Chapter 93 At the Medicine Emperor's Banquet, the Humble Qin Zhonghai!
Chapter 93 At the Medicine Emperor's Banquet, the Humble Qin Zhonghai!
After the initial shock, Lu Ming shook his head slightly at Feng Qingzhu. Feng Qingzhu understood, turned back, and stopped looking at Guo Yuan.
Lu Ming also remained expressionless, turning his head away, but his hand silently tightened its grip on the hilt of the knife.
Swish!
The world suddenly became bright, and in a special 360-degree field of vision with no blind spots, Lu Ming stared intently at Guo Yuan.
He saw Guo Yuan's gaze sweep over Feng Qingzhu, but Guo Yuan's emotions were only one of amazement, admiration, and at most a hint of greed.
However, there was no hatred or murderous intent!
This Guo Yuan is fake!
Lu Ming breathed a sigh of relief. For a moment just now, he really thought he had seen a ghost in broad daylight.
Thinking about it calmly, Guo Yuan was smashed into a pulp by his finger-flicking magic. No matter how many resurrection treasures there are, they can't bring him back to life!
Lu Ming's expression was solemn as he watched Guo Yuan walk past his row and head towards the seats of core disciples of top-tier sects further ahead.
Lu Ming's eyes flashed with a dark light as he used the Heavenly Leakage Divine Power to carefully examine Guo Yuan's aura.
Sure enough, this "Guo Yuan" had a different aura than the real Guo Yuan!
However, there was a sense of déjà vu in this, a feeling of near-perfect control over one's aura that was exactly the same as that of Zhou Zhen and Chen Ping.
He immediately realized that this Guo Yuan was actually a disciple of the Blood Demon Sect in disguise.
Lu Ming was secretly shocked. How long had Guo Yuan been dead? How could the Blood Demon Sect find a disciple at the Bone Forging Realm so quickly to impersonate Guo Yuan and attend the birthday banquet?
Guo Yuan's identity is definitely a crucial part of the Blood Demon Cult's plan; otherwise, they would never have reacted so quickly, nor would they have taken the risk of impersonating the dead Guo Yuan.
Thinking of this, Lu Ming secretly rejoiced that Feng Qingzhu must have seized a very brief opportunity to kill Guo Yuan.
If members of the Blood Demon Cult had been nearby at the time, both of them would probably have been in danger.
Of course, when Lu Ming approached that area, he had already used the Heavenly Leakage Divine Power to observe the surroundings and knew that there were no powerful figures nearby.
But looking back, they were undeniably lucky at the time.
At this moment, Lu Ming realized Guo Yuan's identity, but he didn't reveal it at all. He sat in his seat, looked away, and acted as if nothing had happened.
The power and far-reaching schemes of the Blood Demon Cult can be seen from this fake Guo Yuan incident.
He would never risk his life to expose Guo Yuan's identity.
The previous Guo Yuan was his enemy and is now dead; the current Guo Yuan has nothing to do with him.
He can't afford to offend the Blood Demon Cult for the time being.
He felt a sense of urgency, a vague feeling that chaos was truly imminent! It would likely erupt before the entrance examination for the Wuxiang Dao Sect next year!
From today onwards, he will devote himself to cultivation for a period of time, and try his best to improve his cultivation to the Great Perfection of Tendon Refining, or even the Bone Forging Realm!
By then, his supernatural powers will be greatly enhanced, enabling him to cope with the upcoming crisis.
While he was deep in thought, most of the guests at the Xie residence had arrived, and the birthday celebrant of the day, the Medicine King Xie Yun, finally made his leisurely entrance.
Xie Yun was not dressed up for the occasion. He seemed to be wearing his usual clothes when he was refining medicine. His white robes were stained gray and black by the medicinal herbs, his hair was disheveled, and he smelled of medicine, as if he had just come out of the alchemy room.
Seeing this, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Is this Xie Yun, the Medicine King?"
"Judging from its momentum, it should be."
"I had heard that he had a strange temper before, but I never expected him to be so unkempt. Even with such a big occasion today, he acted like it was just an ordinary day."
