Chapter 144 Immortal Master! Come! Tell me! Why can't eunuchs cultivate immortality?
The immortal masters of Changchun Sect are very strict in selecting promising young immortals.
From morning to afternoon, not a single one passed.
It was near dusk, close to the hour of You (5-7 PM).
The selection of seedlings was completed hastily.
Under the escort of Commander Ma of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, the Changchun Sect disciple returned to the capital!
Chen Fan was not in a hurry when he saw this.
After observing for a day, he could easily see that the Changchun Sect's standards for selecting promising young talents seemed to have risen considerably this time.
Moreover, that disciple remained indifferent throughout, which didn't seem like he was there to select disciples!
It's more like they're just going through the motions!
Amidst a multitude of thoughts, a glint of light appeared in Chen Fan's eyes.
He glanced in the direction of the palace, then hid nearby.
At the same time, his divine sense covered the entire Meridian Gate like a spider web!
As soon as that immortal master appears, he will definitely be able to sense it immediately.
……
An hour later, in the North Garden of the Imperial Palace.
Master Ren, who had been hiding, was drinking alone in this place.
With the concealment formation protecting him, he had no fear of being discovered by the Changchun Sect members.
Not long after, a member of the Imperial Guard strode in.
"Reporting to the Imperial Preceptor, that immortal master has left the Meridian Gate..."
Upon hearing the report.
A hint of disdain flashed in Master Ren's eyes.
He slowly rose and sneered:
"Those guys from the Changchun Sect are so arrogant. On the surface, they're sending someone to the capital to recruit disciples, but secretly they're sending someone to observe the royal family's movements... Utterly laughable... I understand, you may leave!"
Yes!
After the people left, Beiyuan returned to quiet.
Master Ren, who was in no hurry to remove the concealment formation, shook his head inwardly and returned to the table to drink.
Judging from the Changchun Sect's many cunning schemes, their visit to the Great Yuan Imperial City was likely to investigate their true intentions and prevent a repeat of the disaster that occurred during the reign of Emperor Jianwen.
Ever since that immortal master suddenly arrived yesterday, he was so frightened that he quickly concealed all the imperial city's formations.
If it weren't for his quick reflexes, Master Ren would have thought that the royal family would be forced to start a war sooner than expected!
Furthermore, the Changchun Sect disciple had been seen moving around the palace at night on several occasions, and his purpose was self-evident.
Now that they're leaving in such a hurry, they must have gained nothing.
To avoid a surprise attack, Master Ren decided to remain hidden for two more days.
He wasn't in a hurry, lest he suffer a setback!
……
In front of the Meridian Gate.
As night fell, the snowflakes began to fall heavier and heavier.
They covered the ground like silver.
There are still many people out having fun at this time, some drinking and enjoying themselves, and others strolling through the night market.
People come and go, and the imperial city is full of life!
In a noodle shop near the Meridian Gate on Chang'an Avenue.
Chen Fan stayed here.
He was eating a bowl of steaming vegetarian noodles on the table.
Not satisfied with that, he added some vinegar and chili peppers and mixed them together.
After eating a couple of bites of noodles, he took a sip of soup.
On this snowy day, Chen Fan ate with great relish.
As he was enjoying the delicious food, he suddenly frowned.
Under Chen Fan's divine sense.
A royal carriage emerged from the Meridian Gate and sped towards the city gate!
The person sitting in the car was none other than the Immortal Master of the Changchun Sect!
Chen Fan smiled and then finished the noodles and soup.
Having eaten and drunk his fill, he called out:
"Boss, the bill!"
"Sir, a bowl of plain noodles costs three copper coins. It's snowing heavily, so please take your time..."
"Yes... such heavy snow, perfect weather for sending someone on their way!" Chen Fan nodded, squinting his eyes.
He casually handed over a tael of silver and hurriedly left!
The noodle shop owner, after taking the money, quickly called out:
"Sir, that's too much..."
