Li Hengsheng was soon to leave Dao Mountain Ancient Land for Zhenguo Mansion, and somehow, the news had spread. The disciples of Dao Mountain Ancient Land were all surprised by this decision.

Because Li Hengsheng was probably one of the few in the history of Dao Mountain Ancient Land who had been sent out as an Inspector before reaching the Prenatal Realm.

In Qingyu Mountain, he wanted to pack up his things, but after searching, Li Hengsheng found that he actually didn’t have much luggage.

He packed a few clothes and took the Chasing Immortal Spear with him. That was pretty much all of Li Hengsheng’s belongings.

Li Hengsheng didn’t know what the master’s arrangement meant.

However, Xu Muhai believed that every decision the master had made over the years was meaningful, and Li Hengsheng should just go ahead and do it.

“Brother.”

At this time, a hurried voice came from outside the courtyard.

The servants of the mansion quickly opened the door and found that the person standing outside was Wu Santong.

Wu Santong ran over panting. He had also heard the news that Li Hengsheng was leaving Dao Mountain Ancient Land for Zhenguo Mansion, so he hurried over.

“Brother Wu, are you here to see me off?” Li Hengsheng greeted him with a forced smile.

After the news spread today, almost no disciples came to find Li Hengsheng, only Xu Yueyue, Yan Yuyun, and a few other disciples with good relationships came.

When he became a direct disciple, none of the other peaks’ direct disciples who had come to congratulate him came.

They all seemed to want to keep their distance from him.

Li Hengsheng could understand. He, a disciple in the postnatal realm, was suddenly sent to Zhenguo Mansion as an Inspector. The chances of him coming back alive were slim.

Zhenguo Mansion was not a peaceful place. Some human sects would send disciples there as Inspectors to maintain the order and limit the Ghost Clan. Ye Qingchen was in the Prenatal Realm, so naturally, there was no problem.

But Li Hengsheng was only in the postnatal realm, a whole realm behind.

In everyone’s eyes, the sect was sending Li Hengsheng to his death.

Since Li Hengsheng was destined to die, why keep in touch? Wasn’t it a waste of time?

As for those who could come to see him off today, Li Hengsheng naturally remembered them in his heart.

“Brother Li.” Wu Santong said panting, “I’m not here to see you off.”

“Then what are you here for?” Li Hengsheng looked at Wu Santong in surprise.

“I want to go with you!” Wu Santong said firmly to Li Hengsheng.

“Go with me?” Li Hengsheng was stunned when he heard this. Go with him to Zhenguo Mansion?

“Brother Li, I want to go with you. Let me follow you!” Wu Santong looked at Li Hengsheng seriously, his expression was very serious, not like he was joking at all.

Li Hengsheng frowned and said, “Brother Wu, do you know where I’m going? That’s Zhenguo Mansion, I’m going to be an Inspector.”

“Even an Inspector needs someone by his side.” Wu Santong said, “I can follow Brother Li and help you handle some simple things. I’m sure I’ll be useful to you. Let me follow you, Brother!”

“It’s too dangerous.” Li Hengsheng shook his head. He didn’t want Wu Santong to take risks with him.

“I’m not afraid of danger.” Wu Santong’s voice became sincere, “Please give me a chance, Brother Li!”

“I’m going there with a slim chance of survival, why do you insist on going with me? If you stay in Dao Mountain Ancient Land, stay on Mu Haifeng, you will definitely have a better future. Why do you want to suffer with me?” Li Hengsheng was puzzled.

“Hehe, I don’t know.” Wu Santong suddenly laughed foolishly, “From the first time I met you, Brother Li, I knew you were not ordinary. You will definitely rise to prominence and turn bad luck into good luck!”

“I’m actually just a small character. It seems like I’m doing well in the outer sect, and I’m familiar with all the brothers, but that’s all because of my thick skin. I don’t have any real skills. I’ve been in the sect for so many years, and I’ve become a loafer in the outer sect of Mu Haifeng.”

“My strength is average, my future is average, I can see my future clearly now, and I’m just a nobody. My peers are all inner sect disciples now, and I’m still thinking about what to eat for the next meal every day. Honestly, I don’t want to live this kind of life.”

“I know that going to Zhenguo Mansion with Brother Li will definitely be dangerous, but fortune favors the brave. Either I remain a worm, or I become a dragon. This is a chance for me, and I also want to live a different life.”

