Pei Zi Yun emptied the jade bottle and placed the pills into the bottle. He counted nine pills in total. He then poured one out from the bottle and saw that the pill was red in color. He swallowed it and immediately felt a refreshing fragrance enter his body. His chest tightened, and he knew that this pill was no ordinary pill.
After meditating for some time, the pill began to take effect. A warm wave of energy spread throughout his body, making him feel extremely comfortable. Usually, one had to circulate the energy of the pill throughout his body. If not, the energy would accumulate and cause harm to the body. Pei Zi Yun did not dare to waste any more time and began to circulate the energy.
"First, the energy of the pill."
Feeling his exhaustion dissipate, and his body brimming with energy, Pei Zi Yun thought to himself, "These medicinal ingredients must be very valuable as well. It is beneficial to the body."
"Next, the energy."
Pei Zi Yun could feel a wave of energy seeping out from his body. After going through the ninth layer of energy, the energy slowly seeped into his brain. Pei Zi Yun could feel his consciousness growing.
"This is indeed a miraculous item. Just one pill has such benefits. No wonder Shen Zhen was able to break through the gates of heaven even though he was injured." Pei Zi Yun held the pill in his hand as he spoke.
Looking at the skeleton on the ground, Pei Zi Yun sighed, "This Daoist must have obtained this spiritual medicine. He didn't know that it would be punished by the heavens. He had just finished refining the pill when he died in the basement."
"Rest in peace. Since I've obtained your pill, I shall find a place for you to rest in peace." Pei Zi Yun picked up the skeleton on the ground.
He thought for some time before placing a hundred taels of silver on the table. He then turned around and left, "Although I took this pill from this mansion, it doesn't belong to your Li family. With these hundred taels of silver, I shall be able to clear my debt."
"I shall go to the Shen family now!"
Pei Zi Yun walked out of the mansion and heard the sound of the drums. He walked south along the main street and landed on a rooftop on the right side of the street. He flew across several alleys and disappeared into a huge mansion.
This place was known as the Shen family, then the Meng family, and now the Shen family. It occupied a huge area, with pavilions and flowers scattered all around. Several buildings formed a courtyard, and were connected by flower paths. The entire place was quiet and serene.
"The management of the third generation seems to be as deep as the sea. In my opinion, it's not only the tribulation of the third generation who wants to break through the fog and turn it into Dao, it's also the backlash of the third generation's management of the Small Swords Society."
"For such a luxurious Shen family, it's impossible without at least a few hundred lives." Pei Zi Yun morphed into a blurry shadow and entered the house. He searched the entire courtyard and realized that there were many houses here. After searching a few places, he couldn't find anyone.
"Eh, why isn't Shen Zhen here?"
Pei Zi Yun frowned as he thought of what Shen Zhen had told him before, "That's right, Shen Zhen returned to the Dagger Society and killed many people. He has many enemies, and the officials are still searching for him. How could he have returned just like that? Before settling all his troubles, I'm afraid he has hidden himself within the city. The only way to find him is to find the Dagger Society."
As soon as he leapt over the wall, he saw six men dressed in black, all dressed in the same outfit. They were all staring at Pei Zi Yun, "Who are you? Why did you enter the Shen family? Are you an enemy?"
Hearing these words, Pei Zi Yun laughed, "I am a good friend of Shen Zhen. This is a token of my loyalty."
Pei Zi Yun handed over the dagger which Shen Zhen had given him. The leader of the group received the dagger and saw the word 'Shen' inscribed on the dagger. His expression relaxed, "So you're a good friend of the Sect Leader. You climbed over the wall in the middle of the night, and I thought you were an enemy. I'm not done with my business, and I hope Young Master won't take offense."
"Please lead the way." Pei Zi Yun said as the leader led Pei Zi Yun away.
At this point, the stars had changed, and the sun was rising. A small courtyard was brightly lit. Pei Zi Yun had just arrived when he saw a light shining from the door. It was Shen Zhen who welcomed him, "Master Top Scorer, what brings you here in the middle of the night?"
