Chapter 98: Receival Bead
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Shi Xueqin had been bluffing just now. She had deliberately displayed the threat of the faint light. If he had met someone else, he might have really held back.
Unfortunately, Shi Xueqin met Guo Linshan.
Guo Linshan wasn’t even afraid of holding a white candle to attract the ghost, so how would he retreat when he encountered a heavily injured Shi Xueqin?
Guo Linshan first destroyed Shi Xueqin’s dantian with one palm, turning her into an ordinary person, and then tied her up.
While he was tying Shi Xueqin up, he noticed that a jade pendant in Shi Xueqin’s arms was flickering slightly. Guo Linshan quickly took it off and began to control Shi Xueqin with all kinds of force according to what he knew, regardless of whether it was useful or not.
Junior Brother, what’s going on?”
After busying himself for a while, Guo Linshan came to Chen Fei and handed the jade pendant to him. He asked with some doubt.
“Senior Brother Guo, it wasn’t Master who sent you to find me?”Chen Fei also looked at Guo Linshan in confusion.
“No, Master hasn’t been in the sect for the past two days. I’m happy that I’ve broken through to the Visceral Tempering realm, so I came to look for you, Junior Brother.”
Guo Linshan scratched his head. He had heard of Chen Fei’s residence in the Immortal Cloud City before, but he had forgotten about it in the blink of an eye. He only remembered the approximate location. Today, he had walked around several times and shouted all the way before he finally found it.
Chen Fei didn’t know whether to laugh or cry as he looked at Guo Linshan. So he was here to share his joy. Fortunately, Guo Linshan had come. Otherwise, Shi Xueqin would have escaped again today.
Based on the enmity between the two sides today, if Shi Xueqin had been able to leave this place, the future would be an endless battle.
The key was that Chen Fei’s strength was far inferior to Shi Xueqin’s. With Si Yuanhai’s help, both sides suffered heavy losses. If Chen Fei were to face Shi Xueqin alone, he would not be so lucky.
After all, Shi Xueqin’s movement technique was much better than Chen Fei’s under normal circumstances. Chen Fei would not be able to escape even if he wanted to. He would probably have to stay in the Primordial Sword Sect forever unless he broke through to the Visceral Tempering realm one day.
“Senior brother, you saved my life today.”
Chen Fei sat on the ground and looked at Guo Linshan with a smile.
“There’s no need for thanks between us.”
Guo Linshan couldn’t help but laugh. From the day Chen Fei was willing to go together to lure the evil, the two of them had truly become friends through life and death. It was precisely because of this that Guo Linshan could not wait to share it with Chen Fei when he had just broken through to the Visceral Tempering realm.
In the end, he did not expect that he would actually help Chen Fei get rid of Shi Xueqin. It was really heaven’s will.
After tidying up the messy courtyard, Si Yuanhai’s family helped him back to rest. Chen Fei also returned to his own courtyard and woke up the unconscious Chi Defeng at the same time.
Guo Linshan watched over Shi Xueqin. Although Shi Xueqin’s cultivation had been crippled, he still did not dare to be careless. He was especially worried that Shi Xueqin would commit suicide, then he would suffer a loss.
Chen Fei took the medicine and spent the entire night circulating his cultivation technique to heal his injuries.
The Origin Connection Technique was worthy of being an inner sect cultivation technique of the Primordial Sword Sect. Not only was it helpful for cultivation, but it was also very effective for healing. Chen Fei’s body was originally on the verge of collapse. After a night of healing, his injuries actually stabilized directly.
According to this trend, Chen Fei would probably be able to recover completely in another two to three days without any side effects.
The night sky broke, and the sun rose. Just as Chen Fei and the others were considering whether to send Shi Xueqin back to the sect or wait for someone from the sect to come, a knock sounded on the door.
“Master!
Guo Linshan went up to open the door and shouted in surprise when he saw who it was.
When Guo Linshan came out yesterday, Feng Xiupu wasn’t in the sect. Moreover, he had gone out for a few days.
