To him, only by putting the medicinal herbs into his storage ring would he be able to feel at ease.
Even though he had a token that allowed him to enter and exit the Medicine Pavilion at will, the medicinal herb storehouse still belonged to the Medicine Pavilion.
Just as Xiao Yang walked out of the herb mountain, a beam of light quickly descended from the sky. When the light faded, a figure was revealed.
He stood in front of Xiao Yang and looked at Xiao Yang with hostility. His brows were furrowed and his expression was unfriendly.
His name was Qian Jizi, and he was the eldest disciple of the Medicine Pavilion Lord. He was also one of the most capable people in the Medicine Pavilion. His status was very high, and he was one of the most powerful people who managed the Medicine Pavilion on behalf of the Medicine Pavilion Lord.
Such an outstanding prodigy had come to look for Xiao Yang at this moment.
Qian Jizi originally didn't think much of Xiao Yang, nor did he want to look for Xiao Yang. However, all of his trusted subordinates were egging him on, and most of them just didn't like Xiao Yang. Hence, Qian Jizi had no choice but to personally come and talk to Xiao Yang.
Qian Jizi was also quite displeased with how Xiao Yang had been valued by the Medicine Pavilion Lord. However, as the eldest disciple of the Medicine Pavilion Lord, he couldn't express his displeasure in front of the Medicine Pavilion Lord.
However, this didn't stop him from looking for trouble with Xiao Yang.
He was the most outstanding elite of the Medicine Pavilion, and he was also the eldest disciple of the Medicine Pavilion Lord. Why would the Medicine Pavilion Lord give such a valuable token to Xiao Yang, but not to him?
Qian Jizi was very jealous of him.
He didn't dare to question his master, the Medicine Pavilion Lord, but looking for trouble with Xiao Yang was a piece of cake.
He had been managing the Medicine Pavilion on behalf of the Pavilion Master for a year and a half. Under his management, the Medicine Pavilion was almost like a monolithic block of iron. It was equivalent to saying that this was his territory, and his confidence was much higher than that of ordinary people.
He looked at Xiao Yang from top to bottom, wanting to see just what kind of divine being Xiao Yang was, to be able to enchant his master, the Medicine Pavilion Lord, to the point that the Medicine Pavilion Lord had given the token to Xiao Yang.
If Xiao Yang had only come here to pick a few medicinal herbs, he definitely wouldn't have the slightest objection. However, giving out the token was equivalent to acknowledging Xiao Yang.
Qian Jizi didn't even dare to imagine how Xiao Yang would be able to obtain a badge from his master, the Medicine Pavilion Lord, even after all of his hard work and meritorious service.
No one knew better than him the importance of this token.
Xiao Yang was also sizing up the stranger in front of him. He hadn't been in the Poison Sect for long, and most of his time had been spent on cultivation. What little free time he had was spent on missions, so he didn't recognize the second-in-command of the Medicine Pavilion, Qian Jizi.
His expression was completely calm. Even though he could sense Qian Jizi's hostility, he still didn't panic.
After observing Qian Jizi for a while, Xiao Yang didn't want him to misunderstand, so he withdrew his gaze. Through that short observation, he had basically determined Qian Jizi's identity and cultivation base.
He remained silent and didn't intend to say anything. Instead, he prepared to walk around Qian Jizi and leave this place.
He took a few steps forward, and Qian Jizi didn't stop him, nor did he say anything. Just as he was about to walk past Qian Jizi and leave, Qian Jizi's figure blurred. He unleashed some kind of technique, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Xiao Yang. He stared blankly at Xiao Yang, and his eyes were still filled with hostility. However, he still didn't say anything.
His expression was a little arrogant, and aside from the hostility in his eyes, there was also a hint of provocation.
Xiao Yang wasn't someone who could be easily bullied. Even though he knew that Qian Jizi was a sixth-stage Martial Ancestor Realm cultivator, he wasn't afraid. He was also a sixth-stage Martial Ancestor Realm cultivator, so there was no need for him to fear him. Furthermore, Xiao Yang was almost invincible among cultivators of the same cultivation base, so there was no need for him to give face to Qian Jizi.
"Senior Brother, what's the meaning of this? Why are you being so aggressive and making things difficult for me? What's the point of that? "
Xiao Yang narrowed his eyes as he spoke to Qian Jizi.
They were all fellow disciples of the same sect, and if it wasn't absolutely necessary, Xiao Yang didn't want to offend anyone.
He was beginning to wonder if there was something wrong with this stranger.
In any case, he had only come here to select medicinal ingredients after he had performed a meritorious service, and he had also obtained the permission of the Medicine Pavilion Lord. Now that this person had jumped out to stop him, if he were to report this matter to the Medicine Pavilion Lord, he most likely wouldn't be pleased.
Xiao Yang didn't believe that the Medicine Pavilion Lord was someone who would go back on his word. There was no way that the Medicine Pavilion Lord would take back what he had promised him. If he really was such a person, there was no way that he would be in charge of the Medicine Pavilion.
Qian Jizi glanced coldly at Xiao Yang before harrumphing coldly. "I don't care who you are, and I don't care how you managed to fool my master. All you need to do is hand over the badge that my master gave you, and you can leave with the medicinal ingredients that you've chosen."
He didn't care at all about the medicinal ingredients that Xiao Yang had taken away. Even though Xiao Yang had filled his storage ring to the brim, that was nothing to the Medicine Pavilion. Besides, Qian Jizi wasn't an unreasonable person. Seeing as Xiao Yang had performed a meritorious service to the Medicine Pavilion, it wasn't a big deal for him to give some medicinal ingredients to Xiao Yang.
What he couldn't tolerate the most was the badge that Xiao Yang was wearing around his waist. That was something that could only be given to someone who was approved by the Medicine Pavilion Lord. At the very least, that was something that Qian Jizi couldn't get his hands on.
What people cared about the most was what they couldn't get.
If someone else could get their hands on something easily, then that person would be enraged.
"Why should I?"
Xiao Yang chuckled lightly as he looked at Qian Jizi with an intrigued expression before replying in a casual manner.
Even though his reply was very casual, his backbone and arrogance were on full display.
Not everyone had the guts to say something like that. Otherwise, they would be beaten up, and that would only exacerbate the conflict between them.
However, Xiao Yang didn't care. Who did this kid think he was? Even the number one disciple of the Medicine Pavilion had to treat him with respect, so there was no need for him to take this kid seriously.
"Brat, you are very arrogant, and very arrogant."
Qian Jizi couldn't help but chuckle. He was looking down on Xiao Yang even more now.
Ever since he had taken over the Medicine Pavilion on behalf of the Medicine Pavilion Lord, no one had dared to speak to him in such a manner. Everyone who saw him would treat him with utmost respect and flattery.
It was precisely because of this that he had developed a mindset that everything was going smoothly for him.
Now that he had encountered a tough nut to crack, he couldn't help but feel an unbearable itch in his heart.
Qian Jizi felt like if he didn't teach Xiao Yang a lesson, Xiao Yang definitely wouldn't accept it. He couldn't help but narrow his eyes as he pondered whether he should give Xiao Yang a physical blow or mentally crush Xiao Yang. Or perhaps, he could do both at the same time.
"It's alright to be a little arrogant in life. Isn't the point of living a cowardly life so that one day, you can hold your head high?"
Xiao Yang also chuckled. The two of them were filled with hostility, but there was also an illusion that they admired each other.
