32: Three pieces of intelligence!

Late at night!

A notification from the System sounded in Chen Xian's mind.

【Ding! Today's information has been reorganized!】

【Today's Information 1: The Demonic Cultivators are in the underground palace of Jubei City's Pill Refining Pavilion; most likely, they are hiding there!】

By the candlelight, Chen Xian narrowed his eyes.

The Demonic Cultivators are hiding down there!

It seems they want to hide in plain sight.

The Cultivators of Jubei City are desperately searching for the Demonic Cultivators to avenge Lin Xiangzhong. Most likely, none of them would have thought they were right under the Pill Refining Pavilion, right?

However, if they are hiding there, how has no one noticed?

As far as he knew...

Those Alchemists in the Pill Refining Pavilion aren't exactly useless.

Chen Xian felt puzzled and continued reading.

【Today's Information 2: Lin Xiangzhong is a Demonic Cultivator mole. At tonight's banquet, he will distribute Medicinal Pills that suppress cultivation strength to everyone, calling them Qi-Assisting Pills, in an attempt to coordinate with the Demonic Cultivators late at night to wipe out all the Cultivators in Jubei City!】

*Hiss!*

Lin Xiangzhong is actually a Demonic Cultivator mole!

Now Chen Xian could basically understand the first piece of information—why the Demonic Cultivators were in the underground palace of the Pill Refining Pavilion yet no one could find them.

It turns out this old fellow was playing the 'thief crying stop thief' game.

Pretending to be heavily injured by Demonic Cultivators yesterday was probably just to place himself completely on the opposite side of the Demonic Cultivators, making everyone let down their guard!

These Cultivators might even tell him if they found traces of the Demonic Cultivators.

This tactic simply played everyone like a fiddle!

Especially tonight's banquet.

Chen Xian began to feel conflicted.

To go or not to go?

To save them or not?

He wasn't exactly a good person, but he definitely wasn't a bad person either.

What should he do?

He continued reading the information below.

【Today's Information 3: Beneath the underground palace of the Pill Refining Pavilion, there is Ancient Demonic Elephant blood. Ye Wentian discovers this blood and uses it to nourish his elephant bone sword!】

When Chen Xian saw this piece of information...

He felt as if he had suddenly become illiterate.

He rubbed his eyes and continued looking at the information on the System's light screen.

Ye Wentian, elephant bone sword, Ancient Demonic Elephant blood... Putting these phrases together, he couldn't quite understand it.

In other words, Ye Wentian had a new sword.

It was also an elephant bone sword.

And he also found the Ancient Demonic Elephant blood in the underground palace to nourish his elephant bone sword?

Could it be that this kid really is some kind of incredible son of heavens chosen?

Much of the information Chen Xian had seen these past few days involved Ye Wentian picking up bargains.

He had even intercepted some of them himself.

Otherwise, he really would have let him show off.

No, he had to go to tomorrow night's banquet no matter what.

To see exactly what was going on!

Chen Xian then took out the Cultivation Technique book Li Yu had given him.

And continued to study it.

The night passed in silence!

The next morning.

Li Yu woke up early and saw that Chen Xian was actually still sitting there reading.

She walked over.

"How is it? Have you learned this Cultivation Technique?"

Chen Xian scratched his head.

"Maybe I'm a bit slow; I've only learned the basics!"

"Let me see!"

Hearing this, Chen Xian took a deep breath.

He didn't like performing for people as if he were an animal in a zoo.

But since Li Yu had provided the Cultivation Technique...

He was indebted to her.

So he put his hands together.

Following the circulation method in the technique...

A few seconds later.

A fireball appeared in front of him; although it wasn't large, it was enough to cause damage.

Seeing that Li Yu didn't say anything, Chen Xian coughed.

"Ahem, I'm quite satisfied with this, after all, it's my first time practicing!"

He thought to himself: This woman couldn't think I practiced poorly and want her money back, could she?

However, at this moment, Li Yu's heart was in turmoil.

This Fire Control Art was a Heaven Rank technique she had taken from the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion.

In terms of difficulty, she, who was at the Foundation Establishment Stage, had practiced for several years before she could master this Fire Control Art.

And yet, this man had learned it in one night?

She remembered that when she first got this Fire Control Art, it took her a full three months just to learn the basics.

Li Yu looked at Chen Xian with a strange expression.

Could it be that this guy is the legendary one-in-a-million Genius?

Chen Xian picked his nose.

"Tonight, you will go with me to the Demon Extermination Assembly. At that time, various factions from Jubei City will participate, as well as people sent from the Imperial Court."

"The person I'm arranged to marry will also be there."

"Whether we can get the spirit ginseng grass depends on your performance tonight!"

Li Yu thought Chen Xian would refuse, so she mentioned the spirit ginseng grass in advance.

The goal was to make this man step up.

But she didn't expect that as soon as she finished speaking...

Chen Xian nodded repeatedly.

"No problem!"

He agreed so readily?

Li Yu felt a bit uneasy instead.

"He might make things difficult for you then, but with me around, just don't back down!"

Chen Xian wasn't worried about that.

A person with nothing to lose has nothing to fear.

Originally, he was the heir to the Marquis of Jubei, so his every word and action had to fit his status and not bring shame to his family.

But now, he was all alone.

A lone wolf!

What was he afraid of?

On the contrary, tonight's Demon Extermination Assembly felt like an opportunity to Chen Xian.

The Medicinal Pills from the Pill Refining Pavilion, the Ancient Demonic Elephant blood...

These were all things he needed to pay attention to.

Throughout the day...

Chen Xian didn't leave his room; instead, he continuously practiced his Fire Control Art.

"Tsk, this is probably the simplest Cultivation Technique. I learned it in a single day!"

As evening approached, Chen Xian asked Li Yu.

Li Yu: "..."

"You've already learned this Fire Control Art?"

Chen Xian snapped his fingers.

*Click!*

A flame appeared on his hand, beating wildly like a heart.

Li Yu's right eyelid twitched wildly.

This heir to the Marquis of Jubei was not the idiot everyone thought he was.

Instead, he was an unparalleled Genius.

Perhaps she had some doubts in the morning, but seeing this flame now...

It was ironclad proof!

"Alright, let's go!"

Chen Xian looked back at Da Huang and Zhou Duoer.

"You two stay here!"

He took out a pile of Spirit Stones and threw them in front of Da Huang.

"Keep an eye on her!"

Before Da Huang could respond, Zhou Duoer said, "Don't worry!"

Da Huang: "???"

Chen Xian didn't bother with the person and the dog.

Instead, he walked toward the center of Jubei City with Li Yu.

"Where is the banquet tonight?"

"Your house!"

"Huh?"

"Marquis Jubeis Residence is now the location for the Demon Extermination Assembly!"

Li Yu looked at the stunned Chen Xian.

"What's wrong? Not used to suddenly going home? Or do you feel like you've let down the Chen Family's ancestors?"

Chen Xian shrugged.

"I'm just a bit surprised!"

"There are many things that will surprise you today!"

While speaking...

The two of them arrived at the Jubei Marquiss Residence.

Li Yu didn't take out an invitation; instead, she produced a jade pendant.

The moment the guards at the door saw the jade pendant, their expressions changed drastically.

They moved aside with extreme respect.

The two of them walked side by side.

However, at this time, there were two more figures behind them...
