Outsider?
The next day, Qin Shaofeng woke up early in the morning after adapting to his new strength.
Although he had not rested for the entire night, Qin Shaofeng was still full of energy and did not feel tired at all.
Now that he had the strength, Qin Shaofeng did not want to delay any longer.
Although there was no news of the Beast Tide, Qin Shaofeng felt that it was better to move the people of Yanhuo Village to Lihuo City as soon as possible. It would be safer.
Therefore, Qin Shaofeng decided to take a stroll in the medical hall and test out his identity as a Grandmaster Medicine Master to see if it was useful.
However, the moment Qin Shaofeng opened the door to his room, he was greeted by a flustered Yan Gang, who was running towards him in a hurry.
It seemed like this kid was looking for him.
What was going on?
Seeing Yan Gang's flustered look, Qin Shaofeng was puzzled.
At this moment, Yan Gang saw Qin Shaofeng and did not wait for Qin Shaofeng to ask. He hurriedly shouted, "Big Brother Qin, this is bad. That Grandmaster Fang is looking for you and he has brought many experts with him!"
Hmm?
Grandmaster Fang is looking for me?
Qin Shaofeng frowned and instinctively activated his Eyes of Fire and Gold. Then, he was shocked.
It was really as Yan Gang had said. That Grandmaster Fang had brought people to look for him, and he had an aggressive look on his face.
However, the important thing was that the people Grandmaster Fang had brought with him were not ordinary.
They were all Sacred Elephant Realm experts. Qin Shaofeng even sensed the aura of two or three Sacred Elephant Realm experts.
What was going on?
Qin Shaofeng was stunned.
At this moment, Grandmaster Fang finally appeared in front of Qin Shaofeng.
As soon as Grandmaster Fang appeared and saw Qin Shaofeng, he immediately shouted, "Quick, this kid hasn't run away yet. Take him down!"
Qin Shaofeng frowned slightly, but there was no fear on his face. He stared at Grandmaster Fang and said coldly, "What is the meaning of this, Grandmaster Fang?"
"What do I mean?" Grandmaster Fang smiled Coldly. "Kid, stop pretending. I already know your identity. You are not from our world, but an outsider from the outside world, right?"
What?
Grandmaster Fang's words shocked Qin Shaofeng.
Had he been exposed?
To be honest, Qin Shaofeng had never felt anything about his identity as an outsider.
An outsider is an outsider. What's the big deal?
Strictly speaking, he was a complete outsider!
Qin Shaofeng did not forget that the other half of his soul, which was now the dominant soul consciousness, came from Earth!
Because he did not feel anything, Qin Shaofeng did not inquire about the situation of an outsider. Qin Shaofeng did not feel anything before. In his opinion, even if his identity as an outsider was exposed, it would not be a big deal.
But looking at the situation in front of him, Qin Shaofeng knew that he was wrong.
Perhaps this world was very resistant to outsiders. At least, this was the case for Qin Shaofeng in Lihuo City.
Qin Shaofeng had seen clearly that the Sacred Elephant Realm experts following Grandmaster Fang were all wearing the battle robes of Lihuo City's guards.
These guards could not be mobilized by Grandmaster Fang. This operation was probably the City Lord's Mansion's idea.
However, Qin Shaofeng did not panic. Even his expression did not change.
"Ha, what a joke!" Qin Shaofeng sneered and looked at Grand Master Fang with disdain. "Grand Master Fang, are you out of your mind? How dare you say that I'm an outsider? Even if you're talking nonsense, there should be a limit, right?"
"I'm confused?"
Grandmaster Fang was angry, but soon he sneered and said, "Boy, don't deny it. Your alchemy skills and speed of smelting herbs are not our skills. Only an outsider can have such skills. Are you still an outsider?"
Grandmaster Fang's voice became stern. He did not intend to give Qin Shaofeng a chance to defend himself. He shouted to the guards around him, "Why aren't you doing anything? Are you waiting for this outsider to escape? "
"Stop!"
At this moment, a cold voice was heard, and then a black shadow flashed. It was Li Ruojun.
"Miss!"
As soon as Li Ruojun appeared, the guards all saluted.
However, Grandmaster Fang's face darkened. He said angrily, "Li Ruojun, what do you mean? Qin Shaofeng is an outsider. As the daughter of the City Lord, how can you protect him? "
A trace of dissatisfaction flashed in Li Ruojun's eyes. She looked at Grandmaster Fang and said coldly, "Fang Zaishan, don't slander me. It is not up to you to decide whether Qin Shaofeng is an outsider or not. The guards are only here to investigate. You are not qualified to order them!"
"Besides, the City Lord's Mansion should be in charge of the affairs of outsiders. Don't forget your identity!"
"You …"
Grandmaster Fang was angry when Li Ruojun called him by his real name. Especially when Li Ruojun said the last sentence, Grandmaster Fang's heart burned with anger.
However, Li Ruojun was right. He was only a Grandmaster Medical Master. He did not have the right to order the guards.
After all, these guards were not his subordinates. Although Fang Zaishan wanted to bring his own subordinates, as Li Ruojun said, even if Qin Shaofeng was an outsider, it was not under his control.
"I am just thinking for Lihuo City. After all, the sudden appearance of an outsider is a great threat to Lihuo City and even to Qing King's territory. As a Grandmaster Medical Master, how can I stay out of this?" Fang Zaishan tried to defend himself.
