I Have A Qi Fortune Altar-Chapter 114 - 109 of Supreme Mysterious Scripture! (Extra for the great lord Charming Ice Heart)
Chapter 114: Chapter 109 of Supreme Mysterious Scripture! (Extra for the great lord Charming Ice Heart)
“You can’t keep this secret for a lifetime, because only the dead can keep a secret.”
With Chen Yuan’s character, how could he possibly hand over the leverage to someone else?
His target had been Liu Shuanghe from the beginning.
He used Liu Shuanghe’s sword to kill Li Mingqi!
In this way, he wouldn’t leave any loose ends. Even if someone suspected something, they wouldn’t suspect him. There wasn’t a single wound on Li Mingqi’s body caused by Chen Yuan.
An injury examination wouldn’t reveal anything.
...
Even if someone suspected, what could they do?
Without evidence, Chen Yuan could accuse them of defamation.
Kneeling in front of Liu Shuanghe, a faint green Qi Fortune instantly surged into the Qi Fortune Altar in Chen Yuan’s mind, and soon, a new directive was transmitted.
“Nanling Prefecture, Yang Family Ancestral Hall, Supreme Mysterious Scripture.”
A look of ‘as expected’ crossed Chen Yuan’s eyes.
He had suspected before that the next opportunity, if nothing unforeseen happened, would be the Qi Absorption Technique he currently urgently needed, and indeed, there were no deficiencies now.
Thus, Chen Yuan could finally confirm something — the opportunity guided by the Qi Fortune Altar was tailor-made for him, the best suited for his current condition.
It relieved him.
If it were something else, it would indeed be troublesome for him now.
Now his cultivation had advanced far within the Bone Refining Level. It wouldn’t be long before he could completely finish his Bone Refining cultivation, needing to plan ahead for the next stage of his cultivation.
Supreme Mysterious Scripture.
Chen Yuan had not heard of this name, but from the name alone, he could feel that this cultivation technique was extraordinary.
Don’t ask why. It’s just a feeling.
From Vajra Glaze Body, to Marrow Cleansing Spirit Pearl, and to Blood Evil Saber, the items guided by the Qi Fortune Altar were all extraordinary.
After a moment of silence on the spot, Chen Yuan discarded some messy thoughts. Thinking too much now was useless. He hadn’t yet gone to Nanling Prefecture, nor did he know what the so-called Yang Family represented.
How strong their strength was, not to mention the Supreme Mysterious Scripture guided by the altar.
All this would have to wait until he entered the Heavenly Patrol Bureau for further investigation.

Slowly squatting on the ground, Chen Yuan lightly brushed over Liu Shuanghe’s eyes, causing them to close.
He always kept his word. He had said someone would accompany Li Mingqi down, and he definitely wouldn’t go back on his word. He said he would close Liu Shuanghe’s eyes himself, and he did.
He just always kept his promises.
Looking at Li Mingqi and Liu Shuanghe quietly lying on the ground, Chen Yuan smiled. These two fellows, one wanted to blackmail him, and the other wanted to use him as a scapegoat.
But…
In the end, it was Chen Yuan who orchestrated everything from behind.
First, he used Liu Shuanghe’s hand to kill Li Mingqi, and then he ambushed and schemed against Liu Shuanghe, becoming the biggest winner.
He wondered what they would talk about on their journey to the Netherworld.
Well…
They would probably curse, right?
Chen Yuan hadn’t touched any traces here but had simply erased some of his own footprints, then quickly pushed open the stone door and exited the rear mountain.
“Zhao Lao, show yourself,” Chen Yuan said very calmly.
As his words fell, a figure leaped down from the rear mountain and stopped steadily beside Chen Yuan.
It was Zhao Nanshan.
Before taking action, Chen Yuan had asked Wang Ping to find Zhao Nanshan, just to be on the safe side.
After all, Liu Shuanghe’s strength was indeed strong; if the Blood Evil Saber hadn’t taken out Liu Shuanghe, it would definitely have been a tough battle. Having Zhao Nanshan’s help would make it much easier.
But in the end, Zhao Nanshan’s help wasn’t needed; Chen Yuan ambushed Liu Shuanghe with ease.
Chen Yuan himself hadn’t expected it to go so smoothly.
“Is it done?” Zhao Nanshan asked in surprise, looking at Chen Yuan.
“Everything’s settled, and thank you, Zhao Lao, for making the journey here,” Chen Yuan replied.
“Hehe, no trouble at all,” Zhao Nanshan chuckled.
After exchanging a few words in the rear mountain, Chen Yuan left alone, gathering all the government officials and informed them that the County Magistrate had been killed by Liu Shuanghe.
…
…
“What did you say? Li Mingqi is dead!” exclaimed Wu Qingfeng, the County Magistrate, who immediately stood up, his face full of disbelief.
He could never have expected that just after eliminating a branch of the No-Life Sect, Li Mingqi would be dead, and only Chen Yuan survived.
No matter how he looked at it, it seemed fishy.
Chen Yuan’s face showed some panic:
“Sir, we need you to make a decision now. I have already sealed off the rear of Cien Temple, forbidding anyone from entering.”
“You need to tell this officer in detail what happened,” Wu Qingfeng said intently to Chen Yuan.
Chen Yuan nodded and briefly explained the matter. It began when Li Mingqi seemed to have discovered something at Cien Temple, and then ordered Chen Yuan and a group of government officials to go there.
Most of the government officials were ordered by Li Mingqi to search for the remnants of the No-Life Sect, while Chen Yuan was taken to the rear mountain.
Afterward, Li Mingqi entered alone.
Chen Yuan was guarding outside the rear mountain.
Soon after, Chen Yuan suddenly heard a cry of alarm from inside and rushed in immediately.