As he said this, Wu Santong’s eyes turned red, “Don’t laugh at me, Brother Li. Actually, I came from a small town. My father opened a martial arts gym in the town to support our family. I have two older brothers. My father was once a top postnatal martial artist.”

“Later, during a martial arts competition, I was ambushed and left disabled. My two older brothers also have poor aptitude. My father’s greatest hope is that one day I could become a Prenatal Realm warrior and be his pride. He gave me all his money to take the test for Dao Mountain Ancient Land. Although I made it in, I found the distance to the Prenatal Realm to be so far and unreachable.”

“I have failed the outer door examination twice in a row. If I fail again, I will have to leave Mu Haifeng and go to the Peak of Ten Thousand Slaughters. I haven’t been home for two years. I’m afraid my father will be disappointed when he sees me.”

“Brother Li.” Wu Santong took a deep breath at this moment: “In one’s life, there are things that are actually more important than life itself.”

“Please grant me this favor!”

After saying that, Wu Santong immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Li Hengsheng.

“Brother Wu, please get up.”

Li Hengsheng stepped forward to help Wu Santong up.

“Alright, if you want to go, then come with me. If you can’t stand it, you can come back. I’ll talk to the master and keep your place as a disciple of Mu Haifeng.” Li Hengsheng sighed lightly.

“Thank you, Brother Li!” Wu Santong was extremely excited.

He sincerely believed that Li Hengsheng was a person with a future, a promising person. Therefore, Wu Santong decided to please Li Hengsheng from the beginning, considering it as a kind of investment.

“I’ll go back and pack up.” Wu Santong hurried back to pack his things.

“Young Master, I’ll go with you too.” Xu Kui walked up from behind.

“Uncle Xu, you’re going too?” Li Hengsheng was surprised.

“I can’t rest easy if you go alone.” Xu Kui said with a smile: “The master originally asked me to stay by your side. My old bones might still be of some use to you.”

Li Hengsheng pondered for a moment, then nodded: “Alright then.”

Then, Yang Tiantian and Ye Qingchen also came.

They came to see Li Hengsheng off.

Yang Tiantian proposed to go with Li Hengsheng, but this time Li Hengsheng directly refused. He felt that Yang Tiantian had done too much for him, and with the third brother gone, and himself leaving, it was clear that the eldest brother was also about to leave.

Li Hengsheng hoped that Yang Tiantian could stay by Xu Muhai’s side, otherwise, without any direct disciples, wouldn’t Mu Haifeng become a laughingstock?

Wouldn’t the disciples of Mu Haifeng be bullied by disciples from other peaks?

Yang Tiantian was still insisting, after all, she had promised Li Changqing to protect Li Hengsheng. But Li Hengsheng’s firm attitude made Yang Tiantian have to give in.

“Fourth Brother, let me tell you about Zhenguo Mansion.”

At this moment, Ye Qingchen was speaking to Li Hengsheng with a serious expression.

“Brother, go ahead.”

Ye Qingchen was an inspector of Zhenguo Mansion and was very familiar with it. His advice was the best.

“There are four inspectors in Zhenguo Mansion in total, and our Dao Mountain Ancient Land is just one of them.” Ye Qingchen said: “Our duty as inspectors is actually to protect the people, to ensure that they are not invaded by the Ghost Clan, and not bullied by some evil humans.”

“We inspectors are not fighting alone, we have our own forces.” Ye Qingchen said: “They are also people who have lived in Zhenguo Mansion for generations, as well as some official people. We are parachuted in, and Zhenguo Mansion originally belonged to a bit outside of the North Cold Country, so the real rulers are the people of the North Cold Country.”

“Above the inspectors, there is the historian of Zhenguo. Major decisions are mainly made by the historian. Do you understand what I’m saying?”

“I think I get the gist of it.” Li Hengsheng nodded thoughtfully.

“So, if I become an inspector, I actually have quite a few subordinates to use, right?” Li Hengsheng felt relieved. In this way, he could let his subordinates handle daily affairs.

“In theory, yes.” Ye Qingchen said: “Our inspection mansion has a Prenatal Realm divine catcher, and four postnatal peak realm catchers.”

“That’s great!” Li Hengsheng’s eyes lit up.

“But I don’t know why.” Ye Qingchen scratched his head: “Their health doesn’t seem to be very good.”

“Huh?”

“What do you mean their health isn’t good?” Yang Tiantian was also stunned at this moment. A Prenatal Realm and four postnatal perfect realm powerhouses, and you say their health isn’t good?

