A hundred li, for Zhou Heng now, was actually not considered far.

With the agility +3 base attribute boost and the deployment of the Lingbo Weibu movement technique, he moved like a series of phantoms, traveling at an extremely fast speed through the shades of night.

He passed through several campsites on the way, terrifying the camp guards, who thought they had encountered some legendary creatures of the wild mountain.

Within less than half an hour,

Zhou Heng arrived at the location of the Medicine God Sect.

The entrance to the Medicine God Sect was not situated on a mountain, nor did it resemble a typical sect’s layout; instead, it was a colossal palace complex located on flat ground near a large lake and backed by high mountains.

If Zhou Heng hadn’t known in advance that this was the Medicine God Sect’s headquarters, he would have almost questioned whether this place was the Prince’s traveling palace—indeed, it wouldn’t be wrong to describe it as such.

According to what Chen Xingjiang had said, these headquarters of the Medicine God Sect were mostly built to resemble the Prince’s palaces.

Such a gigantic palace complex, naturally, had many guards at its entrance, no fewer than twenty.

And their strength was not weak; most of them were at the Ninth Grade level, and the two leading guards even possessed the cultivation realm of the Eighth Rank Martial Path.

The twenty guards were divided into two rows, each holding long spears, standing in parallel to form what seemed to be a long corridor.

Zhou Heng did not attempt any disguise; once he confirmed that this was indeed the spot, he charged forward, channeled his inner qi, spread his arms, and got ready to attack.

This brazen, undisguised assault obviously did not escape the eyes of the people guarding the city. As soon as Zhou Heng approached, the twenty guards spotted him.

“Who goes there?!”

The guards shouted in unison, with disbelief etched across their faces. They had never seen anyone so audacious as to attempt to breach the Medicine God Sect single-handed.

It was a suicide mission!

However, their battle readiness was exceptionally strong.

As the cry rang out, all twenty spears moved at once, trying to attack the rapidly approaching Zhou Heng.

But how could these guards’ speed compare to Zhou Heng’s?

Moving with the Lingbo Weibu technique, Zhou Heng was like multiple phantoms, passing by the guards like a gust of wind.

Yet with each person he passed, Zhou Heng’s palm would strike down, leaving each guard’s expression frozen in a daze, and their eyes emptying.

In the end, Zhou Heng breezed through the gates of the palace complex effortlessly, while the twenty guards behind him, whether their chests were caved in, heads shattered, or necks broken, lay almost without exception, lifeless.

The strength of these individuals, ranging around the Ninth and Eighth Grades, was quite ordinary to Zhou Heng now, as feeble as ants, easily crushed by hand.

Besides, these individuals were disciples of the Medicine God Sect; the martial arts they practiced and the medicinal resources they utilized all came from the Sect and were tainted with the blood of innocents.

They deserved their fate!

Therefore, Zhou Heng did not show the slightest mercy; of the twenty guards, nineteen died on the spot, each killed with a single blow, with no need for a second strike.

The sole survivor, barely hanging onto life, was playing dead—he held his breath and even used his inner qi to envelop and suppress the movements of his organs to reduce their pulsation, lest he alert Zhou Heng and seal his own doom.

Zhou Heng seemed completely unaware, adjusting the masked scarf over his face as if he wanted to tightly cover his cheeks to prevent his face from being exposed.

Then, he leaped up as if flying, instantly delivering several palms like scattering falling petals, striking the closed gates of the palace.

Boom!

The seven-zhang-tall city gates collapsed inward, creating a deafening, thunderous noise that instantly awakened everyone within the palace complex.

Immediately after, Zhou Heng rushed inside.

Before the city wall, the guard who had “luckily” survived finally dared to open his eyes. His eyes were bloodshot, he gritted his teeth in fury, continuously spitting blood, and yet still he murmured a name under his breath.

“Chen Xingjiang!”

When “Chen Xingjiang” had attacked him, the mask had been blown up a bit due to the high speed.

He witnessed, “accidentally,” the face of the masked man.

The man was clearly the Prefectural Governor of Fangzhou, Chen Xingjiang!

Damn it!

The damned Chen Xingjiang!

The guard raged inwardly, using the last bit of his strength to dip his finger in blood to begin writing on the ground.

Chen… Xing… Jiang…

Before he could finish the last character, he took his final breath.

In the last moments of his life, the guard from the Medicine God Sect unwittingly assisted Zhou Heng.

As for why Chen Xingjiang had come here to kill, why Chen Xingjiang targeted the Medicine God Sect, why a Great Grandmaster on the brink of the Fourth Rank would need to strike himself to kill them…

The guard didn’t have the strength to consider these things; due to his grievous wounds and excessive blood loss, his thoughts could not flow well. His mind was filled only with Chen Xingjiang’s face.

All he remembered was the murderer—

Chen Xingjiang!

…

Boom!

The intense collisions and the tremors of the palace continued unabated.

Zhou Heng had already engaged with the strong opponents inside the Medicine God Sect.

And, “accidentally,” his face mask was pulled off.

“Chen Xingjiang! You dare to come and kill us in your mere hair-transformation disguise, do you know what you’re doing?”

“Aren’t you afraid of retribution from the Sixteenth Prince?”

