Mao Chengbi didn't take Song Chen's death to heart. He was mean and ungrateful, and his first consideration was profit. The reason why he sent people to capture Ye Xinghe was because of Ye Xinghe's magical power, the Nine Heavens Seal; the reason why he captured the pharmacist was to make this pharmacist who could refine elixirs to improve martial arts qualifications become his medicine slave.
Once the elixir that can improve martial arts aptitude is developed and put on the market, it will definitely be in short supply. He will soon become a wealthy man, and through resource and capital operations, it is not impossible for him to enter the Danding Immortal Sect in the future.
He observed the injuries of Shi Jinpeng and Guo Zuoren and judged that they were probably injured by a single move from someone. The person who could injure two nine-star emperor masters with just one move should be a terrestrial immortal.
No matter how the Earth Immortal is, he should have no chance of escaping in front of his large group of people and his own three-star Earth Immortal peerless powerhouse.
More than a thousand soldiers gathered. The soldiers riding on the fairy birds set out first and arrived at the small fishing village. Then the soldiers riding on the Pegasus rushed towards the small fishing village, and finally the infantry.
There are only sixteen or seventeen households in the small fishing village, all of which live in thatched huts with fenced courtyards.
The people left in the village were all old, weak, sick and disabled. The situation on the front line was tense, and all the able-bodied men and women were conscripted to fight in Kongyi City.
The people in the small fishing village looked at the soldiers riding on the flying birds in the sky, and at the soldiers in shining helmets and armor riding on the fat and strong Pegasus. There was solemnity in their eyes. More than a thousand people rushed over from Kongyi City. Ye Xinghe was in danger.
When they saw the soldiers surrounding Ye Xinghe's house, they all sighed in their hearts: "I don't know what's wrong with Ye Xinghe. The soldiers come to their house from time to time."
"Yes, I heard that they seem to have some secret manual of supernatural powers at home, which is very powerful. Mao Chengbi wants the secret manual, so he often sends people to harass them."
"Oh, the pharmacist that Ye Xinghe invited just now killed a soldier. This matter has become a big deal. The army will not let it go if the soldier dies."
"Ye Xinghe is such a fool. If the secret book has no use, why not just give it to him? Now, his son and daughter-in-law have died in the war. I don't think he will last long."
"We are too old to take care of it. I will just stay at home and see how things develop."
…
The soldiers surrounded Ye Xinghe's house in three layers, and no one took any action without orders from their superiors.
Ye Xinghe is currently receiving treatment. He feels that one third of the injuries in his body have been repaired. The Danxian’s skills are amazing. Even though his injuries are so serious, he can still heal them quickly with amazing results. He is definitely a skilled Danxian.
I am so lucky.
Huh! Ye Xiangyang let out a long breath, then put his hand away and took a pill. Ye Xinghe's life was saved.
It only takes three days to guide him to take the medicine again and he will be 80% better. After taking the third pill, the old man will be able to fully recover.
When the time comes, I will give him another Emperor Immortal Pill to regain some of his life. It will be no problem for the old man to live for a hundred or so years in the heaven.
Ye Chengwen's house was surrounded by soldiers in three layers. Suddenly, the soldiers opened a gap in the main gate defense line. A general with a long face and hooked nose, protected by a dozen guards, rode a horse and rushed directly to Ye Xinghe's house with great momentum.
It was the captain Mao Chengbi.
Mao Chengbi sat upright on his horse and looked at Ye Xinghe with a look of surprise in his eyes. Ye Xinghe was a dying man. He had received news yesterday that he would not live for more than a month. Now it seemed that he was no longer dead and full of vitality. He could not help but secretly admire the pharmacist's clever methods. The more so, the more he could not let him go. The pharmacist was his cash cow.
Captain Mao Chengbi was feeling agitated, but he didn't show it on his face. He dismounted from his horse, his armor shining brightly, and his steps made a loud noise.
Ye Xinghe opened his eyes, looked at Mao Chengbi who looked murderous, and then looked at Ye Xiangyang who was extremely handsome. He stood up and said to Mao Chengbi: "General, everything is my responsibility. If there is anything, I will take responsibility for it alone."
Mao Chengbi's eyes were grim, as if they could devour a living person: "You took it all on yourself? Then let me ask you, how did my soldier Song Chen die? How did squad leader Shi Jinpeng and Guo Zuoren get injured?"
"The situation on the front line is tense right now. Our soldiers are risking their lives to protect you. What did you do? You beat them to death or injured them. This is a blasphemy against our Dan Ding Divine Sect. This is treason and you deserve to die. I can't appease you unless I kill you. How can you bear the anger in my soldiers' hearts?"
Ye Xinghe was speechless. Mao Chengbi was right. The situation at the front was tense and the death of soldiers would easily lead to a backlash among the soldiers. What's more, Mao Chengbi had to create opportunities even when he had no opportunities, let alone such a good opportunity
"General, if you want to punish someone, punish me. I am willing to be responsible for Song Chen's death."
Mao Chengbi smiled coldly: "You, an old man, can be as good as one of my soldiers? You think too highly of yourself."
"Come here, take these three away to me. If they resist, kill them without mercy."
Ye Xiangyang smiled coldly: "General, I'm afraid you have a splitting headache every time you reach midnight, and you feel like dying, right? This stubborn disease has existed for a hundred years, and no one has cured it no matter how many people you consult."
