Chapter 818: Chapter 275: Touching the Secret Again_2
They could be said to be leading figures.
Wen Ruanyu had worked hard the entire day, trying to stabilize people's hearts, but these rumors completely undermined his efforts.
He was secretly furious and immediately started investigating.
The result of the investigation left him both amused and exasperated: these rumors were actually spread by Sun Tiesheng.
Wen Ruanyu immediately went to confront him.
Sun Tiesheng knelt on the ground, weeping bitterly before Wen Ruanyu, expressing extreme worry and fear. It wasn't that he feared being assassinated, but he worried that if he died, who would help the City Lord refine Yin Qi. If the lack of this contribution led to the fall of White Paper Immortal City, then the Sun Family would be destroyed. In that case, Sun Tiesheng would be the enemy who ruined his own family!
Wen Ruanyu snorted coldly, “You are overestimating yourself.”
“Get up, I won't hold you accountable for now. But later, you, and your Sun Family, will answer for this!”
Wen Ruanyu flung his sleeves and left, but not before assigning more subordinates to heavily protect Sun Tiesheng.
Sun Tiesheng saw the increased cultivators and secretly rejoiced.
His scheme succeeded, forcing Wen Ruanyu to pay more attention and add more personnel for security.
Although Wen Ruanyu held the Golden Core, he understood Sun Tiesheng's strategy and had no choice but to fall for it.
Because what angered him more was the traitor hiding in the shadows.
“This time, I've arranged three times the personnel to guard Sun Tiesheng. I don't believe you can assassinate him now!” Wen Ruanyu ground his teeth inwardly.
That night.
Outside White Paper City.
Suddenly, a group of Ghost Clan cultivators emerged from underground, surrounding a scout unit of Yin Soldiers.
“Die!” a ghostly girl named Qing Chi shouted, charging ahead, smashing into a Corpse Bone Horse with her small body, knocking down the elite Ghost Soldier leading them, and fiercely beating him.
Bang! Bang! Bang…
Her fists flew, flattening the Ghost Soldier's bronze helmet and then exploding his head.
Many Ghost Soldiers saw their leader was in trouble and rushed towards Qing Chi, only to be intercepted halfway by Qing Yan and his men.
Having killed the Ghost Soldier leader, Qing Chi stood up, her eyes shining fiercely with a battle intent as fierce as fire, ready to continue fighting.
But then she saw her father leading other Ghost Clan cultivators, having just finished their battle.
They had eliminated this scout unit of Yin Soldiers.
Qing Chi felt a bit awkward and helplessly called out, “Hey, leave some for me!”
The Ghost Clan cultivators teased her, “Miss, if you want credit, go see your sweetheart. We also want to establish some achievements. These credits can't be easily given away.”
Qing Chi snorted coldly, “Fine, until we encounter a strong enemy, let's see who can compete with me!”
The second night.
Qing Yan and his people successfully ambushed another scout team of Yin Soldiers.
However, just shortly after the fight began, more than a dozen heavily armored Yin Soldiers suddenly appeared from the other side of the battlefield, launching a charge.
Qing Chi was attracted, not frightened but delighted, shouting, “Good timing!”
She didn't dodge, instead charging towards them, her whole body igniting with blue flames as she rose to meet them.
At the moment of impact, she leaped, lightly touching the tip of a rider's long spear, and soared into the air again.
Blue flames exploded among the heavily armored riders, quickly spreading, consuming the bronze armor and tall skeletal horses.
After just a few breaths, this cavalry unit was engulfed in the blue fire.
Qing Chi parted the waves of flame, joyfully and jubilantly, “This time you can't steal the credit, right?”
But Qing Yan's face turned grim as he scolded, “Qing Chi! Are you seeking death? Who allowed you to take such risks?!”
The third night.
Qing Yan and his team did not leave the city.
The Ghost Tide attacked White Paper Immortal City once again.
As part of the reinforcements, they stood on the city wall defending.
A group of ghostly creatures seemed about to climb onto the wall when Qing Chi stood forward.
