Yang Zhen's internal energy circulated and his body was covered in sweat. After a while, he opened his eyes.
"Mister Yang Zhen, how are your injuries?"
Soon, County Magistrate Chen, County Deputy Zhang, Lee Hoon, Li Jubo, and Pei Yuan Wu from the Immortal Pavilion all surrounded him.
"I didn't injure any vital parts. I just need to rest for a while and I'll be fine."
Yang Zhen waved his hand. His face was still very pale.
This time, it was a huge blow to him.
Originally, he thought that his strength was already very strong. In the depths of his heart, he wondered if he could defeat someone of the same level of cultivation.
But in the end, he couldn't even take a single strike from the other party …
"Right, Mister Yang Zhen, do you know who that person is?
Does he have any grudges with you? "
Magistrate Chen hesitated and asked.
"It's possible to have a grudge in the Jianghu. But that person is a cultivator of the Immortal Dao. Based on my judgment, his strength is at least at the ninth level of the Qi Refining Stage.
Although I'm confident in my own strength, I don't dare to provoke someone of that level. "
Yang Zhen shook his head and turned to Pei Yuanwu. "Does Immortal Master Pei know about this?
After all, that person is the same as you, a cultivator of the Immortal Dao. "
"In Wujiang County, there is only one cultivator of the ninth level of the Qi Refining Stage. That is the old rogue cultivator, Old Wu.
But not long ago, he failed to break through to the next level and died.
As for the nearby cultivators of this level, although there are one or two of them, from the looks of it, they don't seem to be … "
Pei Yuan Wu thought for a while, but still couldn't think of anyone of the ninth level of the Qi Refining Stage that he knew could compare to this person.
"Is that so?"
Yang Zhen muttered. Suddenly, his expression changed. Ignoring his injuries, he quickly stood up and walked towards his room.
Seeing the scene in his room, he couldn't help but reveal a trace of shock. "As expected, the only thing that could make someone of that level remember me is that treasure."
"What is it?"
Everyone was curious.
"The Immortal Martial Treasure Vault, twelve pieces of gold paper.
I have a piece of twelve pieces of gold paper in my hand. It was hidden under the floor. "
As Yang Zhen spoke, his face revealed a deep sense of confusion. "But, how did he know that this thing was on me?
Also, how did he know that I hid the golden paper under the floor? "
The others were also somewhat puzzled, but their eyes flickered intensely at this moment.
Immortal Martial Treasury, twelve pieces of golden paper.
Even though it had been three hundred years, they were still familiar with each other.
That was because every ten or twenty years, a storm would arise because of the golden paper.
However, this time, the other party had barged into the government office so crazily and wanted to get the golden paper without caring about offending the court. Did this prove something?
Could it be that the other pieces of gold paper were also in his hands?
Their minds immediately became active.
…
Relying on the extreme speed of the Hundred Steps Wave-treading Technique, Ziyue soon left the direction of the Yamen.
After making sure that no one was following him and that he wasn't marked by any tracking methods, he completely retracted his aura and took a detour, silently returning to his residence.
Ziyue heaved a sigh of relief when he stepped into his room.
He hurriedly took off his night traveling clothes and cast a Spirit Flame Technique, completely destroying all traces of it.
Overall, this night's barge into the Yamen was quite successful. Not only did he escape unscathed, but he also successfully obtained his target this time, the last piece of the twelve pieces of golden paper.
"The twelve pieces of golden paper are all here. I'd like to see what changes will happen to them.
Will they really merge into one and lead me to the so-called Immortal Martial Treasury, just like the legends say? "
Bai Ziyue took a deep breath and began to look forward to it.
Without hesitation, he used his mind and in an instant, a total of ten pieces of golden paper appeared in his hands.
Immediately after, he took out two pieces of paper from his robes.
Buzz!
The moment the twelve pieces of golden paper touched each other, a trembling sound was heard.
Immediately after, a second, a third …
On the twelve pieces of golden paper, it was as if a kind of power had been awakened. All of them trembled, as if they were about to break free from his control.
Ziyue thought for a moment and released his hand.
One piece of golden paper after another flew out automatically and lined up with each other.
In the blink of an eye, a huge picture of mountains and rivers appeared clearly in front of his eyes as the twelve pieces of golden paper lined up neatly.
Ziyue already knew that this picture of mountains and rivers was a map of the mountains and rivers in Wujiang County. There was nothing special about it. At this moment, when he saw the twelve pieces of golden paper forming a picture again, his eyes widened.
A clear spot of golden light quickly appeared at a certain spot on the map.
"That's …"
Ziyue's heart trembled. Just as he was wondering, the twelve pieces of golden paper changed again.
Chi!
Chi!
Chi!
In an instant, the twelve pieces of golden paper mixed together and quickly became a whole. Then, they continuously melted, shrank, and thickened … After a series of miraculous changes.
Smack!
The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground was heard.
