Chapter 415: Coincidence

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After Li Yuanqing left the Golden Bamboo Mountain, he headed west. After walking for a few hundred miles, a very steep mountain peak appeared in front of him.

This mountain peak was like a sharp sword that pointed towards the sky.

Li Yuanqing circled the mountain peak and finally found a hidden place. He opened a small cave abode and hid in it.

After Li Yuanqing entered, the shape of the hole gradually blurred. In the end, it fused with the surrounding environment and was completely invisible.

Li Yuanqing kept feeling that he had been targeted when he came out just now. This feeling made him feel very uncomfortable. Fortunately, no one was following him. However, he definitely could not go back directly. He would hide here for a while and return to the sect after the situation outside calmed down. It would be more appropriate.

Li Yuanqing sat down cross-legged and a gray ball appeared in his hand.

This thing was wrapped in a light yellow spiritual energy barrier. It looked like the roots of some plant, and there were many threads wrapped around it. This was the mycelium of the Silver Ring Ointment. Li Yuanqing had bought it at the auction just now.

This thing was useful, but no one was interested, so Li Yuanqing took it.

The Silver Ring Ointment was poisonous, so most of them wouldn’t use it as medicine. Instead, some hidden weapons were more useful.

After the Silver Ring Ointment matured, the venom refined would be extremely poisonous. Even that small drop could easily poison a Formation Arrangement Realm expert to death. If it was combined with a specific pill formula and refined into a more poisonous medicine, even a Supremacy would probably not be able to escape.

However, poison had its limitations after all.

Experts above the Supremacy realm had very agile reactions and senses. A very poisonous poison like this naturally had nowhere to hide in front of them.

The reason why Li Yuanqing bought this thing back was not because he wanted to turn it into poison to fight the enemy. It was mainly because Li Yuanqing was still thinking about what Wang Lan had said last time.

He did not know much about mushrooms. Since these little things could have a huge impact on Little Man and the others, Li Yuanqing still wanted to understand more.

It just so happened that there was such an opportunity, and no one was willing to spend money to fight for this small mycelium.

According to them, this thing should be able to survive after being planted. Their vitality was very strong. Of course, the effect would be better if they were planted together with specific trees.

Mushrooms still had to coexist with trees.

Li Yuanqing was still thinking about where to bring this species when he returned when a very powerful energy fluctuation suddenly came from afar. He quickly squeezed out of the altar and completely sealed his aura.

More than ten miles away from the mountain peak.

A figure covered in a black robe stood in midair. Behind him were two middle-aged men. Opposite them, three men were blocking the way.

The person blocking the way was none other than Young Master Fang Zhou, who had a conflict with Wang Susu.

“A good dog doesn’t block the way!”

The black-robed man who bumped into them said. This voice belonged to Wang Susu.

When Fang Zhou heard her words, he immediately smiled from ear to ear.

“Wang Susu, what’s our relationship? I’m in the mood for you to chat with me today. Why is our Miss Wang’s temper still so bad?”

“Why do you care!”

Wang Susu’s hand hidden under the cloak suddenly attacked. It was a purple sword. It slashed out a faint purple sword light that stabbed towards Fang Zhou’s face.

Wang Susu’s huge aura blew the cloak behind her, revealing her graceful figure.

The expression of Fang Zhou, who was originally smiling mischievously, also turned cold. It was as if he had become a different person. A pure white jade treasure saber suddenly appeared in his hand.

As soon as the white jade saber appeared, it surrounded Fang Zhou with an aura.

Fang Zhou circled the sword around his body and completely gathered the scattered air beside him. It formed a thin shield in front of him.

“Go!”

He took the opportunity to slash the saber in front of him, and a dazzling saber light rushed back in Wang Susu’s direction.

The saber light and the sword energy collided violently in the middle. A majestic aura scattered in all directions. The surrounding smaller mountains were shaken by this aura and a layer of skin fell off. A large pile of rocks slid down the hill.

