"Can we find my sister by destroying the Poxing Sect?" Nangong Wanyue looked at the armored woman next to her and spoke slowly.

The armored woman fell silent.

Nangong Wanyue continued, "The reason I was able to come to the Southern Region this time was the result of negotiations between my father and the Cultivation Alliance. If we directly destroy a force in the Southern Region, the Cultivation Alliance will definitely intervene."

The armored woman nodded heavily: "Your Highness, I'm sorry, I was impulsive."

Nangong Wanyue withdrew her gaze from the armored woman, then looked up at the sky and fell into deep thought.

After a while, the armored woman said, "Your Highness, what should we do next?"

Nangong Wanyue thought for a moment and then said, "Let's go to the Xianbao Chamber of Commerce to investigate first. I already have some guesses in my mind, but they still need to be verified."

"Xianbao Chamber of Commerce?" The armored woman was very surprised, and then looked at Nangong Wanyue with anticipation.

Nangong Wanyue smiled faintly and then explained:

"According to what Yanshen Sect and Wangyue City said, they saw my sister chasing that mysterious monk outside Xianbao City."

"Many people think that this was just a coincidence for the people from Yanshen Sect and Wangyue City, but on that day, the people from Yanshen Sect had already set up a large air-locking formation outside Xianbao City, and they also investigated every cultivator who left Xianbao City."

"If I'm not mistaken, the reason why Yanshen Sect did this was not to deal with Wangyue City, but because of that mysterious monk."

After listening to Nangong Wanyue's words, the armored woman looked thoughtful: "Your Highness, do you mean that the intelligence given to us by Yanshen Sect is not complete, and they concealed some information?"

Nangong Wanyue nodded: "Yes, there is another piece of news that you didn't notice. That is, at the end of the auction, Gu Ran and Liu Qingqing from Yanshen Sect stopped a Jindan cultivator named Zhang Jin at the entrance of the auction and wanted to search the soul of that Jindan cultivator."

"Tell me, why would Gu Ran, a great elder of the Yanshen Sect, go out of his way to search the soul of a Jindan cultivator?"

"If my guess is correct, the Jindan cultivator named Zhang Jin is likely to have a great relationship with that mysterious cultivator."

"The only thing I can't figure out is why Yanshen Sect is looking for that mysterious monk."

The armored woman suddenly became excited: "Your Highness, let's go to Xianbao City to find that Jindan monk now!"

Nangong Wanyue nodded: "Well, let's go."

Soon, the magic ship turned into a stream of light and headed towards the direction of Xianbao City.

Xianbao City, inside the Xianbao Chamber of Commerce.

"Mr. Xie, I'm sorry to bother you so much because I have something to ask your chamber of commerce." Nangong Wanyue was sitting in the reception room of the Xianbao Chamber of Commerce.

Sitting opposite her at this moment was Mr. Xie.

Elder Xie smiled and said, "Your Highness is too polite. Our Xianbao Chamber of Commerce also has a cooperative relationship with Da Zhou. Just ask whatever you want to ask. I will tell you everything I know."

Mr. Xie was also very surprised that Nangong Wanyue came to him.

He had heard of the name of the Second Princess of the Great Zhou, but he did not expect that she would come to the Southern Region in person.

"Mr. Xie, I wonder if the cultivator named Zhang Jin is still in your chamber of commerce?" Nangong Wanyue went straight to the point and asked directly about Zhang Jin's whereabouts.

Elder Xie was stunned when he heard this: "Zhang Jin, who is this?"

Nangong Wanyue saw that Mr. Xie looked puzzled, and then said:
"After the auction ended that day, Elder Gu Ran of the Yanshen Sect wanted to search the soul of the Jindan cultivator. It was this person that Elder Xie had protected at that time. Could it be that Elder Xie had forgotten about it?"

Hearing this, Mr. Xie seemed to have remembered something, and then he showed a look of sudden realization:

"So it was him. If it wasn't for your Highness's reminder, I would have really forgotten about him. At that time, he was stopped by the people of Yanshen Sect. In order to maintain the rules of Xianbao Chamber of Commerce, I spoke up to save him. What? Could this person be related to the disappearance of the eldest princess?"

"There is indeed some connection, and I hope Mr. Xie can tell me the whereabouts of this person." Nangong Wanyue said in a low voice.

"Please wait a moment, Your Highness. I don't pay much attention to such trivial matters. I need to ask other people."

After Mr. Xie finished speaking, he took out a sound transmission talisman from his body and whispered a few words into the talisman.

The sound transmission note turned into a stream of light and disappeared.

After a while, Qu Jing came in from outside. She bowed to Mr. Xie and said, "Mr. Xie."

Elder Xie nodded, and then introduced Qu Jing, "This is the second princess of the Great Zhou, Nangong Wanyue. She came to our Chamber of Commerce today to investigate the disappearance of the eldest princess."

Qu Jing was shocked when she heard this, and quickly bowed to Nangong Wanyue: "Qu Jing greets Your Highness."

Nangong Wanyue smiled and nodded as a greeting.

