Zhao Qingyao, Pavilion Master of the Spirit Talisman Pavilion

Chen Changqing and Xiao Hei were practicing body refinement in the courtyard, their forms like phantoms and their bodies like ghosts.

The Soul-Devouring Creation Black Lotus burned fiercely in Chen Changqing's mind, and his perception was exceptionally strong.

He heard everything his sister and brother-in-law said.

It seems that my brother-in-law doesn't want him to stay in Dayang County.

However, during dinner, my sister told me that my brother-in-law had arranged for him to work as a patrolman in Qing Shi Town.

Moreover, they hardly do any work and just receive a salary.

Once my brother-in-law gets rid of that vixen, going to Qing Shi Town would be a pretty good idea.

There's little work but plenty of money, and I have ample time every day to train my body, practice archery, and hone my talisman-drawing skills.

We'll develop in Dayang County when we're stronger in the future.

Chen Changqing stopped thinking about anything else and focused on training.

After practicing for another 15 minutes, I felt that my physical fitness was no longer improving, so I started practicing archery.

He first placed a piece of wood in one corner of the yard, then stood in the other corner and drew his bow to shoot an arrow.

Arrows pierced the air and struck the wood, forming a neat row.

Chen Changyue and Zhao Jingming, sitting down, couldn't help but show surprise again upon seeing this scene.

Chen Changyue couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "Gou Dan's archery skills have become so amazing! It seems he has really grown up a lot during his time in Qing Shi Town and has learned to work hard."

My physical fitness and endurance have improved significantly, thanks to a stroke of luck.

But his archery skills improved dramatically, which was definitely the result of practice, little by little.

This is even more important.

This made Chen Changyue very gratified.

Zhao Jingming's eyes also brightened slightly, and his opinion of Chen Changqing changed a bit: "He has indeed made great progress. It seems that this kid has been practicing archery diligently since arriving in Qing Shi Town."

He originally planned to find Chen Changqing any random talisman master to avoid wasting his favor.

But since Chen Changqing knows how to work hard, then let's give him a chance to find the most powerful talisman master in the Zhao Immortal Clan.

After all, this bastard is Yue'er's own younger brother.

Chen Changqing ignored their words and continued to focus on his practice.

His movements were fluid and powerful, each arrow precise, as if he were one with the bow and arrow.

Little Black Tiger continued to race, training diligently. Wearing a weighted vest weighing a full 400 pounds, the training was proving highly effective.

He noticed that there was much more warm energy surging through his body than during his usual training sessions.

For the first hour or so, the warm energy strengthened his physical fitness and enhanced his spiritual power.

More than an hour later, the effect of strengthening physical fitness decreased significantly, but the effect of strengthening spiritual power within the body remained very good.

This ever-increasing feeling is just too wonderful.

The next morning, Zhao Jingming led his men to Qingshi Town to capture the fox spirit.

Chen Changqing and Xiao Heihu continued their training.

Around noon, Zhao Jingming returned from catching a demon in Qingshi Town, looking displeased.

Seeing that Zhao Jingming's expression was off, Chen Changyue asked, "Jingming, isn't Wang Qiaoqiao a vixen?"

Zhao Jingming shook his head and sighed, "Wang Qiaoqiao really is a vixen. After I confirmed Wang Qiaoqiao's presence..."

He immediately led the Golden Thunder Leopard and the other immortal masters inside.

The golden thunder leopard instantly severely injured it, but that cunning fox was too clever; it had actually dug a very deep cave in its own bedroom.

She transformed into a fox and instantly darted into the cave.

My subordinate Zhao Shitou immediately ordered his contracted spirit beast, Shadow Sable, to dive into the cave and give chase.

But the burrow that the vixen dug had more than a dozen branches.

The shadow weasel couldn't catch up; the sly fox escaped in the end.

A fox spirit at the sixth level of the demon realm actually escaped right under his nose.

This made Zhao Jingming very unhappy.

