Nine Bright Province, Egret County.
Lu Ning wore a black robe that covered his entire body. He walked slowly along the empty river. He walked along the willow trees, and soon arrived at the door of an old mansion with an exquisite plaque hanging from it.
The black robe on his body was clearly much bigger than the average person. Lu Ning was only seven years old, but the black robe on his body seemed to be supported by something. It raised his body to the height of an adult, and he wore a white mask on his face.
In an instant, he looked like a mysterious man who wandered the world.
"Mingxuan Lane. This is it." The old man's voice rang in Lu Ning's mind.
"Master, what should we do next?" Lu Ning asked honestly.
"Don't do anything after this. Just leave everything to me, just like before."
"Alright."
Lu Ning lifted his head and looked at the entire manor. The manor was shaped like a windmill that was laid flat on the ground.
He pushed the door open slowly and walked in. Two shop assistants quickly came up to him. They skillfully asked him to look at the various plasters and medicinal powders in the shop.
"Is there a problem? This Zhong Ruhuo looks like an ordinary apothecary. There's nothing out of the ordinary. "
On the right side of the pharmacy was a slightly smaller three-story restaurant. On the third floor, a few men and women dressed in white were standing in front of a huge full-length mirror. They were quietly looking at everything in the mirror.
"This is Zhong Ruhuo? To confirm that he's Lu Ning, we must be prepared to test him, "said a tall man who wore half a silver mask.
"What are the details of the test? He's the young master of the Prime Devil Sect. We must be mindful of our image, "the other woman asked gently.
"How about Cold Corruption Poison?"
"Spirit Poison? Sure. Release the test subjects. "
"Alright. Let's try releasing two. "
Soon, Lu Ning walked out of the mansion. He seemed to have gained a lot. After he left the shop, he walked straight out of the city.
However, on his way there, two pitiful little girls suddenly fell unconscious on the ground. This attracted the attention of many people around them.
Lu Ning noticed this as well. He paused for a moment, but he still went over to check on them.
Soon, he recognized the type of poison on the twin girls.
"Why would this kind of poison appear in a place like this?" The old man's confused voice echoed in Lu Ning's mind.
"What do you think? Do you need help? "Lu Ning was a kind-hearted child. He couldn't bear to see a child of his age suffer.
"Do you want to help them? These two little girls have rare rootless constitutions and are very compatible with your cultivation method. If you can nurture them, they will be of great help to your future development. "The old man said lightly.
"Then let's help them," Lu Ning decided.
He quickly walked to the side of the twin girls and asked if there were any family members around. After learning that there weren't any, and seeing the tattered clothes on the little girls, he immediately knew that the two of them were ordinary street children who lived nearby.
After the Evil Spirit had wreaked havoc, it had caused the destruction of too many families. The two little girls' situation was all too common.
"Take the medicine." Lu Ning revealed a finger with a black glove under his black robe. With a light flick of his finger, two small red beads flew out and accurately bounced into the two little girls' mouths.
Strangely enough, after the small pills entered their mouths, the two girls quickly woke up in less than a dozen breaths.
"Thank you for saving us, Young Master!"
After a round of thanks, the two girls followed behind Lu Ning and successfully snuck into his side.
"It's done."
On the third floor of the restaurant, a few people in white smiled.
…
Lu Ning had just returned to his original size and was summoned home when a servant came to summon him.
"Young Master Ning, the Old Master wants to see you."
"Is Daddy back?" Lu Ning was overjoyed. He ran out of the bedroom and passed through the small garden. Soon, he saw Lu Sheng playing chess in the Chess Pavilion in the Lu Mansion.
"Daddy." Lu Ning shouted and ran over. He threw himself into Lu Sheng's arms.
"Mmm, good boy." Lu Sheng smiled and hugged his son, motioning for the chess player to leave first. The servants around him also left. Soon, only the father and son were left within a few hundred meters of them.
"Ning Ning, Daddy wants to ask you something. You must answer truthfully, okay?" Lu Sheng calmly pulled Lu Ning out of his arms and asked seriously.