However, the shop owner looked around and couldn't find the person who had just been eating noodles anywhere on the street...
Leave the imperial city.
Chen Fan sped through the snow!
Sixty feet away from his divine sense, the royal carriage was slowly moving forward.
Chen Fan followed cautiously, keeping a certain distance.
About half an hour later.
At the hour of Xu (7-9 PM), the carriage stopped.
The Changchun Sect disciple with the indifferent expression got out of the car!
After looking around, he sped off into the dense forest ahead!
The royal carriage turned back!
Not long after entering the dense forest.
The disciples of Changchun Sect immediately sensed that something was wrong ahead.
With a furrowed brow, he subconsciously pulled a longsword from his storage bag!
At the same time, he used his divine sense to cover the area in front of him and went on his way.
After confirming that they saw no danger, the Changchun Sect disciples continued forward!
But I don't know why.
The more he walked, the more he felt inexplicably that there was a pair of eyes watching him.
That feeling of panic made the Changchun Sect disciples shout:
"Ling Huanzi, the eighth-generation disciple of the Changchun Sect... May I ask who you are and why you are following me...?"
The words had barely left his mouth!
Silence reigned!
Upon seeing this, Ling Huanzi frowned.
With his longsword radiating sword energy, he began to look around.
Looking around, the snow-covered forest was completely silent.
As the snow fell heavier and heavier, the place gradually turned into a white world!
Even the top of Ling Huanzi's head was covered with a thin layer of snow!
After observing for a moment with an indifferent look in his eyes, he immediately turned around and ran towards the imperial city without looking back!
Thirty zhang!
Twenty zhang!
Ten zhang!
……
Just as Ling Huanzi was about to rush out of the woods, a figure dressed in a eunuch's robe suddenly appeared in front of him!
It was Chen Fan!
With a smile on his face, he squinted and said:
"Immortal Master...it's been a long time!"
"Eunuch..." Ling Huanzi's pupils contracted slightly, his face filled with disbelief.
"That divine consciousness just now was yours..."
Chen Fan smiled but remained silent.
With his hands tucked into his sleeves, he let the snowflakes fall on him.
Upon seeing this, Ling Huanzi frowned!
He thought that as soon as he stepped into this forest, he sensed a divine consciousness here that was even stronger than his own.
Even after the name of Changchun Sect was revealed, the other party showed no intention of withdrawing.
Thinking that Ling Huanzi was an enemy of the eight major sects, his first thought was to return to the capital to hide.
Who knew that after all that, the person turned out to be a eunuch.
After calming down slightly, Ling Huanzi's thoughts raced, and he immediately questioned in a cold voice:
"Judging by your attire, you must be from the royal family? The sect has explicitly forbids cultivating immortality, yet you've disobeyed them. You're truly ignorant and arrogant bastards..."
A lowly bastard?
Chen Fan squinted and shook his head slightly.
He glanced at the immortal master whose mouth was a little dirty, then took a step forward!
Snapped!
So fast that Ling Huanzi didn't even have time to react before he was slapped across the face!
"You...you dare hit me! How dare you...you lowly eunuch!"
clap clap clap!
Before Ling Huanzi could even utter two curses, Chen Fan, moving with the speed of a ghost, slapped him several more times!
That crisp sound echoed through the forest!
Ling Huanzi was also instantly stunned!
Looking at the terrifyingly powerful dead eunuch before him, he exclaimed excitedly:
"I am a disciple of the Changchun Sect. If you dare to hit me... your Great Abyss is finished!"
boom!
But what happened next!
Chen Fan kicked again!
Ling Huanzi, who was caught off guard, was stunned and was instantly kicked ten feet away, crashing into more than ten large trees!
The loud impact startled a flock of birds into flight!
Amidst the swirling snowflakes, Chen Fan approached step by step and said:
"Immortal Master, tell me, why can't eunuchs cultivate immortality?"
