Inside the villa, Zhang Wentao laid on the ground for the better part of an hour. After he confirmed that the youth whose name he did not even know had truly left, he crawled up from the ground with a struggle and dialed the mobile numbers of his other two bodyguards.

Just as he finished the call, the zhenqi that was left in Lin Jin's Hundred Meetings Acupoint finally took action. Zhang Wentao felt his head go numb, and a tremor passed down from his head, followed by his entire body involuntarily trembling.

When the two bodyguards arrived and saw that Zhang Wentao was drenched and trembling, they were stunned. They rushed forward to help him up and asked anxiously: "Secretary Zhang, what's wrong?"

Zhang Wentao was helped to his feet but he did not say anything. He did not care about the woman who was unconscious on the ground, as he trembled and ordered them: "Do not say too much, quickly, send me to Daoist Priest Liu's residence in the Snow Peak Mountain. Quickly, with the fastest speed possible!"

Seeing him like that, the two bodyguards didn't dare to ask anymore questions. Carrying Zhang Wentao on their backs, they walked outside, and once they got on the car, they quickly started up the car.

Snowy Peak Mountain was the most famous and tallest mountain in all of Anling County, it was a watershed between the east and the west of Huashan Province. The mountain was extremely steep, with many streams flowing around it.

Ten-odd years ago, when his master was in closed-door training, Liu Heijiu stole his spirit pellet, hoping to refine a pot of the weaker spirit pellet for to use.

As he passed by, he was attracted by the abundant spirit energy and the strong grievances of the prison more than five kilometers away, thus he decided to stay in seclusion. In the end, he accidentally made an opportunity to get to know Zhang Wentao, and made his pill refining career more convenient.

With the full speed of the bodyguard, the distance of ten li was covered in ten minutes. The two bodyguards did not stay any longer, as they carried Zhang Wentao and ran up the mountain.

Liu Heijiu's residence was located in a secret location halfway up the Snow Peak Mountain. It was a small Taoist temple that was left behind by the dynasty.

When he first arrived here, the small Taoist temple only saved the broken walls on the four sides. However, after knowing Zhang Wentao, it was renovated by him, causing it to immediately shine again.

changed the name of the place to "Solitary Heaven Residence", which became the place for him to cultivate his Qi. However, because this place was remote, other than a few locals, only a few people knew that this place was inhabited.

They took turns carrying him up the mountain. Both of the bodyguards were exhausted, but their bodies were specially trained so they could rest for a bit. He then recovered his strength and sprinted again while carrying Zhang Wentao on his back.

Before the sky completely darkened, they finally arrived at Liu Heijiu's residence. After going through a bumpy journey, Zhang Wentao's face had turned even paler.

Seeing the tightly shut red-painted wooden door, one of the bodyguards knocked on the wooden door. A short while later. A light footstep could be heard, followed by a creaking sound as the wooden door slowly opened in the night.

What appeared before them was the face of an eleven-year-old child.

This child was originally a baby that Liu Heijiu picked up more than ten years ago at the foot of the mountain. Later on, he raised her up and used her to guard the sect gate. She also learned some Tao techniques from him and could barely be considered his successor.

He took a look at the three people outside and realised that the one who was being carried was the secretary of the county council and his two bodyguards, but he was not surprised. He said to Zhang Wentao: "Uncle Zhang, you're here!"

Zhang Wentao ordered the bodyguard carrying him to put it down. Resisting the pain with great difficulty, he said to him in a soft voice, "Yes, little master. Is Taoist Liu at home?"

"Here!" The boy who was called 'Teacher' could tell that they had something important to attend to, so he nodded and pretended to be a little adult as he said, "Master just came back from gathering gas. He is currently doing evening lessons in his room! "You guys can go in first."

"Oh!" "Alright then!" Arriving here, although Zhang Wentao still felt waves of strange pain on his body. However, it was much better than the hellish pain he felt when he was hit by Lin Jin earlier. It wasn't that he couldn't resist.

Furthermore, Zhang Wentao had always been extremely respectful towards Hei Jiu, so he did not dare to disturb him from the evening class. He had to endure the pain and follow the child into the house.

As soon as they entered the room, the child took out a teapot and made them each a cup of tea.

After taking a light sip, Zhang Wentao felt a tranquil and peaceful Qi revolving around his body, lessening the pain on his body. He couldn't help but ask, "Little Shi, what kind of tea is this? Why does it seem to have a strange effect?"

"Oh!" The little teacher smiled and said, "This is a new type of cloudy tea that my master picked in the mountains this morning. He specially asked me to make it for you as soon as you came up the mountain."

"Hiss …" Zhang Wentao felt a warm sensation on his body as the tea scalded him up and down, making him feel relaxed and comfortable. Letting out a long sigh, he could not help but sigh: "Looks like Daoist Master Liu had already anticipated this! "Is that so?"

The child called Little Shi just smiled without saying a word. However, his silence caused Zhang Wentao's confidence to soar, and he became less worried about Lin Zhenbang.

After sitting in the room for a while, they saw a sound of movement from a closed door, and a middle-aged Daoist in a black Taoist robe appeared in their line of sight.

Zhang Wentao and his two bodyguards immediately stood up, and bowed to him: "Greetings!"

Liu Heijiu looked at him and laughed: "Brother Zhang does not need to be so courteous, little master, go to your room and do the homework again tonight, I have something to say to your Uncle Zhang." As he said that, he gave Zhang Wentao a look.

Seeing that, Zhang Wentao knew that there were some things that were inconvenient for others to hear, so he turned to his two bodyguards and said: You two wait outside the door too, I have something to discuss with Sect Leader Liu!

The two bodyguards didn't dare to disobey his orders, so they followed him out of the room.

Seeing them walk out of the house, Liu Heijiu's face immediately became gloomy. Both of his hands made a gesture in front of his chest, and a pitch black ripple instantly flowed out from his palms, enveloping the entire room, and gradually disappeared.

"I've already logged off the Inhibition, so I can't hear or see anything from the outside. If there's anything you want to say, just say it!"

Hearing him say that, Zhang Wentao's eyes immediately became red, and she fell to the ground and kneeled down, "Dao leader Liu, you must save me!"

Seeing him like that, Liu Heijiu was not surprised at all. He brushed past him and sent out a burst of true energy to help him up, and said to him: "You don't have to be like this, although I calculated that you would be in trouble in the next two days, but I am still a little blurry.

"This can be considered as fate for us to meet each other. Perhaps, I will leave in two days!"
