Just as the bespectacled doctor had said, they had already discovered the faintly discernible poisonous gas in their bodies. This horrifying discovery was enough to completely extinguish their little bit of joy. Even if they were beaten to death, they would never have thought that after they had already found an appraiser and the result was that there was clearly no poisonous substance in their bodies, there would be such a terrifying and troublesome poisonous gas left behind after eating it!
Little did they know that this was a method that was integrated with the top technology of the secular world. It would be a miracle if it could be identified by the conventional appraisal methods of the Ancient Jianghu.
"What do you want?" Chen Dongcheng and Lu Pingan were a little panicked. Their strength had skyrocketed, but the price they had to pay was poisonous gas in their bodies. This was equivalent to selling themselves alive. No matter who it was, they would not be happy. They would only panic.
"Nothing much. Don't worry. Although the poisonous gas can't be eliminated, it won't break out in a short time. Even if it takes a long time, as long as you take the antidote regularly, it can be effectively suppressed. There won't be any problems." The bespectacled doctor said lightly.
The two looked at each other. These words did not make them feel much more at ease. Instead, they became more frightened. The more stable the poison was, the more firmly the other party controlled it. What did this mysterious man want?
"Still worried?" The bespectacled doctor looked at the two's expressions and smiled. He comforted them, "My purpose has been stated from the beginning. We have a common enemy, so I need you two to join our organization. As for the strength of our organization, I believe there is no need to say more. You two should have a deep understanding of it. As long as you two cooperate well, I can help you become Yuanying Stage old monsters in a very short time!"
Chen Dongcheng and Lu Pingan had subconsciously regarded these words as a fantasy before, but now it was different. With the previous medicinal pills as a foundation, they could be said to believe it without a doubt!
On one hand, there was the temptation of a Yuanying Stage old monster, and on the other hand, there was the threat of inexplicable poisonous gas. In the face of this carrot and stick, normal people would not have a second choice.
"Okay, I'll join!" Chen Dongcheng was the first to make a decision.
"I'll join too!" Lu Pingan was not willing to be left behind.
"Very good. With the help of the two of you, it will be even more convenient for us to do things in the Primordial Underworld in the future. It's like adding wings to a tiger. Congratulations!" The mysterious person was overjoyed when he heard this.
Although these two people's surrender was completely within his expectation, it still made him very happy. After all, if the center really wanted to gain a foothold in the small Jianghu of the Primordial Era, it had to rely heavily on the local natives. These two people were the top executives of the Green Cloud Sect of the North Island. Whether it was experience, connections or influence, they were far from being comparable to ordinary people. Even if they had escaped from the Green Cloud Sect of the North Island, they were still very useful.
"I will do my utmost and dedicate my life to you!" Both of them were shrewd people. Since they had already reached this step, they naturally adjusted their mentality extremely quickly, making it impeccable. However, only they themselves knew what kind of thoughts they had in their hearts.
"Good. The two of you have just broken through, so you need to cultivate and stabilize your realm. After a while, I believe there will be good news," the bespectacled doctor said with a profound smile.
"What good news?" Chen Dongcheng and Lu Pingan looked at each other curiously.
"You'll know when the time comes." When saying this, the bespectacled doctor's eyes fell on Chen Jiu, who was unconscious. For him, the joining of Chen Dongcheng and Lu Pingan was not the biggest gain. The biggest gain was the Supreme Elder of the Green Cloud Sect of the North Island. The key to mass producing Nascent Soul Old Monsters in the future would fall on this guy.
Three months passed in a flash. Snow Sword School of the Middle Island.
For Xu Xiaodong, this was a special day, because her most valued pro-disciple, Leng Leng, had come out of seclusion. After a few months of seclusion cultivation, Leng Leng successfully crossed the barrier between the Foundation Establishment Stage and the Gold Core Stage. Now she was a real master in the Early-stage of the Gold Core Stage!
As a master, Xu Xiaodong herself was only in the Early-stage of the Gold Core Stage. Now she was actually caught up by her own disciple. According to the rules of the sect, they would be on equal footing in the future. This kind of thing would inevitably be a little awkward for others, but not for Xu Xiaodong. Instead, she felt very proud!
It had only been a mere one and a half year's time, but Leng Leng had soared from an Early-stage Foundation Establishment Realm disciple to the Early-stage Gold Core Realm expert today. Even though such an amazing performance could not be compared to Xue Jianfeng, who had a cheat code, it was still considered as shocking. No matter who taught such a disciple, he or she would be extremely proud.
Not only that, with Leng Leng's heaven-defying aptitude and the various elixirs given by Lin Yi, after crossing the huge barrier of the Gold Core Stage, it was completely possible for her to return to the previous heaven-defying state of rapid breakthrough. It would take dozens or hundreds of years for others to go from the Early-stage of the Gold Core Stage to the Great Perfection of the Gold Core Stage, but for Leng Leng, even if she did not use the improved version of the elixirs with great side effects, it would not take that long.
Perhaps in a few years, the Snow Sword School would have another Great Perfection of the Gold Core Stage.
However, before the master and disciple could have a few words, a familiar yet disgusting voice cut in. It was Xue Jianfeng.
"Yo, you've finally come out of isolation. It looks like you're already in the Gold Core Stage. How rare," Xue Jianfeng walked towards the two with an evil smile on his face. It was obvious that he did not come with good intentions.
Leng Leng and her master, Xu Xiaodong, looked at each other and could not help but feel a little surprised. Ever since this fellow's legs were destroyed by Bing Wuqing in public, not long after that, his father, Xue Liping, sent him out to seek medical treatment. There was no news of him for a few months. They did not expect him to appear again today.
There was something strange about this matter from the beginning. Logically speaking, with the injuries on his legs, the doctors in the Snow Sword School might be able to cure him. Even if they did not have the ability, they could at least give it a try. There was no need for him to go out to seek medical treatment, let alone stay out for a few months.
Seeing that Leng Leng and Xu Xiaodong did not speak, Xue Jianfeng did not mind. He walked closer and reached out his hand to touch Leng Leng's cheek. He continued with an evil smile, "Tsk tsk, I haven't seen you for a few months. Junior Sister, you've become more and more attractive. I can't help but feel sorry for you. Initially, I wanted to continue to pursue your past deeds, but I've changed my mind now. As long as you repent and mend your ways, I can let bygones be bygones. How about that?"
"Repent and mend my ways?" Leng Leng took a step back and avoided his lecherous hand. She had already advanced into the Gold Core Stage. Even if she was only in the early stage of the Gold Core Stage, she was at least at the same level as the other party. She would definitely not be able to defeat him, but she would not be helpless to the extent that she could only wait for death.
