Chapter 421 Mountain Gate of Taiyimen
Mo Qian patted Ximen Kankan's shoulder and said, "Kankan, don't mind them. I've seen what you can do. I believe in you."Hearing this from Mo Qian, Ximen Kankan's expression eased slightly, and he went back to studying the map.Xiao Yu and Shen Mihuan didn't understand what was going on, but Mo Qian understood perfectly well. In a fog-shrouded mountain like this, taking a wrong turn here and there without truly getting lost was already remarkable.Xiao Yu and Shen Mihuan believed that all the wrong turns on this trip had been Ximen Kankan's doing. In their eyes, he had pointed the wrong way four times, dragging them back and forth needlessly.But from Mo Qian's perspective, Ximen Kankan had only been wrong four times out of thirteen — an accuracy rate close to eighty percent! In fog this thick, with countless hills all looking alike, there was no reliable way to judge which direction to take. Yet Ximen Kankan could compare the hazy shapes of the mountains against the fine details of t
Chapter 420 Mountain Face
Upon exiting the Court of Judicial Review, Mo Qian immediately retrieved his own formal documentation, proceeding directly toward Shenyun Prefecture's administrative office to exchange for proper sect credentials.Detailed information and portraits for their entire group had already reached Shenyun Prefecture beforehand, with formal sect credentials already prepared in advance. Following verification of their documentation and physical appearance, the administrative office issued proper sect credentials to each of them.However, given Xiangu County's considerable distance, combined with the delays caused by their ambush encounter and subsequent interrogation, the primary group of disciples heading into the mountains had already departed several days earlier.Consequently, Mo Qian's group would need to make their own way toward Changliu Mountain independently.The Changliu Mountains stretched across more than two hundred li, its interior featuring densely clustered peaks and pervasive
Chapter 419 Mountain Gates
Under this flickering light's illumination, he suddenly registered something genuinely familiar about this particular four-walled earthen chamber."This is..."Yang Zhen suddenly recalled—this was the exact same hidden chamber where both Xie Lei and Xu Ruhu had ultimately died.Yang Zhen suddenly called out: "Mo Qian!"Yet only silence answered him, no response coming whatsoever.Carrying his flame, Yang Zhen stepped forward, following the passage toward a particular exit.Standing there, he spotted faint daylight filtering down, emanating from that particular opening above.Shielding his flame carefully, Yang Zhen climbed through the exit.He immediately discovered himself standing at the bottom of a dry well.Sure enough, this represented the very same well leading down toward Xie Lei's hidden chamber.Steadying himself, Yang Zhen pressed both hands against the well's inner walls, climbing steadily upward.Emerging beside the well's opening, Yang Zhen spotted the morning light alrea
Chapter 418 The Awakening in the Dark
The following morning, as dawn broke, three carriages departed slowly through Xiangu County's eastern gate, heading along the official road...Xiao Zongting and Ximen Yong stood beneath the city wall, watching the carriages gradually depart into the distance.Amid the cold morning breeze, their hair tousled by the wind, both men appeared, in that particular moment, noticeably aged beyond their years.The three carriages gradually shrank into distant black specks. Ximen Yong turned toward Xiao Zongting and remarked, "Children and grandchildren must forge their own particular paths. Brother Xiao, forgive my forwardness—might I invite you to share a proper drink together?"Xiao Zongting replied, "I've similarly been hoping to share drinks with you myself, brother—this heaviness has settled within my own chest as well. But please, allow me to hear your invitation first!"Xiao Zongting offered this response with genuine, hearty laughter.Ximen Yong laughed in return. "Brother Xiao, please,
Chapter 417 The New Magistrate
Something shifted in Sun Qian's expression. "Draft a fresh copy of the case documentation, dated six days prior to that actual incident.""This..." Zhu Guibao froze momentarily, genuinely surprised by Sun Qian's particular approach. This particular maneuver would effectively shift responsibility for the case directly back onto Shen Yanliu himself.Sun Qian continued, "Simply follow my instructions precisely. When the formal documentation reaches the provincial administration, ensure it bears the county's official seal along with my own signature. What genuine concern do you have?"Sun Qian's decision to deliberately attribute Xie Daohan's case to Shen Yanliu's tenure carried his own careful, calculated reasoning.Though Shen Yanliu had indeed advanced to his new prefectural position, overseeing criminal justice matters throughout an entire prefecture carried considerable authority.However, since Ruyang Prefecture fell entirely outside his own current jurisdiction, he genuinely wouldn
Chapter 416 Shadow over the County
At minimum, his own spiritual sea of consciousness hadn't registered any genuinely negative sensations, and his soul-based techniques continued functioning entirely normally.However, following this particular observation, Mo Qian found himself considerably more wary regarding this crimson glow going forward.He'd simply failed to properly notice its gradual growth, allowing it to achieve second-tier status unchecked. This crimson presence had already drifted uncomfortably close to the three stars. Should it continue expanding further, wouldn't it eventually resemble a cuckoo occupying a magpie's nest—gradually displacing the three stars toward the sky's distant corners while claiming the central position entirely for itself?Mo Qian genuinely couldn't determine what such an outcome might ultimately signify.Regardless, he understood clearly that this crimson glow absolutely must not be permitted to continue growing further.Fortunately, Mo Qian had only absorbed the Filthy Blood tech
