Chapter 398

"I want to become such a powerful man in the future …" Xu Qi 'an envied him and cupped his hands.

"Last night, the Jinlian Taoist priest of the Earth Sect came to me. He didn't hurt me or take back the Earth Book. Instead, he invited me to join the Heaven & Earth Society. "

"The Heaven & Earth Society …" Wei Yuan turned around and walked into the tea room.

"The founder of the Heaven & Earth Society is the Jinlian Taoist priest of the Earth Sect and the people of the Earth Sect behind him," Xu Qi 'an saw that Wei Yuan was listening attentively and knew that his information was very valuable.

"There are nine core members of the Heaven & Earth Society. They are also the holders of the fragments of the Earth Book. They use the serial numbers of the fragments as their code names and don't use their real names." Xu Qi 'an briefly told him about their conversation last night.

"So far, we only know that No.1 is in the capital city and has a strong backing. No.2 is in Yunzhou and is interested in suppressing bandits and is suspected to be from the imperial court."

The white-haired eunuch pondered for a long time and asked, "We don't know each other's identities … What else did Jinlian say to you?"

Xu Qi 'an answered honestly, "He said that there is something wrong with the Earth Sect and he wants to clean it up, so he established the Heaven & Earth Society."

At this point, he saw that the eunuch's eyes suddenly lit up and stared at him. The eunuch's mellow voice sounded solemn.

"Tell me in detail."

"The Taoist Master of the Earth Sect was possessed by the devil, which affected almost all the people of the Earth Sect. Only a few of them stayed sober and escaped the sect. That's because of the protection of the Earth Book. "Xu Qi 'an completely sold out the Jinlian Taoist priest.

"So he established the Heaven & Earth Society and gave the fragments of the Earth Book to the favored ones scattered around the world. He supported them so that they could help him clean up the sect in the future."

The Taoist Master was possessed by the devil? Did the Purple Lotus become evil? Wei Yuan's elegant and handsome face was expressionless. He asked in a testing tone, "Why do you think Jinlian told you this?"

Xu Qi 'an was about to say that he didn't know, but he saw Wei Yuan's deep gaze and heard the testing tone in his tone. He swallowed his words.

Wei Yuan was so astute that he definitely wasn't looking for an answer from me … He was trying to test me.

Err … If I had blurted out 'I don't know' just now, would I have become an unintelligent subordinate in the eyes of this great eunuch?

Xu Qi 'an's brain suddenly became active, and his expression was quite relaxed as he smiled.

"All of a sudden, all of a sudden, the Jinlian Taoist priest told me, all the members of the Society. Daoist Golden Lotus is telling me the truth to show his sincerity. "

Jinlian Taoist priest told me the truth to show his sincerity. "Wei Yuan nodded slightly." The Earth Sect is very secretive. The night watchman still doesn't know about the Merit Possessed by the devil. "

Xu Qi 'an's eyes widened. "Duke Wei means that Jinlian Taoist priest wants to use me as a medium to secretly form an alliance with you?"

Wei Yuan nodded in satisfaction. He didn't answer but said gently, "From now on, you will be the night watchman's spy in the Heaven & Earth Society. You will be responsible for finding out the true identity of other members. When necessary, the yamen will provide you with some help. "

Xu Qi 'an cupped his fists and answered, "Yes."

If I had been a little slow, would Duke Wei have taken back the fragments of the Earth Book and replaced me with a smart subordinate to infiltrate the Heaven & Earth Society as a snitch?

The probing of a big shot is like a breeze. If I'm not careful, I might make a mistake …

Wei Yuan said, "You are already in the Qi Cultivation State. It's time for you to practice the supreme art. Go to the Sutras Depository and pick one.

"Are you used to using a saber or a sword?"

"Saber!" Xu Qi 'an answered.

When he was still a petty official, he carried a podao with him. Although he rarely used it, he had carried it with him for many years. His affinity with the saber was much stronger than the sword.

Wei Yuan reminded him, "When choosing the supreme art, remember to choose a simple and pure saber technique. Don't choose anything that is too complicated or fancy.

