A blind man cultivates immortality and witnesses the great secret of the holy maiden in her bridal c

Xinghai City is not far from the capital.

Not far from Xinghai City lies a sea!

Every evening, the sea sparkles, the stars twinkle, and the sea breeze howls – it's a beautiful little town! Plus, with convenient sea transport and frequent trade, it's quite bustling on weekdays!

Qian Pengcheng led the group and spent more than three hours before finally arriving outside Xinghai City!

Just as they reached the outskirts of the city, a monster carrier pigeon landed on Qian Pengcheng's shoulder with a "flutter"!

Qian Pengcheng pulled out the secret letter from the carrier pigeon's leg, glanced at it, and his brows furrowed instantly!

Then, he said in a deep voice, "Everyone, follow me! We've discovered new traces of Tartar soldiers!"

The group rode their warhorses, clattering as they followed Qian Pengcheng to a village two kilometers away!

Before even entering the village, Chen Yang could smell the strong stench of blood!

He frowned slightly, then gripped Liu Qingxia's hand tightly, his spiritual energy circulating silently, ready to deal with any sudden danger!

Qian Pengcheng walked at the very front, his brows furrowed tightly!

Upon reaching the village entrance, he dismounted and became fully alert!

The people behind him also dismounted with Qian Pengcheng, and everyone consciously spread out, ready to deal with any sudden attack!

Upon entering the village, corpses lay scattered on the roadside, blood flowing like a river—a gruesome sight indeed!

Qian Pengcheng ignored the corpses and continued walking forward!

After walking about two hundred meters, he breathed a sigh of relief, turned to the people behind him, and said, "They're gone! Look at the corpses on the ground; they were here three hours ago!"

At this moment, some of the people behind them couldn't help but vomit, while others turned pale and were sweating profusely!

Only then did everyone realize that there wasn't a single living person in the entire village!

Everyone had died a gruesome death. The corpses on the ground were mangled, with many internal organs torn out and scattered all over the place!

More importantly, not a single child's body could be found in the entire village!

"vomit--!"

A woman behind them couldn't hold it in any longer and vomited on the spot!

A man in his forties, his veins bulging, gripped a steel knife tightly and roared angrily, "These beasts! They're slaughtering these unarmed residents, not sparing a single one!"

Qian Pengcheng sneered and said, "Heh, that's nothing!"

"They didn't come here to kill, they came here to find food! Haven't you noticed that all the children in this village are gone?"

Hearing this, everyone was even more furious!

Many of these people originally came for the spirit stones, but now they all wish they could find that group of Tartar soldiers immediately and tear them to pieces!

Qian Pengcheng waved his hand and said, "Everyone, spread out and look for any clues! See which direction they ran in!"

Chen Yang pulled Liu Qingxia out of the village, his brows slightly furrowed.

This was also the first time he had truly witnessed the cruelty of the Tartar soldiers!

Liu Qingxia's expression remained relatively calm, clearly indicating that she had already heard about the arrogance of the Tartar soldiers!

Liu Qingxia began, "Their people are a semi-nomadic tribe. Their Great Manchu Kingdom is actually a system of tribal integration, where many tribes unite to elect a Heavenly Khan, and everyone obeys the Heavenly Khan's orders!"

"Actually, I've heard that the Manchu soldiers weren't this brutal before, and relations between the two countries were relatively normal! But for some reason, in recent years they've become increasingly unscrupulous and brutal! Now it seems they can no longer be considered human beings!"

Chen Yang nodded slightly, then looked up at the sky!

In the air, the Black Iron Griffin transformed into a black dot and hovered above!

With a thought, Chen Yang controlled the Black Iron Griffin to search for traces of the Tartar soldiers in the surrounding area!

But after searching all over, I found nothing!

It seems the other party was aware of the danger, and hid after stealing the food.

Meanwhile, within the capital city!

Not far from the central square of Beijing, in a teahouse.

There are private rooms here exclusively for VIP guests!

Wearing a straw hat, Su Zhenzhen waited anxiously in the private room, constantly calculating the time!

