My Cultivation Starting from Archery

"Master is not here either...

"If Junior Brother really wants the item inside, you can try to work with the people from Seeking Immortal Tower, but remember, they are usually reliable on ordinary days, yet once it involves anything related to Immortal Trace, they become crazed, and it's possible they might even slaughter each other, let alone you."

"Besides.

"I speculate that it's easiest for a Cao Family Member to acquire the object."

"After all, it's something left by Grand Ancestor; surely he wouldn't want just anyone to benefit from it casually."

Chen Sansi nodded: "Senior Brother, what do you think Cao Xie left behind, could it be some treasure?"

"Most likely... cough cough cough..."

Fang Qingyun started coughing.

Chen Sansi hurriedly went to get some hot water: "Senior Brother, otherwise, I'll go back first, and we can talk after your injury is better."

"No need, it's nothing serious."

Fang Qingyun took a deep breath to calm himself: "What Cao Xie left behind must be something that could help him stabilize the Cao Family's realm, and possibly, an item that could lead to the Immortal Realm."

"To the Immortal Realm?"

Chen Sansi looked somewhat yearning: "Is there really an Immortal Realm?"

"There is."

Fang Qingyun changed the subject: "These matters, Master and I, originally planned to discuss with you after you've grown a bit more, but now that we've come across them so early, it's not harmful to talk about it now.

"Junior Brother.

"In your mind, what is the Immortal Realm, and what then, is an Immortal?

"It's not that I'm asking this, it was Mr. Mei who asked Master a long time ago."

Mr. Mei?

That Immortal?

Chen Sansi thought about it and naturally answered: "Isn't the Immortal Realm the land of the immortals, with endlessly beautiful scenery, and the Immortals are naturally carefree and immortal beings beyond this world. Isn't this what those who seek the path to immortality pursue?"

"Master and I, initially, thought so too."

Fang Qingyun sat in the courtyard, looking at the bright moon in the night sky, his expression somber: "But the truth is not so; the Immortals I've met are the most selfish, most greedy people, cunning and insatiable, stopping at nothing for eternal life, no different from the officials of this mortal world."

"Do you know, our Master actively abandoned the Immortal Path; otherwise, by now, he should still be very young..."

"Let's not dwell on the past.

"In short, I want to tell you, Senior Brother, that the pursuit of immortality may lead to great disappointment. Even so, do you still want to give it a try?"

Chen Sansi's silence gave the answer.

"So be it."

Fang Qingyun said with resignation: "Master and I, we never intended for you to walk this path, but since you wish to, naturally, it's up to you, and no one will stop you.

"What's more, even if you don't touch on these matters, with Master around, your future achievements will not be less than His Majesty's."

"How could I know if I don't try?"

Chen Sansi, considering his journey in this life, naturally wanted to explore and see.

As for what the Immortals are really like...

One look suffices.

"Then just do as you wish."

Fang Qingyun reminded: "Take care of yourself; always act within your capabilities."

"Don't worry, Senior Brother; I won't force things."

Chen Sansi said, sending his Senior Brother back to rest in his room before taking leave.

[Cultivation Technique: National Guardian Dragon Spear. Meridian Passage (small achievement)]

[Progress: 1250/2000]

Two days later.

Chen Sansi woke up early, first practiced the spear, and then went to work at Ziwei Mountain.

A part of the palatial residence had already been tidied up.

The Crown Prince and the Twelfth Prince had settled in a side palace, and some higher-ranking officials were accommodated within Tai Lake Mansion, and finally, the eunuchs from the palace.

There were several hundred eunuchs who had come.

Among them were the Chief Eunuchs from Ritual Supervision.

Including...

That eunuch from Seeking Immortal Tower, Liao Shizhong.

His Disguise Technique was rather crude, and with Chen Sansi's Qi Observation Skill, the fact that his Martial Arts Cultivation as well as his spiritual cultivation were identical made it easy to deduce they were the same person.

Eunuch Liao.

That was his real title.

After observing for two days, there were quite a few from Seeking Immortal Tower.

A rough estimate put the number at over a dozen, some officials, some eunuchs, and some posing as clerks.

Then there was the Incense Fire Divine Sect.

The Incense Fire Divine Sect was even more straightforward.

They simply disguised themselves as the Hu Ben Army.

This Qi Observation Skill is truly handy.

For Chen Sansi, it was like he had an identity scanner, able to see through anyone's real status at a glance.

"Brother Chen!"

Yan Changqing found him: "My father has prepared a feast in the mansion and invites Brother Chen to join us. I sincerely hope you'll honor us with your presence."

"Mr. Yan's father?"

Chen Sansi of course knew.

Yan Changqing's father was none other than the son of the Chief Minister, known as the Young Pavilion Master, Yan Maoxing, who held multiple positions, including Minister of Ministry of Industry, and was a major figure in the court.

It was rumored in the court that Yan Liang was advanced in years, and once he completely stepped down, Yan Maoxing would succeed him as Chief Minister.

"Is there something the matter?"

"There shouldn't be."

Yan Changqing replied, "Brother Chen, please make sure to come, or else if you don't, I'm going to be whipped by my father when I get back."

"I understand."

Chen Sansi answered nonchalantly.

Barely a few steps away, he encountered another familiar figure blocking his path.

"General Chen."

Cao Fan stood in the way: "Could you do me the honor of sharing a drink to bury the hatchet tonight?"

"Hatchet?"

Chen Sansi replied, "Princely Heir, why would you say this, what grudge is there between you and me?"

"I know, General Sha's demise was no accident."

Cao Fan continued: "Regarding past events, I'm willing not to hold grudges; it's my fault after all. I, I hereby..."

He struggled for half a day before finally squeezing out two very difficult words.

"I apologize to you!"

Cao Fan bowed deeply, with hands clasped in respect.

"Princely Heir must not do this!"
