Chapter 357 The Secret of the True Body
On the second day, several Titled Douluo as well as Huo Yuhao, Tang Wutong and others went to stroll around the city after hiding. However, Mu Ran did not go out. He was waiting for someone to come.

The flowers in the small garden in the yard were in full bloom. Mu Ran brushed across a red flower with his fingertips. The flower was so bright red that it looked as if it were soaked in blood.

There were footsteps behind him, "Master Mu."

"Master Hongchen, long time no see." Mu Ran turned around and was a little surprised to see Jing Hongchen's appearance.

Jing Hongchen had aged a lot, and his white hair could be clearly seen. His face was tired, and his body, which had always been fat, had become much thinner. How could a Titled Douluo not even be able to maintain his youth?

Jing Hongchen didn't avoid Mu Ran's gaze and sighed softly: "Although I have lived in fear for the past two years, I am satisfied knowing that the children are doing well."

"Xu Tianran suspected you?"

"That's not the case. It's just that I can't leave Mingdu. The Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony is coming, and there's a lot to do." Jing Hongchen looked at Mu Ran and said bluntly, "I don't care what you are going to do this time, just take my family members out."

Mu Ran opened his eyes slightly: "What about you?"

"You don't need to worry about me." Jing Hongchen waved his hand, "I will stay whether I live or die."

There was a touch of respect in Mu Ran's eyes. In fact, Jing Hongchen had betrayed the Sun and Moon Empire long ago, but for the sake of his family, he finally chose to stay in the empire. Such a choice meant that he had to bear Xu Tianran's anger, and it meant that he would definitely die!

Persuasion was useless, so Mu Ran had to talk to him about defense.

Jing Hongchen came and left quickly, and left through the secret passage before the others came back.

At noon, everyone else came back and the yard became lively. Huo Yuhao came to Mu Ran.

Seeing Huo Yuhao coming, Mu Ran raised his hand, and the whole room was suddenly filled with a layer of faint blue light, blocking all means of detection.

"How was it? Did you find anything after going out for a walk?" Mu Ran asked.

Huo Yuhao shook his head and said, “The situation in Mingdu is relatively normal. Although the various detection soul guides in the city also cover almost the entire city, their number and strength are much smaller than those of the external detection soul guides. The Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony is indeed being prepared. Everything is consistent with our sources of information.”

"In addition, we also encountered the Royal Guards, who were busy preparing for the Heavenly Sacrifice Ceremony. The people were dissatisfied with them but did not dare to say anything."

Mu Ran nodded. If the people really dared to say anything, given Xu Tianran's cruelty, not only would they not live to see tomorrow's sunrise, they might even be executed on the spot.

"Any other tidbits?"

“Uh——” Huo Yuhao touched his head, a trace of embarrassment appearing on his face.

"Say it quickly!"

"Boss, I heard people talking about this in the tavern. I don't know if it's true or not. They said Xu Tianran and Ju Zi have been married for a long time, but Ju Zi hasn't had any baby. They guess she can't have children, and there's no one to carry on the royal family. One of them even said he has a relative working in the royal family, and anyone who talks about Ju Zi's health problems will be executed by Xu Tianran. He protects Ju Zi very much. After hearing these words, Wu Tong was so angry that she wanted to teach those people a lesson, but I stopped her."

Huo Yuhao's face turned red after saying this. After all, it was not good to talk about someone behind his back like this.

Huo Yuhao didn’t quite understand, but Mu Ran understood after thinking for a moment.

It's not Ju Zi who is not good, it's Xu Tianran who is not good! However, such a private matter cannot be spread out. For Xu Tianran, this may be a lifelong pain!

After chatting with Mu Ran, Huo Yuhao was in a hurry to go back. Tang Wutong was a little angry because of being stopped, so Huo Yuhao had to go back and calm him down.

As a result, he was stopped by Du BuShai on the way, and Huo Yuhao was taken back to Du BuSai's room.

"Senior, do you have anything to ask me?"

Du Bu Si looked Huo Yuhao up and down with sharp eyes, and then took out a booklet from his arms.

"It's a pity that it was Moon who met you instead of me. I give you this booklet. It can be regarded as a gift from the senior to the junior."

This was clearly a palm-sized booklet, but when Huo Yuhao took it in his hand, he was surprised to find that the booklet was incredibly heavy, at least several dozen kilograms.

The whole booklet is presented in pale gold, with four beautiful small characters on the surface, "The Secret of the Essence."

Seeing these four words, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but be shocked, and looked up at Du Bu Si in shock. He saw a gentle look in Du Bu Si's eyes.

“Senior, I can’t accept this. It’s really…” Huo Yuhao almost subconsciously returned the booklet in his hand.

Du Bu Si did not take it back. "This book of the secret of the body contains many mysteries about the body spirit. It is also the most core book of our body sect. Only the generations of body Douluo can inherit it. I will lend it to you temporarily. If I can successfully survive this mission, then you can return it to me. If I die, then please send it to your Shrek Academy, and let Shrek Academy return it to our body sect. During this process, I allow you to refer to the contents at will."

"You don't need to thank me. I do this not only to help you, but more importantly, I hope to carry forward the lineage of the body spirit. Although you are Moon's disciple, you cannot deny the fact that you have a body spirit. When your body spirit becomes stronger, you will be a body Douluo. Whether you like it or not, this is the fact. If our body sect perishes in the future war, then, when you meet a soul master with a body spirit in the future, please help me pass on our body sect lineage. This is the reward for letting you read the secret of the body, what do you think?"

Huo Yuhao agreed. He really didn’t expect that Du Bushi was determined to die in this mission.

"Go back quickly, your teacher is still waiting at the door to discuss things with me!"

Five days later.

Today's Mingdu is obviously a bit more solemn and solemn. Early in the morning, the originally bustling city became very quiet. Except for some daily necessities, almost most shops choose to close on this day.

Because today is the day of the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony.

His Majesty Xu Tianran, the Emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire, will hold a ceremony to worship the sky on the outskirts of Mingdu. Pay homage to heaven and earth, and also pay homage to the ancestors of the Sun and Moon Empire. In this sacrifice to heaven, Xu Tianran not only wanted to clarify his status, but also prayed to his ancestors to bless him to successfully complete the great cause of unification.

The preparations for this heaven-sacrifice ceremony began several months ago, and a lot of manpower, financial and material resources were spent.

Early this morning, a large number of people have poured out of Mingdu and come to the suburbs, ready to welcome the arrival of this national ceremony.
