Yi Yun was completely stunned. For such a scene to suddenly appear in a young girl's Dantian, anyone who saw it would feel their hair stand on end.
Was this a soul? Or was it a ghostly object?
Yi Yun was momentarily unable to make a judgment. He had a vague feeling that the grotesque face was definitely not that simple.
Although the Jadewave Sect was weak, Dong Shaoqing knew a few experts. Be it when Dong Xiaowan sought treatment everywhere or now that she was seriously ill, no one had discovered the problem.
If Yi Yun did not have the Purple Crystal's energy vision, he would not have been able to detect the strange evil object.
"Have any alchemists seen Dong Xiaowan over the past few days?"
Yi Yun asked. Dong Shaoqing nodded. "Yes. Huyan Cang has quite a number of friends in Myriad City over the years. Young Master Yi, as you know, you opened a Yun Xin Loft near the Heaven Bestowing House. Regarding this matter, many veteran alchemists are actually just … watching … watching as a joke."
Dong Shaoqing hesitated before speaking the truth. Everything Yi Yun had done seemed to be an act of overestimating himself. Which alchemist, who had been famous for a long time, would think anything of Yi Yun?
"Therefore … after Xiaowan's accident, a few alchemists came to visit Xiaowan, saying that they wanted to check on her illness. I was anxious and out of my wits. Hoping that an alchemist might be willing to help, I allowed them to take a look. In the end, most of them came to watch as a joke. One of them even suggested that I send Xiaowan to Huyan Cang for a few days … and then …"
Dong Shaoqing could not go on. He only had one daughter.
Most warriors had many wives and concubines, but Dong Shaoqing was a devoted person. He only had one Dao partner, and after she passed away, he left behind his only daughter. She was extremely talented and was the only one Dong Shaoqing had placed all his hopes on.
Yi Yun nodded. Indeed, none of the alchemists noticed anything amiss. "Where did your daughter enter back then? How did she end up in such a disaster?"
Dong Shaoqing said, "It's a World Stone mining ground controlled by my Jadewave Sect. We discovered an ancient underground ruin that had been abandoned for an unknown period of time. Xiaowan's curiosity was piqued, so she entered it. There were quite a number of people from her sect who accompanied her. Xiaowan is very popular in the Jadewave Sect. Many senior and junior brothers fought to enter with her."
"What about these people? Have they all returned safely? "Yi Yun interjected.
"Yes … I think so …" Dong Shaoqing was originally certain, but with Yi Yun's question, his tone relaxed.
"Is it true or not?"
"This … at least I don't see any problems." Dong Shaoqing answered cautiously. Although Dong Xiaowan could not cultivate, her life did not seem to be in danger. If she had not consumed the Body Cleansing Pills, he would not have known that Dong Xiaowan had encountered such a terrifying calamity.
Yi Yun frowned and said, "I will do my best to save your daughter's life. The process is somewhat tricky, but I still have some clues. You don't have to worry. Her life is temporarily not in danger."
Although Dong Xiaowan appeared to be on the verge of losing all signs of life and would not last more than a few days, Yi Yun knew very well that once Dong Xiaowan died, the evil entity would have nowhere to hide. If it had any intelligence, it would not really kill Dong Xiaowan.
"Thank you Young Master Yi for your kindness!"
Dong Shaoqing gave a deep bow. All his hopes were placed on Yi Yun.
At this moment, a burst of laughter was heard.
"Hahahaha! Dong Shaoqing, your daughter has eaten a bogus pill and is on the brink of death. Yet, you are bowing to the person who harmed your daughter? I have seen many foolish people in my life, but I have never seen one as foolish as you! "
The person who spoke was extremely loud. Dong Shaoqing's expression sank as he turned his head to take a look. A black carriage was being pulled by four Fey Dragon Horses as it rolled over.
A young-looking man walked down from the carriage. He was none other than Huyan Cang!
Following closely behind Huyan Cang were many people.
Zuoqiu Haoyu was naturally one of them. Apart from him, there were many people dressed in alchemy robes. Among them were a few of Huyan Cang's disciples, as well as other famous alchemists in Myriad City.
Huyan Cang had many good friends in the alchemy world over the years. They were naturally here to cheer him on.
The arrival of this group of people immediately attracted the attention of many people. They naturally remembered that today was the day Yi Yun would refine the Supreme Palace Iceheart Pills!
At that moment, a gentle green beam flashed across the street. People dodged as they saw a jade-made spirit boat fly through the crowd.
Myriad City forbade flying, but there were a few people who had the privilege of flying at low altitudes. The distance above the ground was the embodiment of one's privilege.
The spirit boat landed as a middle-aged man dressed in a red robe walked down.
"It's the Medicinal Immortal Pavilion's Master Zuoqiu Bo!"
Someone recognized the person. The Medicinal Immortal Pavilion was one of the three biggest medicinal clinics in Myriad City. The Heaven Bestowing Medicinal Clinic was jointly established by a few major factions, while the Medicinal Immortal Pavilion was a private business of the Myriad Immortal Pavilion.
Although Zuoqiu Bo was a nominal employee of the Medicinal Immortal Pavilion, it was, in fact, impossible to hire him to refine pills for them. At his level, he would not appear in the Medicinal Immortal Pavilion, much less make a move. He was unlike Huyan Cang, who was permanently stationed in the Heaven Bestowing Medicinal Clinic. As long as enough money was paid, Huyan Cang could be found.
In Myriad City, Zuoqiu Bo's standing was naturally above Huyan Cang's.
"Sixth Granduncle, you are here too."
Upon seeing Zuoqiu Bo, Zuoqiu Haoyu was pleasantly surprised. Although he was a young master of the Myriad Immortal Pavilion, he was still a junior. His conflict with Yi Yun was also a conflict between juniors. It could not be raised to the level of the Myriad Immortal Pavilion.
The truly important figures of the Myriad Immortal Pavilion would not care about such trivial matters. Zuoqiu Haoyu never expected that Zuoqiu Bo would appear today. He was truly overjoyed. He was still hoping for Zuoqiu Bo's guidance in the Myriad Immortal Pavilion.
"Haoyu, I'm only passing by today. I learned that City Lord Qin is here, so I stopped to greet him," said Zuoqiu Bo lightly.
Zuoqiu Bo said lightly. In fact, he was not interested in the Supreme Palace Iceheart Pills that Yi Yun was refining. He had come because of City Lord Qin.
Just as Zuoqiu Bo said that, he saw nine dark-golden ancient beasts pulling an ancient war chariot. It rumbled through the void!
On the war chariot stood an azure-clothed middle-aged man. His aura was converged and his body shimmered with faint streams of light. This was a manifestation of nomological condensation when one's cultivation level reached a certain realm.
He was none other than City Lord Qin!
And beside City Lord Qin was a peerless beauty. Her face was veiled and she hugged a zither. She was none other than Princess White Fox.
"It's City Lord Qin. City Lord Qin is really here!"
People were alarmed. They never expected that the conflict between Yi Yun and Zuoqiu Haoyu would truly stir City Lord Qin!
