Chapter 17 Wanwan Went Down the Mountain, and Shi Feixuan Fed the Demon With Her Body!
Ming Dynasty, Hulong Villa
Zhu Wushi silently pondered over the confidential report in his hand.
Soon, he summoned the four top agents of Hulong Villa: Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow.
Heaven Number One: Duan Tianya
Earth Number One: Guihai Yidao
Profound Number One: Shangguan Haitang
Yellow Number One: Cheng Shifei
“Foster father...”
The four entered the main hall, bowed, and greeted Zhu Wushi with utmost respect.
“Take a look at this report and assess its authenticity.”
Zhu Wushi handed the report to Duan Tianya, instructing them to examine it.
Although Hulong Villa had spies in Snow Moon City, they couldn’t access its core secrets. Most of the intelligence they received was common knowledge within the city.
However, the idea of someone breaking through to the peak of the Grandmaster realm at the age of eighteen, while also curing Ye Ruoyi’s congenital heart defect, made Zhu Wushi feel as though reality was defying him.
Could such a prodigy truly exist in this world?
Judging by his talent, it’s not impossible for him to reach the Heavenly Realm before the age of twenty!
A twenty-year-old master of that realm?
Just imagining it sent shivers down Zhu Wushi’s spine.
He had cultivated for most of his life and, relying on the Art of Energy Dissolution, had only barely reached the half-step Heavenly Realm. He hadn’t yet taken that final step.
“Hiss...”
“Eighteen and already at the ninth level of the Grandmaster realm?”
“That can’t be true!”
Cheng Shifei gasped, stunned.
As one of Hulong Villa’s top agents, their abilities were undoubtedly exceptional.
“Master?”
Wanwan paused her cultivation as the door opened, a hint of confusion flickering in her eyes.
Her master had never interrupted her training unless it was something important.
“The Hundred Flowers Gathering in Snow Moon City is approaching. Get close to the Fourth City Lord of Snow Moon City and try to win him over.”
“Your Heavenly Demon Art has reached the seventeenth level. It’s time for you to descend the mountain and gain experience.”
Zhu Yuyan handed the report to Wanwan.
Unlike other factions, Zhu Yuyan had discovered that Jiang Che was from the Song Dynasty and had become a City Lord of Snow Moon City after just one day there.
She suspected there were hidden interests at play, and Jiang Che had likely struck a deal with someone in Snow Moon City.
“Understood...”
Wanwan replied and then curiously examined the report handed to her.
As she read, her pupils involuntarily contracted.
...
Ci Hang Jing Zhai, Emperor’s Peak
Fan Qinghui also sought out the current Saintess of Ci Hang Jing Zhai, Shi Feixuan.
“Master?”
Shi Feixuan was surprised by her master’s sudden visit.
“The world is on the brink of chaos, and the Demon Sect is stirring.”
“A peerless genius has appeared in Snow Moon City, and the Yin Kui Sect has already made a move.”
“Now that your Ci Hang Sword Canon is complete, it’s time for you to descend the mountain and gain experience.”
“Represent Ci Hang Jing Zhai at the Hundred Flowers Gathering in Snow Moon City and attempt to win over Jiang Che.”
“If you can’t recruit him, make sure he doesn’t fall under the Demon Sect’s influence.”
“If necessary, you must sacrifice yourself to save him...”
“Understood...”
Shi Feixuan stared at the report in silence for a long time before finally nodding gently.
