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

"Don't let your guard down, keep a close eye on them!"

Chu Xiu nodded slightly and said, "By the way, you should also hurry up and investigate, and compile a list of all the officers and staff in the thousand-household and hundred-household offices throughout our Great Zhou Dynasty who have colluded with the aristocratic families and work for them!"

Regardless of whether they cooperate with the free clinic activities or whether they outwardly comply while secretly seeking personal gain.

Those who serve powerful families and are willing to be their lackeys must be eliminated!

Once the list is finalized, it will be handed over to Fang Heng's elite guards, the Shocking Guards, who will be responsible for the purge!

"Yes!"

"My subordinate understands!"

Lin Huaiyu said with a solemn expression.

Chu Xiu waved to Lin Huaiyu and remained silent.

Lin Huaiyu bowed and turned to leave.

Suddenly!

"Congratulations, host! For promoting free medical clinics throughout the Great Zhou Dynasty, purging the aristocratic traitors within the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and persisting in doing positive things, you have received the reward of fifty years of primordial spirit power, the reward of mastering the fourth level of the Undying Golden Body Technique, and the reward of ten cubic meters of system storage space!"

"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 was overjoyed. He took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and said in his mind.

The voice just fell.

Fifty years of primordial spirit power appeared in Chu Xiu's dantian.

The Innate Qiankun Technique operated automatically, absorbing this vast and boundless primordial spirit power, causing Chu Xiu's primordial spirit to grow stronger at a visible speed.

In the blink of an eye.

Chu Xiu's internal energy cultivation level broke through from the peak of the fifth level of the Yuan Shen Realm to the sixth level, and then the seventh level.

Ultimately, he even stepped into the eighth level of the Primordial Spirit Realm, reaching the peak of the eighth level of the Primordial Spirit Realm!

Immediately afterwards, an incomparably powerful force, brimming with vitality, appeared and permeated into Chu Xiu's body, causing his Undying Golden Body Technique to break through from the peak of the ninth level of the Grandmaster Realm all the way to the peak of the sixth level of the Primordial Spirit Realm!

"Peak of the sixth level of the Nascent Soul Realm?"

"Is this the fourth level of the Undying Golden Body Technique at its peak?"

"If this is the peak of the fourth level, then I should be at the peak of the ninth level of the Nascent Soul Realm in terms of external martial arts cultivation!"

"However, although the external martial arts path is also called the peak of the ninth level of the Primordial Spirit Realm, in reality, those who follow the external martial arts path do not condense their Primordial Spirit."

"Therefore, I still only have one primordial spirit, rather than two primordial spirits being born."

"The path of external martial arts training is a process of strengthening the physical body, ultimately leading to immortality and proving the Dao through strength!"

Chu Xiu slowly opened his eyes, thinking to himself, "With my current power at the fourth level of the Undying Golden Body Technique, I'm afraid a single punch would be enough to kill a peak ninth-level Nascent Soul Realm martial artist, or even a Dharma Aspect Realm martial artist!"

In this world, I finally have the real power to protect myself, instead of just any Tom, Dick, or Harry daring to provoke me!

Suddenly!

Chu Xiu sensed a space about ten cubic meters in size.

The ten Pure Yang Limitless Pills that were previously awarded by the Positive Energy System have also been placed into the system space.

"Great, with this system space, I can store my things here from now on."

"The system space is even more useful to me than the reward martial arts."

A smile appeared on Chu Xiu's face as he walked out of the Northern Garrison Office.

It was getting late, so he naturally wouldn't stay at the Northern Garrison Office any longer and it was time to return home.

this moment.

Monk Mingxin left the Great Buddha Temple and headed towards the capital.

this moment.

In a courtyard in the capital city.

An elderly man with a kind face and a plump figure, resembling a nouveau riche, sat in the pavilion.

This person was Qian Ruyi, a protector of the Seven Killings organization sent to the capital by the Po Jun Hall to continue the assassination attempt on Chu Xiu.

At the Dharma Aspect Realm level, within the Seven Killers organization, one is no longer simply an ordinary assassin.

Rather, they are beings at the level of Dharma Protectors!

"Guardian, this is all the information I have gathered about Chu Xiu."

A man in black handed a stack of Xuan paper to Qian Ruyi.

Qian Ruyi took the stack of Xuan paper and began to examine it carefully.

After a while, Qian Ruyi gently moved her right hand, and the stack of Xuan paper turned into dust, fell to the ground, and disappeared without a trace.

"So, to this day, our Seven Kills Organization still doesn't know what level of cultivation Chu Xiu has?"

Qian Ruyi glanced at the man in black and said calmly.

The man in black hesitated for a moment before saying, "Reporting to the Protector, it is indeed so. All we know is that even Kong Yuancheng, the Vice Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and the Ruthless True Man, both peak experts at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul Realm, died at the hands of Chu Xiu."

As for whether he is at the Nascent Soul Realm or the Dharma Aspect Realm, we currently have no way of knowing.

However, based on Chu Xiu's age, we can infer that he is most likely still at the Nascent Soul Realm level.

However, this person is a true peerless genius. Although he is only at the Nascent Soul Realm, his strength within the Nascent Soul Realm is very likely to have reached an invincible level!

Only the most outstanding geniuses at the Nascent Soul Realm have a chance to compete with him!

Or perhaps only a being at the Dharma Aspect Realm level, like a Dharma Protector, could kill this person.

"Therefore, these are just speculations."

"What if this person is a truly extraordinary genius who has already reached the Dharma Aspect Realm?"

Qian Ruyi shook her head and said.

The man in black's pupils contracted, and he said in a low voice, "Guardian, it shouldn't be that bad, right?"

This person comes from an ordinary background and has no chance of obtaining any cultivation resources.

Only those exceptional geniuses from aristocratic families receive a great deal of resources from a young age.

That's why he had the opportunity to reach the Dharma Aspect Realm at such a young age.

"Do you know why I've never failed at killing people?"

"Because I never do anything I'm not sure I can do!"

Qian Ruyi said meaningfully, "Therefore, keep an eye on Chu Xiu. I need to know his true strength."

If his strength is beyond my capabilities, then I can only report this matter to the Palace Master, who will then decide whether to send someone else to assassinate Chu Xiu.

At that time, even if someone else is sent to assassinate Chu Xiu.

With the detailed information I provided, the Palace Master will not blame me.

"The protector is indeed steadfast."

The man in black said with an expression of admiration.

Qian Ruyi smiled but remained silent.

These are all life lessons; overly reckless killers don't live long.

Wenyuan Pavilion.

An official entered the Wenyuan Pavilion and whispered a few words in the ear of Chen Yu, the Junior Grand Master of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices.

Chen Yu's face showed surprise, and he waved to the clerk.

The official bowed and then withdrew.

After pondering for a moment, Chen Yu walked into the Wenyuan Pavilion.

Soon, Chen Yu entered a spacious and bright room in the Wenyuan Pavilion. He bowed to Yang Yan, the Grand Secretary, and others who were handling affairs and said, "Reporting to the Grand Secretaries, there is more news about Chu Xiu."

"Oh?"

"Tell me what it is."

Yang Yan raised his head and said with a smile.

Dugu Tai and the others also turned their gazes toward Chen Yu.

To be honest, although Chu Xiu was, to some extent, digging up the roots of the aristocratic families.

However, these people hoped that Chu Xiu could hold on a little longer and not die at the hands of the Wang family of Taiyuan so soon.

After all, the longer Chu Xiu persisted and the more amazing his performance, the greater the loss for the Wang family of Taiyuan.

The reputation of the Wang family of Taiyuan alone will inevitably be greatly affected.
