Chapter 634: Chapter 0634: Changyang (Additional 8200, Seeking Monthly Tickets)

“The quantity, based on my estimation, is best controlled within five items…you have already absorbed two weird creatures, strive for no more than three next, to make the Weird Elixir perfect!”

Only weird creatures of high quality would suffice.

If lower grade ones like the finger bones from Xiaozhai Village and black cloth were used, almost twenty of them would be barely enough to achieve perfection, which would result in impurity in the Elixir, adding difficulty in the future.

“Three… high-rank weird creatures like the Jade Heart?”

Xu Changqing muttered.

He was definitely unwilling to become a disgusting beast, and possibly lose his own mind: “That’s a bit difficult…”

“No… ideally, you would succeed in one fell swoop next time, breaking through the barrier!”

Su Lu said calmly.

“All the items left by the ghost won’t do, they must be ‘beasts’, and extremely powerful ones at that!” Xu Changqing drew a cold breath.

“If you want to become a powerful Immortal, go further than other Immortals, and eventually take revenge, you have to hold yourself to high and demanding standards…”

Su Lu chuckled: “Additionally… we just happen to have a suitable target!”

“What target?”

“The son of Xiang Liu!”

…

Three days later.

In the garden of the Demon Bureau, within the Chunfeng Pavilion.

“Bro…”

With one arm missing, Pan Shu helplessly looked at Xu Changqing: “Although you took the lead in this mission, that weird creature… sigh… nevermind… let’s drink.”

After losing an arm, he became much more placid. Xu Changqing heard that he was planning to retire.

Thanks to various spells, wounds in this world heal quickly. Pan Shu was like this, it was not due to physical incapacity, but his genuine intent to retire.

“Drink!”

Xu Changqing laughed and drank his wine in one shot.

“But don’t worry, Brother Xu. You’ve saved everyone in the Demon Bureau. A mere weird creature… Mr. Jiang was just a little uncomfortable, he’ll get over it in a few days…”

Pan Shu comforted his young brother: “The only concern is Linfeng Immortal and his sect… but he won’t have time for you recently, the son of Xiang Liu has been trapped in Lin’s Mansion, a great battle is imminent.”

“The son of Xiang Liu?!”

Xu Changqing’s eyes lit up as he remembered Grandfather’s instructions.

“That thing is a disaster… fortunately, he ran into Lin’s Mansion, but our Demon Bureau might still have to be mobilized for the war…”

Pan Shu shook his head: “I just hope I can retire before the mobilization order arrives…”

“Unfortunately, Vice Captain Pan, your wishes are going to be dashed…”

At this moment, a young man in armor walked in. It was Jiang Yufeng, the Captain of the Demon Bureau, followed by the stern-faced Vice Captain, Yuan Henshan. As for the other Vice Captain, Cheng Fei, he had tragically died during the Evil Tree calamity, his body was feared to be tainted, and was burned to ashes.

“Sir!”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Pan Shu and Xu Changqing rose to greet him.

Jiang Yufeng’s eyes swept over Xu Changqing,and he coughed slightly: “Summoning order from the Summit, the son of Xiang Liu is trapped in Changyang Mountain, all the nearby Demon Bureau and Cultivating sects must gather forces and proceed to assist! This is an imperial order, nobody can evade, and violators will be executed without mercy!”

Pan Shu’s face turned pale, he forced a smile: “Understood.”

“Yes, sir.” Xu Changqing bowed.

“Well, you don’t have to worry.”

Jiang Yufeng scanned the room and then smiled warmly: “This time, several real Immortals and the Heixuan Sect, Sandong Mountain and other Cultivating Sects will lead the charge, we are only responsible for the perimeter and logistics, the risk is not high…”

In fact, this was nonsense, as even facing demons bore certain risks, let alone extremely powerful weird creatures.

In this world, places that truly had no risk did not exist.

“Changyang Mountain?”

Xu Changqing silently clenched his fists.

In his mind, Su Lu spoke up: “A good opportunity… Xiang Liu’s son is a powerful and strange creature, with a pure bloodline. Even if we can’t obtain the Weird Creatures he left behind, if we can transplant some of his bloodline, it should be enough to meet your needs.”

“It is a mountain range located at the border of Heize Mansion and Lin Mansion, filled with gloomy atmosphere and miasma. There’s a highly poisonous swamp nearby…”

Pan Shu explained to Xu Changqing: “Perhaps the imperial court is dispatching us to go there, serving as pathfinders.”

“Exactly, we must set out within three days, prepare as soon as possible.”

Jiang Yufeng left with his hands behind him.

“Ah…”

It wasn’t until his figure completely disappears that Pan Shu let out a long sigh.

…

Three days later.

Around the highly poisonous swamp of Changyang Mountain.

A temporary camp had been built, and it was already of considerable size.

The gate of the camp was wide open, and groups of three and five horsemen galloped into it from time to time. Each knight was a Spirit Refining-level warrior, with an extremely grave expression on their faces.

“We’re finally here.”

That day, Jiang Yufeng of Qingyang City arrived at the camp outskirts with Xu Changqing and Pan Shu.

As for Yuan Henshan, the vice-captain, he stayed back in Qingyang City, taking care of the defenses during this period.

This was not an easy job either, and the dangers in his encounters may not be less than those encountered on this trip.

Though …Pan Shu really wished that he would have that job.

Xu Changqing looked at Pan Shu beside him sympathetically, silently followed Jiang Yufeng into a tent, and watched the captain enter the meeting. He and Pan Shu awaited outside.

Not long after, the tent was lifted, and an old Taoist with a goat’s beard walked out first.

He glanced at Xu Changqing, who immediately felt his body shiver, as if his secrets were completely exposed.

‘Immortal?’

Su Lu was very calm, this Feather Transforming Immortal was just fifth level, and even if he was at the sixth level, he wouldn’t able to see through his disguise, otherwise, there would be no need to worry about how to deceive the Abyss.

“Are you Danyunzi’s new disciple?”

The goatee-bearded Taoist didn’t leave, but stroked his beard and smiled: “Good …very good! I am Heixuan Immortal.”

“I see, it’s an honor to meet the Sect Master.”

Xu Changqing immediately bowed deeply.

He felt somewhat embarrassed in his heart, feeling Danyunzi had taken him as a disciple too casually. Also, he had ‘graduated’ too quickly, there were about a dozen people in the sect, but he knew only half of them.

“Hmm, this time we are going to encircle and suppress Xiang Liu’s son, you men from the Demon Bureau are only responsible for search duties in the swamp. Remember to be careful, don’t take unnecessary risks…”

Heixuan Immortal gave a few words of advice, then left effortlessly.

“Disciple obeys.”

Xu Changqing remained bowed, only standing up after Heixuan Immortal’s figure disappeared.

Pan Shu, who was beside him, did the same thing. When Heixuan Immortal left, Pan Shu said enviously: “Brother Xu… this time, your elder from the sect is here, so you are surely safe. Please look after me as well…”

He was really out of options. Though his magic artifact was powerful, but next time, would he have to stuff in another arm?

“I’ll try… I’ll try…”

Xu Changqing seemed to realize something, turned around, and saw Jiang Yufeng’s impassive face.

“This time, our mission is to explore a part of the swamp, and try to find traces of Xiang Liu’s son… you have all seen his portrait, haven’t you?”

Seeing Xu Changqing and Pan Shu nodded, Jiang Yufeng continued: “In addition, wherever Xiang Liu’s son has been, there must be a trail of deadly poison left behind, this is also a clue to find him… with the Immortal patrolling, he surely cannot escape from this swamp!”
