The blind girl is called a saint with a sword!

She suddenly pulled out a rope.

This is no ordinary rope.

If she hadn't listened with her ears or touched it, An Qingwan wouldn't have been able to detect the existence of this rope using the Emperor's Qi Observation Technique.

"This is a rope woven from the silk spun by the Eastern Sea Heavenly Silkworm. The most special thing about the Eastern Sea Heavenly Silkworm is that it is not affected by internal energy. No matter how terrifying the internal energy is, it cannot harm this rope in the slightest. Using this rope to bind people in the martial arts world is the most effective. Even you and I would need to use a lot of force to break this rope."

Leng Qingyou tied one end of the rope around her ankle and handed the other end to An Qingwan.

“If you pull this rope, I will definitely trip over it, then you will believe that I will not harm you, right?”

An Qingwan: "..."

How could they have done this much?

She was deeply surprised and increasingly couldn't understand what Leng Qingyou was up to.

An Qingwan smiled and said, "Since Lord Leng has shown such great sincerity, how could I refuse to cooperate? I just don't know how Lord Leng wants to cooperate. The problem right now is that we have no idea where Garuda King is hiding."

Leng Qingyou said, "This matter is not particularly difficult. Does Miss An know that Garuda King has a huge weakness?"

An Qingwan said, "Oh? I'd like to hear the details."

Leng Qingyou smiled and said, "King Garuda is a Turkic man who is as orthodox as can be. His actions throughout his life were both to pursue greater martial prowess and to make the Turkic people stronger. This may be related to his childhood experiences. When King Garuda was young, the Turkic people were not the dominant force on the grasslands. At that time, the Turkic people suffered greatly from the bullying of the surrounding tribes. It is said that King Garuda's father and brothers died in the invasion of the surrounding tribes."

"Later, Emperor Taizu of the Great Liang Dynasty led five armies on a northern expedition, completely defeating the Xianbei tribes on the grasslands. The Turks finally had the opportunity to rise, and King Garuda became the leader of the Great Brightness Sect step by step, accompanying the rise of the Turks. As the leader, although he was at odds with the Turkic Khan, his actions were always in favor of the Turks, and he wanted the Turks to become better. If it weren't for this, he would never have risked his life to stop the Daoist Master when he went north five years ago."

"Now that the 20,000 elite Turkic troops have been scattered and the royal court is in great turmoil, once King Garuda learns of this, even if he is seriously injured, he will surely take action for the sake of the Turks. This is our opportunity."

An Qing nodded in the evening.

Unexpectedly, King Garuda was a ruthless Turk.

However, this is indeed good news.

If Garuda King truly remains hidden, there's nothing she can do. But if he dares to show himself, she can use Su Nong as a lead to find him.

"In that case, let's return to the Turkic royal court immediately."

Lan Xiaogu is currently near the Turkic royal court. An Qingwan is a little worried about her being away for so long.

Leng Qingyou did not refuse, and the two immediately returned.

When they found Lan Xiaogu, the Turkic royal court was indeed in chaos.

Thieves broke into the royal court, and then the Khan's tent exploded. The Khan disappeared without a trace. How could the royal court not be in chaos?

Some people hurriedly sent men out to search for him, while others were already arguing in the royal court, blaming each other, shirking responsibility, and even trying to pin the blame for the Khan's disappearance on their political enemies.

If nothing unexpected happens, the Turks will fall into a chaotic war between several forces, just as An Qingwan had previously predicted.

But just then, Lan Xiaogu reached out and poked An Qingwan's waist.

Although she couldn't see Lan Xiaogu's eyes, An Qingwan already understood what she meant—

Suzhou Agricultural University has taken action!

Garuda King's end has come!

P.S.: Thank you Night Wind Feather for the knife.

One three nine cold celadon glaze captures Garuda King, An Qingwan is behind [4k]

Sunong left the Turkic royal court, but An Qingwan did not rush to follow him immediately.

Firstly, they were worried that Garuda King might have some sophisticated reconnaissance methods, and that pursuing him too closely might expose them and alert him.

Secondly, she did not intend to tell Leng Qingyou this secret. Leng Qingyou had been hiding things from her and had used all sorts of tricks, so why should she reveal her own secrets to Leng Qingyou?

