Chapter 278
Because Muchen absorbed the soul fragments of the ninth-level alchemy, and found some alchemy books in the Miaodan Building, he had an epiphany in alchemy and needed to retreat to experience what he had just learned. Therefore, Ye Shi took the initiative to undertake the task of hurrying on and headed to the third stop, Yinyue Cave.
Outside the secret realm, Bai Chenxing saw that the person on the road was still Ye Shi, and he couldn't help but get angry.
"Mu Chen, does he think that I'm a young lady who never leaves the house? Leave all the errands to Yan Xing." Bai Chenxing said with displeasure.
Wu Feng smiled helplessly and said, "Mu Chen, he must have his reasons. Your son is on his way and he can find a spiritual vein by the way. How great!"
Bai Chenxing shook his sleeves and snorted coldly.
"Is Yanxing heading to Yinyue Cave?" Wu Feng muttered.
Bai Chenxing's face suddenly turned gloomy. No matter how powerful Mu Chen was, he was just one person. The Yinyue Cave had already been explored by Zhuang Jin and others. The Yinyue Cave also blocked Wu Zun's detection. It was unknown what Zhuang Jin and others had discovered inside.
Zhuang Jin's luck is really amazing. The people around him are making rapid progress. It won't be long before there will be five Martial Masters around him.
If the five people around Zhuang Jin all advance to the Martial Sect, Yan Xing will be in trouble.
Bai Chenxing looked at Ye Shi, who had no idea about the situation on Zhuang Jin's side and was only focused on hurrying on his way, and a sense of uneasiness flashed through his heart.
"Zhaocai, Zhaocai, have you found the spiritual vein?" The tower spirit waved its wings and asked excitedly.
"Don't add me to attract wealth." Ye Shi said viciously.
"You are the God of Wealth, and I will listen to you. Since you don't want to call for wealth, then this tower spirit will call for treasure." The tower spirit said flatteringly.
"Go to hell."
Ye Shi said viciously.
"I am such an innocent and lovely tower spirit, but you actually told me to die. You are so cruel! If you don't like this kind of fortune and treasure, then I will just call you a pretty boy." The tower spirit said in a flattering tone.
Ye Shi: “…”
"My Lord Pretty Boy, have you sensed the spiritual vein?" Tower Spirit asked relentlessly.
Ye Shi's face turned dark. "Little pretty boy", what a crappy title. "No." Ye Shi said viciously.
The tower spirit flapped its wings and said with regret: "How tragic! How could there be no spiritual vein?"
Ye Shi secretly curled his lips. Pendulums are not cabbages. You can just pick one easily. What is the tower spirit thinking?
"There is no spiritual vein! No spiritual vein, why is there no spiritual vein?" The tower spirit muttered in frustration.
Ye Shi's scalp tingled when he heard this, "Because there is no such thing, that's why there is no such thing." Mu Chen raised such a greedy tower spirit.
"My lord pretty boy, my master is an absolute pauper. Looking at the way he squanders his money, I guess he will never get rich. He has to rely on you, his good wife, to make him rich!" said Ta Ling.
Ye Shi's face flushed, and he suddenly felt a great sense of responsibility. "I understand."
"Sir, you are so sensible!" Tower Spirit said attentively.
·············
Ye Shi traveled for a whole day and arrived at the entrance of Yinyue Cave. Looking at the broken restrictions, Ye Shi felt a chill in his heart and felt as if his luck had run out.
"It seems that someone has been here before, and should have just arrived." Tower Spirit said.
The restrictions of the Tianji Secret Realm have an automatic repair function. If it was destroyed by the person who came in last time, it should have been repaired long ago after so much time.
Ye Shi pursed his lips, and the ominous premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger.
"Mr. Bai, you are here." A beautiful girl walked up to Ye Shi tremblingly.
Ye Shi looked at the girl and frowned, "Who are you?"
"My name is Yun Ruoyi, and I'm from the Yun family. My ancestor had a good relationship with your father." Yun Ruoyi said in a trembling voice.
"Has anyone been to this secret realm just now?" Ye Shi asked.
Yun Ruoyi nodded uneasily and said, "Yes."
"Is the person coming Zhuang Jin?" Ye Shi's eyes suddenly became sharp.
Yun Ruoyi looked at Ye Shi's extremely ugly expression and nodded reluctantly, saying, "Yes, the people who came are Zhuang Jin and his five companions."
