Chapter 1881: The Medicine Clan Young Master’s Threat
"Master, they must have heard that Wang Shanhe is dead and come to denounce you!"
The maid Huanhuan said angrily.
"Don’t see them, tell them to leave!"
Bing Xuanqing said coldly.
"Bing Xuanqing, you’re not planning to hide and refuse to see us, are you?"
But just as she finished speaking, a booming voice like a great bell resounded across all of Medicine King Mountain.
"It’s Du Hulong! Maybe even the Medicine Clan Young Master Du Qiuran has come too!"
The maid Huanhuan said in some panic, her little face turning deathly pale.
This Du Hulong was Du Qiuran’s personal trusted aide; his arrival almost certainly meant Du Qiuran was coming in person.
Not long after, the tall and burly Du Hulong brought two people up to Medicine King Mountain.
"Miss Bing, I thought you were hiding and refusing to see me."
Du Hulong let out a cold laugh, his attitude arrogant as he sized up Bing Xuanqing.
"The reason I came to you today is very simple. Wang Shanhe came to get the Nine Heavens Fire Jade Ginseng from you, and ended up dying miserably together with his disciple. I’m sure you’re very clear on what exactly happened."
Du Hulong said with a cold laugh.
"No... it’s not... Wang Shanhe’s death..."
The maid Huanhuan wanted to explain, but Du Hulong cut her off: "Haha, there’s no need for you to explain the details. The Young Master already knows about this. He told me to come inform you in advance: seven days from now, he will personally come to Medicine King Mountain. You can explain it to the Young Master face to face then!"
"What? The Young Master is still coming in person?"
"Of course. The Young Master is currently in seclusion, and seven days from now just happens to be when he comes out. At that time, matters between Miss Bing and the Young Master, as well as Wang Shanhe’s affair, will all be settled together. I’ve said all I can say. And you, Zhao Huanhuan..."
Du Hulong’s frivolous gaze swept over Zhao Huanhuan, brazenly roaming over her body.
He had always coveted Zhao Huanhuan, but with Bing Xuanqing around, he naturally didn’t dare touch her.
But as long as Du Qiuran took Bing Xuanqing back to the Medicine Clan, then Zhao Huanhuan would definitely belong to him.
"You..."
Zhao Huanhuan was so furious her chest heaved.
"Master, what do we do? Before, the Young Master had no excuse, but this time Wang Shanhe’s death gives him every reason. In a week, how are we supposed to deal with it?"
Everyone fell silent, including Bing Xuanqing.
"If Master’s legs were healed, this wouldn’t be a problem."
"It’s just that after Young Master Zhao left the Huang Family, he vanished without a trace! If Young Master Zhao were here, with his strength he really wouldn’t fear the Young Master!"
...
A group of maids chattered all at once.
By nightfall, the news that Ye Chenfeng had slain three ancestral elders of the Huang Family and the Luo Family Sword Dao prodigy Luo Qingxuan had practically swept across the entire Divine Land, everyone shocked by this mysterious expert who had appeared out of nowhere.
Capital City, Heaven Group.
Long Ma and Long Hou and the others were all present, each of them with a puzzled look.
Suddenly, someone came running to report.
"Well? Have you found anything?"
Long Ma asked immediately.
"Chief, we did find a little information. This mysterious man previously appeared at the Lingnan Ye Family and even took something from Ye Tiannan..."
"What thing?"
"Ye Tiannan’s fiancée is the Miaojiang Holy Maiden, who bears the Gu Poison King. It’s said that back then the mysterious man threatened Ye Tiannan’s life and took the Gu Poison King!"
Long Ma and Long Hou were both utterly shocked: "What does he want the Gu Poison King for? It’s said he went to the Huang Family also to take two Spiritual Medicines."
"Yes, he even went to Medicine King Mountain before, took away the Nine Heavens Fire Jade Ginseng, and directly killed the Medicine Clan master Wang Shanhe and his disciple. His strength is simply terrifying."
