If you traveled back to ancient times, while others ate Guanyin clay, you would actually have giant

Soon the guards brought the opera troupe owner, who was so frightened that his legs went weak. He had only brought his opera troupe to perform and make a living, how did he end up in such a mess?

"Tell me, are you all accomplices? Where is that old woman from earlier?"

Niu Er grabbed the boss by the collar and lifted him up, saying fiercely.

"My lord, I'm innocent! The magician just now wasn't from our opera troupe."

"what!"

. . . . . .

The top brass in the South China Sea are going crazy. Zhou Wu's habit of being kidnapped at the drop of a hat is just too worrying.

Madam Lin personally guarded all the major docks, and the ships circled the South China Sea islands non-stop for twelve hours a day, not letting any ship leave the South China Sea.

Now, if someone wants to enter the South China Sea, no problem; but if they want to leave, sorry, no.

Niu Er led his soldiers to search the entire island for suspicious persons, and for a time, the whole island of Nanhai was in a state of panic.

In a forest outside the city on a South China Sea island.

The development of the South China Sea has not yet reached this area, so there are almost no traces of human activity.

At that moment, a meaty aroma wafted from a cave.

The four strange men were roasting the wild game they had hunted, while Zhou Wu lay nearby, deep in a coma.

“I’ve already checked, all the sea outlets are blocked, so it’s impossible to leave the island now.”

Because of his speed, the dwarf man is usually in charge of gathering intelligence.

"The city is heavily guarded now. If we show our faces, we'll definitely be recognized."

The short, fat man also shared what he had found out with everyone.

"What do we do now?"

The tall, thin man's words immediately drew everyone's attention to the old woman, because she was the one in charge among the four of them.

"Don't rush, stay here for a few days, there will be a time to relax."

Once the old woman spoke, everyone stopped discussing the topic.

The old woman walked up to the unconscious Zhou Wu, kicked him, and said.

"How long are you going to keep up this act?"

Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, Zhou Wu sat up abruptly.

"Old woman, do you know who I am? If you kidnap me, you'll probably be unable to leave the South China Sea."

No matter what the situation, make sure you have enough momentum first.

Zhou Wu himself didn't know what was going on, but he just wanted to scare the other party first.

“If you weren’t Zhou Wu, we wouldn’t have tied you up.”

"Who are you people? What do you want from me by kidnapping me? Are you here to avenge Zhang Fan?"

Zhou Wu had experienced too many kidnappings before, so he was no longer as uneasy as before. Instead, he calmly tried to understand the other party's needs step by step.

The only thing he could think of right now was that the other party must be related to Zhang Fan.

"Heh, avenge Zhang Fan? Lord Zhou overestimates him. He's not worthy."

The old woman seemed somewhat disdainful when she heard Zhang Fan's name.

"It's not because of Zhang Fan? I haven't offended anyone else recently."

Zhou Wu was now completely baffled.

"We won't play riddles with Lord Zhou. We do know Zhang Fan, but kidnapping you is not to avenge him."

What do you mean?

"The four of us are disciples of the Overseas Lost Sect. Zhang Fan is an outer disciple of the Tantric Sect, basically just a menial laborer. To the sect, he's insignificant; his death is no big deal."

"Esoteric Buddhism? Cultivating immortality? Heh."

Damn it, Zhou Wu felt like he had time-traveled again. It was supposed to be history, but how did it turn into cultivating immortality?

"So you really do know about cultivating immortality. It seems Zhang Fan was telling the truth in his letter. Lord Zhou, I won't make things difficult for you. Just tell me about Bai Yujing, and I'll guarantee your safety."

Mentioning Bai Yujing, the other three people behind the old woman also stared at Zhou Wu with bloodshot eyes. This feeling reminded Zhou Wu of Hou Zhenghao, who was stubbornly brainwashed.

"Baiyujing, it's Baiyujing again. I can tell you about Baiyujing, but could you first tell me about your Tantric sect?"

Feeling that things were getting more and more complicated, Zhou Wu also wanted to take the opportunity to gather more information.

“If it were someone else, that would be absolutely impossible, but for you, Lord Zhou, we are all on the same side, so there’s no need to keep it a secret.”

The old woman didn't seem to be in a hurry, and patiently began to explain the Tantric sect to Zhou Wu.

"Our Tantric sect is a cultivation method from an overseas immortal island. Our founding ancestor accidentally obtained a cultivation manual that recorded many things about Baiyujing. However, because it was an incomplete copy, the information we have is not complete."

The correction of cultivation techniques, what about Bai Yujing's situation? Could there really be immortals in this world? Even Zhou Wu, who had always believed in materialism, was starting to feel uneasy.

"Do any of you have successfully cultivated to immortality?"

This is what Zhou Wu cares about most.

"No, because the cultivation method is incomplete, it has been nearly a hundred years since it was founded, and has gone through three generations of leaders, but no one has succeeded."

Fortunately, the answer that no one had become an immortal brought Zhou Wu a sigh of relief.

"Later, the sect leader felt that the sect could not be complacent. Since the incomplete cultivation method could not succeed, the sect should complete the cultivation method and collect more information about Baiyujing. Thus, the outer sect disciples were established."

"I'd like to ask, when did Zhang Fan join your Tantric sect? He's a high-ranking official in the Great Dragon Sect, so why would he willingly become a lowly outer disciple?"

"I don't remember Zhang Fan very well, because there are too many outer disciples in the Tantric sect. I think he joined the sect less than two years ago. He was introduced by Hou Zhenghao."

"What! Hou Zhenghao is also an outer disciple of your Tantric sect."

"Yes, Hou Zhenghao has been a member of my Tantric sect for over ten years."

More than ten years? Does that mean he was already an outer disciple of the Mizong Sect before he became an official?

Zhou Wu suddenly realized that he might have underestimated this esoteric sect.

"Yes, all his skills were taught by my Tantric sect. His achievements in the Great Dragon Dynasty are also due to the help of my Tantric sect."

"You deliberately placed him in the court? Do you intend to replace him?"

Zhou Wu was shocked. The secret sect had managed to lie low for so long, and their undercover agents even held such high positions in the imperial court.

"Rest assured, Lord Zhou, our Tantric sect has no interest in these worldly troubles. We only care about cultivation, Bai Yujing."

How many people are there in your Tantric sect?

"Hehe, Lord Zhou, you're not being honest. You want to find out the details of my Tantric Sect? But it's alright. We'll tell you everything we know, Lord Zhou. There aren't actually many inner disciples in the Tantric Sect. The sect leader cultivates on the Immortal Island all year round, and there are only a few dozen inner disciples. But there are many outer disciples, at least several thousand."

Thousands of people! Zhou Wu now fully understood this esoteric sect. It was probably just a cult organization. What cultivation? They didn't even have a single successful case yet.
