Zhao Sheng was too cooperative, which allowed Mo Shengxuan to easily understand the "truth" of the matter.
Therefore, Mo Shengxuan did not make things difficult for Zhao Sheng. He just casually placed a restriction to imprison his dantian.
Then, Zhao Sheng was taken to a yard and kept under guard, without even having to stay in a cell.
For the next half month, Zhao Sheng seemed to be forgotten. Except for a deaf-mute man who came in to deliver meals every day, no one came to visit him.
Regarding this, Zhao Sheng appeared very anxious on the surface, but he was actually very calm in his heart.
Because that day is coming soon!
Five days later, Zhao Sheng was finally remembered.
That day, two people suddenly came to the yard.
After a moment, Zhao Sheng silently followed them out of the yard.
He was soon brought back to the Black Ice Platform and met Mo Shengxuan again.
However, this time it was not just Mo Shengxuan who saw him. There were three other people standing behind Mo Shengxuan, looking at him curiously.
Zhao Sheng lowered his head silently and put his hands aside, without looking around for long.
Mo Shengxuan looked at Zhao Sheng but didn't speak immediately.
Just the day before, the Dragon Ball incident suddenly made great progress and the truth finally came to light.
The Dragon Ball did fall into the hands of the Zhou family.
Because the person who picked up the dragon ball was Zhou Zhongyu, the foundation-building cultivator of the Zhou family!
After a moment's silence, Mo Shengxuan suddenly asked, "Zhao Zhiqin, if I send you back to the Zhou family to lie low, would you be willing?"
"Yes! Very much willing!" Zhao Sheng was greatly encouraged and nodded immediately.
Mo Shengxuan was very satisfied with Zhao Sheng's performance.
With a wave of his hand, the three people behind him walked to the front and stood opposite Zhao Sheng, looking at him with different expressions.
Mo Shengxuan then said to Zhao Sheng, "In order to better utilize your role, I have specially assigned three Five Elements to assist you."
Having said that, he turned sideways and instructed the three people, "You guys, introduce yourselves!"
"Yes, sir!"
As soon as the words fell, one of the three people immediately accepted the order solemnly and walked out.
Only then did Zhao Sheng look up and carefully observe the three people in front of him.
The first person to come out was wearing a black gold armor, with his face hidden by a helmet. The armor was engraved with countless golden runes, which emitted a little bit of brilliance.
This person's sitting, standing and walking seemed to be measured with a ruler, and his movements were extremely precise, like a mechanical puppet.
"The metal element is better than the martial element!"
The armored man spoke without a trace of emotion, uttering three words mechanically. Then, ignoring Zhao Sheng's reaction, he turned around and stood back in his original position, his posture and movements exactly the same as before.
Zhao Sheng frowned slightly when he saw this.
At that moment, an old, frail figure with chicken skin and white hair approached and said in a hoarse voice, "Friend Zhao, don't take it to heart! Wu Daizi has always been so dull and boring."
Zhao Sheng looked at the person who came. He was no more than five feet tall. The wrinkles on his face were enough to kill a fly. The exposed skin was as dry as rotten wood. He was hunched over, but he was wearing a gray-black robe that dragged on the ground. It made people wonder if he would trip himself if he walked a little faster.
Zhao Sheng bowed to the man and said with a smile, "May I ask your name, fellow Taoist?"
"My surname is He, and my given name is Ying. I am currently an earth envoy, and my cultivation is just so-so. I have just entered the ninth level of foundation building." The old man returned the greeting seriously and said lightly.
Zhao Sheng was shocked. This old man was so old, but he didn't expect that he had already successfully built his foundation. It really shows that you can't judge a person by his appearance.
"My name is Zhao Zhiqin, nice to meet you, Daoist Fellow He! I'm new here, so please give me your guidance!"
"Okay, okay! Fellow Daoist Zhao has an important mission on his shoulders. The three of us will definitely cooperate with you to complete the mission."
"Hehe! Fourth Master He, I heard what you just said. Don't lie this time~"
A sweet voice suddenly sounded, and the rippling tone was unforgettable.
Zhao Sheng turned his head and saw a fiery red figure walking towards him. He was wearing a red shirt and thin skirt, with a ribbon tied around his waist, which further highlighted his slender waist.
The woman simply walked over with a smile. She was not very tall, but had a slim figure. With every movement, the almost exaggerated curves under her thin spring clothes were truly breathtaking.
He Yingquan, however, had no intention of watching. As he got closer, he snorted coldly, "I have always been honest and trustworthy. How could I cheat anyone?"
The woman had black hair tied up in a bun, but two strands of hair hung down on the sides of her face, adding to her charm. Her eyes were also very bold. She spun around and looked Zhao Sheng up and down. Then she bowed and said with a smile:
"I am Fire Envoy Bao Yu'er, greeting Fellow Daoist Zhao. I, your concubine, also have an irreconcilable feud with the Zhou family! I hope that we can cooperate wholeheartedly in the future and wipe out the Zhou family in one fell swoop!"
Although Bao Yuer had a smile on her face, her words were filled with murderous intent.
Zhao Sheng sized up the charming woman and said in a deep voice, "The Zhou family has committed countless evil deeds and should have been punished by heaven long ago! I deeply agree with what Fellow Daoist Bao said!"
"Okay, since you already know each other, I will now announce your tasks." At this time, Mo Shengxuan suddenly interrupted the conversation of several people and said in a serious tone.
Zhao Sheng's face was composed and he listened attentively. Bao Yuer and He Ying were shocked and immediately restrained their expressions and bowed their heads to wait.
Mo Shengxuan took out a jade slip and said to the four people, "This jade slip contains the information of sixty-seven people in total, covering all the important members of the Zhou family. Your mission is to investigate the movements of all of them and secretly monitor them. You must ensure that no one in the Zhou family escapes when the general attack is launched."
He Ying felt very embarrassed after hearing this and said tactfully, "Master, it's not that I'm afraid of difficulties, it's just that this mission is too incredible! With only the strength of the four of us, even if we split it into eight pieces, we can't monitor so many people!"
After hearing this, Mo Shengxuan said nothing, but looked up at Zhao Sheng.
Zhao Sheng nodded in understanding, then took a step forward and turned his gaze towards He Ying and the other two. He said confidently, "This won't be difficult! I've already made some preparations."
Having said that, Zhao Sheng told the three people about what he had done to the spirit wine before.
Anyone who has drunk his spiritual wine would not notice anything unusual at ordinary times, but once they mobilized their spiritual power, a special blood spiritual energy would emanate from their body.
Blood spiritual energy is almost colorless and odorless. It is not only non-toxic, but also very beneficial to the physical body of cultivators.
This special blood spirit energy is made from Zhao Sheng's own blood essence and is refined through the method of blood essence refining.
The practice of refining essence and blood is very common in Guiyuan Sect, and its original intention is to accelerate the growth of qi and blood.
This place was used by Zhao Sheng for tracking purposes.
To this end, he selected a common blood-sucking mosquito in the Tianhuang Territory, spent ten years of hard work, feeding generation after generation of blood-sucking mosquitoes with their essence and blood, and finally bred nearly a hundred blood-sucking mosquitoes.
This kind of demon mosquito is extremely sensitive to the smell of his blood and essence, and is the best helper in tracking him.
After hearing Zhao Sheng's explanation, He Ying was speechless, and Baoyu secretly admired this man for going to such great lengths to get revenge.
