Chapter 211
Chapter 211
After the incident with Old Huang, Chen Jingan temporarily stopped investigating.
The capital city has deep roots, and he was afraid that he would accidentally bump into the real owner again.
Old Huang is an old man.
If it happened once, it could be explained clearly, but if it happened too many times, even if it was not a ghost, it would become a ghost.
In the Human Prison.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs once again released the killing target, and it was two foundation-building demon cultivators.
This time, Chen Jingan selected a shadow demon cultivator and a blood demon cultivator, both of whom were at the third level of foundation building.
The reason why he did not choose the black demon cultivator was not because he felt sympathy.
But the black demon cultivator at the third level of foundation building had been tossed by him.
Now, the Great Qian Emperor and the Black Demon Cult leader are on good terms, and the Demon Suppression Departments in the southeastern counties have been paralyzed in the matter of arresting demon cultivators, and have chosen to coexist with the Demon Cult.
As one grows and the other shrinks, a large number of demon cultivators gather in the southeast, especially the black demon cultivators.
This is not it——
The black magic cultivators are equivalent to being stamped with the "Black Magic Cultivator Protection Law". The black magic cultivators imprisoned in the prison will not be vomited out, but basically no new black magic cultivators can be caught.
Chen Jing'an can only change his taste.
He is not picky in this regard. Anyway, as long as the magic cultivators can be digested, they are good magic cultivators.
In a few breaths, the two magic cultivators were all transformed into magic bones and magic souls.
Chen Jing'an felt the fullness coming from his body.
The fifth level of foundation building should not be far away.
At that time, relying on the blessing of the "Dragon Transformation" magical power.
As long as the late foundation building does not take action, he will be able to control the situation.
Now that the black magic plague released by Chen Qingyi has begun to show results, the "harmonious" appearance that the various magic sects have finally formed in the southeast has actually been broken because of the collective "weakness" of the black magic cultivators.
Except for Lanling County, which is actually controlled by Xiao Zhenjun.
In other counties, black magic cultivators have long become popular.
Not only the people of the Demon Cult want to stab him, but there are also well-informed masters of the Demon Suppression Division who are sharpening their knives to take advantage of him.
Chen Jing'an is waiting for news from Changping County.
He needs more intelligence and the tokens of the Mu clan members to put together a set of accurate Tianji Guaxiang.
These things will be handed over to the members of the Immortal Clan.
Now they have the business in their hands, and they have money and people.
Chen Jing'an is only responsible for the final word, and the rest of the details can be let go.
...
Lao Chu is not here today, so Chen Jing'an left the talisman that sealed the demon soul in the house for Lao Chu.
According to the surface statement.
This thing needs to be handed over to the Great Qian Emperor by Lao Chu himself.
Chen Jing'an doesn't want to dig deep into the secrets.
For example, who exactly did this demon soul enter.
He and Lao Chu are at peace with each other, and this is the best result.
As for the remaining demon bones, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has a group of weapon refiners who can process them and refine them into various standard magic weapons.
Chen Jing'an took on the task of slaying the demon. In addition to the mana gains that only he knew about, he could also nominally get a considerable reward for his achievements, which was equivalent to hundreds of spirit stones, so it was worth his trip.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs is located in the northeast corner of the palace.
This is not the first time Chen Jing'an has come here. After showing the prison warden's waist badge, the people of the Ministry of Internal Affairs let him go.
This thing needs to be handed over to the chief steward of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
The chief steward of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is named Chu Huaiyuan, a cultivator of the Daqian royal family. When Chen Jing'an made the "Penghou Poison Powder", it was Chu Huaiyuan who agreed to let him enjoy the same private space as Old Chu.
Based on this point, Chen Jing'an still has a good impression of Chu Huaiyuan.
However, today he went to the duty room of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and still did not see Chu Huaiyuan in person.
There was a fluctuation of the formation coming from the palace.