Ziyue hurriedly went forward and picked it up.
"The outer appearance hasn't changed much. It still looks like a piece of golden paper.
However, it has obviously become much thicker and looks more like a golden book.
Moreover, the map on it has all turned into nothingness. Wait … "
Ziyue thought to himself. Suddenly, he panicked and hurriedly poured his mental strength into it.
Buzz!
In an instant, a set of mountains and rivers appeared in front of his eyes.
Not only that, but even the golden mark that he had seen before had also appeared.
Vaguely, there was a small arrowhead guiding the way. Through the mountain and river map, Ziyue was surprised to find that the tail of the arrowhead was exactly where he was now.
"It's true. When the twelve pieces of golden paper are gathered, the location of the Immortal Martial Treasure Vault will automatically appear.
Moreover, it's not too far from where I am. "
Ziyue could not help but feel a sense of excitement in the depths of his heart.
…
The next day, the entire county government was in action.
Various officers, constables, and runners were all on the move. They patrolled the streets and carefully checked for suspicious people.
Even the Scorching Sun Gang was notified to cooperate with the government in the search.
"To be able to escape unscathed from the government office, and it is said that the other party is an expert in immortal cultivation.
He must be very powerful and not weaker than the man from the Di family who appeared in the Nine Seal Sect.
Although the Scorching Sun Gang is the biggest gang in Wujiang County, we can't afford to offend such a person.
Therefore, we can cooperate with the government office's orders, but we can't be too careful to avoid any mishaps.
Of course, if there is any news, we must report it to the gang first and let us decide on it ourselves. "
Jiang Tao sat at the head of the table and said in a deep voice.
"Who is it, Gang Leader?"
Everyone nodded quickly. Naturally, they knew that their Gang Leader did not want to offend this mysterious expert.
The other forces also had the same idea. Although the commotion was huge, they did not pay too much attention.
The huge commotion naturally attracted the attention of countless people.
With so many people, the news could not be hidden at all.
Then, the entire Wujiang County knew that an expert in immortal cultivation broke into the county government office at night and escaped unscathed …
When the news spread, it was even more shocking than the battle between the Scorching Sun Gang and the Nine Yin Sect.
How important was the county government office?
It was not an exaggeration to say that it was a dragon's lair or a tiger's den.
Back then, a first-class expert had set foot there and wanted to assassinate the county magistrate, Lord Chen. In the end, he did not come back. The next day, his body was found and hung in the market.
One could imagine how dangerous it was.
Now, they heard that an expert had set foot there again. Naturally, countless people were delighted to talk about it.
…
"Child's father, is it true that our Yue 'er has become the deputy gang leader?
I find it hard to believe. "
On a large merchant ship, there was a beautiful woman dressed in a red robe. Her face was ruddy, and she looked at the man beside her nervously.
The man's face was a little dark and his hands were rough, full of traces of labor. He was holding a child of one or two years old. His brows were deeply furrowed as he said, "I don't know either.
How powerful is the Scorching Sun Gang?
Take our Qinghe Town as an example. We have many industries under their control.
It is said that the Scorching Sun Gang is the biggest gang in Wujiang County, and their industries are all over the place.
As for the deputy gang leader, he is second only to one person and above everyone else.
Although I don't understand our Yue 'er and know that he is very capable, I still find it hard to believe that he has become the deputy gang leader.
Most importantly, it has only been three to four months since he arrived in Wujiang County. It has not even been half a year. "
As he spoke, Bai Yong smiled bitterly.
Sometimes, the growth of a child was a good thing to him. However, if the child grew up too quickly, he would be shocked.
"Why don't we ask again?"
He Honghua could not help but look hesitantly at a tall man who was standing straight not far away.
That man had a strong back and a strong waist. His thick and strong arms were as strong as a horse. In terms of strength, even Xu Ming, the strongest person in Yunye Village, was far inferior to him.
She was a little afraid just looking at him.
However, according to this man's self-introduction, he was her son, Yue 'er's subordinate. He was ordered to bring them to Wujiang County.
If Xu Ming had not accompanied him and introduced him, they would not have believed him.
"Let's ask then?"
Bai Yong said carefully, "Erm, Pei, Lord Pei …"
"Master, Madam, I don't deserve to be called that. Just call me Little Pei or Little Dog.
If the deputy gang leader hears you calling me that, I'm done for. "
When Pei Tugou heard this, he quickly walked towards Bai Yong and Bai Yong and whispered.
"Erm, our Yue 'er has really become the deputy gang leader?"
He Honghua hesitated and asked again.
"That's right. Deputy Gang Leader Bai contributed greatly in the battle with the Nine Seals Sect and was directly promoted by the gang leader to deputy gang leader.
He is second only to one person and above everyone else.
There is absolutely no pretense. "
Little Dog Pei muttered in his heart. This was the tenth time, but he did not dare to delay and quickly explained again.
