Chapter 31 Malicious Shen Wei: I thank you on behalf of the spirit beast!
Incense was lit in the room. Chen Liqing was sitting on a chair, practicing with his eyes closed. Suddenly, he heard a slight sound coming from the window. The sound was very small, but it was enough to attract his attention and make him come out of his practice.
He turned his head to look at the window, but found no movement, so he waited for a moment. Sure enough, after a while, the sound from the window came again, which proved that the sound he heard before was not an illusion.
Chen Liqing decisively stood up and walked towards the window. He leaned against the wall and gently opened the window with the short blade he carried with him, trying to see through the gap what made the noise.
He was so focused on staring out the window that he didn't notice a dark shadow flash past the door.
In fact, he had been feeling a little uneasy since he entered Luo City today. Thinking about it carefully, it might be because he saw a man wearing a spirit snake mask at the base of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect at the city gate.
Snake... This is not a very pleasant memory for Chen Liqing.
"He should be dead." Chen Liqing murmured in a low voice: "He was stabbed in the vital spot, there is no reason for him not to be dead."
This sentence seemed to have convinced him. Chen Liqing's face relaxed a little. He stepped back cautiously and sat back in his original place. Now he has jumped from an unknown outer disciple to a favored child of heaven.
This feeling of reaching the top overnight is too good to be true. No one wants to lose it.
But even so, he still felt a little uneasy.
In the next room, Chen Wei directly opened the luggage carried by other alchemy disciples. Everything else was secondary, but as soon as he entered here, he smelled a strong scent of demon pills. There must be a demon pill of a spirit beast that was taken away by them, and it has not been disposed of yet.
Shen Wei's face looked a little ugly. He half squatted down and looked through it carefully.
“Brother, do you think the leader of the Myriad Beast Sect will really come this time?” The sound of two people coming upstairs was heard from outside, and one of them said, “I don’t know what kind of spiritual beast this leader is. I heard that he has the bloodline of a divine beast, otherwise how could he cultivate so quickly in such a short time.”
"I will definitely come." Another person responded: "We have paid a lot this time. I hope everything can go as smoothly as Senior Brother Liqing expected. If it goes well..."
They were excited just to think about the possibility.
If everything goes well, it means they will have an endless supply of demon pills.
The reason why everyone in the cultivation world dared not to touch the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect was simply because they were afraid of Chen Wei and the other four peak masters.
"But Senior Brother Liqing and that..." Just as the person who started to speak was about to speak, another person immediately covered his mouth, then looked around and said in a low voice: "Is it okay to say that? Shut up."
The person who spoke realized that he almost said the wrong thing and immediately stopped talking.
Chen Wei, who was in the room, took most of what he said to heart. As he had expected, this sect meeting was aimed at the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, and at him at the same time.
But now the two men were almost at the door. Shen Wei looked around and was about to jump out the window to leave when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a porcelain bottle under the pillow from the corner of his eye.
He smelled a bloody scent of demon pill.
He quickly picked up the porcelain bottle, opened it, and saw a bloody, spiritual demon pill inside. Chen Wei quickly put it into the brocade bag. When he was about to leave, he suddenly stopped, fumbled in the brocade bag, and took out another thing that was somewhat similar to the demon pill from a porcelain bottle. He casually cut his finger, smeared the blood on the pill, disguised it as bloody, and stuffed it back into the white porcelain bottle.
He put everything back in place, and without thinking, he immediately climbed out the window and left.
As he stood on the street, fine beads of cold sweat had already appeared on his palms. He had never done anything like this before. This was the first time.
It was only a moment away from being discovered.
If there hadn't been a loud shout coming from the next room, Shen Wei would have been discovered. But in fact, even if he was discovered, it wouldn't be a problem. This group of Dan Sect disciples couldn't do anything to him. But after all, it would damage the reputation of the Wanshou Sect.
Chen Wei didn't care about anything else at the moment. He entered through the main entrance of the inn, pretending to be going in to eat, but was stopped by the waiter, who smiled and said, "I'm sorry, sir, our inn has been booked out today. I'm really sorry."
