The Herb King Summit was the only summit in the Formless Blade Sect that was not named after the word 'sword', and it was also where Yan Qianyin lived. It was said that the Herb King Summit was once filled with spiritual herbs, but it eventually became like the other summits, with only a few planted spiritual herbs.
Just as Mo Wuji arrived at the foot of the Herb King Summit, he was stopped by a female ingredient girl who was not even 20 years old.
"Hello junior apprentice sister, I am Lotus Sword Summit's Mo Wuji. I have specially come to see senior apprentice sister Yan, please help me inform her of my arrival." Mo Wuji knew that in the entire Formless Blade Sect, besides his Lotus Sword Summit, all the other summits had defences. It was not because he did not want to, but because he did not have the ability to.
"So it's Lotus Sword Summit's senior apprentice brother Mo. Before Pill Master Yan left, she told me that senior apprentice brother Mo can come in directly. If you want to take sister Yan 'Er away, you can do so as well. "The ingredient girl hurriedly bowed.
Mo Wuji felt a little disappointed, and hurriedly asked, "Senior apprentice sister Yan is not here?"
Other than bringing Yan 'Er back, he also wanted to ask senior apprentice sister Yan about the Lotus Sword Summit. Of course, his goal was the Treasured Blood Lotus.
"Senior apprentice sister Yan was invited to participate in the pill refiner exchange. Senior apprentice brother Mo, please follow me to the guest room." The ingredient girl said politely.
Since Yan Qianyin was not at the Herb King Summit, Mo Wuji did not have the mood to waste any more time. He immediately said, "Thank you junior apprentice sister. When senior apprentice sister Yan returns, I will come and visit again. I would like to take Yan 'Er away. "
"Of course. Senior apprentice brother Mo, please wait for a moment." The ingredient girl clearly received Yan Qianyin's instructions, and hurriedly went in.
Mo Wuji only waited for a few minutes before the ingredient girl brought Yan 'Er and Xiong Xiuzhu back. At the same time, the ingredient girl was carrying a huge bag on her back.
"This was what senior apprentice sister Yan left for senior apprentice brother Mo before she left." The ingredient girl passed the bag to Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji did not need to open it to smell the medicinal fragrance inside. He guessed that this should be the Tier 3 spiritual herbs that Yan Qianyin promised him.
Now that he could no longer open his meridians, these spiritual herbs were very timely for Mo Wuji. Since he could not cultivate, he could make use of these spiritual herbs to raise his pill refining standards. This made Mo Wuji feel even more grateful towards Yan Qianyin.
In reality, even if he didn't give Yan Qianyin his Revolving Star Passage Technique, he wouldn't be able to keep it. In other words, it was Yan Qianyin who helped him block the Formless Blade Sect's accusation, which was a bigger favour to him. Even so, she still kept her promise and gave him a batch of third grade spiritual herbs.
…
After returning to the Lotus Sword Summit, Mo Wuji did not even have the time to open the bag of spiritual herbs that Yan Qianyin gave him, as he hurried towards the sect's Scripture Depository.
Mo Wuji wasn't here to look at cultivation techniques and cultivation methods. His Immortal Mortal Technique was sufficient for him to cultivate. As for magic skills, he wasn't qualified to look at them, nor did he need to. Apart from the Revolving Star Passage Technique, he still had the Shapeless Sword Inheritance that he had yet to unlock.
His main purpose was to find out more about the Lotus Sword Peak. He wanted to concoct an upgraded version of the Channel Opening Solution. He had obtained all the other spirit herbs except for the Treasured Blood Lotus. In the Formless Blade Sect, Guan Li was the person who nurtured the Treasured Blood Lotus. Naturally, Mo Wuji hoped to find out more about the Treasured Blood Lotus or Guan Li from the sect's records.
What disappointed Mo Wuji was that after spending an entire day looking through countless of the sect's records, he only found out that Elder Guan Li lived in the Formless Blade Sect's Lotus Sword Summit. There was nothing else.
Mo Wuji did not give up, and decided to ask Fei Bingzhu. Fei Bingzhu had been in the Formless Blade Sect longer than him, so he should have some understanding of the Lotus Sword Summit.
Once again, Mo Wuji arrived at the Formless Blade Sect's Hall of Affairs. A few service disciples who recognised Mo Wuji hurriedly stopped and bowed to pay their respects. Even some of the outer disciples also hurriedly stopped to pay their respects.
A guest pill refiner still had a certain status in the sect.
