Strange And Troubled Times: Eternal Life Begins From Marrying A Wife

Chapter 89: Liang Xu's True Identity, Qin Feng's Probe

If the two of them attack Liang Xu on September 15th.

It is estimated that they have already killed the former leader of the Black Water Cult.

"He will wake up within two months!"

Qin Feng's eyes were full of astonishment.

If the former leader of the Black Water Cult wakes up, it will be a disaster for the entire Eternal Peace County and Three Harmonies County.

"Liang Xu?"

Soon, Qin Feng noticed something wrong.

Because the name of the former leader of the Black Water Cult is actually Liang Xu.

It's exactly the same as his master's name.

"Could it be that Master Liang Xu is the Divine Tree Anomaly?"

Qin Feng's eyes were full of contemplation.

"Go back first, then add glutinous rice flour to the blood!"

Qin Feng instantly remembered the blood in Wang Jiankang's secret room.

Wang Jianren always brought blood from there.

If glutinous rice flour is added to this blood, it will definitely make Liang Xu fall asleep for another year and a half.

In this way, Qin Feng will have enough time to deal with Liang Xu.

Thinking of this, Qin Feng's figure moved and quickly ran towards the distance.

"Crash, crash!"

At the moment Qin Feng left, the giant trees began to shake violently.

"The Divine Tree is moving!"

"It won't be long before it wakes up!"

Looking at the violently shaking Divine Tree, Wang Jianren's face was full of excitement.

Inside the camp.

Qin Feng returned to the camp and did not go back directly.

Instead, he waited for three days before returning to the Eternal Peace Medicine Manor with the medicine-picking servants.

Qin Feng also gave each of the servants who came back from the inner mountain a couple of silver coins.

Back in the Eternal Peace Medicine Manor, Qin Feng fell into contemplation.

"Liang Xu, the Chief Protector!"

"Every year on August 15th, the Anomaly Divine Tree will enter a state of weakness!"

Qin Feng's mind was filled with memories of Liang Xu's words.

From Liang Xu's conversation.

Liang Xu has always wanted Qin Feng to take Liang Weiwei and leave Three Harmonies River on August 15th.

But on that day, there was no way out on Three Harmonies River.

Liang Xu even asked Qin Feng to rush into Soft Wind Mountain on August 15th and kill the Anomaly Divine Tree.

In the recent Eye of Heaven skill, only the owner of the Eternal Peace Medicine Manor severely injured the Anomaly Divine Tree.

There was no Liang Xu at all.

The name of that Divine Tree is exactly the same as Liang Xu's name.

And Lin Xue has reminded him several times to be careful of Liang Xu and not get too close to him.

All signs indicate that Liang Xu is suspicious.

"Let's go to Hundred Blades Martial Hall and take a look at Liang Xu first!"

Qin Feng made up his mind.

"Weiwei!"

Qin Feng shouted into the room.

"Husband, what's the matter?"

Liang Weiwei walked out of the room.

"We haven't been back to the martial hall for a long time. Let's go back together!"

Qin Feng said with a smile.

"Okay, I haven't seen my father for a long time either!"

Liang Weiwei's face was full of joy.

After more than ten minutes, Liang Weiwei and Qin Feng arrived at the martial hall.

At this moment, Liang Xu was practicing the Five-Tigers Gate Breaking Saber in the martial hall.

"Cough, cough, cough"

Just as he swung a few times, Liang Xu started coughing violently.

"Dad, what's wrong with you?"

Liang Weiwei hurried over.

"It's nothing, just an old problem!"

Liang Xu shook his head slightly.

Qin Feng became more and more suspicious as he looked at Liang Xu.

Because Liang Xu's aura was very strong, not at all like an injured person.

And the sound of his cough seemed very deliberate.

Liang Xu stood up and said, "Weiwei, you go to the front yard to guide the apprentices. Dad and Feng'er have something to discuss!"

"Dad, I'll go to the front yard first!"

Liang Weiwei quickly walked towards the front yard.

"Master!"

Qin Feng bowed to Liang Xu.

"Yes."

Liang Xu nodded slightly and asked, "Where did you go six days ago?"

"Six days ago?"

Qin Feng instantly remembered the County Magistrate Cai and Xu Kun from Three Harmonies County. After all, he had infiltrated Three Harmonies County and killed County Magistrate Cai and Xu Kun six days ago.

"Master, I went to the black market to buy things six days ago!"

Qin Feng quickly replied.

"The black market?"

Liang Xu's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"Weird!"

Liang Xu looked puzzled.

"What's wrong, Master?"

Qin Feng asked curiously.

"Nothing."

Liang Xu shook his head slightly and after a while, he asked, "How far have you progressed in the cultivation of the Five-Tigers Gate Breaking Saber?"

"Master, I haven't had much time to practice the Five-Tigers Gate Breaking Saber due to many things happening at the pharmacy these days!"

Qin Feng quickly replied.

"Practice it once, let me see!"

Liang Xu said slowly.

"Yes, Master!"