Li Yuanqing’s mountain trembled slightly from the aftershock.

Fang Zhou held the white jade treasure saber and looked at Wang Susu proudly.

“Miss Wang, you know that you’re my woman. Why must you be so rough with your husband? Could it be that you know that your husband isn’t such a petty person and won’t argue with you?”

Fang Zhou temporarily had the upper hand in the first wave of the collision. He looked at Wang Susu with a smug expression. He sized Wang Susu up fearlessly. The more he looked, the more smug he became. His hand rubbed the back of the saber silently, as if he was touching Wang Susu’s skin.

Wang Susu looked at his flippant expression and immediately blushed in embarrassment. She raised her sword and was about to attack.

At this moment, the middle-aged man on Wang Susu’s right took a step forward and stood in front of her.

The man looked at the three people standing opposite him with a dark expression. He cupped his hands slightly and said very politely, “Elder Fang, Miss is still in a hurry to rush back to the sect. Please do her a favor and stop pestering her.”

A white-haired old man stood up and smiled at the person in front of him.

“Master Wang’s cultivation has improved again. Congratulations!”

The man did not fall for it and looked at him.

“Elder Fang, I’m afraid you didn’t stop us here just to say these congratulatory words, right?”

The old man looked a little bored. He restrained the smile on his face and said to them, “Our young master is very interested in this Fire Spirit Pill. Isn’t your sect too arrogant? Why aren’t you showing any mercy?”

“Elder Fang, if you’re here because of this, I’ll apologize for our rashness just now.”

When Wang Susu heard this, she immediately leaned over angrily. “Why should we apologize? It’s clearly his mouth that stinks. He can’t even say a good word!”

“Miss!”

Wang Qiushan was a famous alchemist in the Cloud Sky Sect and Wang Susu’s master.

Seeing that her master seemed to be angry, Wang Susu did not dare to retort. She only looked at her master aggrievedly.

“Today, we actually obtained the Fire Spirit Pill and made Young Master Fang return empty-handed. It’s human nature for Young Master Fang to be unhappy.”

As Wang Qiushan spoke, he turned to Fang Zhou and the others and said, “Our Miss usually has a bad temper. It’s my fault for not teaching her. I’ll apologize on behalf of her. Please forgive me!”

“Unhappy?”

Fang Zhou looked at Wang Qiushan coldly before turning to Wang Susu.

“Master Wang, everyone says that you’re skilled and gentle. You have the manner of a young master. However, I don’t think you’ve taught your disciple your style well.”

“You!”

Wang Susu gritted her teeth and looked at Fang Zhou. However, with her master blocking the way, she did not dare to say anything else.

Fang Zhou already had the upper hand. Now, he was smiling proudly.

“Why? Is our Miss Wang unhappy?” Fang Zhou grinned and laughed. He even arrogantly approached her. “Miss Wang, if you’re unhappy, feel free to say it.”

“Alright!” Wang Qiushan frowned and glared at them as he warned, “Our Miss had already apologized. If there’s nothing else, can you move aside and let us go back quickly? The Sect Master is still waiting for Miss.”

“Is that an apology?” Fang Zhou said relentlessly. “Why don’t I see that Miss Wang had that intention?”

“Young Master!”

Just as Fang Zhou was shouting proudly, the old man behind him walked up and blocked all the words Fang Zhou wanted to say.

Fang Zhou looked at the old man in confusion. He clearly had the upper hand now. He did not know why he was stopped.

The old man did not say anything else. He looked at Wang Qiushan directly and said, “Master Wang, our Fang North Mountain has always been very respectful of an alchemist like you. You’re quite famous. However, what happened today is not our grudge. It’s just that this Fire Spirit Pill is a little rare. You can’t be so rude and unreasonable and take it all for yourself.”

