979 You’re in Trouble!
Ning Yan, Wu Jianwu, and the captain didn’t know the exact location of the apothecary. At that moment, they looked at the ruined city in surprise.
Xu Qing immediately disappeared from the sun. When he reappeared, he was already in the earth city. He stood beside the original location of the small apothecary with an ugly expression.
The apothecary that used to be here had long turned into ruins. The surroundings were chaotic and the pieces of the plaque could be seen on the ground.
Ling’er also appeared beside Xu Qing. She looked at the apothecary in front of her and was stunned.
The captain and the others also appeared one after another. Looking at the ruins, the captain coughed.
“Little Qing, did we come to the wrong place? There’s no apothecary here.”
After the captain finished speaking, he walked over and squatted there to pick up some plaque fragments on the ground. He then turned his head and looked at Xu Qing.
“Little Qing, it seems that there was indeed a apothecary here… Eh, look at this word. It says green.”
The captain exclaimed.
Xu Qing’s expression was ugly.
Ning Yan blinked and spoke in a low voice.
“Boss, my condolences…”
A cold glint appeared in Xu Qing’s eyes. As for Wu Jianwu, it was clearly impossible for him to give up on this opportunity. He let out a long sigh.
“Once a vast sea turned into a cesspool, alas, red flowers turned into dog droppings. If you don’t believe, just look up…”
Before Wu Jianwu could finish speaking, the parrot flew out and couldn’t help but cheer excitedly.
“Has the heavens ever shown mercy to anyone?!”
Xu Qing’s body emitted a cold intent as he glanced at the parrot. At this moment, Ling’er also realized the situation, and her small face puffed up with anger. This was her home, and it had been destroyed like this.
The shadow sensed Ling’er’s anger, so it emitted furious emotions.
The Diamond Sect’s ancestor flew out and the fish bone emitted a buzzing sound.
“Master, Madam, with just a word from you, I’ll immediately slaughter everyone here!”
“That’s right. I want to see who has such guts!” Li Youfei wasn’t willing to be outdone either. He immediately stepped forward and spoke angrily.
After all, the Bitter Life Mountain Range was his hometown. Master’s apothecary had actually been destroyed here. He felt that he had to stand up for Master. No matter who did this, he had to express his stance clearly.
At this moment, with Xu Qing’s group’s arrival, the gray-robed cultivators who had been busy in the earth city also noticed and surrounded them with unfriendly expressions in their eyes.
However, before they could get close, a rainbow suddenly sped over from afar. Ignoring the many gray-clothed cultivators in the earth city, this rainbow arrived in front of Xu Qing and transformed into a figure. It was Chen Fanzhuo from the Earthly Growth Sect.
Ever since the collapse of the apothecary, he had been paying attention to this place. Hence, he rushed over immediately with a sorrowful expression and bowed solemnly to Xu Qing.
“Master, it’s my incompetence. I couldn’t defend the master’s medicine shop.”
Xu Qing expressionlessly looked at Chen Fanzhuo and calmly spoke.
“Who was it?”
“It’s an external force. They occupied this place and chased everyone away, wanting to build this place into a sect. The leader is a dwarf who calls himself Daoist Mu.”
Chen Fanzhuo hurriedly spoke. However, just as he was about to continue, Li Youfei’s eyes suddenly widened.
In that instant, it was as though 100,000 lightning bolts had exploded in his mind, transforming into a enormous buzzing sound. He suddenly rushed in front of Chen Fanzhuo and hurriedly spoke.
“Are you sure it’s a dwarf named Daoist Mu?”
Chen Fanzhuo was stunned and hurriedly nodded.
His nod was no longer as simple as 100,000 heavenly lightning bolts exploding. It was millions of lightning bolts exploding at the same time.
Li Youfei trembled and he wailed inwardly. He turned and knelt in front of Xu Qing with a plop.
“Master… A misunderstanding. This must be a misunderstanding…”
“That Daoist Mu is a registered disciple of mine… I’ll handle this matter. I’ll deal with it immediately!!”
Li Youfei was horrified. When he thought of how his registered disciple had actually caused such a monstrous calamity, his heart trembled violently. He wished he could find the other party and slap him to death.
Xu Qing was expressionless as he calmly glanced at Li Youfei.
This gaze reminded Li Youfei of the experiments the other party had done on him during this period of time, as well as what he had seen and heard on the way. He instinctively glanced at the old man.
He trembled again and spoke loudly.
“Master, I’ll deal with it immediately!”
As he spoke, he hurriedly spread out his divine consciousness. After locking onto a location, he rushed over immediately. Before he left, his Nascent Soul cultivation erupted and he shouted at the gray-clothed disciples in the surroundings.
“I’m your sect master’s master. All of you, retreat. If you dare to move, I’ll kill you later!”
These words and his Nascent Soul cultivation instantly formed an intense intimidation, causing the expressions of everyone in the surroundings to change drastically and they didn’t dare to step forward.
Li Youfei erupted with all his might and headed straight for the location his divine consciousness had locked onto. He was already cursing inwardly, ‘You damned scoundrel! What kind of courage did you gain to actually dare to destroy this terrifying apothecary!!
Although he cursed him, he still valued this disciple very much. However, because he had too many enemies, he didn’t tell the other party about his origins.