Ye Shi closed his eyes, and couldn't help but feel an indescribable irritation in his heart. It was like this again. In the past, Zhuang Yu would make things difficult for him whether there was something wrong or not, but now the person who made things difficult for him has become Zhuang Jin. These two brothers are both bitches, and they both only cause trouble for him. What sin has he committed?
It would be better if Zhuang Jin died too instead of having to keep entangled with these two people.
Ye Shi looked at Yun Ruoyi and asked in confusion, "Are you afraid of me? Why are you so afraid of me?"
Yun Ruoyi stretched out her hand tremblingly and handed over a jade pendant.
"This was given to you by Murong Yurang, who is by Zhuang Jin's side." Yun Ruoyi said in panic and fear.
Ye Shi took the jade pendant and looked at it, his expression changed drastically.
The recipe for the anti-spiritual elixir written on the jade pendant has been handed over to Zhuang Jin. If Ye Shi wants this recipe, he can ask Mu Chen to go to the Luoyue Palace in the secret realm to exchange it for the Spirit Tower in twenty days.
"This bitch Zhuang Jin is crazy." Ye Shi said, pinching the jade pendant in his hand fiercely.
In exchange for the Spirit Pagoda, Zhuang Jin, that little bitch, is really asking for too much. What is a Spirit Pagoda? How can the recipe for the Anti-Spirit Pill compare to a Spirit Pagoda?
The tower spirit flapped its wings and thought secretly: Zhuang Jin, this pretty boy, is really nostalgic!
"Is Mu Chen here?" Yun Ruoyi asked.
Ye Shi looked at Yun Ruoyi and asked unkindly, "What do you want from Mu Chen?"
Yun Ruoyi said in a trembling voice, "The people around Zhuang Jin placed a restriction on me, saying that only Muchen can remove it, and asked me to wait here for you."
Ye Shi frowned and said, "Why did Mu Chen want to lift the ban on you?" This damn girl is helping Zhuang Jin.
Yun Ruoyi grabbed Ye Shi's sleeve in panic and said, "Mr. Bai, please help me, considering the good relationship between the Yun and Bai families. I will die if I can't break the restriction. I have nothing to do with Zhuang Jin and the others. I was just unlucky and was caught by them."
Ye Shi frowned, feeling complicated. On one side were his mother and father, and on the other side was Mu Chen. Even if his mother and father got the recipe for the anti-spiritual pill, they might not wake up. Mu Chen would most likely die if he lost the spirit tower.
The people on Zhuang Jin's side might not want the spirit tower, they want to take revenge on me and alienate me from Muchen.
Yun Ruoyi looked at Ye Shi's ugly face, stood aside uneasily, with a bitter look on her face.
Yun Ruoyi had already read the contents of the jade pendant. Giving such a jade pendant to Mu Chen made her feel like she was simply courting death. However, she had to rely on such a thing that was likely to provoke Mu Chen and Ye Shi to go to Mu Chen for help.
If I give her another chance, she would never come to this damn place even if you kill her.
Ye Shi held the jade pendant, not knowing whether to tell Mu Chen what was inside. He felt confused and had a terrible headache.
Mu Chen walked out of the spirit tower. Ye Shi was stunned when he saw Mu Chen suddenly appear.
Mu Chen stretched out his hand and said, "What is it? Let me see it."
Ye Shi lowered his head, holding the jade pendant without reaching out, his face full of struggle and entanglement.
Mu Chen frowned. At first, Ye Shi was a little willful, but in recent years, Ye Shi has always been obedient to him.
Mu Chen stretched out his hand and forcibly took the jade pendant from Ye Shi's hand. Ye Shi bit his lip and looked at Mu Chen with some uneasiness.
Ye Shi frowned and muttered, "Mu Chen, Zhuang Jin he..."
Mu Chen smiled and said, "It's okay. Things will work out in time. We agreed to do it in twenty days. Take your time. Don't worry too much. Although the formula for the Anti-Spiritual Pill in Yinyue Cave was taken away by Zhuang Jin, there might be other places where you can find it. Take your time."
If it really doesn't work, he will find an opportunity to kill a few people from Zhuang Jin's side. Maybe that thing is in that person's space ring. Anyway, he had such a plan.
If not, then he could only apologize to his two fathers-in-law. There was no way he would hand over the spirit tower. If he did, the people around Zhuang Jin would be sending him to death.
