Sharing Tamed Beasts' Talents for Eternal Life
Chapter 39: Joining the Hall of PunishmentChapter 39: Joining the Hall of Punishment
After Zhang Jiusui heard the punishment, his face turned pale and he fell to the ground. He kept looking at Zhang Lingmu, hoping that he could find a way.
However, Zhang Lingmu himself was just a small figure. The member of the Hall of Punishment that he had contacted previously could only stand obediently beside Zheng Xiaoling. They did not dare to move or even look her in the eye.
A feeling of incomparable despair instantly pervaded the air. What kind of place was the Demon Suppression Cave? Once they entered and came out again, they would probably not look like humans anymore.
Demonic energy was rampant inside. If one stayed inside for a long time, it would definitely disturb and pollute the spiritual energy in one's body.
At that time, not to mention the Foundation Establishment Realm, it would be difficult to maintain their own combat strength and lifespan.
"Lady, please don't. I'm just a messenger. I didn't hide anything. I told you everything." Zhang Lingmu immediately put on a long face.
"Why are you questioning my punishment? I'm not going to let you go." Zheng Xiaoling's voice was cold. "Besides, if you've done nothing wrong, your master will naturally let you out when he returns."
Zhang Lingmu lowered his head in fear, not daring to say a word.
Then, he glared at He Qingge and said through gritted teeth, "I'm afraid my master won't be able to return. All of this was done by He Qingge."
A long time had passed. He Qingge had been back for a month, but there was still no news from Zhang Jianchi. It was as if he had disappeared, including the people he had brought with him.
He Qingge burst into laughter. "You old dog, you're really stupid. You bite whoever you catch!"
Even if he did it, he could not admit it now. Moreover, he did not do it at all.
Even if the cultivation world had so many detection methods, it was impossible to detect that it was him.
After all, although Zhang Jianchi died in front of him, he was not the one who killed him. Instead, it was Wan Wan who killed him. He had nothing to do with it.
No matter what, it was impossible to lead it back to him. After all, there was no protective array outside the Tian Xuan Sect.
"Don't worry, the truth will be revealed and you'll die a horrible death. My young master had a special mark left by his ancestors. The person who killed him will definitely have a mark on their body."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZhang Lingmu glared at He Qingge fiercely.
The people of the Zhang family's main branch had a special mark planted by the Zhang family's ancestors on their bodies.
In fact, he wasn't sure if Zhang Jianbing was dead or not. It was obviously abnormal that there was no news for such a long time.
He wanted to save himself now.
If Zhang Jianchi really died outside, he would probably die of old age waiting for him in the Demon Suppression Cave.
In fact, he did not believe that He Qingge could kill Zhang Jianchi. After all, the two of them were too far apart in terms of strength, level, and equipment.
When He Qingge heard this news, he was a little surprised, but also a little glad that he did not kill him.
"You're stupid and you don't know it. I don't know the strength of your young master, but for you to address him as 'Young Master,' his strength should be stronger than yours.
"I'm only at the fifth level of the Qi Refinement Realm, and I can't even resist your pressure. How exactly did I kill your young master?"
He Qingge mocked calmly.
"Anyway, even if it's not you, it has something to do with you." Zhang Lingmu bit him to death.
No matter what, he definitely did not want to enter the Demon Suppression Cave.
Zheng Xiaoling used her spiritual energy to carefully examine He Qingge's body. She would be able to sense if he was hiding his cultivation and how strong he was.
After checking, she said impatiently, "Alright, escort the old thing."
She did not believe that He Qingge could kill someone at the peak of the Qi Refinement Realm.
If she believed it, it would simply be an insult to her intelligence.
Moreover, if He Qingge really did kill him, it would be the Zhang family's own business if he had a mark on his body.
"Thank you for discerning right from wrong." He Qingge thanked her repeatedly.
Zheng Xiaoling's eyes moved slightly. "Do you want to work in the Hall of Punishment?"
He Qingge was a little surprised and suspected that he had misheard.
The authority of the Hall of Punishment was very great, and the benefits were also quite good. Most importantly, the threshold to enter was very high.
His level-five strength was simply not up to standard.
Those who wanted to enter the Hall of Punishment were usually at the peak of the Qi Refinement Realm. Their strength and talent were not ordinary. They had to be below the age of 30.
"I'm afraid my strength and talent are not enough!" He Qingge knew his own limits.
"It's fine. You'll follow me from now on." Zheng Xiaoling did not care at all.
"Miss, this is against the sect's rules." At this moment, an old man in a black robe reminded her.
Zheng Xiaoling did not care. "How is it breaking the rules of the sect? Show me the rules, then. If I say it's okay, then it's okay."
He Qingge immediately felt that this person had a great background.
At the same time, this was an example of double standards!
However, so what if the people from the Hall of Punishment had double standards?
Who said that the referee could not play the game?
He Qingge was about to agree, but sharp killing intent was coming straight at him.
Was it that obvious?
He Qingge turned around and saw a pale-faced man following behind Zheng Xiaoling.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe Qingge's eyes flashed slightly, and his body instantly stiffened and trembled as if his body was under great pressure.
Zheng Xiaoling was a little suspicious. She followed He Qingge's gaze and immediately realized that something was wrong.
The pale-faced man, Zhao Liangzhe, instantly retracted his killing intent.
"Hmph!" Zheng Xiaoling snorted and said, "Report here tomorrow."
"Who should I look for here? I'm afraid that they won't let me in. After all, I'm only at the fifth level of Qi Refinement." He Qingge smiled bitterly.
"That's true. This is my token for you." Zheng Xiaoling nodded and took out a token from her waist.
He Qingge took it happily. Had he found a powerful backer now?
However, Zhao Liangzhe's eyes flashed with a trace of displeasure and disdain as he gritted his teeth.
He Qingge pretended that he did not see anything. A person who did not even know how to hide his expression would be killed by others in the future.
After returning from the Hall of Punishment, He Qingge began to prepare for the selection of the legacy disciples of the Imperial Beast Peak.
Su Zimei only told him that everything had to be done three times, but she did not tell him the method of selection.
If he did not make some preparations, he would feel uneasy.
He found a level-one flying sword from his many spoils of war and prepared to refine it.
There were too many spoils of war this time, and they had not been dealt with yet.
He did not have the necessary things for the time being. He had obtained a lot of spirit coins, and he did not need to deal with them in advance to exchange for resources.
He Qingge took out a level-one top-grade magic sword and refined it.
It was not something that someone of his strength should have. It was very easy for others to covet it.
The problem was that the selection test this time relied on opportunity and luck.
To obtain a level-one top-grade magic tool with such strength, did it not show that He Qingge's luck was extraordinary?
When the opportunity came, he had to grab it.
The sect mission had caused a small change in his mentality. He knew that he could not continue to live in seclusion. After all, he did not have the talent to live forever, so he did not have the right to continue living in seclusion.