"Martial artists are different from other systems. They don't have too many mysteries, only strange strength. Therefore, the purer the martial artist, the better. In the future, when you step into the higher ranks, you will understand this principle. "

A few simple words were worth more than a thousand gold coins. Xu Qi 'an was overjoyed. "Thank you, Duke Wei, for your guidance."

Backing a big organization was just the beginning. If he could gain Wei Yuan's appreciation and recognition, his career and martial arts would benefit greatly.

The Celestial Commissioner only accepted children, not children. The Confucian school doesn't suit me. Moreover, the former two are not from the Warrior system. If he wanted to walk the path of martial arts, he could only rely on the night watchman's yamen.

…

Holding Wei Yuan's handwritten letter, Xu Qi 'an arrived at the Sutra Library. Li Yuchun accompanied him.

Li Yuchun looked at the official who led the way and said meaningfully, "When did you start hugging Duke Wei's thick thigh?"

"Duke Wei summoned me." Xu Qi 'an looked innocent.

Li Yuchun nodded slightly. He was not displeased and did not ask further.

Duke Wei had personally evaluated Xu Qi 'an's A + aptitude. It was normal that he wanted to nurture Xu Qi' an.

Li Yuchun already knew this. He did not feel dissatisfied or jealous that his subordinates bypassed him to curry favor with the higher-ups.

First of all, it was inevitable that Duke Wei would pay attention to someone with A + aptitude. Secondly, Xu Qi 'an was the gong under his command.

With the help of Xu Qi 'an, he wished that Xu Qi' an could go as high as possible.

The official brought them to a bookshelf and said, "There are a total of 407 saber manuals. They're all here."

After Xu Qi 'an and Xu Qi' an nodded, he retreated.

Li Yuchun looked at Xu Qi 'an and said with a smile before he could speak, "Are you going to ask me which saber technique is the strongest?"

Xu Qi 'an chuckled.

Li Yuchun said after some consideration, "There are two kinds of absolute arts. One is technique, and the other is dao. Don't even think about the latter. The former has no strong or weak. It only depends on the person. "

The two slowly began to choose saber manuals. Xu Qi 'an remembered Wei Yuan's warning and did not choose those fancy saber techniques.

Two hours later, Li Yuchun was a little impatient. "Nothing satisfactory?"

… Boss, I forgot to tell you that I have a phobia of choice! Xu Qi 'an smiled bitterly and nodded.

Li Yuchun thought for a while. "Wait for me."

He summoned the official and asked, "Are there any new absolute arts in the library recently? I'm talking about saber manuals."

The official pondered for a while and said, "Yes, the Celestial Commissioner sent a few absolute arts a few days ago. They were exchanged for a few thousand taels of silver."

A few thousand taels of silver … Li Yuchun was stunned. Then, he smiled. "Xu Ningyan, you're in luck."

He explained, "Absolute arts worth a few thousand taels of silver are better than the ones in the library. I'm guessing it's a remnant of a certain saber technique."

"Dao?" Xu Qi 'an's eyes lit up.

"Absolute arts with Dao are usually created by high-ranked martial artists. They contain their lifetime of martial arts understanding. "If you want to become a high-ranked Warrior, you can't touch this kind of absolute art because it's their dao. But you can learn the remnant. "Li Yuchun ordered the official.

"Go and find it."

After a while, the official came with a few absolute arts. One of them was an incomplete saber technique.

Heaven and Earth Single Slash.

The person who came up with this name was either delusional or paranoid … Xu Qi 'an made a judgment in his heart. He flipped open the thin book and read the preface.

"There's nothing in this world that can't be cut in half with one slash. If there is, my advice is to run."

Xu Qi 'an resisted the urge to throw the absolute art book away. He patiently flipped to the second page.

After reading the program carefully, he changed his view of this absolute art.

He was right. The expert who wrote this book was paranoid. He believed that everything in this world could be cut in half with one slash, including heaven and earth.

It was the same for enemies.

Any extra moves and attacks were a humiliation to the martial way.

'I'll only use one slash. It's either you die or I die.' Of course, being paranoid did not mean that one had lost his mind. The program mentioned that when encountering an undefeatable opponent, the advice was to run.

Xu Qi 'an finished reading the program quietly and rewrote the preface of this absolute art in his heart.' Focus on one point, reach the peak! '

He closed the booklet and his eyes lit up. "I want it."
