Chapter 1143: Chapter 497: Returning Home in Splendor [8000-word Mega Chapter, Subscription Requested]_2

According to the investigations of Tianzhi Tower, Yu Jinghua, under the disguise named Hua Feng, appeared in the Great Zhou Kingdom more than sixty years ago.

More than fifty years ago, Hua Feng joined a mid-level sect called Commanding Spirit Sect in Great Zhou Kingdom with a few trusted disciples and became an Elder of the Commanding Spirit Sect.

Over twenty years ago, Hua Feng’s cultivation level broke through to the Golden Core Middle Stage, leaping to the third highest rank in the Commanding Spirit Sect, thereby stabilizing his position as an Elder of the sect.

The gate of the Commanding Spirit Sect is located more than two thousand li from Xuanqing Marketplace, which is why Zhou Chun happened to bump into him there.

Additionally, it is worth mentioning that the Commanding Spirit Sect is also adept at the Beast Taming Technique, and although it has never produced a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, the sect’s inheritance has always been very stable. It could be said that there are always Golden Core Stage Cultivators in succession, with several Fourth Order Magical Beasts left behind by the ancestry to guard the sect.

The reason why Yu Jinghua, known under the alias of Hua Feng, was able to join the Commanding Spirit Sect and become one of its Elders, was most likely through the betrayal of the Zhou Family’s guarded Beast Taming Secret Technique.

And that Commanding Spirit Sect must surely be aware of Yu Jinghua’s true identity and origins!

"This Commanding Spirit Sect truly has quite the audacity. Even if they do not fear the Zhou Family, do they not fear Tianjing True Person either? Or is it possible, that behind them, they also have the protection of a Nascent Soul Stage True Person?"

Zhou Chun’s expression was gloomy as he looked at the intelligence reports in his hands, feeling a surge of hatred towards the Commanding Spirit Sect for taking in Yu Jinghua.

As the Clan Leader of the Zhou Family and the only member of the family in the Golden Core Stage, he naturally needed to dedicate himself to protecting the lineage of the Zhou Family.

The fact that the Commanding Spirit Sect knowingly accepted the Beast Taming Secret Technique, clearly a closely guarded secret of the Zhou Family, and chose to accept it, was in itself an insult and a form of contempt to the Zhou Family.

Had it been one of the large sects, which force would dare to steal the fundamental inheritance of their sect – they would undoubtedly fight to the death over it!

But now, with the Zhou Family’s power greatly inferior to that of the Commanding Spirit Sect, this grievance could only be recorded for the time being.

Zhou Chun soon calmed his mind, put away the information, and went to the cave dwelling of Luo Qingni.

At this time, Luo Qingni had indeed completely refined that Dharma Treasure Pill Furnace and had already fired it up for alchemy twice.

Upon learning of Zhou Chun’s intention, she immediately said, "Taoist Friend Zhou, your timing is perfect. Next, Qingni plans to concoct another batch of Elixirs suitable for a Purple Mansion Phase Cultivator. If the concoction goes well, I can proceed to refine the Holy Spirit Blood Pill."

"That would be the best outcome."

Zhou Chun nodded, then stayed inside Luo Qingni’s cave dwelling.

Nowadays, he doesn’t need to meditate to cultivate and increase his Mana; he spends his daily cultivation time practicing the Heart Lotus Orthodox Method and the secret techniques "Soul Control Technique" and "Slaying God Technique."

Therefore, even if he cultivates inside Luo Qingni’s cave dwelling, he will not compete with her for the Spiritual Energy.

...

Commanding Spirit Sect.

That day, Yu Jinghua suddenly received a summons from the Great Elder of Commanding Spirit Sect asking him to pay a visit.

After receiving the summons, he promptly left his cave dwelling to see the Great Elder.

"Great Elder, you have summoned me. May I know your instructions?"

In the cave dwelling, Yu Jinghua performed a salute to the Great Elder of Commanding Spirit Sect before directly asking the purpose of calling him over.

As both were Golden Core Stage Cultivators, even though the Great Elder is at the pinnacle of Golden Elixir Perfection, on the brink of Nascent Soul Formation, Yu Jinghua need not be too humble. Such an interaction held no issues.

The Great Elder obviously wouldn’t mind these formalities either.

After hearing his question, the Great Elder looked at him and said, "I have received news that Tianzhi Tower’s people have been investigating your background recently. Have you offended anyone lately?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Jinghua’s expression changed instantly.

No wonder he reacted like that; anyone would be disturbed to learn of inquiries into their background.

All the more so since he had a guilty past.

But since the Great Elder in front of him also knew his details, after his expression fluctuated for a moment, he shook his head and said, "Lately, I have been cultivating within our sect. I occasionally go out to purchase some cultivation resources, but I have not offended anyone!"

Seeing his reaction, the Commanding Spirit Sect’s Great Elder well understood his concerns and thus reassured him, "You need not panic. Tianzhi Tower usually collects high-level Cultivators’ intelligence as important merchandise for sale. Perhaps this time it’s just part of their routine activities or maybe it’s the work of one of our old rivals of Commanding Spirit Sect. It might not necessarily be related to that incident of yours!"

"Anyhow, don’t go out for the time being. Stay and cultivate in seclusion in the sect for a decade or two to avoid the limelight!"

Listening to his words, it seemed that Yu Jinghua could be completely safe as long as he stayed within the gate of Commanding Spirit Sect.

And after hearing his words, Yu Jinghua also quickly nodded and replied, "The Great Elder’s advice is very wise. Then, I will enter seclusion and cultivate quietly for a while."

But even though he made this decision, once he returned to his cave dwelling, Yu Jinghua’s heart was still filled with unease.

He knew all too well how egregious his past actions were, so for years, he had been extra cautious and kept a very low profile.

Even when he had a breakthrough to the Golden Core Middle Stage a few years ago, he only celebrated within the Commanding Spirit Sect without inviting other Golden Core Stage Cultivators to congratulate him.

In his interactions with other Golden Core Stage Cultivators, he always kept it superficial, not daring to get too close for fear that his real identity would be discovered and he would be betrayed for benefits.

So now, upon hearing that Tianzhi Tower was investigating him, his heart couldn’t help but be filled with panic.