However, Li Ruojun ignored him this time. Instead, he turned to Qin Shaofeng with a complicated look in his eyes. Then, he asked softly, "Qin Shaofeng, tell me the truth. Are you an outsider?"
Qin Shaofeng shrugged slightly and said helplessly, "Miss Li, what outsider? This has nothing to do with me. Grandmaster Fang came to my door early in the morning. I am still confused!"
Seeing that Qin Shaofeng denied it, Li Ruojun secretly heaved a sigh of relief. "It's good that you are not. However, it will be a little troublesome this time because you are not from Yanhuo Village. Also, some people think that you are an outsider. Therefore, you will have to cooperate this time. However, don't worry. With me around, no one will dare to frame you! "
With that last sentence, Li Ruojun turned his gaze to Fang Zaishan. His meaning was obvious.
Fang Zaishan's lungs were about to explode!
However, deep down, Fang Zaishan firmly believed that Qin Shaofeng was an outsider.
The reason was simple. His Seven-Revolution Divine Mystery Pill formula was actually an outsider's item. However, Qin Shaofeng had been able to refine a modified version of the Seven-Revolution Divine Mystery Pill.
This meant that Qin Shaofeng definitely had a certain understanding of the Seven-Revolution Divine Mystery Pill formula.
No, to be precise, Qin Shaofeng had a very thorough understanding of the Seven-Revolution Divine Mystery Pill formula.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to refine the Seven-Revolution Divine Mystery Pill using the Extreme Ice Grass.
At first, Fang Zaishan hadn't had such suspicions. However, when Li Yuan had come looking for him last night, he had suddenly come to a realization.
He knew a lot about the Seven-Revolution Divine Mystery Pill. Plus, its origins were unknown. When he had appeared in Yanhuo Village, he had been seriously injured and on the verge of death.
Especially after some investigation, Fang Zaishan felt even more certain that Qin Shaofeng was just as Li Yuan had said. He wasn't one of them, but an outsider!
After confirming this, Fang Zaishan did not hesitate to go to the City Lord's Mansion, which led to the current situation.
The reason Fang Zaishan had been so anxious was actually very simple. In his opinion, Qin Shaofeng was an outsider, so he definitely had a lot of good things on him.
Putting everything else aside, just the method of refining the Seven-turn Divine Mystery Pill with the Extreme Icicle Grass and the magical refining method were enough to make him, a grandmaster medical pharmacist, extremely moved.
As long as Qin Shaofeng was recognized as an outsider, he would be able to take all of Qin Shaofeng's belongings without any scruples.
In fact, this operation was just a mission for the guards, so Fang Zaishan had nothing to do with it.
However, Fang Zaishan had intended to let the guards take action while he followed Qin Shaofeng to get his hands on the items on him.
This way, it wouldn't matter even if it was confirmed that Qin Shaofeng wasn't an outsider.
He had already gotten what he deserved, so it didn't matter whether he was an outsider or not.
However, Fang Zaishan hadn't expected Li Ruojun to appear.
If this person had been from another City Lord Mansion, Fang Zaishan wouldn't have cared.
However, Li Ruojun had an extremely high reputation in Lihuo City, especially among the guards of Lihuo City, who were extremely supportive of Li Ruojun. As long as Li Ruojun was around, even if there were three ninth-level Sacred Elephant Boundary powerhouses on good terms with Li Ruojun, Li Ruojun would still have the final say in this operation.
Sure enough, just as Fang Zaishan had guessed, Li Ruojun's words made the guards stop and they didn't try to capture Qin Shaofeng.
At most, they would surround Qin Shaofeng to prevent Qin Shaofeng from escaping.
This situation made Fang Zaishan extremely angry. He even somewhat hoped that Qin Shaofeng would escape.
In that case, no matter what Li Ruojun said, the guards would immediately take Qin Shaofeng down.
Unfortunately, Fang Zaishan was destined not to see this happen.
Qin Shaofeng didn't have any intention of escaping!
At least not now!
As he spoke, if Qin Shaofeng intended to escape at this moment, no one present would do so.
In Qin Shaofeng's opinion, the only powerhouses who could stop him from escaping were those who were at the peak of the Sacred Elephant Grade or those who had surpassed the Sacred Elephant Grade.
However, to Qin Shaofeng, the act of running away was only a last resort. It was the worst and the last step.
Unless his life was in danger, Qin Shaofeng would never take this last step.
He could escape without any worries, but Qin Shaofeng knew that if he did that, it would undoubtedly prove his identity as an outsider.
This didn't matter to him. At worst, he would be hunted down. It wasn't as if he hadn't encountered such a situation before.
The problem was, what about the people of the Yanhuo Village?
They would definitely be implicated and might even be wiped out by Lihuo City.
The people of the Yanhuo Village were simple and honest. After getting along with them for some time, they had treated him rather well.
Therefore, Qin Shaofeng didn't want anything to happen to the people of the Yanhuo Village because of him.
Besides, he might not necessarily be recognized as an outsider!
There were many traveling doctors and pharmacists in this place, and Qin Shaofeng had assumed such an identity from the start.
Furthermore, Qin Shaofeng didn't believe that he would make any mistakes that would cause people to suspect that he was an outsider.
