This Martial Saint's Health Bar is Too Thick!-Chapter 567 - 77: All the Talents of the World Come Under My Chariot

Chapter 567: Chapter 77: All the Talents of the World Come Under My Chariot

Daluo Sect.

Yun Shu had ended his secluded recovery, initially stabilizing his severe injuries.

In his battle with Qingxu True Monarch, not only had he suffered heavy injuries, but his Lifebound Magical Treasure was also severely damaged. This was not something that could be recovered in a short period of time.

Without utilizing a massive amount of resources, recovery was nearly impossible!

Therefore, Yun Shu had only spent three days in seclusion to prevent his injuries from deteriorating before ending his retreat to start dealing with affairs.

"State Preceptor, these are the reports from the past few days."

A disciple of the Daluo Sect handed Yun Shu several papers.

Before secluding himself, Yun Shu had ordered the court’s various forces to intercept the traitors who had fled from the Daluo Sect. These papers detailed the interception attempts over the last three days.

Just three days. Yun Shu did not expect any significant results; after all, the fleeing traitors were either True Masters or Martial Arts Masters, not so easily killed.

"Hmm?"

Yun Shu suddenly spotted a piece of surprising intelligence, "Qing Yu True Master is dead?"

"Yes, it happened this afternoon. Qing Xie, Uncle Master, caught up with Qing Yu True Master and killed him with his own hands."

The disciple of the Daluo Sect reported.

"Qing Yu..."

Yun Shu recalled that the other was a Sword Cultivator, whose Lifebound Flying Sword possessed the Divine Skill to freeze an opponent’s heart and mind. If one could not resolve the conflict swiftly, they would become increasingly affected.

Such a True Master, although previously wounded, still possessed lethal power. Even if confronted by the Imperial Camp Cavalry, he could use his sword to affect the hearts and minds of hundreds of soldiers simultaneously, weakening the power of their Military Formation, and was extremely difficult to kill.

And yet, he had died so quickly?

"Has Qing Xie returned?"

Yun Shu asked coldly.

He suspected there might be foul play, perhaps Qing Xie had fabricated Qing Yu True Master’s death, secretly allowing his escape.

"Uncle Master Qing Xie is on his way back."

"As soon as he returns, have him see me immediately."

"Yes."

With a wave of his hand, Yun Shu dismissed the Daluo disciple beside him.

The last piece of intelligence in his hand was about Li Fei and others.

They were tasked with intercepting Qing Yu True Master, had previously encountered an assassination attempt by the ’Twelve Xiao’ and were now heavily injured, heading for the Daluo Sect.

Yun Shu noted that Li Fei had taken people to intercept Qing Yu True Master and had managed to repel him, which made him suspect some trickery.

He did not consider that Qing Yu True Master’s death was related to Li Fei, nor did he believe that Li Fei with a few Martial Artists at the Tao Foundation Stage could force Qing Yu True Master to retreat.

He simply regarded it as Li Fei deliberately overstating his achievements.

Yun Shu did not mind this, after all, Li Fei had indeed accomplished a great feat this time, and these small issues were not worth pursuing.

...

The following day at noon, Li Fei, along with Lv Wenxing and others, returned to Daluo Sect.

This time, without Qing Xia True Master leading the way, they climbed up to Daluo Peak under the guidance of two Daluo Sect disciples and met Yun Shu.

The image of the State Preceptor had drastically changed!

Previously, he always appeared as a young Taoist, albeit with a weathered demeanor.

Now, he looked at least twenty years older, with visible white hairs at his temples!

This added to Yun Shu’s already weathered appearance.

"Greetings to the State Preceptor, Li Fei has returned to report."

Upon seeing Yun Shu, Li Fei did not show any unusual expressions and promptly saluted Yun Shu.

Yun Shu nodded in satisfaction:

"You’ve worked hard, you did very well this time. After you return, I will personally ask for rewards from His Majesty."

Hearing this, Lv Wenxing and the others were inwardly thrilled, knowing that their contributions for this mission were now firmly acknowledged, and they would be substantial!

"Thank you, State Preceptor."

Li Fei saluted again, then reported the affair of executing the ’Twelve Xiao’, and had Lv Wenxing and others present the heads of the twelve core members.

Yun Shu, seeing these twelve heads, was somewhat surprised.

The intelligence only mentioned Li Fei and his encounter with the ’Twelve Xiao’s’ assassination attempt but did not say that Li Fei had eradicated the assassin team.

"This assassin team has been committing misdeeds for years, and your extermination of them is another great achievement."

Yun Shu looked at Li Fei, "I will have Zhi Ge Pavilion investigate who dared to hire someone to assassinate an Imperial Envoy. Rest assured, as long as there is a result, His Majesty will definitely not condone!"

"Yes."

Li Fei nodded.

In fact, he knew very well that this matter would not yield results.

Yun Shu thought for a bit and then said:

"Additionally, the rebel Qing Yu has been executed. Your interception is commendable; I will also report this to His Majesty."

Even though he did not believe Li Fei really led the interception of Qing Yu True Master, since the man was already dead, he might as well grant Li Fei this credit as a form of appeasement.

Li Fei did not find this surprising.

With Qing Yu True Master’s Lifebound Flying Sword severely damaged, pursuit by that Martial Arts Master would almost certainly be disastrous.

"Thank you, State Preceptor." freeweɓnovel-cøm

Once again, Li Fei saluted.

His sense of entitlement somewhat surprised Yun Shu.

The young people of today, they are so thick-skinned?

...

Two days later, Martial Arts Master Qing Xie returned to Daluo Sect with the body of Qing Yu True Master and his Lifebound Flying Sword.

After confirming that both the body and the Flying Sword were authentic, Yun Shu was very surprised and asked Qing Xie how he managed to kill Qing Yu.

"When I caught up with Qing Yu, he was in bad shape; it seemed he had been held up by the court’s forces first and fought a big battle."

Qing Xie explained.

"Held up by the court’s forces first?"

Yun Shu immediately thought of Li Fei.

Could it be that Qing Yu had been injured by Li Fei and his party? Had Li Fei truly repelled him?!

Yun Shu then recalled the night Li Fei had successfully harnessed the Emperor’s Dragon Qi and defeated the invading Imperial Camp Cavalry.

Speaking of the inconceivable, it was already incredibly improbable that Li Fei, at his current Realm, had successfully harnessed the Emperor’s Dragon Qi!
