Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill-Chapter 236 - 189 Heavenly Sect

Heavenly Sect, when Wang Sheng was in Jiangyuan City, he hadn’t deliberately inquired but still knew some information about the sect.

An important point was that the members of the Heavenly Sect were vengeful, and once they confirmed someone as their enemy, revenge was certain.

In these past days when nothing had happened, Wang Sheng had assumed it was because he had left early and the members of the sect hadn’t received the news, which was why things had remained peaceful.

But now, it seemed that might not be the case.

New novel chapt𝒆rs are published on ƒгeewebnovёl.com.

It seemed the people of the Heavenly Sect had been targeting them, or rather, targeting their "Tiger Carriage."

Because they were all inside the carriage without showing themselves, but still being targeted, clearly, the "Tiger Carriage" was their goal.

No, it should be said that after being affected by Wang Sheng’s spirit secret technique, what they saw as the target was the carriage.

"How impressive their intelligence network is!"

It was evident that this group of people was here waiting with intent, indicating that his route had been known even while he was still in the city.

It was only because he did not pay special attention and did not sense the hostility that he had failed to realize he had been targeted all along.

But it didn’t matter now; discovering this wasn’t too late.

It was just unknown when those people would make their move, among them was even a Grandmaster Level Martial Artist, hopefully providing him with a surprise.

"Little Uncle, what are you looking at?"

Wang Lingwei came up to Wang Sheng as he was lost in thought looking out the window, and then she saw the flag of the Heavenly Sect.

Although the incident that day had been resolved, she remembered the person who attempted to take them away by force was a cultist of the Heavenly Sect.

"Little Uncle, they are the sect that wanted to take us away that day, aren’t they?"

Wang Lingwei’s expression was somewhat troubled, anyone nearly taken away by force would have a bad impression.

"That’s right, be cautious with the people from this sect in the future, they have certain tricks."

The hypnotic methods driven by Qi Blood Power were hard to guard against.

Especially for people like Wang Lingwei, who weren’t very strong and were also young.

Young, which implies a weak "Spirit."

"I understand, Little Uncle, but how come the people of the Heavenly Sect are here? Are they everywhere?"

"I’m not sure about other places, but I can be sure that those outside came specifically for us.

"Ah!"

The others also heard Wang Sheng’s words and felt somewhat nervous knowing they were being targeted.

"It’s okay, let’s enter the city first."

Wang Sheng had been waiting for the members of the Heavenly Sect to make a move, but they hadn’t done anything, leaving him uncertain of their intentions.

Since they had not acted, he wouldn’t act either.

He still hoped to learn from these people that hypnotic method driven by Qi Blood Power.

That method wasn’t purely a mental technique, but it could still aid him.

To him, it was truly a "Top Secret Technique."

Perhaps even the Martial Arts Secret Manuals that led directly to the Great Grandmaster weren’t comparable.

"Don’t wander off once you enter the city."

He was confident in himself, but worried that those people might use some underhanded tactics.

"Yes!"

At this time, the twelve of them were very obedient.

Da Bai pulled the carriage, slowly entering the city.

This city was named Tianshan City, signifying a city connected to mountain ranges as high as the sky, also serving as a connecting city between Jianzhou and Shuzhou.

However, Jianzhou, also key in connecting Jianzhou and Shuzhou, was noticeably more dilapidated than Jiangyuan City in Shuzhou, at least Jiangyuan City appeared thriving, displaying a prosperous scene.

On the streets of Tianshan City, the pedestrians did not exactly appear desperate, but they were numb, seemingly indifferent to everything.

Liu Jian’an seeing this scene, was reminded of his own past.

Previously, when King Yong Nian’s army had breached Jiangyuan City, countless people were living in fear of the next day, some chose to leave, others chose to stay and just muddle along, those who stayed had this kind of expression.

Numb, indifferent, despairing.

After the death of his parents, he had thought in this way.

It represented a complete absence of hope for the future, just living however one could.

The people inside the city were no different from those they had encountered on the road leading here; living day by day, any small incident could make them just like those outside.

And it seemed, there were scarcely any young people in this city.

Da Bai continued forward, arriving at the Yuelai Inn of Tianshan City.

Yuelai Inn could almost be seen in any place throughout the Great Zhou, and though it didn’t call itself an Overlord, Wang Sheng believed that this power was absolutely strong.

Taking commerce to the extreme, its influence was undoubtedly stronger than one might imagine.

The hidden strength behind it, must also be extremely formidable.

There weren’t many people at the Yuelai Inn in Tianshan City; it was far less bustling compared to the one in Jiangyuan City.

Wang Sheng did catch sight of the porridge distribution line at Yuelai Inn when he entered the city, not far from Heavenly Sect.

One cannot deny, Yuelai Inn is much purer than Heavenly Sect.