Then, he witnessed a horrifying scene: County Magistrate Li Mingqi was decapitated, his body covered entirely in sword cuts, and beside him lay a mummified corpse.
Upon closer inspection, Chen Yuan realized it was the Liu Family head from Cao County, Liu Shuanghe!
Shocked beyond belief, he quickly realized that something major had happened, ordered the sealing of the entire rear mountain, and then led the people back to the government.
Upon hearing Chen Yuan’s account, Wu Qingfeng’s brow was deeply furrowed.
First, there had been the disturbance caused by the demons of the No-Life Sect, and now the County Magistrate Li Mingqi had met with an untimely death; he felt that his position as County Magistrate might not last much longer.
The higher-ups would definitely have complaints about him.
Thinking this, Wu Qingfeng sat down in a chair and instructed his people:
“Hurry to the prefecture city, and report to the Magistrate!”
“Arrest officer Chen, before people from the prefecture city arrive, no one is to set foot on the rear mountain, and a gag order is to be issued immediately, forbidding anyone from spreading word of this, violators will be severely punished!”
After a long silence, Wu Qingfeng spoke in a low voice.
“Yes, I will obey the order!”
Chen Yuan raised his head, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.
Urged by Wu Qingfeng, the County Government’s personnel did not dare to delay and immediately rushed to the Prefecture City. The Magistrate was furious and sought out the Heavenly Patrol Envoy stationed in the Prefecture City.
After consulting with several officials, it was decided that the matter must be thoroughly investigated.
How long had it been since the eradication of the No-Life Sect’s demons in the Prefecture City? Yet they had already launched such a retaliation, showing complete disregard for the imperial court.
Meanwhile, the No-Life Sect’s higher echelons were also very suspicious.
When had he ordered the assassination of the County Magistrate of Ping’an County?
In these few days, Chen Yuan had been extremely diligent, not slackening in the slightest, ordering patrols around the county every day, as if there truly was a storm brewing.
Of course, Chen Yuan had also not neglected his cultivation.
Through various means, he had acquired a portion of the Bone Refining Pills within just two days to sustain his daily cultivation.
That day.
County Government, Arrest Room.
Wang Ping sat facing Chen Yuan, his face full of admiration.
He had no idea how Brother Yuan had managed to kill Li Mingqi, a figure he had always looked up to, which was completely beyond his expectations.
However, Chen Yuan showed no joy, maintaining his composure.
“How are things progressing?”
Chen Yuan asked in a low voice.
“Brother Yuan, rest assured, those two who attacked the Liu siblings have been completely taken down, and I broke Wu Yushan’s three legs when he wanted to see you,” Wang Ping continued with a corner of his mouth lifted, as if he had discovered something new.
“Very good…”
Chen Yuan nodded in satisfaction.
With that, the last logical piece was in place.
Otherwise, there would still be flaws.
Thus, the cause was Li Mingqi ordering the murder of the Liu siblings and framing Chen Yuan, but Liu Shuanghe seemed to know something and pointed directly at Li Mingqi.
In the end, both were harmed.
And Chen Yuan was the most wronged among them.
He could also be removed from the logic.
It was a simple story of revenge.
Not…
Maybe it also involves the issue of Li Mingqi embezzling silver.
“What about Li Mingqi?”
“There, I have also had people watch over it; currently, Li Mingqi’s family is still unaware of the matter and dares not act rashly,” Wang Ping continued.
“Well done.”
Chen Yuan praised.
“It’s all because of Brother Yuan’s strategy; I am merely following orders.”
Wang Ping chuckled.
“Sir, the County Magistrate calls for you; people from the Prefecture City have arrived.”
Suddenly, a young Government Official approached and bowed.
“Alright, I understand.”
Chen Yuan nodded, indicating his understanding.
When Chen Yuan arrived at the main hall, two people were already seated there—one was the County Magistrate Wu Qingfeng, and the other was a middle-aged man with a stern demeanor.
Dressed in the same black uniform as Zhang Xuan from the Heavenly Patrol Bureau, with a white pattern on the chest.
Behind him stood four or five Heavenly Patrol Guards.
Heavenly Patrol Envoy!
Chen Yuan’s pupils constricted; the death of a county magistrate was indeed enough to alarm a Heavenly Patrol Envoy.
According to what Chen Yuan had learned from Zhao Nanshan.
The Heavenly Patrol Bureau was divided into four levels: black, white, qing, and gold.
The most common were the Heavenly Patrol Guards, above them were the Heavenly Patrol Envoys in the Gang Condensation Realm, and even higher was the Green Envoy, commanding a prefecture with tremendous authority.
“I have seen the County Magistrate.”
Chen Yuan greeted with his hands clasped.
Wu Qingfeng nodded and said to Chen Yuan:
“Arrest Officer Chen, this is Heavenly Patrol Envoy Lu Yang, sent from above to investigate the death of Magistrate Li.”
“I have seen Envoy Lu.”
Chen Yuan gave a formal bow.
Lu Yang sized up Chen Yuan and said in a low voice:
“You are Chen Yuan.”
“Indeed.”
Chen Yuan nodded.
Wu Qingfeng showed a look of surprise; he hadn’t mentioned Chen Yuan’s name, only referring to him as Arrest Officer Chen. How did Lu Yang know his name?
Was there some secret involved?
“Envoy Lu also heard of Arrest Officer Chen’s name?”
Wu Qingfeng immediately asked.
Lu Yang nodded, offering a slight smile:
“Before coming here, Mr. Zhang Xuan had told me the name Chen Yuan, instructing me to bring him along to the Prefecture City.”
“To the Prefecture City?”
Wu Qingfeng narrowed his eyes, puzzled.