Qin Feng immediately started practicing the Five-Tigers Gate Breaking Saber.

However, Qin Feng did not use his full strength, but only displayed the Great Accomplishment level of the Five-Tigers Gate Breaking Saber.

Although it was only at the Great Accomplishment level, Qin Feng's movements were still extremely sharp.

After more than ten minutes, Qin Feng put away his saber and stood aside.

"Ah!"

Liang Xu sighed and said, "Your Five-Tigers Gate Breaking Saber has regressed a lot!"

Qin Feng remained silent.

Liang Xu glanced at Qin Feng and said, "There are only three months left until August 15th. Are you planning to leave Three Harmonies County with Weiwei this year?"

"Master, my strength is relatively weak. It will be difficult for me to take Weiwei away on August 15th!"

Qin Feng calmly replied.

"Ah!"

Liang Xu stood up, looked into the distance, and said, "According to my calculations, it won't be long before the Anomaly of Soft Wind Mountain awakens!"

"This year's August 15th is the last chance!"

Upon hearing Liang Xu's words, Qin Feng was certain that Liang Xu definitely had a problem.

On August 15th, the power of that mysterious Anomaly tree will double.

Moreover, the flaw in the blood-colored barrier is not on Three Harmonies River at all.

"What do you mean, Master?"

Qin Feng asked cautiously.

"Join forces with County Magistrate Ma Yingjie and me, and on August 15th, we will go to Soft Wind Mountain together to eliminate the Anomaly Divine Tree!"

"This way, we won't have to escape from Eternal Peace County!"

"And we can save millions of people in Eternal Peace County and Three Harmonies County!"

Liang Xu said seriously.

"Master's words make sense!"

Qin Feng nodded slightly and did not refute Liang Xu's words.

However, he was already certain of his guess.

Liang Xu was probably the Divine Tree Anomaly on Soft Wind Mountain.

Ma Yingjie was the Black Python Anomaly.

Asking Qin Feng to join Ma Yingjie in going to Soft Wind Mountain on August 15th was nothing short of sending him to his death.

"Feng'er, you can go and prepare first!"

"On August 15th, we will go to Soft Wind Mountain together and kill that mysterious Anomaly!"

Liang Xu waved his hand.

"Yes!"

Qin Feng slowly walked away.

In the instant Qin Feng turned around, he activated the Eye of Heaven skill.

With the activation of the Eye of Heaven skill, a virtual eyeball appeared in the sky.

Soon, Liang Xu's attributes slowly entered Qin Feng's field of vision.

[Puppet Anomaly: High Rank]

[Strength: Bone Refining Sixth Grade]

[Defense: Medium]

[Weakness: Rootless Water]

[Characteristic: Coughs up blood and weakens for a day every fifteenth day of the month, requires the use of Martial Artist's flesh to recover!]

[Source: Puppet of Liang Xu, the Chief Protector of the Black Water Cult]

[Immersing the puppet Anomaly in Rootless Water can kill the puppet Anomaly. Injecting Rootless Water into the puppet Anomaly's body can weaken its strength by half!]

"I didn't expect that my master would actually be an Anomaly!"

Qin Feng shook his head slightly.

He never expected that Liang Xu, who often guided him, would turn out to be an Anomaly.

And not just any Anomaly, but the strongest Anomaly besieging Eternal Peace County.

"Rootless Water!"

Qin Feng silently noted down Rootless Water.

"Three months!"

"Let the mysterious Anomaly tree in Soft Wind Mountain sleep for another year and a half!"

"Then find a way to get rid of Ma Yingjie, Wang Jianren, and Liang Xu!"

"Without these few people, it will be much easier to eliminate the Divine Tree Anomaly in Soft Wind Mountain!"

Qin Feng quickly arrived in the front yard.

Liang Weiwei was sitting in front of a stone chair with an unhappy expression.

"We've lost many apprentices in our martial arts hall!"

Liang Weiwei pointed to the apprentices in front and said.

"We've lost many?"

While Qin Feng spoke, he looked towards the front.

Only about thirty people were practicing martial arts in the empty space of the front yard.

"Could it be Liang Xu?"

Qin Feng quickly thought of that puppet Anomaly.

After all, he had to consume a Martial Artist every month to sustain himself.

Over an hour later, Qin Feng returned home.

At this moment, Qin Feng had a large bag in his hand.

Inside the bag were all glutinous rice flour.

"Tonight, I'll go to Liu Yunchao's and Wang Jiankang's houses!"

"Put this glutinous rice flour into their blood!"

Qin Feng made a decision.

Only in this way could he prevent the Divine Tree Anomaly from awakening.

Then he would have enough time to kill Ma Yingjie, Liang Xu, and Wang Jiankang.

"Husband, it's time to eat!"

Hu Qingya's voice came over.

"Coming!"

Qin Feng quickly stood up and walked towards the room.

At this moment, Liang Weiwei and Hu Qingya had already prepared the meal.

The three of them whispered to each other while eating.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Just as they were eating, the sound of urgent drums came over.

"The Drum Maker Anomaly is here, you two go rest!"