"I have something good to talk to you about."
"Master Top Scorer, please come in and speak." Shen Zhen then led Pei Zi Yun into the room and sat down. Pei Zi Yun looked at Shen Zhen's face and asked, "Shen Zhen, why are your injuries still so serious?"
"Cough cough!" Just as Shen Zhen was about to speak, he started coughing violently. After a long time, he sighed, "Although master Top Scorer stopped me from using the Deadly Body Technique, I still managed to activate it."
"Initially, this wouldn't have been a problem. It would only hurt some of my energy, and not much."
"However, the poison from the Thousand Threads Technique entered my body, and entered my internal organs. It would be difficult to remove it."
"Besides, although I'm in charge of the Dagger Society, there are still Meng Luo Gong's men around. Although I'm fine, my injuries have been aggravated."
"Young Master has come to look for me. Do you need my help?" Shen Zhen asked.
"We'll talk about it later. Your injuries cannot be delayed any longer. This is a spiritual pill, you can use it." Pei Zi Yun looked at it and spoke.
Shen Zhen received the pill and smelled its fragrance, causing him to feel extremely comfortable.
"Young Master, I shall politely decline." Shen Zhen did not hesitate and swallowed the pill. After a while, he stood up and left. So it was to expel the stench and feces.
After some time, a refreshed Shen Zhen walked into the room and said loudly, "I've received many favors from Young Master, and do not know how to repay you."
"At this point, I do have something that I need your help with." Pei Zi Yun looked at Shen Zhen. It seemed like the poison had been removed.
"Young Master, please speak. If Young Master has an order, I shall do it." Shen Zhen leaned closer to Pei Zi Yun and whispered, "Young Master, if you want to kill someone, it's the County Magistrate. I shall kill him as well. "
"It's not that serious. Meng Luo Gong is dead, but the commander is still on the run." Pei Zi Yun then explained to him what had happened to Shi Mu Zhong.
"So Young Master is talking about Xie Cheng Dong's subordinates. Hm hm, because of him, my family was destroyed. Even if Young Master didn't say anything, I would still kill him." Shen Zhen agreed immediately, as if remembering what had happened years ago. His eyes were filled with killing intent.
Xin Family Inn
"Young Master Song, you've finally arrived."
Song Zhi's face was covered, and his expression was cold. He did not speak as he followed Shi Mu Zhong into the room. He then removed his mask and looked at Shi Mu Zhong, "You've called me here. What do you intend to do?"
Shi Mu Zhong tapped his fingers on the table, "Young Master Song, drink some tea. Let's drink some tea before we speak."
"Clap clap!" Shi Mu Zhong clapped his hands together, and a young lady came in with tea. She placed the tea in front of Song Zhi and Shi Mu Zhong before retreating out of the room.
"Please!" Shi Mu Zhong looked at the anxious Song Zhi and smiled. He then pushed the cup of tea in front of Song Zhi.
Song Zhi then suppressed the anger in his heart and picked up the cup of tea in front of him. He took a sip. As for the young lady just now, she looked pretty good, but he wasn't interested in her at all.
"Young Master Song, I've invited you here because I have something good for you." Shi Mu Zhong tapped the table as he spoke.
Hearing these words, Song Zhi raised his head, his face was cold, "What benefits can you offer me? You've invited me here just to talk about this. I shall take my leave then."
Song Zhi had no patience for such nonsense, and stood up to leave.
Shi Mu Zhong watched as Song Zhi stood up to leave, "Young Master, listen to me. I have a way to help you get Ye Su 'er. I'm sure you've been reading through the books these few days. I'm sure you're clearer than any of us about this woman."
Hearing these words, Song Zhi stopped in his tracks. He then turned around and looked at Shi Mu Zhong, "You have a way to help me get this woman?"