Long Hou muttered after a moment of pondering, "In just a few days he’s offended four great super-clans in a row, and even someone as monstrous as Luo Qingxuan isn’t his match. Just who is this guy?"
"Now, a lot of hidden forces and experts are slowly surfacing, but we basically know all those factions. Even powers like the Divine Realm, Underworld Island, and Hidden Tower are under our watch, but this one man alone, we know absolutely nothing about."
Long Ma swept a glance over his subordinates: "Keep watching. Wang Shanhe is dead; the Medicine Clan won’t let this go."
Meanwhile, in another mysterious organization in the Divine Land.
Here mountains ringed the area, white mist billowed, strange flowers and herbs grew everywhere, and there were even white cranes and other exotic beasts roaming about, like some paradise outside the mortal world.
On the mountain stood pavilions and towers.
The world’s essence energy here was incredibly rich, dozens of times denser than elsewhere.
The path of cultivation is to excavate the treasures within oneself, refine essence into Qi; "essence" naturally refers to heaven-and-earth Spiritual Energy or Spiritual Medicines and the like.
In a place where the world’s Spiritual Energy is so dense, cultivating is naturally several times faster than in other places.
And within a pavilion halfway up the mountain.
"Reporting to Sect Master, we investigated... in the end we even investigated Zhuo Feiyang, but even Zhuo Feiyang doesn’t know that man’s true identity."
The one speaking was Lu Yunting; what he had uncovered was almost the same as what the Dragon Flame Heaven Group knew.
A faint voice drifted through the room: "That Luo Qingxuan’s strength was extraordinary; his final move was even more shocking. Although he was only at the Early Stage of the Heavenly Rule Realm, his strength was no less than mid Heavenly Rule; he could rank in the top twenty on the Dragon Ranking, maybe even top fifteen. Yet he still couldn’t block a single sword from that mysterious man!"
"This person is indeed terrifying. I’ve already sent people to Xiang Province. We should be hearing back soon!"
"Haha, crushing four great super-clans in a few days, he actually makes me think of someone..."
A cold glint flashed in Lu Yunting’s eyes: "Sect Master, you must be referring to Ye Chenfeng, right?"
"Of course. Only he could stir up such a commotion. But based on his personality and style of doing things, it absolutely shouldn’t be like this. This mysterious man wears a mask, and his Cultivation Technique and moves are so strange, they can’t help but make me think of them."
Lu Yunting’s gaze flickered: "Sect Master, could it be you mean..."
"That’s right, exactly who you’re thinking of."
"Sect Master, I’ll keep a close watch on this matter. I hear the Medicine Clan Young Master Du Qiuran will come out of seclusion in seven days, and he’ll go straight for that man!"
Lu Yunting said.
A certain manor in Xiang Province.
There was a natural lake in the manor, and in front of the lake, Qie Gewala sat quietly in meditation.
Before Ye Chenfeng went into seclusion, he had given him two Spiritual Medicines. After Qie Gewala refined them, his strength had indeed advanced by leaps and bounds.
He was even more impressed by the spot Ye Chenfeng had chosen; it had been a week and no one had come to disturb them.
"Hm? Something’s off. Seems like someone’s approaching!"
Qie Gewala sensed someone drawing near.
"Young Master Zhao is in seclusion right now. If a Heavenly Realm expert shows up, I definitely won’t be able to hold them off. Then Young Master Zhao might be in danger too!"
Qie Gewala’s expression turned wary as he went outside and watched the foot of the mountain.
In the dense forest halfway up the mountain, several figures were darting rapidly.
The one leading them was actually a Black Snake.
"There really is a manor here. My darling Blackie is truly useful, sniffing out the scent of Spiritual Medicine! Young Master Zhao, right? Your Spiritual Medicines are ours now!"
The speaker was a small, skinny old man, his skin shriveled, almost nothing but a skeleton.
The others were the same, as if they had crawled out of a grave.
