228: Chapter 227 Installing the Teleportation Stone

Half a month later, Qin Changsheng's figure appeared within Beihai Prefecture.

This time, Qin Changsheng had come to Beihai Prefecture to bury the Teleportation Stone in the Ancestral Hall and then search for Zhang Han's whereabouts.

As long as the Teleportation Stone was buried here, Qin Changsheng would have one more retreat path.

However, just after stepping into Beihai Prefecture, he sensed something unusual.

Because he discovered that there were suddenly many more Martial Forest figures within Beihai Prefecture.

Moreover, they were all gathering around the Jingfeng Escort Agency.

Each of them wore a grave expression, held weapons, and spoke in low voices, their eyes darting toward the inside of the escort agency from time to time, revealing a hint of malice and caution.

Qin Changsheng moved, directly entering the Jingfeng Escort Agency.

Inside the escort agency, the usual order was gone; fragments of weapons were scattered in the courtyard, and undried bloodstains remained on the ground. Several Disciples of the escort agency were patrolling back and forth with nervous expressions, their demeanor full of vigilance and panic.

Qin Changsheng walked quickly toward the main hall of the escort agency.

Just as he reached the entrance of the main hall, he saw Head Escort Lin Xiao sitting in the main seat with a look of worry.

Qin Ping'an's expression was equally anxious, and the two were whispering about something, the atmosphere oppressive to the extreme.

Qin Ping'an looked at Head Escort Lin Xiao, "Father-in-law, do you think we should first retreat into the Ancestral Hall? If we can hold out this time, we can make other plans."

Upon hearing this, Head Escort Lin Xiao nodded slowly, his tone heavy: "Currently, the only option is to retreat into the Ancestral Hall first. That Immortal's methods are strange, and we are simply no match for him. Rather than sitting and waiting for death, it is better to temporarily retreat and defend the Ancestral Hall."

As soon as the words fell, Qin Changsheng's figure walked in from outside: "Everything is fine, why do you need to retreat into the Ancestral Hall?"

Both Qin Ping'an and Head Escort Lin Xiao were startled and turned their heads abruptly, only to see Qin Changsheng standing at the hall entrance.

The moment they saw clearly that the person was Qin Changsheng, the gravity and anxiety in their eyes instantly dissipated, replaced by undisguised joy, as if they had seen hope in a desperate situation.

Head Escort Lin Xiao stood up excitedly, walked up quickly, bowed respectfully to Qin Changsheng, and said in an earnest tone: "Greetings, Immortal Qin!"

He had long witnessed Qin Changsheng's formidable strength, and seeing Qin Changsheng at this moment, the panic in his heart immediately settled by more than half.

Qin Ping'an also hurriedly stood up and walked quickly to Qin Changsheng: "Brother, you've come at just the right time!"

"What happened?" Qin Changsheng asked.

"Brother, our Jingfeng Escort Agency has truly caused a big disaster this time. We accidentally offended an Immortal. That Immortal was furious and declared that in ten days, he would come personally to wipe out our entire Jingfeng Escort Agency!"

Qin Changsheng's expression shifted slightly upon hearing this, and he asked calmly: "Oh? An Immortal? Do you know the cultivation level of this Immortal? Can he fly on a Flying Sword?"

In the Cultivator world, whether one can fly on a Flying Sword is the key to judging a Cultivator's cultivation level. Only Cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Stage and above can control a Flying Sword to fly; even with the aid of a Magical Artifact, Qi Refinement Stage Cultivators can hardly achieve true flight.

Qin Ping'an shook his head hurriedly, recalled carefully, and said truthfully: "I don't know his specific cultivation level, but that Immortal never flies on a Flying Sword when he goes out. He always rides in a luxurious carriage, followed by several attendants. He certainly looks quite imposing."

Hearing this, Qin Changsheng had few concerns left.

If he cannot fly on a Flying Sword, it means the other party's cultivation is at most the Qi Refinement Stage.

Such a cultivation level, for him, was merely something to be extinguished with a wave of his hand, not worthy of fear at all.

He looked at the anxious Qin Ping'an and Head Escort Lin Xiao and said slowly: "Don't worry, in ten days, with me here, the Jingfeng Escort Agency will be fine."

"Thank you, Immortal!" Head Escort Lin Xiao's face was full of joy.

At this moment, he no longer had any worries.

With Qin Changsheng sitting here, the Immortal threatening them was not worth worrying about at all.

"By the way, Immortal, that Immortal is missing an arm!" Head Escort Lin Xiao seemed to recall something.

"Missing an arm?" Hearing this sentence, Qin Changsheng disregarded those Immortals even more.

There are many Medicinal Pills in the Cultivator world that can restore arms.

And those Medicinal Pills are worthless.

Yet that Immortal did not even have the money to buy Medicinal Pills.

...

At night.

Qin Changsheng's figure appeared outside the Ancestral Hall.

