Elder Li went back with a smile from the bottom of his heart. Of course, on the surface, he looked flustered and exasperated.
In the eyes of outsiders, Elder Li came here this time to congratulate and to ask for alchemy. According to Yang Chen's consistent personality of not being at a disadvantage, coupled with the fact that the relationship between Chunyang Palace and Xuantian Sect was not very harmonious, Elder Li's performance was clearly angry after being extorted by Yang Chen.
For Elder Li, this kind of cheap performance was very simple, and it was also good for Yang Chen. His pretentiousness, on the one hand, made everyone believe that the gap between Xuantian Sect and Chunyang Palace was getting bigger and bigger. On the other hand, it was also indirectly raising the price for Yang Chen.
Representatives of other Sect were happy to see Xuantian Sect suffer a loss in the hands of Yang Chen. This kind of happy thing had happened more than once or twice in the mortal world, and each time it could make all Sect happy for a long time.
Even if the Sect had to pay a little more than usual for this, everyone also liked to see Xuantian Sect's embarrassment. And many people understood that Yang Chen, the younger generation, would not be so greedy. Although it was announced that other Sect had paid the same price as Xuantian Sect, there was always a discount every time.
The Sect got the elixir they wanted, and at the same time, they also witnessed Yang Chen really restore his Human Immortal cultivation, which was enough. The youngest sixth-grade alchemist in the spiritual world, an alchemy grandmaster with a promising future, and a good relationship with all Sect. As long as they paid a little spirit stones or medicinal materials, they could buy life-saving elixir. Was there a better result than this?
The Palace Master and other high-level members of Chunyang Palace were also curious. How many things did Yang Chen extort from Elder Li that could make the core elder of Xuantian Sect look like that?
Fortunately, Yang Chen didn't tell the truth. He didn't take out the Qiankun bag filled with the essence of the demonic beast's corpse that Elder Li directly threw to Yang Chen. He only said a price that wasn't too outrageous, but was still enough to make one feel pain.
Even so, the palace master and the others were already happy from ear to ear. For so many years, only Chunyang Palace had been able to dig out a piece of meat from the mouth of Xuantian Sect.
It had become the norm for all parties to ask for pills from Yang Chen. It was even more so after Yang Chen became a sixth-grade alchemist. No one would think there was any problem. Just the Six Revolutions Marrow Pill alone was enough to make countless people drool.
There was no longer a need for Yang Chen to do anything else. All he needed to do was spread the news and let the cultivators from the other Sect know that Yang Chen had returned. That was enough. Yang Chen didn't even think about killing demonic beasts to gain experience. He just stayed in the Sect, cultivating and concocting pills at the same time.
Compared with the liveliness of Chunyang Palace, Elder Li's return to Xuantian Sect was a bit low-key. Along the way, the accompanying disciples of the Profound Heaven Sect did not dare to speak loudly, for fear of angering Elder Li and causing disaster to the fish in the moat. In their hearts, they could not help but scold the culprit, Yang Chen.
Elder Li had perfected the next plan several times in his heart. After discussing it with Yang Chen, basically, as long as there was a problem with Hall Master Zhu, he would be exposed under the arrangement of Elder Li. Returning to Xuantian Sect, which was still in Xiping Mountain, Elder Li did not alarm others. He just met with Sect Master Wang and Hall Master Liu, and then there was no more.
Everything seemed very calm. Whether it was the situation outside or inside Xuantian Sect, it all seemed very natural. The cultivators were regaining the lost territory little by little, and Xuantian Sect was preparing to move the Sect from the Xiping Mountain Branch back to the original mountain gate. Everything was going according to plan.
Except for Elder Li, no one knew that a storm was brewing inside Xuantian Sect. Perhaps Yang Chen was also an insider, but when Elder Li planned to start, Yang Chen didn't know the specifics.
Several of Elder Li's confidants were secretly investigating the medicinal materials that Hall Master Zhu needed in the past few hundred years. As Yang Chen expected, the name of the Ice Devouring Snake appeared on Hall Master Zhu's list of medicinal materials.
As long as the pill recipe of the Questioning Inner Heart Pill was simply linked with Hall Master Zhu's list of medicinal materials, it was easy to see the relationship between the two.
The list of medicinal materials used by Hall Master Zhu, even if it was ordered by Elder Li, still took a lot of effort to get it. When the two confidants reported the difficulty of getting this list of medicinal materials to Elder Li, Elder Li completely believed that Yang Chen did not monitor Hall Master Zhu's actions.
Because of this, Elder Li once again praised Yang Chen's alchemy level. Sure enough, he was worthy of being the alchemy master with the best aptitude and the greatest potential for thousands of years. Just by relying on the target direction of a medicinal effect, he could infer so much content from the medicinal materials. His understanding of alchemy could be said to be earth-shattering.
The first part was all guessed by Yang Chen. Even Elder Li once again met Hall Master Zhu casually and asked about the progress of Hall Master Zhu's new drug research. The answer given by Hall Master Zhu was the same as Yang Chen's previous speculation.
If Elder Li didn't know very well that Yang Chen couldn't and didn't have the ability to monitor Hall Master Zhu, he would be surprised that Hall Master Zhu cooperated with Yang Chen's speculation. Now, since it was so in line with the worst guess, Hall Master Zhu's suspicion became more and more big.
Elder Li was very calm. After leaving Chunyang Palace and returning to the Sect, he behaved himself for ten years without any signs of an outburst. Not to mention anything else, just the time difference made it impossible for anyone to suspect Yang Chen.
Elder Li even personally went out and spent another ten years to personally kill the beasts. Under the protection of several Supreme Mystic Immortal elders, he went deep into the original trial ground to explore before returning to the Mysterious Heaven Sect.
As soon as he returned to the Mysterious Heaven Sect, Elder Li immediately convened a meeting with the core members of the Mysterious Heaven Sect. It happened so suddenly that everyone didn't even know why Elder Li was so anxious, and they had no clue what to discuss.
"This matter is very important, and I don't dare to make a complete judgment, so I ask Sect Master and a few others to discuss it together." Elder Li spoke very politely, but the expression on his face fully showed how serious Elder Li was at the moment.
"What exactly is the matter?" Sect Master Wang also became serious and asked in a deep voice, "Don't be anxious, speak slowly."
"I found something this time, so I specially asked a few Mystic Immortal elders to escort me to the original trial ground." Elder Li said as his eyes casually swept across the crowd. His gaze swept across Hall Master Zhu's body, not stopping at all.
"In the past, we all thought that the Zhao Family was definitely in a place that was not affected by the Demonic Calamity, but we looked all over the world and overlooked a place." Elder Li finally expressed his opinion. His gaze swept across Hall Master Zhu's wrist and turned to Sect Master Wang.