Wang Qiushan seemed to have expected them to say this. He cupped his hands slightly and replied, “Elder Fang is also interested in this Fire Spirit Pill. However, I have a use for this Fire Spirit Pill when I take it back. It’s really not convenient for me to share it.”

“Master Wang, you’re so arrogant. What can you do to use two hundred Fire Spirit Pills at once?”

Fang Zhou was furious by Wang Qiushan’s words.

Elder Fang did not stop him this time. Instead, he said, “We don’t want much. You just need to give up one bottle. I don’t think you’ll be able to use so much after buying so many. Why must you take all these treasures for yourself?”

“Elder Fang, please forgive me. It’s fine if I can give up other things, but we indeed have other uses for this Fire Spirit Pill. Please don’t make things difficult for us.”

At this point, both sides’ expressions turned ugly.

Elder Fang looked at Wang Qiushan gloomily and said coldly, “Master Wang, you mean that there’s no room for negotiation.”

Fang Zhou gritted his teeth and looked at the few people opposite him. He shouted at the top of its lungs, “Sixth Master, this person clearly doesn’t care about our Fang North Mountain. That’s why they’re so arrogant today! If we don’t teach them a lesson today, I’m afraid their Cloud Sky Sect will be too arrogant in the future!”

Wang Qiushan did not say anything, but his eyes never left the other party. The hand that landed behind him also silently took out a golden whip.

Wang Susu looked at her master and naturally protected her sword in front of her, ready to attack at any time.

“Master Wang, you just need to give up one bottle. How could our sect’s old relationship end up like this? I advise you to think twice!”

“Elder Fang, there’s no need to say anything. We won’t give up this Fire Spirit Pill no matter what!”

“I want to see where you get your arrogance from!”

As the old man spoke, he turned into a gust of wind and disappeared. In the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Wang Qiushan.

The violent wind hit Wang Qiushan.

Wang Qiushan swung his hand, and the golden whip in his hand turned into a long rainbow that forcefully split open a gap in the violent wind with a bolt of lightning.

In the violent wind, the old man appeared. At this moment, the hair on his body danced with the wind. Coupled with his fluttering robe, he looked like he had fused with the wind.

The wind kept spinning and turned into a huge tornado with a diameter of more than ten miles, surrounding the Wang family.

Among them, countless vengeful spirits wailed and let out miserable and ear-piercing roars. From time to time, they would jump out of the vortex and stare at the three people inside.

A golden barrier of light appeared around the three members of the Wang clan. This golden barrier shone on them and swayed with the wind. In this huge tornado, they looked as small as a golden light spot.

“Wang Qiushan! We, the Fang North Mountain, have always been tolerant of your Cloud Sky Sect. I didn’t expect that our tolerance would be in exchange for your contempt. Is this how your Cloud Sky Sect does things?”

Seeing that the matter had already come to this, Wang Qiushan no longer hid anything. He pulled his Daoist robe away and turned into a cloud that circled the sky before landing at their feet.

“Fang Qianyuan, you’re good! I’ve repeatedly tolerated you on account that you’re my senior, but I didn’t expect you to provoke me everywhere and insist on being so hostile! If I don’t show some ability today, you’ll really bully my Cloud Sky Sect!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the clouds under his feet suddenly flew forward and entered the vortex in front of him.

As soon as he rushed in, the golden whip in his hand turned into a dazzling golden light that charged left and right in the vortex with lightning.

In the violent wind, the armored malicious ghosts were struck by the golden lightning. All of them let out tragic wails and kept hiding. However, this hiding was useless.

The golden lightning seemed to have eyes as it kept chasing forward. When it caught up to the malicious ghost, it smashed down fiercely!

Once those malicious ghosts touched this lightning, they would immediately be shattered into pieces.

For a moment, Wang Qiushan rushed left and right in the huge tornado with an arrogant aura.

In reality, Li Yuanqing had secretly sneaked out of the cave abode.

This fellow’s violent wind was too powerful, causing the entire mountain to tremble. It might even blow up his mountain.
