As soon as we entered the Beast Taming Space, Xiao Yi happily pounced on us.
"Eee~"
She looked up at Lu Yuan, her large, bright green eyes blinking as if seeking praise.
See here.
Lu Yuan raised his hand and ruffled her hair, chuckling, "Little Yi did a fantastic job today, I'll give you a treat tonight!"
"Eee!"
Encouraged, Xiao Yi's eyes lit up instantly, and she happily hummed along.
"Where's Red Phosphorus? Is it still hiding in the bushes with its golden egg, just like before?"
Thinking of Chi Lin's strange behavior these past few days, Lu Yuan frowned and asked.
"Eee!"
Xiao Yi nodded, but her expression didn't show the same worry as Lu Yuan's.
Lu Yuan sighed softly.
never mind.
The child has grown up and will have his own ideas; let him be.
After figuring things out, Lu Yuan stopped worrying about the red phosphorus and the golden egg, and instead headed towards the medicinal herb field.
Just then, Chu Xing was sorting through the herbs she had just picked.
"Master, this batch yielded a total of 50 Strengthening Grass plants, 30 Dragon Snake Grass plants, and 20 Fire Pattern Fruit plants."
Looking at the three kinds of herbs arranged in front of him, Lu Yuan felt a headache coming on.
In the previous conversation, Wei Zheng clearly stated that the value of the medicinal liquid was greater than that of the herbs, and if possible, he hoped that Wei Zheng would directly provide the medicinal liquid to Lingyaotang.
At his current refining speed, he can only refine one bottle of medicine in an hour.
He estimated it would take 100 hours to extract all 100 herbs into a medicinal liquid.
Even with a training room that could cheat time, he still couldn't extract all the herbs into a medicinal liquid in one night.
"Let's refine 50 plants first, and sell the rest to the Spirit Medicine Hall as herbs!"
After making his plans, Lu Yuan divided each herb in half and brought them into the training room to begin refining them.
Having gained experience from refining the Body Strengthening Herb before, Lu Yuan's refining technique became much more skillful this time, and even his speed increased significantly.
Within a few hours, ten bottles of medicine were placed next to him.
"Looks like I can finish work early today."
Lu Yuan was pleasantly surprised, but his hands didn't stop working, and bottle after bottle of medicine was extracted.
I don't know how much time passed, but finally the last bottle of medicine was filled.
"call!"
Lu Yuan breathed a long sigh of relief.
Although the extraction of the medicine was not difficult, it was rather monotonous and tedious. After sitting for so long, his back was aching.
After standing up and moving his shoulders and limbs, Lu Yuan felt a little better.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Lu Yuan frowned.
"Someone has sneaked in?!"
Sensing the presence of a stranger, Lu Yuan immediately gripped his beast-taming blade and quietly withdrew from the beast-taming space.
It was already late at night, and most people were fast asleep. The surroundings were quiet, without a sound.
The room was pitch black, and Lu Yuan used the faint moonlight to sneak into a corner and hide.
Immediately afterwards, a faint clicking sound was heard, and the locked window was pried open. Three men in black jumped in one after another.
Lu Yuan held his breath and prepared to take the first city while the three were not paying attention.
Before he could make a move, the last man to enter suddenly turned around, clenched his fist, and threw a punch with terrifying force.
Lu Yuan reacted quickly and immediately rolled to the side.
boom!
With one punch, a large hole was smashed in the wall.
Lu Yuan was startled.
He had reinforced this room with an array, so it could withstand even two full-force attacks from a level-one Earth Spirit Beast Tamer, yet it shattered with a single blow?!
He didn't have time to think, and the next attack followed immediately.
"A Celestial-level Beast Tamer?!"
Sensing the fluctuations of spiritual energy emanating from the attacker, Lu Yuan dared not be careless. He barely dodged the attack by sidestepping and quickly pushed open the door and ran out.
Standing in the courtyard, Lu Yuan looked at the three men in black who had followed closely behind, his eyes narrowing.
"I never expected that three Celestial-level Beast Tamers would come. I wonder who the mastermind is, that they would be so generous!"
Hehehehe.
The leader of the men in black let out a harsh, monotonous laugh.
"Lu Yuan, don't you know who you've messed with?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan's expression changed slightly, and he quickly understood some key points.
He hadn't been in Yan for very long, and his only grudge was with the Divine Sea Beast Shop.
But the Divine Sea Beast Shop just sent people to cause trouble during the day, so it's impossible for them to send people to kill him again at night.
The only remaining possibility is the Grand Elder's side!
"It's that old bastard Yao Zheng!"
Lu Yuan immediately cursed angrily, but he was somewhat puzzled.
In the evening, he sent a message to Yao Zheng under the identity of Lu Zeyu. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with him. So why were assassins suddenly chasing after him?
"What's the problem?" The leader of the men in black sneered, pulling a medicine bottle from his pocket. "Everyone who swears allegiance to the Grand Elder will swallow this poison. They must take the antidote every seven days, or they will die!"
At this point, Lu Yuan immediately realized what was going on.
After all his scheming, he ultimately underestimated the bottom line of the Grand Elder's character!
To ensure his subordinates' complete loyalty, he even used poison to control them!
After figuring it out, Lu Yuan suddenly felt relieved.
Since things have already been exposed, we might as well just end it cleanly!
Thinking this, Lu Yuan waved his hands, and Xiao Yi and Chi Lin instantly appeared beside him.
One of the men in black opposite scoffed disdainfully at this.
"You callous brat, instead of obediently accepting your fate, you actually think about fighting back? You're simply overestimating yourself!"
The old man in black at the head of the group had a serious look in his eyes, looking straight past Lu Yuan and at what was behind him.
"Stop hiding, just come out!"
Upon hearing this...
Mu Ruxing, who had been hiding in the shadows from the beginning, slowly walked out and looked at the old man in black with the same serious expression.
“Young Master Lu, this old man’s strength is about the same as mine. If we start fighting later, I might not be able to fully protect you.”
After listening, Lu Yuan looked slightly surprised.
Although he could sense that the old man in black was very strong, he never expected that he could make Mu Ruxing, who had already reached the tenth level of the Heavenly Evolution Realm, wary.
It seems the Grand Elder has gone all out this time, determined to kill him!
The situation was particularly unfavorable, but Lu Yuan slightly curled the corners of his mouth.
"It's alright! You lure that old man away, and I'll take care of the other two!"
