Chapter 1146

By the time they left Rejuvenation Valley, night had already fallen and the lights in Mochou City were gradually becoming brighter.

Zhang Xiaohua stood in mid-air with her hands behind her back. She did not release her divine sense and only used her naked eyes to look down.

She saw that in Mochou City, every household was lit up with lights. The surface of Mochou Lake reflected the surrounding lights and the night sky that had yet to be revealed. It was even more … starry than the real night sky.

"Eh?

This place … why is it so deserted?

Could it be that something is wrong? "

Zhang Xiaohua was admiring the view when she suddenly noticed that on the west side of Mochou Lake, there was a large area. It was completely dark and there were no lights. It was completely different from the surrounding lights.

If it was a normal day, Zhang Xiaohua might not have noticed it. However … at Between the Clouds and the Water, Bai Yanqiu's palace was dark at night. Zhang Xiaohua was able to recognize it easily and gain a lot of benefits from it!

How could he not remember?

Thinking about it, Zhang Xiaohua released her divine sense and scanned the area.

Then, he frowned. This area was a huge manor. It was close to the Sorrowless Lake. Although most of the area was dark and there were no traces of people, there were still many people living around the manor. Moreover, there were many men in martial attire around the manor. They held lanterns in their hands and were constantly on duty.

"I'm afraid this is the manor of an official …" Zhang Xiaohua had just thought of this when another thought popped up. "Aiyo, that day when I came to Mochou City with my dream, it seems that … the dream appeared near this manor. This … could it be the Incense Cult in Mochou City …"

At this moment, a black shadow escaped from the manor in a panic from the southern side of the manor. Not far behind him were two men in martial arts attire. One of them held a torch, while the other held a steel saber. They were hot on his heels!

"Haha ~" Zhang Xiaohua saw the black shadow in front of her and couldn't help but laugh. "People often wear out iron shoes but still can't find you. I cast a wide net in Mochou City but still couldn't find you. I actually met you here today!"

Wasn't the black shadow in front the worker of the Storm Carriage Company?

Judging from the way he fled, he seemed to be quite familiar with the surrounding terrain.

However, the two people who were chasing after him were obviously much more skilled than the shop assistant. After they left the manor, they threw away their torches and focused on chasing after him. By the time Zhang Xiaohua had flown behind them, the shop assistant had already been sandwiched between the two of them!

"You little thief, why aren't you surrendering?" A Chinese character shouted with a sinister smile.

"Heroes, please spare my life. I was just short of some money and wanted to steal some things from your residence. But … I didn't get anything. Please spare me!" The shop assistant was still arguing, but his eyes were looking around and his feet didn't stop.

"Hehe, with such Qing Gong, how could you be an ordinary thief?

Don't bully me because I can't see! "A man said angrily.

The other man continued, "Yi Xiang Manor is famous in Mo Chou City, there isn't a single ruffian in the vicinity, who would believe your words?"

Seeing that the shop assistant was getting closer, one of the men raised his steel knife and laughed sinisterly, "Since brother isn't willing to stop, then … I'll let you bleed first!"

However, just as the steel knife was about to fall, a black shadow descended from the sky and grabbed the shop assistant's neck. With a light lift, the man's steel knife fell into the air. The black shadow didn't stop and hovered about ten feet above the ground. With the shop assistant's body in his hand, he flew far away in the blink of an eye like a nighthawk!

"This …" When the two men saw this, they couldn't help but be stunned. They stopped in their tracks and looked at each other, their eyes filled with horror!

"Big brother … I … I didn't see wrongly right? Is that … someone from the Immortal Dao?"

"Brother … no … you didn't see wrongly, that's right."

The other stuttered and shrunk his neck, "Brother, let's hurry back and report this matter to the steward. This thief is not from anywhere. Not only did he sneak into our Yi Xiang Manor at night, he even had an expert from the Immortal Dao to receive him … this matter … is serious!"

The two men turned around and left even faster than when they were chasing after the shop assistant …

As for the shop assistant, he had escaped from death and was overjoyed. His body was in mid-air and the night wind blew gently. He almost suspected that he was in a dream.

That shop assistant was also clever and knew that it was not the right time to speak. He waited for the expert from the Immortal Dao to descend from the sky and stop at a secluded place before turning around. Without looking carefully, he bowed and said, "Immortal elder … thank you for saving my life."

After a few kowtows, he offered his gratitude.

"Hehe ~" That person laughed coldly and didn't reply.

When the shop assistant heard this, he unconsciously raised his head and probed, "This disciple is … a subordinate disciple of Qing Yan Ling Mo Chou City. I don't know which elder of the Immortal Dao is?

Ah??? "

This last surprised "ah" was when he saw the face of the person who came. He couldn't help but cry out in surprise.

He saw that the face was very young, only about sixteen years old. However, the figure was thin and tall, taller than the shop assistant by a head. Wasn't that … the person he had seen before at the Storm Carriage Company …

In an instant, the shop assistant's back was covered in sweat.

"What, you recognized I?" The person who came was indeed Zhang Xiaohua. Her eyes were full of sarcasm as she said coldly.

"Immortal elder … I … I have eyes but failed to see … I don't know …" The shop assistant was incoherent and didn't know what to say. Was there a need to say this?