Feng Xiupu nodded and walked into the courtyard.
Chen Fei quickly stood up and bowed to Feng Xiupu.
Feng Xiupu nodded. He glanced at the chaotic scene in the courtyard and Chen Fei’s seriously injured appearance. He frowned slightly and said, “Looks like I’m a step too late.”
“Master, it’s not too late. We’ve caught that demoness.” Guo Linshan closed the door of the courtyard and said excitedly.
“Caught?”
Feng Xiupu was slightly surprised. The main reason was that with Chen Fei’s current appearance of having no combat power, his injuries must have been even more serious last night. In this situation, it was already fortunate that he was not killed.
From the information that Chon Fei had sent over, that person was in the Visceral Tempering realm. With Chen Fei’s Bone Tempering realm cultivation, no matter how heaven-defying he was, he would probably run when he saw someone.
“Fortunately, the neighbors next door helped.”
Chen Fei sighed and briefly explained the matter.
Feng Xiupu was somewhat surprised when he heard of the techniques Si Yuanhai displayed. It was obvious that this kind of person was really hard to see on normal days.
“Take me to see the people from the Divine Flame Sect,” Feng Xiupu said in a deep voice.
This morning, Feng Xiupu only saw Chen Fei’s letter after returning to the sect and immediately rushed over. Fortunately, it did not lead to irreparable consequences.
They arrived at a room. Shi Xueqin was tied up and thrown on the ground. At this moment, Shi Xueqin had already woken up. When she heard the sound, there was no other movement. She just stared blankly into the distance.
With her cultivation crippled and now tied up here, Shi Xueqin’s fate was already set. As such, she had no interest in anything in the outside world. In fact, she only wanted to die.
Unfortunately, Shi Xueqin was controlled by Guo Linshan’s force and couldn’t even die.
Guo Linshan’s chaotic operation had actually taken effect.
“Master, how should we deal with this demoness?”Chcn Fei turned to look at Feng Xiupu.
“I’ll take her directly to the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect.” Feng Xiupu muttered to himself for a moment before speaking in a deep voice.
The Divine Flame Sect was powerful. They had been able to contend with the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect for so many years without being wiped out. It was beyond imagination that they were difficult to deal with.
There was no need for the Primordial Sword Sect to take responsibility for this matter. Otherwise, if the Divine Flame Sect set its sights on the Primordial Sword Sect, the Primrodial Sword Sect would suffer heavy losses.
Now because many people from other places had gone to the Immortal Cloud City, the Primordial Sword Sect had also obtained the opportunity to develop. The Primordial Sword Sect naturally did not hope that, at this time, there would be such trouble knocking on their doors.
“Keep this a secret. Don’t tell anyone else, or you’ll only get yourself into trouble.” Feng Xiupu warned.
“Don’t worry, Master.”
Chen Fei nodded. If they encountered a behemoth like the Divine Flame Sect, they would naturally avoid it if they could.
“Be careful.”
Feng Xiupu nodded and grabbed Shi Xueqin, who was on the ground. His figure flashed, and he disappeared from the spot. Feng Xiupu wanted to throw this trouble to the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect, and at the same time, he wanted to get some benefits back.
The Immortal Cloud Sword Sect was never stingy.
Chen Fei’s strength was still too weak. He was at the Bone Tempering realm. If he encountered someone at the Visceral Tempering realm, he would definitely be in danger. Now that the world was in chaos, Feng Xiupu decided to get something good for Chen Fei from the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect.
After Feng Xiupu left, Chen Fei and the others talked for a while. At the same time, they also agreed with Si Yuanhai and decided to move out of their current residence.
There had been quite a commotion here last night. If someone investigated carefully, they might still find some clues.
Shi Xueqin had already been interrogated by Si Yinan’s illusion technique in the middle of the night. They found out that Shi Xueqin had come here on a whim and didn’t report it to the higher-ups.
This made everyone heave a sigh of relief. However, for safety reasons, it was better to leave this place and rent a new place.
