CHAPTER 504: CHAPTER 501 MIGRATION

But this does not mean that he has killed half of the Evil Sect disciples.

It is evident from the Silver Venerable Statue that each Venerable Statue has a limited capacity.

The number of Evil Sect disciples it can connect to is restricted.

The Black Venerable Statue cannot connect all disciples, and it is estimated that the Silver Venerable Statue cannot either.

Therefore, the Venerable Statue he obtained cannot connect to all Evil Sect disciples.

However, when he finds some Evil Sect disciples through the Venerable Statue, there are often other Evil Sect disciples nearby, so he resolves them conveniently.

Even though he’s killed so many, there are still more Evil Sect disciples left.

He speculates that there are definitely more than ten thousand.

Tens of thousands of Evil Sect disciples, how many innocent people have they killed?

Almost every Evil Sect disciple has a human life on their hands, from a few to a few hundred, and even up to a thousand for a Great Grandmaster.

Tens of thousands of Evil Sect disciples, how many lives have they swallowed?

Thinking of this astronomical number, he feels a murderous intent skyrocketing.

This reflects the negligent management by the Court.

Even if those who died were often in poor rural areas, isolated places, and even if this was the accumulation of a hundred years, each year would still have tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands.

Although Da Jing’s territory and population far surpass his previous life, this is still an extremely shocking number.

If the Court knew this number, how could they remain so indifferent to the Evil Sect?

If, as said in Li Hongzhao’s letter, the Evil Sect’s lair is not within this dynasty, it would be even more troublesome.

If all the Evil Sect disciples here are killed, yet their lair is elsewhere, the entire nest cannot be eradicated.

There will continuously be Evil Sect disciples coming over, an endless kill.

Completely eliminating them requires the cooperation of three dynasties, acting together.

To achieve this, it depends first on the peace talks among the three dynasties.

He decides to suggest to the Court to add this point into the peace talks.

...

"Senior Sister? Senior Sister?" The voice of Shen Hanyue sounded outside the courtyard.

"Come in."

Shen Hanyue pushed the door open and came in, dressed in a white satin combat uniform, looking valiant and spirited.

Seeing Xiao Ruoling, Shen Hanyue said, "Finally awake."

Xiao Ruoling felt a bit embarrassed, "Already finished practicing?"

"Haha, I have progressed another layer in the First Layer Heaven." Shen Hanyue said triumphantly, "It happened just last night."

"That’s impressive." Xiao Ruoling said with a smile.

The progress in the Taiyin Great Refining Form is exceptionally fast, being a method of quick achievements.

If it weren’t for Chu Zhiyuan’s example, they would find the Taiyin Great Refining Form suspiciously fast, almost absurdly so.

Now it’s no longer considered strange.

Shen Hanyue glanced at Chu Zhiyuan, "It’s also thanks to the Princely Heir’s contribution."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled, "What contribution do I have?"

Shen Hanyue said, "Your moon phase accuracy, it’s much more precise than ours!"

Accurate moon phase practice truly makes a difference, especially when moon phase accuracy is consecutive, it’s like a snowball effect.

When they were training at Yao Yue Palace, they couldn’t determine the moon phase accurately, sometimes right today, wrong tomorrow, or wrong today, right tomorrow.

It was difficult to consistently judge correctly.

Even so, their cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds.

But after coming, three consecutive days of accurate moon phase, they felt different.

The Gang Qi increased like a snowball, and the speed of progress amazed them.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled, "It’s just a small effort, not worth claiming credit."

"This is not just a small effort." Shen Hanyue blinked her bright eyes and laughed, "Princely Heir, can you help us?"

"What help?"

"Can you help us determine the moon phase every day?"

"Junior Sister!" Xiao Ruoling scolded.

"Senior Sister—, with accurate moon phases, we can progress rapidly, and maybe soon, we can achieve Great Grandmaster, able to help rather than drag behind, right?"

"...Not that fast."

"Senior Sister, I believe it will be very fast, as long as we get the moon phase right, it will be very, very, very fast."

"I’ll help with this request." Chu Zhiyuan agreed readily.

Xiao Ruoling gave him an embarrassed look.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled, "No need for formalities with me, Zou Fang, help me remember this task."

"Yes." Zou Fang replied from the shadows.

