246: Chapter 246 A Prodigy Appears in a Chaotic World

The Lingzhou City side has at most fifty thousand troops.

However, the scale of the Yellow Heaven Army has already exceeded three hundred thousand.

Moreover, the Yellow Heaven Army is a combination of the Yellow Heaven Sect and remnants of the previous dynasty; they are not your ordinary rebel army.

Thinking that they can wipe out the three hundred thousand Yellow Heaven rebel army with just fifty thousand Lingzhou troops is simply a pipe dream.

Exiting the identity of the little eunuch.

Chen Hu chose to continue opening cards.

He activated an enlightenment card.

Chen Hu locked onto the spell, Petrifying Art.

He silently recited "use."

He then became a child, was sent into a cultivation world, and diligently practiced this spell under the guidance of his Revered Master.

Several years later, he had practiced this spell to Perfection.

He was kicked out of that world.

After the Fusion of memories, Chen Hu had perfectly mastered this spell.

Next, Chen Hu took out the second enlightenment card and selected Spirit Sword Art to use.

Thus, Chen Hu was pulled into the cultivation world again...

Several years later.

He was kicked out of the cultivation world.

After the Fusion of memories, he also completely mastered the Spirit Sword Art.

Subsequently, he took out the martial arts cultivation card.

After activating it, he gained 100 days of cultivation.

After using it, the Protective Aura in his Dantian improved.

Afterwards, he activated a Lifespan card and gained 8 years of Lifespan.

He added it directly to himself.

He activated a soldier card and gained 200 Tier 3 soldiers.

He activated two army cards.

He gained ten thousand Tier 5 Black Armor Cavalry and ten thousand Tier 5 Great Snow Dragon Cavalry respectively.

He activated a combat Puppet Card and gained two Middle Stage Blood Refining Realm Puppets.

The next moment.

Chen Hu stood up and used the Near and Far Divine Ability to disappear from the spot.

Very quickly, Chen Hu appeared in Lingzhou City.

He took out a treasure hunting card, and after activating it, obtained a new treasure location.

After arriving at the treasure location, Chen Hu swept it with his Spiritual Sense.

Immediately, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

Because he had discovered another treasure vault, containing gold, silver, jewelry, jade, and other items worth at least 20 million taels.

Besides that, there were hundreds of precious paintings and calligraphy.

These items could not be specifically valued, but their worth was certainly not low.

"Collect!"

With a wave of his hand, Chen Hu gathered these items into his void ring.

He used Near and Far again and returned to his study at home.

He activated an animal card.

He gained 1,000 fat pigs weighing 300 catties each.

He then took out an animal upgrade card, thought for a moment, and Chen Hu locked onto a Flying Dragon to use it.

Then he activated a cultivation multiplier card.

He took out a Soul Crystal, held it in his hand, and began to Cultivate by driving the Spirit Refining Art.

In the blink of an eye, an hour passed.

The cultivation session ended; having integrated the Soul Power gained from ten times the cultivation, his Primordial Spirit had grown even stronger.

"Alright, that's it for today!"

Chen Hu used Near and Far to arrive at Liu Xiangyue's room in the backyard.

The next morning.

Chen Hu arrived at the Fierce Tiger Gang office.

Not long after, Vice Gang Leader Gao Hangzhou came looking for him.

"Gang Leader, the Baishen Cult has appeared within the Prefecture City. Should we take action to expel them?" Gao Hangzhou said with a grave expression.

"You seem to know something about this Baishen Cult?"

Chen Hu asked, then signaled for Gao Hangzhou to sit down and speak, and had a maid pour him a cup of tea.

"I won't hide it from you, Gang Leader, this subordinate is actually not a local of Linjiang Prefecture; I fled here as a refugee from Chuzhou!" Gao Hangzhou seemed to fall into his memories:

"That year, I was only eleven years old, and my family lived in a small county in Chuzhou.

Originally, the three of us lived a happy life, but unexpectedly, the Baishen Cult arrived.

At first, the Baishen Cult claimed that as long as you joined the cult, you would receive silver and grain.

Many people could not resist the temptation of silver and grain and joined the Baishen Cult.

After more and more people joined the Baishen Cult, they began to levy a 'Divine Tax' on others.

Anyone unwilling to pay the Divine Tax would encounter all sorts of accidents.

Later, the entire county had no choice but to obediently pay the tax.

However, the people of the Baishen Cult were truly too greedy, and the Divine Tax they collected became higher and higher.

