After Changsun Ming left, Chen Tang continued his cultivation at Xiping Temple.
A month later, with the help of the "Bone Marrow Cleansing Scripture," he achieved great success in bloodline transformation.
One step further, and he would be able to completely transform his bloodline, reaching the Sixth Grade Extreme Realm!
The bloodline within Chen Tang's body had become extremely pure, from flesh, muscles, and bones to marrow and bloodline, already displaying some characteristics of a Glazed Body.
He was just one step away from achieving a body as clear as glazed glass, bright inside and out!
Chen Tang could clearly feel that as his body continued to undergo bloodline transformation, his strength was still constantly rising.
Having cultivated to the step of bloodline transformation, most of the potential of his physical body had already been unleashed!
The bloodline connects the limbs and bones, the internal organs.
A pure bloodline leads to a strong and healthy body, free from illness.
On this day, according to his usual practice, Chen Tang went to Xinping Zen Temple to have a meal.
A Little Novice Monk approached and handed Chen Tang three letters, saying they were for him.
"For me?"
Chen Tang was a bit surprised and took the letters for a look.
The first letter was addressed to Ming Jing.
Chen Tang opened the envelope and glanced at the letter inside.
"Chen Tang, I know it's you!"
From the tone of the beginning, Chen Tang guessed it was from Yuan Qingmu.
He glanced at the signature at the end.
——Your cousin.
Chen Tang had assumed the name Ming Jing and caused quite a stir at Xinping Zen Temple, but it wasn't a big deal, and it didn't make much noise.
However, it wasn't surprising that the Vermilion Bird Bureau, which oversaw intelligence throughout the nation, knew about it.
The letter didn't mention much, just some trivial matters about her return to the Capital City and her life afterwards.
It also contained some complaints about the current Emperor urging her to get married, and finally asked if he wanted to come to the Capital.
Chen Tang chuckled and looked at the second letter.
To Junior Brother Ming Jing, personally.
The second letter should be from Senior Brother Ming Yuan.
Chen Tang opened it for a look.
Ming Yuan didn't engage in much small talk, just said he encountered a trouble in the Capital and wanted him to come to help.
The specifics weren't mentioned in the letter.
Nor did it mention how to find him once he was in the Capital.
Chen Tang furrowed his brow slightly.
Given Senior Brother Ming Yuan's character, he wouldn't have asked for help unless he had encountered something really difficult.
Should he go to the Capital for a look?
Chen Tang was a bit tempted.
Recently, he had been so restless and originally planned to descend the mountain.
Eating vegetarian food every day on the mountain without a hint of meat, his mouth had nearly gone bland.
Chen Tang picked up the third letter, opened it for a glance, and his face gradually turned somber.
This letter was from Yuan Qingmo.
The contents of the letter were simple, just one thing.
Changsun Ming had been seriously injured by a genius young man from the Barbarian Land, and he was asked to come to the Capital to help!
Upon seeing this letter, Chen Tang hesitated no longer and got up to leave.
Chen Tang first returned to Xiping Temple and bid farewell to Master Le Kong.
Then he descended the mountain, heading to a valley at the edge of the mountain.
Since the last time Lu Qing had brought him there, this was Chen Tang's first visit to this gorge.
Since that night, the Evil Emperor had no hostility towards him.
Otherwise, he wouldn't dare to come.
Outside a few thatched huts, there was a man who looked like a farmer, dressed in a short shirt, farming under the blazing sun.
Upon seeing Chen Tang, the farmer put down his hoe and asked loudly, "Young man, who are you looking for?"
This farmer's eyes were restrained, with no sweat on him while working outside, obviously possessing strong Inner Strength.
He had heard Lu Qing mention that she had an uncle, could this be him?
"Senior, my name is Chen Tang, I'm looking for Lu Qing."
Chen Tang cupped his hands and said.
"Oh."
The farmer nodded and said, "Qing'er went to the back of the mountain to cultivate with her aunt, they should be back soon, you may wait here."
"Alright."
Chen Tang then stood aside, occasionally glancing at the farming man.
