The location Zhong Shu pointed to was a col in the mountain. Below the col, there was a big black hole.
"Your Highness, we found the relics of the two Saint Envoys and the Saint Child in this hole," Zhong Shu said.
Feng Shisan gave Lei Shijiu a look. Lei Shijiu understood and jumped into the hole.
Yang Xuan originally wanted to go down and take a look himself, but when he saw Lei Shijiu jump down, he reacted.
Now that his status was different, he didn't have to do everything himself. If there was anything, there would be subordinates to do it.
After a while, Lei Shijiu jumped up again and reported, "Your Highness, it's an ordinary hole. It's not big and there's nothing unusual."
Yang Xuan was noncommittal as he leapt into the cave.
The situation was as Lei Shijiu said. It was just an ordinary hole that looked natural. There was nothing special about it.
Feng Shisan and Lei Shijiu naturally followed. The last one to come down was Zhong Shu. After he landed, he walked to a corner of the hole and said, "Your Highness, the three people's belongings are here."
"Where are they?" Feng Shisan asked.
Zhong Shu said, "Commander Feng, they are in a secret room in the house."
Yang Xuan shook his head and said, "You shouldn't have touched them!"
Zhong Shu bowed and said, "This subordinate naturally knows how to protect the scene. The item was moved by Commander Jin Kui of the Battle Hall. This subordinate had no choice but to take it back and store it in the secret room. At first, Commander Jin was unwilling to give it to this subordinate, but this subordinate used Your Highness's name to make him give it to this subordinate unwillingly."
Jin Kui?
Yang Xuan's gaze was cold. He didn't expect Jin Kui to be involved.
"Let's go! There's nothing strange here, "Yang Xuan said.
When he said this, his gaze was a little strange.
The faint fluctuation from the Earth Pearl gave him a bold guess as to why the three of them had gone missing.
However, he naturally wouldn't tell others about this guess.
After returning to the Zhong Family, Zhong Shu took out the three people's belongings. Yang Xuan looked at them casually. There wasn't anything special. They were just some secret manuals and materials. They might be priceless in the eyes of others, but in Yang Xuan's eyes, they were nothing.
After instructing Zhong Shu to keep the things properly, he suddenly remembered that Qing Jie was missing.
"Saintess Qing Jie has already left," Yu Jiu replied.
Yang Xuan nodded, indicating that he understood.
It was already night time, and Yang Xuan was naturally arranged to rest in the most luxurious room.
The people of the Fourth Guard had already taken over the Zhong Family's defense, and Yang Xuan's location was completely untouchable.
Yang Xuan did not sleep. After rejecting the beautiful maidservant that Zhong Shu had arranged for him, he spread out his Spiritual Sense completely.
Immediately, the entire Qingyang city appeared in his head.
His main objective for coming to Qingyang this time was to find clues as to why Xiao Xue, the Human Pearl, had appeared here.
Ever since he had found out that Little Snow was a Human Jewel, he had always had doubts about this.
His soul sense completely dispersed, and Qingyang city turned into a scale model, entering Yang Xuan's head.
Yang Xuan began to search inch by inch.
He saw the Fourth Guard form four corners, surrounding and protecting him in the center, doing their job diligently.
He saw Zhong Shu cultivating a secret scripture, working extremely hard.
He saw all sorts of people, some he did not know, and some he knew.
His soul sense even reached deep into the imperial palace, "seeing" Su Hanyu and Su Zhenguo.
The range of his soul sense grew larger and larger, larger and larger, until it reached the limit.
Yang Xuan suddenly felt a wave of weakness in his mind.
Withdrawing his soul sense, he discovered that his soul gave off an aura of exhaustion.
He suddenly remembered that he had yet to cultivate his soul sense.
As a result, when his soul sense was exhausted, it could only recover naturally.
If only he had a method to cultivate his soul sense. That way, he would be able to recover his mental exhaustion quickly.
However, this was only a thought. As the pioneer of cultivation in this world, what could he possibly do?
Sighing slightly, a sliver of disappointment appeared in Yang Xuan's eyes.
He had spread out his soul sense completely for the first time this time, but he had failed to find any clues.
As a result, he was prepared to use a different method.
With a thought, his figure slowly faded away, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Leaving the Zhong family's estate, he confirmed the direction, passed through a few streets and arrived at a certain house.
Revealing himself, he had completely enveloped himself in a mass of black smoke.
"Who is it?" someone appeared from the darkness and asked in a low voice.
"Where Huang Quan is, God lives forever!" Yang Xuan spoke with a hoarse voice.
The person in the darkness was clearly shaken: "Worship my God forever, may I ask how many paths of Huang Quan are?"
This was Huang Quan sect's way of asking about their position in Huang Quan sect.
Normally, Yang Xuan would answer Huang Quan's question.
In Huang Quan sect, nine is the limit, and one is the beginning.
Both sides can use this to determine the other's position.
But Yang Xuan didn't play by the rules. Instead of answering Huang Quan's question, he directly threw a badge to the person.
The person took the badge, looked at it carefully, then suddenly trembled and knelt on the ground.
"My God above, please give me the oracle!"
Yang Xuan waved his hand slightly, and the badge flew back into his hand.
The badge he took out was called the Huang Quan Godly Badge. There was only one of it in the entire Huang Quan sect, and it was a grade higher than the chieftain's badge.
The appearance of the Huang Quan Godly Badge meant that the God of Huang Quan himself was about to give an oracle. How could anyone not be shocked?
Yang Xuan didn't know the name of the person kneeling on the ground, but he knew that he was the person in charge of the Huang Quan sect here.
"What is your name?" Yang Xuan asked.
"Divine envoy, my name is Jiang He."
Wang Yuan then asked, "How many disciples of Huang Quan are there in Sunwheel?"
Still kneeling on the ground, Jiang He did not even dare to look up as he answered, "Divine envoy, there are seventeen Huang Quan believers and twelve hundred civilians in Qingyang city. Within the territory of the Sun Kingdom, there are 54 followers of the Yellow Springs and over 28,000 civilians. "
So many?
Yang Xuan did not expect that the Huang Quan sect had secretly developed such a powerful faction here.
Believers were true believers who had been baptized by the power of Huang Quan, while civilians were disciples of the sect who had never been baptized by the power of Huang Quan, and were equivalent to external disciples.
"Jiang He, I want you to investigate something."
"Please give your oracle, Divine Envoy." Jiang He did not hesitate.
Yang Xuan took out the Huang Quan Godly Badge, and every word he said was an oracle. He would not hesitate even if Jiang He was told to kill himself right now, let alone carry out a task.
"There was an auction here eight years ago, and someone bought a white-haired slave named Xiao Xue. I want you to investigate everything that happened before the auction, and remember, everything."
"As you command." Jiang He was so excited that his body was shaking. It was the greatest honor of his life to serve the oracle.
"Once you have results, use the Huang Quan Prayer and I'll naturally know." Yang Xuan flatly said.
Jiang He's body shook violently.
The Huang Quan Prayer was used to pray to the God of Yellow Springs for an oracle. If the Divine Envoy could receive information from the Huang Quan Prayer, did that not mean …
Jiang He's entire body was shaking. He did not dare to think further, and simply lowered his body even further.
Following which, Yang Xuan went to a few more suspicious places, but still found nothing.
It was almost dawn when Yang Xuan returned to the Zhong family's house.
At daybreak, Yang Xuan finished washing up and eating an exquisite breakfast when Zhong Shu came in to report.
Su Hanyu had arrived.
