Becoming a Wizard by Starting From the Mind Closure Technique

Chapter 775: Chapter 239 Door_1

The Imperial Court… no… The Imperial Palace knows more about Death Valley than anyone else.

As a staunch confidant of Emperor Kangqian, Angel knew more about the inside story than those who planned against Governor Hu in this court.

Angel actually knew that the greatest peculiarity of Death Valley lies in that the Longevity Peach Tree sustains its peach fruits by drawing on the vitality of human beings.

The reason for driving the martial artists of Jianghu into the valley was not because they did not want to lose the strength of the Imperial Court, or because the Imperial Court planned to reduce the power of Jianghu.

It was simply to satiate the Longevity Peach Tree.

Once satiated, the object buried under the Longevity Peach tree could be opened.

According to the royal secret, the last time it happened, when the condition was just about met, the opening of that object was destroyed by a human immortal martial artist at the peak of Hollow Void stage, who had not much time left to live.

Once the Longevity Peach is removed from the tree, the seal under the roots of the tree would take effect again.

There is no possibility of opening that object again then.

This time, Death Valley has finally arrived at the time when that object can be opened again, the Emperor Kangqian decided to eliminate the threat in advance.

Forcing the martial artists of Jianghu to enter Death Valley, under the guise of exploration, was actually a delivery of a meal, and was just one of the many strategies.

Angel was thinking about it and spaced out for a moment, not paying attention to the monitor picture.

“Sir…sir, there’s a situation.”

At that moment, a local civil officer who had come over to pledge allegiance, noticed that no one else had found anything unusual, gritted his teeth, and reminded him.

“Hmm?”

Angel glanced at him displeasingly.

Yet, his gaze, devoid of malicious intent, frightened the officer so much that his soul almost left his body.

The local government had experienced one earthquake after another in a short span of time.

No one knew when or why someone would fall from their position, be imprisoned, or die miserably.

The Ministry of Education had taken in many families of the guilty officers.

Many of the world’s sisters and nieces of the past had fallen into it and were stained by the world’s dust.

This officer had even taken the time to console them, truly left something behind.

Thinking about the weeping sisters and nieces, the officer became even more afraid.

He feared that if he was not careful, his wife and daughter could end up in the same situation, relying on the exchanges and donations of others to survive.

But there was no use in regret now, this officer gritted his teeth: “Sir, the ones you’ve highlighted earlier, both daughters of Hu Shengqing, have disappeared.”

“Hmm?”

Hearing this, Angel was outraged, and immediately turned his attention to the monitor.

Hectic, he found that in the video, he really couldn’t see the figures of the five-member squad and Hu Songqi.

“What’s going on?”

After staring directly at the monitor for a while, which showed nothing but the forest in the valley, Angel finally asked in a faint voice.

The civil officer responded, “Hu Shengqing’s illegitimate daughter entered the Peach Forest, and his biological daughter’s team entered a white fog, after which we lost sight of them.”

“Is that so?”

“I can confirm.”

Angel gazed deeply at the civil officer who spoke with such certainty, exposing a smirk, “Good! You’re doing well!”

“Thank you for the compliment, sir.”

The officer immediately kneeled and kowtowed.

“Ha ha ha…”

Feeling the scholar, who always claimed to be of noble character and high prestige, such a shameless minion in front of him, provoked a hearty laugh from Angel.

What a wonderful feeling it was.

“Stand up. I propose you to be the Deputy Governor. I hope you won’t let the emperor down, let the court down, or let me down!”

“Thank you, sir.”

The civil officer kowtowed again before standing up, and stated, “I am at your command, sir.”

“Good.”

Angel nodded in response and returned to watching the surveillance footage.

He would like to see what kind of commotion the two daughters of Hu Shengqing could cause.

The bigger, the better.

Only in this way, can the supposed rebel conspiracy of Hu Shengqing be effectively squashed, and his execution go unnoticed in this world.

The civil officer let out a long sigh of relief.

Not only had he managed to save his own life, but he had also been promoted three ranks.

Good, very good, the risk he took was worth it.

He would return to the city tonight, share this good news with his former sisters and nieces, and bring some joy to their miserable lives.

In Death Valley.

Hu Songqi entered the Peach Forest/cliff and passed out.

The five-member team safely walked over the cremation ground on the ice crystal path created by Hu Suqi.

However, at the end of the path, there was a heavy fog.

As per Link’s perception, this thick fog, apart from covering, had no other harmful effects.

It could perfectly use this fog to shake off the ongoing surveillance of the Imperial Court, so he led the team straight into it.

The biggest two difficulties of walking in the fog are, one is the reduction of visibility, and the second is the difficulty in breathing.

After all, the particles are large, the respiratory system naturally resists.

But these two points could not stop the five-member team.

Hu Suqi took the initiative to cast a technique without a word, summoning a fist-sized light ball hanging in front, illuminating all directions.

At the same time, Link finally made a move, constructing five air filtration light shields with a secret technique.

“What kind of technique is this?”

Hu Suqi was extremely surprised whilst pondering about the invisible but tangible air filter light shield in her hand.

She felt more and more that Link’s techniques truly had their own system, a kind of technique different from Ancient Witchcraft, Taoist Technique, Ancient Witchcraft, and Evil Witchcraft.

“Just use it. It’s not something that can be explained in a few words.”

Link was not being secretive, he really could not explain.

When he cast a technique now, except for teleportation, after being pointed out by Li Shuwen, he pondered deeply about the principle.
