His speed was so fast that everyone only saw a black shadow flash before their eyes and he had already appeared in front of the orange ”pill”.
Everyone looked at each other with doubtful expressions, but no one dared to speak. Even Mu Xiyu had forgotten to struggle.
The middle-aged man carefully picked up the round and bright yellow pill, as if he was protecting a peerless treasure. He then lightly took a breath at the pill, and closed his eyes with an expression of infatuation.
After a full ten seconds, he looked at Mu Xiyu with shining eyes and asked solemnly: ”Where did this pill come from?”
Mu Xiyu was startled for a moment, and subconsciously said: ”Su Bai gave it to me -”
”Su Bai?” The middle-aged man frowned.
When Qian Hu saw this, he hurriedly said, ”Su Bai is that brat who fixed the horse. Master Wu, don't worry, I already sent people to look for him!”
The middle-aged man's eyes flashed, and said solemnly: ”Immediately bring your people down, and ensure that Su Bai is brought over to me right now!”
”Yes sir!”
Qian Hu hurriedly left with the other black-clothed men. The middle-aged man took a deep breath and said calmly, ”This pill is useful to me, I'll take it!”
Mu Xiyu was a little doubtful, she truly did not understand why this fake pill given to him by Su Bai would arouse the interest of this so-called Master Wu, but she did not dare to ask too much.
Seeing this, Jiang Shaofeng probed: ”Master Wu, then my friend?”
The middle-aged man glanced at Lee Gaoxiong who was on the ground, waved his hand, and said: ”Let him go!”
Although the white-suited youth was unwilling, he did not dare to disobey the middle-aged man's orders. He glared viciously at Lee Gaoxiong, turned, and walked to the back of the sofa.
Lee Gaoxiong's face had long ago turned snow-white, his expression absent-minded as he was supported away by two boys. Never in his wildest dreams had he imagined that he would actually be saved by one of Su Bai's three useless ”pills”!
Jiang Shaofeng, Zhang Xu, Mu Xiyu and the rest all had complicated expressions. With their intelligence, how could they not see that the middle aged man regarded the pill as important, no, the pill? Could it be that this ordinary pill was really some kind of spiritual pill elixir?
At this moment, everyone thought back to what Su Bai had said when he took out the pill. This pill could cure 100 diseases, prevent 100 poisons, and had the effect of preserving one's face and prolonging one's life!
Especially Mu Xiyu, whose expression was extremely complicated. The middle-aged man's performance made her believe in what Su Bai had said earlier by a few points.
”Can you let us go now?” Mu Xiyu frowned and asked.
Middle-aged man looked at her and laughed: ”Leave?” ”I'm afraid it's not enough. I'm really curious about that little friend of yours right now!”
Others might not know the value of the Small Spirit Cultivating Pill, but as a martial cultivation of inner strength, how could he not know how precious it was? Putting everything aside, just a sniff from before had caused the bottleneck that had trapped him for several years to show signs of loosening. How could he not be alarmed? How could he not be tempted?
He wanted the pill, he wanted the person who had it!
Narrowing his eyes, he seemed to have thought of something and frowned towards Mu Xiyu, saying coldly: ”This pill, do you still have more on you?”
”Huh?” Mu Xiyu was startled, she shook her head, ”No more!”
The middle-aged man looked at her coldly but didn't say anything. He waved to the man in black behind him and said, ”Search them!” Don't let even one of them escape! ”
It was clear that he did not believe Mu Xiyu's words.
Mu Xiyu and the other girls looked at the expressionless man in front of them, their faces filled with fear as they retreated.
”What are you doing? I'm warning you, don't come over!”
