Fantasy, my Taoist practices are unorthodox

"impossible!"

Liu Mengqin couldn't help but shake her head; at that time, Ye Beiming was still completely within her sight.

How could he possibly have time to kill someone?

It's just that the profile of this portrait bears an extremely similar resemblance to Ye Beiming.

"The swordsmanship used by this murderer should be related to the Sword Master."

"I heard that Jian Kui traveled to the Great Qian Kingdom half a month ago. Perhaps finding Jian Kui is the key..."

Seeing that Liu Mengqin was so concerned about Yue Changkong's death, Zhuo Zhenfeng asked her curiously.

However, seeing that Liu Mengqin had stopped there, he did not ask any further questions.

In his mind, this woman was naturally not as simple as he had imagined.

After chatting for a while, Liu Mengqin decided to get up and say goodbye.

"Mengqin, please stay a little longer, I want to hear you play the zither..."

Seeing this, Zhuo Zhenfeng hurriedly made an excuse to persuade him to stay, his words carrying a hint of reluctance and anticipation.

"Your Highness, Mengqin has important business to attend to back in Yunzhou. I will come to your residence to play the zither after I have finished my business..."

Liu Mengqin bowed slightly, her voice clear and cold like a spring.

"Alright then, be careful..."

Zhuo Zhenfeng's eyes held a hint of deep affection.

Unfortunately, Liu Mengqin walked away lightly, her eyes devoid of any emotion, as if her heart were a still, lifeless lake.

Zhuo Zhenfeng watched her receding figure, clenched his fists, and finally let out a helpless sigh.

Soon, the sickly look on Zhuo Zhenfeng's face vanished without a trace, replaced by a deep and cold expression.

"Your Highness, why is Qin Kui so concerned about Yue Changkong's death?"

At this moment, a dark figure appeared silently in front of the Second Prince, his voice deep and powerful.

"This matter must be related to the extraordinary secret map that Lord Yuezhou possesses. Who wouldn't want the opportunity to inherit the extraordinary realm?"

“This time, my second brother did not obtain any extraordinary remnants in the Azure Dragon Ruins, and Father has already expressed his dissatisfaction. Therefore, we must obtain this secret map.”

"Although I don't know what Qin Kui is investigating, her coming and going in such a hurry should be consistent with what we are looking for..."

Zhuo Zhenfeng said with great confidence.

He got to know this zither master through Yue Changkong's introduction.

Yunzhou has always been a battleground for princes vying for the throne, so these people have always valued Yunzhou highly.

"Your Highness, don't you suspect this woman's identity?"

The shadow reminded.

"Of course I had my suspicions, but she has some connection to the Ye family. She doesn't seem like the kind of person who can be easily swayed. At least Yue Changkong can't control her..."

"But Yue Changkong's death is no small matter; all intelligence has been blocked. Nobody knows where this secret map is."

Zhuo Zhenfeng frowned.

"Your Highness is willing to investigate this matter and share your burden."

The shadowy figure suddenly volunteered.

"Be careful!"

Zhuo Zhenfeng nodded, stood alone by the window, and gazed at the autumn leaves falling outside.

With autumn approaching, the competition for the crown prince position will inevitably intensify.

Whoever can become a Grandmaster faster has a better chance.

He also dreamed of becoming the crown prince so he could enter the royal ancestral land more quickly and achieve the extraordinary realm by relying on the secret map.

Who wouldn't want to be a great emperor for all time!

Ye Beiming, who had just left the Xiaoyao Sect, discovered trouble after traveling only a few hundred miles.

Because he no longer has any spirit stones in his storage ring, only a small amount of loose silver!

He hasn't reached the point where he can abstain from grains yet; he still needs to eat, drink, and stay in the house!

Previously, it would have taken only seven days to travel home by carriage, but with Ye Beiming's current strength, he could probably arrive in just two days.

However, without money, he had to stay overnight in the wild, which felt a bit like wilderness survival.

A day later, lightning flashed and thunder roared in the sky, followed by a torrential downpour, plunging the world into darkness.

"I've never been this pathetic in both my lives!"

"But this is also a kind of experience."

Ye Beiming's body was surrounded by swirling internal energy, preventing even a drop of rain from getting in.

There was an abandoned temple ahead. He suddenly accelerated and rushed into the temple!

This abandoned temple was very shady, clearly indicating that it had been uninhabited for a long time! And half of this abandoned temple was still intact, just enough to provide shelter from the wind and rain!

"You're actually pretty lucky!"

Ye Beiming walked around and found some dried thatch in the corner, which seemed to have been left by people who lived here a long time ago.

He gathered the thatch together, then dismantled a large beam from the abandoned temple, chopped it into small pieces, and started a fire.

Although Grandmaster-level experts are not afraid of the cold, the warmth of flames is always more comfortable.

As the soul of the Earth, he always possessed a consciousness superior to that of ordinary people.

"Hoohoo!"

The cold wind outside the deserted temple made the flames sway left and right, on the verge of dying out.

"I never imagined that I, Ye Beiming, would ever be so down on my luck!"

Ye Beiming smiled wryly, took out the last piece of ordinary beast meat from his storage ring, cut it into strips, skewered it, and grilled it directly.

After eating all that beast meat, he was completely empty-handed!

This trip to the Azure Dragon Ruins basically emptied his pockets.

Fortunately, the Dao Fruit of Life and Death was activated within the limited time.

Although his cultivation level fluctuates and cannot be stabilized, he is still at the Grandmaster level.

This time when he returned home, he naturally wanted to make the most of the absence and teach Yang Luochen a lesson.

It's because he already has a knot in his heart; every time he's happy, it's because he's been conquered by women.

Although that feeling was also great, it was never as perfect as unleashing your own power.

As a grandmaster martial artist, Yang Luochen's physical strength is naturally incomparable to that of ordinary people, so as long as Ye Beiming dares to think it, there is a way to satisfy any unlocking.

He is currently nearly a thousand miles away from Yunzhou. If he were to return home like this, he would probably be like a beggar.

As the temperature rises, the meat sizzles and releases an amazing aroma.

After a few dozen breaths, you can enjoy it with peace of mind.

"Boom!" A deafening thunderclap echoed in the sky, followed by a ferocious bolt of lightning. Outside the deserted temple, the sound of someone rushing about could be heard.

Although the sound was very faint amidst the wind and rain, it was no different from thunder in the sky for someone of Ye Beiming's cultivation level.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

Jiang Yunyi suppressed the stench of blood rising in her chest, and with the remaining internal energy surging within her body, she beheaded the three martial artists who were chasing her with a single sword strike!

Three enormous heads shot into the sky, but Jiang Yunyi didn't even glance at them before staggering toward the entrance to the deserted temple ahead.

At this moment, her inner energy was completely depleted. Even if a martial artist with acquired skills were to come, they would plunge her into an abyss of no return.

Inside the deserted temple, a rich aroma of meat wafted out, and even in the wind and rain, the fragrance was irresistible.

"There are people inside the abandoned temple, but they are most likely not martial artists!"

This thought flashed through Jiang Yunyi's mind at that moment.

After all, a martial artist would not normally spend the night in a deserted temple and eat the meat of such a common ferocious beast.
