"This small chamber of commerce must have been run by Zhong Qingyang or his associates in Yonglijie.
After receiving the shipment from the sect, they split the excess equipment and resold it locally for profit, while the rest was sent to the branch of the Aito Chamber of Commerce in Yongli Realm according to the contract."
"He needs to obtain Aito's seal before he can make a fake contract."
"Isn't this easy? He can either defraud the customer into using a blank page that has been stamped, or privately engrave someone else's seal. Given the meticulousness of this person, the former is more likely."
Jin Ziming slapped the case angrily and cursed in his mind: "Meng Yu, how could you be so stupid that you actually found such a scumbag as your Taoist companion?"
He said dejectedly: "Send the contract from the Aito Chamber of Commerce back to the headquarters and ask them to notify Yonglijie immediately and go to that small chamber of commerce to pick up people, if there are still people."
A few days later, information obtained from the five major sects was sent back one after another.
"Great Elder, within the designated five days, only two casual cultivators from Longyue Sect and Xiongying Sect were teleported out of the world, and none from the other three sects."
"I have identified that among the four, only Wadu, who left from Longyue Gate, was disguised and had his soul aura changed. He dressed up as a casual cultivator from Zhichunzhou and teleported to the Black Luo Realm." Qiubei Zhenjun
said.
"Vado is probably Zhong Qingyang.
"Great Elder, I will immediately send the information back to the headquarters and ask them to ask the Black Luo Realm to assist in the investigation." Shenghui said.
Jin Ziming did not answer, but looked at Qiu Bei and asked: "Great Protector, with this image, can the headquarters distinguish Vadu's true soul aura?"
"It's definitely possible, but it's a pity that I'm not good at cause and effect, otherwise I would be able to identify it without going to the headquarters."
"You can also check the transmission records in the area to see how he got from Shengxing City to Longyue Gate."
"That would be too troublesome. If he takes a detour and changes his appearance every time he teleports, it will be difficult to track."
"Great Protector, Yanyi practices the path of cause and effect, but she is only in the middle stage of integration, can she do it?"
"I'm not sure. It depends on your Madam's accomplishments in this matter." Qiu Bei hesitated.
"Well, pass the looks and auras of Zhong Qingyang and Wadu to the Yoda City branch, and bring them to Ranyi for identification. She once met Zhong Qingyang at a dinner party. It might be helpful."
"Shenghui, you have people go to Zhong Qingyang's residence, get his hair and clothes, and bring them to the great elder's wife. This will be useful for tracing the cause and effect." Qiu Bei added.
"Yes, the Great Protector reminded me well." The mangy man remembered that he had also used such items when dyeing clothes and casting spells.
Within two days, they received a reply from Fairy Ye: "We are more than 90% sure that Wadu and Zhong Qingyang are the same person."
The headquarters has been in frequent contact with Jin Ziming recently. The latest news is that the small chamber of commerce in Yonglijie that receives goods has been vacated. It is likely that they received a warning from Zhong Qingyang in advance.
Only ordinary local employees were traced. They were paid to work and had no idea of the mystery. As for the boss, there was no news about it.
Three months later, Lingyun Sect announced the punishment results:
"Expelled Zhong Qingyang and placed this person on a wanted list within the river system; Jin Ziming and Liu Yi failed in their management, lowered their monthly payments, and circulated criticism within the sect.
Jin Ziming is required to immediately review all businesses of Shunxianjie to prevent similar incidents from happening again, and to return to the headquarters for review within six months.
Different levels of punishment will be imposed on the contract review personnel at the headquarters and Shunxian Industry."
Soon, news came from the Heiluo Realm: Zhong Qingyang had disappeared into the vast sea of people after entering the country. It was difficult to trace for a while, but it could be confirmed that he had not left this world.
Four months later, Mu Yan's letter made the man even more worried: "Junior brother, there is something that makes me extremely guilty, but I have to tell you.
Meng Yu was promoted to Nascent Soul last year and after his cultivation was stable, he applied for an entry token to the Hongfeng Realm in the name of sightseeing and set out to travel in the near future.
Shortly after arriving, she lost track of her. After investigation by local colleagues, she changed her appearance and was sent to the Black Luo Realm under a false name. She disappeared completely immediately and was suspected of defecting to Zhong Qingyang."
After reading this, the reckless man couldn't help but feel angry. This apprentice was so unsatisfactory. Not only did he not draw a clear line with the dead man, but he traveled thousands of miles to seek refuge with him. How could this be "suspected"? It was clearly so.
He must return to the Hongqing Realm as soon as possible to review, and plans to visit Lin Xi and Shen Xinchen in the Magic Light Realm during his return trip.
Meng Yu's matter could not be taken care of for the time being. Even if he chased them to the Black Luo Realm, he didn't know where to look. Only by relying on his local colleagues and continuing to trace could he possibly find them.
Jin Ziming returned to Yoda City, spent three days with Ranyi, arranged everything, and then embarked on his return journey.
After passing through the Hongfeng Realm and returning to the Crazy Knife Peak of the Lingyun Sect, Chu Jing covered his head and face and cursed, and then he said bitterly:
"Zi Ming, you are a veteran, why are you so careless? You actually let your subordinates commit such a big case. In the years before he was discovered, that guy had already rigged up a lot of mining machines. I think this time it's...
Your punishment is still too light."
"Old Chu, it does not matter if you reduce the monthly payment, but the criticism within the sect is still significant enough."