"Ask away, Daddy. Ning Ning will definitely answer." Lu Ning quickly nodded.
Lu Sheng looked at his son, who was as chubby as a ball, and fell silent. After a while, he slowly took out a roll of light yellow parchment from his sleeve and gently unfolded it.
"Ning Ning, do you recognize this?" He placed the parchment in front of Lu Ning to observe his reaction.
Lu Ning looked at the contents of the parchment in confusion.
"Profound Heart Amethyst Pill: Improved recipe as follows: Pigeon Blood Milk 10 liang, Red Thread Worm 10 liang, Yellow Mattress Mushroom 1.5 liang. Three Hollow Stick Worms, Four Sunflower Dragonflies … "
This was a prescription that seemed to have a very high quality-price ratio. Lu Ning quickly glanced at it and shook his head.
"Ning Ning doesn't recognize it. Daddy, what is this? "
"This is the recipe," Lu Sheng said with a smile. "Are you sure? Think about it carefully. Do you really not recognize it?"
"No, I don't." Lu Ning shook his head obediently.
"Okay." Lu Sheng put away the recipe and ruffled Lu Ning's hair. "Have you been to the nearby counties recently?"
"No, the places Ning Ning goes to are arranged by the Elder Brothers and Uncles in the manor. Daddy knows where I go, right? "Lu Ning said innocently.
"Really?" Lu Sheng stared into his son's eyes.
"Really. Ning Ning wouldn't dare lie to daddy," Lu Ning said, feeling wronged.
He really didn't know. The recipe was modified by the old man who controlled his body. He was far from that level, so naturally, he didn't know anything.
As for going to other places, he basically had no idea. There was no difference between going to other places and staying here. Under the old man's control, the speed was frighteningly fast. He was in the Autumn Moon County in the morning, and in the afternoon, he could reach the neighboring county that was thousands of miles away.
Lu Ning didn't know how amazing it was. He just felt that he didn't go far, but he was already thousands of miles away. There wasn't much difference between the two places. This made him think that he didn't go far.
"Ning Ning, this is very important. Don't lie to daddy," Lu Sheng said seriously.
Lu Ning nodded. "At most, I went to other places in the afternoon, but I didn't go far," he added hesitantly.
"Okay." Lu Sheng didn't change his expression. He already had an answer in his heart. After that, he played all kinds of games with Lu Ning, or watched Lu Sheng change the shape of the Yin Fire or perform for Lu Ning.
When Lu Ning was tired of playing, Lu Sheng let him go back to shower and rest.
Until Little Fatty ran out of sight, Lu Sheng was still sitting alone in the pavilion, waiting for something.
Not long after, two figures in white robes with the word "Holy" embroidered on their chests walked quickly into the Chess Pavilion.
The leader was a handsome man with sharp eyes. The woman behind him had an enchanting figure, but she had shaved her head like a nun.
"I'm Zi Hengzi and Hong Meizi from the investigation team. Greetings, Divine Lord Lu." The two of them came before Lu Sheng and bowed slightly in respect.
"Your information has been delivered. Also, what do you think about your son's situation, Divine Lord Lu?" The man seemed respectful, but he was actually mocking him.
"You can investigate, but don't cause unnecessary negative effects to my son. This is the agreement we signed. Is that okay?" Lu Sheng said lightly.
"Of course." Zi Hengzi nodded.
"Also, I'll need a copy of the results of the investigation. That won't be a problem, right?" Lu Sheng asked.
"Of course." Zi Hengzi smiled.
Lu Sheng nodded. "If that's the case, I'll try my best to have the people in the sect cooperate with your various operations."
"Thank you for your understanding, Divine Lord. We can't thank you enough. "Zi Hengzi was satisfied. "If that's the case, we won't disturb your rest. We'll take our leave."
"As you wish." Lu Sheng slowly picked up the cup of green tea in front of him and took a sip.
…
After the First Sacred King's investigation team entered the Autumn Moon County, it took them about two months.
