Chapter 47: Fishing

Chu Xuan stopped infusing spiritual power into the Myriad Heavenly Mirror. After a few days of attempting random connections, he finally got in touch with another expert.

It was a Supreme realm expert called Du Yuan from the Western Region.

Chu Xuan had become addicted to masquerading as a senior expert. His regal demeanor stunned the other party.

He affixed one of the Myriad Heavenly Mirror’s marks on Du Yuan’s body so that he could locate the other party at any time.

Through the conversation just now, Chu Xuan found out that the Southern Region he belonged to was part of the Northern Zone of the nine zones.

Du Yuan was also located in the Northern Zone.

He did not have a formidable background, and was currently a guardian of a family in the Western Region.

This was because, when he was young, he had received assistance from the previous family head. As such, he was obligated to protect this family’s well-being.

Du Yuan was a talkative person, and he did not have the shrewdness or wiliness of a wizened old cultivator. Chu Xuan’s regal appearance made him view the interaction as a previous opportunity.

He was very respectful to Chu Xuan.

There was still one Myriad Heavenly Mirror mark left, and Chu Xuan decided to use this mark carefully.

Once all three marks were used up, if he wanted to mark a new target, he would have to retrieve one mark.

Currently, Chu Xuan had no intention of retrieving either one of the marks on Ren Changhe or Du Yuan.

Putting away the Myriad Heavenly Mirror, Chu Xuan turned to return to his room to sleep.

Suddenly, he discovered that someone had infiltrated the Chu family’s territory.

It was not someone from the heretic cult.

This person was only at the second level of the spirit realm, but he was equipped with concealing equipment as well as some sort of detection-type spiritual artifact. It was some pretty top-notch equipment.

Even the Chu family would be hard-pressed to produce such a set of equipment.

As such, there was no way this person was from the heretic cult.

Chu Xuan’s eyes lit up. Could it be a spy from the Black Moon Tower?

He was currently vexed about the fact that he did not have a capable attendant to subdue the Black Moon Tower on his behalf.

Who knew that a spy from the Black Moon Tower would suddenly come knocking on his door?

Was this spy here to investigate the Chu family’s territory due to a commission?

Was this commissioned by one of the leaders of the heretic cult?

Chu Xuan was puzzled. Was there something wrong with the heads of all these heretic cult leaders?

Why did they keep coming after the Chu family?

Was it because they had uncovered their spies and ruined their plans back then?

Shao Hu carefully investigated the Chu family’s territory. Every time he carried out a mission, he was very cautious.

Even though he possessed high-end concealment equipment, and the Chu family’s defenses were slightly lax, he kept his guard up.

His goal was to achieve the position of elite intelligence officer.

Every elite intelligence officer received more than twice the salary of an ordinary intelligence officer, and the equipment they received was even better.

They even enjoyed more cultivation resources.

While carefully investigating, he was also prepared to instantly destroy his own equipment before activating the spatial escape bead to escape.

The rigorous training of the Black Moon Tower meant that every intelligence officer was prepared to abandon and scuttle their own equipment at all times.

They had to avoid revealing the identity of the Black Moon Tower at allcosts. If necessary, they had to self-destruct as well!

Shao Hu was not worried about the Chu family catching him. By the time they discovered him, he would have already activated the spatial escape bead to escape.

As he explored the surrounding terrain, he suddenly felt that the layout of the Chu family’s territory was rather abnormal.

A large tree was planted on a small mound?

The guards looked like idiots as they stood on the branches and looked around.

What was even more ridiculous was that they even dug a trench. The guards hid themselves in the trench to guard against external threats.

As he walked around, a large mountain suddenly appeared in front of him.

The moment he saw the large mountain, Shao Hu was stunned.

Since when did the Chu family’s territory have a large mountain?

Something was wrong!

However, he could not figure out what exactly was wrong.

Should he go around the mountain or climb it?

