After walking a distance, Sun Chenghao and his group encountered the Floating Sect. The leader of the group was Le You, the senior disciple of the Floating Sect. Unfortunately, Shangguan Meng was also in the group.
"Fellow Daoist Sun, what's wrong with you?" Le You asked in surprise.
"Sigh, bad luck. We ran into a fifth-tier demonic beast and almost got wiped out," Sun Chenghao replied, patting his junior brother who was holding him. "Alright, put me down."
"hiss--"
The members of the Floating Sect gasped in shock, "You actually encountered a fifth-tier demonic beast!"
Sun Chenghao didn't want to talk about it anymore. After all, they were not innocent at all. They were the ones who first abused and killed the monster's child, so it was only right that they were retaliated against by the monster.
That's how the cultivation world is—it's a dog-eat-dog world with little moral restraint, especially between different races.
"What happened to this senior sister's face? It's so bad, she might be disfigured!" Shangguan Meng exclaimed.
Upon hearing this, the disciples of Fengyang Sect all looked rather grim.
"Fellow Daoist Shangguan, be careful with your words," Liu Haozhi said in a deep voice.
"I didn't say anything wrong," Shangguan Meng said innocently.
Jiang Lan had been awake for a while, but she hadn't opened her eyes; she was avoiding the sight of the injury on her face. There was almost no flesh left on the left side of her face, and when she accidentally touched the bone in her face, she knew her face was beyond repair.
But when she heard Shangguan Meng point it out in public, even though she was prepared, she was still extremely upset. She wanted to glare at Shangguan Meng, but the moment she opened her eyes, tears blurred her vision and streamed down her face.
The Foundation Establishment disciple holding her panicked and hurriedly wiped her tears with his sleeve. "Junior sister, don't cry. Your wound hasn't healed yet. If you cry, it will hurt your wound."
Jiang Lan didn't want to cry, but she just couldn't stop. The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. Her initial silent crying quickly turned into wailing, and her desperate appearance was truly moving.
"Actually, it's not that there's no way," Shangguan Meng said.
As soon as she said this, everyone looked at her. Even Jiang Lan stopped crying and looked at Shangguan Meng with hope.
Shangguan Meng enjoyed the moment when she was the center of attention. She raised her chin slightly and said, "The Crimson Pill Sect has released a new sixth-grade pill called the Face Repairing Pill, which can heal all scars on the face."
Sun Chenghao frowned. "Sixth-grade pills are high-level pills, and their price is not low. Given Junior Sister Jiang Lan's wealth—"
"Let Junior Sister Bai Xue use spirit stones to buy it," Liu Haozhi interjected.
"Why should I!" Bai Xue exclaimed in frustration.
"Junior Sister Jiang Lan was injured because of you, shouldn't you buy it?" Liu Haozhi retorted. "It was because of you that we almost all died this time. We don't want your compensation, we just want you to buy Junior Sister Jiang Lan a Rejuvenation Pill."
Everyone looked at Bai Xue with condemnation. Bai Xue knew that if she dared to say no, her reputation in Fengyang Sect would be ruined, and even if she had a Nascent Soul stage ancestor, no one would be willing to play with her anymore.
"I'll buy it," Bai Xue said through gritted teeth, her heart aching. How many high-grade spirit stones would a level six pill cost? Fifty thousand? Or one hundred thousand?
Shangguan Meng sized up Bai Xue, "Tsk, troublemaker."
Bai Xue couldn't refute it, and could only glare fiercely at Shangguan Meng. Shangguan Meng, however, was not afraid of her and said calmly, "The Rejuvenation Pill is not easy to buy. It is not easy to refine, and there are many people queuing up. Even if there is an old ancestor in the Nascent Soul stage, he will not give you face. Unless you have a relationship with him, or you can offer him something that will tempt him."
Everyone present fell silent. Anyone who could refine a sixth-grade pill was at least a sixth-grade alchemist. Where were they supposed to find a sixth-grade alchemist?
Suddenly someone suggested, "Why don't we ask Fellow Daoist He Yu?"
At this moment, all the disciples of Fengyang Sect looked at Li Ze, thinking that since He Yu had made a move, the lowest grade of the pills must be level four, and maybe he had some connections.
Li Ze was fast asleep and unaware that everyone was talking about him. Liu Haozhi glanced at him, then turned to the others, "After He Yu wakes up, I'll ask him on everyone's behalf."
The people from the Floating Sect also noticed Li Ze. At first glance, they were captivated by Li Ze's delicate face and his fair, jade-like skin.
How can someone be so good-looking!
"Who is he? I've never heard of him before?" Shangguan Meng leaned close to a Foundation Establishment disciple and whispered her inquiry.
"I don't know, my senior brother brought it back." The Foundation Establishment disciple, always eager for a good show, said something that left much to the imagination.
Shangguan Meng's pupils contracted slightly. "Brought back by Senior Brother Mo?"
The Foundation Establishment disciple nodded.
"What is his relationship with Senior Brother Mo?" Shangguan Meng pressed. Although the mainstream of the cultivation world is still the balance of Yin and Yang, there are quite a few who like men.
"I don't know. My senior brother brought the person here and told us to take good care of them before he left."
"......."
Li Ze didn't want to wake up so soon, but a burning gaze filled with jealousy and hatred remained fixed on him.
He frowned, opened his eyes and saw a somewhat familiar face opposite him. Wasn't this one of He Xingjue's admirers?
The thought of the words "admirer" made Li Ze's brows furrow even deeper.
"He Yu, you're awake?" Liu Haozhi asked in surprise.
Li Ze hummed in agreement. "How long did I sleep?"
"Two or three hours. How are you feeling now? Are you feeling better?" Liu Haozhi asked.
Li Ze yawned. "I'm still a little sleepy. Shall we rest here?"
Looking at the droopy eyelids of the person in front of him, Liu Haozhi suspected that if he just said "yes," the other person would fall asleep instantly. But before falling asleep, he needed to find out more about the situation. He hadn't noticed that ever since the other person woke up, Jiang Lan's eyes had been fixed on them, almost as if she were about to pounce on them.
