Jinzhou City.
At this moment, Liang Sheng “died” again, a death that is extremely low-key, attracting no one’s notice.
By this time, Liang Sheng had returned to his youthful appearance. He now stands in front of his own tombstone, feeling exceptionally tranquil.
Initially, he came to Jinzhou City by following a subtle intuition. After living there for sixty years, he felt it was a satisfying experience.
Even until now he still doesn’t know why he had that intuition to return to Jinzhou City, but during the sixty years in Jinzhou City, his cultivation speed was indeed slightly faster than it was in other places before.
Maybe it’s because of his different mindset? Or perhaps the geomancy pattern of Jinzhou City is more in line with his destiny?
Liang Sheng didn’t know for sure, but since it was a good thing, he naturally didn’t pursue it further, believing that time would eventually present the answer.
Ever since Zhou Qianming returned to the royal capital, Shenzong fulfilled his promise by bestowing the Emperor’s Sword and conferring the title of the Champion Marquis. This position does not conflict with the hereditary princely rank, causing a sensation nationwide.
But a twenty-year-old martial arts prodigy indeed deserved such glory, filling the citizens with jubilation.
Because it signifies the prosperous fortunes of Great Zhou. With such a powerful country, how could the people of Great Zhou not be happy?
However, the people of Great Zhou didn’t know that Liang Sheng’s wood carvings indeed had some magical properties for the Zhou family bloodline.
Perhaps it’s their sensitivity towards seeking fortune and avoiding evil that allowed them to better comprehend the essence of the wood carving, somehow leading to several breakthroughs in their cultivation in just over a month thereafter.
Though the proportion isn’t high considering the total number of the royal family, it still brought considerable joy to the Great Zhou Imperial Family.
Meanwhile, people discovered that the most recent among the myriad wood carvings was from just a few months prior.
What this meant, many people understood clearly. Hence, Emperor Shendi of Great Zhou issued a special decree, ordering an investigation in Jinzhou City to locate the carving master.
In the face of such a situation, Liang Sheng had no choice but to fake his death again. Since the identity of the carver had been seen by quite a few people, and this was after all the Great Zhou Royal Family with whom he already had a karmic connection, why would he want to get involved again?
Still, Liang Sheng had no intention of leaving Jinzhou City because there were still spiritual plants planted in the rarely frequented area outside the city, which he couldn’t give up.
In addition, he had been cultivating at a faster speed in Jinzhou City these years. He might not know the reason, but he certainly wouldn’t leave without reason.
Furthermore, who would have guessed the craftsmen who seemed so old before would now look like a vibrant young man?
Consequently, Liang Sheng’s life became peaceful once again. The grand-scale search in Jinzhou City had nothing to do with him. Over the following years, Jinzhou City officials never stopped searching.
This was a mission given by the emperor himself. Even if it seemed hopeless, who would give up? After all, if successful, they could shoot to fame.
But how could they possibly find this mysterious carver? So, all they could do was leave behind the legend of a hidden master, which made the Great Zhou royal family wish they could have met him earlier.