Song Zhi's eyes were bloodshot, and he looked extremely ferocious. Seeing Song Zhi like this, Shi Mu Zhong knew that he had been corrupted. This man only cared about Pei Zi Yun and Ye Su 'er. He then said coldly, "I can tell you where this woman is. She left True Element Sect and arrived at Peach Blossom Origins Monastery."
"At True Element Sect, we have no way. But at Peach Blossom Origins Monastery, there are many ways."
"Furthermore, this woman has a Phoenix constitution. If you get your hands on her, you'll definitely be able to break through the gates of heaven. Don't you think that's a good thing?" Shi Mu Zhong laughed out as he spoke.
"Hm, how do I know if you're telling the truth or not?" Song Zhi replied coldly.
"We'll know once we find out. What's the point of me lying? I've said it clearly before. You and I have a common goal, and that is to kill Pei Zi Yun. "
"You pass, and I'll explain everything to you in detail." Shi Mu Zhong whispered into Song Zhi's ears.
As he finished speaking, Song Zhi's face showed signs of hesitation, as if he was struggling internally. Shi Mu Zhong laughed, "Young Master Song, why are you hesitating? What are you afraid of?"
He placed his hand on Song Zhi's shoulder and said, "Think about opening the gates of heaven. When you become the Disciple of the Sect, Ye Su 'er will be a perfect match for you. All you have to do is propose to the Sect Leader of True Element Sect, and you'll have Ye Su' er's body. Do you still have to be afraid that the Sect Leader will reject you?"
Shi Mu Zhong was like a devil as he tried to entice Song Zhi. Hearing these words, Song Zhi's eyes turned red as he gritted his teeth and said, "Let's do it!"
"Young Master Song, what do you think of the young lady just now?" Shi Mu Zhong asked softly.
Song Zhi thought about the beautiful woman's figure and face, and felt his heart heat up. He then replied, "She's indeed a beauty."
"Clap clap!" Shi Mu Zhong clapped his hands gently. The young lady who had just served tea had entered the room once again. Seeing this, Song Zhi felt his heart heat up.
"She's here to serve Young Master Song." Shi Mu Zhong said as he looked at the beautiful woman.
"Young Master!" The young lady leaned in close to Song Zhi, and Song Zhi's eyes were filled with passion.
"The room upstairs has already been reserved. This woman is still a virgin. She's the perfect vessel for dual cultivation." Shi Mu Zhong whispered into Song Zhi's ear.
Hearing these words, Song Zhi's face lit up with joy, "Haha, many thanks Mister Shi."
Song Zhi turned around, hugged the beauty, and hurriedly went upstairs.
Seeing Song Zhi carry the beautiful woman up the stairs, Qin Gao then approached Shi Mu Zhong and asked, "Mister Shi, this man has great ambitions but little talent. How can he be worthy of our support?"
"Besides, Ye Su 'er is really a beauty. Why don't we give her to Young Master? What capabilities does Song Zhi have to even think of touching her? "
When Shi Mu Zhong heard these words, he sighed, "Even if he's been bewitched by the talisman I gave him, he still has some foundation. If we don't throw out a huge bait, how can we get him to go crazy?"
"This Song Zhi harbors ill intentions towards Ye Su 'er. We can plan ahead of time to let Pei Zi Yun know about this. When that happens, Pei Zi Yun will definitely rush over without a care in the world. Song Zhi's actions will make him irreconcilable with Pei Zi Yun. The only way out for him is to join forces with us to kill Pei Zi Yun."
"That's how we fall into our trap. We can wait for him to tire himself out and kill Pei Zi Yun in one fell swoop. After that, we can get the woman and present her to Young Master."
"This is the meaning of turning passivity into initiative."
"I've thought it through. Previously, our plans were too intricate, and Pei Zi Yun used force to break through them. Now, we have to do the exact opposite."
"Our plans aren't that simple. The only thing that matters is whether it's effective. This matter concerns Ye Su 'er's chastity. Even if Pei Zi Yun had thought it through, he wouldn't have called for reinforcements. He could only obediently jump into the trap and accept his death! "
