"Miss Yanran, I have to refine some pills. On one hand, I have to heal Senior Lan. On the other hand, I have to prepare enough medicinal liquid for Cold Plum to soak in. I'll have to trouble you to take care of her for the time being."
"Don't worry, this is just a small matter. Let her stay at my place from now on. There will be someone to accompany her every day, so there won't be any problems."
"Thank you!"
After taking a deep breath, Ling Xiao selected some herbs from the Mountain River Realm and began refining them.
The Heaven Vein Repair Pill was actually very easy to refine.
It took a little more time to prepare the medicinal liquid, but it only took half an hour.
He first helped Lan Yu 'er repair her Heaven Vein, then instructed them to take turns taking care of Cold Plum. He then headed to the Sky Dragon Auction House.
Of course, other than buying the necessary herbs, he also wanted to inquire about another matter at the auction house.
On the way, he heard all the discussions about Sun Shang's death.
Although the Phoenix Academy tried their best to hide this matter and suppress the storm, they forgot one thing.
If they could plant people in Qingxu College, Qingxu College could naturally plant people there as well.
Paper couldn't contain fire. Naturally, this matter quickly spread throughout the streets and alleys.
Although many people didn't believe it, the storyteller described the entire process vividly. Moreover, Sun Shang didn't show up, so naturally, most people gradually believed it to be the truth.
The Phoenix Academy was also in a state of panic. Everyone was in danger.
After hearing this and seeing this, Ling Xiao couldn't help but think of a phrase — "You only have yourself to blame."
Originally, he didn't want to use the pills to trick the Phoenix Academy. Who knew that they would make the first move, resulting in today's situation?
The Phoenix Academy couldn't even take care of itself. The disciples were trembling when they went out, so they didn't have the time to bother the Qingxu College disciples.
In the end, the Qingxu College, which had fewer people, occupied nearly 80% of the cultivation rooms in the Heaven Essence Pagoda. This was considered a gain.
However, Ling Xiao didn't forget to eliminate the source of trouble.
Yun Ya was still as coquettish and charming as usual. She was still chatting and laughing as usual. However, in front of Ling Xiao, she was obviously a little afraid.
"You seem to be very afraid of me?"
Ling Xiao asked curiously.
"If this servant speaks the truth, young master, please don't blame me."
Yun Ya smiled and said.
"Speak."
"That Heavenly Venerable Miraculous Hand Sun Shang was killed by the person behind Young Master, right?"
Yun Ya lowered her voice and asked.
"It's better not to ask about things that you shouldn't ask. Princess Yun Ya, in fact, even if Sun Shang was killed by me or the person behind me, you don't have to be afraid. You didn't offend me."
Ling Xiao said with a smile.
"Haha, you're right. Yun Ya is thinking too much."
In fact, she didn't think too much about it. She was mainly afraid that there would be some blind people in the Heavenly Dragon Auction House who would go against Ling Xiao and implicate the auction house. That would be bad.
What happened this time was the best example.
On the surface, Ling Xiao looked like a warrior in the Celestial Realm. However, no one knew how deep the water was behind him.
No one would be able to guess it.
"Princess Yun Ya, don't think too much. You and I are friends. Even if there are some misunderstandings, we can sit down and talk about it."
Ling Xiao's words set Yun Ya's mind at ease.
"Friends? Yes, we are indeed friends. I wonder if young master came to the auction house today for anything other than to buy medicinal herbs?"
Yun Ya asked with a smile.
Ling Xiao's friend seemed to be very respected.
Speaking of which, didn't he kill Ximen Bumie and Li Chengxiu on the street for the sake of friends?
"Princess Yun Ya is really smart. I want to ask you about something."
Ling Xiao said, "I heard that Fengming Wanchong personally went out to look for medicinal herbs for the Phoenix Academy. Is this true?"
"This is absolutely true. In Wan City, which is five hundred miles away from the imperial city, there is also a large trading company that sells medicinal herbs. However, the price is quite expensive. This time, in order to maintain the sales of the Crisis Reversal Pill and avoid losing too much, the Phoenix Academy specially bought these medicinal herbs at three times the price. "
Yun Ya nodded and said.
"Haha, isn't this called losing the bait and losing the soldiers? Now that Sun Shang is dead, what can they do with these medicinal herbs? At most, they can refine the Crisis Reversal Pill. They are no longer a threat to us. "
Ling Xiao said with a smile.
"Young master, you are wrong."
Yun Ya shook her head and said.
"Wrong?"
Ling Xiao was stunned for a moment and asked, "Could it be that other than Sun Shang, there are other high-grade yellow-level alchemists on the Divine Phoenix Continent?"
"There aren't any on the Divine Phoenix Continent, but there are on the Five Immortal Island and the White Tiger Continent. I wonder if young master has heard of the 'Righteous Alliance'?"
Yun Ya asked.
"Righteous Alliance? Yes, I have heard of it. It is rumored that it is an organization on the Divine Phoenix Continent that 'upholds justice on behalf of the heavens and promotes righteousness'. It has done many good deeds, but in recent years, it seems to have become a little overbearing. "
Ling Xiao nodded and said, "Young master, you are right.
In the past, the Righteous Alliance was indeed an organization that promoted righteousness and upholds justice on behalf of the heavens. It has saved many people and done many good deeds, but in recent years, it has become a very overbearing organization. It often does things like pointing a deer as a horse, helping a tiger do evil, and distorting the truth. "
Yun Ya sighed and said, "What I want to say is that the Phoenix Academy seems to be in contact with the Righteous Alliance, and there should be high-grade yellow-level alchemists in the Righteous Alliance."
"There is such a thing!"
Hearing this, Ling Xiao couldn't help but frown. Was there no end to this?
"Princess Yun Ya, do you know the route that Phoenix Cry uses to transport medicinal herbs? I am not very familiar with the Divine Phoenix Continent."
He suddenly asked.
"Ah? Young Master, you can't be thinking of … "
Yun Ya didn't finish her sentence, but she was truly shocked. Just how terrifying was the expert behind Ling Xiao? After killing Celestial Sovereign Miraculous Hands, he actually wanted to kill Phoenix Cry Wanchong?
"That's right, I want to sever the Phoenix Academy's hopes. If Phoenix Cry Wanchong dies, the medicinal herb channel will be cut off. I want to see what they have to fight with us!"
Ling Xiao coldly said.
Yun Ya couldn't help but sigh with sorrow. "I say, Divine Phoenix Academy has provoked you. It's really as if they've provoked a demon king. First, the medicinal pill market was robbed, then Heavenly Sovereign Miraculous Hands was killed. If even Phoenix Cry Wanchong dies after this, Divine Phoenix Academy will really have to tuck its tail between its legs."
"Is Princess willing to help?"
Ling Xiao asked with a smile.
Yun Ya sighed and then left the VIP room. After she went out, she came back with a map. On the map was clearly marked a route to Wancheng, as well as a route that caravans had to take.
"This time, perhaps because Phoenix Cry Wanchong is overseeing things, the Phoenix Academy swallowed a total of one billion low-grade spirit stones worth of medicinal herbs in one fell swoop. According to the time, they should already be halfway there. Because the space in a storage ring is limited, it is impossible to store so many things. There will definitely be caravans, and it will be very easy to find them."
