Chapter 35: Kill the Second RankIt was snowing heavily outside. The pharmacy was deserted. Su Chen made a simple coffin and placed Chen Ge's old body, along with the pottery jar and three hundred taels of silver, in it. He would keep vigil for three days and then bury the body. "Master Xu, I'm so sorry!" "We have received a lot of care from you and Old Chen over the years. This is our gift. If we bribe Manager Li, we can always send Old Chen to be buried outside the city..." Several young eunuchs carried a small package and placed it in front of Su Chen. They said a few words of comfort, helped with some matters, and were about to leave. The package is heavy. Obviously, there were copper coins and loose silver inside, which were saved by the palace maids and eunuchs who endured exploitation and lived frugally. In the palace, if you don’t have money to pay tribute to your parents, you’d be living a life worse than death. "I don't want the silver."
"I just want to know what happened when I went to the library a few nights before Mr. Chen died?" The strangeness of Mr. Chen’s illness. His original lifespan of ten years was simply wasted. He fell ill overnight and then died. The smell of decayed body. In an instant, he became exhausted and old. All of this is too much like the Zhang Gui of the past. "This……" Several young eunuchs looked at each other, obviously knowing something. In this regard. Su Chen slowly closed the coffin lid, his eyes calm, and poured a cup of hot tea for each of the young eunuchs in front of him. "Xiao Ningzi, three years ago, you were beaten to pieces because you broke the nobleman's wine glass. If Elder Chen hadn't applied medicine to you and taken good care of you, you would have died that night." "And you, Little Li, you stole a jar of medicinal wine from Old Chen. This is the aphrodisiac wine that the Imperial Guard wanted. If Old Chen hadn't covered it up for you, you would have been beaten to death by the Imperial Guard." Su Chen told the story slowly, and the two young eunuchs lowered their heads in shame. Subsequently. Su Chen looked at the last little eunuch who looked up, his eyes deep, and continued speaking. "Ji Yun, you really don't owe Mr. Chen anything." "But you owe me." "I saved your life, and you still owe me money!" The three young eunuchs were filled with shame, but they still gritted their teeth and tried to persuade him.
"Master Xu." "We are just little eunuchs. We can't beat the one in charge." "not to mention." "There are people above the steward." "As a black eunuch, even if everyone calls you Master Xu, you can't really treat yourself as a master in this palace. You don't want to die, but we brothers still want to die..." "Don't ask any more questions. Elder Chen died of a cold..." After saying that, Ji Yun finished the tea on the table, led the other two eunuchs, and was about to say goodbye and leave. "three two……" next moment. The three young eunuchs fell to the ground, looking dazed. Su Chen added some ingredients to the tea. soon. The whole story was told in detail. In fact. There have been quite a few old eunuchs like Old Chen who died suddenly in the palace recently, and everyone thought that it was just the snow that froze more old eunuchs to death. However, Ji Yun knew one thing. Before these old eunuchs who died suddenly, they had all been summoned by one person, the blue-robed steward who was in charge of the eunuch roster, Eunuch Li Xi. "Ugh!" Su Chen sighed softly. Mushu-like tentacles surged over the body. In a blink of an eye. He turned back into the unknown third-rank official who had disturbed the Holy Emperor a few nights ago. "Black eunuch?" "I am, but I'm not." "Old Chen has a hard mouth but a soft heart. He has taken care of me in this pharmacy for three years, asking me to grow medicine and pharmacology. I have saved up three hundred taels of silver. I originally wanted to give it to Old Chen for his retirement when I left the palace to repay this master-disciple relationship..." "But why can't I get what I want..." "I have to witness the death of someone I know..." At this moment, Su Chen stepped out of the pharmacy.
