33 Decision (2/2)
These spiritual pills did not have harmful side-effects and its effects were miraculous, as such, each type of pills was highly sought after by martial artists who were willing to fight for them.
For example, the 'Frozen Moon Pill' that her master got for her, was compatible with her body and allowed her to improve her martial arts skills by leaps and bounds. It would also increase the chance of success for her in the future when she attempted to break through the 3 Perilous Gates!
Before she witnessed it with her own eyes, Lin Leiyue would never imagine such a thing actually existed!
It was only natural that the alchemy masters were powerful members of the society where they were well-received. No one dared to offend them given their skills.
For example, the alchemy master that she visited had a Wu Zong that acted as a bodyguard. If it was not for the friendship that the alchemy master had with Shi Yutong, the alchemy master would not have stepped in to help Lin Leiyue.
This alchemy master was only a small part of the higher-levelled cultivation world!
Lin Leiyue was overwhelmed by her emotions when she thought of these.
Even though she was a lady, she dreamt to reach the pinnacle.
”I will not disappoint my master!”
Lin Leiyue bowed with firm resolution.
”Haha...That's good!”
Shi Yutong helped her up with both hands, and said, ”Now, you just have to train hard. With the aid of the pill, you would be able to swiftly overcome the Pain Gate and increase your inner power. After that, I will make you a the successor of the sect. No one will dare to say a thing!”
'Brother Fang...'
Lin Leiyue thought of the ordinary youth that lived in the secluded valley when she heard this.
At that time, her master cancelled the wedding without understanding the details, and Lin Leiyue was in no position to resist.
If she was given another chance, would she have challenged the decision now that she had made up her mind?
Lin Leiyue's heart was in a mess. This was the first time she was perplexed...
...
”We have reached Qinghe County!”
Not far away, a carriage pulled by an ox drew closer. Fang Yuan gazed out at the city wall and smiled.
This was the first time that he had come to a big city and as such, he was excited.
”Cough cough...”
Zhou Wenwu insisted on accompanying Fang Yuan despite his illness. His face was an unnatural shade of red. ”Once we reach the territory of the sect, not even Song Zhong would be able to do a thing. However, he would certainly arrange for brutes to stop me at the city gate...”
There were many routes along the way. As long as they were willing to detour, it was easy to avoid being blocked unless Song Zhong was the head of the Spirit Returning Sect.
However, if he had guessed that Zhou Wenwu was making his way to Qinghe County, it would be easy to just wait for him there.
”Brother Fang, do you have any idea?”
Zhou Wenwu looked expectedly at Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan would not let anyone call him 'Master' on the journey as it would bring attention to himself.
Furthermore, his age was similar to Zhou Wenwu and after a few small talks, the two became closer and used it as an opportunity to change the way they addressed each other.
”I do not have a plan. However, I have a stupid idea!”
Fang Yuan's lips curled into a smile, ”We just choose a door and barge in. It is that simple!”
”I see...”
Zhou Wenwu would never imagine that Fang Yuan's idea was to use simple brute force to barge in.
”This problem was caused by Song Zhong himself. Unless his faction would make a grave error and send people to stop us?”
Fang Yuan spread his arms, ”This county has four gates, and as long as we are not too unlucky, we have low chance of meeting him unless he can split his body...”
He would be able to deal with the road blockers single-handedly if they were Song Zhong's disciples.
”What if...”
Zhou Wenwu was hesitant. He did not want to jeopardise the revenge now that it was within his grasp.
”If we really clash with Song Zhong, we can only duel with him. The members of the Spirit Returning Sect would come if there was a big commotion right?”
Fang Yuan glanced at Zhou Wenwu.
If they did not even know how to make use of such a wonderful opportunity, Song Zhong would be able to exterminate Zhou Tong's faction.
”That's right! We shall do as you say!”
Zhou Wenwu gritted his teeth.
He had nothing to be afraid of if an outsider like Fang Yuan would dare to do such a thing.
Little did he know that Fang Yuan dared to do so due to the fact that he was highly skilled in martial arts.
In the event that they met Song Zhong, he just had to use Zhou Wenwu as a shield and escape.
Song Zhong had no idea that he was the killer and would not chase him like a mad dog.
Furthermore, if Zhou Wenwu was killed by Song Zhong in front of everybody, it would further condemn Song Zhong!
”It is best for an outsider not to meddle in a battle between factions…...If I take part in and did not handle the conflict well enough, I would likely be attacked by both sides or be used by them as a pawn!”
Having the experience from another world, Fang Yuan's heart was clear like a mirror, ”Whatever the case, once this is done, I must quickly escape and leave this place as far as possible.”
