My construction materials are weird

"This thing has no memory?"

Since I'm already here, looting the corpse after killing is a must.

But Xuan Huang didn't find any memories in the puppet?

This is troublesome. It's not good to go back empty-handed, so I searched Jia Zhengyi's small courtyard.

The results were meager, though there was some money, it was useless to Xuan Huang.

"Old家伙, I've remembered you. You left me with nothing."

Xuan Huang secretly remembered Jia Zhengyi. He could squeeze oil out of ghosts, yet he failed on a person.

But thinking about it, this is just a puppet. Important items would definitely not be on its person.

Moreover, he has multiple hideouts. The identity of the deputy director is not his only home; who knows where he keeps the important stuff.

After sorting things out and finding nothing missing, Xuan Huang disappeared from this nameless small courtyard.

"Master Xuan, you're back?"

As he walked to the martial arts hall entrance, it was already 5:30 PM, and the sky had darkened.

From afar, he saw Sun Tong looking around anxiously at the entrance, waiting for Xuan Huang to return.

"I'm back."

Sun Tong looked Xuan Huang up and down.

"What are you doing? What are you looking at?" Xuan Huang asked.

Sun Tong smiled, "It's nothing."

Actually, she was checking if Xuan Huang was injured.

Although she had only known Xuan Huang for about ten days, she had keenly noticed that Master Xuan was a homebody.

Unless there was something important, he would almost always be in seclusion.

She didn't believe he went out to find inspiration.

Did he even need to find inspiration?

"Did Master Xuan have any gains?" Nevertheless, as a matter of procedure, Sun Tong asked.

Xuan Huang thought of Qi Long and Jia Zhengyi and said, "This time, the gains are considerable, one could say very large."

Especially Qi Long's memories. These were the memories of an old spirit master over six or seven years, a mixed bag of everything.

This might be his greatest gain.

"Very large gains?"

Sun Tong was stunned. He actually gained something.

"Come here." Xuan Huang said to her.

Sun Tong followed him into a room, where she saw Xuan Huang wave his hand, and half a table's worth of gold and jewelry appeared.

"Look, this is one of the gains."

Xuan Huang had searched it from Jia Zhengyi's home.

"This?"

Sun Tong was dumbfounded. Did he go out and rob someone? Otherwise, where would so much gold and jewelry come from?

"Give it to Sun Hui." Xuan Huang waved his hand. Gold and jewelry were useless to him.

If he wanted to use them, he could just take them from the martial arts hall. He had already passed the stage of earning money.

Or rather, he had become someone who defined what wealth was.

Ignoring the bewildered Sun Tong, Xuan Huang returned to the other courtyard to check on his other gains.

"Really went out to find inspiration? But where did the jewelry come from? Couldn't have picked it up, right?"

"Bang!"

Suddenly.

The loud sound of the door opening startled Sun Tong.

"Tongtong, where's Master Xuan? I heard he's back?"

Before she even turned her head, as soon as she heard someone call her Tongtong, she knew it must be her hall master uncle.

Sun Tong turned around and saw several other people.

Huang Dayou, the steward of the martial arts hall, Daoist Ma from the Taoist temple, and Vice Director Xia Qing were also there.

"Hall Master, Daoist Ma, Director Xia."

Sun Tong saw that her uncle and the others looked flustered. She first greeted them and said, "Master Xuan just returned and went to the other courtyard."

"It's good that he's back."

Sun Hui breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

He had been terribly frightened when he heard the news from Daoist Ma.

Half an hour ago, Daoist Ma and Xia Qing had come to visit. Sun Hui initially thought they were looking for him to inquire about the Immortal Dao methods Xuan Huang had mentioned.

But he learned from Daoist Ma that Jia Zhengyi had hired a spirit master assassin to assassinate Xuan Huang.

This news frightened Sun Hui greatly, and he immediately questioned Daoist Ma.

It turned out that one of Daoist Ma's disciples, Gao Jue, was a spirit master working in the Southern City Evil Suppression Department.

