Chapter 217: The Calamity of Medicine Fragrance Valley
Yan Chengjian clenched his fists tightly, his voice filled with hatred as he spoke, "At that time, I was almost driven mad. I knew that my Yan Clan Immortal Manor couldn't escape responsibility for this matter. So, I was determined to catch the culprit and personally bring them to the Taiyi Sect. Fortunately, I finally got some clues and found out that it was the Medicine Fragrance Valley behind it. I immediately captured Chang Qingshuang and Qi Hanfu from the valley. After capturing them, I realized that the Reincarnation Begonia wasn't on them..."
Xing Chenxiang coldly said, "Bring Chang Qingshuang and Qi Hanfu here immediately."
"Yes," Yan Chengjian quickly took out a flying sword and sent a message back, instructing the manager of Qiefeng Immortal Pool to deliver Chang Qingshuang and Qi Hanfu to the City Lord's Mansion of Pill Capital Immortal City.
Seeing that Yan Chengjian had sent the flying sword, Wu Fuyu smiled and asked, "So, did you manage to find out from Chang Qingshuang and Qi Hanfu who has the Reincarnation Begonia?"
He was certain that Yan Chengjian's earlier words were filled with half-truths and lies.
But that didn't matter, as long as the Reincarnation Begonia was real.
If there were two Reincarnation Begonias, Xing Chenxiang would get one, and he should be able to get the other.
Yan Chengjian quickly replied, "Those two were extremely tight-lipped. Apart from finding out that the person who left was named Lan Xiaobu, I couldn't get anything else out of them. I even hung them up and burned their souls, but I still couldn't find out who had the Reincarnation Begonia. My cultivation is limited, so I couldn't perform a soul search on them. I suspect it must be with Lan Xiaobu."
"If you can't perform a soul search, I'll do it," Xing Chenxiang said indifferently.
Yan Chengjian quickly responded, "Yes, Young Master Xing, with your skills, it will surely be a piece of cake."
Though he said this, he secretly sneered.
Xing Chenxiang's cultivation was about the same as his, both at the late Golden Immortal stage.
If he couldn't perform a soul search, how could Xing Chenxiang? Wu Fuyu would be more capable of doing it.
Just as Yan Chengjian thought this, a flying sword landed in his hand.
After scanning it with his divine sense, his expression instantly changed.
"Manor Lord Yan, has something else gone wrong?" Wu Fuyu's tone was laced with sarcasm.
Yan Chengjian bowed to Xing Chenxiang and Wu Fuyu, then said with fear, "Earlier, I came to the City Lord's Mansion of Pill Capital Immortal City to attend the Immortal Fruit Conference because Jiang Fei, an official from the City Lord's Mansion, came to Qiefeng Immortal Pool to invite me. I was afraid of delaying, so I hurried over."
"Nonsense!" Wu Fuyu angrily rebuked.
Yan Chengjian sighed, "Now I know I was deceived. The Jiang Fei who came to Qiefeng Immortal Pool must have been someone in disguise. He impersonated an official from the City Lord's Mansion to lure me away, then impersonated me to return to Qiefeng Immortal Pool and took away Chang Qingshuang and Qi Hanfu."
Hearing this, Wu Fuyu fell silent.
He knew that a fragment of the Earth Fiend Transformation had appeared at the auction in Pill Capital Immortal City a few days ago.
But how could someone master the art of transformation in such a short time?
No matter who it was, impersonating the name of Pill Capital Immortal City was a death sentence.
Xing Chenxiang also remained silent, frowning as he pondered something.
Whether it was the Heaven Fiend Transformation or the Earth Fiend Transformation, ordinary people couldn't possibly master them.
Even if you obtained them, they would eventually be reclaimed by some hidden powerhouse.
These two divine abilities were reserved for the strong and those in high positions.
Wu Fuyu also didn't speak.
If the Earth Fiend Transformation were so easy to learn, he would have already acquired it at the auction.
