For the next few days, the generals of the Northern Zhou military explained that they were on edge and did not dare to go out and have fun during their reports as they had done in the past.
When they did go out, they did so in groups of five or more, not daring to give the slightest opportunity.
In doing so, the Green Dragons had fewer opportunities to kill their targets, and on a few occasions they even failed to do so.
However, in the end, they were only here to report for duty and eventually had to return to their original quarters. If they were travelling in a group in the Divine Capital City, they couldn’t go back to their quarters as well.
So, Yun Wuyue had been waiting for an opportunity.
As for Qing Yu, he had left all the a*sa*sination matters to Yun Wuyue, and had been idling himself in a certain mountain village outside the Divine Capital, silently polishing his essence.
After the late stage of the Divine Origin realm, if one wanted to reach the peak and obtain the opportunity to advance to the True Dan, one had to polish the Essence, Qi and Spirit triad to perfection, so that the three of them could fuse and intersect.
In this process, due to Qing Yu’s own special condition, his progress can be seen in his appearance.
As his spirit shone back into his flesh, every bit of polishing brought the three elements closer together, and gradually increased the amount of white hair on his head.
When all of Qing Yu’s black hair had turned white, that was the day he had accomplished his great work.
In these few days of polishing his essence and energy, Qing Yu’s white hair was no longer covered up like before, although it was still not obvious, but the silvery white colour hidden in his black hair could be seen.
On this day, Qing Yu was kneeling on top of a purposely built high building, basking in the sun while polishing the three elements to make them more compatible.
A long head of hair fell down his back, shining in the sunlight, appearing extraordinarily ebony, with a few strands of silvery-white brightness mixed in with the ebony lustre, at once a little blinding and very harmonious.
“What is it?”
Qing Yu could hear the sound of someone coming up the stairs, and if it wasn’t important, the subordinates wouldn’t dare to disturb him so easily.
A black figure came up to the top floor in a soft voice and in a hurry, half-kneeling and saying, “There is an important matter over at the Third Dragon Head, please ask the Great Dragon Head to come over for a chat.”
This Third Dragon Head was naturally Yan Nanfei, also known as Feng Jiu.
During this period of time, although Qing Yu had not been in seclusion, this silent polishing of the Three Dragons took an unknown amount of time. Therefore, Qing Yu handed the a*sa*sination matter to Yun Wuyue, and pulled Feng Jiu to the position of Third Dragon Head, leaving other matters to Feng Jiu.
Feng Jiu had to deal with the affairs of the court every day anyway, so a little more wouldn’t hurt.
“Go down.” Qing Yu said.
The black figure retreated quietly again.
‘An important matter, but it should not be that critical to the big picture right now. Otherwise, Feng Jiu wouldn’t still be busy grading the pages of a memorial, but would have come straight to me.’
”But if it’s not urgent, how can it be called an important matter?”
Qing Yu’s figure abruptly disappeared from the futon on the top floor, and his figure flickered in the distance, moving continuously towards the divine capital with ‘Harmony with Light’.
Although he was now considered a big man, Qingyu never appreciated the carriage that big men had to use when they travelled.
The frame was a comfortable and dignified thing, but that was the only two uses for it.
Qing Yu had not forgotten that Ouyang Yan and the others had previously travelled to the palace in a carriage before they were one step ahead of themselves and had contacted Feng Jiu to set them up.
Therefore, Qing Yu has always believed that this so-called carriage is both in itself and unnecessary, as a martial artist, strength is the most important thing, why do you need a carriage to think about your identity.
If you have Tong Shen realm cultivation, flying through the air and descending from the sky, that is the real show identity.
Without further ado, Qing Yu used the “Harmony of Light and Dust” to hurry along the way, and with the “Qi Double Stream” to continue the journey, naturally his true qi was not in danger.
In just a few moments, Qing Yu had already reached the palace gates, very quickly. With the “Harmony of Light”, there was no need to worry about anyone discovering his whereabouts.
Just like last time, he entered the palace through the main gate.
The guards at the gate were forbidden soldiers, so there was no suspicion of laziness, but even though they were vigilant, they still did not notice Qing Yu’s pa*sing figure.
There was not a breeze, nor was there any premonition, so they let Qing Yu enter the Imperial City without the slightest hint of detection.
After entering the palace, Qing Yu once again reached the East Palace with ease, outside Feng Jiu’s bedchamber.
This time, Ou Jian Yuan was not in the bedchamber, but was practising martial arts in the square not far away.
The imperial guards were guards, not guards, and could not really follow Feng Jiu around 12 hours a day.
They also had their own needs. Those like Qi Si Bo, who followed closely all day, were not here for protection.
So, Qing Yu flashed into the bedchamber and slowly revealed himself beside Feng Jiu, who was buried in his paperwork.
Feng Jiu, who was in the middle of correcting his papers, suddenly noticed the presence of another person beside him and his heart jumped.
The contact between the robber and the robber slave was one-way under Qing Yu’s deliberate shielding, so only he could sense Feng Jiu, while Feng Jiu could not sense his presence.
However, after seeing that it was Qing Yu, Feng Jiu settled down.
“Your progress has become more and more impenetrable.” Feng Jiu looked at the increasing white hair on Qing Yu’s head and said.
All of his power came from Qing Yu, so he also knew Qing Yu’s realm very well. He knew the significance of this white hair to Qing Yu.
But he did not know that this advancement was so fast.
Just now, if he hadn’t been alert enough to keep his eyes on the side when he was correcting the documents, he wouldn’t have been able to feel Qing Yu’s form as he stood beside him.
This is also the result of Qing Yu not having deliberately collected his breath.
“If you can see through me, why should I practice martial arts?” Qing Yu said helplessly.
If even he, the robber slave, could detect the robber master’s reality, then Qing Yu, the robber master, might as well crash to death.
“Enough of idle talk, you said you have something important, what is it?”
Qing Yu looked at Feng Jiu, looking at him, he did not look like he had any urgent matters.
“It’s an important matter, but it’s not urgent either.” Feng Jiu took out an official document and said, “Department Six of the Great Qian has submitted an official document to the Northern Zhou, saying that an important criminal of the Great Qian has infiltrated into the territory of the Northern Zhou, and he hopes that the Northern Zhou will let Department Six send people into the territory to search for him.”
“Oh?” Qing Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, “Since when did Department Six of the Great Qian talk about such rules?”
The intelligence agency of Department Six, Yunlai Inn, had even opened in the divine capital, and among the Four Divine Constables, Lu Qifeng and Meng Wuchang could come and go whenever they wanted to, since when did they have to submit official documents to the Northern Zhou court?
Inexplicably, Qing Yu thought of his old boss, his old rival, Lu Qifeng, the ‘Wind Chasing Divine Constable’.
He had a vague feeling that this might be the handiwork of Lu Qifeng again.
“This, you should know after reading the official documents.” Feng Jiu said.
“Is that so ——”
Qing Yu flipped open the official document.
Then he saw the name of that wanted criminal.
“Li Xin.”