Xie Yun held a high position, yet his appearance remained unchanged. The crowd felt strange, but dared not speak out, exchanging knowing glances.
Immediately, Guo Yuan and other core disciples from top-tier sects took the lead in rising to offer their congratulations, followed by a host of geniuses who also stood up and said, "May the Medicine Emperor enjoy boundless happiness and longevity."
"Wishing the Medicine King a long and healthy life, may he never grow old."
"May the Medicine King be blessed—"
Before everyone could finish speaking, Xie Yun frowned and waved his hand.
The oppressive aura of the Marrow Cleansing Realm spread out, causing everyone to shudder. The sounds that had been heard from the inner hall to the outer hall quickly ceased, leaving a complete silence as everyone looked at Xie Yun with confusion.
Xie Yun said calmly, "If you have something to say, say it. If not, you can leave."
At the front, seated among the core disciples of a top-tier sect, Chen Ping, seemingly having already received guidance from his sect elders, cupped his hands and said, "This junior has only come to offer birthday wishes. I have nothing to do with you, so I will take my leave now."
After saying that, he turned and left quickly.
Immediately afterwards, Guo Yuan and the others also bowed and took their leave.
Lu Ming stood up, about to speak, when he saw Lin Feng, who was sitting not far away, stand up and respectfully say, "Thank you, Senior. I am Lin Feng, a core disciple of the Myriad Manifestations Sect. I have come here today hoping that you can cooperate with the Myriad Manifestations Sect to refine cultivation elixirs for the sect."
Upon hearing this, many of the core disciples from top-tier sects, including Guo Yuan, who were leaving, turned to look at Lin Feng and shook their heads slightly.
Want to win Xie Yun over?
It's not that easy!
Xie Yun calls himself the Medicine Emperor, and his medicines are extremely rare in Qingning Prefecture.
Even top-tier sects have to pay exorbitant fees to get him to help them even once.
Many sects wanted the Medicine Emperor to cooperate with them and provide them with cultivation elixirs, but even top-tier sects failed to succeed.
Not to mention the Wanxiang Sect, a mere second-rate sect.
Upon hearing this, Xie Yun also showed disdain, and then asked those around him, "What gift did Lin Feng of the Myriad Manifestations Sect send? He dares to ask me to cooperate!"
The servant replied, "Reporting to Master, the medicines sent by Lin Feng of the Myriad Manifestations Sect include various kinds of demon meat, rare and precious herbs, and many other valuable drugs. Specifically—"
Upon hearing this, Xie Yun's disdain lessened slightly, and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes as he looked at Lin Feng.
The key point is that the portion size is not small.
All of it together is almost comparable to the treasury of some second-rate sects.
In particular, several types of rare and precious materials were exactly what Xie Yun needed.
Clearly, Lin Feng has gathered a great deal of power behind him, and they are determined to win him over and cooperate with the Myriad Manifestations Sect.
Xie Yun pondered for a moment and said, "With these gifts, you certainly have the right to say that."
Seeing this, Lu Ming frowned. Seeing the surprise and pride on Lin Feng's face as he looked at him, he no longer hesitated and immediately stood up and said, "Thank you, senior. I am also a core disciple of the Myriad Manifestations Sect. My name is Lu Ming. I have come here today to ask you to cooperate with the Myriad Manifestations Sect in alchemy."
Upon hearing this, Xie Yun's expression changed instantly, turning grim. He shouted, "What do you take me for? A pawn in the sect's internal competition? Get out! Take the junk you gave me and get out!"
Lu Ming was taken aback, not expecting Xie Yun's attitude to change so quickly. Moreover, he even directly denied Lin Feng, whom he had just affirmed.
Xie Yun is known for being straightforward, so why has his attitude suddenly changed 180 degrees?
He had previously investigated and found that there were precedents in Qingning Prefecture City for people from the same sect to try to win over the same pharmacist at the same time.
The pharmacist saw that the two were competing, so he played both sides and finally got enough benefits before choosing one of them.
Unexpectedly, the situation was completely different when it came to Xie Yun.