The person who consigned the fragment of the Earth Fiend Transformation had an extraordinary background; otherwise, they wouldn't have been qualified to consign such a divine ability.
Disciples of the Sage's lineage believed that the Heaven Fiend Transformation and Earth Fiend Transformation were their exclusive divine abilities, not to be taught to anyone outside the Sage's direct disciples.
Now that someone had learned the Earth Fiend Transformation, what did that mean?
"Manor Lord Yan, lead the way immediately. We're going to Medicine Fragrance Valley. The disciples of the Taiyi Sect are not so easily killed. If someone dares to kill our disciples, they will pay with the lives of their entire sect," Xing Chenxiang said coldly.
Yan Chengjian was overjoyed.
This was exactly the effect he wanted.
Whether his Reincarnation Begonia was in Medicine Fragrance Valley or not didn't matter.
What mattered was that Medicine Fragrance Valley already had one Reincarnation Begonia.
Others didn't know this, but it couldn't escape Yan Chengjian's notice.
If his Reincarnation Begonia was also in Medicine Fragrance Valley, that would be even better.
If not, it didn't matter.
As long as they found one Reincarnation Begonia, it would be a success.
That one would surely go to Xing Chenxiang.
As for Wu Fuyu, well, once he had curried favor with Xing Chenxiang, what could Wu Fuyu do to his Yan Clan Immortal Manor?
"Yes," Yan Chengjian quickly agreed.
...
Lan Xiaobu controlled the Extreme Sea Cloud Boat, speeding away from Pill Capital Immortal City as fast as possible.
Participating in the Nine Provinces Alchemy Competition was out of the question now; survival was the priority.
With the help of Five Spirit Liquid and healing pills, Chang Qingshuang and Qi Hanfu regained consciousness after three days.
"Lan Xiaobu? So you were captured too," Qi Hanfu said as soon as she saw Lan Xiaobu, assuming he had also been captured by the Yan Clan.
Lan Xiaobu replied, "No, I secretly went to Qiefeng Immortal Pool and rescued both of you."
Chang Qingshuang looked at Lan Xiaobu with suspicion.
Could Lan Xiaobu really have sneaked into Qiefeng Immortal Pool and rescued them? That seemed unlikely.
"How did you rescue us?" Chang Qingshuang asked.
Lan Xiaobu waved his hand, "That's not important right now. What's important is what you plan to do next. I can't accompany you to the Nine Provinces Alchemy Competition. I have somewhere else to go."
"Please take us back to our sect. I need to report this to my master and the sect leader immediately. I don't even have my communication bead now," Chang Qingshuang said.
"Alright," Lan Xiaobu agreed without hesitation.
The Extreme Sea Cloud Boat sped up to its maximum speed, and in less than half a month, they were nearing Medicine Fragrance Valley.
Qi Hanfu suddenly said, "Sister Qingshuang, I have a bad feeling, like something terrible has happened..."
Chang Qingshuang's eyes were filled with fear; she also had a terrible premonition.
At that moment, the Extreme Sea Cloud Boat came to a halt.
Before Lan Xiaobu and the two women lay a scene of devastation—crumbling walls and scattered corpses.
Some of the dead still had their eyes wide open, as if they couldn't believe what had happened.
Lan Xiaobu felt a chill run down his spine.
Did the Yan Clan have such power?
His divine sense swept through the area, and he found that not a single spiritual herb remained in Medicine Fragrance Valley.
Several herb peaks had been reduced to rubble.
As Lan Xiaobu continued to search with his divine sense, Chang Qingshuang and Qi Hanfu trembled, their lips quivering.
They couldn't speak a word, but they knew in their hearts that Medicine Fragrance Valley was gone, their sect was gone, and their fellow disciples were gone.
When Lan Xiaobu's divine sense landed on a man in hemp clothes lying in a corner, he immediately sensed a faint pulse of life.
He quickly rushed over and poured some Five Spirit Liquid into the man's mouth.
"Senior Brother Qianhen..."
