Yu Yuan's lips curled into a smile, but there was no trace of a smile in her eyes.
From the moment he set foot on the Medicine God Island, he had a panoramic view of everything on and off the island.
He could see everything.
He could even smell that the people next to Qu Yun, who were wearing the robes of the Medicine God Sect, did not have the smell of herbs.
This meant that those people had not been in contact with medicine for at least half a year.
Those who studied medicine all year round or just picked herbs would more or less have the smell of pills and herbs on them — this was inevitable.
Those people did not have the smell of herbs on them, but they were wearing the robes of the Medicine God Sect, not the robes of external guests.
Moreover, their cultivation levels were not low. They all surrounded Qu Yun as if they were the masters of this island and the Medicine God Sect.
On the contrary, the so-called true alchemists who were proficient in pill refinement had become their slaves.
They served them.
They seemed to use the pills painstakingly refined by the medicine masters in exchange for spiritual materials from the Tongtian Trading Company and various sects for their own cultivation.
The medicine masters seemed to have been reduced to tools for them to break through their cultivation levels.
In his previous life, when he was still Hong Qi, on the first day he entered the Medicine God Sect, his master had solemnly told him that the Medicine God Sect was the pure land and home of alchemists, not a sect controlled by cultivators.
Medicine masters were always the masters of the Medicine God Sect, and powerful cultivators could only be guests to serve the medicine masters.
Now, the rules of the Medicine God Sect seemed to have been reversed.
The red-haired old man was named Chi Ye. He was of the same generation as his master and had been obsessed with medicine all his life.
Chi Ye had been good to him in the past. Later, when his temperament changed, Chi Ye left him and never saw him again.
Yu Yuan also remembered the old woman on the ground. Three hundred years ago, she was just a girl with a ponytail.
Her name was Zhong Ying. She had cute canine teeth. When she entered the Medicine God Sect, he watched the ceremony end and watched her enter the sect with a group of young men and women.
Yu Yuan also had a vague impression of some of the old people hiding in the cave abode.
Mortals still had a lifespan of several decades to a hundred years. Although these alchemists didn't have good talent, they had also stepped onto the path of cultivation. It wasn't strange for them to live for several hundred years.
As for the alchemists, because they didn't need to go out on expeditions, they were able to avoid the risk of accidentally dying in battle.
For this reason, he was able to find many familiar faces on the Medicine God Island.
He also saw a young man with a body as small as a woman's, but a large head, standing up as he looked at the trenches of fire and water in front of him.
In this person's hand, there was a huge red wine pot. Beside him were many wine jars.
His true body stayed below all year round, while the big-headed young man who went out with his Yang Spirit seemed to be in charge of taking care of the Earth Fire. He guided the flaming liquid in the ravines to different Immortal's Caves on Herb Mountain for the alchemists to refine pills.
After hearing the commotion outside, he quietly flew out and stopped on the left side of Qu Yun.
"Foreign Dignitary Lian!"
The brocade-robed young man on the flying boat and a few people close to Qu Yun were shocked.
Lian Hu, the big-headed young man who had been recruited by the Medicine God Sect as a foreign dignitary, stared at Yu Yuan, who was obviously a stranger, with red light flashing in his eyes. "Who are you?"
"Lian Hu, do you not recognize me, or do you not dare to recognize me?"
The smile at the corner of Yu Yuan's mouth finally grew a little warmer. Looking at the big-headed young man in front of him, he said, "Lian Hu, I'm surprised that you're still alive."
Lian Hu was confused.
Many crimson halos suddenly appeared on the ground where he was standing. The volcano on the Medicine God Island trembled slightly, and lava seemed to be brewing at the mouth of the volcano.
"Lian Hu, don't you remember the master you used to serve?"
The red-haired Chi Ye curled his lips and said coldly, "Only people like you can live a good life after your master's accident. But if it weren't for your former master's approval, how could you enter the Medicine God Sect like a stray dog? "
"It's because you're jackals of the same tribe. He appreciated you and accepted you!"
Chi Ye was scolding Yu Yuan as well.
Yu Yuan's expression was normal, as if he was used to it. He was unperturbed.
