Ever since he came to the Great Zhou, he had been marveling at the peace of the Great Zhou.
After all, the Great Qi Kingdom had already been reduced to a miserable state under the rule of the Immortal sects. People who starved to death were everywhere.
Therefore, before coming to Guanzhou County, he thought that he had already seen the most peaceful country in the world.
However, after coming to Linjiang, the prosperity of this place refreshed his understanding again. This was not even a prefectural city. It was only a county city in the periphery. Even the richest city here was only a county city. But it was actually so prosperous.
It was even more prosperous than the capital of the Great Qi Kingdom.
āHer Majestyās merit is unparalleled. Deva Pei is also a famous ruler. Itās really a great blessing for the Great Zhou to have these two.ā Hong Kang could not help but praise.
He could not help but compare Great Qi, which he had lived in for nearly a hundred years, to this place, but he quickly gave up. Because there was no comparison at all.
Compared to the Great Zhou, Great Qi was completely trash, a puppet state controlled by the Immortal sects.
Cui Heng looked around and could not help but click his tongue in wonder.
…
Li Mingqiong and Pei Qingshu were indeed very good at governing the country. It was no wonder that the Great Zhou was so united. It was as difficult as ascending to the heavens for people from the Immortal Sects to infiltrate.
āDonāt just be emotional.ā Cui Heng chuckled and said, āCome with me to take a walk around Guanzhou.ā
āYes, Young Master,ā Zhang Shuming and Hong Kang said in unison.
Cui Heng led everyone around Guanzhou City and only found an inn to stay in at dusk as a place to rest.
After all, Hong Shen was just a child. He was tired after a day of playing. Hong Kang also relaxed for once and rested very quickly.
Zhang Shuming came to Cui Hengās room late at night.
āGreetings, Exalted Immortal.ā Zhang Shuming bowed respectfully and said, āExalted Immortal, Iāve already investigated the people who observed us in secret during the day.ā
āTheyāre from the Imperial Court and the Linjiang Pei Family, right?ā Cui Heng smiled.
Actually, although they did not encounter anything along the way, there were people secretly observing them. At first, it was just a group of Xiantian experts, but later, it became an Inner World expert.
When they arrived at Guanzhou County, a Deity Realm expert actually appeared.
āYes.ā Zhang Shuming nodded and said, āThere are two groups of people. The small group is the Imperial Courtās patrol guards. They are in charge of the national patrol and strictly prevent people from the Immortal Sects from infiltrating the country.
āThe number of people has only increased near Linjiang. They should have been sent by the Linjiang Pei Clanās Naxian Hall. Many Inner World experts, Deity Realm experts, and even Human Immortals are gathered there as guest elders.ā
āThereās Human Immortals?ā Cui Heng was a little surprised.
Other than coming from an Immortal sect, there were only two other sources for Immortal realm experts in the Heavenly Void World. They were either from the Imperial Court or from the 24 aristocratic families and Nine Preeminent Families. There were almost no Immortal realm experts who cultivated independently.
The appearance of Human Immortals meant that the experts of the aristocratic families had already joined the Linjiang Pei Clan.
āItās said that those two Human Immortals are from the Song family of Guichuan, and the Tang family of Mao County.ā Zhang Shuming explained tirelessly, āThey were both once wealthy families, one of the 20 aristocratic families.
However, in order to chase after a certain person and to vent their anger, the Immortal sects destroyed their families. At the same time, nine other aristocratic families were destroyed. There were a total of ten.
These two Human Immortals were lucky enough to escape. They could only hide their identities and did not dare to use their true faces to scare others. In their desperation, they joined the Linjiang Pei familyās Naxian Hall.
āHowever, the Naxian Hall of the Linjiang Pei family is only controlled by a young Inner World expert called Pei Yuezhi. The vice-captain is only a Deity Realm expert called Chen Shihui. How could they control two Human Immortals?ā
āThe Song family of Guichuan and the Tang family of Mao County?ā Cui Heng was stunned for a moment before shaking his head. āI remember that they were among the aristocratic families who descended to the Lower World to collect Heaven Dew Crystals. What are their names?ā
āTang Huaiyi and Song Zhong. They are both Human Immortals who have descended to the Lower World. Exalted Immortal, youāve seen them before,ā Zhang Shuming reported. With his peak Deity Realm cultivation, it was not difficult for him to investigate some things.
