Chapter 57 Not a buddy, the Ninth Rank Sect really has an all-around skill?
Chu Chen personally took the form with both hands and handed it to Li Hui. He then politely inquired about the recent changes in Xiao Zhengjun's family, as well as the evil spirits and demons Zhou Zheng had encountered while out, including the information about the Nine Streams Sect that had recently been unearthed.
Zhou Zheng recounted the situation in detail and explained what he could say, but he didn't tell them anything he couldn't let them know, lest they get into trouble and be killed.
Zhou Zheng took a sip of tea: "That's how it is. Liangcheng seems calm on the surface, but conservatively speaking, an evil force is plotting a shocking conspiracy. It's just that none of us know when this conspiracy will erupt. I've given you all the clues I can. The rest is up to you."
Chu Chen's expression was tense: "The situation in Liangcheng is a bit complicated."
Zhou Zheng: "It's very complicated. I don't understand why the Xu family case is related to Project 427. On the surface, there seems to be no connection between the two things."
Zhou Zheng had a vague guess about this. He guessed that the loss of the sun's blood made the dark forces feel that they had found an opportunity. Could it be that the sun's power was slowly weakening, and then at a suitable time, it would be easier to find the place where Zhu Yan was sealed or help Zhu Yan break through the seal?
Did the failure of their space program give them a clue?
Chu Chen stood up: "Thank you for your cooperation. Please let me know if you have any new information. This is my business card. We're here..."
Chu Chen glanced at Liu Zhen, swallowed his original official words, and changed his tone: "We will inform you if we have any new intelligence so that you can make a judgment."
Zhou Zheng stood up, took the business card, and put it into his storage ring: "Okay, thank you for your hard work. Please be careful; the fact that they've gone this far and are still concealing information means there must be someone inside working on it."
Chu Chen: "Thank you. It's so late, we won't bother you any longer, Boss Xiao. We'll be leaving now. As for your family... we won't send anyone over. We'll arrange for a special envoy from headquarters to protect you."
With a powerful figure of this caliber present, ordinary evil spirits would have a hard time disturbing this place. Assigning a special envoy to Xiao Zhengjun himself is simply a standard and necessary procedure.
Xiao Zhengjun: "Okay."
Chu Chen and his two companions politely took their leave, and once they stepped out the door, they left almost as quickly as if someone were chasing them.
Xiao Zhengjun held a cigarette in his hand but didn't light it: "Zhou Zheng, your Brother Liu really wasn't exaggerating, he really does have no one else in Ganzhou."
The three men from Teshuko had an incredibly high-and-mighty air about them—the way they walked, their seemingly humble yet arrogant expressions, and the "noble air" that emanated from their very bones. No matter how well they put on a show, their innate arrogance couldn't be concealed.
But in front of Liu Zhen, he was as obedient as a grandson, and in front of Zhou Zheng, he was no longer arrogant, but polite and courteous.
Liu Zhen laughed heartily: "You know I'm not pretentious at all, because nobody else is as arrogant as me, hahaha!"
Zhou Zheng looked at Xiaoxue, who was dozing off, and pulled her up: "Alright, it's already midnight, everyone should get some rest. Xiaoxue, wake up, go wash up."
Xiaoxue instinctively clung to Zhou Zheng, her soft, adorable voice trembling with confusion: "No, I want to be with you..."
Zhou Zheng quickly covered her mouth: "Your father is still alive."
Xiaoxue was instantly jolted awake. She quickly pushed Zhou Zheng away and stood up straight. Seeing her father's face as black as the bottom of a pot, she hurriedly ran upstairs: "I'm going to wash up!"
Xiao Zhengjun snapped the cigarette in his hand, his eyes blazing with fury as he stared straight at Zhou Zheng.
Xue Ting quickly interrupted, "Alright, alright, it's not what you think. It's just that our daughter is too weak, so Master Zhou helped her wash... wash what? Anyway, it's to improve our daughter's health."
Xiao Zhengjun hesitated, then crushed the cigarette in his hand before being dragged upstairs by his wife.
It wasn't that he couldn't accept his daughter dating this dangerous Taoist priest, but rather that he couldn't accept her being so quickly taken advantage of! He'd raised her for over twenty years! Over twenty years! And just like that, she was devoured by an outsider!