He was a steward with some power, belonging to Minister Xu Ruyi's faction, and he disliked Jia Zhengyi very much.

After all, people with different paths cannot make plans together; there was no other reason.

He had accidentally overheard the one-eyed man who had been injured some time ago complaining.

He said that Director Jia and Wei Zixuan had dragged him along, and he had been injured as a result, but the two of them had not given him any compensation.

He also complained that Wei Zixuan was untrustworthy and had no morals.

He said that Wei Zixuan's words sounded nice, suppressing martial artists for the sake of spirit masters, and that Xuan Huang needed to be dealt with as soon as possible…

These words were heard by Gao Jue, whose 'ears' had been transformed by a supernatural entity.

He immediately told his teacher, Daoist Ma.

He also mentioned the news that Xuan Huang was pioneering martial arts transcendence. The reason it hadn't spread was because Jia Zhengyi had suppressed it.

Daoist Ma was also anxious after hearing this. Xuan Huang was related to his path, and he was still waiting for Xuan Huang's Qi Refining Visualization Chart.

That Jia, you're cutting off the old Daoist's path! The old Daoist will never coexist with you under the same sky!

However, Daoist Ma quickly calmed down. This wasn't without evidence.

So he quickly had his disciple Gao Jue think of a way.

Gao Jue thought of the supernatural entity club, so he went to inquire about news this afternoon. After all sorts of inquiries and paying a considerable price.

He finally learned that Jia Zhengyi had items stored at the mission office.

He understood this. The items in the club's mission office were third-party guarantees, set up to facilitate transactions.

And a spirit master friend also told him that he had discovered the踪迹 of Shadowy Spirit Qi Long and had seen Jia Zhengyi meeting with Qi Long.

Gao Jue's ability was special. Because his name was Gao Jue, the same name as the god in mythology called Clairvoyant, who had the ability to see great distances.

In addition to controlling the supernatural entity Strange Ear, he was somewhat famous and had many friends.

In this way, he found out a rough outline.

Gao Jue was an orphan since childhood. Daoist Ma raised him and taught him his skills.

Gao Jue treated Daoist Ma like his biological father.

He obeyed his teacher's words, even after becoming a spirit master.

Therefore, he worked very hard, and the results were very good, obtaining everything he wanted.

Then he told his teacher everything he had inquired about.

This led to Daoist Ma hurriedly bringing Xia Qing to find Sun Hui.

Sun Hui became even more anxious after learning that Xuan Huang had gone out.

He immediately came to find Sun Tong.

As a result, on the way, he heard two young men, A and B, talking.

A: Did you see that? The one just now was Master Xuan, the hope of our martial arts.

B: Who's the beauty?

A: Who's the beauty is none of your business.

B: I'm just asking for a friend.

A: That's the hall master's niece, the assistant to Master Xuan.

Hearing this, he realized that Xuan Huang had returned safely.

"Did Master Xuan say anything? Also… um, was he injured?"

Sun Tong was stunned. Her uncle was actually thinking the same thing as her.

"No, Master Xuan said he went out for a walk and gained a lot."

Xia Qing, Daoist Ma, and Sun Hui were a little puzzled.

Seeing this, Sun Tong turned around.

Pointing to the pile of gold and jewelry on the table, she said, "Look, this is the harvest Master Xuan brought back, and he asked me to give it to you. I haven't even looked at it yet.… Oh, there are words on this."

Sun Tong picked up a exquisitely wrapped jade stone and said, "Let me see what it says, Evil Suppression Department Deputy Director Jia Zhengyi's personal collection?… What does that mean, Jia Zhengyi's collection??"

"Uncle, look." It was as if she had discovered a great treasure.

Sun Tong picked up another one and said, "This is also Jia Zhengyi's collection, and this one too…. Didn't Master Xuan say he went out for a stroll? How did he bring back so many of Jia Zhengyi's collections?"

Sun Tong hadn't figured it out yet.

As for Sun Hui: ??

Xia Qing: ??

Daoist Ma: ???
