Chapter 400 - Mystic Breakthrough Pill (1/2)

Liu Yizhi and his retainer were led to the Ghost Faction’s courtyard. When Elder Ghost heard that Liu Yizhi had come, he instantly led all the disciples out the door to welcome him, and he deferentially brought him to sit down in the main hall.

“This old man heard that you just, cough, cough, cough, clashed with a girl from the Holy Water Sect, and even got deeply humiliated?”

Ghost Surd hastily bowed to beg for forgiveness. “Sir Liu, it-it’s our fault. We have caused humiliation for the Prefecture Lord.”

“Humph.” Liu Yizhi waved his hand and said in disdain, “Having such inferior cultivation, don’t even mention that you serve the Prefecture Lord outside.”

Ghost Surd didn’t dare speak and hung his head along with the rest of the Ghost Faction disciples. They stiffly listened to Liu Yizhi’s reprimand.

“Your Ghost Faction has investigated the matter this old man requested for three years already, but I haven’t even received a bit of news about it.”

Ghost Surd bitterly recounted, “Sir Liu, as the Holy Water Sect is far up on the snowy peak, its environment is really simplistic, so it’s difficult to sneak into. We had also sent two female disciples two years ago to infiltrate, but they did not pa.s.s that so-called holy water test.”

Liu Yizhi sneered. “You dare to keep saying that you serve the Prefecture Lord when you can’t even handle such a small matter properly? You’d better stop, cough, cough, cough.”

“Sir.” Ghost Surd and all the disciples simultaneously kneeled on the floor with a flump. “Please quell your anger, Sir. Please give us a little more time. This time, we will find out the truth of the Holy Water Spring no matter what.”

“Cough, cough, cough, cough.” The elderly man humphed coldly without a word and violently coughed without pause into his handkerchief.

“Sir, will that Holy Water Spring really be effective towards Sir’s illness?”

“You don’t have to worry about this matter.” Liu Yizhi impatiently waved a hand at them once again. “This old man has thirty years of experience in tempering pills, cough, cough, cough. Once I have the Holy Water Spring on hand, refining a mystic breakthrough pill that will allow me to break through to become a great level-15 mystic cultivator, and stepping into the ranks of the supreme strong is imminent.”