In his previous life, when had he not heard Chi Ye's even harsher words?
"My former … master?!"
The big-headed young man's face was a little dull. He stared at Yu Yuan and then rubbed his eyes, as if he couldn't tell reality from illusion.
"Not bad. You've cultivated to the late stage of the Sun Spirit Realm. It seems that my senior martial brother treats you well." Yu Yuan put on a fake smile.
The last time he came to the Leiyan Islands, he didn't explore the Medicine God Island. Of course, he didn't have the ability to do so.
Now that he was back, he had a panoramic view of the entire island. Only then did he realize that Lian Hu, whom he had recruited to do evil with him, was actually under the island.
He seemed to be living a good life.
"I …"
As soon as Lian Hu opened his mouth, he found that his voice was trembling badly.
"Sect, Sect Master Hong!"
"Honch!"
"Yu Yuan!"
On the island, Chi Ye, Zhong Ying, and many other pharmacists and guest elders exclaimed different names. They all looked at Yu Yuan with different expressions.
Some were fearful, some were disgusted, some were surprised, and some were gloating.
However, they didn't have the sincere joy and excitement that Yu Yuan expected.
It seemed that everyone present, no matter what their relationship was, didn't have a good impression of him …
This discovery made Yu Yuan feel a little uncomfortable. He also realized that some of his actions in the later years of his life might have hurt those who were on his side before.
"A wise man submits to circumstances. That's what you said to me when you recruited me."
Lian Hu took a deep breath, his face flushed red. He suppressed the fear in his heart as soon as it rose. "You failed to reincarnate. Since your body and soul have been destroyed, and you still want to be loyal to the Medicine God Sect, then... you will still be my guest elder."
"Also, Sectmaster Zhong has been good to me. You've given me all the cultivation materials I've needed over the years. "
Lian Hu spread his hands, as if he hadn't done anything wrong. "How could I have known that your reincarnation would succeed three hundred years later? After you came back to life and spread the news that Yu Yuan was you, you left the forbidden land of the Fallen Moons and went to the starry river. I … "
Face bitter, he looked very wronged. "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
"Stay by the side and don't do anything strange. I'll talk to you about something else later." With these words, Yu Yuan looked up at the brocade-robed young man who hadn't come down from the flying boat. His expression grew cold.
A ball of blood-colored light suddenly exploded under the flying boat, causing it and the brocade-robed young man to explode.
The young man's Yin Spirit couldn't even leave his body before it was reduced to a cloud of cyan smoke.
"Honch!"
Qu Yun, who had been silent for a long time, finally couldn't help but shout at the young man's death. "The Shenhun Sect and the five supreme forces have an agreement. Neither side is allowed to fight for the time being! You're no longer a member of the Medicine God Sect. Why did you suddenly break in and kill our people? "
"Agreement? If anyone below the Yang Spirit Stage dies, then so be it. It doesn't break the rules. Don't you know? "Yu Yuan smiled.
Qu Yun froze.
"Even if someone like you has reached the Yang Spirit Realm, I still dare to break the rules!"
Yu Yuan's smile didn't change. His shoulders trembled slightly as he suddenly stopped in front of Qu Yun. Seeing the hesitation on Lian Hu's face, he shot him a glance and said, "Think carefully."
Lian Hu felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave. He suddenly remembered how vicious and ruthless the man in front of him had been.
Lian Hu, who had been wavering, lowered his head slightly, as if he and Qu Yun couldn't see him anymore.
"Honch!" Qu Yun said angrily. "What do you want to do in the Medicine God Sect?"
Not long ago, he had learned about Yu Yuan's deeds from Chu Yao, which had made him restless. He had been worried that he would run into Yu Yuan at some point.
In the end, what he feared had happened. Yu Yuan, who was supposed to be in the outer realm of the starry river, had suddenly appeared on the Medicine God Island.
He hadn't been on guard at all. Because of the news from Chu Yao, he had been filled with fear of Yu Yuan.
"From the moment my foot landed on this island, everything on this island returned to my control. The life and death of all the alchemists on this island will be decided by me. "
After a pause, Yu Yuan said indifferently, "Of course, that includes you, Martial Uncle Qu."
"How dare you!"
