Chapter 155 The Unforgiven Lord
As if she had noticed what Zhao Guanxiang was thinking, Shui Yuexian turned her head slightly and faced in the direction of Zhao Guanxiang.

But she didn’t say much, and said calmly: “The clothes are on the rack, you can put them on yourself.”

Zhao Guanxiang did not dare to ask more questions. Regardless of whether the Imperial Master could see it or not, he still bowed to her obediently, and then trotted to the shelf nearby to get his clothes.

After he had put on his clothes, he looked around his room curiously.

The Xuntianjian is seven stories high, but Zhao Guanxiang has never been to the top floor.

He entered the Astronomical Patrol at the age of fourteen, and now at the age of nineteen he has become a captain of the Astronomical Patrol. This speed of promotion is not slow, but five years have passed, and this is the first time he has come to the top floor of the General Office to meet the real behind-the-scenes controller of the Astronomical Patrol – the National Master Shui Yuexian.

After just a quick glance, he was surprised.

The seventh floor of the Sky Survey Observatory is empty.

Apart from the alchemy cauldron in the middle of the room, there was no other furniture, not even a table or a chair. The only things were the soft wool mats covering every corner.

In addition, the northwest wall of the room was completely demolished, leaving no obstructions and facing exactly the direction of the imperial palace.

Mizunotsuki was standing on the edge of the top floor, with her back to Zhao Guanxiang. Although her eyes were blocked by silk, she gave the impression that she was gazing at the imperial palace.

The wind blew in from outside, making her white skirt rustle.

Zhao Guanxiang only looked at the imperial teacher’s back for a while, and then focused his attention on the alchemy furnace.

He was a little curious about what was in the stove. He only remembered that he seemed to be wrapped in something sticky.

Just as Zhao Guanxiang was about to approach the alchemy furnace, Shui Yuexian’s voice sounded again:
“I don’t recommend you open the furnace and take a look. Most people find it hard to tolerate what’s inside. Even if they just take a look, their minds may be affected.”

These words made Zhao Guanxiang, who was about to reach for the lid of the alchemy cauldron, suddenly retract his hand.

He stared at the alchemy cauldron. Was there something so dangerous inside?

What surprised Zhao Guanxiang was that the Imperial Master still had his back to him and had not turned around. How could he see his little movements behind him?

Shui Yuexian turned around and said to Zhao Guanxiang, “Although you have a good affinity with the ‘Lord of the Unforgiven’, few people can endure the pain of being compatible with the Holy Corpse. Your will is stronger than I thought.”

“Lord Wuwang?” Zhao Guanxiang was somewhat puzzled and asked the Imperial Master with a bow, “What is that? Please enlighten me, Imperial Master.”

“Lord Wuwang…you can regard him as a former powerful man.”

Mizunotsuki walked towards Zhao Guanxiang, her bare feet as white as jade stepping on the soft wool mat without any sound.

“When a warrior reaches the realm of supernatural powers, he will have the ability to be immortal. Even if his soul is destroyed, his body is immortal. The remains of a warrior who has fallen above the supernatural power realm are called holy remains.”

As she spoke, she appeared in front of Zhao Guanxiang.

Shuiyuexian raised her hand and gently pressed it on his chest.

There is the Huangting position that nourishes the primordial fetus.

Zhao Guanxiang only felt a fragrant breeze blowing between his nostrils. He lowered his head slightly, not daring to look at the imperial teacher who was right in front of him.

This playboy who always hangs out in flower shops, at this moment, shows his innocent boyish side, with his toes digging on the wool blanket on the floor.

The Imperial Master gently pressed Zhao Guanxiang’s chest with his right hand, his voice still clear and ethereal:

“I will repair the damage to your foundation with my holy bones, which means I will use them to repair your damaged embryo. You will gain some of the magical powers of the Lord of Innocent, but this is not a good thing.”

“After entering the third-grade magical power, you need to expel the remaining power of the Lord of Wuwang from your body, otherwise…” Zhao Guanxiang was stunned when he heard that there were side effects: “What will happen otherwise?”

“You will be replaced by the ‘Unfortunate Lord’.”

“?!”

Borrow…resurrection from the dead?

The expression on Zhao Guanxiang’s face suddenly froze, the corners of his mouth twitched, and many folk tales he had heard emerged in his mind.

In addition, he suddenly thought of the statue of “The Lord of the Three Lamps” that he had snatched from the salvation believers in Baiyun Temple.

According to my adoptive father, the remains of the “Spirit Lord Above the Three Lamps” are sealed in that statue, and the members of the Red Lotus lineage of the Savior Cult are collecting the remains of the “Spirit Lord Above the Three Lamps”, hoping that this fallen “god” can be resurrected one day.

In this case, the remains of the spirit statue in my adoptive father’s hand and the “holy remains” used by the national master to repair his own injuries are the same thing, right?

This “Lord of Wuwang” and the “Spiritual Lord Above the Three Lamps” might have been people of the same level when they were alive.

I just don’t know who is stronger, one against the national teacher?
Zhao Guanxiang felt a little uncomfortable when he thought that there were some other people’s remains integrated into his body.

But at least, no matter what, he has felt that his Huangting, which was originally like a sieve, has been completely renewed, and the Yuantai nurtured in the Huangting is no longer riddled with holes.

Even… even more powerful.

He just felt as if he had a new heart. Every time his heart beat, the blood and energy it pumped out was many times stronger than before, and his whole body seemed to have endless strength.

After Zhao Guanxiang briefly examined the body, he couldn’t help but show joy on his face, and bowed to the Imperial Master: “Thank you for your help, Imperial Master.”

This gratitude comes from the bottom of my heart.

The Imperial Master waved his hand and said, “No need to thank me. You asked me to help you, and I consumed a portion of the Holy Relic. You need 300,000 Merits to compensate for this.”

“How much…how much?!”

Zhao Guanxiang suddenly looked up at her, his face instantly filled with surprise.

Three hundred thousand merits? !

This “merit system” is a system that has only been implemented in the Astronomical Patrol. Its initial purpose was to absorb martial artists who were not affiliated with the court to join the Astronomical Patrol and introduce talents.

As long as you can become an outer member of the Sky Patrol, you can receive tasks issued by the Sky Patrol, and accumulate merits after completing them.

Merits can be exchanged for official positions, gold and silver, and even magical weapons, magic skills, elixirs… Everything imaginable can be exchanged from the Patrol Observatory.

This policy was quite effective. It provided martial artists with an additional way to seek refuge in the imperial court, and also allowed the imperial court to absorb many powerful martial artists.

Among the three major generals of the current Patrol, “Man-Slayer” Li Shengtian was born in a martial arts sect and is the most typical example.

As an official official of the Observatory, Zhao Guanxiang could naturally enjoy the benefits of this “merit system”, and even official officials could get a 20% discount.

And 300,000 merits were enough to allow Zhao Guanxiang to leap directly from the original “school lieutenant” to “Lang Jiang” and soar to “Zhonglang Jiang”.

This is the rank second only to the general and three major generals in the Astronomical Observatory.

It is conceivable what a horrifying number these 300,000 meritorious service members were for Zhao Guanxiang.