Qin Feng waved his hand.

Liang Weiwei and Hu Qingya didn't ask any more questions and went straight to the room.

Qin Feng also stood up, took the glutinous rice flour, and went out.

More than ten minutes later, Qin Feng arrived in Wang Jiankang's secret room.

Inside the secret room, it was still the same.

There were hundreds of large water tanks.

The water tanks were filled with blood.

"I wonder where the people from the Black Water Cult got so much blood from!"

Qin Feng said as he took out the glutinous rice flour.

After over an hour, Qin Feng finally filled all the water tanks with glutinous rice flour.

"Squeak, squeak..."

At this moment, a series of squeaking sounds suddenly came from above the secret room.

"Someone's here!"

Qin Feng's expression changed, and he quickly hid behind a water tank.

In that instant, two Daoist figures appeared in the secret room.

"Master Liang, is the blood ready?"

Liang Xu's voice came over.

"Sir, look here, there are over five hundred water tanks, each filled with fresh blood!" Ma Yingjie pointed to the water tanks ahead and said.

"Mm." Liang Xu nodded and said, "The Divine Tree will awaken after absorbing this blood!"

"The awakening of the Divine Tree is all thanks to you, sir!" Ma Yingjie said with a smile.

"Mm, continue to create some low-level anomalies!"

"On the day the Divine Tree awakens, we will drive all the people from Eternal Peace County and Three Harmonies County to Soft Wind Mountain!" Liang Xu commanded.

"Rest assured, sir, I have already started making low-level anomalies!" Ma Yingjie said respectfully.

"Good." Liang Xu's face was filled with satisfaction.

"Sir, Qin Feng has killed many of our subordinates. Should we kill him?" Ma Yingjie suddenly asked.

"No need, this person has cultivated the Eternal Life Withered Tree Technique, which is of great use to me!" Liang Xu shook his head slightly and walked towards the exit of the secret room.

Ma Yingjie quickly followed behind Liang Xu.

"Thud!" With a light sound, the heavy door of the secret room closed.

"Fortunately, the smell of blood here is very strong!" Qin Feng's face was filled with relief.

If it weren't for the strong smell of blood here, Liang Xu and Ma Yingjie would have probably discovered Qin Feng long ago.

"They actually want to drive all the people from Eternal Peace County and Three Harmonies County into Soft Wind Mountain!" Qin Feng's face turned very grim.

He naturally knew what Ma Yingjie and Liang Xu wanted to do.

That is to let the Divine Tree Anomaly in Soft Wind Mountain consume all the people.

But what shocked Qin Feng the most was that Liang Xu actually knew that he had cultivated the Eternal Life Withered Tree Technique.

Could it be that Liang Xu intentionally left the Eternal Life Withered Tree Technique in Eternal Peace Medicine Manor?

Why did Liang Xu make Qin Feng cultivate the Eternal Peace Footwork Technique? What is his purpose?

Commander's Hall.

In the blink of an eye, more than ten days had passed.

During these ten-plus days, Qin Feng had been practicing the Eternal Life Withered Tree Technique in the courtyard.

With Qin Feng's diligent practice, his proficiency in the Eternal Life Withered Tree Technique had also increased significantly.

[Eternal Life Withered Tree Technique: Great Accomplishment (5105/6000) - The withered tree meets spring, longevity increases, qi and blood greatly enhance.]

"Tap, tap, tap, tap!" Just as Qin Feng was finishing up, he saw more than ten carriages being transported out of Eternal Peace Medicine Manor.

The person leading them was Wang Jianren.

"Today is the 26th!"

"It happens to be the day when Wang Jianren is weak!"

While speaking, Qin Feng activated the Eye of Heaven skill.

Soon, Wang Jianren's information appeared before Qin Feng's eyes again.

[Half-Treant Anomaly: Intermediate Level]

[Strength: Bone Refining Sixth Grade]

[Traits: Feeds on flesh and blood. Today, strength will decrease by thirty percent, lasting for one day.]

[Weakness: Attacking the wound of the Half-Treant Anomaly with quicklime and fire can cause its strength to decrease by fifty percent.]

[Source: Practicing the half-corpse secret manual of the Black Water Cult, transforming into a Half-Treant Anomaly.]

Looking at Wang Jianren's attributes, Qin Feng's face was filled with excitement.

Today, Wang Jianren's strength had decreased by thirty percent.

He had also advanced from Bone Refining Fifth Grade to Bone Refining Sixth Grade.

If he added quicklime and fire, he would definitely be able to take down Wang Jianren.

"Who's there?" Wang Jianren looked nervously at the sky.

However, even after looking for a long time, Wang Jianren didn't find anything.

"Weird, who exactly is spying on me?"

After checking for a long time, Wang Jianren finally left with the carriages, heading towards the distance.

"First, follow Wang Jianren to the Divine Tree!"

"Check if the awakening time of the Divine Tree has been extended!"

"Then ambush Wang Jianren at the entrance of Soft Wind Mountain!"

Qin Feng also returned home and began to prepare.
