The poorest member of the Imperial Guard, the Empress begged me to embezzle.

"The Seven Killings Organization?"

Upon hearing this, Murong Si's pretty face turned icy cold, and she said with icy eyes, "Investigate!"

Investigate the Seven Killings organization thoroughly!

We must find the hiding place of the Seven Killings organization!

Knowing full well that Chu Xiu was someone Murong Si valued and an important minister of her Great Zhou Dynasty, she still dared to attack Chu Xiu.

This Seven Kills organization is truly lawless!

The crime deserves death!

"Yes!"

Pei Guanyin's expression turned solemn, and she spoke in a firm and powerful voice.

As the Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Murong Si wielded power that was not only not weak, but could even be described as incredibly strong.

Pei Guanyin, one of Murong Si's right-hand women and in charge of intelligence, was naturally well aware of this.

"We found the hiding place of the Seven Killings organization's branch in the capital and secretly delivered it to the Northern Garrison Command."

Murong Si pondered for a moment, then said to Pei Guanyin, "Since this Seven Killings organization attempted to assassinate Minister Chu, Minister Chu should deal with it personally!"

"I understand."

Pei Guanyin said with a respectful expression.

Murong Si picked up the memorial on the table and began to read it, remaining silent.

Pei Guanyin bowed and then quietly withdrew.

The Embroidered Uniform Guard, the Northern Garrison Command.

In the study room.

Chu Xiu was looking at a scroll.

In fact, ever since he transmigrated and became the garrison commander of the Northern Garrison, he has been reading through the various files in the Northern Garrison's Records Department to learn about the situation of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Suddenly!

"The esteemed host purchased rice, flour, cooking oil, and other supplies with 400,000 taels of silver and donated them free of charge to the poor people of the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty. By persistently doing positive things, you have received a reward of 50 years of innate true qi, the Taiyin Sword Manual, and the Taixu Eight Steps."

"Do you want to receive the reward?"

The mechanical voice of the positive energy system rang in Chu Xiu's mind.

"Yes."

Chu Xiu's eyes lit up, and he spoke without hesitation.

He knows it!

Since there are rewards for catching corrupt officials and killing killers.

Therefore, donating rice, flour, cooking oil, and other supplies to the poor people of Beijing for free is certainly a positive thing to do.

Now, here's the reward!

Boom!

As soon as he finished speaking, a vast and powerful innate true energy appeared in Chu Xiu's dantian.

The Innate Qiankun Technique operates automatically, absorbing and refining fifty years' worth of innate true energy.

The true energy of heaven and earth continued to grow stronger, causing the innate true energy in Chu Xiu's dantian to become increasingly vast, to the point that the dantian could no longer contain it.

At this moment, nearly one-third of his fifty years of innate true energy remained.

"It's time to break through to the Grandmaster realm!"

Chu Xiu took a deep breath to calm himself down. Using the method of the Innate Qiankun Technique, he compressed the Qiankun True Qi, causing it to slowly liquefy and transform from Qiankun True Qi into Qiankun True Essence!

Drops of true essence of heaven and earth condensed in Chu Xiu's dantian.

In the blink of an eye.

It was formed from nine drops of Qiankun True Essence.

Meanwhile, the innate true energy in Chu Xiu's dantian became empty, leaving only the innate true energy rewarded by the positive energy system that had not yet been refined.

The Innate Qiankun Technique absorbed and refined the remaining innate true energy, condensing it into three drops of Qiankun True Essence.

This gave Chu Xiu a full twelve drops of innate true essence.

Every drop of innate true essence seemed to contain boundless power!

"Not bad, I've finally broken through to the Grandmaster realm!"

"Although my current cultivation level is only at the first level of the Grandmaster realm, my strength has increased more than tenfold!"

"This is the transformation from the Innate Realm to the Grandmaster Realm!"

"With the strength of my Qiankun True Essence, I may not be unable to fight against a true Grandmaster-level expert."

A glint of light flashed in Chu Xiu's eyes, and he said with a smile.

As soon as he finished speaking, countless thoughts flooded his mind.

This content is precisely the Taiyin Sword Manual and the Eight Steps of Taixu, which are rewards from the positive energy system.

In a short while, Chu Xiu had received all the information.

The Taiyin Sword Manual is a combination of two parts: internal cultivation techniques and sword techniques. The two parts are Taiyin internal cultivation techniques and Taiyin sword techniques.

It is a truly unparalleled martial art.

Although it is not as good as Chu Xiu's Innate Qiankun Skill and Immortal-Slaying Draw Sword Technique.

But it's definitely no worse than the Killing Blade Manual!

The Eight Steps of Taixu is a lightness skill, which is incredibly powerful whether for long journeys or close combat.

"Now I have the internal energy cultivation method, the knife technique, the sword technique, and the lightness skill."

"It has almost no weaknesses."

Chu Xiu stood up, walked to his desk, and began grinding ink. After grinding the ink, he picked up a wolf-hair brush and began writing on sheets of snow-white Xuan paper.

It wasn't just the Taiyin Heart Sutra that he wrote.

He also drew all the moves of the Taiyin Sword Technique.

Although it was just Xuan paper, when the moves of the Taiyin Sword Technique were drawn on it, it seemed as if a terrifying sword aura was emanating from the Xuan paper!

This is the power of a positive energy system.

After receiving the Taiyin Sword Manual and Taixu Eight Steps as rewards from the Positive Energy System, Chu Xiu's two martial arts techniques had already reached perfection!

After a while.

Chu Xiu folded the sheets of Xuan paper neatly and put them away. Then he opened the door to his study and strode out.

By this time, it had already gotten dark.

"Greetings, my lord."

Fang Heng, who was waiting outside the study, bowed respectfully when he saw Chu Xiu come out.

"No gift."

Chu Xiu waved his hand and said.

"Thank you, sir."

Fang Heng expressed his gratitude.

"Is something the matter?"

Chu Xiu glanced at Fang Heng and said.

"Your Excellency, I have completed the task you instructed me to undertake."

"My subordinates contacted major grain merchants in the capital and purchased 400,000 taels of silver worth of rice, flour, cooking oil, and other supplies, which have already been distributed to the poor people of the capital in batches."

"However, because of our large numbers, and because our Northern Garrison is still investigating the Seven Killings Organization."

"Therefore, it will take at least three days, or even five days, to truly complete the distribution."

Fang Heng said respectfully.

"well done."

Chu Xiu nodded slightly and said, "Did Pei Shiji and the others find anything during their investigation of the Seven Killers organization?"

"Reporting to Your Excellency, no findings have been made so far."

Fang Heng shook his head and said, "However, Brother Pei and the others are already stepping up their investigation. I believe it won't be long before we find clues and discover the hiding place of the Seven Kills Organization's Beijing branch."

"Alright, tell Pei Shiji and the others to continue the investigation, and report to me whenever they make any discoveries."

Chu Xiu left those words behind and strode out of the Northern Garrison Office with an imposing air.

"Yes, sir!"

Fang Heng said with a serious expression.
