Post-Apocalyptic: Unlimited Resources, Neighbor's Wife and Sister Beg for the Door to Open

Mi Nanfeng informed them that everything had been arranged.

If Lu Zheng succeeds in his plan, his spies planted in the capitals of the three kingdoms will take control of the situation and submit to the Chu Kingdom, thus beginning a top-down reshaping process.

For the scholars below, serving as an official was the same no matter who it was; they had little desire to resist when the imperial family changed.

Unless it's a barbarian invasion.

Mi Nanfeng also made arrangements for defense against the barbarians, and was ready to send troops at any time.

Lu Zheng thought for a moment and told him that if the barbarians launched a large-scale invasion, he should let him know and he would help to resolve the situation.

Killing one person is murder, and killing ten thousand people is still murder.

War inevitably results in death.

Since they were all going to die anyway, Lu Zheng didn't mind helping them solve their problems directly.

This would actually reduce the number of innocent civilians who die.

Of course, this doesn't mean that the soldiers of both countries deserved to die; it simply means that since they chose aggression, they were prepared to die.

Taking advantage of the time he still had today, Lu Zheng decided to first obtain the secret manual from the old emperor of the Three Kingdoms.

Otherwise, if you kill someone, it will be difficult to obtain a complete martial arts manual at the Golden Core level.

He first arrived at the capital of Jin, used his mental perception to locate the old emperor, appeared in front of him instantly, and then used a spatial barrier to seal him in a spatial cage.

Finding himself unable to break free of this invisible cage, Sima Chao, a member of the Jin royal family, immediately spoke up:
"I wonder what brings you here so suddenly, senior. Whatever it may be, I will try my best to accommodate you."

Lu Zheng smiled faintly and said:
"I want all the secret manuals you possess, including those from the Celestial Realm."

As he spoke, he took out a magic pill and handed it to Sima Chao.

"I didn't want to have any conflict with you. I was just afraid that you would be hostile to my sudden visit, so I took action to control you first."

"This is a elixir that can extend one's life by ten days. You give me the secret manual, and I'll give you the elixir. You won't lose out."

"After all, if you give me a copy of the manual, I'll still have some for myself."

“I gave you the elixir, which can truly extend your lifespan.”

Looking at the elixir in his hand, Sima Chao didn't hesitate much and swallowed it directly.

Because if Lu Zheng wanted to kill him, he would be like meat on a chopping board, certain to die.

There's no need to poison him anymore.

Therefore, he chose to believe Lu Zheng's words; at least, there was no need to lie about the elixir.

But when he took the elixir, he was surprised to find that it could actually extend his lifespan.

At this moment, Lu Zheng smiled and waved his hand, and a set of table and chairs appeared in front of him. He sat down in the chair and said:

"The cage has been removed. Come, sit down and let's talk."

Sima Chao immediately stepped forward and found that the cage was indeed gone.

He quickly stepped out of the area he had just been in and sat down at the table.

Lu Zheng's ability to retrieve objects from thin air truly shocked him, prompting him to ask:
"May I ask, sir, where did you come from? How did you acquire such divine abilities?"

Lu Zheng had no intention of hiding his identity.

He said lightly:
"Nature comes from another world."

"Such a thing doesn't exist in this world."

"I come from a world of cultivation, so such methods are naturally only available to cultivators."

"Life-extending elixirs are precious even in the cultivation world, but I am more curious about the martial arts of this world, so I took some out to exchange for secret manuals and treasures."

"I first appeared in the State of Chu, where I completed a transaction with Master Yuanfeng and Mi Jingchuan. The two of them each took out a secret manual and some other items in exchange for elixirs that would grant them decades of lifespan."

Upon hearing this, Sima Chao could no longer remain seated and immediately asked, "Besides the secret manual, what else can I exchange for elixirs with you?"

"Even, exchanging cultivation methods?"

Lu Zheng said calmly:

"There's very little in this world that interests me."

"Besides martial arts manuals, the only other special elixirs left are top-quality beauties."

"If we had to pick another one, it would be population."

Sima Chao subconsciously asked in return:

"population?"

Lu Zheng looked at him and said with a smile:
"Yes, human souls and corpses are basic materials for refining artifacts. Millions or tens of millions of living people can be used to refine a decent magical artifact."

Sima Chao never considered himself a good person.

But after hearing Lu Zheng's words, he still couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.

It seems there is still a huge difference between bad people and ruthless cultivators.

Sima Chao suddenly thought of something and said:

"A stunning beauty, I just caught one here."

Seeing that Lu Zheng remained silent, Sima Chao said with great interest:

"This woman is named Ye Xiyue. She is the leader of the Demonic Sect and a personal disciple of Huangfu Cang, the Blood-Transforming Divine Blade."

"Back then, Huangfu Cang cultivated to the half-step Celestial Realm with his self-created secret technique, Blood Transformation Divine Blade. After I killed him, I never expected that his disciple, Ye Xiyue, would make a comeback recently."

"This demonic sect's secret technique is very special. In just ten years, Ye Xiyue has grown from an unknown person to a half-step Celestial Realm expert."

"If I hadn't sent people to track down the troubles left behind by Huangfu Cang and captured him in advance, it would probably have brought great disaster to the people of Jin."

Lu Zheng asked in surprise:
"Oh? If that's the case, why not just kill them outright and nip it in the bud? Why bring them to the capital instead of capturing them?"

Sima Chao said with a smile:
"Although Huangfu Cang is a member of the Demonic Sect, it cannot be denied that his martial arts skills are no less than mine."

"I think that the Blood Transformation Divine Blade is very likely a secret manual that can be cultivated to the Celestial Realm, and it has the effect of quick success, so I want to interrogate it to find out the contents of the manual."

"But this woman was really stubborn. We interrogated her for seven days. At first, we used some methods to torture her, but later she actually tried to kill herself."

"In order to keep her from dying for the time being, I have to knock her unconscious every day, and now I am at a loss."

"However, now that we have met the Immortal Master, this woman is no longer important. She can be given to the Immortal Master as a gift."

"If the immortal master has the means to obtain what's in her mind, it would be an extra gift."

Lu Zheng showed a satisfied expression upon hearing this.

He then unleashed his spiritual power to search the capital, quickly pinpointing Ye Xiyue's location. A shadow clone appeared, disappeared, and reappeared, holding a woman covered in blood and unconscious beside it.

Sima Chao looked at Ye Xiyue, who had appeared before him, and exclaimed in amazement:

"Telekinesis, truly a divine skill!"

"Immortal Master, what do I need to do to become your disciple and learn these immortal arts?"

Lu Zheng shook his head and said:
"You are too old and lack spiritual roots, so you cannot embark on the path to immortality."

"It would be better to continue studying martial arts. As long as you can help me get what I want, I can keep giving you elixirs so that you can achieve immortality."

"You should know that even among cultivators, very few can have an infinite lifespan."

"Do your job well. I'm taking the person with me. I'll come back to collect the manual first thing tomorrow morning."

Before he could finish speaking, Lu Zheng vanished. (End of Chapter)
