Why would a member of such a top-tier organization specifically come to Fujian?
Is it just for tourism and novelty?
Upon hearing Huang Yu's question, Liu replied, "I don't know what they're up to either."
"Based on the information gathered so far, they simply want to sell a vitality potion to the major families in Fujian and to engage in deeper cooperation in maritime trade."
"Vitality potion? What's that?" Huang Yu keenly grasped the key information.
Liu explained, "I've never used it either. It's said to be an alchemical potion that can restore youth and give you a vibrant body again."
Upon hearing this, Huang Yu narrowed his eyes. As a pharmacist himself, he knew best what these so-called "vitality potions" were.
They are either drugs that overdraw the body's potential and cause a short-lived burst of energy, or hallucinogens, similar to illicit drugs, that make the brain experience pleasure beyond the threshold.
Neither of them are good things.
Of course, there is also a final possibility: that this drug can indeed replenish vitality and physical strength, restoring people to their peak physical condition, making it a super tonic.
However, the cost of refining this tonic is too high, requiring a large amount of rare medicinal materials. It is usually kept as a last resort for saving lives, so how could it be traded on a large scale?
No, wait, there seems to be another possibility?!
Huang Yu pondered for a moment, then his expression changed as he suddenly realized something. He asked, "Have you ever seen anyone take this vitality potion? What happened after taking it? Did it really replenish the body's deficiencies?"
Liu nodded and said, "My fourth uncle used this medicine. He used to be an opium addict, and the family had given up on him. But somehow he got his hands on this vitality potion, and after taking it, his physical condition did improve."
"I've carefully examined it, and it's not a false improvement that depletes the body's potential, but rather a genuine replenishment of the body's deficiencies!"
At this point, a cold glint flashed in Huang Yu's eyes.
Such an inexpensive and widely available supplement could not possibly be made from rare medicinal herbs, so it must be made from another material.
As the most intelligent of all beings, at the top of the food chain... what in this world is more vital than a human being?
Huang Yu said in a deep voice, "Keep an eye on this group. Report to me if anything happens! It would be best to find out their purpose in coming to Fujian."
"Although in the military and political spheres, our country has become nothing more than a delicacy on the dinner table, in the world of supernatural beings, our country still has some foundation!"
"If the situation is investigated and the evidence is conclusive, then we can rightfully eliminate them."
"Even if we can't find any evidence, as long as there are any signs that they are doing evil, we will still wipe them out."
After a moment's hesitation, Liu said, "My lord, it seems there are nobles from Western Europe among them..."
Huang Yu said calmly, "It doesn't matter, whether you're a noble or not, it's all the same."
"Understood!" Liu nodded obediently.
As if remembering something, Huang Yu asked again, "By the way, do you know about the Trinity Sect?"
Liu was slightly taken aback, but immediately replied, "Of course I know. The Sanyi Sect is the top supernatural force in Fujian, and the Great Ying Immortal Zuo Ruotong is an immortal being!"
"Families in Fujian that have seen a bit of the world know about Zuo Ruotong."
After a pause, Liu added, "The Liu family donates to Sany Group every year, so they are considered major financial backers of Sany Group."
Huang Yu paused for a rare moment before asking, "Is the Liu family also a major financial backer of the San Yi Sect?"
Liu nodded: "Yes, in fact, most of the respectable families in Fujian are major financial backers of the Sanyi Sect."
"It's not for any particular reason, except to show respect to the Great Ying Immortal Zuo Ruotong, and to buy peace of mind and security."
"Whenever people encounter troubles in the martial arts world that they can't handle, they ask the Sanyi Sect to come and take a look."
"With them involved, most problems can be solved."
Huang Yu looked enlightened; to be honest, this somewhat shattered his understanding of the San Yi Sect.
I originally thought that the Trinity Sect only accepted donations from specific families, but I didn't expect that even a family like the Liu family, which is inclined towards darkness, was accepted by the Trinity Sect.
After a moment, Huang Yu shook his head with a laugh. Most people who can make a fortune in this era have some dark side.
Otherwise, one would not be able to amass such a large fortune, nor would one be able to preserve it!
This is a problem of the overall environment; the prevailing atmosphere is one of evil...
The Sanyi Sect, having lived deep in the mountains for so long, could not possibly be fully aware of everything, and their requirements for themselves were indeed quite strict.
Seeing Huang Yu's expression, Liu seemed to realize something and said ingratiatingly, "My lord, do you wish to make contact with the Sanyi Sect? Would you like the Liu family to act as an intermediary?"
“The Liu family donates a lot of money and goods to the Sanyi Group every year, so they have some influence.”
Huang Yu pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No need. Your current task is to continue to infiltrate the Liu family and secretly take control of them."
"Then there are two other side missions: maintaining the operation of Starfire Academy and gathering intelligence on that group of Westerners."
"You don't need to do anything else, so as not to cause any unnecessary trouble."
"Yes, ma'am!" Liu nodded, indicating that he understood.
In reality, Huang Yu felt that the Liu family's recommendation was not very useful and might even make it more difficult for him to infiltrate the Sanyi Sect.
It's important to know that the Sanyi Sect investigates the backgrounds of disciples who want to join the sect, and they go to great lengths to do so in great detail.