He had reported the situation of this immortal elder's family having excess wealth and he himself knew the methods of the Qing Yan Ling Mo. Was there a need to ask the reason why this immortal elder came to find him now?

"Immortal elder, please spare my life, please spare my life … These are the orders of the owner … I am only following orders …" The shop assistant fell to the ground and begged.

"Your so-called owner has already died in I's hands. You don't have to accuse me … You have to know the consequences of what you have done!" Zhang Xiaohua didn't waste time with him. She pointed her finger and used Bewitching Finger to hit the acupoint at the back of the shop assistant's head!

After a while, Zhang Xiaohua's face was filled with anger. She thought to herself, This Qing Yan Ling Mo … is really despicable. Who knows how many innocent lives it has taken!

It's a pity that I don't have the means to get rid of it one by one!

"Oh, right, the place you went to just now … is it the manor of the Fragrant Cult?" Zhang Xiaohua suddenly thought.

"Yes, this Yi Xiang Mountain Manor is the manor of the famous martial arts family, the Ge family. Secretly, it is the base of the Fragrant Cult in Mo Chou City. It has been many years. This is what I know from the Banner Lord!"

"Why did you go to the Yi Xiang Mountain Manor?"

"The Banner Lord seems to be doing something to the Yi Xiang Mountain Manor. I was just a scout to find out the actual situation!"

"Alright, tell me the location of your Banner Lord!"

…

The shop assistant told Zhang Xiaohua what she wanted to know very clearly. After he finished, Zhang Xiaohua said, "Although you didn't personally kill anyone, according to your information, who knows how many innocent people have died in the hands of others. You can be considered to have deserved more than death.

Letting you leave unknowingly is also a reward for your cooperation just now! "

As she said this, she looked at the shop assistant's blank expression. Zhang Xiaohua sighed slightly in her heart. She stretched out her hand and grabbed the shop assistant's neck. With a slight force, a "kacha" sound was heard. A stream of blood flowed out from the corner of the shop assistant's mouth. His body went limp and fell to the ground, dead.

"It's not that there won't be retribution, it's just that the time hasn't come. Once the time is up, retribution will come knocking!"

Zhang Xiaohua said in a low voice. She soared up again. Tonight, a secret branch of the Righteous Dao Alliance in Mo Chou City was unlucky. Before the shop assistant could reply, the God of Pestilence came knocking on their door. A group of evil men whose hands were secretly stained with blood didn't even get to see the other party's face before their lives were reaped by a swift and fierce sword light!

In just the time it took to eat a meal, Zhang Xiaohua soared up from a small courtyard and was about to fly out of Mo Chou City. But just as she was about to leave the city, she changed her mind and her body flew diagonally towards Lingering Fragrance Manor!

Lingering Fragrance Manor was the same as before. Most of the place was pitch black but there were more disciples patrolling around the manor. It was as if they were guarding against the Righteous Dao Alliance.

Zhang Xiaohua concealed her body and landed in a pavilion. Beside the pavilion was a small pond. The lotus flowers in the pond had already withered and the lotus leaves were also somewhat withered. Looking at the water in the pond, it was flowing slightly. It was actually connected to the water of Mo Chou Lake.

"This … Is there anything strange about this place?

When Peacock came to Mo Chou City, she had to make a trip here. When Meng came to Mo Chou City, she also had to make a trip here. Whatever they do, they can't talk about it outside!

Today … I want to see if there's anything strange about this place! "

However, with Zhang Xiaohua's divine sense, the entire manor was very normal. It was no different from an ordinary manor. For a moment, there was no way for her to investigate.

"Hehe, I forgot!" Zhang Xiaohua slapped her forehead and scolded herself. "Didn't I just use the Bewitching Finger?

Won't I know if I ask someone? "

Sure enough, in a moment, Zhang Xiaohua's body appeared in a garden.

Looking at the embroidered building in Xiaohua's garden, Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help but smile bitterly. "So this ordinary embroidered building is the place where the inner disciples of Chanting Fragrance Cult have to pay their respects after arriving at Mo Chou City?"

"Moreover … Other than the inner disciples, all the disciples of Chanting Fragrance Cult are not allowed to come close to this garden. Even the old consecrator of Chanting Fragrance Cult … can't come close!"

"Hehe, isn't it just … a portrait?" Zhang Xiaohua's divine sense swept over and understood.

Then, she walked slowly to the front of the embroidered building. Strangely, there was no fluctuation of Primordial Qi from inside to outside. It was very inconsistent with the status of Chanting Fragrance Cult as a big immortal sect!

"Something is strange, something is strange!" Zhang Xiaohua, who was used to dealing with all kinds of restrictions of Chanting Fragrance Cult, suspected that there was something strange about this embroidered building that she didn't know about. However, when she activated the Crimson Spirit Protection and walked safely into the first floor of the embroidered building without triggering any restrictions, she couldn't help but feel extremely strange!

Taking out a Luminous Pearl from her arms, Zhang Xiaohua observed the first floor of the embroidered building again with the help of the Luminous Pearl's brilliance.

The first floor of the embroidered building was similar to the first floor of the Misty School's Inheritance Pavilion. It was very clean and tidy. There was only a portrait hanging on the south wall. Under the portrait, there was a quaint table. On the table, there were three different styles of incense burners, each with several incense sticks …