Tang Ying quickly turned around: "I'll go rest in the opposite side bedroom, you guys continue."
Liu Zhen shrugged, took out his phone, and sat down on the sofa: "I'm going to climb the rankings. I'm almost in the top ten in the state."
Xuan Yizi pretended not to exist and quietly ran to the east to lie down and rest, so as not to be caught in the crossfire.
Zhou Zheng sighed, ignoring the menacing look on the second-floor stairwell where someone was clinging to the handrail, unwilling to go in, and headed to the first-floor bathroom to wash up.
After washing up, Zhou Zheng returned to his bedroom and sat on the bed to rest.
Today's main takeaway was gathering crucial information about the Nine Streams Sect. From now on, when I encounter members of the Nine Streams Sect, I can simply look at their names, and the sect's name will be marked in my status bar. This will make it easier to apprehend people, gather clues, and launch attacks.
With a Golden Core Realm expert in charge, coupled with the Nine Streams Sect's miraculous techniques, a new calamity will befall the sect once its plan succeeds.
After thinking for a moment, Zhou Zheng sent Liu Zhen a message: "Brother Liu, can you send me the Nine Streams Sect's martial arts manual? I want to study how amazing it is that even the Abbot of Baiyun Temple is so afraid."
Liu Zhen: "I've been waiting for you to say that. I ordered a search a long time ago. There are only eleven core techniques and two ultimate moves. However, the Nine Streams Sect has more than just these few techniques. My subordinates said that the Nine Streams Sect had collected most of the techniques from the ten major sects of Ganzhou and achieved some success. They have great potential."
"By the way, would you like some advanced cultivation techniques? I've already prepared some for you."
Zhou Zheng: "High-level techniques take too long to develop. I'll use low-level techniques to hone my basic skills first. I'll consider high-level techniques once my combat strength is fully developed. Thank you, Brother Liu."
Liu Zhen: "Hey, it's nothing. I've packed it up and sent it to you. Don't tell anyone, this thing is really awesome in the secular world. The leader of the Nine Streams Sect is indeed a super genius who is proficient in many fields."
[Collection of Core Techniques of the Nine Schools (Part 1)]
[Collection of Core Techniques of the Nine Schools (Part 2)]
【Experiences in Cultivating the Nine Schools of Kung Fu (Part 1)】
【Experiences in Cultivating the Nine Schools of Kung Fu (Part Two)】
Zhou Zheng clicked to download each one and opened the Nine Schools Core Techniques Collection to view them.
【Autumn Wind Palm Technique (Foundation Establishment Realm Technique)】 (Can be cultivated up to the peak of Foundation Establishment Realm)
[Sighing Technique (Foundation Building Realm Skill)]
【Frost-Descending Fist Technique (Golden Core Realm Technique)】
【The Joy and Sorrow Finger Technique (Golden Core Realm Technique)】
【Nine Provinces Technique (Nascent Soul Internal Cultivation)】
【The Palm of Ten Thousand People (Nascent Soul Realm Technique)】
"Wow, they're really well-off."
You know what, just these five cultivation manuals are enough to establish a cultivation sect.
Upon opening the first page of the collection, a warning line immediately catches the eye.
The leader of the Nine Schools once attempted to combine two Nascent Soul Realm cultivation techniques into a Deity Transformation Realm technique to defy fate. Just as he was about to succeed, we joined forces to seal him away. Those who follow should be extremely cautious when modifying cultivation techniques; improper modifications will lead to utter destruction.
Zhou Zheng was curious. Although the Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, and Nascent Soul cultivation techniques were extremely valuable, it was indeed strange to receive such annotations.
"Let me see what kind of technique it is that deserves such high praise."
Upon opening the Autumn Wind Palm Technique interface, a description of the technique popped up.

[Description: The palm strike is powerful, like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, making it difficult to defend against]
A question mark slowly appeared above Zhou Zheng's head: "A truly all-encompassing martial arts technique?"
Dude, you guys are really not exaggerating at all, you're aiming to be all-rounders?
This technique even requires mastery of music to cultivate one's character, wow.
Zhou Zheng realized the seriousness of the problem and quickly turned to the book "Ten Thousand People's Palm: Nascent Soul Foreign Technique".
