This place was already very close to the Imperial City. Phoenix Cry Wanchong did not expect to encounter an assassination attempt here.
By the time he reacted, only he and the two Grotto-Heaven Realm martial artists were left in good condition. The rest were either injured or dead.
The other party acted very quickly and did not deliberately take their lives. They only crippled those people's combat power, so they saved a lot of time.
"Who are you? Don't you know that this is the Phoenix Academy's convoy? You have to pay the price for harming my Phoenix Academy's people!"
Phoenix Cry Wanchong felt the other party's powerful aura, so he did not immediately attack. He only questioned angrily.
The black-clothed man did not speak nonsense and attacked again. His target was the two Grotto-Heaven Realm martial artists.
Assassins never spoke nonsense.
A person who spoke nonsense could not be an assassin.
"Bastard!"
How could Phoenix Cry Wanchong not be angry when he saw this?
"You two, protect the herbs. I'll kill this guy and go to the Imperial City to get reinforcements!"
This person was originally an impulsive person. In the face of an assassin's provocation, he would definitely not be able to hold back.
After he finished speaking, he rushed out.
The assassin revealed a smile under his mask.
After successfully luring the enemy, he turned and leaped into the distance.
"Where do you think you're going?"
Phoenix Cry Wanchong roared and chased after him.
"Hmph, no matter who you are, you will definitely die if you provoke our Vice President!"
The two Grotto-Heaven Realm martial artists were a little angry, but at the same time, they were very glad.
Being able to escort the herbs with Phoenix Cry Wanchong, the two of them would not be killed. Otherwise, with the assassin's strength, it would be very easy to kill them.
However, before they could finish rejoicing, they suddenly saw a person quickly approaching.
Could it be that the black-clothed man had returned?
No! It's him! It's that ghost mask!
Ling Xiao, who was wearing a ghost mask, came close. He then gently lifted the mask and smiled at the two people.
"Thank you for your hard work. I will take these herbs!"
Ling Xiao's storage ring wasn't particularly large, so it couldn't store so many things. However, his Mountain River World wasn't a problem at all. Purely in terms of space, his Mountain River World had unlimited space.
After he finished speaking, he waved his hand and the herbs rushed into the Mountain River World.
"It's Ling Xiao from Qingxu College!"
"This brat is courting death. Kill him!"
When the two Grotto Heaven realm experts saw this, they didn't think too much about it. After all, the herbs they were guarding were about to be taken away. How could they have the leisure to think about anything else?
The two of them attacked Ling Xiao from the left and right, using their respective Void Arts to attack him.
However, in the face of their attacks, Ling Xiao acted as if he didn't see them at all and continued to collect those medicinal herbs at a leisurely pace.
In midair, the two of them suddenly had a very bad feeling.
But he couldn't tell why.
"Die!"
Amidst the chaos, the two of them did not stop attacking. They continued to attack Ling Xiao together.
"Damn it, it's you!"
A smile suddenly appeared on Ling Xiao's face.
Two rainbow-colored beams of light shot through the heads of the two Grotto-Heaven realm martial artists.
In order to save trouble, Ling Xiao simply acted as bait and let the butterfly lady launch a sneak attack. Naturally, it was twice the result with half the effort.
When the two corpses fell to the ground, Ling Xiao ejected a Crimson Sun Awl from his hand and pierced through the two corpses.
The two corpses quickly burned. A moment later, only two storage rings were left on the ground.
There was nothing else in the storage rings. They were all medicinal herbs.
Ling Xiao naturally took them all.
These medicinal herbs were relatively cheap. The advantage was that there were enough of them. In the future, when he used them to make Spirit Pill of Heaven Reversal, he wouldn't have to look for them everywhere.
"Next, it's time for Phoenix Cry Wanchong!"
Looking at the battle in the distance, Ling Xiao revealed a sinister smile.
…
Bang!
In the Phoenix Academy, a person covered in blood fell from midair.
It attracted countless people to watch.
"Oh my god, it's the vice president of Phoenix Cry Wanchong!"
"How did this happen? How did he get injured like this?"
Phoenix Cry Wanchong was sent to the treatment room, and the pharmacists started the emergency treatment.
Phoenix Cry Wanchong, who was awakened by the pain, grabbed Sikong Zun, who was standing beside him, and shouted in an extremely weak voice, "Damn it! All the medicinal herbs are destroyed. I'm also seriously injured and almost lost my life! "
"Do you know who did it?"
Sikong Zun asked in shock.
If it was a martial artist in the Grotto-Heaven Realm who was ambushed halfway, it wouldn't be a big deal.
However, a Yin-Yang Realm expert was in such a miserable state. He couldn't help but be surprised.
"It must be Qingxu College. It must be those bastards!"
Phoenix Cry Wanchong didn't have any evidence, so he could only shout hysterically.
Sikong Zun sighed. He also knew that Qingxu College must have done all this. Even Qingxu College had killed Sun Shang.
However, there was no evidence. Everything was fabricated.
More importantly, they didn't have the strength to crush Qingxu College. This was the most important thing.
"Brother Wanchong, you should rest and recover first. Leave the rest to me and the Dean."
Sikong Zun patted Phoenix Cry Wanchong's shoulder lightly and walked out of the treatment room.
According to the pharmacists, Phoenix Cry Wanchong was severely injured this time. It would take at least a year for him to recover.
This meant that the opponent was very strong.
At the very least, they were as strong as Phoenix Cry Wanchong.
After experiencing Sun Shang's death, Phoenix Cry Wanchong's injuries, and the theft of his medicinal herbs, Sikong Zun started to feel fear.
Who could be so strong?
Could it be outside help that Qingxu College found?
He didn't know.
However, after experiencing all this, the Phoenix Academy had suffered a heavy blow.
Could it be that they had no choice but to cooperate with the Righteous Alliance?
Sikong Zun sighed.
Although the pill market wasn't the Phoenix Academy's only source of income, losing the pill market meant that the Phoenix Academy's biggest source of income was cut off.
Moreover, they had lost one billion low-grade spirit stones this time.
This was definitely a heavy blow to the Phoenix Academy.
Sitting alone in the conference room, Sikong Zun started to regret listening to Sun Shang's words and using that nonsensical pill war tactic.
Although they had achieved good results in the beginning, they had now forced themselves into a dead end.
Unfortunately, it was too late for regrets now.
If he wanted to save the Phoenix Academy, he could only seek help from the God Emperor and the Righteous Alliance.
Thinking of this, he stood up and disappeared from the meeting hall in a flash.
Ling Xiao had already returned to Qingxu College. He used the five sets of medicinal herbs to refine four Heaven Breaking Pills.
Although the success rate was less than one hundred percent, it was still very high.
He kept three of them for himself.
The butterfly lady didn't need these pills. As long as she continued to grow, her strength would soar, and she would be even faster than Ling Xiao.
However, he and the people around him would definitely need them.
As for the remaining pill, he naturally went to the auction house.