They thoroughly investigated and monitored every aspect of Lu Ning's life. And in the end, they really did find a lot of clues.
Lu Sheng didn't interfere with any of their operations. He came into contact with Zi Hengzi a few times, and noticed that his identity was strange. He didn't seem like a local expert of the Great Yin, but more like an Evil Art Master from the World of Pain. However, he was weaker than an Evil Art Master.
However, considering the fact that the Three Sacred Gates controlled the Three Realms Gate, it wasn't impossible for them to attract Evil Art Masters to join them.
He compared his own situation according to the contents of the information, and observed the movements of Zi Hengzi and the investigation team. In truth, he also had some doubts about Lu Ning's situation.
The information was only a description of common sense. It didn't help Lu Sheng at all. According to the records, anyone who stepped into the rank of a Weapon Grandmaster would instinctively undergo a special qualitative change.
Lu Sheng didn't notice any special qualitative change in his body. The only difference he felt was his spirit.
Before he obtained the information, Lu Sheng had a feeling that his spirit was beginning to fuse with the Yin Flame. As he cooperated with the investigation team in investigating Lu Ning, the speed of this fusion became faster and faster.
Before this, he didn't know what this fusion would bring. However, the records in the information gave him a guess. Perhaps the true qualitative change of a Weapon Grandmaster was only starting now.
The fusion of his spirit and Yin Flame took three months. After that, it only took two days for his spirit to fuse back into his body.
After the fusion, Lu Sheng didn't feel any changes. Hence, he decided to focus his attention on the investigation team. He was also curious about what the investigation team of the First Sacred King of the Three Sacred Gates could find out from Lu Ning.
Just as Lu Sheng was getting impatient from waiting, the investigation team came looking for him again. They wanted to conduct a deeper examination on Lu Ning.
In the guest hall, Lu Sheng sat on the main seat. He looked down at Zi Hengzi and Zi Hengzi. "Physique examination?" Cold blue torches burned silently on the walls on both sides of the hall. They emitted cold rays of light.
"Yes, a complete and thorough examination. It's also a form of protection for your son." Zi Hengzi was still smiling.
"I won't allow it," Lu Sheng said calmly.
"Divine Lord, why don't you reconsider? What if there's really something bad hidden in Young Master Ning's body …"
"I don't want to bear any additional risks. Let's end this here." Lu Sheng frowned. Recently, his spirit had been faintly fluctuating. His senses weren't strong to begin with. Now, they were even weaker. Hence, he didn't want the investigation team to complicate matters. It wouldn't be easy to handle if they came up with some tricks.
"… Alright. Since you insist, Divine Lord, we can only report to the higher-ups." Zi Hengzi shrugged helplessly.
"Do as you wish. I've cooperated with your investigation for so long, but there's been no movement at all. You can't blame others for this," Lu Sheng said drily.
"You're right, Divine Lord." Zi Hengzi smiled. He wasn't angry. "Then, we'll take our leave."
"Go. Send my regards to His Majesty the Sacred King. "Lu Sheng closed his eyes slowly. The changes in his spirit made him tired very easily.
"Of course." Zi Hengzi led Hong Meizi out of the meeting hall. When they left the courtyard, he turned around and glanced at the entire hall.
The smile on his face suddenly deepened.
"Everything's going well." Zi Hengzi patted Hong Meizi's shoulder lightly. "Let's go. It's time for our harvest."
"We've successfully swapped people. We've used a spirit of the same age with a compatibility of 95% and above. Also, the fake memories have been implanted very successfully." Hong Meizi transmitted her voice with a cold expression.
"That's right. I really didn't expect that little fellow to have such a rare treasure in his body. This is the legendary 'treasuring a jade ring becomes a crime'." Zi Hengzi smiled. He rose into the air and flew into the distance with Hong Meizi.
…
"Where … is this place?" Lu Ning stared warily at the dilapidated room around him.
He was clearly on his way back to the Lu Manor. However, the moment he stepped into the Lu Manor, everything before his eyes changed completely.