“Chen Xingjiang, have you forgotten where your official hat comes from?”

“Go to hell! A mere peak of the Seventh Rank hair-transformation avatar trying to annihilate us?”

“Wait for me, I’m going to Zhongzhou to file a complaint, to tell the Sixteenth Prince!”

“We will never let you go!”

Furious roars erupted.

But Zhou Heng, remaining in the guise of Chen Xingjiang, was utterly unmoved. His expression was indifferent, his gaze icy, looking at these Evil Sect followers as if they were already dead.

Bang!

Thump!!

“Ah!!”

“Wu, ahh!!”

With successive dull thuds and screams rising, this palace complex shrouded in nightfall finally regained its peace. No one spoke anymore, and there was only one person standing.

This was Zhou Heng, still wearing the face of Chen Xingjiang.

Although the territory of the Medicine God Sect was vast, encompassing an entire palace complex, there were not many powerful martial artists.

The only ones worth noting were the few Evil Sect brethren previously mentioned by the pharmacist Lu and the deputy master of the Medicine God Sect—all at the Peak of the Seventh Rank in their cultivation realms.

They were the same people who earlier had loudly cursed him during their confrontation.

These individuals also excelled in various strange and sinister techniques, and indeed, their strength was not ordinary.

With Zhou Heng only able to use the Falling Petals Sky Flying Palm, he had to exert a great effort before he managed to deal with these few individuals.

After taking care of them, the remaining disciples of the Medicine God Sect were but chickens and dogs, effortlessly cleared away by Zhou Heng like chopping vegetables.

“Too weak.”

Zhou Heng let out a breath. By now, he had killed all the enemies within the Medicine God Sect, yet he had only obtained five copper Fortune Bags.

It could be said to be astonishingly weak.

Meanwhile, as Zhou Heng exterminated the Medicine God Sect.

A “Medicine Man” who had been locked in the Divine Medicine Palace, originally to be used for drug testing, suddenly noticed that there seemed to be no guards outside.

So, he mustered his courage and tried to push open the large doors of the Divine Medicine Palace.

Unexpectedly, they really opened!

He used to be beaten just for approaching, but now he had actually managed to open those large doors!

Could he finally see the light of day again?

This “Medicine Man’s” attempt also attracted the attention of other “Medicine Men.” When they saw the doors of the Divine Medicine Palace being pushed open, they all surged with excitement, cheering.

Most of these “Medicine Men” of the Medicine God Sect had been captured from nearby villages and towns, and many were directly abducted from the County City. They had always hoped that someone would come to rescue them, to kill all those demons of the Medicine God Sect.

But they waited and waited in vain, only to watch helplessly as one after another was used for drug tests, then lost their lives through myriad bizarre methods due to the various effects of the drugs.

This had led them to despair.

Now, the gates of the Divine Medicine Palace had actually been pushed open, and the moonlight pouring in from outside kindled a flicker of hope within them, and they all ran out.

They escaped the Divine Medicine Palace, which to them seemed like a hell on earth.

And then, these people saw the bodies strewn everywhere, the bloodshed, and even severed limbs and mutilated remains—such a terrifying scene stirred excitement within them.

Because the dead, the mutilated corpses, were all dressed in the robes of the Medicine God Sect disciples!

They were the enemies they had wished to flay and eviscerate, to mutilate a thousand times over!

Now, they were all dead!

Excellent!

They were all dead, all of them!

Afterward, these “Medicine Men” also saw the tall figure standing in the midst of the dead, the somewhat unfamiliar yet familiar face.

Chen Xingjiang!

Prefectural Governor of Fangzhou, Lord Chen Xingjiang!

“Prefectural Governor!”

“Thank you, Prefectural Governor, for saving our lives!”

“How merciful you are, Prefectural Governor!”

These “Medicine Men” knelt down to Zhou Heng, one after another. The events of just moments ago were seared into their memories for good.

If anyone were to tell them that the person who destroyed the Medicine God Sect and saved them was not Chen Xingjiang, they would certainly be spitted to death by the spit of these hundreds of Medicine Men.

How could it not be!

They had seen it with their own eyes; it was Lord Chen Xingjiang!

There was absolutely no mistake, no room for error!

…

The next morning, in the Fangzhou County City.

Pretending as if he had just woken up, Zhou Heng lazily rubbed his eyes as he walked out of the Luxuriant Inn, planning to buy breakfast.

After exterminating the Medicine God Sect the previous night, he had returned directly to the County City under the pretense of the limits of his disguised body’s strength, without bringing the Medicine Men with him.

However, he was not worried that no one would know about what he had done the night before.

The “Medicine Men” who had survived a series of drug tests and had greatly enhanced physical and strength were likely to have quite a few among them make their way back on their own that night.

Just as Zhou Heng stepped out of the inn, he bumped into the hurriedly approaching Song Yingshu and his two companions. They spoke with shocked expressions, “Daoist Zhou, something big has happened! The Medicine God Sect has been destroyed, and it’s said that the Prefectural Governor did it!”

“What?!” Zhou Heng’s eyes widened in disbelief, his face registering incredulity as if he had heard something utterly unbelievable, exclaiming, “How, how is that possible?!”
