Chapter 239 Meng Sheng
"Uh, impotence, is this something you can talk about?"
"People are dead, why bother with face?"
…
"The medicine we distribute is a tonic. Even if it is ineffective, it will not cause death. This can be seen from the monks who have taken the medicine in the past few days. There are also rumors about this in the outside world. I think everyone has heard about it."
Liu Feng's eyes darkened, and he bowed to the people around him. Then he looked at the middle-aged man and said, "What happened to you during the day and night you left Xianlai Sect? Did you eat anything by mistake or get injured? We don't know. I'm also very sorry for your son's death, but I can't do anything about it."
Already knowing that this person came here intentionally to cause trouble, Liu Feng knew that the matter had to be resolved as soon as possible and could not be dragged on to allow them to discredit the Xianlai Sect.
So after he thought he had finished explaining, he turned cold and said, "This is the place for disciples to register. No one is allowed to disturb you. Please leave as soon as possible."
As he spoke, he deliberately released his pressure towards the group of people.
Liu Feng has already reached the Nascent Soul stage, while the people in front of him are at most at the Foundation Establishment stage. Although there are more people, they cannot make up for the huge gap in cultivation.
Soon they felt heavy in their hearts and fearful, and they didn't even dare to look directly at Liu Feng.
But the thought of retreating only lasted for a moment, and the middle-aged man gritted his teeth fiercely, "We came here because we trust the Xianlai Sect, and we never thought that my son would lose his life because of this! We have been safe and sound all the way, and we only touched your bowl of medicine soup. If you don't admit it, then we will not leave here, so that others can see the true face of your Xianlai Sect!"
"That's right, pay for my nephew's life!"
"You still want to shirk your debt? Bah! What a lousy sect!"
"Too many people are trying so hard to get into this crappy sect. Are they blind?"
"Oh, even if they get in, they will regret it. My son's today is their tomorrow!"
The group of people also spoke excitedly one by one, pointing at the disciples who were queuing.
Liu Feng couldn't help but frown and looked around, and found that some people were really affected by these words. With a flicker in their eyes, they chose to leave the queue.
That's nothing. The Xianlai Sect doesn't think highly of such wavering people. It's just right for him to leave. There's nothing to regret.
However, the Xianlai Sect cannot afford such a stain. There will always be some unclear-minded people who believe in rumors. If the reputation of the Xianlai Sect is tarnished, it will be difficult to make up for it.
Liu Feng winked at Lu Lai, motioning her to come forward, and the two of them drove the group away.
If soft tactics don't work, use hard tactics. I've said what I needed to say, and there's no point in repeating the same thing.
But at this moment, someone was seen walking out of the mountain gate.
The person who came was not Chen Lan, nor was it Mo Jiuwei, but a male cultivator with an elegant appearance and dressed in white.
"Is this Zheng Kaiyang who claimed to have died of poisoning after taking the medicine?"
The man walked up to the corpse, observed it and asked.
"That's right, who are you?" Zheng Kaiyang's father, Zheng Shu asked him.
"My name is Meng Sheng." The male cultivator in white said calmly.
Who is Meng Sheng? Could he be someone from the Xianlai Sect?
Zheng Shu was about to ask a question when he heard someone exclaim—
"Meng Sheng? But he is a Earth-level alchemist, Senior Meng?"
The person who spoke was a female cultivator who was standing by the roadside watching. She was very surprised and stared at Meng Sheng.
"What? Earth-level Alchemist?"
"But is it the alchemist Meng Sheng who was in Yishui Pavilion before?"
"Ah, I've heard of him. He's the alchemist who saved the number one swordsman!"
"The first swordsman? Yi Yang?"
With the female cultivator's reminder, others also gradually reacted.
Meng Sheng smiled when he heard this, "It's me."
"It's really Master Meng Dan!"
There was a commotion in the crowd.
Meng Sheng was once an alchemist at Yishui Pavilion, specializing in treating illnesses and had a great reputation.
The thing that made him famous was that the number one swordsman Yi Yang once came to him to treat his injuries. It was said that Yi Yang's injuries were so serious that he almost couldn't hold the sword anymore.
Fortunately, Master Meng Dan had superb medical skills and was able to refine the elixir in time to treat Yi Yang, which prevented Yi Yang from having regrets for the rest of his life.
only……
In front of Meng Sheng, many people did not say the following words.
It was just that Meng Sheng had bad luck, and seemed to have been harmed by a villain, causing his dantian to be severely injured, so that he could no longer make elixirs.
After the accident, Master Meng had sought help from many alchemists, but injuries of this degree were not something that ordinary people could cure. Even though he had many earth-level friends, they were also unable to cure the injury to his dantian.
He even sought out a heavenly-level alchemist and had him treated for a while, but to little avail.
After this, Meng Sheng gave up, left Yishui Pavilion, and disappeared.
I didn’t expect that he would appear in Xianlai Sect now!
"Everyone, I have also drunk a bowl of Xianlai Sect's medicinal soup. It contains only tonics, not a single poison. No matter who drinks it, it will be beneficial and harmless, and there is absolutely no possibility of poisoning."
Meng Sheng looked around and explained loudly, "This person brought a corpse here, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he threw dirty water on Xianlai Sect, insisting that it was related to Xianlai Sect's medicinal soup. I think other sects are jealous of Xianlai Sect's limelight and deliberately came here to throw dirty water. He deserves death."
If someone from the Xianlai Sect came to explain, the people present might not listen.
But Meng Sheng has a great reputation and is also a Earth-level alchemist, which makes him a person of considerable status.
If you say that he lied on behalf of the Xianlai Sect, no one would believe it.
Immediately, everyone looked at Zheng Shu and others angrily.
"Bah! They were sent by another sect to slander the Xianlai Sect. How shameless!"
"That's right, you can come up with such a despicable move!"
"Tell me quickly, who are you and who sent you here!"
"How can this be absurd? To throw mud at the Xianlai Sect like this, do you think you don't take our Ziye City seriously?"
Some citizens of Ziye City couldn't stand it anymore.
What's going on? Their city has finally produced a promising sect that may very well develop into a big one in the future. Why is it that someone is trying to sabotage it right after it starts recruiting disciples?
Shame on you!
Ever since the Xianlai Sect became famous, the citizens of Ziye City have tasted the sweetness, and everyone is proud of it. Naturally, they don't want to see the Xianlai Sect being discredited.
"You, you are all from the same group, so of course you speak for them!"
Zheng Shu's face changed and he panicked, but he still gritted his teeth and blamed Meng Sheng.
Meng Sheng sneered, "Although I have joined the Xianlai Sect, I will not lie about such things and destroy my reputation."
After saying this, without stopping, he waved his sleeves and returned to the mountain gate. Only his figure in white clothes slowly disappeared.
"Why don't you get out of here?" Liu Feng scolded coldly.
No matter how unwilling Zheng Shu was to accept it, he knew the situation was hopeless and that if he stayed he would only continue to be scolded, so he hurriedly collected the body and left with his men.
