Starting as a cowherd, he sought a way to cultivate immortality.
Chapter 76 Reunion with Zhao Xia
Chen Chi's words and actions in the Sutra Repository led Li Jing to suspect that Chen Chi had a past conflict with the Sutra Repository's guards.
On his way back to the Hall of Law Enforcement, he couldn't help but ask:
"Does the commander dislike the guard of the library?"
Chen Chi, feeling refreshed, laughed and said:
"You guessed right, I just didn't like him, so I deliberately humiliated him."
"I'm afraid he'll hold a grudge against the commander." A worried look appeared on Li Jing's face.
"No need to worry, he's only at the fifth level of Qi Refining, he's no match for me."
Upon hearing this, Li Jing nodded.
Since Uncle Chen was confident in dealing with the guards of the Sutra Pavilion, he naturally had nothing to worry about.
As soon as the two arrived at the gate of the Hall of Law Enforcement, a woman in a green robe with a cold expression walked towards them and was about to step into the hall.
Chen Chi looked at Zhao Xia's familiar face, a flash of murderous intent crossing his eyes.
"Stop right there," Chen Chi said coldly.
Zhao Xia paused, then turned to look at Chen Chi and Li Jing.
"Are you from the Enforcement Hall? I've never seen you before," Chen Chi asked knowingly.
Zhao Xia paused for a moment, her eyebrows furrowing slightly as she said:
"I've come to see Commander Wu."
"Wu Changkong?" Chen Chi walked up the steps in front of the Enforcement Hall and shook his head slightly.
"The Enforcement Hall has strict discipline; we don't expect you to get in so easily just because you mentioned Wu Changkong's name."
Having said that, he looked at the guard at the gate and asked quietly:
"Is this how you guard the gates of the Enforcement Hall?"
The guard, a mere second-level Qi Refining cultivator, was terrified by Chen Chi's words and broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly replied:
"Commander Qi, I was wrong."
Chen Chi glanced at Zhao Xia, whose face was as cold as ice:
"This matter is not solely your fault. Someone has taken advantage of Wu Changkong's tyranny to break the rules of my Enforcement Hall. Their intentions are despicable."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Xia trembled slightly, her eyes blazing with anger.
Seeing Zhao Xia so angry with him, Chen Chi instructed the guard on duty:
"Go tell Wu Changkong that someone is looking for him outside the Enforcement Hall, and tell him to come out and meet them in person."
The guard looked troubled, but under Chen Chi's piercing gaze, he had no choice but to obey and leave.
Chen Chi turned his gaze to Zhao Xia and said calmly:
Please wait a moment at the door.
After saying this, he led the dumbfounded Li Jing into the Hall of Law Enforcement.
Before long, Wu Changkong appeared in front of the Enforcement Hall in a great hurry.
Seeing Zhao Xia's unpleasant expression, a murderous intent surged in Wu Changkong's eyes.
"I'm going to settle accounts with Qi Sheng!"
"Never mind," Zhao Xia said, pulling Wu Changkong back. "The important matter is more important."
Upon hearing this, Wu Changkong immediately regained his composure and took Zhao Xia back to his room.
He spread his divine sense to make sure no one around could hear his conversation with Zhao Xia.
Wu Changkong took out a jade tube and handed it to Zhao Xia.
"This is a map of the Zhao family within Cloud Mist Valley. You must deliver it to the Zhou family."
Wu Changkong paused for a moment, then spoke up to remind him:
"Be careful, don't let that bitch Zhao Lanxin find out."
Zhao Xia nodded, her tone cool and aloof:
"Don't worry, the day when the Zhou family attacks the Zhao family is not far off."
Wu Changkong's expression shifted:
"Any new information from the Zhou family?"
Zhao Xia smiled slightly:
"Zhou Qiudao has successfully established his foundation and is now in seclusion to solidify it."
The day he emerges from seclusion will be the day the Zhou family attacks.
"good!"
Upon hearing this, Wu Changkong pulled Zhao Xia into his arms and laughed:
"After we help the Zhou family destroy the Zhao family, we'll receive Foundation Establishment Pills as a reward from the Zhou family, and Foundation Establishment will be just around the corner!"
Zhao Xia's eyes sparkled as she nestled against Wu Changkong's chest and whispered:
"Don't abandon me after you reach the Foundation Establishment stage."
"How is that possible..."
