Cultivation Helped by Ancestors-Chapter 307 - 257: Sanctuary (4k)_3

"At every large gathering, there are always strong participants from various Heterodox Sects and even from major Immortal Dao sects!"

Zhao Cheng finished speaking and eagerly looked at Zhang Jian.

His face showed no concealment of his desire to survive.

Zhang Jian pondered slightly, then said after a moment, "Pardoning you is not difficult, but now that both illegitimate offspring are destroyed, how will you explain it to her?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Cheng’s eyes lit up, and he quickly bowed.

"Zhao Cheng pays respects to the Lord. Lord, please rest assured; your subordinate only needs to claim that a high-ranking individual in Dong Shen Temple discovered the trail. Even if the Saintess suspects, she won’t do much to me!"

Seeing this, Zhang Jian shook his head slightly. With a casual grab, he extracted Zhao Cheng’s Yin Spirit, while his flesh body turned into a stream of light collected by Zhang Jian.

"This way, it will seem more realistic!"

Noticing Zhang Jian directly detain his flesh body, Zhao Cheng’s face changed slightly in color.

At this moment, a strong Profound Yin Ghost Qi was circulating around him, his Yin Spirit donned the Profound Yin Celestial Ghost Dharma Aspect, only his form was directly exposed in the Void Dharma Realm, as if constantly suffering the backlash from the Nine Netherworld, coupled with the manifestation of Evil Wind Yin Flame in the void, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.

Zhang Jian, however, cared not how Zhao Cheng felt; with a flick of his finger, another Dharma Ban was integrated deep into Zhao Cheng’s Yin Spirit, taking control of it.

Zhao Cheng sensed a Cyan Lotus emerging deep within his Yin Spirit, and his heart trembled secretly. He felt his life was now at Zhang Jian’s whim.

Seeing this, Zhao Cheng cupped his fists slightly and prepared to leave.

Zhang Jian, with a thought, suddenly called out to him and asked,

"Does your Golden Maiden Sect have a strong figure called Plum Venerable?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Cheng promptly replied, "Lord, yes, Plum Venerable is a Four Tribulation Venerable in our sect. His domain is within Beichu, but if Plum Venerable has offended you, Lord, perhaps I could devise a way to lure him here..."

Zhang Jian waved his hand with a smile.

"No need for that!"

He glanced at Zhao Cheng; this Zhao Cheng seemed sinister and ruthless.

"You may go!"

Various thoughts flashed through his mind as he waved Zhao Cheng off.

Zhao Cheng, eager to leave the heartbroken place beneath his feet, quickly cupped his hands. His Yin Spirit transformed into the body of a Celestial Ghost, tore through the void, and vanished in an instant. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Zhang Jian’s gaze flickered; at this moment, he turned to look behind him.

Just then, a sighing voice emanated from within the pavilion.

"Ah Yu, it seems your magical power has reached a level unimaginable to us common folk!"

Qi Yi stepped out from the pavilion, having witnessed the entire scene just now.

Zhang Jian, seeing this, merely smiled and said,

"Just a little trick!"

His expression did not change; after his Yin Spirit had partially attained the essence of the Pure Yang of the Primordial Spirit, his magical power, divine sense, and the responsiveness of various magic techniques had indeed undergone significant change.

As for the specifics, he wasn’t very clear without a comparison.

But it was strong enough.

But this should not have reached his upper limit before the Primordial Spirit Realm.

He said with a smile,

"Grandfather need not worry; with me protecting Yu Zhu, she can enter the palace without worry!"

Qi Yi, hearing this, expressed some admiration in his eyes and nodded.

"I’ll leave Yu Zhu to you; only you can protect her!"

Zhang Jian nodded slightly in agreement.

"Yu Zhu is Yu Hua’s younger sister, and she is also my family. I naturally will not allow her to be bullied!"

...

In the spring of the fourteenth year of Jingwu, Emperor Jingwu selected Beauties from various counties and met Miss Qi from Fengyang County, was pleased with her, and thereafter personally led the civil and military officials to worship at the Grand Ancestral Temple, appointing Miss Qi as Empress. The world said that another phoenix had emerged from Fengyang County.
