At the Tongtian Trading Company's branch in Spider City.
Qin Yun, who had reached the Soul Wander Realm, accepted a green bracelet from Gao Qin with a flattering smile on his face.
Qin Yun sent a wisp of his consciousness into the mustard seed bracelet in his hand. When he saw the orderly arrangement of medicinal herbs and juices of various colors, he beamed with joy and repeatedly expressed his thanks. "Young Master Yu said that he's only borrowing from the Skyspan Trading Company. He'll return it with interest later."
Zhu Peining, the manager of the Chamber of Commerce, nodded with a smile. "Yu Yuan, please come and see me when you come out of the island in the middle of the lake."
"Of course, of course!"
Qin Yun put away the emerald green bracelet, bowed and left.
"Strange."
Gao Qin of the Chamber of Commerce rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "The herbs and juices on Yu Yuan's list are all used to refine medicine. After he returned to the island at the center of the lake, he arranged for Qin Yun to come to us and borrow some herbs. What is he planning to do? "
Before Zhu Peining could answer, Gao Qin asked himself, "He's not planning to refine medicine, is he?"
"Who knows," Zhu Peining said.
"Hahaha!"
Gao Qin laughed at the top of his lungs. "Is Yu Yuan an all-rounder? He cultivates the Fiend Demon Sect's body refinement arts and has reached the Subtle realm at such a fast speed. Where would he find the time to study medicine refinement? The threshold for medicine refinement is even higher than cultivation. Not everyone can do it. "
He was speaking the truth. Medicine refiners were even rarer than cultivators and harder to learn.
"Isn't that so?" Zhu Peining frowned slightly. "But Yu Yuan is strange in every way. Since he has a close relationship with Yu Zhu and the Python Queen Xu Zixi is backing him, he shouldn't have to worry about not being able to return the herbs he borrowed from the Chamber of Commerce. "
"Of course not." Gao Qin nodded. "I received news that Mo Yan supported the Gao Family of Profound Moon City in the Demon Moon Empire and had Gao Zhengxing replace Yuan Lianyao as the new City Lord. We have never had any dealings with Gao Zhengxing. If he becomes the City Lord, won't it hinder the Chamber of Commerce? "
"Gao Zhengxing doesn't have that kind of power, but Mo Yan is behind him. If he really wants to go against the Chamber of Commerce, it will be troublesome." At this point, Zhu Peining also felt a headache, "Mo Yan's background is too big, the Chamber of Commerce is not willing to offend him easily. He's in Dark Moon City. Don't go overboard. Just bear with it. "
"That's the only way."
When he thought of Mo Yan's father, the Primordial Soul Stage expert who was second only to the Devil Master in the Devil's Palace, Gao Qin also felt immense pressure.
…
On the island in the middle of the lake that was covered by the "Netherfire Poison Stream Array".
Whoosh!
Colorful miasma clouds surged, and a soul shadow flew over under the night sky, stopping in the clouds above the island in the center of the lake.
On the island, Yu Yuan, who had been using his spiritual sense to comprehend the various mysteries of the Subtle realm, suddenly opened his eyes!
With a thought, clusters of multicolored miasma clouds opened up a large space.
Yu Yuan snorted coldly as he stared at the sneaky Du Jing. "You came here in the middle of the night as a Yin Spirit. Do you want to die?"
In the Desolate God Great Lake, Du Jing, Zhan Yun, Long Yang, Tan Yuan, and Shen Feiqing of the Yin Charm Sect were scattered in the Sword Prison.
When he walked out of the Sword Prison, the group of evil spirits were terrified of the Evil God Statue and scattered. Du Jing was also among them.
When the Evil God Statue's soul entered his sea of consciousness, he could have killed Du Jing, but he didn't do so.
After all, Du Jing was his herb slave in his previous life. He didn't do anything and let Du Jing die on his own. He didn't expect Du Jing to survive in the form of a Yin Spirit.
Not only did he survive, he even left the lake and came here.
"I'm not here to court death."
Du Jing's nether deity hovered over the toxic miasma in the sky, not daring to descend any further. Looking down at the multicolored clouds, a complicated expression appeared on his face as he said, "The master I served was an expert in refining toxic miasma and setting up spell formations."
Yu Yuan remained silent.
Du Jing sighed and looked at Yu Yuan. He hesitated for a moment before he said, "You and that woman from the Red Devil School in the Rift Yan Islands, right?"
Yu Yuan's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't show any change on his face. He just looked at Du Jing coldly.
