Chapter 207 - 140: Incense Burner, Expedition to Ming State_6
Because he truly had no idea what West Qi Kingdom was waiting for.
Such a large-scale battle couldn't possibly rely on the "feelings" of one Thousand Captain. The current plan, theoretically speaking, was without issues, and one could only take it one step at a time.
"Then, I shall take my leave."
Chen Sansi stepped out of the tent.
He looked at the soldiers coming and going, and couldn't help but feel a sense of poignancy; war was imminent again.
In these days, the world was truly in chaos.
However, before setting off, he still had an important matter to attend to.
The Taoists of Ci Yun Temple!
He needed to come up with a plan to take care of them first and probe their actual strength and intentions.
...
The next day, at Ci Yun Temple.
In a secluded pavilion courtyard.
A middle-aged Taoist with a ruddy complexion sat cross-legged, eyes closed in meditation, as a gentle spring breeze caressed his face, causing his long beard, which nearly reached his chest, to flutter along with his wide Taoist robe.
This man was none other than the current temple master of Ci Yun Temple, Yu Xuzi.
Qiu Mingzi appeared, interrupting the Taoist's meditation.
After a long while, Yu Xuzi slowly opened his eyes, "Brother, you have returned."
"Brother!"
Qiu Mingzi began, "I've given the item to that Chen kid. How are things going?"
"My gu has not responded."
Yu Xuzi shook his head slightly, "Either he threw it away or he destroyed it outright."
"No wonder he has repeatedly declined our invitations to the sermon conferences. It seems this kid has truly sensed something amiss."
Qiu Mingzi felt this was strange, "But... the ingredient in the Nourishing Spirit Soup is not of the mortal world, how did he detect it? Could it be Sun Xiangzong... Brother, this is a serious matter, what should we do next?"
"We'll probe further, and if that doesn't work, we'll find an opportunity to kill him."
Yu Xuzi spoke indifferently, "After all, he is only in the Refining Internal stage, and I have already achieved Meridian Passage. Killing him would be as easy as turning my hand over."
"Temple master, supervisor! Disaster has struck!"
While they were conversing, a young Taoist stumbled in.
"What is this panicked state?"
Qiu Mingzi scolded, "Speak up, quickly!"
"Liangzhou soldiers, Liangzhou soldiers!"
The young Taoist pointed in the direction of the foot of the mountain and said, "That Lu Ji, all of a sudden he's brought thousands of troops, surrounding the mountain, claiming someone has reported that we're harboring Witch God Sect Followers, and they want to
And their commonality was that they had both visited Ci Yun Temple and drunk the Nourishing Spirit Soup.
On the other hand, he wanted to see what kind of power the temple master of Ci Yun Temple possessed.
Chen Sansi wouldn't dare to take the risk alone.
Now, it appeared there truly had been a breakthrough in Meridian Passage.
But there was no Qingxuan Energy or Purple Energy within him.
He could be killed!
The prerequisite was to wait a while longer.
However, Chen Sansi needed more time to accumulate Spiritual Energy again.
Using the search as a pretense, he picked up the incense burner shrouded in Purple Energy, savored it intensely, feeling as comfortable as a fish in water!
If he could take it home, he could fully advance his Sword Qi Skill to proficiency or even to a small achievement!
Of course, not now.
To take an incense burner home in front of so many people would make it obvious that something was amiss.
Chen Sansi could only temporarily leave his incense burner at Ci Yun Temple.
Once the battle in Ming State was over, he would immediately return to retrieve it and take it home.
Alchemy furnace, the incense for cultivation, he would have everything all at once!
"Unjustly accused!"
The Taoists were still crying out their innocence.
Until soon after, a soldier discovered a blood-stained Vajra Pestle in the back mountain.
Cao Fan thundered with fury, "Old man, you still claim you're not colluding with the Witch God Sect!"
"Young Master, this is defamation, defamation!"
"Someone!"
Lu Ji commanded sternly, "Lock all the Taoists of Ci Yun Temple in Liangzhou Prison."
Watching as Brother Yu Xuzi and his fellow disciples were dragged away.
Chen Sansi breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Once they entered the prison and if they didn't die, they would still be stripped of their skins, unable to come out for a long while.
He could finally embark on the campaign without worry.