Inside the room, another round of whispered sweet nothings ensued.
……
After obtaining the rubbing of the "Nine Revolutions Profound Yuan Technique," Li Jing couldn't wait to return to his room to cultivate it.
Chen Chi went to the main hall of the Enforcement Hall to see how Zhao Chenfeng would arrange for the new members who had joined the Enforcement Hall.
The members' cultivation levels varied, so the other commanders present all turned their attention to those with higher cultivation levels.
A new member at the first level of Qi Refining was assigned by Zhao Chenfeng to Wu Changkong, who was not present.
Chen Chi thought to himself, it seems that Zhao Chenfeng, the steward, also has a problem with Wu Changkong.
When it came to Guan Chuqin, who had reached the sixth level of Qi Refining, Zhao Chenfeng did not make a decision on his own, but instead asked Guan Chuqin for his opinion.
Guan Chuqin glanced at Chen Chi sitting to the side and said:
"Deacon Zhao, I would like to join Commander Qi's enforcement team."
Zhao Chenfeng remained calm and turned to look at Chen Chi:
"Qi Sheng, what do you think?"
"Have you thought it through?" Chen Chi was quite surprised by Guan Chuqin's decision.
In the selection of leaders outside Cloud Mist Valley, Guan Chuqin was one of the two Qi Refining Level 6 rogue cultivators he defeated.
Unexpectedly, after joining the Law Enforcement Hall, Guan Chuqin was willing to be under his command.
Guan Chuqin nodded solemnly and clasped his hands in a fist salute to Chen Chi, saying:
"Commander Qi defeated me with his cultivation at the fifth level of Qi Refining, and I am completely convinced of my defeat."
"From now on, I will be working under Commander Qi's guidance, and I hope the Commander can offer me some pointers."
"Of course," Chen Chi readily agreed.
Why not take advantage of a cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining?
Seeing Guan Chuqin join Chen Chi's forces, the other commanders present all looked on with envy.
These commanders were all at the mid-stage of Qi Refining, with the highest level being only at the sixth level of Qi Refining.
Having a subordinate with the cultivation level of a commander will be a real help in the future, whether it's carrying out missions or competing for resources.
Someone muttered something under their breath:
"Commander Qi is truly blessed."
Chen Chi pretended not to hear.
After Zhao Chenfeng finished arranging the assignments for the new members, the commanders dispersed and left the hall.
Chen Chi also wanted to leave, but Zhao Chenfeng stopped him.
"You've only just become the leader of the Enforcement Hall, how come you've already gotten into a dispute with Wu Changkong?" Zhao Chenfeng asked bluntly.
In response, Chen Chi explained:
"Wu Changkong is arrogant and looks down on cultivators with lower cultivation levels than him. I just wanted to put his arrogance to a minimum."
Zhao Chenfeng frowned slightly, glanced at Chen Chi, and softened his tone:
"Wu Changkong is a vengeful man. You embarrassed him in the Li Jing matter, and he will definitely retaliate."
"If he wants revenge, I'll take it," Chen Chi said nonchalantly.
He was worried that he couldn't get rid of Wu Changkong unscathed from the Zhao family. If Wu Changkong could plot against him, he might have a chance to kill Wu Changkong openly and honestly.
Hearing Chen Chi's words, Zhao Chenfeng gave him a meaningful look:
"You make it sound so easy. The two of you fighting means you don't respect me, your steward."
Chen Chi chuckled softly.
If he were to fight Wu Changkong, Zhao Chenfeng would probably be laughing in his sleep.
"Steward Zhao, you are too kind. I will certainly obey your orders."
Hearing Chen Chi say what he wanted to hear, Zhao Chenfeng forced a smile.
"Guan Chuqin is now under your command. You must work hard in your cultivation to prevent being unable to control him in the future."
Chen Chi patted his chest and said confidently:
"Don't worry, Steward Zhao."
After Chen Chi left, the guard at the gate of the Enforcement Hall quietly entered the hall and informed Zhao Chenfeng of what had happened at the gate that day.
After listening, Zhao Chenfeng waved his hand, signaling the guard to step down.
"Why does Qi Sheng harbor such deep hatred for Wu Changkong?"
After pondering for a long time, Zhao Chenfeng still couldn't figure out the reason, so he simply stopped thinking about it.
As long as these two can keep fighting each other, it's a great thing for him.
