131: Chapter 131 Soul Traveling Technique

Lingzhou City.

Inside a small courtyard within a large mansion.

Accompanied by a faint mechanical sound, a figure darted out from the dry well in the small courtyard.

If Chen Hu were here, he would certainly recognize that this figure was none other than Princess Yang Xianer, who had escaped from his hands.

This was because Princess Yang Xianer had mistakenly taken the transformed Chen Hu for someone from the Great Yong Court.

Even after escaping from Chen Hu, she did not return directly to Lingzhou City.

Instead, she took a roundabout route for several days, and only after confirming that no one was following her did she quietly return to Lingzhou City.

She also had a public identity within Lingzhou City.

Her public identity was that of the illegitimate daughter of a retired fifth-rank official.

With this "official status," and the fact that she was a nobody, no one had suspected her of the multiple assassination attempts on the Lingzhou Governor.

Soon.

Princess Yang Xianer returned to the courtyard where she resided.

With the help of her maid, she bathed and groomed herself.

She began to ponder once again.

Her trip to Linjiang Prefecture with Uncle Fu was commissioned by her eldest brother to help inspect how the Money Gang was developing in various Prefecture Cities.

Besides her eldest brother, only a few of his trusted aides knew about it.

Her eldest brother's trusted aides were all loyal to their family and could not possibly have betrayed them.

As for her side, except for Uncle Fu, everyone she brought had been trained by her personally.

They were even less likely to betray her.

As for Uncle Fu, his father, grandfather, and even great-grandfather had all served the Yang family, making it even more impossible for him to betray them.

Since there could be no issues on either side.

Then where did the problem lie?

Furthermore, after she went to the dock, she did not see Uncle Fu.

So, was Uncle Fu alive or dead?

Also, she wondered if the two Mid-stage Marrow Refining Realm experts, as well as the two guards and the maid she had left in that three-section courtyard in Linjiang Prefecture, had been captured by the Great Yong Court, or if they had snuck back.

Therefore, she decided to send someone to verify.

She wrote a note, summoned a maid, and had her send it off.

About half an hour later.

A woman hurried over.

"Greetings, Your Highness!"

The woman knelt on one knee and saluted respectfully.

"Rise and answer me. Have Yang Fu and Yang Pi returned?" Princess Yang Xianer asked in a deep voice.

A look of confusion flashed in the woman's eyes, and then she said, "Your Highness, didn't they go to do tasks with you?"

"So, they haven't returned?"

Princess Yang Xianer's eyes darkened, and she said with a flickering gaze, "Immediately relocate the stronghold and activate the backup stronghold."

"Yes, this subordinate will attend to it immediately!" the woman said at once.

"Wait!"

Princess Yang Xianer shouted, "Leave one person to monitor and see if anyone goes to that stronghold. If Yang Fu or Yang Pi appear at that stronghold, report to me immediately!"

The woman was startled, thinking to herself, could Yang Fu and Yang Pi have betrayed Your Highness?

After the woman left.

Princess Yang Xianer immediately sent someone to check Uncle Fu's home.

The news received was that there was no one at Uncle Fu's home.

Immediately, she had an ominous premonition that Uncle Fu was likely in grave danger.

At the same time, she felt a deep sense of pain.

Organ Refining Realm experts were not cabbages.

She only had Uncle Fu as an Organ Refining Realm expert on her side.

For a moment, she began to ponder again who exactly had leaked her whereabouts.

Neither her side nor her eldest brother's side could have leaked it.

"Could it be him?"

The face of Wang Quan flashed through Princess Yang Xianer's mind.

But Wang Quan had no reason to betray her.

After all, Wang Quan's parents, grandfather, and even his wife and children were still with her eldest brother.

If Wang Quan betrayed her, wouldn't that mean he was sending his whole family to their deaths?

Although she did not want to believe that Wang Quan had betrayed her.

She still decided to send someone to investigate.

Therefore, she issued another order, and a Bone Refining Realm expert skilled in disguise quietly left Lingzhou City and headed towards Linjiang Prefecture.

Time flew by until evening.