Chen Jing'an instinctively felt that something was wrong, and he remembered the "chaos in the palace" mentioned by Chi Shuang at the beginning. There might be some connection between the two.
He was hesitating whether to leave.
After all, since the royal family had suppressed this matter, it would be better for him not to know about it.
At this moment, someone made a decision for him.
A voice came from the palace.
"Chen Yudian, come and help me."
This was Chu Huaiyuan without a doubt.
With him speaking, Chen Jing'an didn't have to worry about being responsible.
Chen Jing'an temporarily put away the magic bone, stepped on the fiery red escape light, and flew towards the palace wall.
The moment he approached.
Chu Huaiyuan opened the formation.
When he walked inside, Chen Jing'an saw Chu Huaiyuan fighting with several figures.
After he looked carefully, he suddenly felt a familiar feeling.
"Is this a mechanical beast?"
Moreover, it seemed to be a humanoid mechanical beast that he had never seen before. It looked as heavy as a lump of iron, but it moved very fast.
Chu Huaiyuan, who was at the fifth level of foundation building, was entangled by these mechanical beasts.There is no way to escape.
Chen Jingan has mastered the second-level mechanical art.
Although he is not an expert, he knows the weaknesses of mechanical beasts better than Chu Huaiyuan.
Swoosh——
Chen Jingan manipulated the "Melting Fire True Spirit" to transform into a thunderous longbow, aimed the arrow at the mechanical art in front of Chu Huaiyuan, and shot it out.
Although his strength was still reserved, his divine sense's predictive ability was not affected at all.
This arrow accurately hit the mechanical beast's back.
In an instant, the core of the mechanical beast was destroyed, and it really turned into an iron lump.
Chu Huaiyuan didn't have high expectations for Chen Jingan.
He never thought that his move would directly destroy the indestructible mechanical beast.
Chu Huaiyuan was surprised, but now was obviously not the time to find out the truth, and the two exchanged glances.
He was responsible for restraining these mechanical beasts.
Chen Jingan looked for an opportunity to take action.
In just a quarter of an hour, the original eight mechanical beasts were all destroyed.
Chen Jing'an immediately showed an overwhelmed look.
He understood the principle that those who are capable should do more work.
However, if it was a matter of conscription, he would not want to do it again.
Chu Huaiyuan did not force him.
After all, it was a great surprise that Chen Jing'an, who was only at the second level of foundation building, could help him escape danger.
The safety of the palace could not be counted on an outsider.
Chu Huaiyuan took a short breath and then walked forward, looking relieved.
"Chen Yudian helped me today, I will remember this favor."
Chen Jing'an did not refuse. He looked at the mechanical beast on the ground and asked curiously.
"Isn't this mechanical beast a creation of Daliang? Why did it appear in the palace and attack the chief steward?"
Chu Huaiyuan knew from the previous incident that Chen Jing'an had attainments in mechanical arts. At this juncture, he was a suitable talent in Daqian.
Originally, this matter should be kept secret.
But Chu Huaiyuan, as the chief steward of the Internal Affairs Department and a royal monk, has the right to handle special matters.
"It's okay for me to talk to you, but if I need you next time, don't refuse."
Chen Jing'an heard the change in Chu Huaiyuan's tone.
Obviously, after today's incident, his relationship with the chief steward of the Internal Affairs Department has successfully reached a higher level and has more possibilities for expansion.
He just needs to increase his family's weight in the eyes of the royal family to reduce the resistance to liquidating the Mu family, and of course he will not refuse.
Next, Chu Huaiyuan revealed the secrets of the royal family.
"When our Daqian went to war with two countries in the southeast, Daliang in the west had bad intentions. Taking advantage of the emperor's personal expedition to the southeast, he dispatched Suzaku, one of the four sacred mechanical beasts, to destroy the foundation of the royal family."
"But the emperor had a backup plan. He not only killed the Suzaku messenger, but also detained the Suzaku sacred beast."
"That was a genuine third-level mechanical beast."
"See, the people in Daliang are getting angry."