A simple and unadorned plaque hung on the main gate of the Ancestral Hall, with the four vigorous and powerful characters "Qin Family Ancestral Hall" engraved on it. The surrounding area was surrounded by a faint scent of incense, revealing a sense of weight and solemnity.

His core purpose for coming to Beihai Prefecture this time was to install the second Teleportation Stone.

The Teleportation Stone was his retreat path; only by installing it properly could he deal with the subsequent Qingyun Ranking and Core Formation matters without any scruples.

Stepping into the Ancestral Hall, he saw the memorial tablets of Father Qin and Mother Qin enshrined in the hall, with fresh offerings and incense placed on the altar, the smoke curling and rising slowly.

Qin Changsheng first offered two sticks of incense before walking toward the side hall.

Qin Changsheng planned to place this Teleportation Stone in the side hall.

It was quieter here and not easily noticed by outsiders, making it an excellent place to install the Teleportation Stone.

He did not delay too much. With a flick of his wrist, a palm-sized, pitch-black Teleportation Stone emitting spatial fluctuations appeared in his palm.

He waved his hand lightly, and a wisp of Spiritual Qi burst forth quietly, turning into an invisible shovel, gently digging the ground.

The soil fell with a rustle, and soon a half-foot-deep pit was dug, sized just right to accommodate the Teleportation Stone in his hand.

Qin Changsheng carefully placed the Teleportation Stone into the pit, moved his hand again, and the surrounding soil slowly backfilled, completely burying the Teleportation Stone. He then used Spiritual Qi to smooth the ground, leaving no trace of burial, as if the place had never been touched.

After finishing all this, Qin Changsheng let out a long sigh of relief.

With this Teleportation Stone, Qin Changsheng had one more escape route.

If he encountered any danger in the future, Qin Changsheng could directly return to Beihai Prefecture to escape the danger.

Qin Changsheng's gaze turned to the attribute panel.

In the next instant, the Heavenly Dao Trait Intelligence floated slowly in front of Qin Changsheng.

[millennium warm jade: Isolates external interference, gathers Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi]

[Holder: Zhang Han]

[Location: Great Wei Capital]

[Acquired: Zhang Han obtained it from a certain ruin!]

"Great Wei Capital!" Seeing that Zhang Han was in the Great Wei Capital, Qin Changsheng decided to wait until ten days later, solve the Immortal threatening the Qin Family, and then go to the capital to find Zhang Han.

...

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

During these ten days, more and more Martial Forest experts came to Beihai Prefecture.

They came to Beihai to witness the demeanor of the Immortal.

And to snatch the Opportunity of the Jingfeng Escort Agency.

After that Immortal killed Head Escort Lin Xiao, he naturally would not look down on Head Escort Lin Xiao's Cultivation Technique, Secret Manual, weapons, or silver.

These Cultivation Techniques and Secret Manuals were their Opportunities.

At noon, an extremely luxurious carriage slowly drove into the prefecture, instantly attracting everyone's gaze.

The carriage was pulled by four snow-white horses. The carriage body was gilded and inlaid with various gemstones. As the sunlight shone down, it shimmered with brilliant colors.

On both sides of the carriage, more than a dozen Martial Forest experts in fitted outfits followed, each with a tall and straight figure, fierce Aura, and sharp weapons in hand.

These Martial Forest experts were all top experts in Northern Wei. Usually, they each held their own ground, but now they gathered together, willing to act as guards for the carriage, obviously coming for the identity of the carriage owner.

The luxurious carriage moved forward, not fast, but with an unstoppable Aura. Wherever it passed, pedestrians retreated one after another, not daring to block it in the slightest.

What was even more startling was that as the carriage drove along, more and more Martial Forest experts walked out from both sides of the street, silently following behind the carriage. The number gradually increased, and in the blink of an eye, dozens of people had gathered.

"Did you see that? That is the Immortal's carriage; it is truly imposing!"

"I heard that this Immortal has heaven-reaching methods and can kill Martial Forest experts with a wave of his hand. The Jingfeng Escort Agency is truly finished this time."

"Isn't that so! The Lin family has operated the Jingfeng Escort Agency for generations and has some reputation in Beihai Prefecture, but they just had to offend an Immortal!"

"Don't even talk about just one Jingfeng Escort Agency; even the entire Beihai Prefecture cannot withstand the Immortal's anger!"

"Sigh, it's a pity for the Jingfeng Escort Agency. They usually act fairly, but now they are going to be wiped out. This is the consequence of offending an Immortal! After today, there will be no more Jingfeng Escort Agency in Beihai Prefecture."

The discussions rose and fell one after another. The Martial Forest experts following the carriage became more and more numerous, the team became increasingly huge, and they marched forward mightily, heading straight toward the Jingfeng Escort Agency, with an aggressive Aura, blocking the entire street tightly.