"You and that woman from the Red Devil School disguised yourselves, but it's useless." Du Jing looked at him and said in a low voice, "It was Old Tong who chased my body away from the Locust Tree Forest. I've already asked around about Old Tong, you, and Yuan Lianyao returning to Spider City. "
As soon as he said this, Yu Yuan's eyebrows sank. He knew where the problem was, but he still didn't say anything.
"I should've guessed it."
Du Jing's slightly strange Yin Spirit looked around above the Deep Flame Poison Stream Formation and said, "Yutu first appeared in the Bifeng Mountain Range and began to show his strength in the Chillywind Valley. The Deep Flame Poison Stream Formation protected the Chillywind Valley and was later brought here. "
After a moment of silence.
Du Jing spoke again. "You must've received his inheritance somewhere in the Bifeng Mountain Range, right? Then you went to the Flying Clouds Island and got the key from Zu An. Is that right? "
Yu Yuan snorted.
WHOOSH! WHOOSH!
A dark cloud of smoke, as thick as ink, suddenly flew up from the center of the island and wrapped around Du Jing's Yin Deity, pulling him into the center of the island.
The black cloud slowly seeped into Du Jing's Yin Spirit, carrying a poison that could corrode souls.
Du Jing paled in shock. He clearly didn't expect Yu Yuan, who had just reached the Subtle realm in Sword Prison, to be able to control the Deep Flame Poison Stream Formation with such precision and use a miasma that was specifically targeted at souls against him.
ZZZT! ZZZT!
Du Jing's Yin Spirit quickly melted within the black cloud.
"Yu Yuan! Since you've received his medicine refining inheritance and have been acknowledged by him, I'm willing to serve you and recognize you as my new master! "Du Jing's Yin Spirit cried out within the cloud, begging him.
If they weren't on the island at the center of the lake and not inside the Deep Flame Poison Stream Formation, Yu Yuan wouldn't be able to do anything to Du Jing after losing the Fiendish Demon Cauldron and the scabbard.
But Du Jing didn't know what was good for him and thought that he could easily escape with his wandering Yin Spirit.
"Serve me as your master?"
Yu Yuan put on a fake smile as he looked at Du Jing's disappearing Yin Spirit. He shook his head and said, "I've heard a little about your loyalty to Du Jing. I'm sorry, but I don't need you to serve me. I just need you to die. "
No matter how much Du Jing begged, the black cloud wrapped around his Yin Spirit continued to corrode it.
In a short moment, Du Jing, who had escaped from the Great Desolate God Marsh, was inside the Deep Fire Poison Stream Formation on the island at the center of the desolate lake. His soul was corroded by the poison, causing all traces of his existence to disappear from this part of the world.
Poof!
Yu Yuan's expression changed slightly when Du Jing's last wisp of soul exploded within the black cloud.
The Desolate God's aura had quietly leaked out from that wisp of soul.
Just for an instant …
But Yu Yuan knew that the Desolate God, who was far away in the Great Desolate God Lake, had left a wisp of his soul hidden within Du Jing's Yin Spirit and seen his actions through Du Jing.
Du Jing's physical body was on a nameless island in the Rift Yan Archipelago, waiting for his successor to appear in the locust tree forest.
The Yin Spirit was hidden in the Great Desolate God Lake, protected by the Desolate God.
This meant that the Desolate God must have taken a liking to something on Du Jing's body, which was why he allowed Du Jing to stay in the Great Desolate God Lake.
Now, he had used the Deep Flame Poison Stream Formation to kill Du Jing. The Desolate God had seen all of this in secret. Would it affect him later on, when he asked the Desolate God for the Fiendish Demon Cauldron, the scabbard, and the sword soul at the bottom of the scabbard?
Thinking up to this point, Yu Yuan's expression flickered, and he no longer had the heart to continue cultivating.
An hour later.
Under the bright moonlight, Yuan Lianyao, who was wearing a red dress, gracefully landed on the lakeside outside the island at the center of the lake. Yu Yuan, who sensed something in his heart, unsealed the Deep Flame Poison Stream Formation. When he led Yuan Lianyao in, he saw that the former City Lord's eyes were somewhat dim.
"What's wrong?" Yu Yuan asked with concern.
"After arguing with that Mo Yan, I had a clash of soul power and suffered a bit of a loss," Yuan Lianyao said with a frustrated expression. "Mo Yan wields the Kiara Demonic Saber, which means he's even stronger than when he was in the Rift Yan Archipelago. Not only did he make Gao Zhengxing the City Lord of Dark Moon City, but he also wants your Yu Clan to hand over the land and mines you took from the Huang Clan a few years ago. "
Yu Yuan exclaimed, "Mo Yan again!"