Elder Xie then said, "Qu Jing, the Second Prince came here to look for a cultivator named Zhang Jin. You have been in charge of the management of cultivators from outside our Xianbao City. Do you know where this person is in the city now?"

"Zhang Jin?" Qu Jing looked surprised.

"Well, wasn't this person targeted by the people from Yanshen Sect that day? You should still remember him." Old Xie reminded with an unchanged expression.

Qu Jing immediately said, "Of course I remember this person, but he left Xianbao City a few days ago. As for where he went, I don't know."

Hearing Qu Jing's words, Nangong Wanyue frowned slightly, but quickly recovered.

At this time, Elder Xie smiled and said, "Your Highness, our Xianbao City never interferes with the entry and exit of cultivators. That person has left Xianbao City now, and we don't know his whereabouts."

Nangong Wanyue took a deep look at Mr. Xie, and then said, "In that case, I'll take my leave."

Elder Xie stood up quickly and said, "Your Highness, are you leaving now? Why don't you stay a few more days so that I can show my hospitality as a good host."

"No, I have something to do. Come back another day."

Nangong Wanyue declined Mr. Xie's repeated invitations and left with her people.

After Nangong Wanyue left, the smile on Mr. Xie's face instantly disappeared. He looked at Qu Jing and said:

"I'm afraid this woman has probably guessed something. You should inform the Xingfeng Sect about this and ask them to prepare."

Qu Jing was shocked: "Mr. Xie, Zhang Jin has already been sent out by us. Can she really find out?"

Elder Xie said in a deep voice: "Don't underestimate this girl. She is known as the most talented woman in the Great Zhou Dynasty. How can she be fooled so easily? And since she came to us to ask about Zhang Jin, she must have had some guesses."

Upon hearing this, Qu Jing's face immediately showed worry.

Elder Xie sighed, "We shouldn't have been involved in this matter. Hua Xuanzi is so bold that he even dared to arrest the eldest princess of the Great Zhou. If he wasn't related to the Xingfeng Sect, I wouldn't care about this kind of thing."

A long time ago, Mr. Xie had guessed that the disappearance of Princess Chang of the Great Zhou Dynasty was related to Hua Xuanzi.

At that time, it was Hua Xuanzi who used the VIP pass to ask them to protect Zhang Jin.

After that, Xingfengmen contacted them again and asked them to send Zhang Jin away.

In addition, I saw with my own eyes that day that the mysterious monk escaped to Xianbao City and used the teleportation array used by the VIP token.

Zhang Jin seems to be related to that mysterious monk.

Judging from this series of clues, the eldest princess’ disappearance has a lot to do with the Xingfeng Sect. After all, Hua Xuanzi was only at the early Nascent Soul stage.

It is obviously impossible for an early Nascent Soul cultivator to deal with Nangong Yanyue, who is in the late Nascent Soul stage and half a step away from becoming a god.

But if there is help from the Xingfeng Gate, then it’s hard to say.

The Xingfeng Sect could kill even a Nascent Soul cultivator instantly, so it was not surprising that they captured Nangong Yanyue, who was in the late Nascent Soul stage.

Qu Jing smiled bitterly and said:

"Alas, I will inform the Xingfeng Sect about this."

Qu Jing was also very helpless. She still didn't understand why Hua Xuanzi and Xingfengmen wanted to capture the eldest princess of Da Zhou. It seemed that the two sides had no grudges at all.

She didn't want anything to happen to Xingfengmen, as her interests were now tied to Xingfengmen. As long as Xingfengmen was there, her performance would continue to rise, and her status in the Xianbao Chamber of Commerce would continue to improve.

"We have done everything we can. Today's incident has already offended Da Zhou, but it can at least delay some time. What happens next will depend on Xing Feng Sect itself."

Mr. Xie spoke in a low voice.

Qu Jing nodded and didn't say anything more.

Outside Xianbao City, Nangong Wanyue left Xianbao City with a group of Yantian Guards.

At this time, the armored woman beside her couldn't help but speak:
"Your Highness, the Xianbao Chamber of Commerce must know the whereabouts of Zhang Jin. I have asked around in the city. Zhang Jin had always lived in the Xianbao Chamber of Commerce. Now the Xianbao Chamber of Commerce actually says that they don't know where he has gone. It's obvious that they are deliberately hiding it from us."

Nangong Wanyue said calmly:
"Of course I know that Xianbao Chamber of Commerce is deliberately hiding this from us, but don't you think there is something fishy behind this? What kind of power, what kind of person, could make Xianbao Chamber of Commerce keep this a secret even at the cost of offending our Great Zhou?"

After these words were spoken, the expression of the armored woman became serious.

"Your Highness, this."

"This matter is more complicated than we thought. Let's go to the Poxing Sect and take a look. There is definitely something wrong with Hua Xuanzi. I was not sure before, but now I am sure."

Nangong Wanyue showed an interested look.

Half a month later.

In the northern border, at Xingfeng Gate, in the secret room.

Chen Feng was sitting cross-legged in a hyperbaric oxygen chamber. Around him were piled a large number of spirit stones that had been drained of their spiritual energy, as well as several empty bottles of pills.