Chen Changyue comforted her, "That vixen is really too cunning; she's just a little fox spirit."

"If you can't catch it, you can't catch it. I made your favorite braised beef."

This morning, Zhao Jingming sent people to deliver a lot of daily necessities, including a lot of meat.

Chen Changyue cooked a sumptuous meal for Zhao Jingming.

Little Wan'er ran over with a piece of candy: "Daddy, I saved a piece of candy for you, have a taste."

"Okay, okay." The childish voice instantly dispelled Zhao Jingming's displeasure, and a smile appeared on his face.

Zhao Jingming ate the candy, picked up Xiao Wan'er, and said with a smile, "The candy Xiao Wan'er gave me is really sweet."

"Hehe." Xiao Wan'er laughed happily upon hearing this.

Upon hearing this, Chen Changqing was somewhat disappointed; the vixen hadn't actually been killed.

He still has to go back to Qingshi Town to work as a patrolman.

However, the fox spirit is cunning; once discovered, she will not linger in the same place.

Today, the fox spirit was not only discovered but also seriously injured; she must be terrified.

I probably won't dare to go back to Qingshi Town again.

Regardless, I still need to improve my cultivation level as soon as possible.

Chen Changyue called out, "Changqing, dinner's ready."

"They're here."

Lunch was plentiful, with both meat and vegetables.

The food was delicious and visually appealing, and everyone was very satisfied.

After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, Zhao Jingming looked at Chen Changqing: "Changqing, when I came back, I went to see Wang Chengwu, the village head of Qingshi Town."

Wang Chengwu has already agreed to make you a patrolman in Qing Shi Town, and you will hardly be assigned any miscellaneous tasks.

After you go back, report to Wang Chengwu. Then just wait to collect your monthly salary.

Chen Changqing respectfully thanked him, "Thank you, brother-in-law."

Zhao Jingming nodded: "Eat some more. After you're full, I'll take you to find the number one talisman master of the Zhao Immortal Clan."

Chen Changqing was overjoyed and quickly said, "I'm full, we can go now."

"Walk."

Zhao Jingming led Chen Changqing and Little Black Tiger to the Spirit Talisman Pavilion.

The Lingfu Pavilion of the Zhao Clan is located in the center of Dayang County. It is an ancient and magnificent building.

The pavilion soars into the clouds, with upturned eaves and carved beams and painted rafters, making it look exceptionally grand.

A huge plaque hangs in front of the pavilion, bearing the three large characters "Lingfu Pavilion" in vigorous and imposing strokes.

Upon entering the Spirit Talisman Pavilion, Chen Changqing felt a rich spiritual energy wash over him.

The interior of the pavilion was furnished in a simple and elegant style, with various talismans hanging on the walls, emitting a faint glow.

The pavilion was bustling with people, some whispering to each other, others carefully selecting talismans, creating a lively atmosphere.

Zhao Jingming led Chen Changqing straight up to the second floor and into an elegant room.

Inside the room, a man in his fifties was sitting at a table, holding a talisman pen and intently drawing a talisman.

He was dressed in a blue robe, with a thin face, bright eyes, and neatly combed hair, making him look extremely energetic.

The faint fluctuations of Qi Refining Level 6 magic power emanated from his body.

There was also a monkey next to the man, which was slightly larger than an average monkey.

Its entire body is covered in short gray fur, with faint electric flashes occasionally appearing between the hairs, as if it contains the power of thunder within its body.

The monkey has long, powerful arms and sharp, hook-like nails. Most striking are its pale gold pupils, sharp, dagger-like eyes, and pointed, erect ears.

Its tail is thick and powerful, with a silvery-white electric spark at the tip, emitting a slight electric arc when it swings.

He exuded the aura of a Lesser Demon at the eighth level of cultivation.

This person is none other than Zhao Qingyao, the head of the Lingfu Pavilion.

The monkey is Zhao Qingyao's contracted spirit beast—the Thunder Monkey.