After a moment of hesitation, Shao Hu decided to climb the mountain.

He was very curious as to why there was a mountain in the Chu family’s territory.

There was clearly no mountain visible from outside the territory.

According to their intelligence, the Chu family’s territory only spanned 12 li.

This mountain alone covered more area than that.

He inwardly thought that there was something wrong with the Chu family, but he could not detect anything unusual with his senses. What exactly was wrong? It seemed that he had lost his edge.

Chu Xuan drank his tea and watched as Shao Hu squatted outside the courtyard, motionless like a rock. He smiled.

How could a mere spirit realm cultivator detect an Emperor realm cultivator’s means?

The other party believed that he was investigating the Chu family’s territory but, in actual fact, he was squatting outside Chu Xuan’s courtyard.

In the eyes of anyone who saw him, he was not a person, but a rock.

Even a truth realm expert would not be able to tell the difference.

Chu Xuan did not care about the purpose behind the Black Moon Tower’s visit. He was now fishing for bigger fish.

According to his understanding of the rules of the Black Moon Tower, since they had accepted the commission, they would definitely do their best to complete it. Otherwise, the Tower’s reputation would be damaged and their ability would be called into question.

If one intelligence officer failed, they would send out even stronger intelligence officers.

If he continued fishing like this, he would eventually catch a big fish that would satisfy him.

There was no need to catch too big a fish for the time being. After all, the Black Moon Tower’s waters ran deep. If he caught too big a fish, he was afraid that he would be dragged into the water.

Slowly, step by step, he would lower the hook into the deep waters.

One day, he would fish out the biggest fish.

Chu Xuan then patiently waited for the second fish to take the bait.

Three days passed.

The intelligence officer did not return with the information.

Wan Chang frowned. Did something happen?

Was the Chu family feigning weakness on the outside? Did his officer need more time to investigate clearly?

The Black Moon Tower’s mission had to be completed as soon as possible. Only then would it display the Black Moon Tower’s ability and strength.

And as the Tower Master, the rate at which missions were completedwould showcase the level of his ability, which directly correlated with his performance review and promotion chances.

Therefore, Wan Chang gave Shao Hu the order to return.

Regardless of whether the latter had completed the mission or not, after receiving the order, he had to return and report the progress.

Another day passed.

Shao Hu had yet to return.

Something was wrong!

Wan Chang frowned. Did the Chu family manage to capture Shao Hu?

Although he was not an elite intelligence officer, he was still an old hand when it came to covert investigation missions like these.

Wan Chang sent an elite intelligence officer to carry out the mission and also to investigate what had happened to Shao Hu.

With an elite intelligence officer taking action, Wan Chang relaxed.

No matter what, the Chu family would not be able to detect or capture an elite intelligence officer, even though this elite intelligence personnel had just been promoted.

A day passed, but the elite intelligence personnel did not report back with any information.

Wan Chang was not in a hurry.

Given Shao Hu’s incident, the Chu family would definitely have become cautious, so it was expected that his elite intelligence officer would need to spend a little more time to complete the mission.

To Wan Chang’s surprise, the client, the sect leader of the Purple Moon Kingdom’s heretic cult, Hu Quan, actually came personally.

“We commissioned your Black Moon Tower quite a few days ago, and yet there is still no result?” Hu Quan asked with a gloomy face.

“Sect leader Hu, don’t worry. Our Black Moon Tower will handle this matter easily!” Wan Chang said confidently, “Just wait for two or three days. Our investigation will definitely yield a result.”

The branches of the Black Moon Tower were everywhere. The client could commission it to any Black Moon Tower branch in any place. As long as it did not exceed the capabilities of that branch, the mission would be transferred to the branch of the Black Moon Tower in the place where the mission was commissioned.

Only when the difficulty of the mission exceeded the capabilities of the branch would there be an intervention from a higher level.

Therefore, the Black Moon Tower had always been known for its efficiency.
