Chapter 193: Chapter 111: Overnight in the Imperial Palace! The Empress is Crying Again! (6K)_4

Chen Mo said, "It’s fine, as long as I can make use of you."

"..."

Li Yuan playfully rolled her eyes at him, "Then you better be gentle, don’t wear your subordinate out..."

?

*This Little Tiger was getting better at this!*

Chen Mo walked over to the chair and sat down, saying, "Contact the branch office in the Donghua Region. I want to know all the recent developments, especially around Cangyun Mountain. I need to review any unusual activities one by one."

The authority of the Sky Scale Guard was not limited to the Capital City.

There were branch offices in major counties across various regions, mainly tasked with monitoring local officials and investigating various cases to strengthen the court’s control and intelligence collection across Jiu Zhou.

"Yes."

Li Yuan responded promptly and began arranging the tasks.

In less than half a day, dozens of Jade Scrolls were laid out before Chen Mo.

After reviewing them one by one, he understood the situation.

"Cangyun Mountain’s brilliance soared throughout the night, possibly a treasure emerging or a secret realm opening. Major sects are making moves..."

"Hmm, the timeline does match."

This time, the anomaly at Cangyun Mountain indeed involved an inheritance emerging, including a fragmentary Chapter of the ’Mixed Element Body Refining Technique’!

Calculating the time, it should happen within these two days.

Chen Mo definitely planned to visit the Donghua Region, but the strange black cat he encountered last night served as a reminder—

As soon as he left the Lin Family, he was ambushed; clearly, someone had their sights set on him!

The opponent wouldn’t dare make a move in the city, but outside the city, it would be a different story.

Therefore, he needed to act low-key and avoid leaking any information.

"Sir, why are you suddenly investigating the Donghua Region?" Li Yuan asked curiously.

Chen Mo snapped back to reality, sizing her up, and suddenly said, "General Li, do you know your crime?"

Li Yuan was stunned, "What crime does your subordinate have?"

Chen Mo crossed his arms and said, "I received a report accusing you of severe issues with the accounts..."

Li Yuan knew he was joking and played along, feigning nervousness and saying in a flustered tone, "Which aspect of the issue does Sir mean?"

Chen Mo replied seriously, "Too much tax evasion, we’ll have to investigate to the end!"

Li Yuan: "..."

...

...

Shen Residence.

In the hall, Shen Zhixia sat in a chair, looking at the stoic Daoist nun in front of her, somewhat surprised, "Daoist Qingxuan, why have you come to Tiandu City?"

Ling Ningzhi said indifferently, "I am here like you, returning home to visit my relatives."

"It turns out Daoist is a native of the Capital? I’ve never heard you mention it before... I apologize, I should have paid you a visit myself," Shen Zhixia said.

There were exchanges among the Three Saints, and as a true disciple of Martial Saint Mountain, Shen Zhixia was among Ling Ningzhi’s few friends.

"Grandfather is not convenient recently, maybe in the future there will be an opportunity, I will take you to meet him,"

Ling Ningzhi’s eyes dimmed slightly at this mention.

But she quickly regained her cheer and said, "Recently, there have been unusual activities in the Donghua Region. It seems there’s a treasure emerging, and I plan to investigate. Are you interested in joining?"

Although she missed the Heavenly Primordial Spirit Fruit, she would not give up!

To refine the Creation Golden Pill, the materials needed were not limited to the Heavenly Primordial Spirit Fruit but included various rare Immortal Materials, and the scale of the Donghua Region anomaly was large; perhaps what she needed would be there!

"This..."

Shen Zhixia hesitated.

Though she was visiting relatives this time, she was also practicing away from the mountain, and it was a rare opportunity to travel with Daoist Qingxuan.

But she still felt a bit reluctant to part with Chen Mo...

"The Donghua Region is not far from Tiandu City; it’s only a few days’ round trip."

"Besides, Brother Chen Mo’s strength was growing, I must keep up... Just a step away from the fifth-grade; this might be a chance to break through."

After thinking for a moment, Shen Zhixia nodded, "Alright, let’s go together."

"Good."

Ling Ningzhi nodded slightly.

After chatting for a while, Ling Ningzhi remembered something and curiously asked, "By the way, I’ve heard you mention you have a childhood sweetheart fiancé in Tiandu City..."

Shen Zhixia’s lips curled into a proud smile, "That’s right, he’s a hero who’s solved significant cases! Extremely talented and strong, I estimate he could rank in the top three of the Cloud Top Ranking!"

"..."

Ling Ningzhi was momentarily speechless.

As a disciple of the Tianshu Pavilion, she understood the significance of being in the top three of the Cloud Top Ranking. frёewebnoѵēl.com

Though being among the "Ten Elite," the gap between the top three and the following seven was steep, as she was the third-ranked Heavenly Pride on the Cloud Top Ranking...

Seeing Ling Ningzhi’s disbelief, Shen Zhixia snorted proudly, "You’ll know when Daoist meets him in person... But he’s quite handsome, Daoist, don’t try to snatch him from me!"

?

Ling Ningzhi had a puzzled expression.

Solved major cases, extremely strong, also very handsome... How much love potion had Shen Zhixia been fed?

She couldn’t help but grow more curious about what kind of man had charmed this foodie to such an extent?