"Senior, are you Lu Qing's uncle?"
Chen Tang asked.
"Yes."
The man nodded at Chen Tang, his face showing an honest and simple smile, then turned back to continue farming, appearing rather reticent.
This uncle seemed quite normal, unlike that maniacal Evil Emperor.
Chen Tang thought to himself.
It didn't take long before Lu Qing returned.
"Haitang, why are you here?"
Lu Qing was pleasantly surprised to see Chen Tang, running over to ask.
Chen Tang said, "Heigou sent a letter, Changsun Ming got injured by someone, I need to go to the Capital."
"Huh?"
Lu Qing frowned and asked, "Who did it, is it serious? I'll go help too!"
She regarded Chen Tang, Changsun Ming, and Yuan Qingmo as her best friends, how could she stand idly by when she heard a friend was in trouble?
"You can't go."
The voice of the Evil Emperor came, calm yet with an undeniable force.
"Aunt!"
Lu Qing looked at the Evil Emperor with some pleading.
"No matter what you say, it's useless."
The Evil Emperor's tone was icy.
In truth, she was really worried about Lu Qing's safety.
Qian Country Capital is full of powerful people, deep as an ocean, with the Profound Celestial Sect Leader overseeing it. If Lu Qing encounters danger there, even if she intervenes, she may not be able to save her.
"It's nothing serious, you don't need to go."
Chen Tang said, "The ones who hurt him are from the Barbarian Land, I'll go to the Capital to have a look."
Barbarian Land?
Lu Qing furrowed her brows slightly.
Her father had mentioned before that Qian Country is vast, spanning east to west in Kyushu.
Northeast of Pingzhou is the Seven Cold Domain Countries.
And west of Pingzhou are Yan State, Bingzhou, and Yongzhou.
North of these three provinces are six important towns of Qian Country, guarding the borders, extremely important.
Above the six towns is a mountain range extending for ten thousand miles.
And north of the mountains is what is known as the Barbarian Land!
The people above Barbarian Land are known as the Barbarian Race, organized into six major tribes.
Also known as the Six Barbarian Tribes.
The Barbarian people are naturally stronger and grow up alongside various beasts, adept at riding, archery, and hunting.
It's said that in the Barbarian Land, some people can even tame beasts to become their mounts!
Several pieces of information flashed through Lu Qing's mind, and she looked back at the Evil Emperor.
Seeing that there was no change in expression or inclination to relent, she could only look at Chen Tang helplessly and said, "Haitang, you go on your own, be careful. Let me know if there's any news."
"No problem."
Chen Tang nodded, and after saying goodbye to Lu Qing, he descended the mountain.
Just as he arrived at the foot of the mountain, he saw shadows flitting in the woods, with over a hundred riders roaming nearby!
Chen Tang was secretly shocked.
Could it be that someone was laying an ambush nearby?
The Yuwen Family, or the Profound Celestial Sect?
Despite all these days, they still won't give up?
Seeing the unfamiliar attire and clothing of the group in the woods, Chen Tang couldn't discern their origins.
Not daring to act rashly, Chen Tang was about to retreat back up the mountain.
Then, from the woods, a rider came out, slightly cupping his fist towards Chen Tang's direction and loudly said, "I am Taishi Qu, Marshal of the Qilin Bureau, under the orders of Prince Wei, here to escort Chen Tang's brother to the Capital!"
"Oh?"
Chen Tang was slightly taken aback.
Heigou's people?
Even so, Chen Tang still did not act hastily and asked, "How did you know when I'd come down the mountain?"
Taishi Qu said in a calm voice, "Prince Wei said that once you saw the letter, you would descend the mountain immediately. He worried you might encounter an accident on the way, so he sent us here."
"He is indeed Prince Wei's man."
At this moment, a voice came from not far away.
Chen Tang looked towards the sound.
He saw several women standing there, the leader being Zong Zhulan, the Marshal of the Vermilion Bird Bureau who had appeared in Mist Rain Village.
Behind her, also stood the Captain, Yan Qi, who had helped him before.
