At this moment, among the crowd, Zhao Lingyan and the other four were dumbfounded as they looked at Li Chu and Ye Rong on the ground. Their eyes were filled with shock, and they couldn't utter a single word.
Truthfully speaking, Zhao Lingyan and the other four really wanted to kill Li Chu and Ye Rong. At the very least, they wanted to cripple them, just like what was happening right now.
However, thoughts were thoughts, actions were actions. In fact, just as the surrounding people had said, even if Zhao Lingyan and the other four were given a hundred guts, they wouldn't dare to do anything to Li Chu and Ye Rong.
There was no other reason. The Black Orchid Sect was a small matter, and the key was the Northern Heavens Holy Land!
Li Chu and Ye Rong were already preparatory disciples of the Northern Heavens Holy Land, and they were only one step away from becoming official disciples of the Northern Heavens Holy Land after receiving the registration.
With this backing, no one in the Great Western Prefecture would dare to touch Li Chu and Ye Rong as long as they didn't have a brain and didn't want to live anymore.
But now …!
Crazy!
It was simply too crazy!
Xiao Fan's unscrupulousness was far beyond the imagination of Zhao Lingyan and the other four. He had directly looked down on the Heavenly Sword Mountain, and now, he had beaten up the preparatory disciples of the Northern Heavens Holy Land in public. Not only did he not put the Heavenly Sword Mountain in his eyes, but he also didn't put the Northern Heavens Holy Land in his eyes.
Unscrupulous in his actions, arrogant to the point of lawlessness. This sentence was the most appropriate evaluation of Xiao Fan.
Suddenly!
"Since the two of them are the Holy Son and Holy Daughter of the Black Orchid Sect, and preparatory disciples of the Northern Heavens Holy Land, their identities aren't ordinary, and their positions are also very important. They should have a lot of good stuff on them, right? The five of you, go and strip them! " Xiao Fan pondered for a moment, then looked at Li Chu and Ye Rong, who were lying on the ground in so much pain that they couldn't speak or move, and instructed Zhao Lingyan and the other four.
"What?"
Hearing Xiao Fan's words, not only were Zhao Lingyan's group of five stunned, the surrounding people were also stunned. One by one, they opened their eyes wide and looked at Xiao Fan with gazes of disbelief.
Not only did he cripple Li Chu and Ye Rong, but he also wanted to rob them of everything. This … was not only trampling on Li Chu and Ye Rong, but he also wanted to trample them to death.
"Strip them!"
After hearing Xiao Fan's instructions, Zhao Lingyan and the other four looked at each other in dismay. All of them were a little hesitant, as they were still afraid of Li Chu and Ye Rong's status as preparatory disciples of the Northern Heavens Holy Land. They were afraid of bringing trouble to themselves and their Sects.
But!
After hesitating for a moment, the Purple Cloud Hall's Holy Son suddenly clenched his fists and was the first to rush out, pouncing towards Li Chu. The Lion's Roar Saintess also had a lot of conflict with Ye Rong. Seeing the Purple Cloud Hall's Holy Son rushing out, she also rushed out, pouncing towards Ye Rong.
The remaining Zhao Lingyan, the Southern Region's Crown Prince, and the Nine Leaf Holy Son hesitated for a moment, then steeled their hearts and rushed out without caring about anything else. They were prepared to carry out Xiao Fan's order and strip Li Chu and Ye Rong of all their valuables.
The reason why Zhao Lingyan and the other four changed their minds and started to act was because they understood a problem after going through their initial worries.
Whether or not they really did anything to Li Chu and Ye Rong, they would not be able to escape responsibility when the Northern Heavens Holy Land investigated this matter in the future.
Since that was the case, there was no difference whether they acted or not. They would be in trouble if they acted, but they would also be in trouble if they didn't act. Therefore, they might as well act directly. At least they could vent their anger and relieve the long-suppressed anger in their hearts.
Moreover, although the Northern Heavens Holy Land would investigate this matter in the future, as long as the five of them could obtain Xiao Fan's method of refining the Soul Replenishing Heavenly Pill, they would be able to make a huge contribution. Would the Northern Heavens Holy Land really care about these two Preparatory Disciples?
Therefore, after considering all aspects, it was the best choice to act on Li Chu and Ye Rong.
"This is the Black Orchid Sect's famous Autumn Water Wind Sword. Not bad, take it!" The Purple Cloud Hall's holy son directly pried open the fingers of Li Chu's favorite and most treasured sword and forcefully snatched it away. He casually handed it over to Mu Yang behind him as he spoke to the immobile Li Chu on the ground with a cold smile.
"This is the Sky Orchid Ring. Good stuff, take it!" The Southern Zhou Prince searched all over Li Chu's body and finally took out a dark bronze ring from the depths of Li Chu's chest. He handed it over to Mu Yang behind him and nodded.
"This is the Ice Spirit Killing Dagger, a treasure that can't be bought with money. Take it!" The Nine Leaf Holy Son was the most meticulous. He searched Li Chu's body from top to bottom and finally found a snow-white and transparent dagger. He said with satisfaction.
