Chapter 166: Black Impermanence
Inside the room, Chen Yang seemed to sense something. He looked up toward the air, as though peering through space, then smiled gently.
He, too, was quite intrigued by Li Yanchu.
The Celestial Master was even willing to part with a treasure like the Clearheart Jade Pendant... This Daoist Master Li must have a rather interesting background.
A thoughtful glint flickered in Chen Yang’s eyes.
The Court of Judicial Review was one of the Three Judicial Offices, but more often, it handled cases involving wandering cultivators, demons, and monsters of the jianghu.
So naturally, he was well aware of how weighty a figure a Celestial Master of Mount Longhu truly was.
For a person of such stature and cultivation to show this kind of favor... It certainly wasn’t simply because of Li Yanchu’s current strength.

After returning to Qingyun Temple, Li Yanchu immediately mounted Blackie and sped off toward the remote mountains outside Wei City.
Blackie had grown even more formidable. Its speed was blinding, and its steps were as steady as iron.
There wasn’t the slightest jolt or bump. Its endurance outstripped that of even famed steeds, and its velocity left them in the dust.
Once they left the city limits and Blackie unleashed its full pace, it truly became like a howling gale, streaking across the countryside.