While Heavenly Sect distributed porridge, they enticed people to join their sect. Still, they did save many lives, so Wang Sheng did not put much thought into it.

Those Heavenly Sect Followers harboring murderous intentions did not act, and he did not wish to be the villain either.

Impure as it may be, it still provided hope for many people to survive.

After entering the Yuelai Inn, a lack of patrons meant the server came up immediately.

"What would you like to order?"

Wang Sheng casually ordered a few items, then handed the menu to Liu Jian’an and the others.

Soon, the order was complete.

The server went to pass on the order, and upon his return, Wang Sheng called him over.

The intelligence from an inn was not to be underestimated, especially from a chain like Yuelai Inn that was spread throughout the entire dynasty.

"Server, I need to ask you something!"

Wang Sheng had expected the server to agree readily like those from other inns. However, the server spoke, "Sir, there is an additional charge for intelligence, but rest assured, the information from Yuelai Inn is most comprehensive and will not disappoint you."

Wang Sheng was stunned, then he asked with a smile, "What are your charges for information?"

"It depends on what you need to know. The simplest information is cheaper, but more secretive information costs more.

Of course, there’s also a special situation where the information you seek is commonly known, but unknown to you. As long as you dine at Yuelai Inn, we can provide it for free."

The server spoke with a businesslike smile all along.

During his previous visits to Jiangyuan City, Wang Sheng had dined and stayed at Yuelai Inn without realizing they offered such a service, finding it rather novel.

However, since it was so convenient, he naturally did not bother to inquire elsewhere.

So, he directly asked, "What is the value of information about Heavenly Sect?"

He had not inquired about the information in Jiangyuan City and now, having left Shuzhou and foreseeing an encounter, he naturally needed a clear understanding.

"If you are just looking to understand, information is free, but if you desire a detailed understanding, even knowing the internal situation, you’ll need to pay extra."

To some smaller forces, Heavenly Sect seemed fearsome, but for a force on the level of Yuelai Inn, Heavenly Sect was just another piece of information to trade.

"All the detailed information, including the powerful figures," since he wanted to understand, he definitely needed a clear understanding.

"Then you will also need to pay..."

The server provided a figure, not cheap, but not beyond expectation.

"Agreed!" Wang Sheng promptly paid.

"Sir, this way please, to a private room upstairs."

Wang Sheng amicably followed the server upstairs to the private room.

Once inside the private room, the server brought several pages filled with information.

Wang Sheng’s mind was clear as he surveyed the documents, which contained intelligence on Heavenly Sect.

The server also spoke up,

"Heavenly Sect, originating near the province of Quanzhou over two hundred years ago, worships heaven and believes that heaven itself is the natural divine spirit.

Initially, Heavenly Sect was merely a small sect, performing deeds of virtue and charity, which continued for over a hundred years until changes occurred when a new sect hierarchy, Qiao Nian, ascended about several decades ago.

Since that time, Heavenly Sect’s operational style became deceitful, seemingly possessing means to bewitch people, expanding rapidly over decades, almost turning the entirety of Quanzhou into their domain.

Among them, Sect Hierarch Qiao Nian has the strength of a Top Grandmaster, and there are also Four Great Guardians, Qiao Fan, Qiao Ji, Qiao Cang, and Qiao Hai, all Grandmaster strength, which is known publicly.

However, in reality, Heavenly Sect also conceals an additional ten Grandmasters who seldom appear, and there are even more Martial Artists below Grandmaster level…"

The server detailed everything meticulously.

Apart from the strength of Heavenly Sect, Wang Sheng had also heard a bit about their style of operation, such as their tyranny and vengefulness.

With the information now in his hands, Wang Sheng had a very detailed understanding of Heavenly Sect.

One could say the money was well spent; the information obtained was indeed comprehensive.

Even the hidden location of Heavenly Sect’s headquarters was included in the information.

In the end, the server added one more point,

"Another piece of information is that the Heavenly Sect Leader might not just have Grandmaster strength but could potentially be a Great Grandmaster. However, this has not been verified, so the information still mentions Top Grandmaster."

Yuelai Inn did not trade unverified information, but they still mentioned it.

It must be said, whether it’s the quality of the information or the quality of service, Yuelai Inn had it well handled.

"Is there no other information?"

"Sir, that’s all there is. If anything is missed, all the details are also in the documentation you have." The server answered very professionally.

Wang Sheng nodded, indicating his satisfaction.

The server respectfully excused himself.

"It’s no wonder that it is a force that possesses the top Great Grandmaster strength. Even a fifth-grade Martial Artist like the server has such comprehensive information…"

Saying this, Wang Sheng opened a booklet in his hand that also included a map of the entire dynasty, with Heavenly Sect’s location specifically marked.

"Quanzhou, huh? Though not planned on our route, we might as well take a detour…"