Huhu—— The cold wind kept blowing. Su Chen looked at the cold sun above his head that was obscured by the wind and snow, and rubbed his palms. Someone is going to die today! perhaps. Only one died. Perhaps many people will die. …… …… The Imperial Palace Documents Library. The lights flickered. There was an old eunuch in a blue robe, sitting cross-legged on a cushion, constantly breathing in and out black and white air. In an instant, his energy surged. Originally, the energy of the fourth-grade violent state was at the late stage, but in an instant, it broke through to the peak of the violent state. "effective!" “This effect is too strong!” "Eunuch Mu, this mysterious fragment combined with this deadly secret technique is really effective. In just three days, I have climbed from the early stage of the fourth rank to the perfect fourth rank..." "As long as we can devour a few more people, even if they are third-grade Condensed Gang, there will be a glimmer of hope..." Li Xi was so ecstatic that he couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice. To know. From the early stage of the fourth level to the perfection of the fourth level, even for a martial arts genius, it takes at least three months. And he. It only took three days. And the price required is just some old eunuchs. "Thank you, Eunuch Mu, for giving me this technique." "I will serve you wholeheartedly!" Li Xi said loyally. puff! next moment. His eyes widened, looking at the hand in front of his chest in disbelief. In front of him, the chief steward Mu Xuan, dressed in a red robe and with white hair, was covering his mouth and nose with a brocade handkerchief, with a look of disgust on his face. "I'm just experimenting with you."
"Do you know what this is? The Heaven Devouring Demonic Art obtained by Zhang Gui, the world's number one purple robe, from the Demon Mountain Range. Even though it's only a fragment, it's not something a rubbish like you can dare to get your hands on..." Li Xi is dead. "This secret technique of borrowing lives is useful..." "It seems that what he said is true. The deal with him can continue." Mu Xuan took the remaining scroll of the secret technique from Li Xi, smiled coldly, and was about to leave. At this time. Gusts of cold wind rushed in from the window. I don’t know when. The window is open. "who?" Mu Xuan looked to the side with gloomy eyes and suddenly saw a black figure appearing in front of the dead Li Xi. His eyes were like ice, his spine was like a sword, and he had his hands behind his back, looking quite crazy. "It's you?!" "A mere third-grade white marrow dares to appear in front of me. He simply doesn't know how to live or die!" "when did you come?" Mu Xuan's face suddenly became ferocious. A mere third-rank white marrow, a dog-like thing, actually embarrassed him in front of the little emperor and made him laughed at by the red-robed man for a long time. not to mention. His secret was discovered. Today, he must kill this guy! "I wanted to kill Li Xi, but you killed him in advance." "so……" "How should you compensate me?" Su Chen turned around and looked at the first red-robed man in the palace. "I will compensate you?" "We'll send you to hell!" Mu Xuan's robe fluttered as a strong rage surged at this moment, transforming into a blue dragon's palm, which came over fiercely to kill him. He doesn't believe it anymore.
Even if this kid is weird, he is only a third-grade White Marrow Realm expert after all. Can he really beat a second-grade Angry Gang Realm expert like him? "Why seek death?" Su Chen sneered. "bluff!" "If you could really beat a second-grade wrathful force, why did you run away then?" A sneer appeared in Mu Xuan's eyes. run? Su Chen shook his head and remained motionless in the face of the angry Canglong's palm. He looked at the wind and snow outside the house, closed his eyes, and recalled the sword of the purple-robed man in the wind and snow. "Dare you still close your eyes?" "How brave!" boom! The angry blue dragon surges towards him. however. next moment. Outside the house, snow and wind were surging wildly. Ten feet of snow and wind gathered together in an instant, shattering the document library and rushing down towards the chief eunuch. “This move…” "what!" "You are the red robe...Su..." Mu Xuan's eyes were filled with horror, and he instantly remembered Su Chen's identity. It was too late for him to beg for mercy. The headless corpse fell to the ground. Soaked in the snow and wind all over the ground. "Why did you run away then?" "Because killing you would expose my identity, it's totally not worth it." "idiot!" (End of this chapter)