She extended her palms, pressing them firmly against the bricks of the White Paper City wall.
In the next moment, her blue, scorching flames spread like vines, covering the entire section of the wall, incinerating the ghosts completely.
In the sea of flames, large clusters of fiery crabapple flowers bloomed.
“Burn you, burn you!” Qing Chi's eyes also flashed with blue light, murmuring as the flames in her hands grew stronger.
Thus, a continuous sweep of blue flames covered a section of the city wall, and spread downward, engulfing a large number of ghosts below the wall, instantly clearing a small part of the battlefield.
Such power drew the attention of both allies and enemies.
The blue flames suddenly disappeared, and Qing Chi, panting, fell into a state of extreme exhaustion.
Qing Yan immediately rushed to her side, picking up his daughter and retreating to the rear, “How many times have I told you not to be so reckless!”
Qing Chi giggled, “Dad, is my merit enough now?”
Qing Yan snorted coldly, “It's probably about enough, we'll count carefully after the battle.”
Qing Chi pouted, dissatisfied, “Fine, count carefully then!”
As the father and daughter walked, they attracted many gazes.
“Is she Qing Chi?”
“The recently very active Ghost Clan cultivator, though she's only at the Foundation Establishment, she has the combat power of a Golden Core!”
“Her flames are full of vitality, but they're lethal to ghosts.”
The young girl exerted herself fully, eager to see her beloved, standing out brightly during this stage of city defense.
Yang Enhancement Institute was heavily guarded.
It had been two days since Chen Sui was assassinated.
Perhaps Wen Ruanyu had mobilized enough people, closely monitoring, or maybe the traitor held back, but no one else had been assassinated these days.
Therefore, the hearts of those in the Yang Enhancement Institute gradually became stable.
Ning Zhuo's days were quite calm and busy.
The other male concubines were fully participating in the Treasure Refining Array, providing their Yang Energy, continuously consuming large amounts of aphrodisiac potions, engaging in fierce competition. However, Ning Zhuo indulged in the cultivation of his soul.
Although he did not primarily practice that cultivation technique, he had four treasures of Nascent Soul Level.
Ning Zhuo slowly opened his eyes, which were deep and black, emitting threads of dark light.
“I've broken through.”
“Now I am a soul of a million!”
Ning Zhuo's heart leapt with joy, looking down at his arm.
His arm was a shade of blue-gray, Yin Qi was seeping out.
Ning Zhuo knew well, this condition was not just limited to his arm but his entire body!
“My soul foundation is too strong, almost exceeding the bearing limit of my flesh.”
“I need to take it slower and spend more effort on the Fetal Breathing Spirit Boat.”
“I must spend more effort on it because that is the foundation for my advancement.”
“After all, the four Nascent Soul Level treasures are over halfway used.”
“Boss, are you not considering being a Soul Cultivator?”
Ning Zhuo couldn't help but ask, “Don't you want to consider Soul Cultivation?”
While practicing, Ning Zhuo refrained from checking on Sun Lingtong's situation. But as Sun Lingtong participated in the Yin Soldier Army, he witnessed the attention Qing Chi attracted. If she grew, her blue flames would surely be a nemesis to the ghosts. Qing Chi seemed to be daring her father, fighting with all her might to earn enough merits to meet Ning Zhuo!
But Ning Zhuo couldn't help himself and worried about her progress, adding fuel to the fire: “Don't worry, it's reported that Qing Chi is close to gaining enough achievements.”
Ning Zhuo furrowed his brow: “I better head out and hide somewhere first.”
He had been planning to leave for some time.
His first stop was the City Lord's Mansion.
There, even though the Paperman Giant Statue was undergoing intensive repairs and had mostly restored its former appearance.
Ning Zhuo reached the inside of the Paperman Giant Statue without any hindrance.
He channeled his energy into the Paperman Giant Statue, and suddenly triggered a layer of hidden prohibition.
In the next moment, his mother's voice came from the lamp.
