The night was hazy, and the bustling Shen family finally quieted down.
The Independent Martial Artists who came to visit the Shen Family left in twos and threes. Only the patrolling guards with torches were still dutifully patrolling the yard.
After midnight, a figure quietly came to the Shen Family's wall.
The man looked around vigilantly. After making sure there was no one around, he jumped over the wall and landed in the yard.
.....
In the yard, Shen Lang, who was cultivating in his room, suddenly opened his eyes when the man entered the yard.
The corners of Shen Lang's mouth curled up as he pushed the door open and walked out.
Just as he walked out, the Enchanted Moon also opened the door and walked out.
Shen Lang sat down at the stone table and said lightly.
"You go and bring him back."
After saying that, the Enchanted Moon disappeared. At this time, Gao Jianli and Kim No-myung heard the noise and walked out of the room.
They didn't say anything. They just stood quietly behind Shen Lang with their swords in their arms.
.....
The figure walked all the way to the Shen Family's Hidden Scriptures Pavilion.
"Who is it?"
The guards in front of the Hidden Scriptures Pavilion suddenly saw a figure flash by. Then, they held the hilt of their swords and shouted in surprise.
Bang! Bang!
Before the two guards could react, they were knocked out by the man.
Since Shen Kun's death, the Shen Family's Hidden Scriptures Pavilion had been guarded by Shen Kun himself.
However, after Shen Kun went missing in the battle with the three big families, the Shen Family seriously lacked masters. Hence, the Hidden Scriptures Pavilion had been unguarded. It wasn't that Shen Wuming didn't send people to guard it, but that the Shen Family didn't have suitable people to guard it.
It was impossible for Shen Lang to go. Shen Teng was not strong enough, and he was the head of the Shen Family. How could he have the time to guard the Sutra Depository Pavilion? As for the other Innate Masters, they were all rogue warriors who had recently joined the Shen Family. Shen Wuming was not assured to let them guard the Sutra Depository Pavilion. Therefore, he had not thought of a good solution, and could only delay it.
After knocking out the two guards, that person's figure flashed and entered the Scripture Pavilion.
That person did not even look at the ordinary martial arts manuals on the first floor of the Hidden Scriptures Pavilion and went straight to the third floor.
There was only one book on the third floor. It was the Shen Family's most powerful technique. "True Dragon Technique."
The True Dragon Secret Art was an incomplete Body Transformation Cultivation Method. Although it was incomplete, it had reached the Profound Level.
If the incomplete True Dragon Secret Art could reach the Profound Level, then what level would the complete version be? Earth Grade? Heaven Rank?
However, no one could answer these questions. Even Shen Kun, who had obtained this Cultivation Method, could not answer. Shen Wuming had also asked Shen Kun where he obtained this Cultivation Method.
However, Shen Kun was ambiguous and did not explain clearly. Therefore, until now, no one in the Shen Family knew the exact information of the True Dragon Secret Art.
Shen Lang had also studied the True Dragon Secret Art. However, after studying it, Shen Lang gave up. The True Dragon Secret Art was of little value to Shen Lang.
The True Dragon Secret Art did not have an Internal Force chapter. It only had a Body Transformation chapter. Shen Lang's Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms and Dragon Elephant Secret Art were both Body Transformation Divine Arts. They were much more advanced than the True Dragon Secret Art. Therefore, it was useless to cultivate the True Dragon Secret Art.
However, Shen Lang was more interested in the complete version of the True Dragon Secret Art. However, because of Shen Kun's disappearance, the clues of the True Dragon Secret Art were also cut off. Shen Lang did not know where to find it.
Although the True Dragon Secret Art only had a Body Transformation chapter, it was a genuine Profound Level Cultivation Method. Shen Wuming and Shen Lang both agreed that the complete version of the True Dragon Secret Art might be a Heaven Level Cultivation Method.
The man went all the way to the third floor. When he saw the True Dragon Secret Art on a stone platform in the middle of the hall, the man's breathing could not help but become rough.
"True Dragon Secret Art, you are mine."