Just as Chen Hu arrived in front of his house, he found Widow Wang standing at the door waiting for his return, her eyes filled with joy, for she already knew that Chen Hu was preparing to take a concubine.

Chen Hu stepped forward, put his arm around her waist, and they entered the house together.

Widow Wang leaned her body against Chen Hu.

After dinner.

While massaging Chen Hu's shoulders, Widow Wang asked, "Brother Hu, do you think I should go home and stay for a few days?"

Chen Hu said, "I have already found someone to check the auspicious dates. On the fifteenth of this month, I will take you in as a concubine. You just need to go home and stay for one night on the fourteenth."

"Alright, I will listen to you."

Time flew by again until the early morning.

All cards had been refreshed.

Chen Hu gently pushed away Widow Wang, who was clinging to him.

He went to the study in the middle courtyard.

First, he opened all the material cards.

Then he opened the items.

Next, he activated the intelligence card.

Today's intelligence: Tomorrow, the Young Marquis of Marquis Weiwu will arrive in Linjiang Prefecture.

"What the hell?"

Seeing the intelligence revealed today, Chen Hu felt it was a bit nonsensical.

However, he still planned to go and investigate tomorrow to see what exactly was going on with this Young Marquis of Marquis Weiwu.

Because the intelligence card would not reveal such a piece of information for no reason.

Next, Chen Hu activated the connection card.

He obtained a Grade A connection.

Chen Hu's eyes lit up.

He used it decisively.

Then, he used the identity card.

He got the identity of a Flesh Refining Realm Martial Artist, which Chen Hu directly discarded.

The critical part came.

Chen Hu took out the martial arts cultivation card.

He silently recited to activate it.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining 70 days of cultivation!"

"Not bad!"

"Use it!"

The next moment, 70 days of cultivation appeared within Chen Hu's body.

And it automatically opened new bone apertures on his skull.

Soon.

The new bone apertures were opened, and after injecting internal Qi into them.

Only half of the 70 days of cultivation was consumed.

The remaining cultivation was divided into several streams, filling up the internal Qi consumed in the other bone apertures.

With about one-tenth of the internal Qi remaining, it surged directly into Chen Hu's Dantian.

After the saturated internal Qi was injected with the new internal Qi, it automatically compressed.

Once compressed, his internal Qi became even purer.

He put away the martial arts cultivation card.

Chen Hu then took out the alchemy card and the medicinal ingredients for the soul nourishing pill.

Soon, a new batch of soul nourishing pills was produced.

He took out the cultivation multiplier card.

"Activate!"

"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining a six-fold cultivation effect!"

"Not bad!"

After taking a soul nourishing pill, Chen Hu began to Cultivate the Spirit Refining Art.

One hour later.

Cultivation ended.

He claimed the cultivation results.

The pure Soul Power was injected into his Divine Soul and absorbed into the pill at the Dantian of his Divine Soul.

After the pill absorbed that Soul Power, Chen Hu faintly felt that his Divine Soul Realm was about to break through to the Middle Stage of the Divine Soul.

Subsequently, Chen Hu began to comprehend Soul Wandering.

Time flew by until daybreak.

Soul Wandering had been successfully cultivated.

Chen Hu tried to use Soul Wandering, and suddenly, he felt his Divine Soul break through the lock of his Sea of Consciousness, followed by detaching from his Physical Body and appearing in the air of the study.

With a thought.

The wandering soul passed directly through the wall and disappeared from the study.

The next moment, Chen Hu's Divine Soul appeared directly above the three-section courtyard.

Soon, his Divine Soul flew around the entire Prefecture City.

Then it returned to the study at home, dived into his Physical Body, and returned to the Sea of Consciousness.

"This feeling is truly wonderful!"

Chen Hu muttered to himself, but his expression immediately turned solemn again.

After the Divine Soul left the body, his Physical Body became a shell without thoughts.

If someone were to kill him at this moment, he would have no power to resist.

Therefore, when using Soul Wandering, he had to find a safe place to hide his Physical Body.

Otherwise, if someone destroyed his Physical Body while he was using Soul Wandering, he would have nowhere to cry.