Right now, he couldn’t watch the other party court death, so he erupted with all his speed and rushed into the temporary residence of Daoist Mu’s sect.
He barged his way toward the house where his disciple’s aura was located.
In the house, Daoist Mu knelt respectfully in front of a black-robed old man and lowered his head to listen to his new master’s guidance on his cultivation.
“Daoist Mu, your cultivation level is alright but your cultivation art is impure. If you want to cultivate my spells, you have to unravel the messy things you’ve learned in the past.”
“Your aptitude isn’t bad, but it’s a pity that you acknowledged the wrong master. This is the reason why your cultivation has stalled over the years.”
The black-robed old man calmly spoke as a hint of imperceptible greed flashed in his eyes. He had other reasons for taking in this Daoist Mu. Just as he was about to continue speaking, his heart stirred and he lifted his head to look outside, frowning slightly.
When Daoist Mu heard this, he became even more respectful and spoke in a low voice.
“Disciple was stupid previously. Sigh, I didn’t know that there was someone better and made the wrong choice…” Just as he finished speaking, a familiar voice suddenly rang out from outside his residence.
“Daoist Mu, get out here!”
Daoist Mu’s eyes widened and he was stunned for a moment. The moment he turned his head, the door of the house he was in rumbled and was ruthlessly forced open from the outside. Li Youfei’s figure appeared there.
The instant he saw Li Youfei, although the other party’s appearance was unfamiliar, his gaze, voice, and the energy fluctuations from his body allowed Daoist Mu to immediately recognize that the other party was his mysterious previous master.
This made him a little confused. Just as he was about to speak, Li Youfei stepped forward and grabbed him, wanting to take him away.
“You rascal, follow me quickly and apologize to Master. This way, you might still have a chance of survival.”
Daoist Mu couldn’t resist. At that moment, his heart was still churning. Just as he was at a loss, a cold snort rang out from the mouth of the black-robed old man.
“Impudent!”
With the cultivation of the Spirit Repository, the snort he emitted was like thunder. Li Youfei’s body paused and he took a few steps back. Blood flowed from the corners of his mouth as he glanced at the black-robed old man.
“Master Black Pupil!”
“Li Youfei, so this Daoist Mu was your former disciple. However, I’ve already taken him in as my disciple recently. He has no more relation with you,” Master Black Pupil said calmly.
Li Youfei naturally saw that his disciple had changed sides. He nodded and glanced at Daoist Mu.
“What’s your explanation?”
Daoist Mu hesitated and cupped his fists at Li Youfei.
“Senior…”
“Alright, I understand.” Li Youfei interrupted Daoist Mu. If it was in the past, he might have been angry about this, but now, he heaved a sigh of relief.
“Alright, you said it. You have nothing to do with me. From now on, you are not my disciple. However, Daoist Mu, seeing that we were once master and disciple, let me remind you… You’ve caused big trouble.”
Li Youfei shook his head. As soon as he finished speaking, footsteps rang out from outside the house and waves of screams echoed. The figures of Xu Qing and the others had already arrived and were walking toward the house.
This scene caused Daoist Mu’s heart to skip a beat. As Master Black Pupil glanced the outside and then at past Xu Qing and the others, his expression remained unchanged, and he spoke slowly.
“Just a few Nascent Soul cultivators dare to act like this?”
“Daoist Mu, the techniques I taught you before, watch closely how to use them in actual combat.”
As he spoke, Master Black Pupil stood up calmly. He placed his hands behind his back and walked out of the house. His Spirit Repository cultivation erupted at this moment and a secret repository appeared above his head.
There seemed to be a volcano in the secret repository that spewed out a enormous sea of fire. There was also the faint sound of the Heavenly Dao roaring inside, causing the rules in the surroundings to change. Countless illusory shadows appeared in the surroundings.
Those phantoms were sinister and roared one after another.
His mighty aura stirred the clouds and the wind.
After that, he took a second step and landed in front of Xu Qing and the others. The secret repository behind him formed a enormous suppression and his cultivation base spread out, forming a black runic imprint.
This runic mark eventually grew to 10,000 feet in size, and as it transformed the sky, it emanated a formidable power that caused the ground and rocks to collapse, creating an astonishing pressure.
“Disciple, watch carefully. This is the Great Demon Seal I taught you just now!”
Master Black Pupil calmly spoke and casually waved his hand, wanting to suppress these useless chickens and dogs in front of him.
At that moment, a strange look appeared in the captain’s eyes. Ning Yan grinned, Wu Jianwu proudly lifted his chin, and Xu Qing was expressionless.
They directly ignored the runic mark. All of them turned around and bowed to the heir at the side.
“Grandpa.”
The heir was teasing the parrot. When he heard this, he lifted his head and glanced at Master Black Pupil.
It was just a glance.
Master Black Pupil’s heart skipped a beat and he directly went numb. With a plop, he fell to the ground. The large black seal in the sky dissipated, the secret repository disappeared, and everything dissipated.
Only blood spurted out of every orifices in his body, turning into a blood-red fountain.
And his blood was evidently not as abundant as the captain’s, so the force he expelled was somewhat inferior.
The surroundings instantly fell silent.