If he were to enter the San Yi Sect's assessment through the Liu family's recommendation, it might actually expose his existence and that of Liu.
Lies are so easy to expose.
A perfect lie is one that is itself a lie.
Huang Yu decided to stick to the original plan, disguise himself as Li Daniu, and beg his way to Sanyi Gate.
And that's exactly what he did, leaving countless traces along the way.
Although Huang Yu was delayed for more than a month in Fucheng, it didn't really matter.
The investigation by the Sanyimen was thorough, but not overly so. At most, they would go to Changcheng to check if Li Daniu had any problems with his past and to look at the traces of his journey south.
As long as these are genuine, there is no problem with their identity.
After explaining various matters to Liu, Huang Yu left Liu's house and disguised himself as Li Daniu once again!
It's time to start begging again.
Chapter 41 Arrival at Trinity Gate, Lower House Assessment
At the foot of the mountain at Sanyi Gate, Huang Yu looked at the mountain path and steps that stretched upwards and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He had finally arrived!
At this moment, he was dressed in rags and was very thin, looking exactly like a homeless beggar.
God knows what he's been through these past two weeks...
To make the effect realistic, he actually begged his way there, and he also deliberately suppressed his talent and luck, hiding all the abnormalities.
Yes, his life cultivation level is indeed high, but this also means that his energy consumption is high!
I'm hungry, really hungry!
Huang Yu staggered and gasped for breath as he climbed step by step toward the mountain gate of Sanyi Sect.
We're almost there!
Just as Huang Yu reached a dilapidated courtyard halfway up the mountain, a short-haired man dressed in white blocked his way.
"Young friend, may I ask what brings you to the Sanyi Gate?"
Huang Yu breathed a sigh of relief, knelt down on the ground, and said weakly, "Senior brother, my name is Li Daniu. I greatly admire the Sanyi Sect and wish to become its disciple."
The short-haired man remained silent for a moment. He had seen this situation before; some people had heard of the reputation of the Sanyi Sect and wanted to come and become its disciples.
But the Li Daniu in front of us looks like he's been begging all his way here, and his physical condition is extremely poor, which is a rare occurrence.
However, some information still needs to be inquired more deeply so that it can be reported to the master.
The short-haired man continued, "Where are you from? Why do you want to join the Trinity Sect?"
Huang Yu suddenly choked up, his eyes flashing with hatred: "I come from Dafeng Village near Changcheng. The village was attacked by bandits, and everyone in the village died!"
"Because I was playing around, I stayed in the woods and escaped disaster!"
"Senior brother, I want revenge! I want to learn real skills. I've heard that the people of the Sanyi Sect can regenerate severed limbs and are not afraid of guns and cannons. I want to learn these skills to avenge my family!"
Hearing this, the short-haired man sighed inwardly. Then, seeing that Huang Yu was weak, he said, "My name is Shuiyun. Come with me first. I will report your situation to my master later. If my master allows you to stay, you can stay."
Shuiyun led Huang Yu to a small courtyard halfway up the mountain.
This little courtyard looks quite old; the brass rings on the door are rusty, the walls are mottled and grayish-white, and some moss has grown in the corners.
squeak!
Pushing open the heavy wooden door, Huang Yu followed Shui Yun inside.
Looking around, the first thing that catches the eye is a dozen or so large water vats arranged in neat rows.
Then there was a boy in black trousers and a white shirt pouring water into a water tank, and a little boy with white hair chopping wood.
The two turned around at the same time and greeted each other in unison, "Hello, Senior Brother!"
Shuiyun nodded, then patted Huang Yu on the shoulder and introduced, "Lu Jin, Li Muxuan, this young man is also a disciple who has come to become an apprentice. You should prepare some food for him."
Lu Jin and Li Muxuan understood something when they saw Huang Yu's tattered appearance.
"Okay! We're cooking the porridge right now, it'll be ready to eat in a little while!"
Hearing Shuiyun and the others' conversation, Huang Yu suddenly understood that he had caught up with the process of Li Muxuan and the other two becoming disciples.
It seems that Li Muxuan and the others had already participated in the Lower Academy assessment, and the assessment was almost over; I had forced my way in.
Suppressing his thoughts, Huang Yu greeted the two men: "Greetings, senior brothers. My name is Li Daniu, and I have come to become your apprentice."
Lu Jin waved his hand and quickly said, "No, we just participated in the assessment and haven't formally become apprentices yet, so we can't be considered senior brothers. Just call me Lu Jin."
"We're cooking meat porridge right now, it should be ready in about 15 minutes."
Li Muxuan then took the initiative to come over and help Huang Yu up, and said with a smile, "My name is Li Muxuan. Brother Da Niu, please sit down first, I'll go get you a glass of water."
Seeing that Huang Yu was being taken care of, Shui Yun nodded in satisfaction: "Then you take care of Da Niu for now, I'll go report to my master."
After saying that, Shuiyun walked out of the courtyard.
……
The council hall at Trinity Gate.
Shuiyun walked in and said to Zuo Ruotong, who was sitting cross-legged on the futon, "Master, another disciple has just come from down the mountain who wants to become your disciple."