āThatās strange. I let the two of them go, but after they returned to the Upper World, their sects were destroyed by the Immortal sects they were loyal to.ā Cui Heng chuckled. āAs for the Naxian Hall, it should be Hui Shiās doing.ā
To those who were familiar with Hui Shi, the name Chen Shihui was too easy to guess.
āItās him?ā Zhang Shuming was not familiar with Hui Shi. Only then did he understand and nod. āThatās right. Heās already a Deva. Itās naturally easy for him to control two Human Immortals.ā
āThen weāll stay here first and take a look at the new things here.ā Cui Heng smiled. At the same time, he looked in the direction of Linjiang City. āI reckon someone will come to look for us soon. There wonāt be many days of leisure.ā
In the county office of Guanzhou County.
County Magistrate Wang Qian was walking back and forth anxiously. From time to time, he would look outside, as if he was waiting for something
Under the night sky, only his footsteps echoed in the huge county office.
The county deputy, official registrar, county lieutenant, and the others stood at the side, their faces filled with helplessness.
They obviously did not know how to persuade him.
Wang Qian looked outside and realized that it was empty again. He looked at the few people present and sighed. āMr. Tang and Mr. Song arenāt here yet?ā
āNo.ā The county deputy shook his head. āIāve already placed constables everywhere. As soon as the two of them arrive, there will definitely be constables coming to report.ā
āCounty Lord, youāre in too much of a hurry.ā The registrar could not help but say, āAre the few people who came during the day enough to make you afraid?ā
āNonsense!ā Wang Qian glared at the registrar and sat down dejectedly. āYouāre not at the Deity Realm, so you canāt feel the terrifying pressure emitted by those people.
Especially that Young Master. In my divine power perception, heās like a god that has descended from the sky. He has boundless power. Iām afraid only a true Human Immortal has such strength.ā
āThat exaggerated?ā The county lieutenant was rather surprised and could not help but feel a little nervous.
He knew Wang Qianās strength very well, but if Wang Qianās description was true, could it be that a Human Immortal from the Immortal sects had really infiltrated?
Whether it was the Great Zhou Dynasty or the entire Linjiangās Pei family, this was a huge matter.
āCounty Lord, reporting to the County Lord!ā
At this moment, a bailiff hurriedly jogged over from outside and said to Wang Qian, āCounty Lord, Tang Huaiyi and Song Zhong have arrived. They have already been placed in the restaurant at the southern city gate.ā
āThatās great. Iāll go and pay my respects now. Thereās hope!ā Wang Qian was overjoyed. He didnāt even have time to change his clothes before he ran to the southern city gate in his loose official uniform.
The registrar and county lieutenant hurriedly followed.
The restaurant at the south city gate of Guanzhou County was the most high-end restaurant. The two Human Immortals had come too suddenly, and arranging for them to stay here was only sufficient to maintain the most basic respect.
The next day, they would officially welcome them to the county office.
However, Wang Qian was clearly panicking. As soon as the two of them arrived, he ran into the restaurant with his men. āGreetings, Immortals.ā
Tang Huaiyi and Song Zhong looked at the county magistrate in surprise, their hearts filled with doubts.
The two of them were indeed transferred overnight because of Wang Qianās request for help. They only knew that Wang Qian had encountered an extremely huge problem. They originally expected it to be a Human Immortal level difficulty, so they were asked to come over.
āSpeak, whatās the matter?ā Tang Huaiyi asked first.
āIn the request we received, you only mentioned the level of danger and didnāt describe it in detail,ā Song Zhong said in a low voice. āExplain the situation.ā
āA Human Immortal from an Immortal sect might have sneaked into Guanzhou City and brought someone with him.ā Wang Qian said extremely cautiously, āI would like to invite the two Immortals to meet that āYoung Masterā in secret.
āAt the same time, see if you can find out his identity and background, confirm if heās from an Immortal sect, and if he has any ill intentions?ā