This person was indeed eccentric and unpredictable.
Seeing Xie Yun storm off, Lin Feng immediately became angry and said to Lu Ming, "You—I was almost successful, and you suddenly interfered. Are you deliberately trying to ruin things?"
Lu Ming ignored him; Xie Yun's personality was also part of the competition.
If this leads to Lin Feng's failure, it's not his fault. Just because Lin Feng spoke first, does that mean he can't speak again?
That doesn't make sense!
At this moment, Lin Feng looked helpless and frustrated, clearly believing that the matter was over and he was about to give up.
Lu Ming stepped forward and said, "Thank you, Senior. I have the Medicine Emperor's Token here. Please reconsider."
Upon hearing this, Xie Yun immediately stopped and turned around to see that Lu Ming was indeed holding a token, which was none other than the Medicine Emperor's Token that he had issued years ago.
"It really is my token!" Xie Yun frowned slightly.
Each Medicine Emperor's Decree he issues is equivalent to a favor he does.
In recent years, he has collected almost all of the Medicine King Tokens, but unexpectedly there is still one Medicine King Token left to collect.
He immediately ordered his men to fetch Lu Ming's Medicine King Token, held it in his hand and examined it, then asked, "Where did you get this Medicine King Token?"
Lu Ming said, "This junior dares not hide it. I obtained this token from Feng Li, the leader of the Tiger Head Gang, after I destroyed the Tiger Head Gang in the city. As for how he obtained it, I have no idea."
Xie Yun sized up Lu Ming, his expression shifting: "You wiped out the Tiger Head Gang all by yourself? I remember the Tiger Head Gang leader was a Bone Forging Realm martial artist."
Lu Ming nodded and said, "That's right, I was lucky enough to wipe out the gang."
A stroke of luck—to wipe out the gang?
Xie Yun's lips twitched. Could annihilating a gang really be a fluke? Without absolute confidence, who would dare to venture in alone?
This Lu Ming is quite interesting.
Lin Feng, who was standing to the side, was dumbfounded. He never expected that things would take such a dramatic turn and that Lu Ming would actually have the Medicine Emperor's Decree!
He certainly knew about the Medicine Emperor's Token; if he had it today, he would undoubtedly have won. Unfortunately, despite spending a fortune trying to collect one, he hadn't succeeded.
Lu Ming actually obtained the Medicine Emperor Token when he wiped out the Tiger Head Gang. How could this guy have such incredible luck!
Seeing that Xie Yun seemed to be interested, Lin Feng felt a pang of bitterness in his heart. He had thought he would lose, but he never expected to lose in this way.
He had the backing of the Lin family, the law enforcement elder Xu Li, the skill transmission elder Gu Yue, and the deputy sect leader Liu Qiushui, yet he still couldn't compare to a mere token!
Lu Ming gripped the hilt of his knife and sensed that Xie Yun was inclined to cooperate with him, which immediately filled him with joy.
It seems that Xie Yun, despite his eccentric personality, still values his promises very much.
Just then, he vaguely heard a voice outside: "Come on, come on, how long have you been loitering here? So what if you're the deputy head of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion? You're not the deputy head of the prefectural city!"
Deputy Pavilion Master of Tianji Pavilion?
Lu Ming's heart skipped a beat. He turned his head and saw a weak middle-aged man in the outer hall. His face was haggard and pale. He tried his best to shout, "Thank you, Medicine King. Please help me prepare a medicine."
However, he was pushed and shoved by the servants of the Xie family and driven out.
Lu Ming's head buzzed. It was Qin Zhonghai!
He couldn't find him anywhere, but unexpectedly, Qin Zhonghai was actually around the Xie residence, just to ask Xie Yun to refine medicine for him.
The scene of Qin Zhonghai coming to him to exchange lightness skills in front of the Li family's arena in Chiyun County that day, and being surrounded by the leaders of various forces like a star, still echoed in his mind.
At this moment, he became so humble and weak!
Lu Ming felt a sudden tightness in his chest and rushed over without hesitation.