He made Chi Defeng change his appearance and find a rentor to rent two courtyards.
Because it was closer to the center of the Immortal Cloud City, it cost a lot. Fortunately, Chen Fei still had some money left. At the same time, to thank Si Yuanhai for helping him last night, Chen Fei paid all the money.
“We should pay for the rent ourselves,” Si Yuanhai looked at Chen Fei and said.
“If it wasn’t for Senior last night, I’m afraid I would have been beheaded. This bit of money is nothing.”
As Chen Fei spoke, he took out the Thousand Snow Bamboo and handed it to Si
Yuanhai. “Senior, please take this back.”
“There’s no reason to take back a gift that has been given out. You should keep this well.” Si Yuanhai smiled and waved his hand.
The two of them pushed each other for a while, and in the end, Chen Fei accepted it. If he continued to be polite, it would be rude.
He had spent quite a bit of the silver he had saved up, but Chen Fei had already decided that he would return to the sect in a few days to exchange for the pill formula of the Flying Ascent Pill.
Previously, Chen Fei actually had his own ideas and relied on his own efforts to restore the pill formula of the Flying Ascent Pill.
The man’s damn desire for victory and sense of accomplishment made Chen Fei quite persistent about this matter.
However, there were obviously many places where he needed money. Chen Fei decided to be more sincere and exchange for the pill formula of the Flying Ascent Pill before starting to sell it.
However, the amount of Flying Ascent Pills sold was definitely incomparable to the Eternal Floating Pills.
It was not because there were few people buying it, nor was it because the price was high. It was because Chen Fei might not be able to collect enough medicinal herbs in the future as he did now.
There were many ways to obtain the medicinal herbs for the Eternal Floating Pill because they were all herbs of ordinary age. However, the Flying Ascent Pill had a minimum requirement for the age of the medicinal ingredients.
For example, the Meridian Protecting Pill required twenty years of main ingredients. As for the Flying Ascent Pill, the lowest requirement was for the main ingredient to be ten years old. The other supplementary ingredients also had age restrictions, but unlike the main ingredient, which required ten years.
It was precisely because of the age restriction of the medicinal ingredients that the price of the Flying Ascent Pill was so expensive.
After that, he would have to test Chi Defeng’s ability to purchase medicinal ingredients or find a way from the Alchemist Alliance.
However, no matter what, to Chen Fei, there were only advantages and no disadvantages to exchanging for the pill formula of the Flying Ascent Pill. At most, it would not be as satisfying as deducing it himself.
After recuperating in the Immortal Cloud City for five days, everything was peaceful.
Chen Fei’s injuries had already healed. At the same time, he had not stopped cultivating the third level of the Origin Connection Technique. However, due to the burden of his injuries, he still lacked some proficiency.
Chen Fei had originally wanted to cultivate the third stage of the Origin Connection Art to perfection before returning to the sect. However, Feng Xiupu had sent a message that he had already settled Shi Xueqin’s matter and had summoned Chen Fei and the other two back.
The two of them did not delay. After rushing back to the mountain gate, they arrived directly in front of Fengu Xiupu’s courtyard.
“Master, disciple requests an audience!” Guo Linshan stepped forward and shouted.
“Come in.” Feng Xiupu’s voice rang out.
Chen Fei and the others entered the courtyard and found Feng Xiupu sitting in front of a stone table, fiddling with a yellow bead.
“Take it!
Feng Xiupu looked at Chen Fei and gently sent the pearl to Chen Fei. Chen Fei subconsciously caught it and looked at Feng Xiupu in confusion.
“Receival Bead!
Feng Xiupu picked up the teacup on the stone table and took a sip before smiling. “You’re quite lucky this time to have obtained this item from the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect. It should be of great help to your cultivation.”
“This is good stuff, Junior Brother!” Guo Linshan was pleasantly surprised.
Chen Fei couldn’t help but look at the bead in his hand. Its appearance was ordinary, like a clay bead that a naughty child had pinched out..