"At least I didn't demote you."
"Is there any update from the Black World?"
"Not yet, but we will definitely find it eventually. What's more, your inconvenient apprentice eloped there again. The bigger the target and the more clues there are, the easier it will be to find it. Feng Jitang will send people to inspect it."
"Oh, this girl is so confused, it gives me a headache." The man sighed.
"Get ready. Tomorrow we will conduct a public review at Crazy Knife Peak. At that time, we will invite the internal affairs, foreign affairs, inspection and other officials to come to 'observe the ceremony.'" Chu Jing said jokingly.
"Okay." Jin Ziming frowned, and then asked: "Old Chu, has the storage ring that someone brought to the Magic Light Realm last time been delivered?"
"The middleman has been handed over to the demon cultivator named Wei Ran, and she will be responsible for transferring it."
"Oh, that's good, please!" The mangy man thanked Chu Jing sincerely, said goodbye to Chu Jing, and went straight back to the cave to prepare the review materials.
The next afternoon, in the hall of Crazy Knife Peak, people from all walks of life gathered together to learn from the experience and lessons learned from the front line.
With Jin Ziming's psychological quality and thick skin, he naturally didn't care about this little battle. After Chu Jing spoke to the inspector boss, it was his turn to reflect deeply.
After reviewing the project status of Aito Chamber of Commerce, Manghan said:
"With limited manpower, I indulged a salesperson and independently controlled a major channel account, laying the foundation for the future.
The sect has passed the stage of needing orders to survive. The harm of condoning fraud for personal gain is far greater than the few spiritual stones earned from the project.
In the distribution market, there are agents and price differences, which are most likely to breed corruption..."
He passed the examination smoothly, and that night, he gathered his friends for a dinner as usual.
Mu Yan has reached the Great Perfection of Nascent Soul. She is wearing a light blue dress, which makes her even more graceful. She is unhappy and has a look of shame on her face.
"Junior brother, I didn't take good care of Meng Yu. After Zhong Qingyang's accident, I noticed something strange about her. When I communicated with her, she always said she didn't want to talk about this topic, so I didn't force her. Who would have thought, we actually eloped, alas!"
"Sister, how can I blame you? She is already so old and has independent thoughts. You can't change her."
"But before you leave, please entrust her to me."
"I just asked you to supervise her practice. I didn't want you to be responsible for her behavior. Besides, even if I were here, there was nothing I could do." Jin Ziming said with relief.
To change the subject, he asked: "Is there any news about Youmao, Guang Liang and Rui Ying?"
"There have been letters exchanged all the time, and Yimao has been promoted to merge. Guang Liang and Rui Ying are both Nascent Soul Dzogchen, Xu Jieying is in the late Nascent Soul stage, and Senior Sister Shi has reached the peak of Dzogchen."
Mu Yanran has become an information relay station among friends and knows everyone's situation very well.
The mangy man nodded slightly and raised his glass in congratulations: "Junior sister Qin has broken through to fusion, and Wang Hai has reached the middle stage. Come, give them a toast."
Then he said the same old thing: "Qingfan, although you are in the late Nascent Soul stage, you are still a little slow, so you have to work harder. At our age, we cannot let our cultivation slow down our longevity."
"Zi Ming, every time you come back, you have to supervise my practice. It's really shameful. Don't worry, I'm sure I can break through to Dzogchen in the next few years." Chu Qingfan said sarcastically.
"That's good, how about Xue'er?"
"It's already perfect."
"Great! Qingfan, I have a question and I want to ask you."
"What's up?"
After introducing the way of faith, Mang Han raised the question of whether the exclusivity of the faith wheel could be broken.
"Qingfan, if you can transform the Xinlun, you can gather the power of faith from other monks. If a large-scale war breaks out, you can not only let the mortal stars contribute, but also create extraordinary power."
"This orthodoxy is very interesting. I need to study it first. Your idea is very bold. It might be a good topic."
"Okay, later I will give you a simple exercise technique and a few unused faith wheels. This matter is not urgent. You focus on cultivation and advance to Dzogchen as soon as possible. Then we can get down to business." The reckless man was worried that he would lead the other party astray.
Quick reminder.
The next day, he went to the Foreign Affairs Hall and asked them to help with the entry token and transmission permission for the Magic Light Realm. The other party reminded: "Elder Jin is returning to the Xianxian Realm. I suggest transferring through other realms."
"Why?" Jin Ziming asked curiously.
"A civil war breaks out in the Magic Light Realm. The good and evil factions are fighting fiercely. The situation is very chaotic."
The reckless man became anxious upon hearing this and hurriedly said: "I have something important to do and must go to the Magic Light Realm. Please hurry up and do it. The sooner the better."
While waiting for the token, he focused all his energy on guiding Mu Yan's practice.
After practicing Buddhism for hundreds of years, he no longer loves to look at beautiful women as he did when he was young. Instead, he feels that women who still have their charm are more interesting.
"Junior brother, after your guidance, I am confident that I will be able to refine Yang Shen within ten years and reach the peak of Nascent Soul Dzogchen."
"I used the Buddhist meditation method to worship the Yang God. I will tell you the experience and insights in detail. You should be able to understand by analogy."
Due to the war, the entry procedures were very slow, so the man simply took twenty days off to visit relatives at Ye's house.
When he returned to Faran City, he met his father-in-law and told him about Ranyi being pregnant with his daughter. The old man was very happy.