When Mao Chengbi heard this, he waved his hand and quickly stopped his men from arresting people.
He waved his hand and the guards stopped.
Mao Chengbi stared at Ye Xiangyang with eyes as sharp as knives. His cultivation as a three-star earthly immortal was fully released, and a murderous aura rushed straight towards Ye Xiangyang.
His soldiers couldn't help but step back a few steps. Ye Chengwen and Ye Xinghe were even worse. With the support of Ye Chengwen, Ye Xinghe retreated about two meters before stopping. Even after retreating so far, he still felt that Mao Chengbi's pressure was unbearable.
The cultivation level of the earthly immortals is so terrifying.
Mao Chengbi walked towards Ye Xiangyang step by step, using his cultivation to oppress him. He wanted to use his cultivation to oppress Ye Xiangyang and let him understand that his cultivation was so powerful so that he could subdue this boy.
There is no difference between oppression from an earthly immortal and actually reaching out. If it is an emperor, the oppression can directly crush him to death.
He was surprised to find that Ye Xiangyang was standing there, without using any of his skills, and still looked calm and composed. He was like the oppression of a mountain range, but to the boy opposite him it was like a gentle breeze. No, it was even simpler than a gentle breeze.
"Can you cure my disease?"
Ye Xiangyang smiled slightly. Facing the pressure from Mao Chengbi that was like a mountain, he still smiled so brightly and sunnyly: "I can tell your illness at a glance. What do you think?"
"How long will it take to cure?" Mao Chengbi heard from the disciples of Danding Divine Sect that it would take a long time for a master to eradicate this disease, at least a year. If the boy in front of him heard about his disease from hearsay, it would not be surprising. If that was the case, he would definitely not know how long it would take.
Ye Xiangyang smiled like a sunny boy next door and raised his right index finger: "One year."
Mao Chengbi's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes were filled with desire. Every time it was midnight, he had a splitting headache, and he felt like he was living a life worse than death. He wanted to commit suicide many times. He had accumulated so much money, and he also thought of going to Danding Xianzong to ask for treatment.
The money spent by the Immortal Sect elders was frighteningly expensive. It took me so long to accumulate half the wealth that the elders could use to treat my illness.
Mao Chengbi dispersed all his momentum, looked at Ye Xiangyang and asked, "How can I trust you?"
Ye Xiangyang smiled slightly: "It's easy, I will refine a pill for you, you take it, and you won't have a headache within three days."
Mao Chengbi stared at him: "Okay, if you can really cure my headache, we will become sworn brothers."
Ye Xiangyang smiled faintly: "No need, you just need to pay me enough for the consultation."
Ye Xiangyang sneered in his heart, are you worthy enough to be my brother
Mao Chengbi's eyes flashed with a cold light. Ye Xiangyang did not agree to his request, which made him lose face in front of his subordinates and severely slap himself in the face. This kid doesn't know whether to live or die. Humph, wait until you cure my illness, and then I will deal with you.
"I've been treated, but I wonder how much the treatment fee will be?"
Ye Xiangyang said calmly: "That's a later story, let's talk about it later. I'll refine a pill for you first to see if it works, and then we can talk again."
Mao Chengbi nodded: "Let the soldiers withdraw, bury Song Chen with honor, and give his family enough pension. This is a misunderstanding."
The soldiers took away Song Chen's body and retreated quickly, leaving only Mao Chengbi and a dozen guards in Ye Xinghe's courtyard.
Mao Chengbi looked at Ye Xinghe and said, "Mr. Ye, are you healed?"
The reason why he believed that Ye Xiangyang could cure his illness was because he saw Ye Xinghe come back to life.
Ye Xinghe nodded: "Yes, the pharmacist has great skills in bringing people back to life. With just one pill, he can bring me back to life."
Mao Chengbi secretly calculated in his heart that no matter what, when he cured his illness, he would take the magical power of the Nine Heavens Seal from Ye Xinghe. Perhaps, it would be realized soon, and the master of Danding Xianzong would come. As long as he came, he would give the puppet pill to the pharmacist and Ye Xinghe, and they would all become his puppets. Wouldn't it be like that? You would do whatever I told you to do
"Yes, I hope the pharmacist can bring me back to health, so I won't have to suffer a nightmare at night."
The door of the hut creaked open, and in an hour, Ye Xiangyang finished refining the elixir.
Ye Xiangyang gave the jade bottle to Mao Chengbi. Mao Chengbi seemed grateful on the surface, but he was thinking in his heart that the elixir should be taken to the military camp and tested by the military doctor there.
He was worried about Ye Xiangyang. If he used some poison on him or if there were any side effects, he would suffer a great loss.
Mao Chengbi left, and he left about ten people to guard the small fishing village. Pharmacist and Ye Xinghe must not let them escape.
If they escape, kill them without mercy!
The Nine Heavens Seal must be his, and the pharmacist must become his own medicine slave.
Since being tough doesn't work, then try being soft. It will just be a waste of more money. If he really makes medicine for me that can improve my martial arts aptitude, the cost will be recovered in a blink of an eye.
This deal is still worth it.
Ps: Let me say that the chapter I just mentioned, Chapter 24, is a chapter of a short story I wrote called "Opening the Door to Youth". I accidentally updated it to this book when I was updating it. I am really ashamed. I sincerely apologize to all my brothers. I am sorry. I am really sorry.