Ye Shi nodded and said uneasily, "Okay, Muchen, why did he ask for the date in twenty days?"
"Because he's not sure." Mu Chen said without hesitation.
"Not sure?" Ye Shi asked in confusion.
Mu Chen nodded and said, "Yes, if I'm not mistaken, twenty days is enough for everyone around Zhuang Jin to advance to the Martial Sect."
When Ye Shi heard Mu Chen's words, his heartstrings suddenly tightened.
·············
Outside the room, Bai Chenxing saw the conversation between Ye Shi and Muchen, and his face turned very ugly.
He had always been curious about what Zhuang Jin and others found in the Yinyue Cave. As a result, they actually got the recipe for the Anti-Spirit Pill.
The Fate Clan must have done it on purpose. He had not hidden his previous trip to Danta to seek help from the Fate Clan.
First it was Zhuang Yu, and now it’s Zhuang Jin, all of them are so despicable.
Wu Feng pursed her lips and said nothing. She asked Mu Chen to use the Spirit Tower in exchange for the recipe of the Anti-Spirit Pill. Zhuang Jin was really cruel.
Zhuang Jin's move may not be likely to allow him to obtain the Spirit Tower, but it can create a rift between Muchen and Ye Shi. Once a cultivator has a deep rift in his heart, he will lose the possibility of becoming a Martial Master.
Zhuang Jin looks weak, but this move is really ruthless.
············
"Mr. Mu." In the secret realm, Yun Ruoyi called out to Mu Chen with some uneasiness.
Mu Chen glanced at Yun Ruoyi for a few seconds, then calmly waved his hand and released Yun Ruoyi's restraints. "You can go now. The restraints in your body have been lifted."
Yun Ruoyi nodded quickly and said happily, "Thank you, Mr. Mu."
Ye Shi looked at Yun Ruoyi's back and said sourly, "You are so nice to this girl."
"It's just a piece of cake, and it's none of her business anyway." Mu Chen smiled indifferently.
Ye Shi took a deep breath. He knew that Yun Ruoyi was innocent, but he still felt a little resentful when the other party told him such bad news.
Mu Chen looked at Ye Shi and said, "More friends, more paths."
A sneer crossed Muchen's face. The restriction within Yun Ruoyi's body was extremely unique. If his control was even slightly weaker and he failed to save her, Yun Ruoyi would be blown to ash in an instant. If that happened, the Yun family patriarch would immediately think that Muchen was venting his anger on Yun Ruoyi.
There are always some old monsters watching this place. The people around Zhuang Jin did such a thing to Yun Ruoyi. The ancestor of the Yun family might bear a grudge against Zhuang Jin. If he did not help the person in need, the ancestor of the Yun family would also be wary of him. Although it is said that more debts are better than less, and he does not mind having one more opponent, there is no need for him to do anything to anger the gods and the people.
Outside the secret realm, Wu Feng looked at Muchen in the secret realm with a bitter smile on his face. He really didn't expect that Muchen would actually come to the rescue. Having been accustomed to Muchen's cruel and ruthless methods, Wu Feng felt something was strange when he saw Muchen suddenly become generous.
Several cultivators from the Yun family smiled gratefully at Bai Chenxing from afar.
Bai Chenxing put his hands behind his back and ignored the Yun family.
············
Mu Chen and Ye Shi were talking when they suddenly saw thunderclouds gathering in the distance.
Ye Shi looked at the gathering thunderclouds, feeling uneasy, "Mu Chen, is there..."
Mu Chen clenched his fists. He also felt that he was from Zhuang Jin's side. No one else could have the same luck as Zhuang Jin.
"It's nothing to have one more Wu Zong." Mu Chen said lightly.
"What if all five of them become Wuzong?" Ye Shi frowned.
The reason why Muchen was able to successfully repel the people on Zhuang Jin's side last time was because three of Zhuang Jin's mistresses were Martial Emperors. If at that time, the people around Zhuang Jin were all Martial Emperors, then Muchen...
"The people around Zhuang Jin will be promoted, so am I the only one who will remain stagnant?" Mu Chen said with a gloomy face.
"That's right." He also muttered, obviously lacking in confidence.
"Don't worry, I will protect you." Mu Chen said to Ye Shi.
"I know?" Ye Shi said with a faint smile.
"People have advanced."
Mu Chen nodded and said, "I see."
Ye Shi frowned, "I think it's someone from Zhuang Jin's side."