Those who could not pay would be arrested.

Consequently, people began to flee that county with their families.

My parents also couldn't afford the Divine Tax, so they took me and fled in the middle of the night.

But we ended up being hunted down by the Baishen Cult.

In order to protect me and create an opportunity for me to escape, my parents chose to fight the Baishen Cult to the death.

As for me, I traveled through hardships, begging all the way until I arrived at Linjiang Prefecture, where I was taken in as a Disciple by the old Gang Leader.

After I had achieved some success in my cultivation, I sent people back to inquire about the Baishen Cult.

They said that the imperial court later sent troops and suppressed the Baishen Cult.

As for the high-ranking members of the Baishen Cult, they were all captured and beheaded!

Unexpectedly, after so many years, this Baishen Cult has actually appeared in Linjiang Prefecture.

If we let them develop, I fear Linjiang Prefecture will become just like the Immortal City in my hometown!"

After listening to Gao Hangzhou's account.

Chen Hu said thoughtfully: "In that case, you first take some men to investigate and see how many people from the Baishen Cult have come to Linjiang Prefecture. Once we have figured out their background, we will round them all up in one fell swoop!"

"Yes, this subordinate will go and do it immediately!" Gao Hangzhou said with an excited expression.

After sending Gao Hangzhou away, Chen Hu began to handle the official business of the Fierce Tiger Gang.

He had just processed half of it.

Princess Anping arrived.

"Does the Princess have business?" After inviting her to sit, Chen Hu asked directly.

"Young Master Chen, I would like to ask you for a favor!" Princess Anping said.

"Please speak!"

Princess Anping said: "I would like Young Master Chen to escort me back to the royal capital. I have some understanding of the Fifth Prince; since he sent people to assassinate me, he is determined to have me dead!

Now that the assassination has failed, there will certainly be a second wave of people coming to continue the assassination!

Guard Huang's injuries have not yet healed; I fear he will not be able to protect me!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Hu couldn't help but show a thoughtful expression.

Seeing this, Princess Anping said: "If Young Master Chen can safely escort me back to the royal capital, I will definitely reward you handsomely!"

"There is no need for a handsome reward; this is not a difficult task for me!" Chen Hu shook his head and said: "I can escort you back to the royal capital alone. As for Guard Huang, they will have to rely on themselves to get back. If you have no objections, we can set off now!"

"Alright, I will go discuss this with Guard Huang immediately!"

Princess Anping only hesitated for a second before agreeing.

The next moment, Princess Anping stood up, walked out of the office, and began to discuss it with Guard Huang.

Although Guard Huang did not want to agree, he also knew that if they relied solely on their group, they would not be able to protect the Princess.

As for Chen Hu, he had a Gang Refining Revered Master hidden in the shadows, so being escorted by Chen Hu would actually be safer.

Therefore, he still agreed.

Princess Anping returned to the office and said to Chen Hu with a smile: "Young Master Chen, Guard Huang has already agreed. When shall we set off?"

"Tell Guard Huang to go back first. Once I have finished handling the official business, I will escort you!"

"Alright!"

A quarter of an hour later.

Chen Hu had finished handling the official business.

He signaled for Princess Anping to come to his side.

Chen Hu directly wrapped his arm around Princess Anping's waist, took a step forward, and used Near and Far to disappear from the spot.

When they appeared again, they were already a thousand miles away.

He continued to take steps.

After casting Near and Far three consecutive times, he had already brought Princess Anping to the outskirts of the royal capital.

"Is that the royal capital up ahead?"

Looking at the ancient and massive royal city ahead, Princess Anping's eyes were filled with astonishment.

She clearly remembered that two breaths ago, she was still in Linjiang Prefecture.

How could they have arrived outside the royal capital in just the time of two breaths?

"Young Master Chen, what exactly is this method of yours?"

Princess Anping asked curiously, her eyes filled with admiration as she looked at Chen Hu, and the number above her head jumped twice, reaching 90 points.

"A Divine Ability, called Near and Far!"

Chen Hu smiled and said: "By the way, do you need me to take you to the imperial palace?"

"No, no need, just take me back to the Princess's residence!" Princess Anping said hurriedly.

"Wait a moment!"

Chen Hu activated the Map Navigation Card and quickly found the location of the Princess Anping's residence on it.

The next moment, he wrapped his arm around Princess Anping and disappeared from the spot again.

When they reappeared, they had already arrived at the Princess Anping's residence.
