted cultivator Vice Sect Leader Shi

Daoist Wu Yu and the Minister of Justice were looking up and down at the Disaster Venerable when they heard a light and very familiar voice coming from behind, startling both of them into a shiver.

"Master, Minister, long time no see."

"It's you!" Seeing the figure that had caused him to fall into this state, the Disaster Venerable screamed in terror, crawling forward desperately.

Daoist Wu Yu and the Minister of Justice looked sideways at the Disaster Venerable, thinking to themselves why this old guy's reaction was even bigger than theirs.

Both were intelligent people and immediately thought of the reason: this person had been hunted down by Yun Zhi, fled all the way here, and wanted to use the gloomy aura of the prison to cover himself, but was caught red-handed by the two of them.

"If I'm not mistaken, this person is the Disaster Venerable from the middle of the Great Yu Dynasty. He took advantage of the Qingzhou Grand Ceremony to order two ancient Integration stage cultivators to riot, forcing the Qingzhou Governor to have to use the national destiny and the phantom of the Supreme Sword to fight, in order to achieve the purpose of obtaining information."

"Fortunately, Junior Brother was sharp, noticed that the two ancient Integration stage cultivators were wrong, and notified me in time, which is why I captured him."

"If he had passed the information about the national destiny and the Supreme Sword to other ancient cultivators, it would inevitably have caused no small trouble."

"I said it was strange, how could an unknown Integration stage cultivator suddenly pop up? So it was another ancient Integration stage cultivator!" The Minister of Justice looked at the Disaster Venerable, gnashing his teeth.

Daoist Wu Yu was no longer laughing and joking. The disaster of the Great Xia, the ancient cultivators were one of them.

Yun Zhi's eyes narrowed slightly. This was the second time she had captured an ancient Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivator. Previously, she had reached a consensus with the other four Sect Masters of the Five Great Immortal Sects and the Xia Di, believing that ancient cultivators would wake up one by one as time passed. Now, the ones waking up were at the Integration stage, and in the future, they would be at the Tribulation Transcendence stage.

But judging from the actions of this ancient Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivator, he had long known about the national destiny and the Supreme Sword, so he should have woken up a long time ago.

"It seems that in places we don't know, many ancient cultivators are hiding." Yun Zhi's indifferent tone revealed a trace of displeasure. This group of dull-witted people, wanting to become immortals while calculating time and planning many things, brought disaster to the world.

The Disaster Venerable's body was withered, his aura on his last breath, as if he could die at any time. Seeing him in this state, Yun Zhi pointed her index finger lightly, pulling the Disaster Venerable's soul out.

It would be much more convenient to take the soul back.

Rather than carrying a flesh body on the verge of collapse, it was better to just have the soul.

Yun Zhi pulled an invisible chain with her right hand, and at the other end of the chain was the bound Disaster Venerable.

"By the way, Master, Minister, your capture of the Disaster Venerable counts as a great merit. I will inform the Xia Di of this matter." Before leaving, Yun Zhi suddenly said.

The two were stunned for a moment, then overjoyed. Such a great merit was enough for them to get out of prison.

They had thought they were going to miss the opportunity to get out of prison.

"Where to find ancient cultivators to take revenge?" Vice Sect Leader Shi pondered. He took revenge when he had a grudge, never overnight.

"Fellow Daoist has high morals, to specifically seek out ancient cultivators, Sun admires you!" A hearty laugh came, filled with joy.

Vice Sect Leader Shi felt this voice was somewhat familiar. He turned his head and looked, his eyelids jumping—it was the Governor.

The Governor cupped his fists at Vice Sect Leader Shi, his attitude sincere: "I don't know where the fellow Daoist is from, what is your name? To use the opportunity of undergoing a heavenly tribulation to seriously injure that Disaster Venerable is truly a great merit. Please follow me back to the mansion, there will definitely be a generous reward. Afterward, I still have to report to the imperial court to award you!"