She only has two days left, and she must get rid of Liu Qingxia within those two days!

"Bang!"

At that moment, the subordinate rushed in, pushing open the door to the private room!

Su Zhenzhen quickly asked, "How is it? Is there any news from the Prime Minister's residence?"

The subordinate, his face lighting up with delight, immediately cupped his hands and whispered, "Miss, we have news!"

"Chen Yang and Liu Qingxia didn't leave the city or go to Wanxing Academy! They accepted a mission from the Heroes' Ranking and are now on their way to Xinghai City to kill the Tartars!"

Su Zhenzhen was stunned, and an expression of disbelief appeared on her face!

She never expected it to turn out this way!

"I never expected Chen Yang and Liu Qingxia to be so arrogant and foolish!"

"Don't they realize they're in grave danger?"

Su Zhenzhen couldn't help but laugh, clenching her fists as she said, "Really? They didn't even bother to hide their identities and whereabouts?"

The subordinate happily said, "Miss, I reckon they didn't expect you to have such great power, to be able to keep tracking their movements! They certainly don't know that the people from the Prime Minister's Mansion have been secretly monitoring them all along! I guess those two are just being wary of other competitors of the Su family, which is why they're so relaxed, thinking that everything will be fine as long as they leave the Su family."

Su Zhenzhen revealed a sinister grin and said, "Good! Very good!"

"What did the Prime Minister's residence say? Now that their whereabouts have been pinpointed, and they've already left the capital, eliminating them should be easy, right?"

The subordinate hurriedly replied, "The people from the Prime Minister's residence said they are only responsible for providing Liu Qingxia's whereabouts and location! Furthermore, the group of escaped Tartar soldiers also have some connection to the Prime Minister's residence!"

"Right now, the Prime Minister's Mansion is unwilling to directly target Liu Qingxia; they are still somewhat afraid of the Su family's patriarch!"

Su Zhenzhen suddenly realized and said, "I understand! If we really anger this patriarch of the Su family, it's not impossible that she might slap everyone in the Prime Minister's mansion to death in a fit of rage!"

She changed the subject and asked, "Have you found out exactly what Chen Yang's strength is?"

The subordinate cautiously replied, "Miss, I've thoroughly questioned the relevant people! Chen Yang hasn't acted many times, but I asked Su Quan and the others, and according to them, Chen Yang's strength is unfathomable!"

"When he was still in the Blood Exchange Realm, he was able to suppress Su Quan and the other four with just one move! Moreover, the last time the Yin family was targeted by the Blood Shadow Pavilion and the Peng family, and almost wiped out, it was very likely that Chen Yang stepped in to resolve the crisis for the Yin family!"

"That's why that old devil Yin Huozun was so polite to Chen Yang! In fact, the people who were chasing and intercepting them at the Prime Minister's residence were those two—a beautiful woman and a blind man! They must be referring to Chen Yang and his companion."

"It seems even the people from the Prime Minister's residence couldn't catch them! I always felt that Chen Yang was a bit strange, not someone you could judge by ordinary standards!"

Su Zhenzhen nodded and said, "You think the same way I do! If someone said he was just an ordinary blind man who could instantly elevate Liu Qingxia to the ninth level of the Golden Body Realm, I would never believe it!"

She then asked, "Since the Prime Minister's residence is unwilling to intervene, how many people can we mobilize?"

The subordinate thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Miss, this operation is ultimately targeting Liu Qingxia! Our assassins are all Su family guards; I'm afraid word might leak out afterward!"

"However, I have an idea. We can make a deal with those Tartar soldiers!"

Su Zhenzhen pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay!"

"Come with me to see the people at the Prime Minister's residence and tell them our plan! We'll use the strength of those Tartar soldiers to completely eliminate Chen Yang and Liu Qingxia!"

"This way, there won't be any hidden dangers, and it's the safest option!"

The subordinate immediately nodded and replied, "Yes, Miss!"

Afterwards, the two concealed their presence and left the teahouse quietly.
