Chapter 333 Soul Search
After confirming that there was no ambush near Baiyun City, Wang Bin used the spaceship to carefully sense the city and found that the only Jindan cultivator in the city was Dujuan. Only then did he feel at ease to land the spaceship at the City Lord's Mansion.
At this time, several women including Du Juan, Du Xiaoyue, and Wang Zhaojun were there, followed by Wang Bin's sons who were in the Qi Refining stage. At the end of the team was a white-haired old man whose cultivation level was only at the Qi Refining level.
"Husband!"
"Father!"
Wang Bin didn't have the heart to greet them at the moment. He quickly scanned with his spiritual sense and found that his children who had spiritual roots were safe and sound. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Everyone, take your time. This happened several days ago. It won't solve the problem if you rush it now."
"My dear husband, this is the monk sent by Wenjun's mother to deliver the news."
Dujuan pointed at the only outsider in the hall and said.
Everyone's eyes instantly turned to the old man in the hall.
The old man was so frightened that his legs went limp and he knelt on the ground with a plop. He said in panic:
"This old servant, Han San, greets the City Lord, Princess Wenjun, and all the gentlemen.
Four days ago, the Qin Emperor suddenly announced at the morning court meeting that the Wang family of Baiyun Fairy City had been exterminated, and the Chu family of Xihai City ordered the annihilation of all mortals of the Wang family within the Qin territory.
Upon hearing this sudden news, some ministers in the court expressed their objections and suggested that the Emperor of Qin send someone to Baiyun City to find out the truth of the news before making a decision.
However, the Qin Emperor was stubborn and his cultivation had reached the middle stage of Qi Refining, making him the most powerful person in the court. Even when the Queen Mother came to stop him after hearing the news, it was of no avail.
Seeing that the situation was beyond redemption, the Queen Mother immediately sent an old slave to Baiyun City to check the situation.
I am just a cultivator at the first level of Qi Refining. I cannot fly on a sword for long. I could only fly on a horse while flying on the sword. It took me three days to reach Baiyun City.
On the way, I heard that members of the Wang family in several states had been wiped out by the local army, and in some states, members of the Wang family had taken control of the local army and were fighting against people sent by the court.
It was not until I arrived at Baiyun City and saw that it was intact that I realized that the Qin Emperor must have been bewitched.
The Emperor Qin was able to reach the middle stage of Qi Refining thanks to Princess Wenjun's support. He has always been respectful to the Wang family and would almost always meet their requests. He would never do anything to harm them. Please understand this, Lord City Lord!"
After Han San finished speaking, he kowtowed several times and sighed in his heart. The Queen Mother and Princess Wenjun were usually very nice to him, and he could only help them to this extent.
"Husband, go and save them! There must be someone among them who is still alive.
I secretly gave Li'er and Huan'er each a shield talisman to protect their lives. It's the kind that doesn't require spiritual energy to activate. A Qi-refining cultivator wouldn't be able to break the shield without consuming all of the energy, let alone a mortal.
Du Xiaoyue's face was full of anxiety. If she hadn't been waiting for Wang Bin, she would have run alone to save her son.
The other women were also extremely anxious. Wang Bin motioned for them to be quiet, then turned to look at Du Juan:
"Xiao Juan, didn't I ask you to arrange for a Foundation Establishment cultivator to lead a team of Qi Refining cultivators to secretly station in the Qin State?
Why are they saying they can't even deal with a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi Refining?"
Du Juan looked a little embarrassed and said with difficulty:
"I was negligent. The person I sent hasn't contacted me for more than ten days, and I didn't pay much attention to the situation over there.
When I tried to contact them today, I found that the communication token didn't respond at all!"
Wang Bin's face also turned ugly. He knew without thinking that the people he sent must have been killed by the people from the Zhongsheng Sect.
Moreover, Du Juan has no experience in intelligence work. Under normal circumstances, intelligence should be reported once a day regardless of whether there is anything happening or not.
Of course, Jindan cultivators sometimes go into seclusion for several days or even months and may ignore these things.
Wang Bin turned his gaze to Han San again. He looked like he was in his seventies or eighties, but he was only at the first level of Qi Refining. It seemed that it would be difficult for him to make any breakthroughs in this lifetime.