Chang Qingshuang rushed over, finally breaking down in tears.
After half an incense stick's time, the man woke up.
He looked around in confusion, his gaze eventually landing on Qi Hanfu and Chang Qingshuang.
With a heartbroken expression, he said, "Junior Sister Qingshuang, Junior Sister Hanfu, Medicine Fragrance Valley is gone. The sect leader is gone, and our fellow disciples have either fled or died..."
"It's all my fault. I've brought disaster to our sect. I've destroyed Medicine Fragrance Valley..."
Chang Qingshuang wept uncontrollably.
Unable to bear the guilt and torment any longer, she grabbed a broken sword nearby and tried to slit her own throat.
Senior Brother Qianhen's eyes filled with urgency, but he was powerless to stop her.
Lan Xiaobu quickly blocked the broken sword with his hand and sighed, "This matter was likely caused by me. It has nothing to do with you. Sigh..."
He knew he had to give Medicine Fragrance Valley an explanation for this.
Lan Xiaobu had never owed such a huge debt before.
To save him, the entire Medicine Fragrance Valley had been sacrificed.
"No, it's not..."
Senior Brother Qianhen struggled to say a few more words.
Lan Xiaobu poured more Five Spirit Liquid into Senior Brother Qianhen's mouth.
The first time, Senior Brother Qianhen had been unconscious and didn't notice, but this time he immediately recognized it as Five Spirit Liquid.
He looked at Lan Xiaobu in astonishment.
He didn't know Lan Xiaobu's background, but he knew the value of Five Spirit Liquid.
Since Yuan Continent had been separated, Five Spirit Liquid and Five-Colored Immortal Mushrooms had become legendary items.
He quickly circulated his energy to absorb the Five Spirit Liquid, and his injuries began to heal rapidly.
After resting for a while, Senior Brother Qianhen performed a respectful bow to Lan Xiaobu and said, "Thank you, friend, for saving my life. My name is Fu Qianhen, and I was the senior disciple of Medicine Fragrance Valley."
Lan Xiaobu felt ashamed and said, "Senior Brother Qianhen, this matter is actually my fault. It was likely because Junior Sister Qingshuang and Junior Sister Hanfu tried to save me that they offended someone."
Fu Qianhen shook his head, "No, it was Ling Yuansha from the Kunlun Sect. Somehow, he found out that our Medicine Fragrance Valley had a Reincarnation Begonia. He came to our valley and demanded that the sect leader hand it over. The Reincarnation Begonia is our sect's treasure, and it has great future uses, so naturally, we couldn't give it to him."
Fu Qianhen clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
"At that time, the sect leader's disciple, Tan Jue, said, 'Why should we give you something that belongs to our sect?' Ling Yuansha immediately killed Tan Jue."The sect leader and our master were furious but didn't dare to act.
At that moment, Yan Chengjian from the Yan Clan Immortal Manor, Wu Fuyu from Pill Capital Immortal City, and Xing Chenxiang from the Taiyi Sect arrived at Medicine Fragrance Valley.
They also demanded that we hand over the Reincarnation Begonia, even asking for two of them."Lan Xiaobu was shocked. He hadn't expected the Kunlun Sect to be involved in this. Fu Qianhen paused, taking a moment to calm his emotions."The sect leader and our master naturally refused.
But then, they suddenly launched a sneak attack on the sect leader and our master...
What happened next, you can see for yourselves.
If I didn't have a dual soul, I would have been killed too."Fu Qianhen couldn't hold back his tears. He knew that against these behemoths, his sect had been annihilated, and he couldn't even seek revenge."This devastation is evidence.
In the future, I, Lan Xiaobu, will avenge Medicine Fragrance Valley,"Lan Xiaobu said as he took out a crystal ball to record the scene of destruction. Hearing Lan Xiaobu's words, Fu Qianhen was momentarily stunned, then said,"Medicine Fragrance Valley had a surveillance array to prevent spirit beasts from stealing our spiritual herbs.
That array can record everything..."