On the ground, Li Chu was powerless against all of this. He could only lie there and watch as everything he had was taken away by the Purple Cloud Hall's Holy Son and the Nine Leaf Holy Son. His teeth kept on chattering in his mouth. His expression was ferocious as if he wanted to eat the flesh and blood of the Purple Cloud Hall's Holy Son, the Southern Zhou Prince, and the Nine Leaf Holy Son.
Ye Rong was not much better off. She was searched by Zhao Lingyan and the Lion's Roar Saintess from top to bottom. All of her treasures were taken away and handed over to Mu Yang, leaving only Ye Rong on the ground. She let out an angry roar like a mother beast.
"Not bad, two fat lambs indeed!" Xiao Fan glanced at Li Chu and Ye Rong's personal belongings in Mu Yang's hands and slightly nodded with satisfaction.
At this moment, Zhao Lingyan and the others who had plundered Li Chu and Ye Rong had returned as well. They stood behind Xiao Fan once more. Afterwards, every single one of them was refreshed. Their faces were filled with comfort, and they had all resolved their boundless grievances and resentment from before.
Xiao Fan nodded towards Li Chu and Ye Rong who were lying on the ground and said: "I am in need of money right now. Thank you for coming to give me money in time. I have to say that the two of you are really good people!"
"Giving money, really good people!"
Hearing the teasing words that suddenly came out of Xiao Fan's mouth, some people in the surrounding crowd suddenly felt like laughing. However, they managed to suppress their laughter in time and did not dare to truly laugh out loud.
"We'll meet again someday, I'm leaving!"
Xiao Fan opened his mouth again and said to Li Chu and Ye Rong. With that, he no longer looked at the two on the ground and directly walked forward. He planned to use a hundred times the starting price to buy the treasures he wanted.
.....
While the people from the Black Orchid Sect had yet to come and stop Xiao Fan from having a conflict with Li Chu and Ye Rong at the Black Orchid Auction House, on the other side, the great sects of the Great Western Prefecture, including the Eternal River School, were working hard to reverse engineer the Soul Replenishing Heavenly Pill using the pill recipe given to them by Xiao Fan.
Among them, the Nine Leaf Holy Land, which was known as one of the top ten alchemy masters of the Great Western Prefecture, was the first to reverse engineer the alchemy method of the Soul Replenishing Heavenly Pill. After that, the Nine Leaf Holy Land eagerly began to refine the Soul Replenishing Heavenly Pill.
At the same time, although the great sects of the Great Western Prefecture were allies and worked together most of the time, such as resisting the Thunder Sound Sect and the Black Orchid Sect.
However, there were also many conflicts between them and they had their own spies in each other's sects. The news of the Nine Leaf Sacred Ground reversing the Soul Replenishing Heavenly Pill quickly spread to the other great sects of the Great Western Prefecture.
Then, the Sect Master of the Eternal River School, Zhao Zhiping, and the other Sect Masters of the great sects of the Great Western Prefecture came to the Nine Leaf Sacred Ground to verify the effectiveness of the Soul Replenishing Heavenly Pill refined by Master Chengfeng.
Although the Nine Leaf Sacred Lord was furious and immediately ordered a thorough investigation of all the spies in the sect, he had no choice. In the end, his face darkened and his attitude softened. He brought the Sect Master of the Eternal River School, Zhao Zhiping, and the other Sect Masters of the great sects of the Great Western Prefecture to the Nine Leaf Sacred Ground's Alchemy Hall to witness the results together.
"Fellow Sect Masters, this old man dares to say that this is the real Soul Replenishing Heavenly Pill!" Master Chengfeng had already refined the pill. He held the green pill in his hand that was no different from the Soul Replenishing Heavenly Pill that Xiao Fan had refined for Mu Yang. He stroked his white beard with pride in his eyes as he spoke to the various Sect Masters of the great sects of the Great Western Prefecture.
"Master Chengfeng is one of the ten great alchemy masters of the Great Western Prefecture. Since Master Chengfeng is so confident, this should be the Soul Replenishing Heavenly Pill!" A Sect Master of a great sect said with joy on his face.
"If it succeeds, we won't have to be so respectful to Xiao Fan anymore. We won't have to be restricted by him anymore!" Another Sect Master of a great sect said with a smile.
"We'll only know if it succeeds after we try it. Men, test the pill!" Although the Nine Leaf Sacred Lord couldn't hide the joy on his face, he calmed himself down and ordered.
Following the Nine Leaf Sacred Lord's order, an elder of the Nine Leaf Sacred Ground who was already prepared walked over to test the pill.
Just like Mu Yang, this elder from the Nine-leaf Holy Land had no choice but to utilize Blood Flight to flee for his life because he'd fallen into a dangerous situation. He'd burned 300 years of his cultivation in order to escape in the end, so it couldn't be any more suitable for him to test the pill now.
"Gulp!"
Without further ado, the elder of the Nine Leaf Holy Land swallowed the Soul Replenishing Heavenly Pill that Master Chengfeng had refined as soon as he received the pill.
