“Big brother, what are these?” Chu Yi asked curiously.
“Some little trinkets.”
“What little trinkets?”
“You don’t need to know.”

“Big brother——!”
“They are things of the evil sects.”
“Then forget it.” Chu Yi abandoned her curiosity without hesitation.
Bai Ning霜 said, “The Empress said you are amazing, solving the four Grand Masters all by yourself. You are good at killing Masters, and just as good at killing Grand Masters.”
“Cough cough,” Chu Minghou coughed lightly twice: “Yuan’er, you should still restrain your sharpness a bit.”
“Yes.” Chu Zhiyuan agreed.
He knew Chu Minghou's concerns.
It was too easy for him to kill Grand Masters, easily causing other Grand Masters to be wary.
The imperial court’s Grand Masters were fine, they only feared him, but the evil sect’s Grand Masters would definitely find a way to join forces and destroy this huge threat.
The evil sect Grand Masters had strange methods, hard to guard against, and very difficult to completely defend against.
The reason Chu Zhiyuan wanted to destroy these evil sects was this point.
He could defend for a while, but not for a lifetime.
He couldn’t possibly stay in the inner city of Yujing City all the time, guarding the Qing Wang Mansion.
If he didn’t completely resolve these hidden dangers, it would be really difficult to go out with peace of mind.
He could skip the Moon Invitation Palace, but what about that blessed land secret realm? It very likely contained the secret to reaching a higher level.
So, forced by the situation, he had to completely resolve the threat of these evil sects.
“Restraining your sharpness is something you should do, but, the evil sects must be severely dealt with!” Bai Ning霜 snorted.
She would rather destroy or cripple the evil sects than be restrained by fearing their revenge.
After Chu Zhiyuan finished eating, he returned to Tingtao Courtyard, a black box was placed in the small pavilion in the courtyard.
This was a large Spirit Sealing Box.
Chu Zhiyuan wasn't in a hurry to open it, first he closed his eyes, reached out and pressed on the lid of the box, sensing carefully.
With a flick of his hand, he opened the lid of the box, inside were twelve statues.
After Chu Zhiyuan looked at these statues, he felt that the Jade Cauldron Sect was the most normal.
These twelve statues were all human-shaped, but either their feet were wrong, or their hands were wrong, or their ears,
or their eyes, or their heads.
Varied and strange.
Looking at these statues, one would guess that the extraterrestrial forces behind these evil sects were not proper.
Yet, to ignore this possible reality for the sake of power, one can only say that people's hearts are greedy, and profit makes them lose their minds.
Unfortunately, the Jade Cauldron was not inside.
However, the Jade Cauldron Sect was no longer a concern, and no longer needed to be worried about.
The four Grand Masters who were approaching the end of their lifespan had all come, and the remaining ones had not reached the end of their lifespan.
Grand Masters cherish their lives, whether they are from famous orthodox sects or evil sects.
Upon reaching Grand Master, these evil sect experts were not as affected by extraterrestrial forces.
So, these evil sect Grand Masters were not as impulsive, extreme, or terrifying as Masters and Xiantian experts.
Now, the evil sect Grand Masters to worry about were those whose lifespans were reaching their limit.
The Jade Cauldron Sect should not have such Grand Masters.
Other evil sects should still have them, so he couldn't wait for them to come to his door, he had to strike first and completely destroy them.
He picked up a thousand-handed human statue.
As if a thousand hands were waving, densely packed like a blooming flower.
A small note was attached to the back of the thousand-handed human statue, with the words “Thousand Illusion Sect” written on it.
Chu Zhiyuan revealed a smile.
He hadn't heard much about this Thousand Illusion Sect.
He closed his eyes and used his super-sense to observe.
Streams of red lines came from all directions, gathering on this statue.
Some red lines were dark in color, some were light.
Some lines were thick, some were thin.
The depth of color represented the depth of their cultivation, and the thickness of the lines represented the distance.
The darker the color, the stronger the cultivation, the lighter the color, the weaker the cultivation.