The Governor, like Yun Zhi, had been following behind the Disaster Venerable, but his speed was not as fast as Yun Zhi's, and he hadn't seen the whole process of the matter.

When he arrived, Vice Sect Leader Shi was undergoing a heavenly tribulation while pulling the Disaster Venerable. The Disaster Venerable wanted to escape many times but was stopped by Vice Sect Leader Shi. Vice Sect Leader Shi even laughed gloatingly. One could tell he had a grudge against the Disaster Venerable. After the heavenly tribulation, Vice Sect Leader Shi even tied up the Disaster Venerable, fearing he would run away.

The Governor imagined the following picture: Vice Sect Leader Shi was a reclusive rogue cultivator who was undergoing a tribulation in an uninhabited place. He saw that the Disaster Venerable had a strong bloody smell and had done many evil deeds, so he used the heavenly tribulation to forcibly keep him.

A kind-hearted person!

The Governor was greatly moved and immediately expressed that he wanted to keep him and reward Vice Sect Leader Shi.

Vice Sect Leader Shi shook his head repeatedly. How dared he go with the Governor? If the Governor discovered his identity, wouldn't the Governor be promoted by one rank?

This wasn't what he said; it was recorded like this on the bounty list.

"Governor, you are too polite. I just can't stand these ancient cultivators who have no regard for the law and commit evil deeds, so I punished them. As for the reward, how can there be a reason to get a reward for chivalry? Isn't this putting the cart before the horse? Farewell!"

Having said that, he left in a hurry, not giving the Governor a chance to persuade him to stay.

The Governor looked at the disappearing Vice Sect Leader Shi and sighed sincerely: "Truly a reclusive, virtuous cultivator."

At the Qingzhou Grand Ceremony, the two ancient Integration stage cultivators had already been captured, their cultivation sealed, and they were being guarded by several Integration stage cultivators in turns. The imperial court would soon send the Luoshui Guards to take these two ancient Integration stage cultivators away, pick their meridians, and throw them into the heavenly prison.

The officials performed their duties and maintained order. The Governor was not there, so Xia Qun was the person with the highest position. He sat in the government office, coordinating and commanding, and everything was recovering in an orderly manner.

Saying it was recovering, in fact, the impact brought by this incident was not material, but more of a spiritual shock.

Ancient Integration stage, national destiny, Supreme Sword phantom, ancient Tribulation Transcendence stage, a mysterious great expert who could easily suppress the Tribulation Transcendence stage... these were not things that ordinary cultivators could come into contact with.

Let alone ordinary cultivators, even Lan Ting and the others were dazed, not having recovered their senses.

Lu Yang didn't have much of a reaction. What was an ancient Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivator? In his spiritual space, there was the number one Immortal of the ancient times, the head of the ten beauties of the ancient times, who talked about ancient secrets and involved Immortals. The Tribulation Transcendence stage didn't even rank.

He heard passersby discussing what had just happened.

"Fortunately, that great expert took action, otherwise we would have been in danger." A Spirit Condensation stage cultivator felt lucky. He had almost thought he was going to die. He now felt that being alive was truly very lucky.

His companion agreed with his point of view, the fear in his eyes not having completely faded: "Who says not? Speaking of which, what did that great expert look like?"

"You even forgot the appearance of your savior... That's right, what did that great expert look like? Was it a man or a woman?"

The two looked at each other, confused.

Passersby on the other side were also discussing the battle just now.

"Governor is amazing, resisting a Tribulation Transcendence level magic treasure alone."

"This doesn't count as anything. The Governor almost killed that ancient Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivator, especially that sword, it was heaven-defying!"

"Sword? What sword?"

"Your brain, it was made of... made of what sword?"

"Speaking of which, what weapon did the Governor use to defeat the ancient Integration stage cultivator?"

Both were full of question marks and soon forgot what had just happened.

Lu Yang frowned as he watched this scene, recalling in his mind: national destiny, Supreme Sword phantom, Eldest Senior Sister... he remembered it clearly.
