Chapter 14: Chapter 14 - Mu Jinzhou

Bihai Dynasty, Tianjian City

Mu Family Mansion

In recent times, the powerful Mu Family has gradually weakened in comparison to the other main families in Tianjian City. It's a real shame considering that just a few years ago, when that young man was alive, the Mu Family was completely different from this decadence and could even be considered the leading family in Tianjian City.

As the neighboring city of the Heavenly Sword Sect, practically all internal affairs are related to the sect.

A few years ago, an unparalleled tianjiao emerged in the Mu Family. He was Mu Lianzhu, the rising star of the Mu Clan.

As he is part of Tianjian City, he clearly joined the Heavenly Sword Sect and, with his talent, managed to become a dazzling star who overshadowed all the sect's core disciples.

At the age of twenty-two, he had reached the peak of Soul Formation and was only one step away from the Divine Transformation Realm.

Such a high cultivation at such a young age would certainly attract the attention of the entire dynasty and even the Holy Land, but before the news spread completely, sad news broke:

The young master of the Mu Family had passed away.

Nobody knows how or why this happened, all the residents of Tianjian City only know that it is taboo and cannot be discussed casually in the streets.

Although some may have speculations in mind, no one dares to really talk about them.

Inside the Mu Family mansion, Mu Jinzhou was anxiously holding a token, as if waiting for something.

Until finally the token shook and a series of messages appeared:

But he would certainly make good use of her services before leaving!

Seeing Song Yang's impatience, Shi Hu sighed and said, "Don't worry, young master. He'll be leaving soon, after all, he needs to go to the imperial capital for the sect competition."

The title 'young master' had clearly been instructed by Song Yang beforehand. After all, it's not common for someone to be called the master of the Palace, especially when he wanted to remain 'undercover'.

"I hope it's like you said," replied Song Yang, worried. If Chu Xuanzhe didn't leave, he would have to send Shi Hu to carry out the mission alone. After all, he had promised to complete the mission within 30 days, and 28 days had already passed.

But that would also mean that he would have missed the trip and waited for 28 days for nothing, something he didn't want to accept.

In fact, the trip wasn't entirely wasted. After several days of cultivating, Song Yang has finally broken through to the royal realm and is extremely close to the intermediate stage.

What's more, even with the significant reduction in the amount of reputation points he was receiving, because apart from a few forces receiving the tokens, no one had heard any news about missions carried out by Shura Palace. Song Yang still managed to accumulate a little and has now amassed almost 30,000 points.

After opening two mysterious boxes of rare level, he received two proficiency upgrade cards and used them to advance his proficiency level in the Sea Destroyer Fist technique to the Mastery stage.

[Proficiency Upgrade Card: After using it, you can increase the proficiency level of the user's skill by +1 in any skill that is not higher than the holy level].

When he saw this, he assumed that to get an upgrade card for saint-level techniques, he could only get it from an epic-level mystery box.

"Young master, Chu Xuanzhe has left the sect, probably heading for the imperial capital," Shi Hu said something at that moment that made Song Yang's bored face show joy.

"Then let's follow him," Song Yang said. He had already ordered Shi Hu to watch the Heavenly Sword Sect with his divine conscience, just waiting for this moment.

With the help of Shi Hu's concealment, Song Yang began to follow Chu Xuanzhe easily. After all, he couldn't act near Tianjian City, where Chu Xuanzhe could easily receive reinforcements.