The thicker the red line, the closer the distance, the thinner the red line, the farther the distance.
He first looked for thick lines, then looked at the color of these thick lines, and then carefully sensed them.
The Thousand Illusion Sect disciples were all in the outer city, a total of four disciples, all of whom were Xiantian cultivation.
Further away were villages or deep mountains dozens of miles outside the city.
The strongest Master was in a mountain village hundreds of miles away.
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head and put down the statue of the Thousand Illusion Sect.
He picked up a four-handed statue.
One hand each in the front, back, left, and right, forming a cross shape, with the name Lieyuan Sect written on the back.
Countless red lines also gathered on it, thick and thin, dense and numerous.
There were three Xiantian realm disciples in the outer city, no disciples within ten miles outside the city, and two Master disciples hundreds of miles away.
Then there was the six-legged, three-handed Nine Yuan Sect, with two Xiantian realm disciples in the inner city, one Master and six Xiantian experts in the outer city.
There were ten Xiantian within ten miles and two Masters within a hundred miles.
Chu Zhiyuan slowly nodded.
The strength of this Nine Yuan Sect was not bad, with many disciples and not weak cultivation.
It seemed they had killed many people.
He continued to look down, and finished looking at all twelve statues in one breath.
Putting down these statues and closing the black Spirit Sealing Box, Chu Zhiyuan sighed.
He looked at Zou Fang.
Zou Fang stood respectfully beside the pillar of the small pavilion, and seeing Chu Zhiyuan's gaze, he said: “Young Master, are these evil sect disciples all in Yujing City?”
“Without exception, there are disciples in the city,” Chu Zhiyuan sighed: “Yujing City is indeed alluring, they know it is a dragon's den and a tiger's lair, but they still run in to die without hesitation.”
Zou Fang said: “They can actually hide from the Zhenwu Division and the Grand Master’s Mansion, they are becoming more and more difficult to deal with.
Chu Zhiyuan nodded.
This was true, the Zhenwu Division and the Grand Master's Mansion had never relaxed their vigilance against the evil sects, and had been preventing them from entering, but they still hadn't been able to completely prevent them.
Obviously, they were all proficient in concealment methods, able to hide from the Zhenwu Division and also hide from the Grand Masters.
Zou Fang said: “Does Young Master want to clean them up?”
“What do you think?” Chu Zhiyuan asked.
Zou Fang said: “This servant thinks it would be better to keep them.”
Chu Zhiyuan said: “Use a trick within a trick, cast a long line to catch a big fish?”
Zou Fang said: “Send people to monitor them, once their sect takes action, we can know something from their reaction.” Chu Zhiyuan shook his head: “If they were ordinary sect experts, or even secret agents from Da Meng and Da Zhen, we could deal with them this way, but they are evil sects, they will harm innocent people at any time, Da Jing cannot tolerate them, and neither can heaven and earth!”
“Yes.” Zou Fang nodded solemnly.
“Evil sect demons, everyone in the world should punish them!” Chu Zhiyuan said lightly: “This is not just something to say, it is better to follow it without violating it.”
He then said: “…You don’t need to rush to become a Grand Master, I’ll see if I can find a way to help you.”
“Yes.” Zou Fang clasped his fist gratefully.
He understood why Chu Zhiyuan didn't want him to rush to be promoted to Grand Master.
He didn't want to consume more lifespan.
He had already prepared to leave, after all, Chu Zhiyuan had already become a Grand Master, if he was still a Master, he would not be able to withstand the pressure of the Grand Master's aura.
How could he attend to him and become a personal eunuch?
Chu Zhiyuan raised his head and looked towards the northeast, his eyes flashing: “Tonight I will begin to clear them out, you should come with me.”
Zou Fang agreed.
He wanted to say that these evil sect demons did not dare to do evil in Yujing, they had to hide their identities to avoid attracting attention, especially the attention of the Zhenwu Division.
But he never had the habit of refuting Chu Zhiyuan, so if Chu Zhiyuan ordered, he would obey.