Arriving at the spiritual herb dispensary, Mo Wuji discovered that Fei Bingzhu had disappeared. Replacing him was a disciple that he had never seen before.
"Pill Master Mo …" This disciple clearly recognised Mo Wuji. Seeing Mo Wuji walk over, he hurriedly bowed to pay his respects.
Mo Wuji asked curiously, "May I ask why Fei Bingzhu isn't here? Did he go somewhere else?"
When this disciple heard Mo Wuji ask about Fei Bingzhu, he immediately stuttered, and did not say anything for a long time.
Mo Wuji's face darkened, and his tone turned cold, "Where did Fei Bingzhu go? My patience is limited. "
Seeing Mo Wuji's anger, this disciple instantly panicked, and hurriedly replied, "Pill Master Mo please calm down. When I arrived, senior apprentice brother Fei had already left. I heard that senior apprentice brother Fei was killed by Pill Master Ju because of a mistake …"
"It's that Ju fella again …" Mo Wuji was infuriated. If his previous conflict with Pill Master Ju was just a small one, now that Fei Bingzhu was killed, it was no longer a small one.
It was just that regardless of his current cultivation level, or his pill refining skills, he was unable to find Pill Master Ju to take revenge for Fei Bingzhu.
Mo Wuji did not continue speaking nonsense. There was no need to get angry with a mere dispensing disciple.
"Pill Master Mo, please wait …" Just as Mo Wuji stepped out of the Hall of Affairs, a soft voice called out to him.
Mo Wuji turned to see a youth about the same age as Fei Bingzhu. Looking at his clothes, he should be an outer disciple.
"You are?" Mo Wuji looked suspiciously at the disciple who called out to him.
The outer disciple hurriedly said, "I'm an outer disciple, Wu Rongzhi. When junior apprentice brother Fei was taken away, he asked me to look for you. At that time, you weren't at the Lotus Sword Summit. Junior apprentice brother Fei wasn't taken away because of a mistake, but because he spoke up for you. "
"What exactly happened?" Mo Wuji's face turned cold. If Fei Bingzhu was implicated by him and was killed by that Ju fella, then even if he could not take revenge for Fei Bingzhu now, he would definitely find that Ju fella in the future.
Wu Rongzhi hurriedly said, "That day, someone in the Hall of Affairs said that Pill Master Ju was about to advance to become an Earth Pill Refiner, and would be the most talented pill refiner in the Formless Blade Sect after Pill Master Yan. This was originally nothing much, but that person took the initiative to talk about you, Pill Master Mo. He said that Pill Master Ju relied on his own abilities, and that you managed to curry favor with Pill Master Yan. Otherwise, not to mention staying at the Lotus Sword Summit, you wouldn't even be fit to carry Pill Master Ju's shoes. "
Junior apprentice brother Fei interrupted. He said that Pill Master Ju was indeed a genius pill refiner in the sect. However, the reason why Pill Master Mo could succeed was not because of Pill Master Yan, but because Pill Master Mo's talent in pill refining was outstanding. He even said that Pill Master Mo was only a service disciple with no resources, and no one to guide him. To become a Tier 2 Mortal Pill Refiner was many times more difficult than an average person.
However, that day, Pill Master Ju's ingredient boy was also in the Hall of Affairs, and junior apprentice brother Fei's words infuriated him. This ingredient boy was very cunning; he did not say anything, and only went to find junior apprentice brother Fei to make a mistake. At night, that ingredient boy brought people from the Enforcement Hall over, and said that junior apprentice brother Fei made a mistake, causing Pill Master Ju's batch of pills to fail. The people from the Enforcement Hall brought junior apprentice brother Fei away on the spot … "
Mo Wuji's face turned ugly. Pill Master Ju was a Tier 3 Mortal Pill Refiner, how could he not be able to tell if he made a mistake? How could his ingredient boy have the guts to purposely make a mistake to fool him?
"Pill Master Mo, I heard that Pill Master Ju and Pill Master Yan had to attend an exchange meeting. Junior apprentice brother Fei should still be locked up in the Enforcement Hall, I think … "Wu Rongzhi said hesitantly.
Mo Wuji immediately understood Wu Rongzhi's meaning, and said without hesitation, "I will make a trip to the Enforcement Hall now."
If Fei Bingzhu was killed, he could only help Fei Bingzhu in the future. Now that Fei Bingzhu was still alive, no matter what, he had to save him.