So he stopped hesitating and said, "Han San, right? You have made a great contribution by coming to report this time. My Wang family will definitely reward you handsomely!
However, I still need to search your soul. Don't worry, my cultivation is much higher than yours, and the damage to your sea of consciousness will be very small. Are you willing?"
As a low-level casual cultivator, Han San has now fallen to the point of working for mortals, and has long since forgotten his dignity.
He immediately kowtowed and said, "I am willing! If I unfortunately die during the soul search, it is because I am old and weak, and my life span is coming to an end.
Please ask the City Lord to give the reward to my granddaughter. Her name is Han Youwei, and Princess Wenjun knows her.
"Okay! This city lord keeps his word!"
After Wang Bin finished speaking, he walked up to Han San and put his right hand on Han San's head.
He did not check Han San's other memories, but only checked Han San's memories of the last month, so that the damage to Han San's sea of consciousness would be relatively small.
After quickly browsing his memory, Wang Bin confirmed that Han San was not a spy of the Zongsheng Sect, and had not come into contact with any suspicious people in the past month, so he felt relieved.
Looking at the slight damage to Han San's sea of consciousness and his twitching face, Wang Bin took out a drop of third-level pure spiritual power and directly injected it into Han San's sea of consciousness.
Han San's aura changed instantly, and his sea of consciousness broke through from the first level of Qi Refining to the second level of Qi Refining. Some damage in his sea of consciousness was also basically repaired.
Han San's expression kept changing, and his mind was full of thoughts.
But he still kowtowed in gratitude, but secretly felt that he had tried his best to practice and could not break through the second level of Qi Refining, but he didn't know what treasure the Lord of Baiyun City used on him, but he actually made him break through in an instant.
Perhaps the things that he had been pursuing in his life but could not obtain were just ordinary items gathering dust in the storage ring in the eyes of the Lord of Baiyun City.
Wang Bin took a look at the storage ring on the middle finger of his right hand. This ring was usually used as a cover and contained some ordinary things.
He took out a foundation-building pill, a first-level longevity pill, a thousand mid-grade spirit stones, ten drops of spirit liquid and a low-grade spirit flying sword from the ring and threw them to Han San.
"These are your rewards for traveling thousands of miles to report this news. My Wang family always repays favors!
Du Juan, remember his presence and spread the word that he will be protected by my Wang family in Baiyun City from now on. Anyone who dares to covet his property will be punished by my Wang family!
Wang Bin wants to constantly convey a message to the outside world through these small things: the Wang family keeps their word and is grateful!
"Yes, husband! I will leave a trace of his aura on him."
Du Juan agreed and left a golden elixir aura on Han San.
Han San still had a trace of resentment in his heart about having his soul searched, but it disappeared in an instant.
He had traveled thousands of miles, day and night, to report the news, but he was not believed and his soul was searched.
You know, soul searching is a common method used by demonic cultivators, which causes great damage to the cultivator's sea of consciousness. Although he was dissatisfied in his heart, he did not dare to resist.
Unexpectedly, City Lord Wang was so skilled that he only felt slight discomfort after searching his soul. Moreover, the City Lord healed his injuries with just a wave of his hand, and even allowed him to break through to the coveted second level of Qi Refining.
What's more, the rewards before him were so generous that he couldn't believe it.
Think about it, he just stepped into the world of immortal cultivation by chance at the age of forty, and for more than thirty years, he didn’t even own a medium-grade spirit stone, but Wang Bin directly gave him a thousand medium-grade spirit stones!
These are a thousand mid-grade spirit stones, and there are also two pills. Although he doesn't recognize them, they must be priceless if they can be given out together with a thousand mid-grade spirit stones as a reward.
And that flying sword, the aura on it should be a top-grade magic weapon.
As for the spiritual liquid in the jade bottle, he didn't even dare to take it out to look at it before he heard the order to go down and rest.
Without saying a word, he put all the things into the storage bag, resisted the urge to roar to the sky, and ran out of the hall with his head down.
At this moment, he didn't know how to calm his inner excitement, excitement, confusion, fear, regret, and even a hint of grief and anger.
If I had such a great opportunity forty years ago, maybe I could have become a foundation-building cultivator and lived for two hundred years!