The two continued to keep an eye on it.

It wasn't until Yabghu Ashina Nagai, who had returned to the royal court with Sunong earlier, led his men out of the royal court that they finally took action.

"That person is the Yabghu, and also the most qualified to inherit the Khan's throne. In this time of chaos, he is not staying in the royal court, but has run away from it. There must be something wrong with him!"

The cold celadon glaze's gaze became sharp.

An Qingwan nodded in deep agreement.

Just now, Lan Xiaogu tapped her palm with her index finger.

The meaning is self-evident.

That Gai walked in the same direction as Su Nong.

Clearly, Nagai was also summoned by King Garuda.

What's the point of waiting any longer?

An Qingwan and Leng Qingyou followed behind the lid without saying a word.

In terms of tracking, An Qingwan wasn't particularly skilled, since she hadn't studied it. She relied purely on brute force, using her superior senses to track the other party.

But cold celadon glaze is different.

Not only is she exceptionally skilled in light-footed martial arts, but she is also an expert among experts in tracking.

Using her methods, the group traveled along the way, almost like sightseeing, yet they managed not to lose track of Gai.

a few days later.

Northern foot of Jinshan Mountain.

"I never imagined that Garuda King would be hiding in such a place!"

Whether it was An Qingwan, Lan Xiaogu, or Leng Qingyou, they all felt a sense of surprise.

This place is located more than 1,500 li west of Yanran Mountain. After crossing the Jinshan Mountains, to the southeast lies the Hexi Corridor, the area now occupied by the Great Qin Heavenly King. To the southwest are the fifty-five kingdoms of the Western Regions, the area where the Heavenly Sect is active.

The Heavenly Sect and the Great Light Sect have always been at odds. Garuda King hiding here is truly audacious, but also quite ingenious.

If he hadn't been so attached to the Turks that he deliberately revealed his weakness, who would have thought he would be hiding in such a seemingly dangerous place?

An Qingwan suggested, "Now that we've determined his location, let's act immediately to avoid any unforeseen complications."

There is no objection to the use of cold celadon glaze.

The two discussed the possible unexpected events that might occur during the operation, and each proposed a solution. Then, under the cover of darkness, they secretly sneaked into the underground palace where Garuda King was hiding.

……

It was August.

Mid-Autumn Festival has passed.

Jinshan Underground Palace, a secret chamber with walls covered in relief carvings.

The heavily injured Garuda King stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the reliefs on the wall with a look of deep emotion.

These reliefs are no ordinary objects; they depict the legends of the Turkic ancestors.

Legend has it that the ancestors of the Turkic people were all killed when foreign enemies invaded. He was young at the time and was spared. Later, he was rescued by a she-wolf. When he grew up, he mated with the she-wolf, who became pregnant and gave birth to ten boys. These ten boys grew up, started their own families, and reproduced. One of them was named Ashina, and he is the ancestor of the Ashina tribe.

"The hardships that our Turkic ancestors endured were a hundred times greater than mine, yet they were not defeated. They eventually made the Turkic people strong and gave them the means to contend for supremacy on the grasslands. I have only been injured by the Dao Lord, not truly dead. What is there to give up on?"

King Garuda muttered to himself.

Whenever he felt down, he would come to this secret room to look at the reliefs, and each time he finished looking at them, he would cheer up again.

This time was no exception.

Imagining the struggles of his Turkic ancestors and recalling the hardships he had endured, King Garuda swept away the pent-up frustration of the past few days and regained his boundless ambition.

He also possesses the Blood Transformation Divine Gu, the Great Light **, and countless Turkic people; his future is bound to be filled with infinite light!

"The darkness will eventually dissipate. From the shores of the North Sea to the coast of the South Sea, from the Western Paradise to the Eastern Netherworld, all under heaven will one day chant the name of the Bright Lord!"

As King Garuda was immersed in his boundless imagination about the future, there was a sudden knock on the door of his secret chamber.

"Master, everyone who received the decree from the Venerable One has arrived here!"

A respectful voice came from outside.

King Garuda composed himself and said in a majestic voice, "Have those who have received the Light Token wait outside the Wolf Den. I will meet with them one by one. Have those who have received the Divine Fire Token rest first. I will meet with them again tomorrow."