"Thank you, Princely Heir." Shen Hanyue said sweetly.

Chu Zhiyuan waved his hand.

Shen Hanyue hummed, "This time, I must outshine Xu Yingying."

Xiao Ruoling showed a look of helplessness.

The two seem naturally destined to be rivals, quarreling whenever they meet.

Even when they don’t meet, they secretly compete.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled, "Yingying has extremely good luck, trying to surpass her is not easy."

Xu Yingying is about to achieve Grandmaster Perfection, while Shen Hanyue and the others are still a bit behind.

Shen Hanyue huffed, "She may have good luck, but our luck isn’t bad either. As long as you help us and not side with her, I’ll definitely reach Great Grandmaster first."

Chu Zhiyuan laughed helplessly.

This Shen Hanyue was expressing herself.

He indeed would help Xu Yingying with her enlightenment.

Each layer of her mental method required him to explore the operational route, relying more on the Miao Ling Pearl.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled, "Let’s call it even then."

Shen Hanyue pouted helplessly.

"Sister Xiao, I’m here!" Xu Yingying’s crisp and joyful voice rang from outside.

Xiao Ruoling looked at Chu Zhiyuan with a smile, raising her voice, "Come in, Yingying."

Xu Yingying pushed the door open, saw that Chu Zhiyuan was also there, greeted him with a smile, then said to Shen Hanyue, "Junior Sister Shen, I’ve achieved Grandmaster Perfection!"

Shen Hanyue snorted, "Very good, but there’s no need to rush, whoever reaches Great Grandmaster first is the winner."

Xu Yingying looked at Chu Zhiyuan.

Chu Zhiyuan waved his hand with a smile, "Were there any Evil Sect experts nearby last night?"

Xu Yingying confidently smiled, "They dare not provoke us."

Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

The Evil Sect experts indeed dare not provoke the Jiuli Divine Sect; in their eyes, the Jiuli Divine Sect is more troublesome than Yao Yue Palace.

Despite Yao Yue Palace killing more Evil Sect disciples, it is ultimately a female sect, with a slightly lesser intimidating presence.

Chu Zhiyuan listened to their casual conversation, gradually focusing his mind, observing his body’s interior.

With advancement in the Bright Moon Saber God, the power of the two small Sword Gangs increased, enhancing their destructive power against the Golden Tower.

The Golden Tower emitted more and stronger golden light, further activating the body.

He could clearly feel this body becoming younger, full of vitality.

This was somewhat like a return to youth.

Appearance could not revert to that of a child, but the body’s state was shifting towards that of adolescence, brimming with growth vigor.

At this stage, the deeper the practice, the more solid the foundation.

Ten fingers and ten toes gradually showed mysterious patterns in the Dragon Transformation Technique’s operation, faintly appearing.

These patterns increased the strength of his fingers and toes.

As they strengthened, they propelled the entire body’s strength to grow stronger.

The body became increasingly light, as if a light step could launch him into the sky, never to return.

——

Outside the Purple Sun Villa, three more White Bone Towers were erected, all piled with the corpses of Evil Sect monsters.

This news spread wildly again, attracting more people to head to the outside of the Purple Sun Villa to view the Bone Towers.

It has become a tourist attraction.

Many with weak hearts, afraid to look, were inevitably drawn in, having to muster the courage to look as well.

...

That evening, Chu Zhiyuan returned to the Prince Qing Mansion, where the family gathered for dinner.

"Yuan’er, the Court intends to move you to another position." Chu Minghou said.

"To where?"

"Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs."

"Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs?!" Chu Zhiyuan said, "Father, I’m doing well in the Ministry of Rites, why shift to the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs?"

Chu Yi’s eyes lit up immediately, eagerly saying, "Eldest Brother, the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs is far beyond comparison with the Ministry of Rites, it’s a promotion, right?"

She turned to ask, "Father, what position is Eldest Brother in?"

"Still the Left Vice Minister." Chu Minghou said.

Chu Yi smiled, "That’s still a promotion then."

Chu Zhiyuan frowned in thought.

Chu Yi said, "The Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs manages all official promotions... This is the Imperial Grandfather letting you get acquainted with these officials in advance, so that you won’t be completely in the dark when you ascend the throne."

"Little Sister!" Chu Zhiyuan glared at her in exasperation.