“It’s just that this Prenatal Realm divine catcher is always on sick leave, and the four postnatal perfect realm catchers are always sick when I need them.” Ye Qingchen pondered: “At that time, I even suspected that the inspection area I was in had been hit by some plague, but later investigations showed that it hadn’t.”

Li Hengsheng: “……”

Yang Tiantian: “……”

Are they really sick?

Or do they just not want to come?

“So how do you handle things on a daily basis?” Li Hengsheng twitched the corner of his mouth and couldn’t help but ask Ye Qingchen.

“It’s simple, if they’re all sick, then I’ll do it myself.” Ye Qingchen laughed: “Whoever causes trouble, I’ll go and beat them up.”

“Ah, they were quite fierce at first, but I managed to subdue them. However, Fourth Brother, with your limited strength, this method might not suit you. If they don’t beat the shit out of you, consider yourself lucky,” Ye Qingchen said seriously, sizing up Li Hengsheng.

“Ah,” Li Hengsheng sighed. His senior brother had managed to offend everyone.

Now he had to pick up this hot potato.

This was going to be tough!

“I’ll tell you about the situation in Zhenguo Mansion. Over the years, I’ve uncovered quite a few interesting things. Hehe, some of them are quite private. If they beat you up, spill their secrets when you’re on the brink of death. Show some backbone.”

“So they won’t dare to beat me up anymore?” Li Hengsheng was taken aback.

“No, you’ll die with more dignity,” Ye Qingchen said seriously.

“……”

After listening to Ye Qingchen’s long-winded speech, Li Hengsheng finally managed to send the two of them away. Then, Li Hengsheng went to the Floating Image Pavilion to bid farewell to Li Jinsong.

Li Jinsong didn’t know what to say for a moment, so he could only advise Li Hengsheng to be careful.

Then he took out a bottle of pills and handed it to Li Hengsheng.

“This is a fifth-grade pill, Lingyang Jade. If you encounter a major danger and get seriously injured, hold one in your mouth. It can protect your heart meridian for at least three days!”

Li Jinsong handed the pill to Li Hengsheng.

“Thank you, Pavilion Master Li.” Li Hengsheng bowed respectfully to Li Jinsong.

In this Dao Mountain Ancient Land, Li Jinsong had been very kind to him, which Li Hengsheng would always remember.

“Go,” Li Jinsong said calmly. “Return safely.”

“Yes.”

Li Hengsheng turned and left.

Watching Li Hengsheng’s retreating figure, Li Jinsong was filled with mixed feelings. Li Hengsheng was a disciple he liked very much. He hoped that Li Hengsheng would return safely, and he also wondered what Li Hengsheng’s father, Li Changqing, would think if he knew that Li Hengsheng was going to such a dangerous place.

Turning around, he took out the letter from the secret compartment. Li Jinsong pondered for a long time, then left with the letter.

Wu Santong had already prepared everything and was waiting for Li Hengsheng at Qingyu Mountain.

Li Hengsheng finally went to bid farewell to Xu Muhai on Mu Haifeng, and then he left the mountain with Wu Santong and Xu Kui.

“Zidian, let’s go.”

Leading the horse Zidian left by Zhou Jun, Zidian was very familiar with Li Hengsheng, so there was no resistance.

Obediently, it was harnessed to the carriage, and then Li Hengsheng and Wu Santong sat in the carriage, with Xu Kui driving, they left the Dao Mountain Ancient Land.

When leaving the mountain gate, Li Hengsheng looked back at the gate. He didn’t know when he would return after leaving this time.

“Senior brother, we will come back,” Wu Santong comforted him, thinking that Li Hengsheng was reluctant to leave.

“Hmm.”

Li Hengsheng nodded, but didn’t say much.

At this moment, he thought of Zhou Jun, thought of Lu Qiaoqiao, thought of the time he had spent here.

“I’ll take a nap.”

Having not slept for two nights, Li Hengsheng felt a bit tired.

“You sleep, senior brother.”

Wu Santong took out a blanket and covered Li Hengsheng.

At this moment, Xu Kui was driving the carriage towards Changting Town.

Before leaving, Li Hengsheng wanted to see his father.

At this time, Li Changqing had also received a letter from Xue Qianbai. Xue Qianbai’s snow sculpture brought the letter, which explained the cause and effect.

The content of the letter shocked Li Changqing.

His son was going to Zhenguo Mansion to be an inspector?

But that wasn’t the main point. The main point was that his son was on his way back now!