The person outside hurriedly replied, "Yes, Master!"

After the people outside had gone far away, Garuda King straightened his clothes and prepared to leave the secret chamber.

Just then, a person suddenly emerged from the shadows beneath one of the reliefs.

The person was completely covered in black, making it impossible to discern their appearance or figure.

He said in a hoarse and broken Turkic accent, "Don't forget what you promised me."

King Garuda said, "Don't worry, after I've calmed down the turmoil within the Turkic Khaganate, I will immediately head to the Western Regions and teach the Heavenly Venerable a lesson."

The man in black nodded and said, "It's good that you remember."

As he spoke, he once again disappeared into the shadows.

Garuda King pushed open the door and went out.

He vaguely remembered that he met the man in black four years ago.

At that time, he suffered greatly from the Taiping Zhenshi Fu (a type of Taoist talisman) of the Daoist Master. No matter what method he used, he could never eradicate the true energy of the Taiping Zhenshi Fu that was entrenched in his meridians.

Just when he was feeling utterly hopeless, the man in black suddenly appeared from some hidden corner and said he wanted to make a deal with him.

That's when he obtained the Blood Transformation Divine Gu.

At first, he didn't believe that the man in black was really capable.

Even after witnessing the effects of the Blood Transformation Divine Gu firsthand and confirming that it wouldn't allow him to be controlled by the man in black, he still didn't trust him.

But four years of trials and tribulations have passed, and the man in black still hasn't shown him any malice. He gradually came to believe that the man in black really wanted to use him to deal with the Heavenly Sect.

"Now that the Dao Lord is dead, the martial arts world of the Central Plains all think that I am seriously injured and cannot recover in a short time. I can take advantage of this situation, pretend that I really cannot recover, hide my identity, and focus on dealing with the Heavenly Sect. I will show myself when the martial arts world of the Central Plains is fighting each other to the death."

"As for the Holy Master Cangming and the Yinji Sect..."

That's it.

King Garuda shook his head.

When the Holy Master Cangming came to him for cooperation, he and the Holy Master Cangming discussed many collaborations.

But given the current situation, he couldn't care less about those collaborations; he'd just let the Holy Master Cangming deal with the headache alone.

Anyway, they didn't have any real relationship, and Master Cangming was just trying to use him.

Garuda King soon arrived at the wolf's den.

He called out to each of those who had received the Order of Light to enter the wolf's den.

This time, he gathered people and sent out tokens divided into Light Tokens and Divine Fire Tokens.

Those who received the Divine Fire Token were the younger generation who held high positions in the Turkic Khaganate and were loyal to the Great Light. He summoned these people to help them rise to power and revitalize the Turkic Khaganate.

Those who received the Light Order were the ones he had planted the Blood Transformation Divine Gu in. He summoned these people to help him recover from his injuries and, incidentally, improve his martial arts skills.

A Turkic expert who had just entered the wolf's den was all smiles, but as soon as he opened his mouth, his smile vanished.

With a single gesture from a distance, Garuda King absorbed him into his palm.

Then, he discovered that all his internal energy had leaked into Garuda King's body, as if it were water from a leaky sieve.

He was immediately alarmed and struggled desperately while questioning King Garuda.

"Master, what are you doing?"

King Garuda shook his head and sighed, "I didn't want to take action against you so soon. After all, you have followed me for many years, and you have worked hard even if you haven't made any great contributions. But the situation is urgent now. The Turks cannot be without a Grandmaster for a single day. I no longer have time to cultivate other bloodlines, so I have no choice but to sacrifice you. May you have a safe journey. After your death, I will take good care of your families and let them enjoy wealth and honor for generations. If the Turks gain the world in the future, I will build a Hall of Meritorious Officials for you so that the descendants of the Turks can worship you for eternity!"

The Turkic expert who had been subdued changed his expression in horror.

He didn't want wealth or honor for his family, or eternal worship; he just wanted to live.

But he had been infected with the Blood Transformation God Gu for many years. Now, how could he possibly resist King Garuda?

He could only watch helplessly as his inner strength was drained, and then the Blood Transformation Divine Gu, carrying his life force, crawled into Garuda King's body.

Terrified, yet utterly helpless.

"hiss--"

King Garuda took a deep breath and felt extremely refreshed.

"next."
