Longevity by Picking up Attributes in the Battlefield

Chapter 804  Chapter 326: Xu Fu Panics! Ying Zhengʼs Golden Words Triggered! The Whole Story Unfolds!

However!

Xu Fu might possess cultivation, but he hasnʼt detected the presence of Ying Bu and Dunruo.

Evidently.

The Immortal Envoy behind him hasnʼt given him much either.

Under the escort, or perhaps custody, of the Imperial Guard Army.

Xu Fu entered the city.

And sat on a carriage.

Ren Xiao accompanied him in the carriage.

”Commander Ren.”

”I havenʼt returned to Xianyang for nearly eight years, and I never imagined Xianyang has undergone such drastic changes, becoming even more prosperous.” Xu Fu said with a smile.

Ren Xiao nodded calmly: ”Xianyang is the center of the world, naturally so.”

”Has anything happened over these years?”

”I noticed the army seems to have changed.”

”The soldiers seem to have become more formidable and robust.” Xu Fu asked cautiously with a tranquil expression, probing.

The soldiers of the Capital Garrison radiated with vigorous energy.

And Ren Xiaoʼs energy was even stronger, as was that of the surrounding Imperial Guards.

This naturally left Xu Fu extremely puzzled.

To Xu Fuʼs probing, Ren Xiao merely glanced at him and said casually: ”Youʼll understand after Chef Xu enters the palace.”

”But after so many years, where on earth has Chef Xu been, without a word?” Ren Xiao countered.

”The Great King longs for immortality, so naturally, I went to seek the Immortality Elixir for him.”

”Iʼve been searching overseas all these years.” Xu Fu said with some pride.

Such an explanation seemed flawless to Xu Fu.

Immortality!

This was the task Xu Fu begged for when he departed Xianyang.

And Ying Zheng had agreed.

After all, Xu Fu had left deeply trusted by Ying Zheng.

Upon hearing Xu Fuʼs words.

Ren Xiao sneered inwardly: ”Immortality Elixir, as if he could find such a thing. If it werenʼt for the Emperorʼs instructions, I would have imprisoned him directly. If not for the Crown Prince, the Emperor might have been harmed by this scoundrelʼs Poison Pill long ago.”

”So has Chef Xu found the Immortality Elixir?” Ren Xiao asked without showing his emotions.

”The Immortality Elixir hasnʼt been found, but I found an elixir that can extend life. Once the Great King takes it, it can extend his life by a hundred years.” Xu Fu declared proudly.

Clearly.

With this life-extending elixir, Xu Fu was confident he could earn Ying Zhengʼs trust. As for whether the elixir was real or fake, Xu Fu was confident the King of Qin would believe him.

After all, his current means to the King of Qin, and indeed to the entire populace of Shenzhou, appeared to be great Divine Skills, the skills of an Immortal.

”Extend life by a hundred years?”

”Chef Xu has truly made a contribution to Qin.” Ren Xiao sneered inwardly, but outwardly feigned surprise.

”The Great Kingʼs decree, I naturally give my all. As long as the Great King trusts me, one day I shall find the Immortality Elixir for him.” Xu Fu stated confidently.

”Chef Xu.”

”Now Shenzhou is unified, Huaxia is one.”

”The Great King is no longer just a king; he is the First Emperor, His Majesty.”

”Did you not know upon your return?” Ren Xiao gazed at Xu Fu with some suspicion.

”Well... Commander Ren.”

”Upon my return, I was moved by the Immortals and Gods, who directly used great Divine Skills to send me to Xianyang.”

”Thus, I did not pass through other places.” Xu Fu replied with a smile.

This was not a lie, but the truth.

If he had traveled through the lands of Shenzhou, sailing back to Qin, Xu Fu would naturally be aware of many of Qinʼs circumstances. But as soon as he arrived, he entered Xianyang territory, knowing little of the current state. He even got stopped at the city gate, having to use the Tian Xuan Mirror for entry.

Upon hearing the words Tian Xuan Mirror.

Xu Fu was bewildered.

He had no idea what it was about.

”Youʼve been away from Qin for too long to know the many changes in Qin.”

”But youʼll find out in due time.” Ren Xiao chuckled, looking at Xu Fu with deep meaning.

”By the way, Commander Ren.”

”What exactly is the Tian Xuan Mirror?”

”Why is it required for entering the city?” Xu Fu asked, puzzled.

”The Tian Xuan Mirror is the identity certificate for Qinʼs citizens. Without it, one cannot enter the city.” Ren Xiao replied calmly.

”Thatʼs peculiar, isnʼt the identity certificate a household registration? Why name it after a mirror?” Xu Fu was incredibly puzzled.

Ren Xiao couldnʼt be bothered to explain further.

Under the protection of the Imperial Guards.

The carriage soon arrived at the Imperial Palace.

”You arenʼt carrying any weapons, are you?” At the hall entrance, Ren Xiao looked at Xu Fu and asked.

”Naturally.” Xu Fu laughed lightly.

He spread his hands wide, indicating Ren Xiao could search him.

With a wave of Ren Xiaoʼs hand.

Two Imperial Guards stepped forward and thoroughly searched Xu Fu, finding no weapons.

”Mere mortals.”

”You have no idea what a Storage Magic Treasure is.” Xu Fu sneered internally.

However.

Ren Xiao was unaware of Xu Fuʼs thoughts.

If he knew, he would sneer as well.

The Crown Prince bestowed the Tian Xuan Realm upon Qinʼs citizens, and the Tian Xuan Mirrorʼs functions were even greater for Qinʼs officials.

It not only opened a Cultivation Space for training but also provided a Storage Space, the size of which depended on oneʼs rank.

Take Ren Xiao, for example.

As the Imperial Guards Leader, akin to the Main General, his Storage Space reached 500 cubic units.

For ordinary noble Daqin Elite Soldiers, their Storage Space was one cubic unit.

The Tian Xuan Mirror was indeed powerful, but opening so many Storage Spaces required energy, which was only possible with the Spirit Stone Mine. Without it, so many spaces couldnʼt have been opened.

Whether or not these storage capabilities would be available to all Qinʼs citizens in the future would depend on Contribution Points exchanges.

This will gradually be implemented.

”Hear ye, Your Majesty.”

”Xu Fu awaits outside the hall.”

Ren Xiao stood outside the hall, loudly declaring.