Two different lights were flashing on his body at this moment.

One is the light of stars, and the other is the blue light of spiritual energy.

At this moment, a powerful aura suddenly emanated from Chen Feng's body.

But as soon as this breath was revealed, he immediately absorbed it into his body.

After a moment, Chen Feng, who was sitting cross-legged, opened his eyes.

"Middle stage of Nascent Soul!"

After about a month of practice, Chen Feng reached the middle stage of Nascent Soul from the early stage.

Originally, according to his estimation, if he wanted to break through to the middle stage of Nascent Soul, he would need at least several years of seclusion and hard training, but he achieved it in just one month.

And there were no bottlenecks during this period.

Chen Feng looked at the empty porcelain bottles in front of him with a complicated expression.

There are many reasons why he can practice so quickly.

First of all, he practiced the Star Body Refining Technique, first absorbing star energy and then absorbing spiritual energy. The combination of the two energies allowed his cultivation to improve extremely quickly.

In addition, there is the hyperbaric oxygen chamber, which allows his body to absorb spiritual energy in all aspects, and the speed of absorbing and converting spiritual energy is incredibly fast.

These are factors that other immortal cultivators do not have.

Finally, it was the elixir he got from Nangong Yanyue.

Many of these elixirs are those that are only taken by cultivators in the late Nascent Soul stage. For a cultivator in the early Nascent Soul stage to take elixirs used by cultivators in the late stage, the improvement brought about is enormous.

With the combination of these three factors, he was able to reach the middle stage of Nascent Soul in such a short time.

Chen Feng stood up and left the hyperbaric oxygen chamber.

He looked inside his body and found that the Nascent Soul in his body had grown a lot stronger. The quality and quantity of spiritual power it could contain were several times more than that of the early Nascent Soul.

The improvement of each small realm of a Nascent Soul cultivator, in addition to the increase of his own spiritual power and consciousness, also involves the control of the spiritual power of heaven and earth.

A cultivator in the early stage of the Nascent Soul can only borrow the spiritual power of heaven and earth within a radius of ten kilometers, but a cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul can expand this range to dozens of kilometers.

Moreover, the power of one's own spells varies greatly due to the different quality of the spiritual energy in the body.

Not only that, each small realm will increase the spiritual charm in the Nascent Soul, so that more teleportation methods can be performed.

But these are just improvements for ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators.

Chen Feng’s improvements were more than that. After he reached the middle stage of Nascent Soul, his physical body was strengthened again.

Chen Feng felt that with his current strength, if he faced Jiang Bohan's magical finger again, he would definitely not be injured as badly as before.

Moreover, as his realm improved, the amount of star energy he could accommodate increased.

With his current level of ability to absorb star energy, he could already begin to practice the magical power called "Heavenly Star Annihilation Finger".

But Chen Feng was not in a hurry to continue practicing. He planned to rest for a few days first.

He took out his cell phone and looked at the messages that had been sent during this period.

The message sent by Liu Qian made Chen Feng frown.

"The second princess of the great Zhou Dynasty, Nangong Wanyue."

According to the message sent by Liu Qian, a woman named Nangong Wanyue came to Da Zhou and is investigating the disappearance of Nangong Yanyue.

The other party has already investigated the Xianbao Chamber of Commerce and has also set their sights on his identity as Hua Xuanzi.

The Xianbao Chamber of Commerce also sent a message asking them to be prepared.

"We do need to make some preparations, but as long as Huashen doesn't take action, then there will be no problem." Chen Feng was not very nervous.

After this period of time, he has learned some secrets of the world of immortal cultivation.

The Divine Transformation cultivators in the major domains of the Inner Sea cannot attack at will, nor can they go to other domains at will.

Although the Great Zhou had several Jindan cultivators, they could not easily step into the Southern Region, let alone come to the outer sea.

Unless the other party has evidence to prove that Nangong Yanyue is in his hands.

However, Chen Feng was indeed surprised that the other party could find out his identity as Hua Xuanzi so quickly.

Chen Feng then looked at the messages sent by other people.

Ge Yunxuan sent him a message seven days ago, saying that Zuo Poxing and the other two had arrived at Xingfeng Gate and were waiting to see him.

Chen Feng didn't care much about this. His attention was focused on another piece of news.

This was sent to him by Taiyi.

Taiyi has already designed the concealment formation, and has also provided three different concealment formations that utilize star energy.

However, these are just theories. To see whether they can be used, we need to find a formation master to set up the formation.

"I know too few formation masters." Chen Feng fell into thought.

This matter involves space-based weapons, so it must be done by his own formation master. Chen Feng is not at ease to hand it over to other people.

In fact, the first person Chen Feng thought of was Xiao Ling. This person had extremely high attainments in formations, but he had a close relationship with Wangyue City, so it was naturally impossible for him to let this person set up the formation.

Without staying in the secret room any longer, Chen Feng simply packed up and left the secret room.

He planned to ask a few people in the sect who were good at formations. If one of his own could set up this formation, that would be the best. (End of this chapter)