Originally, Shen Wei had not come here for dinner, so he just nodded as an excuse when he heard this. He quickly glanced at the room where Chen Liqing lived, then waved his hand and left.
The loud shout came from Chen Liqing, but it is not difficult to guess that it should be related to Duan Zhou.
Chen Wei didn't know what happened in Chen Liqing's room. After wandering outside the inn for two rounds, he felt a little anxious. When he was about to find a way to go in again, he met Duan Zhou who was swaggering towards him from the market. He was wearing a spirit snake mask and holding two candied haws in his hand.
"Here." He handed one to Shen Wei and said, "Try it, it tastes good."
Chen Wei was stunned for a moment, then took the candied haws from Duan Zhou's hand. He looked at Duan Zhou for a second, then at the candied haws. Duan Zhou said in a steady tone with a hint of smile, "Let's go. There are many unpalatable things in Luo City, but not many delicious things. Candied haws is one of them."
"You are really familiar with this place." Shen Wei said with emotion.
They walked back along the street. On the way, Duan Zhou glanced at Chen Wei. He breathed a sigh of relief only after confirming that the other party was not injured.
He didn't know why he was relieved. It was obvious that Chen Wei was much stronger than these good-for-nothings, but he was still worried because they were almost exposed.
"How did you get out? Why did Chen Liqing scream?" Shen Wei approached Duan Zhou and asked in a low voice.
They were too close, and it was the Lantern Festival, so there were too many people coming and going, so crowded that Shen Wei and Duan Zhou were almost pressed together. Duan Zhou shook his head and said, "Let's go back and talk about it. It's too noisy here."
"Okay." Shen Wei nodded.
After returning to the residence of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect from the market, other cultivators lived in the adjacent yards, and there was a group of furry creatures in front. These cultivators were considered to be relatively close to the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect.
"Chen Liqing is guilty of his crime, full of lies, ungrateful, and unfaithful to his friends." Duan Zhou entered the house and closed the door. He said, "On the way, I saw an old man making a snake shape with a vine and throwing it on his bed. He screamed out of fright."
When Duan Zhou said this, his tone was calm, as if he was just narrating something that had nothing to do with him.
"Are you guilty of a crime?" Shen Wei asked.
"Maybe." Duan Zhou laughed and said, "Or maybe... he thought of something not so good."
For Chen Liqing, if Duan Zhou was still alive, it would not be a good thing.
However, Duan Zhou obviously didn't want to talk about this matter any more. He moved closer to Chen Wei, frowned and said, "Why do I feel the breath of the demon pill on you? What's going on?"
"Is this it?" Chen Wei took the demon pill out of the brocade bag. The demon pill still looked bloody and had at least 80% of its spiritual power. It was obvious that it had been skinned alive not long ago. If he guessed correctly, the two alchemists were going to use this demon pill to make medicine and then sell it.
Looking at the demon pill, Duan Zhou felt a dull pain in the wound on his abdomen. He pursed his lips unkindly and stared at the demon pill in silence. After a moment, he said, "The aura of this demon pill is a bit like that of a rabbit."
"I think so too." Shen Wei nodded.
Compared with ferocious beasts, it is actually more difficult for those weak spiritual beasts to practice cultivation. They are too easy to die on the road of cultivation. It is conceivable how much effort it takes to cultivate such a demon pill. However, it was easily dug out by these two pill cultivators.
Moreover, the spiritual power of the demon pill is not very pure, and there is a high probability that it has been drugged.
"Dan Zong." Chen Wei whispered these two words, his eyes fell on the bloody demon pill.
Once the demon pill is dug out, if the spirit beast is lucky, it will return to its original form and become an ordinary beast without consciousness, but there is a high probability that it will die directly.
At the sect conference, these people from the Dan Sect actually wanted to cause trouble for him?
Shen Wei now felt that maybe it was time for him to settle accounts with them.
"Do whatever you want." This time Duan Zhou did not tease Chen Wei again. He knew that the beast was suppressing its anger, so he said, "I promised you that at least this month, I will keep you safe."
Chen Weiding looked at Duan Zhou and said seriously and honestly: "On behalf of all the spirit beasts persecuted by Danzong, I thank you!"