"This Shen Family is really a waste of resources. Such a powerful Cultivation Method, and they actually hid it. If it was given to the family's children to cultivate, I am afraid that they would have already become a first-class family."
The man rubbed his hands and excitedly walked towards the True Dragon Secret Art.
Just as the man came to the stone platform and was about to pick up the True Dragon Secret Art, he suddenly stopped. A drop of cold sweat from his forehead slid down his cheek.
"Gulp!"
The man swallowed a mouthful of saliva fiercely.
Unknowingly, a slender figure dressed in white stood quietly in front of the window on the third floor of the Hidden Scriptures Pavilion.
The figure in white seemed to have been standing there since ancient times. She looked out of the window at the Bright Moon hanging in the sky.
Huff! Huff!
His breathing became heavier and heavier. At this moment, he did not dare to move at all. His whole body seemed to be frozen. Finally, he turned his head with difficulty and looked at the figure in white.
"Let's go. The Young Master wants to see you."
The Enchanted Moon said lightly. Her voice was cold and emotionless.
"I … I don't …"
"Puff!"
Before the man could finish his words, he spat out a mouthful of blood and hit a wall.
At this moment, the commotion in the Hidden Scriptures Pavilion finally attracted attention. A group of Shen Family guards holding torches surrounded the Hidden Scriptures Pavilion.
Three middle-aged men with cold faces and powerful auras walked out from the group of guards.
The three of them were Innate Experts who had been recruited by the Shen Family.
Originally, the three of them had the intention to join the Shen Family. Shen Wuming threw out an olive branch and the three of them nodded in agreement.
The Shen Family's current strength was even stronger than when Shen Kun was still around. However, they were all outsiders. Shen Wuming did not trust them so much.
Those Innate Experts also knew that Shen Wuming did not fully trust them. After all, the Shen Family was a family force. No matter how strong they were or how well they performed, Shen Wuming would not fully trust them.
However, they were not dissatisfied at all. The Shen Family had treated them well. They would not bite the hand that fed them. Of course, the pressure on them was still Shen Lang.
Why was the Shen Family loved by so many people? Why was the Shen Family so high-profile and generous? Why was no one spying on them? It was all because of Shen Lang.
As everyone knew, Shen Lang had many masters under his command. He was also abnormally strong. Who would be so free to seek death? After all, there were still many smart people.
Of course, there were also many stupid people. For example, the person in the Enchanted Moon's hand.
That person was a middle-aged man. He was thin and weak. His face was dispirited. He was carried by the Enchanted Moon with one hand and walked out of the Hidden Scriptures Pavilion.
Seeing the Enchanted Moon, the three Innate Experts of the Shen Family suddenly narrowed their eyes. They immediately cupped their fists respectfully and said, "Greetings, Lord Enchanted Moon."
"Well, I have solved the problem here. Be more vigilant in the future. How could such a person sneak into the Hidden Scriptures Pavilion? Don't you feel ashamed?"
The Enchanted Moon glanced at the three people indifferently and turned to leave.
"Yes! Lord Enchanted Moon. "
The three of them could not help but smile bitterly as they replied in unison. The Enchanted Moon's identity had long been made public in the Shen Family. She was a Void Transformation Stage expert and Shen Lang's number one fighter. When she had just debuted, she had relied on her own strength to fight with the Jiang Province Commander and the Star Pavilion Elder.
From this, it could be seen how powerful and terrifying the Enchanted Moon was.
In fact, this matter could not be blamed on them. The martial arts of the person who stole the secret manual was not weaker than theirs. He was a late stage Innate Stage expert. If the three of them were not within a certain range of that person, they would not have been able to discover him.
The Hidden Scriptures Pavilion was originally a forbidden area. Because of their identities, the three of them only lived outside the Shen Family, so they were definitely far away from that person. In addition, that person's martial arts were not weaker than theirs, so it was not a dereliction of duty for them not to discover him.
Of course, if the Enchanted Moon said that they had failed in their duties, then they had failed in their duties. They did not dare to refute.
